Snape was a little distracted by what Peter just said, and nodded to let Peter leave.

When Peter closed the office door and left, the Potions office fell into silence, with only the crackling sound of the burning wood in the fireplace.

Then Dumbledore, wearing a dark purple robe with silver stars on it, appeared! He wears half-moon glasses and has long silver hair hanging down behind him. Coming to the silent Snape, he took out a candy and said,"Severus, would you like to try Honeydukes' latest cockroach pile?"

"No, I won’t eat this!"Snape pushed away the box of cockroach-filled sweets with a face full of resistance.

Then he raised his head and looked directly at Dumbledore,"Is what that boy Peter York said true? Is the wizarding world hiding itself to avoid being hunted by Muggles?"

Dumbledore took back the pile of cockroaches with a look of pity on his face, picked up a lively cockroach sweet, and put it into his mouth. Under Snape's disgusted eyes, he chewed it with satisfaction. Then slowlyHe said,"Mr. York, what you said may be an exaggeration, but it is basically the same as the truth."

Snape couldn't believe it. He didn't expect it to be true! His throat was a little dry and he asked:"Then why has no one spoken out for so many years? Didn't the Ministry of Magic see this situation?"

Dumbledore stopped the pile of cockroaches in his hand, sighed inexplicably, and said :"In fact, someone has predicted this future a long time ago, so that person actively wanted to change this situation. Even I was once attracted by his ambition! But because of his too radical theory, I parted ways with him and ended up on opposite sides!"

"Since the fall of that man, the wizarding world has been avoiding this theory, especially the Ministry of Magic, which has strictly prohibited the spread of this theory of Muggle threat! They are afraid that this theory will cause conflicts and conflicts, causing the magical world that has been peaceful for a long time to fall into war and chaos again!"

Dumbledore sat on the chair conjured by Peter and let out a comfortable sigh,"Mr. York, it always exceeds my expectations. I didn't expect that his talent for transfiguration is so good. I think Professor McGonagall will be very happy."

"As people get older, their bodies become more fragile. After standing for so long, my old bones are almost falling apart!"

Snape had some guesses about the person he was talking about, and couldn't help but ask:"Are you talking about the dark wizard Grindelwald?"After all, apart from Voldemort, the only person who could be evenly matched with Dumbledore was Grindelwald, who was defeated by him.

When Grindelwald was raging in Europe and the United States, due to the existence of Dumbledore and the complicated relationship between the two, Grindelwald Waugh's power has not touched England. Therefore, although the British wizards know the name of this man known as the first generation of Dark Lord, they know very little about him. Hearing the name spoken by Snape, Dumbledore His eyes, which were blocked by his glasses, fluctuated slightly. He nodded,"Yes, you were not born in that era, so you don't know how attractive Grindelwald's theory is. Almost wizards all over the world yearn for that kind of theory." Life! And he is very charming, so many people joined his team and established the Wu Cui Party!"

"It's just that his theory is too radical. He wants to enslave Muggles through war and make wizards masters! This is unacceptable to some people, and even the Ministry of Magic cannot accept the existence of such a person who is above the Ministry of Magic!"

"So the wizarding world ushered in the biggest war in the history of the wizarding world! Even the Muggle world was triggered into the Second World War! Many people died during this period. It was not until I challenged Grindelwald to a duel and imprisoned him in Nurmengard that the war ended!"

"However, some wizards were affected by this and began to pay attention to the disparity in power between wizards and Muggles. They were not willing to accept this fact!"Dumbledore looked at Snape,"So when they saw another Dark Lord's proposal to exterminate Muggles, they all joined him! I want to struggle one last time!"

Hearing this, Snape's originally calm face turned a little embarrassed as he avoided Dumbledore's gaze and uttered a few words with difficulty,"Mysterious man!"

Dumbledore nodded,"But these people are disappointed. Voldemort is indeed powerful, but he always thinks about himself. He does not have lofty ambitions like Grindelwald, nor does he care about the future of wizards! Voldemort only believed in himself. What he wanted was not to enslave Muggles like those pure-blood families, but to enslave everyone, including his wizards!"

Hearing the word slavery, Snape unconsciously touched his arm. There was a mark there that could not be removed! There was a time when he was honored by this mark, but now it has become a mark that will never be removed. Unbreakable shackles!

Dumbledore noticed his situation and said in a slightly gentle voice,"Severus, it is never a shame to get lost! Even I was once attracted by Grindelwald's theory and almost went astray, but I was lucky enough to stop halfway!"

"Whether a person is good or bad is never judged by where he comes from, but by the path he chooses and what he does!"

Dumbledore touched the cushioned chair under his butt and sighed:"This kid Peter reminds me of Grindelwald, with the same talent! Just as visionary! And he is still so young and has room for further growth! If cultivated well, it will be the future of the magical world!"

"So Severus, I need you to guide him well. You are his dean, and he doesn't look afraid of you. We can't let this child go astray, otherwise it will be a disaster for the wizarding world!"
