Hogwarts: The Wizarding World's First Capitalist

Dumbledore did not continue speaking because he saw the dazzling stars.

That is Grindelwald's heterochromatic eye, and it is also the source of magic that allows the Grindelwald family to meet the future. That heterochromatic eye is like a dazzling star in the night sky, so deep that it seems to hide endless mysteries.

When light shines on it, it refracts a strange and fascinating light, like a mysterious signal coming from the depths of the universe.

The surrounding irises are like delicate silk, gently encircling the bright pupils and adding a bit of charming charm.

Even though the light in the room was a little dim, this strange eye exuded an irresistible magic that made people intoxicated, as if time had stopped at this moment, just to appreciate this unique beauty for a little longer.

Anyone who sees this pupil for the first time will be fascinated by its owner.

On the other hand, when Dumbledore was stunned, Grindelwald was also stunned. He had forgotten how long it had been since he was so close to his beloved.

So much so that when I saw those sea-blue eyes, I couldn't help but be stunned for a few seconds.

When you gaze at another person with love, perhaps love is also gazing at you.

"His eyes are more like yours."

Grindelwald broke the silence with a smile, then pointed to his own eye, gave a meaningful smile, and slowly backed away.

He smiled at Dumbledore, with a hint of playful scrutiny in his eyes.

"But you don't know him that well, or maybe you already know the answer but just don't want to admit it."

"How could a magic that has failed for nearly half a century suddenly succeed? It's a product created by your genes and mine."

"Why do we have ideas that are ahead of our time? Al, you are the only smart person I am willing to admit in this world."

"You can't possibly not know that the soul in that body is not our child at all."

Grindelwald's voice was not loud, but the information he released was enough to make Carl or anyone else feel their scalp tingling the moment they heard it.

Dumbledore was no exception. He stared at the other person with wide eyes, with an extremely complicated expression on his face, including shock, helplessness, and a hint of disbelief.

He opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but suddenly seemed to remember something and questioned Grindelwald with a serious face.

"You deceived the child. You used the magic of foreseeing the future. You must have seen something. Tell me, what will be the outcome of this matter?"

Hearing this, Grindelwald had no intention of hiding anything. He still kept smiling and nodded slightly in acknowledgement.

"Yes, I did cheat in this matter, but please allow me to conceal everything I saw, both from you and the child."

"It never matters what the future holds, whether it is good or bad. All we can do is embrace a brave heart and calmly welcome its arrival."

"That's easy for you to say." Dumbledore began to get excited, and his face, which had been shaved off and slightly trimmed, began to look hideous and terrifying.

"It's only because you know the answer that you can say such light words. I now ask you to tell me everything you know."

"I don't care where the soul in that body came from. I only know that it is my child, one of the few relatives I have in this world."

"Although that little bastard was overbearing, disobedient, very rebellious and annoying, I was very happy during the few short years I spent with him. I felt a warmth I had never felt before."

"And what right do you have to say such irresponsible words? You were the one who was most willing to abuse this kind of magic in the past."

“So I paid a huge price!!!”

A deafening roar suddenly rose from the ground. Grindelwald stared at Dumbledore with a red face and a helpless smile on his face.

"Forty-six years, almost a day and a night, this is the price of peeking into the future."

"The future is like the sand in your hand. The tighter you hold it, the faster it will slip away. Some people are pessimistic about the future because of this."

"In fact, there is no need to do that, because no matter how the sand flies away from your hands, there will always be some of it stuck between your fingers. Perhaps that is what we should cherish."

Having said that, Grindelwald took a few deep breaths to calm himself down, then turned around and continued walking towards the kitchen, just as the two of them passed by each other.

The mischievous old man patted Dumbledore's shoulder gently, then pointed at the door with a sly smile.

"Actually, what I just said was just what the child asked me to say to you. I did see the future, but that future was too simple. It was the moment when our wedding was about to take place."

"That child will show up at that gate as promised, that's all."

"Really?" Dumbledore looked at Grindelwald with some grievance.

"Really!!" Grindelwald just smiled and nodded.

"Don't lie to me."

"When have I ever lied to you?"

"You've lied to me my whole life."

"I'm telling the truth this time!!"

-------------------------------------

Time flies, and the day of the official performance has finally arrived. The entire Hogwarts has been waiting for this day for a long time, and the students have cooperated with each other many times.

As a result, they even abandoned the barriers between colleges. The four major colleges sent student representatives to hold a simple meeting, and finally reached an agreement to give full play to the strengths of each college.

Strive to make this performance the most perfect one.

So in today's auditorium, a strange scene that has never happened before is taking place in an orderly manner.

Gryffindor students, dressed in red and gold robes, rode on broomsticks and were busy hanging huge banners and flags.

These huge banners and flags were all produced by students from Gryffindor College. Although they are not very fine, their huge size is in line with the aesthetic pursued by Gryffindor students.

The students of Hufflepuff House were responsible for setting the stage background.

After several rounds of rehearsals, students from the four colleges agreed that those students who were unable to participate in the performance would act as fake trees and scene props.

It was really too stupid, so the Hufflepuff badgers urgently cultivated a batch of special magical plants.

They decorated the stage with green plants and flowers to create a natural and beautiful scene. They carefully placed each plant to ensure that every corner of the stage was full of life and vitality.

These plants do not require sunlight or water, and can bloom for 24 hours with the support of magic.
