The Charles Becomes a Wizard
Chapter 48 The Philosopher's Stone...
This fantastic gem that has the power to grant immortality was obtained at the cost of the blood and suffering of countless humans.
The strong evil thoughts attached to the Philosopher's Stone made even Sebastian look at it differently.
Humans are greedy and cowardly creatures, and their ruthlessness when it comes to slaughtering their own kind is always unexpected.
The evil demons used to like to play with their prey before eating, watching them cocoon themselves and struggle to survive. Although their performance when they finally found that their hopes were shattered was different, it still provided a lot of fun for the demons, and occasionally they might encounter special surprises.
The air in the room fell into dead silence.
"Oh my," the demon gently pressed Charles' shoulders with his large hands. Feeling the slight tremor coming from his palms, a satisfied smile appeared on his face: "Master, are you scared?"
"...Let go." A slightly dry voice sounded.
"Master?"
"I told you to let go!" Charles shook Sebastian's hand away.
His face was pale, and his body was still shaking unconsciously, like a puppy drenched by rain. However, there were still two flames burning in his deep blue eyes, as if nothing in the world could make him surrender.
He pursed his lips stubbornly, took two steps back, and threw the Philosopher's Stone in his hand into Sebastian's arms: "It's so dirty, this kind of thing..."
"It's so dirty."
Ciel closed his eyes and took a deep breath, then added slowly, "Keep it safe and send it directly to Malfoy after the transaction is completed. Don't let me see it again."
Sebastian was stunned for a moment, then put the Philosopher's Stone into his pocket. "Yes, Master."
"Go get some hot water. I want to take a shower." He didn't know if it was an illusion, but after knowing the truth, Charles always felt that the magic stone was filled with a disgusting smell of blood. The blood that would never dry up seemed to have spread through his fingertips to his body.
Before getting into the bathtub, Ciel scrubbed his hands repeatedly. If Sebastian hadn't stopped him forcibly, he would have almost scratched off a layer of skin.
After taking a shower, Charles returned to his usual cool and silent self. He sat on a chair wrapped in his bathrobe, letting Sebastian wipe his hair with a large bath towel.
Just when Sebastian thought he was sulking and didn't want to talk to him, Ciel spoke up.
"As I recall, Nicolas Flamel, the creator of the Philosopher's Stone, was a friend of Dumbledore, right?"
"Yes, it is said that the two have a very good relationship."
After a long silence, Charles asked again: "So, do you think Dumbledore knows how the Philosopher's Stone was made?"
Before Sebastian could answer, he muttered to himself, "How could he not know? He is a knowledgeable white wizard who has defeated two Dark Lords!"
After Charles calmed down, he thought about it carefully. It was almost impossible to kill a large number of people quickly and inconspicuously in the wizarding world. The total number of wizards was not large, and Nicolas Flamel would definitely be discovered if he took action.
Well, there was only the Muggle world, and the easiest and quickest way was war.
The huge casualties reported by official data in the recent war are shocking, but that is not all...
If, he meant if, the lives of some of the people who died in that war really turned into a stone silently...
Charles felt a chill running up his spine.
"When Mr. Dumbledore was young, he seemed to have a close relationship with the Dark Lord of Germany. Later, for some unknown reason, the two of them suddenly fell out." Sebastian added fuel to his anger.
It was Germany that initiated the war...
There were too many coincidences, and Charles was so angry that he began to tremble all over. In Charles' opinion, Dumbledore, who was able to borrow such a precious thing as the Philosopher's Stone from Nicolas Flamel, was not innocent, regardless of whether he participated in the making of the Philosopher's Stone or not.
He usually acts compassionately and shows his friendly attitude towards Muggles everywhere, but in fact, he never regards these "Muggles" as his own kind. He is obviously able to defeat the two Dark Lords who are stirring up trouble in the wizarding world, but he coldly watches his good friend use the lives of many ordinary people to make a broken stone!
Of course, Dumbledore may have advised against it, or he may not have agreed with Nicolas Flamel's actions. But judging by deeds rather than intentions, the fact is that the Philosopher's Stone does exist, and Dumbledore used it as a tool to teach the Savior.
A feeling of air was stuck in his chest, unable to go up or down. His neatly trimmed nails dug deep into his palms, and the slight sting brought Charles back to his senses.
"They fell out?" asked Charles.
"Yes," Sebastian nodded, "It is said that the two had a private duel that year. After the duel failed, the first Dark Lord imprisoned himself in Nurmengard and has not set foot out since then."
"Where are his men?"
"Gellert Grindelwald has an organization called the Witch Party under his command. Back then, the members of the Witch Party controlled almost all the power in the German wizarding world. However, since Gellert Grindelwald was defeated, the organization has completely disappeared. This was one of the requirements put forward by Mr. Dumbledore before the duel between the two."
“Are they really that obedient?” Charles didn’t believe that people who had seen the scenery from a high place would be willing to be mediocre. Even if they were willing to obey the orders of their “king” forever, would the families behind them agree?
"There have indeed been a few small-scale riots." Sebastian folded the towel in his hand, "The German wizarding world has not been peaceful in recent years."
"I want to meet him." Ciel said with a messy head of hair, "I want to meet Gellert Grindelwald."
The Germans are indeed trustworthy, but it is a bit too much to imprison oneself for so many years just because of a private duel...
Charles felt that there might be something unknown here. He wanted to meet the man in person. Maybe he could find out some unknown information about Dumbledore from him.
Although he realized that he was taking his anger out on others, Charles had a very bad impression of Dumbledore at the moment. He just wanted to make trouble for him!
"Okay, young master, I'll take note." Sebastian took a comb and gently combed his hair. "It's getting late now, you should go to bed."
Charles covered his mouth and yawned, then said vaguely, "Draco should still be in the lounge and afraid to come back. Go call him back. Be careful and don't scare him again."
"Don't worry, Master."
