Chapter 110 Stay with me tonight, Albus, don't leave.
Dumbledore was concerned about his old lover, so he had no time to have dinner with the review team.
He arrived outside the tower of Nurmengard in Austria last night.
Among the towering mountains, the tower of Nurmengard stands on the highest peak.
The tower was pitch black, surrounded by weeds and vines.
The stone tablet at the entrance is engraved with Grindelwald's slogan: "For the greater good"
Dumbledore was now standing at the entrance to Nurmengard.
As he stood there, he could hear laughter from the tower above from time to time.
Whenever that laughter sounded, his beard would shake unconsciously.
After an unknown amount of time, a familiar and slightly old voice suddenly came to Dumbledore's ears.
"Since you are here, why don't you come up."
When he heard the voice, his body trembled unconsciously again.
It was a sound he would never forget in his life, but he still didn't have the courage to take a step forward.
"How come the greatest white wizard also has a place he dares not go to?" The voice sounded again, and the urging tone was even more obvious.
Dumbledore finally took a step forward and climbed up the tower step by step along the dark stairs.
In the room at the top of the tower, a door was open, as if waiting for his arrival.
The light in the room was dim, but it was enough to reveal a hard bed and a ragged, frail old man.
He sat quietly at the head of the bed, his eyes focused on Dumbledore who had just stepped through the threshold.
The two of them just looked at each other in silence for a long time.
"After forty-seven years, you finally come to see me." The old man's voice was hoarse and old.
"Long time no see, Gellert." Dumbledore responded softly, with both reluctance and guilt in his eyes.
"Yes, Albus, long time no see." A smile appeared on Gellert's old face.
There was another long silence afterwards, and the two of them just stared at each other quietly.
Albus flicked his wand and the room suddenly became bright and warm.
Two comfortable sofas appeared out of nowhere, along with a small square table and tea set.
"Would you like to sit down with me and have a cup of tea?" Albus invited, with a rare hint of tenderness in his tone.
"You know, Albus, I never say no to a request you make." Gellert smiled and sat down on one of the sofas.
Albus shuddered all over, "Why don't you make the environment better?"
"Is there any difference?" Gellert began to brew black tea somewhat unfamiliarly, and even put some sugar in Albus's teacup.
"I'm offering you this." He pushed the teacup in front of Albus.
Albus also sat down, picked up the teacup and took a sip, his mouth full of bitterness.
"You came because of my laughter." Gellert seemed to be talking to himself, but also seemed to be talking to Albus.
"Have you encountered any happy things recently?" Albus asked subconsciously.
Gellert took a sip of his tea and did not respond directly.
Albus's eyes became deep, and he sighed: "The world today can no longer withstand turmoil."
Gellert said slowly: "Change always requires a price, and blood is inevitable. After so many years, don't you understand?"
Albus shook his head. "But the wizarding world really can't stand any more blood and sacrifice."
Gellert chuckled, "My prophecy is coming true step by step. The wizards will no longer be able to hide in the dark."
Albus sighed, "Perhaps by that time, I will no longer be alive."
"You are still so hypocritical!" Gellert looked at Albus calmly.
Albus' beard trembled again, "Gellert, I really don't want to be with you anymore..."
Gellert laughed, "Haha, look at me in this state, can I still wave my wand?"
"You can if you want to." Albus didn't believe the nonsense that Gellert couldn't wave his wand.
"Did you come here just to say this?" Gellert's eyes suddenly became serious, as if waiting for an answer.
Albus looked at Gellert's old and haggard face, and felt a pang of sadness in his heart.
He hesitated for a moment, and finally said, "I want to see you."
Gellert laughed, his eyes sparkling with joy: "This is what makes me happiest."
He patted the chair next to him, "Stay with me tonight, Albus, don't leave."
Albus' beard trembled violently again, and he gritted his teeth, "Okay."
-
Hefeth and Hagrid walked for about forty minutes and finally arrived at a relatively wide open space.
"Hefeth, here it is!" Hagrid looked around.
"Okay." Hephis nodded slightly and put both suitcases on the ground.
He squatted down, opened one of the boxes, and called softly into the box: "Novia."
As soon as he finished speaking, a huge monster nearly twenty feet tall suddenly flew out of the box.
As soon as Novia saw the vast sky, she immediately started to have fun.
It flew into the sky with a whoosh, its two huge wings stirred up a hurricane, and its thorny dragon tail knocked down a large number of trees.
Hephis looked at Novia's excitement and shrugged helplessly.
"He...Hefeth, will we be discovered like this?" Hagrid looked nervously at Novia who was flying freely in the sky.
"It's okay, let her have fun for a while!" Hephis said nonchalantly.
"But..." Hagrid was still a little worried.
"If you find out, then you find out! Who can prove that you raised her? When the time comes, we will put her away and no one will be able to find out what happened." Hephis advised.
"Okay, then you must keep an eye on her and don't let her run away." Hagrid finally settled down.
"Don't worry, Hagrid." Hephis smiled and patted Hagrid's thigh.
Novia was having fun in the air, with no intention of stopping.
But fortunately, she knew not to fly too far, so she always stayed within their sight.
At this moment, a strange feeling suddenly surged in Hephis's heart.
He calmly released his magical perception, and faint magical fluctuations were heard from the woods.
Five wizards wearing tights similar to camouflage uniforms and holding magic wands were approaching this direction stealthily.
"Hagrid, I'm going to the bathroom, you stay here for a while." Hefeth said to Hagrid beside him.
Hegen groaned, his eyes still fixed on Novia flying in the sky.
Hephis walked behind a big tree, cast an Disillusionment Charm, and walked towards the direction of the five wizards.
