"Luke Gunter...the things he has done over the years..."
Grindelwald sat in Orson's seat, looking at the information about Luke Gaunt that Orson put on the table, and frowned for a moment, as if he had encountered some difficulty.
"He's very mysterious. We haven't even really figured out which generation to start tracing his family tree from. His very appearance is already very confusing."
Orson didn't pretend to understand.Even after having so many interactions with Luke Gunter, both overtly and covertly, he still had only a vague understanding of Luke Gunter himself and the forces behind him.
If you want to say that Luke Gunter's strength is only what is revealed on the surface, then Orson really can't believe it.Because of these things on the surface, it is impossible to provide Luke Gunter with the confidence to support him in transforming the world.But if it's more than that, then they really can't find out what other trump cards Luke Gunter has.
More importantly, they really failed to successfully place any effective undercover agent next to Luke Gunter.You know, the undercover agents they knew arranged by Luke Gunter have become promising middle-level players within the Saints.As for whether there is one at the upper level, this is a question that almost doesn’t need to be asked.The question is just who.
When he told Grindelwald about the mole, Grindelwald nodded and said, "I was also worried that Angel might be too stressed by being assigned to be an undercover agent, so I didn't let him stay."
Orson didn't understand for a moment after hearing this.
"Did you send Angel to be an undercover agent next to Luke Gunter? It's just that he didn't know yet that you used secret means?"
Grindelwald shook his head and said to Orson: "I am worried that if he keeps in touch with Luke Gunter around us, Luke Gunter will let him work as an undercover agent, and then he will have greater pressure in his heart. ."
Orson immediately closed his mouth.I couldn't say a word.This sounds like a betrayal of the organization.If Angel can withstand this pressure, will you really have a mole around you?
Orson felt that this was not the right thing to say, so he simply shut up.If you don't feel right no matter what you say, just shut up.
"Undercover..."
Grindelwald looked at Luke's information, and finally his eyes rested on a girl standing and talking with Luke.In that photo, the pretty girl with long blond hair was joking with Luke.
And Grindelwald noticed that the girl had eyes as blue as the sea.And those eyes were very similar to his.
After a moment of silence, he said, "I'll try."
try what?Orson felt like he couldn't keep up with Lord Grindelwald's brain.However, he nodded calmly.
"Okay, if you need anything, please arrange it directly."
Orson's attitude is also very clear. As long as Grindelwald wants to do it, it doesn't matter what impact it will have on the Saints organization, whether it is good or bad.Because the Saints organization is Grindelwald's organization.People here worship Grindelwald himself more than they believe in Grindelwald's ideas.
"What should we do with those American nobles who are obstructing us?"
Orson did not continue to dwell on the topic of the mole, but brought up another matter.
"Noble..." Grindelwald fell into thought.Things in the wizarding world are always inseparable from these people.Whether you want to reform or become a new leader, you always need to have a good relationship with these families.But we cannot be suppressed too deeply by these families.
Grindelwald had grasped this detail many years ago.However, whether the past experience will still be valid today decades later, even Grindelwald himself is not sure.
So, after a moment, Grindelwald said: "Go and have a look. Seeing them with your own eyes can always lead to a more reliable conclusion."
With that said, Grindelwald stood up and strode toward the door.Orson, on the other hand, trotted two steps to catch up with Grindelwald, and finally quickly followed behind him, and gave an overview of various information about Baxter Enwy and Terken.
Grindelwald nodded and said nothing more.These nobles have not changed much whether they were decades ago or now.Their joy has always been unpretentious women and power.
After all, strictly speaking, they are the rulers of the wizarding world, and of course they are no longer pursuing any changes.They will only pursue more enjoyment.
Grindelwald knew these people well.His ideals do not conflict with the ideas of these people, so there is no room for negotiation between the two parties.
but……
Grindelwald appeared in the room and looked at the two nobles who were bound in the room.
They were eating now, although the meals they were given were far from what they usually ate.But even with a sandwich and a glass of hot water, Baite Enwei managed to eat it as if he was enjoying the heart of a fire dragon and top-quality wine.
Orson couldn't help but turn away.In his opinion, the person in front of him was a bit too pretentious...
"Oh, it's Lord Grindelwald, welcome to your presence."
Baxter Enwy swallowed the bacon sandwich in his mouth, then raised his hand to Grindelwald and said.
"But I'm sorry, I'm being restrained right now and I don't have much strength. Please forgive me for not being able to do the full courtesy."
His expression was still calm, as if he was not a prisoner now, but was receiving guests in his own castle.
Such an attitude was obviously disrespectful, and Orson's face darkened.He has long been dissatisfied with Baite Enwei in various ways.It didn't take long for this guy to be officially absorbed into the Saints organization.And the decision to absorb him was not made by Orson.To be precise, if Orson could make the decision himself, then it would be impossible for someone like Baxter Envey, who obviously had other aspirations to enter the Saints organization, to become a member of the Saints.
But like said before.While Orson is hiding his side's strength, he must make concessions in some aspects.The joining of Baxter Envi is naturally the result of compromise.
And after there was no need to compromise, he immediately restrained these people who were always giving him obstacles.Not too violent, but definitely not a good attitude.After all...even if you want to show your kindness, you must leave this opportunity to Lord Grindelwald.
It is the same principle as the previous emperor demoted officials and the next emperor promoted officials.Leave opportunities to those in need.
