"Oh? Gellert actually rejected Dumbledore?"

After listening to Sebastian's report on the "conversation between Grindelwald and Dumbledore", Ciel paused in throwing the dice, and his elbow accidentally hit the teacup next to him, and the cup filled with half a cup of black tea fell from the table.

"Yes, sir." Sebastian quickly picked up the teacup with exquisite patterns and put it back within Charles' reach. The whole movement was smooth and not even a drop of tea was spilled.

"Hmm..." Ciel tapped his fingers on the table, unsure of what Gellert was thinking.

Why didn't Gellert accept the invitation?

Is it because I don’t know how to face the other person, or is it because...

Do you think there is nothing much for the two of them to talk about?

Has Gellert really let go of their past friendship?

It’s not that Charles is too suspicious, but Gellert has a history of imprisoning himself “for Dumbledore”, so he has to be more careful.

"Just watch and see," Ciel hesitated for a while and then instructed Sebastian, "I don't want Gellert and Dumbledore to have any contact without my knowledge."

It means that I want him to keep an eye on the two of them.

Sebastian: ...

Perhaps you remember that in addition to my duties as a butler, I am also responsible for the Muggle studies teaching of the entire Hogwarts?

Ciel remembered, but Ciel always enjoyed causing trouble for Sebastian.

Sebastian glanced at Ciel.

Ciel raised his eyebrows provocatively: "If it were you, you should be able to do it, right?"

"Of course," Sebastian said with a forced smile. "As your butler, how can I not be able to do such a small thing?"

"No, wait..." Draco, with his hands on the chair, felt something was wrong the more he listened.

"what?"

"Let me confirm, Ciel, the Gellert you mentioned is Mr. Grindelwald, right?"

"Yes." Charles raised his hand slightly, and the dice in his hand rolled across the table with a crisp sound. "Nine points, it seems that my luck is not bad today."

"You mean Mr. Grindelwald is at Hogwarts now?"

How could Draco be in the mood to care about the game they were playing halfway? He asked with his eyes wide open in disbelief.

"Eh? Didn't I tell you?" Ciel said nonchalantly as he placed his chess piece in the correct position: "He is now using the alias Green and is the headmaster of Durmstrang."

Draco:!!!

"No, you didn't tell me," Draco muttered.

"Well you know now."

Is your tone a little too relaxed?

Is it really okay to just casually tell him something so important?

You know, even his father doesn’t know where Mr. Grindelwald is now!

Draco held back and asked the question in his mind, and then he saw a beautiful smile suddenly break out on Charles' face.

Her deep blue eyes curved into a beautiful arc, and her tone was solemn and gentle: "Of course it's because I trust Draco."

"Trust..." Draco repeated the word in a daze, and suddenly a large number of fireworks exploded in his mind.

"Yes, I trust Draco very much. I believe Draco will not let me down, right?"

"Of course!" Draco's usually pale face flushed slightly. He straightened his back and patted his chest, almost eager to show his loyalty to Charles. "Don't worry, Charles, I will never tell this news to anyone else!"

"Not even my father!"

"If that's the case, it's a great help."

Ah, the young master is coaxing the simple-minded human cub again...

Sebastian's dark red eyes fell on Ciel's bright smiling face, paused for a moment and then moved to the little platinum noble who was confused by Ciel's words.

The young master has a really bad temper.

Just by paying a piece of news that didn't have to be kept secret, the future head of the Malfoy family was fooled.

After so many years, the young master's ability to deceive people has not deteriorated at all...

A smile flashed in Sebastian's eyes, and seeing that Ciel was in a good mood, he coughed dryly.

"Master."

"what happened?"

"Perhaps you should have heard that Hogwarts will hold a Christmas ball due to the Triwizard Tournament."

Ciel instantly realized Sebastian's sinister intentions, and the smile on his face visibly stiffened.

"What does this have to do with me?"

Although he had decided to stay at Hogwarts during this holiday, it shouldn't matter if he didn't attend the ball, right?

"Master," Sebastian shook his head in disapproval. "The Phantomhive family has been highly respected for hundreds of years. As a member of the Phantomhive family, you don't want to bring shame to the family, do you?"

Ciel: “…”

After all, in the wizarding world, even if I don’t dance, I should still…

"Perhaps you still remember that many of your classmates come from ordinary families." Sebastian stopped Charles from arguing in time.

"You have received an elite education since childhood. If you can't even dance well, you will be laughed at."

A vein popped up on Charles's forehead, and he raised his hand to press his forehead. "I know. I'll go to the ball."

"But, there's no need for last-minute tutoring, right?"

Sebastian had been bothering him for a long time in order for him to learn dancing. With his current level, he should have no problem handling the school dances.

"How can that be possible?" Sebastian took out a pair of glasses from somewhere and put them on his nose. "Your negative attitude is extremely unacceptable."

"Since I have decided to participate, I must do my best."

Charles: No, I don't think it's necessary.

After Sebastian finished speaking, he turned his head and looked at Draco, who was slowly moving toward the outside against the wall.

"Master Malfoy, where are you going?"

Draco, who had been tiptoeing, stood up straight upon hearing this. He turned around and stammered, "I, I'll make room for you?"

"Since you have something important to do, I won't bother you here."

I'm so sensible, just let me go!

Otherwise it would be really embarrassing to stay in the room and watch you dance!

Yes, Draco had already agreed that Sebastian would personally teach Ciel how to dance.

Sebastian stretched out his fingers to push his glasses up on his nose: "Mr. Malfoy hopes that you will study with me."

Draco:!!!
