Chapter 583 The meeting between Dumbledore and Grindelwald
The night is deep.
In Austria, outside Nurmengard Castle, Dumbledore's figure appeared out of thin air in a burst of flames.
Looking at the slightly dilapidated castle in front of him, Dumbledore had a slightly complicated mood - what was locked inside was his best friend.
They had a common dream and worked together for the same dream.
But in the end, he personally shattered their dreams.
Because that is simply unrealistic!
After being in a daze for a moment, Dumbledore came back to his senses, then no longer hesitated and walked toward the castle.
Dumbledore really couldn't rest assured without taking a look at that man.
In Dumbledore's view, the most powerful thing about Grindelwald was not his ability to dominate the wizarding world, but his deceptive language.
Why was Grindelwald held in solitary confinement?
Because his ability to confuse people is really terrifying.
In the 1920s, Grindelwald was arrested at the Magical Congress of America. While incarcerated, he successfully instigated a prison guard and escaped from prison with just words.
After escaping from prison, he won over thousands of wizard followers with just one speech.
Just imagine, if Grindelwald is imprisoned in Azkaban, for a monster like the Dementor, which has no loyalty at all, it is estimated that the entire Azkaban will collectively turn against him in less than three days.
As for the other criminals imprisoned in Azkaban, as soon as Grindelwald opens his mouth, these people will probably fall into Grindelwald's camp without hesitation and become his loyal fans.
So he can only be held in solitary confinement!
And now... Dumbledore didn't know what method Grindelwald used to get in touch with Andy, but it was very dangerous.
He was worried that Andy would be influenced by Grindelwald's thoughts.
Maybe he was worrying too much.
But he had to come and take a look.
The corridors of the castle were filled with dust, and cobwebs hung on the corners.
No one has cleaned this place in a long time.
The people who lived there were gradually forgotten as time went by.
But there will always be people who remember him!
Pushing open a door, Dumbledore looked at the old and thin figure standing by the window, and for a moment he had a lot of thoughts.
They are all old!
The once handsome and elegant young man has now become decrepit.
Dumbledore even felt that he was older than himself.
"I thought you would come earlier."
Grindelwald turned his back to Dumbledore, looked at the moonlight outside the window, and said calmly: "You are much later than I thought."
Now that Dumbledore has arrived, there is no need to hide some things.
And there’s no need to hide it!
Grindelwald doesn't care about this.
He didn't think the little guy would care either.
"You seem to be in a good mood," Dumbledore said.
"That's it for this period of time!"
Grindelwald said with emotion: "A few days ago, I met a very interesting little guy. We had a great chat and had many common topics."
Dumbledore: "..."
Have you changed your mind?
"This is dangerous!" Dumbledore warned.
"What's not dangerous?"
Grindelwald asked, "Can you stop us?"
Having said this, Grindelwald slowly turned around. He looked at Dumbledore, raised his eyelids, and said, "You seem to have changed a lot. What makes you afraid?"
Dumbledore was silent for a moment, and then said: "Voldemort was once my student."
In Dumbledore's view, the reason why Voldemort became what he is today has something to do with him.
If he could have used another way to get Voldemort to apologize to the children he bullied when they first met, the situation might have been much better than it is now.
If Voldemort had been less vigilant and more patient when he was in school, Voldemort might have been very different.
"Yes!"
Grindelwald nodded and said, "Andy Collins is also your student."
"But there's one thing I thought wrong... I didn't find him first, but he found me first."
Speaking of this, Grindelwald paused.
He looked at Dumbledore and continued: "Do you know what people like us have in common?"
Before Dumbledore could answer, Grindelwald said to himself: "That means we are all very persistent!"
"What we believe will not be changed easily."
"I saw this the first time I saw that little guy. So your worries are unnecessary. I will not waste my time with a person who is determined in his heart."
These words did not reassure Dumbledore.
He believed that Grindelwald was telling the truth. At their point, lies were no longer necessary.
But to be honest...that's even more worrying!
Grindelwald is very good at reading people.
Since he said that Andy will not easily shake his belief, it means that Andy will continue to pursue the ultimate mystery of magic.
As if he had clearly seen Dumbledore's appearance at this moment, Grindelwald slowly turned around, continued to look at the moonlight outside the window, and said lightly: "I have no intention of causing you trouble. I am obsessed with new things now, every day. I have to study for a long time, and I don’t have enough sleep.”
"That kid is really crazy about magic."
Dumbledore asked curiously: "It seems that your topic interests you very much?"
"Yes!" Grindelwald did not deny it.
Dumbledore nodded slightly when he heard this.
He had no intention of exploring the topic between the two, he just needed to make sure that Grindelwald did not take the opportunity to instill his dangerous ideas into Andy.
But...this doesn't seem to be a surprise.
Dumbledore could well imagine that when Grindelwald told Andy about his dream, Andy had a look of impatience on his face, mocking his dream as a waste of time.
Andy is a pure wizard!
In his opinion, wizards have to do wizard things.
If it weren't for the name Grindelwald, Dumbledore wouldn't be so worried.
"hey-hey!"
Grindelwald suddenly chuckled and said with a rather proud tone: "Can you imagine? When someone hears about my reputation, the first thing he thinks of is to ask me for magic."
Dumbledore: "..."
What do you mean by this?
"It seems that the quality of teaching at Hogwarts is worrying."
Grindelwald joked lightly: "If you can't teach him, you can send him to me. I am very interested in that kid."
Dumbledore looked around and said calmly: "I'm afraid you don't have anything here that makes him excited."
Are you saying this in front of me, the principal?
Have you forgotten how you lost in four or five years?
Grindelwald did not continue this topic, but asked curiously: "Although that boy is not vigilant, he is not showing off everywhere."
"What happened today?"
