Hiding in Hogwarts as a professor

Since leaving Nurmengard, Grindelwald feels that he has become more relaxed.

In the past, when he was staying in the cage he built with his own hands, the only source of information he could obtain was the occasional letters from Tver and Cynthia. It was even said that when Tver was too lazy to write to him, it was simply Cynthia’s letters. It can let him know some things about Muggles and the wizarding world.

But at that time, Cynthia was just a student at school, and most of the information she got was just fragments of newspapers.

If he was just a prisoner, he wouldn’t need to care about external affairs.

But after having Tver as a student, he became a teacher imparting ideals.

Therefore, this made him, who was used to controlling everything and eager to cultivate Tver as much as possible, inevitably fell into anxiety.

This is why he broke his promise to Dumbledore and finally chose to walk out of Nurmengard.

However, after graduating from Durmstrang, Tver seemed to have graduated from him…

Grindelwald suddenly discovered that even though his vision had broadened, his strength had even gradually returned to 70% to 80% of its peak, and the effect it brought to Tver was not even as great as that of his similarly aging subordinates!

Those people who stay in the Ministry of Magic of various countries can at least set an example when the Joint Operations Office is questioned internally, telling everyone that this office can prevent the emergence of the next Grindelwald, so as to promote Tver’s plan.

And what about him?

It was like a truly retired old man, watching his proud students stir up troubles in the wizarding and Muggle worlds.

It seemed like nothing could help except praise.

Of course, Grindelwald is not a pretentious person. His students are so good and the subordinates he has chosen are smarter and more capable than his original ones, so he is naturally happy to take things easy.

Grindelwald, who had calmed down, spent most of his time traveling around the world, not just the magical world.

Not only do I miss the past, but I also look forward to the future.

Occasionally, he helps to confuse Aurors who notice abnormalities in the mask. From time to time, he pretends to be a celebrity and talks about the magical phenomena that have become more and more obvious in recent years on TV shows.

This little pleasure of fooling the world took him back to the days when he was trying to overturn the law of secrecy.

However, this time his mentality was much more relaxed.

In fact, Grindelwald knew from the moment he came into contact with Tver that the boy who broke into Nurmengard was a magical time traveler.

Although time travel is very strange, in the magical world, time travel is not completely impossible, so Grindelwald did not get too entangled in this.

What really moved him and prompted him to accept Tver as his student was what he saw from Tver’s eyes, the incredible technology and precise planning for the future!

Based on this, Grindelwald is eager to overturn the Secrecy Law again!

Even though this time he was no longer trying to rule the world, he still placed all his hopes on Tver.

However, when his strength returned to its peak again, his magical but sad prophetic ability faintly told him that Tver’s time travel was not as simple as it seemed!

He didn’t know whether it was because he wasn’t strong enough or the level involved was too high. He could only faintly sense this uneasiness.

Therefore, he began to pursue the truth about Tver’s journey, which led to Durmstrang’s trip.

But the result made his uneasiness even more serious.

Even Tver himself quickly found a breakthrough and even had a chance to counterattack the God of Death.

But Grindelwald’s inner uneasiness did not diminish one point.

As Tver’s teacher, Grindelwald would never allow his students to face unimaginable enemies alone.

As the first-generation Dark Lord who once dominated the world, Grindelwald will never allow his ideals to be destroyed again!

Even if the opponent is the invisible and intangible god of death!

Of course, he is not a fool, and he will not wave his wand to confront the God of Death.

After thinking seriously for a while, he realized that he could not research anything by himself.

Therefore, he calmly found a person who had studied death, the Deathly Hallows, and the God of Death very deeply——

Albus Dumbledore!

Taking advantage of the Christmas vacation, Grindelwald came to the snowy Hogwarts.

Before coming, he didn’t think it was a big deal to confront Dumbledore. After all, Tweel and he had spent a lot of time in the past few years, subtly influencing Dumbledore’s mentality.

However, the moment he appeared at Hogwarts, to be honest, he couldn’t help but feel frightened…

this time

, without Teville and Cynthia present to make jokes, he had to face Dumbledore alone…

“I didn’t expect Dumbledore to agree to your coming out of Nurmengard.”

Professor McGonagall looked at the old man in front of him with a complicated expression.

It wasn’t that she had never seen Grindelwald in Hogwarts before, but it was just that she hadn’t seen him in more than fifty years, and she only had a vague feeling that something was wrong.

It wasn’t until this time, when Dumbledore asked her to come out and take Grindelwald in, that a turmoil arose in her heart!

Although she didn’t participate too much in the original war, her understanding of the grudges between the two was no less than the others.

Even, having frequent contact with Dumbledore, she was more aware of the complicated relationship between the two!

Only this time, Dumbledore and Grindelwald in front of him were relatively calm, at least, they looked calm.

This actually reassured her a little.

Rather than fighting between these two people at Hogwarts, she would rather let Voldemort attack the castle. At least they would prefer to deal with the Dark Lord first…

“It was not Dumbledore who locked me up, Minerva, I don’t need his permission.” Grindelwald said in a relaxed tone.

Professor McGonagall’s heart twitched, and she suddenly felt that she had reassured herself too early.

She stood there and took a few deep breaths before she calmed down.

“Come on, Dumbledore is waiting for you in the principal’s office.”

“Tsk, those who don’t know think he is some kind of big shot now, and he even refuses to come out of the principal’s office.” Grindelwald said with slight contempt.

Although he had been to Hogwarts before, he was disguised as Ludo Bagman, so it was normal for Dumbledore not to greet him.

But now, he notified Dumbledore in advance that he had something important to discuss, but in the end he was still angry!

“Dumbledore needs to monitor the castle…” Professor McGonagall wanted to explain to Dumbledore, but considering the complicated relationship between the two, there may not be a reason that she didn’t know, “Forget it, whatever you think .”

As a result, some students who stayed at Hogwarts for Christmas saw Professor McGonagall with a serious face and an amiable old man following her.

Just like Dumbledore, a kind old man.

This weird atmosphere gave everyone a sudden feeling——

This Christmas doesn’t seem to be a good one, at least, for some people.
