The Charles Becomes a Wizard

Although he was moved by what Ciel said, Gellert did not make a decision immediately.

After all, it concerns his subordinates, subordinates who are still loyal to him after many years. Perhaps this time he should listen to their opinions and hold a small meeting before making a decision.

In response to this, the attitude of most of Gellert's loyal subordinates was: Ahhhhhh, Mr. Grindelwald, you finally figured it out!

Isn't it just doing business with the Muggles that we looked down upon before? Isn't it just cooperation?

Row!

As long as you don't plan to find a new place to imprison yourself, let them do whatever they want!

No one knew how excited they were when they saw the black curtain rising again after nearly half a century.

The king who made them willing to sacrifice everything finally set foot on his journey again. And they are still willing to follow him at all times, just like many years ago, taking his will as the criterion.

As for the small number of people who had developed their own little thoughts because of Gellert's years of self-imprisonment, they began to feel frightened and started to make more small moves in private.

The news that Gellert Grindelwald was gathering his men in England spread, and the already complicated international situation became even more turbulent.

Upon hearing the news, Dumbledore accidentally broke the blank photo frame that had been placed on the table.

The old man with white hair and beard looked at the debris on the ground with a lonely expression.

"Gellert, after all these years, you still haven't given up your ambitions? What do you want to do?"

After a long time, a low whisper was heard from the principal's office.

But none of this has anything to do with Charles.

"Mr. Grindelwald, do you know how many people are looking for you outside right now?" Ciel stroked his forehead with one hand and said helplessly to Gellert, who wanted to go to Diagon Alley with him to buy school supplies.

It’s not that Gellert can’t go, but, at least he should hide his true appearance, right?

"Don't worry, the so-called wanted warrant will be dealt with soon." Gellert didn't think he needed to change his appearance.

He hasn't appeared in public for many years. The old guys in the UK who know him probably wouldn't choose to go to Diagon Alley when there are so many people. Even if they went, they probably wouldn't recognize his current appearance.

It's rare for a person who has been calm for most of his life to think so willfully.

Since persuasion was fruitless, Charles simply gave up.

Even if he was found in his house, what would happen? He was still young, so he could just say he was forced. After all, who didn't know that Gellert Grindelwald hated Muggles?

There is nothing shameful about a little Muggle wizard who is not even in the second year succumbing to the coercion of the great Mr. Grindelwald.

......

Diagon Alley.

"So, can you tell me what you did to my fireplace?" Charles asked through gritted teeth.

"Oh, don't worry, it's just connecting to the Floo Network. It's more convenient this way, isn't it?" Gellert waved his hand casually and then turned his gaze to the crowded crowd.

Is this a question of convenience? Did you get permission to renovate someone else's home?

"You knew that too?" Ciel looked at Sebastian who had just stepped out of the flames.

"Yes," Sebastian nodded, "Master Vincent agreed to this."

Ciel: ...

Charles squeezed out a sentence from between his teeth: "That's good..."

"Hey, Charles, this method is so interesting!" Eric, who followed him out of the fireplace, hung himself on Charles' shoulders excitedly.

Ciel's body swayed, then was held by Sebastian.

"What do you want to buy first?" Gellert held Ciel's list of books and curled his lips in disdain. "The textbooks at Hogwarts haven't changed in all these years?"

"No, wait, what is this book for Defense Against the Dark Arts? A novel?"

Who would give a serious textbook such an exaggerated name?

Just then a family standing in front of a nearby fireplace started to quarrel.

"Oh no, Harry called the wrong name!" shouted the chubby red-haired woman.

Somehow, even though she was someone he had never met before, her voice sounded familiar to Ciel.

"Howler letter." Sebastian reminded.

So, that was the legendary Weasley family? Charles looked carefully and found Ron Weasley, who always followed Harry, among the group of red-haired people.

"What should we do?" asked the middle-aged man with a tired look.

"Arthur, let's go to Flourish and Blotts to wait for you. You can go to Knockturn Alley to look for him. That place is too dangerous for a young wizard."

After that, the Weasleys left separately.

Watching them leave, Ciel couldn't help but ask, "Do they still have gold galleons to buy new books?"

What do the lawyers of the Phantomhive family do?

"Maybe someone else is helping." Sebastian glanced meaningfully in Gellert's direction.

Charles understood that it must be Dumbledore's doing, but he didn't know where the money to help the Weasley family came from.

"What is Knockturn Alley?" asked Eric, who was still hanging on Charles.

"It's a gathering place for dark wizards." Gellert answered him, "It's equivalent to the black market in your Muggle world. There are no laws or moral constraints there, and you can buy a lot of prohibited items there."

"Charles!" Eric's eyes lit up.

"No, I won't go. You can't do that," Charles said coldly.

"Go ahead, I'm really curious!" Eric twisted his body like a twist.

"You also heard that the place is very dangerous." Charles tried to take the man off, but he failed.

"What does it matter? It's rare that Mr. Grindelwald and Sebastian are here. They will definitely be able to protect us!"
