The Heavens: Hogwarts Transfer Students

Chapter 164 Grindelwald Returns

Linde turned down Lockhart's offer. Lockhart was also straightforward, and directly sent him a large package, which contained 700 Galleons, which counted as hush money. The package accompanying the letter also expressed his regret, and said that every month, he would send the same sum of money to Linde, and he was always welcome to accept employment.

Lockhart has come to the most glorious moment of his life, and this kind of time cannot allow any stains to appear. Linde was hiding at Hogwarts, and Lockhart was not confident in casting the Oblivion Curse on a student under the protection of Dumbledore, so he could only expect Linde to keep his promise.

For the next December, Lockhart's daily activities consisted of giving interviews, attending events in the Muggle world, giving peace speeches, and leading the Ministry of Magic Aurors on a circus-like tour.

The Ministry of People's Federation and the British government obviously supported Lockhart's overtures. They continued to arrange programs for Lockhart. The TV station would release three documentaries, two TV series, and one movie a week, all telling stories about wizards. They did a remake of The Tales of Beedle the Bard and they put on a talk show for every Ministry wizard.

Ordinary people learn more and more about the magical world through various channels, and their desire, jealousy, and fear of magic are also increasing day by day.

Muggles are constantly pursuing the footprints of magic. They learned that there are eleven magic schools in the world, where magic is taught, and that there are hidden wizarding communities everywhere, so they launched explorations one after another.

This activity started in August, at first it was just a small-scale non-governmental activity, and in October, it became an organized collective action. At the end of October, several multinational companies were established to provide logistical support for travelers looking for magic schools, and these companies also have official forces behind them.

Muggles broke into wizards' retreats and magical creatures' habitats, some with curiosity, and some with criminal acts, such as theft, kidnapping, poaching, poaching, black market, and Artifacts and creatures related to magic once soared to sky-high prices, and the semi-public trading behavior gave ordinary people the opportunity to participate, which aroused the enthusiasm of the public.

With the spread of panic, especially the attack on the Ilvermorny School in North America, all wizards in the area have a sense of urgency for ordinary people. They cast spells on Muggles who trespassed in their private domain, some of them punished them with minor punishments, and some dark wizards simply used the Muggles delivered to their door as consumables.

In the newspapers and in the news, every day there are horrific news about wizards hurting people, people demonstrating, and even witnessing giants, werewolves, vampire attacks and so on.

At such a special moment, the governments of various countries have different policies on wizards, and people's perceptions of wizards are also very different.

The Ouagadu School of Magic in Africa stands on Moon Mountain, which has been regarded as a holy mountain since ancient times. The wizards are regarded by the locals as shamans who communicate with the gods. The chaotic local government failed to win over these extraordinary abilities, but they did not dare to offend them.

The shaman group in South America has formed a deep friendship with the local people. Students from Castrobusa will rescue civilians in distress and help them fight against natural and man-made disasters in the 1990s, mainly various man-made disasters. The local residents live in poverty all year round. With the help of wizards, the famine and medical problems are greatly alleviated.

The treatment of wizard groups in East Asia is particularly good. The rising qigong craze really made this group of masters with supernatural powers popular, and wizards became guests of honored officials. Others serve as monks and priests in local temples and shrines. They are also rich, respected, and have high social status.

However, the situation is very bad in Europe and North America. The local policy towards wizards is mainly to exclude and segregate, just like they treat minorities and immigrants.

In this era, there are not many "political correctness" in the 21st century. People's hatred is very fanatical, and violent conflicts emerge in endlessly. By December, Germany was assessed by the media as the most likely area for a wizarding war to break out. People in the magic community called on local wizards to move out as much as possible, and the wizarding community should protect themselves more closely.

There is a voice in the European magic world that is getting louder and louder. The wizards who have experienced the 1940s are looking forward to the return of a great man. They put forward the slogan of that person again, hoping that he will come forward to rectify the chaos in Europe and sweep the world. Establish a new order of wizards rule over Muggles.

The highly anticipated person was the first-generation Dark Lord Gellert Grindelwald who was defeated by Dumbledore and imprisoned in Nurmengard.

Nowadays, there are wizards watching the stars at night, and it is easier to know the number of days. Professor Trelawney exclaims at the dinner party that the devil is back. Dumbledore goes to Austria on a snowy night to meet his old friend Grindelwald.

Nurmengard, a dark fortress, was built when Grindelwald was in power. Since Dumbledore defeated him, the Dark Lord was imprisoned here, and it changed from the Dark Lord's palace to the one with Az. Caban's eponymous prison.

Dumbledore came here alone, looking at the sign on the entrance gate: For the Greater Good. For a time, I was filled with emotions. When he was young, he was also emotionally agitated by the ideology represented by this slogan. At that time, the Muggle world was also guided by a similar trend of thought, which caused a huge disaster.

Grindelwald and the Muggle leader are like the same individuals in a parallel world.

Dumbledore gave up this terrible idea, and his country also fought against evil, but less than half a century later, new turmoil was once again brewing in this world. This time, can he turn the tide like he did back then? And will the people still choose justice?

He walked quickly through the fortress and came to the tower where the prisoners were imprisoned. The place was empty, except for the automatic magic mechanism, there was no one in sight. Dumbledore climbed up the stairs and reached the top floor. What made him feel relieved was that Grindelwald was still here.

"Hello." Grindelwald seemed to have known for a long time that Dumbledore would visit. He washed his face with the dew that condensed on the stone bricks, shaved his beard with sharp stone flakes, and used moss juice as hairspray. , Pull up thin and dry hair.

"haven't seen you for a long time."

Dumbledore is on this side of the iron fence, and old friend Grindelwald is on the other side. Their eyes are separated by the steel and the heavy curtain of time.

Grindelwald's face was covered in the narrow moonlight coming in from the high window, like a white skeleton. In the posture of dying, there is vitality, and there is great joy in the eyes.

Dumbledore's blue eyes were brimming with tears.

"Don't cry, Albus." Grindelwald said hoarsely, "Don't embarrass this hard-won meeting."

"Sorry, just remembered something from the past... Gellert, I want to ask you a favor."

"You want me to reject those wizards who come to welcome them out of prison." Grindelwald's eyes were extremely insightful, and Dumbledore couldn't tell how he guessed his purpose. It was his innate ability to predict Valid again? Or did he rely on rational logical reasoning to reach this conclusion?

"Gellert, have you given up on those ambitions?"

"From beginning to end, I was not a weak person, Albus. Muggles should submit to wizards. We are a higher race than them. You can choose to stand against me again, but I will not change my mind." .”

His words echoed in the tower, and then, the sound of steady and dense footsteps rippled from the darkness.

Dumbledore stood in the darkness in front of the prison. A large number of wizards and wizards appeared behind him. They surrounded Dumbledore and all turned towards Grindelwald bathed in the moonlight. Their eyes were full of pilgrimage excitement and desire to see the savior.

A wizard spoke up, and Dumbledore recognized him as Durmstrang's headmaster, Igor Karkaroff.

"My dear sir, we have come to ask you to lead the magic world. For the greater good, please lead us to establish a new order."

Ignoring Dumbledore, Karkaroff passed a brand new wand into the cell through a crack in the railing.

Gellert didn't take the wand immediately, but looked at Dumbledore.

The eyes of this old friend and lover are full of anxiety and expectation.

Grindelwald smiled at him and said, "The people have chosen me again."

Then took the wand.
