International students at Hogwarts

Chapter 14 Living with Grindelwald

Dumbledore raised his eyebrows, "What kind of remarks actually amuse you?"

"Economics, Muggle economics. And this kid's talent for magic spells is extraordinary. He actually blocked my first holding spell." Grindelwald didn't answer Dumbledore's question directly, and he walked into the room , found an armchair next to the fire and sat down, then picked up a few sausages with baking tongs from the small table next to it, and grilled them on the fire.

"Is that so? You still didn't say why you let Lu Ren know about this matter - only you and I knew about it in the entire wizarding world before." Dumbledore didn't get entangled in the so-called Muggle economics, he was willing to let Grindelwald know about it. Lu Ren's behavior of coming here is even more concerned.

"It's not a big problem. It can be solved with a Forgetting Curse. I'm very optimistic about this child. This child has great potential—maybe he can solve the problems that our generation can't solve." Grindelwald concentrated Flipping the sausage, he replied casually.

"This evaluation is very high. This child does have extraordinary talent." Dumbledore replied after a moment of silence.

Lu Ren blushed when he heard that: I never thought that the two strongest wizards in the world would speak so highly of me!

Grindelwald suddenly turned his face to Lu Ren, "Young boy, are you curious about the duel in 1945?"

Before Lu Ren could respond, Grindelwald began to chatter endlessly: "I'm usually stronger than Albus, but in the duel that day, I was slightly inferior and fell behind. Maybe I didn't even notice it. , or I don’t want to admit it, my heart was already messed up that day, and I actually didn’t want to win.

I have the same prophecy ability as you, and in my prophecy, I see an extremely terrifying future.To make matters worse, after the war, I found that I actually underestimated the abilities of Muggles.It's just an inconspicuous bug, but it's so terrifying.

Wizards, are out of touch with the times.No, it should be said that Muggles are developing too fast!My reform failed, not only did not save the wizards, but also caused the wizards to split into two parts and attack each other-this almost ruined the last vitality and essence of the magic world.I didn't realize until the end that I wasn't the one who could change the wizarding world, and neither was Albus - but at least he could be the paper-maker and keep this mess going. "

The sausage was already grilled to the point of oil, and the fat oozed from the surface of the sausage, dripping onto the charcoal fire and crackling, the room was silent, only the sound of the fat bursting.

"Albus and I both failed, but one day, there will be a young man who can fulfill our long-cherished wish. A person who understands the magic world and the non-magic world, has outstanding magical talent and enough courage !"

Albus, you know that it is not your power that really imprisoned me in this tower, but a greater good!

Before, for the stability of the magic world, I chose self-imprisonment.Now, I want to do something more!My prophecy is becoming reality little by little. Muggles' weapons are getting stronger and stronger, and their exploration capabilities are increasing day by day, while the Ministry of Magic is becoming more and more weak, rigid, rigid, and incompetent.During the Wizarding Wars, Voldemort would not survive more than three months!And you let him wreak havoc for so many years!What's even more tragic is that this person who inherited the name of the Dark Lord didn't come up with a set of programmatic ideas until he was defeated!

I am desperate.But fortunately I met this child, we still have time, the balance between the non-magic world and the magic world has not been broken, and we still have the last chance. " Grindelwald said seriously.

What Grindelwald didn't say was that he hoped that Dumbledore could guide this young man well, not let him make the same mistakes, and ensure that this young man can continue the wizarding civilization.

"Hold out your hand," Grindelwald said as he removed the sausage from the fire and placed it on a silver tray, and then he said to Lu Ren, "You can choose to form an unbreakable bond with the two of us—Albus and I." You can also choose to forget what happened today, the choice is yours. But if you make the oath, you are destined to embark on a difficult road. Have you heard of the ancient magic of the unbreakable oath?"

"I've heard of it." Lu Ren replied, "It's just that the usage scene is slightly different from now..." He didn't dare to say this sentence, he could only complain secretly in his heart.

"Okay, Albus, please be the witness of the oath. Child, I hope that you will not be an enemy of the wizarding world in the future, do your best to maintain the continuation of the civilization of the wizarding world, and find a way for the future of the wizarding world. This is Do you accept the oath?" Grindelwald stared at Lu Ren with his hawk-like eyes, and then stated his conditions.

"I accept responsibility. What good can I do?"

"Everything between me and Albus!"

"Okay, I will."

Grindelwald stretched out his hand, Lu Ren held it firmly, Dumbledore drew out his Elder Wand, and put the wand between Grindelwald and Lu Ren's clasped hands.

"I, Lu Ren, promise that I will not be an enemy of the magic world. I will do my best to maintain the continuation of the magic world's civilization and find a way for the future of the magic world."

After making the promise, a tongue of flame spewed out from the tip of the wand, wrapped around Lu Ren's hand, and gradually solidified into a symbol of three drawn lines - a big circle with no seal inside, and a circle that was one size smaller inside, and the center of the small circle. draws a straight line.

The mark is like a flame chain, coiled around Lu Ren's forearm, almost exactly the same as the command spell in Fate.

"At this time tomorrow, the mark will disappear automatically, and it will only appear if you try to trigger it." Dumbledore explained from the side.

'That's fine, otherwise it would be troublesome to wear such a tattoo. ' Lu Ren thought in his heart. "Can I go back to Hogwarts?" Lu Ren asked Dumbledore and the two of them. Now that the matter is over and the burden of the wizarding world has been lifted, can I go back to school first?

"No, you don't have to go back to school for the time being." Grindelwald grinned, "I think you can spend a few weeks with me, just to help me out of boredom. Dumbledore, what do you think?"

Dumbledore took a deep look at Grindelwald, and then left the room alone without saying a word.With a loud phoenix cry, Dumbledore left the castle.

Grindelwald grins, picks up a sausage with a fork, and conjures up a plate of bread, some jam, and even a comic book!
That manga is still JoJo's Bizarre Adventure!