Grindelwald looked at the young man in front of him, waved his wand, and a chair grew out of thin air on the ground.Grindelwald sat on a chair, with his legs crossed and his hands crossed on his knees, with a cold and calm expression on his face.
"Hello, Baxter Enwy. You seem to be doing well right now."
His tone was a little cold.This made Bait Enwei unable to tell whether this person was mocking him or not.After all, although the people arranged by Orson did not seek death, it was impossible for Baxter Envi not to resist.Therefore, the current situation of Baite Enwei should not be described as being in good condition.
At least he didn't think it was a good situation when his dress was torn, his face was bruised, and his body was poured into a potion that forced weakness.
"If you think so, then I really have nothing to say, your people do treat me 'okay' now. Not so politely though."
Baxter Enwy still smiled, shrugged and told a not-so-funny joke.
Obviously, this attitude is no longer considered a friendly conversation.More like a gentle 'rebuke'.It's not a yin and yang thing, after all, it doesn't make people feel ridiculed.
Grindelwald didn't seem to care about Baxter Enwy's attitude.
"Do you want to leave?"
He asked straight to the point.
Baite Enwei is a smart man. Of course he knows who is willing to fight with him in a gantry formation and fight for his own interests, and who is not willing to go through such twists and turns.
"If I can leave, I don't have any reason not to leave." As he said, he knocked on the table in front of him, "After all, this place doesn't really look like a place to eat."
Teken who was following him was stunned and didn't dare to say a word.When he saw Grindelwald, and he was still a young Grindelwald, he shut his mouth tightly.The things in his mind jumped out of his mind one by one, hitting his head one after another.
Now Baxter Enwy's attitude when speaking to Grindelwald made him feel quite uncomfortable.After all, the young man in front of him has never seen Grindelwald's methods.Isn't it because of their radical style that many people stayed away from the Saints?
And where did the saints’ style come from?Of course it was inherited from Grindelwald.This man has never been a good-tempered guy.It can even be said that this guy is very aggressive...
"Then hand over your control over the saints." Grindelwald's tone was cold and tough.There seems to be little room for negotiation.In other words, he had no intention of discussing it in the first place.
"Hand over control and you can leave. If there is anything we can cooperate with in the future, we can continue to contact you in the future."
After Baite Enwei heard this request, he immediately frowned tightly.This is clearly not in his interest.You know, the current saints are obviously more valuable after the appearance of Grindelwald himself.It can even be said that things that could have been discarded casually are now worth a lot of money.With the internal strength of the Saints they now have, it is enough for them to occupy a very important position in the Saints organization.
"Lord Grindelwald, I think there is still room for discussion on this matter." Baxter Enwy's tone brought a hint of smile. Although he was still calm, it was obvious that he was a lot more enthusiastic. "I think We can make a contribution to your cause. After all, to be honest, we have also contributed a lot to the stability and development of the Saints. You can even ask Mr. Orson to confirm this."
As he spoke, he even looked at Orson with a smile.Orson was disgusted by the sight of him.He has seen the kindness and integrity of wizard nobles.He has also seen the darkness and shamelessness of the wizard nobles.The guy in front of me is the most typical dark and shameless noble.Orson even felt that he couldn't find anything about him that he could praise from the highest level.
However, even so, he did not deny what Baite Envi said in front of him.Because they did get a lot of help from Baxter Envi.In a sense, these people who are hostile to him and do not want to rescue Grindelwald from Nurmengard are the main contributors to the Saint's ability to truly establish a foothold in the North American continent.
Of course, it's different now. Orson is really ready to kill the donkey.But he doesn't feel any guilt towards these people.Everyone is using each other.Aristocrats go a long way to maintaining a positive image of themselves.Notoriety won't cost them anything in the fight for power, but it will make them lose face in aristocratic circles.
This is an important point.So they're going to need the Saints to do something shady.They support the saints and even become saints in order to be able to do bad things.The true 'saints' represented by Orson are indifferent to their actions.Although their actions have nothing to do with the saints' purpose, they are simply doing evil.The saints won't say much.After all, if the Saints still insist on being reserved except for the bottom line under such circumstances, they will inevitably lead to destruction.
This is what they cannot accept.
"I said, we can talk about any follow-up cooperation. But now, hand over your power among the saints to Orson."
Grindelwald still said calmly, his tone was like a simple notice, and he obviously had no intention of discussing with the other party.
Baxter Enwy looked at Grindelwald's unchanged face, his eyes became sharp.
"But, Mr. Grindelwald, those people are my people. They are my power."
This was obviously said with some anger.Such a tone made Teken on the side break out into a cold sweat.He already had a very bad feeling in his heart at this time.But when he raised his head to warn Baxter Enwy, he would always see Grindelwald's face the moment he raised his head.
He didn't know if it was his imagination, but every time he raised his head, he always felt that Grindelwald was looking directly at him.This made him swallow his words again and again.This was obviously not a good thing, and he felt it was best for him to remain silent.
"I only know that they are saints." Grindelwald's tone still didn't sound angry. "They are my people, aren't they? They act under my banner, so naturally they should obey my orders."
Grindelwald sat in Orson's seat, looking at the information about Luke Gaunt that Orson put on the table, and frowned for a moment, as if he had encountered some difficulty.
"He's very mysterious. We haven't even really figured out which generation to start tracing his family tree from. His very appearance is already very confusing."
