After Snape left, Dumbledore stood alone in the headmaster's office at Hogwarts, staring blankly at the letter from Newt Scamander on the table, wondering what he was thinking.

It was not until a long time later that Dumbledore seemed to have made up his mind and got up and walked to the other side of the principal's office.

Here, Fox, the phoenix that belongs to Dumbledore alone, is taking a nap here. Sensing Dumbledore's arrival, Fox opened his eyes and snuggled up to Dumbledore gently.

"Fox, thank you for your hard work!"

Dumbledore stroked Fox with his hand and said slowly.

Immediately, Fox uttered a loud phoenix cry, "Peng", and the figure of one person and one bird disappeared in the headmaster's room of Hogwarts.

In the middle of Europe, in a place full of snow and inaccessible to people, stands a tall tower. In the empty snow, the figures of Dumbledore and Fox appear here instantly.

Standing in front of the tower, Dumbledore looked at the top of the tower entrance, engraved with this sentence: For the greater good, after a moment of silence, Dumbledore walked alone into the building called Nurmengah Tower of Germany.

Alone, Dumbledore climbed up the steps and came to the top of Nurmengard. In an empty room, an old man with a wrinkled face and ragged clothes was sitting quietly in the room alone. .

Looking at the old man in front of him, if he walked out of this high tower, few people would be able to connect him with the first-generation Dark Lord Gellert Grindelwald who swept across Europe and America decades ago and defeated the Ministry of Magic of many countries.

Dumbledore looked at the man in front of him, who had been entangled with him for most of his life, and became what he is now. For a while, he couldn't speak.

"Albus, you haven't been here for a long time, what's the matter, you came and didn't say a word, just to see if I'm still here, dead or not?"

Gellert Grindelwald sat on the ground and said without looking back.

Dumbledore walked into the empty room and lit a flame.

"Albus, it seems that you are used to being pampered. Can you not accept the coldness? It is really worrying that the wizarding world is in the hands of people like you."

Facing Grindelwald's ridicule, Dumbledore did not show anger, but replied like an old friend who hadn't seen him for many years:

"I'm afraid that your eyes will be dazzled and you won't be able to read the words on the letter clearly!"

Immediately, Dumbledore took out the letter from Newt Scamander from his arms and handed it to Grindelwald.

Grindelwald took the letter with a puzzled face and started browsing.

Just after reading the beginning, Grindelwald couldn't help but sneered and said:

"It seems that this is a letter written to you by that kid who wanders around with a zoo all day long. I didn't expect you to keep in touch after so many years!"

But as Grindelwald continued to read the contents of the letter, Grindelwald's face gradually became ugly, and finally he threw the letter back to Dumbledore.

Grindelwald finally stood up and looked directly into Dumbledore's eyes. A pair of breathtaking eyes, which were completely different from their appearance, still looked deep and bright in the dim Nurmengard tower.

"So, according to that kid's request, you came here to see if I violated our agreement and walked out of Nurmengard? Dumbledore, it seems that after a long time, you forgot who I am! "

"Staying in Nurmengard is my own choice! Dumbledore, don't forget, it wasn't you Dumbledore who won that year, but I, Grindelwald, didn't want to play anymore!"

Looking at the friend who was both an enemy and a friend, who was once closer than a brother, Dumbledore said softly:

"Gellert, I never doubted you, of course I know that you will not violate the agreement between us, there is another reason for this situation.

Moreover, I also know what the real reason is. "

Hearing Dumbledore's answer, Grindelwald's complexion gradually improved, but then he asked suspiciously:

"It seems that something happened to the outside world?"

Dumbledore nodded slowly, and said:

"This year, among the freshmen entering Hogwarts, there is a young man named Wentworth Grindelwald!"

"This is impossible!"

Gellert exclaimed, and said:

"You know, just like the bloodline of your Dumbledore family is born with the help of the phoenix, the bloodline of our Grindelwald family is born to be a prophet. According to my previous prophecy, the Grindelwald family, after me, There should be no wizards appearing!"

Dumbledore said noncommittally:

"His magical talent is indeed a bit abrupt, but he does have magical talent, there is no doubt about it."

"Just after he entered school, traces of Witchcraft activities appeared all over the world. Even in my Hogwarts, wizards suspected of Witchcraft appeared."

Suddenly, Gellert interrupted Dumbledore's narration, frowning and asked:

"Dumbledore, are you sure, that child has the blood of the Grindelwald family?"

Dumbledore nodded decisively and said:

"Of course, Gellert, I know what you are worried about. You are afraid that someone will pretend to be the heir of the Grindelwald family, deceive your subordinates, and use their loyalty to you to achieve some ulterior motives."

Gellert nodded and said slowly:

"Since you know, you must have verified it."

Dumbledore rightly said:

"Of course, the pen of acceptance and the book of admission can't be wrong, and, that kid is almost the same as you when you were young!"

"Before school officially started, he let the whole freshman group remember his name. On the first day of school, he made the whole Hufflepuff house regard him as a lucky star. The pharmacy teachers are amazed by the special way of processing medicinal materials."

"Gellert, he is the blood of the Grindelwald family, there is no doubt about it! Moreover, even my newly recruited Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher is suspected to be your believer, and came to Hogwarts to protect him secretly. Your believers, you should understand, they are not so easy to deceive!"

After listening to Dumbledore's explanation, Gellert nodded slowly, and after a long silence, he sighed and said:

"It's good, everything is good. By the way, my younger brother should be gone. Then, what about Wentworth's parents? If possible, let them leave Europe and go to Asia or Africa, whatever."

"I used to think that after me, the Grindelwald family would have no connection with the magic world, but since Wentworth has returned to the magic world, my old opponents will definitely be moved by the news, his parents They are all ordinary people, so it’s better to send them away first.”

After Dumbledore was silent for a moment, he said slowly:

"According to the freshman's admission information, Wentworth is an orphan, and his parents died in a car accident a long time ago..."
