Hogwarts: From Silent to Dark Lord

Chapter 176: A Conversation with Grindelwald!!

“But this old man once covered the sky with one hand in the wizarding world, and his words and deeds could incite countless wizards, even the gods in the eyes of those wizards.”

Jamie said with a smile.

“This old man almost provoked a war between wizards and Muggles, and although he lost in the end, this act of daring to challenge the International Secrets Act continues to inspire us juniors!”

Jamie walked over to a small old table and took out a bottle of wine and two wine glasses from his pocket, and he poured wine into each of the two wine glasses.

“Mr. Grindelwald, do you need a little more, you probably haven’t touched alcohol since you were locked up in this tower.”

Jamie picked up two wine glasses, walked over to Grindelwald, and handed him the one in his right hand.

Grindelwald frowned slightly, but took the glass of wine, he was now fearless, whether it was death or something else.

“Don’t talk about the previous things, what did you come to me for, if you want something from me, then I’m afraid you will be disappointed, I have nothing now.”

Grindelwald took a sip of wine and said lightly.

“No, for me, anything is just something outside the body, including the Three Hallows of Death that you were looking for when you were young.”

“For a wizard, magic, the mind is the most important, Mr. Grindelwald, you are one of the few top minds in the wizarding world, and you are also a wizard with vision.”

“The current wizarding world is full of rotten, outdated ideas, wizards are content with the status quo, it needs to undergo a change, it needs to go through a baptism, it needs to go through a rebirth.”

Jamie said with a smile and lifted the hood on his head, revealing his face.

When Grindelwald looked at Jamie’s face, he was suddenly stunned.

“Your looks! Did you use Transfiguration? ”

Grindelwald asked, too much like him when he was young, but he remembered that he had left no descendants.

“No, this is what I am, Mr. Grindelwald, you seem surprised, and it’s no wonder, because this is what you looked like when you were young, and I have seen pictures of you when you were young.”

“However, I should be more handsome than you were when you were younger, and even Professor Dumbledore was stunned when he first saw me.”

“I’m sure you should know why Professor Dumbledore was stunned.”

Jamie said with a smile.

“Dumbledore!”

Grindelwald whispered, and the whole person seemed to be caught in memories.

“You know a lot of things? Including between me and Dumbledore? ”

After a while, Grindelwald asked aloud.

“I was born in Godric’s Hollow, and I think you should know about it, after all, your aunt, Lady Bakilda Bagshot, lives there, and I know very well what happened between you and Professor Dumbledore.”

“Mr. Grindelwald, this is my meeting gift to you, I hope you like Jamie pulling out a photo of Dumbledore and Dumbledore when he was young.”

Grindelwald, the two stood together, both smiling very brightly.

Grindelwald took the photo, looked stunned for a moment, and rubbed the two youths in the photo with his hands.

“Say, what exactly is your purpose?”

Grindelwald carefully held that kind of photo, as if holding some treasure, looked at Jamie, and said lightly.

“Actually, my purpose is similar to yours, I want to break the International Secrecy Act, let wizards rule the world, and let wizards be above Muggles.”

“Just like the plan you and Professor Dumbledore made when they were younger.”

Jamie said.

“Huh! I’m already old and can’t help you, you go. ”

Grindelwald sneered, seemingly disdainful of what Jamie said.

“Mr. Grindelwald, do you think my idea is naïve, because you think this plan will not succeed, and you are that example.”

Not angry, Jamie said.

“Isn’t it?”

“I can see that you are a talented little wizard, very similar to when I was younger, but that plan is not working, I have failed, do you still want to follow my old path?”

Grindelwald shook his head slightly and said.

“Sooner or later, the International Secrecy Act will be broken, Muggle technology is developing day by day, and when the era of information globalization arrives, wizards will one day be exposed.”

“It’s 1992, Muggle technology is advancing at a rapid pace, and when one day, a Muggle discovers a wizard, and in a blink of an eye the news will spread throughout the world, can wizards still hide?”

Jamie said he knows how terrifying the era of information globalization is, and a message can spread tens or even hundreds of thousands in a blink of an eye.

At that time, wizards will have nothing to hide, can wizards still erase the memories of hundreds of thousands or even millions of Muggles?

“You also have the ability to prophesy, and you foresee the future?”

Grindelwald looked at Jamie and asked in a deep voice.

Back then, he had foreseen a distant future, Muggle guns, planes, tanks, and the terrible nuclear bomb, and he thought that one day, Muggles would turn those weapons on wizards.

That’s why he planned to start a war between wizards and Muggles and start first, but unfortunately failed in the end, because there were too many people who objected.

“No, I don’t have the ability to prophesy, I’m not like you, Mr. Grindelwald, who was born with the ability to prophesy, but I just know that this will happen in the future…”

“In fact, the International Secrecy Act protects not Muggles at all, but us wizards, but unfortunately, Muggles’ technology is constantly improving, but wizards are still content with the status quo.”

“If this continues, wizards will one day become Muggles’ experiments, so I think wizards must be prepared before the International Secrecy Act is broken.”

Jamie said.

“Wizards can’t win Muggles, Muggle weapons are terrible, and I’m old and don’t have the ambitions I had when I was young.”

Grindelwald shook his head and said.

“An ancient hero in the ancient country of the East once had a poem: Lao Ji is determined to be thousands of miles. The martyrs are in their twilight years, and their hearts are strong. ”

“It means that although the old Maxima crouches beside the manger, his ambition is still to gallop thousands of miles; Even in the old age of Top Gun, the spirit of striving for progress never stops. ”

“Mr. Grindelwald, you are two years younger than Professor Dumbledore, and Professor Dumbledore is still shining in the wizarding world, can’t you? You lost to him once, don’t you want to win it back? ”

“Besides, I don’t think that wizards must rely on force and war to rule the world.”

“A military expert in the ancient country of the East once said: “Go to the army to plot, then cut the army, then cut the army, and then attack the city.”

“This means that the best way to defeat the enemy is to use strategy, then diplomacy to defeat the enemy, then to meet the enemy, and the last way is to actively attack the enemy’s home.”

Jamie talked.

“Oh? Interestingly, it seems that you know the culture of that ancient oriental country very well, it is an ancient and mysterious continent, even I have never set foot there. ”

Grindelwald said.

“That country has a history of thousands of years, it is the only one among the four ancient countries that has not broken its inheritance, and the ancestors of that continent are very wise, it can be said that the people there developed civilization.”

“People on this side of Europe still live a life of drinking blood.”

“Mr. Grindelwald, in fact, if you could read more books from ancient oriental countries, maybe you might not fail back then.”

Jamie said.

“It seems that you have great respect for that country, maybe I should accept your suggestion and read more books from that country.”

Grindelwald said he was indeed a little moved.

“Mr. Grindelwald, I think you should come out again now, the time is about to enter the 21st century, the whole world will also change greatly, the future may be more exciting, you really want to stay here and die alone?”
