#73 - Chapter 73: Give the two old men a little shock from the Muggle world

Sebastian almost spat out his salt soda.

Who's being childish here?

Please get your facts straight!

Is this really Grindelwald?

That heartthrob?!

What happened to your charisma?

If the smiling Dumbledore weren't sitting right next to him, Sebastian would never have been able to associate this little old man with the legendary first-generation Dark Lord.

To be honest, before coming, he had imagined countless meeting scenarios in his mind.

But he never expected that he would receive a childish evaluation just after saying hello.

However, despite the complaints, Sebastian was still surprised by Grindelwald's strength.

There was no trace of Legilimency at all.

Is this precognition?

What did this old man see?

Tch...

So what if you can foresee the future!

He asked with a smile, unhurriedly: "What did you see?"

Grindelwald glanced at Dumbledore, then looked at Sebastian with a smile that wasn't quite a smile.

"Some of your arrangements in the Muggle world."

"You want to break the 'Statute of Secrecy,' don't you?"

Sebastian couldn't help but raise his eyebrows. As expected, a great reputation is not without merit. Just by seeing a little bit of the layout, he concluded that his purpose was to break the 'Statute of Secrecy.'

Is this the power of Grindelwald's insight into people's hearts that is rumored?

Originally, he came today just to learn spells, but before he even started learning spells, Grindelwald saw his intention to break the 'Statute of Secrecy.'

This is a bit troublesome now. Dumbledore's face has already darkened.

On the other hand, Grindelwald, the old man, was smiling, looking like he was enjoying the show.

Sebastian calmed himself down and made up his mind to come clean.

Since Dumbledore already knows and can't be fooled, he might as well be straightforward today to avoid having to explain it again later.

Moreover, breaking the 'Statute of Secrecy' was also the wish of these two old men when they were young. If he could persuade them and win them over to his camp, the road ahead would be easier.

In the blink of an eye, Sebastian had already prepared his speech in his mind. He pulled out a chair and sat opposite the two of them.

"I thought you would support me in breaking the 'Statute of Secrecy.'"

"I only acknowledge that you have the idea of breaking it. Otherwise, I wouldn't bother saying a word to you, even if you came with Albus."

For a moment, a hint of contempt appeared on Grindelwald's face.

"Just making movies in the Muggle world?" He curled his lips, revealing a disdainful look. "Such a childish method, only you could think of it."

"Childish? Your methods are not childish, but they failed."

"In my opinion, your proposal to let wizards directly rule Muggles is really childish."

"Oh, is that so?" Grindelwald still had a faint smile on his face, as if he didn't take Sebastian's words to heart at all.

"Young man, you can tell me, where exactly is your method superior?"

"As long as you can convince me, I can teach you a unique spell."

Seeing Grindelwald's face full of contempt, Sebastian no longer held back and completely let go.

You need to know that his greatest strength is convincing people with reason.

To deal with this kind of old man who has lived alone for half a century, he must first use irrefutable facts to shut him up, so that he can calm down and listen to others.

However, before Sebastian could say anything, Dumbledore couldn't sit still any longer and hurriedly interrupted the argument between the two.

"Sebastian, tell me, do you really want to break the 'Statute of Secrecy'?"

"You should know that the magical world, after experiencing two wars, is really fragile and can't withstand too much turmoil."

Seeing Dumbledore's solemn face, Sebastian signaled him to be calm and then took out a square object.

"There is a very classic saying among Muggles, called 'Know yourself and know your enemy, and you will never be defeated.'"

"I want to ask you two, have you really seriously understood Muggles?"

Sebastian pointed to the object on the ground.

"In front of you is a groundbreaking product invented by Muggles—a computer."

"Unfortunately, there is no electricity here, and there is no internet, so I can't show you its powerful functions."

Seeing this strange object, Grindelwald was instantly interested. He had been in Nurmengard since 1945.

To be honest, he really didn't understand what this strange object was for.

"With computers and the internet, Muggles in England can contact Muggles in America in just a few seconds."

"This communication can be text, it can be pictures, and you can even look at each other's faces and communicate directly."

"Headmaster Dumbledore, you may not know, Harry's aunt's house has this kind of thing."

"What does this mean? It shows that this kind of thing has begun to enter the homes of millions of ordinary Muggles."

"With it, people all over the world can communicate freely, without the limitations of distance and time."

After listening to Sebastian's introduction for a while, Grindelwald's face turned ugly.

His precognition was triggered, and he found that this young man was not bragging at all.

He saw many uses for computers. It was not just a communication tool. Muggles could also use it for efficient learning.

Suddenly, his pupils shrank, and he saw this young man take out a black brick.

He recognized it. This black brick had appeared in his predictions. It was also a tool that could allow Muggles to communicate efficiently.

Grindelwald's mood was a bit heavy. He couldn't imagine what the Muggle world was like now.

Thinking of the magical world that was still using owls to transmit information, his heart was full of worry.

Where is the way out for the magical world?

Looking at Sebastian, who was talking eloquently, he understood one thing.

Every generation has its own mission, and his era has passed.

Since this young man has the idea of breaking the 'Statute of Secrecy,' it's better to listen carefully to what his plans are.

Slowly, he became calm again and listened carefully to Sebastian's introduction.

Looking at the two old men who were listening to him attentively, Sebastian seemed to have returned to the Muggle Studies class and became even more confident.

He took out many more photos and enlarged them one by one to explain to the two old men.

"Aren't these things amazing? Don't they look more magical than magic?"

"Don't underestimate Muggles. Although they don't have magic, they have unique wisdom."

Sebastian laughed self-deprecatingly.

"To be honest, just by walking around the streets of London a few times, I would feel that the Muggle world has surpassed the magical world too much."

His face straightened, and he looked at Dumbledore sincerely.

"Headmaster, I have always been worried."

"According to the speed of technological development in the Muggle world, in less than twenty years, the sky will be full of Muggle satellites."

"Their streets will also have hundreds of millions of cameras."

"By then, the magical world will no longer be able to hide."

Sebastian changed his tone, and his voice became impassioned.

"Therefore."

"Instead of passively waiting for the situation to worsen, it is better to take the initiative."

"Take the initiative into our own hands!"
