Austria, among the mountains.

A dark castle stands on a snow-capped mountain.

Although it is said to be a castle, in fact, the main structure of Nurmengard is only a towering tower built on the edge of the cliff, and an attached courtyard that is not too big.

Originally, after decades of neglect, this tower no longer had the luxury and splendor it once had.

There are a lot of moss stains on the outer walls of the tower, and the iron railings surrounding the entire courtyard are also rusted and broken due to the erosion of time.

But now, after restoration, this ancient tower has regained its second life.

The stains on the walls have been cleaned away, and all the old and rusty railings have been replaced.

The furniture in the tower that had become dilapidated due to the erosion of time had been cleared out and thrown outside the courtyard, where it piled up into a hill.

In addition, in order to welcome the hundreds of new students who are about to enroll, a towering castle was built near the tower.

The original tower is obviously not enough to bear the heavy responsibility of the teaching building, even with the existence of the Traceless Stretch Spell.

Moreover, the first generation of the Dark Lord spent decades of dark imprisonment in this lonely Nurmengard Tower.

Even if the saints who were about to be promoted to professors were given a few hundred courage, they would not dare to privately transform this tower into a teaching building.

In their eyes, that tower is a holy place.

A holy place for saints.

Therefore, the newly built towering castle next to it, which looks like Hogwarts, will be the main teaching building of Nurmengard School of Witchcraft and Wizardry in the future.

One piece after another, new furniture is actively lining up and floating into the castle under the influence of the floating spell.

A figure landed on the trail on the mountainside.

With a pilgrim-like mood, Alfred walked step by step along the rugged trail towards the black castle on the top of the mountain.

Looking at the line of mottos engraved above the entrance to the Nurmengard Tower, which were regarded as life creeds by the saints, Alfred's eyes flashed with a complicated look.

How long has it been since Nurmengard has seen such a grand scene?

"For the greater good..." Alfred whispered the words above the entrance.

Going up the stone steps, Alfred finally came to an oak door that was obviously newly replaced.

The old housekeeper stretched out his hand and knocked lightly on the door twice.

"Come in."

Grindelwald's voice came from behind the door.

In the room, Grindelwald, an old man and a young man, were sitting on the sofa with their legs crossed.

Through the huge floor-to-ceiling windows in front of them, the two people's eyes were firmly fixed on the castle under construction in front of them.

After Kyle attended the Order of the Phoenix meeting that day, he no longer stayed in the UK.

In recent times, Voldemort has been making frequent moves, and the Order of the Phoenix has to take corresponding actions.

It is estimated that Lao Deng will not be able to find time to help Kyle improve his Little Overlord learning machine during this period.

As an "idler" who did not officially join the Order of the Phoenix, Kyle did not continue to stay at the Black House as the general headquarters of the Order of the Phoenix.

Instead, he chose to return to Nurmengard Castle in Austria.

…

Alfred looked helplessly at the father and son who were not doing their jobs properly.

I don’t know what special hobby the father and son have awakened.

Since Master Kyle returned to Nurmengard, the father and son's greatest pleasure every day is to stay in this room and watch the magic school not far away being completed bit by bit.

Perhaps this hobby of watching construction sites is deeply engraved in every man's genes.

Alfred had to admit that if he hadn't had a lot of work to do, he might have sat in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows all day like the father and son.

It is so interesting to watch a magnificent building being built bit by bit.

Kyle stood up, "Alfred, what's going on?"

"Letter from Lord Dumbledore." Alfred took out two letters from the inner pocket of his clothes.

Upon hearing that it was Dumbledore's letter, Grindelwald, who was sitting on the sofa as steady as a rock, naturally stretched out his hand.

But after waiting for a long time, he didn't see Alfred handing the letter to him.

"Sorry, sir," Alfred showed an awkward but polite smile, "Both letters are written to Master Kyle."

A trace of imperceptible sullenness flashed across Grindelwald's face.

Very good, Dumbledore is patient.

When I wrote to Kyle, I didn’t even want to write to him. Instead, I sent him two letters in a row, making him mistakenly think that one of them was his, which led to embarrassment.

If Dumbledore could hear his old lover's voice, he would definitely say, what does this have to do with him?

There was a gap of three days between the dates when the two letters were sent.

It was because the place where Grindelwald and the others were staying was so difficult to find that the owl's delivery of the letter was delayed.

No matter it is the original Nurmengard Castle where they are now.

It was the New Neumengarde Castle in France where they lived before.

The outside of the castle is covered with various protective magics.

Due to the existence of protective magic, it is normal for owls to delay delivering letters.

Therefore, two letters whose sending dates are three days apart will be piled up together and then sent out at once.

Looking at Grindelwald's frozen expression on his face, Kyle felt a little funny.

He took a picture of one of the letters in his hand and photographed his father's hand that was stretched out and froze in mid-air, thus alleviating Grindelwald's embarrassment.

Grindelwald's hand felt like it had touched a red-hot iron.

His expression turned into deep disgust, and he yelled at Kyle, "Take it back."

Kyle didn't bother to pay attention to his arrogant devil father and forced the letter into Grindelwald's hands.

Can he still not understand what kind of temper his father has?

Usually Grindelwald always said that the letters Kyle received were his personal privacy.

But if he heard that the letter was written by Dumbledore, Grindelwald immediately forgot about his personal privacy.

Even if he occasionally got angry with Dumbledore and Grindelwald vowed that he would never read a letter from Dumbledore, Kyle would only regard it as a joke.

As we all know, a man's mouth is a liar.

Of course, this is only Dumbledore's letters that can have this honor.

If someone else had written to Kyle, even if Kyle forced the letter into Grindelwald's hands, the arrogant First Generation would not even look at it.

Facing this letter from an old lover, Grindelwald said no, but his body was very honest.

He opened the envelope in his hand calmly.

After a few seconds, he handed the letter to Kyle with a little boredom.

"A friend of yours is coming to visit you."

"Who is it?" Kyle curiously took the letter handed over by Grindelwald.

At the same time, he handed another letter in his hand to the butler man, "This is the list of graduates of Hogwarts in the past five years and their achievements."

Originally, it should have been the job of Grindelwald, the principal of Nurmengard, to select outstanding graduates and issue Nurmengard admission letters.

But Grindelwald was a complete hands-off shopkeeper, so Kyle didn't bother to hand him the list.

Will it fall into the hands of Mr. Alfred later?

Kyle lowered his head and looked at the letter in his hand, "Hagrid plans to come to Europe?"

At first, he still didn't understand why Dumbledore needed to write a special letter to Hagrid to tell him about it when he came to the European continent.

But the next second, Kyle remembered.

Some time ago, when he was at the Black Mansion, Snape mentioned at a meeting of the Order of the Phoenix that Voldemort planned to recruit the giants into his ranks.

Now it seems that Dumbledore is planning to send Hagrid to contact the giants and stop Voldemort's recruitment.
