Mysterious Walker at Hogwarts

This is very strange. According to his mother, his biological father is at most the same age as Snape, and Grindelwald was imprisoned here half a century ago. There should be no intersection between the two. right.

"You seem to have Eastern ancestry, is it from your mother, or..."

"Coming from my biological father, my mother is a native Londoner."

"That's right." Grindelwald smiled while stroking his hands, "Your grandfather and I should be old acquaintances."

"My grandfather?" Dean almost bit his tongue. No one had ever mentioned it to him, and he never thought about it that far.

He hasn't even investigated his biological father, let alone his grandfather.

"Leonard Xiao, an interesting guy, used to be my right-hand man. No wonder my wand chose you." Grindelwald smiled happily, feeling quite relieved that an old friend would have a future.

At the same time, the system began to gain a sense of presence again, and a side mission appeared in the "Serial Mission: Mystery of Life Experience" that had not progressed for a long time.

“Side Quest: The Story of Leona Shaw.

You learned information about your grandfather, Leona Shaw, from Grindelwald. He should be a man with stories.Exploring his story will help you uncover the secrets of his life experience and find ways to get more information.

Reward: 3 skill points, new clues about life experience, and a random skill from Grindelwald. "

Dean looked a little silly looking at the mission description, investigating his grandfather's information, extracting Grindelwald's skills... It was determined that this system was not serious, but he liked it.

"Can you tell me about my grandfather?" Dean asked impatiently.

"Not now, time is tight, and we have more important things to do." Grindelwald declined politely.

"Okay." Dean was slightly disappointed.

"I noticed that you seem to know something about my relationship with that old friend?" Grindelwald's sudden question made Dean a little confused.

"That pair of woolen socks," Grindelwald prompted.

Dean immediately realized something was wrong and that if he didn't know the inside story, he shouldn't have gotten the wool socks. His first reaction was to pass it on to Dumbledore.

"I know more or less."

"I don't think that old friend would tell anyone else these things." Grindelwald looked a little confused.

"I know this because of an accident. I have already met Aberforth Dumbledore and Master Newt." Dean quickly pulled out two shields.

"The two of them..." Grindelwald probably never dreamed that these two people would talk to others about the secret between him and Dumbledore; in fact, these two people were innocent and took the blame.

"Mr. Grindelwald..."

"I think you should call me teacher." Grindelwald corrected.

Dean hesitated for a moment and then changed his mind: "Okay, teacher. I don't understand why you gave up the blackthorn wand in the first place?"

"Quite simply, I got a more powerful wand."

"The Elder Wand, one of the Deathly Hallows?"

"They even told you this? It seems I should have a good talk with them!"

"Teacher, I feel that the Elder Wand is not the real reason why you gave up the blackthorn wand." Dean said quickly.

If Grindelwald was so angry that he came out to cause trouble for Aberforth and Newt, then he would be truly guilty.

Grindelwald looked at Dean in surprise. Perhaps for the first time in a real sense, he felt that the heir he had chosen was not simple.

"As you can see, my wandless spell-casting skills are actually superb. No matter what kind of wand, it doesn't mean much to me..."

"Teacher, you were less than 20 years old when you gave up the blackthorn wand. Your wandless spellcasting skills were definitely not that strong at that time." Dean exhorted.

The reason why he suddenly became aggressive was because the system gave a prompt that the next link of the "Mission Series: The Heir of Grindelwald" that had not been started for a long time finally appeared.

It turned out that although the main part of the reward had been given, he had not yet met the conditions to start the next step: to truly understand the secret of the blackthorn wand.

After seeing the system prompts, Dean realized that the "fixed-point teleportation" solidified on the blackthorn wand was just an appearance. I am afraid that the reason why the blackthorn wand was abandoned by Grindelwald was the real secret.

Grindelwald sighed: "I hope you don't regret it. In fact, I don't want to do this."

Dean immediately became alert. Did Grindelwald want to teach him a lesson for this "little thing"?

"Don't be so nervous." Grindelwald couldn't help laughing when he saw Dean suddenly becoming wary: "I don't want to lose the heir I finally found so easily."

Dean said nothing, his suspicions would not be dismissed so easily.

"It's a small price to pay to know the real reason why I gave up my blackthorn wand, but we can talk about it later - now give me that wand," Grindelwald said.

Dean handed the blackthorn wand to Grindelwald without any hesitation.

The moment the blackthorn wand returned to Grindelwald's hand, Dean felt the joy from his heart. Dean never thought that this kind of joy of reunion after a long separation would happen between a wizard and a wand.

Grindelwald stroked the blackthorn wand with a complicated expression. He must also feel the joy of the wand.

After several minutes, Grindelwald said hoarsely: "I did something wrong with this wand, which cost me my best... friend."

"Are you referring to Ariana's death?" Dean asked softly.

"Aberforth told you?" Grindelwald was not surprised this time.

"Teacher, there was a scuffle between the three of you. It's not certain that the curse that killed Ariana was cast by you." Dean reminded.

"It's not important," Grindelwald said. "You know what I mean."

"It may not be important to you three, but it is not fair to the blackthorn wand. If the spell it emitted did not cause Ariana's death, then why would you abandon it because of this?" An asked.

At that moment, he suddenly realized that the magic wand was alive.

"Is that so?" Grindelwald said softly. Although his tone was questioning, Dean heard that he agreed with this view.

The blackthorn wand trembled slightly, as if expressing its grievances to Grindelwald.

"Okay, I apologize to you. I really shouldn't be angry with you." After Grindelwald finished speaking, the blackthorn wand exuded intoxicating and powerful magic.

The system prompts that the "Fixed-point Teleportation: Nurmengard" bound to it has evolved into a complete form - the prompt in the system's original label "Note: This skill will consume a lot of magic power, please use it with caution." disappeared and was replaced by "It can be used without spending magic power. It is exclusive to the wand owner."

This means that the wand owner can use fixed-point teleportation to and from Nurmengard at any time.
