Starting Over at Hogwarts

The blood alliance between the two was finally concluded.

Wesson Wright seems to have taken the initiative and is very sure that Grindelwald will form a blood pact with him, although the process of forming this blood pact makes Grindelwald feel a bit strange.

This blood pact is different from the blood pact he once made.

The blood of Grindelwald and Wesson Wright did not merge into a single drop. Instead, it turned into a ball of blood-red magic power, dispersed and integrated into their bodies.

"This is not a blood pact..."

Grindelwald couldn't help raising his doubts.

"Of course this is a blood alliance."

Wesen Wright shook his head and explained softly: "Don't worry, Mr. Grindelwald, you don't have to worry about our blood alliance being broken by others in the future. It can only be lifted when I choose to be injured or Mr. Grindelwald dies..."

"..."

Grindelwald's eyes were a little aggrieved.

Why was Wesson Wright only injured, but when it was him, he only died?

Why hasn't he agreed to cooperate with Wesen Wright? When this little guy looked very respectful to him; now that he has agreed to cooperate, this little guy's words can make people mad to death.

"Let's go back to London first."

Weissen Wright looked at Grindelwald and said softly: "Let my people help Mr. Grindelwald find an outfit and a wand by the way. He is going to meet his relatives and friends tomorrow."

In theory, this isn't wrong.

Dumbledore is Grindelwald's good friend, and Bathilda Bagshot is Grindelwald's aunt, but I don't know if they will feel any surprise when they see Grindelwald tomorrow.

"Do you think Dumbledore will still be in Godric's Hollow tomorrow?"

Grindelwald laughed and shook his head. He knew his friend very well: "The entire European wizarding world is uneasy because of the empty Nurmengard. Dumbledore will come to Austria soon."

Yes.

Grindelwald has this confidence.

As long as the news that he left Nurmengard Castle spreads, Dumbledore will definitely not be able to stay in England. Perhaps he will come to Austria when he receives a letter from the Austrian Ministry of Magic.

"Who said Nurmengard was empty?"

Wesen Wright couldn't help but chuckle, looked at Grindelwald and continued: "Have you forgotten what I said? Mr. Grindelwald, there is another person in Nurmengard Castle!"

"That squib on the doorstep!"

Grindelwald stared at Wesen Wright, and continued in a deep voice: "I thought you would kill him... When you entered Nurmengard, that squib saw you!"

"No, of course he didn't see me."

Weissen Wright shook his head quickly, looked at the confused Grindelwald, and explained seriously: "How could that poor old man see me? Did he forget it? He could only see Mr. Peter. ah!"

"..."

Grindelwald's forehead couldn't help but start to beat again.

Late at night.

Godric's Hollow.

Just when Dumbledore was finally able to fall asleep in his former residence, the Ministry of Magic from other countries urgently sent people to him with news that Grindelwald, who had been imprisoned in Nurmengard Castle, had escaped!

A sealed letter was opened.

Inside was an image of the Austrian Minister of Magic.

"Mr. Albus Dumbledore, I'm sorry to disturb your rest at this time."

"We have to tell you the news. The magic barrier outside Nurmengard Prison is broken, and Gellert Grindelwald, who has been imprisoned in it, is missing. The initiator is still a mystery!"

"We got some information from the warden of Nurmengard Prison. A short, fat wizard appeared tonight and sneaked into the prison, and used the Imperius Curse to control the mind of the warden. We think it was him who rescued Grindelwald. .

"However, based on some of the information we have received and comparing the information obtained by each wizard, this is a person who has died long ago, the British wizard Peter Pettigrew. Obviously, the person who rescued Grindelwald used a false identity."

"As of now, our Aurors are still tracking Grindelwald. We should all be very aware of the probability of success in this pursuit, so we urgently need some other support."

"In order to avoid the resurgence of Grindelwald and his witch-hunting party, I would like to invite Mr. Dumbledore to come to the Austrian Ministry of Magic as soon as possible to discuss the situation. The above letter is urgent."

After saying that.

The image disappeared on the letter paper.

Dumbledore's palm was still holding the letter. The white wizard, who was hailed by the wizarding world as the greatest of this century, could deal with everything calmly, but the emergence of this news made his heart turbulent.

Especially at this time.

It just so happened that he was living in his former home of Godric's Hollow.

Because Godric's Hollow was the place where he and Grindelwald met, and it was also the place where the two of them separated painfully due to the family tragedy. From then on, the two of them completely parted ways.

Grindelwald.

Gellert Grindelwald.

How long has it been since I heard this name?

Dumbledore slowly closed his eyes and calmed down slowly, because he had to calm down before he could think clearly about the consequences of this incident and why it happened.

first.

Grindelwald is definitely missing.

Secondly.

The man who took Grindelwald away must have been Peter Pettigrew.

at last.

According to the current situation, Peter Pettigrew still covets the crown of Ravenclaw or the sword of Gryffindor, and has used a particularly tricky conspiracy against him.

Grindelwald.

The first Dark Lord Grindelwald.

Even Dumbledore did not expect that Peter Pettigrew would use this method to lure him away from the mountain and let him, the only white wizard who could pose a threat to Peter Pettigrew, leave England.

"..."

Dumbledore took a deep breath.

The old man once again felt the difficulty of Peter Pettigrew.

Who would have thought that Peter Pettigrew would break the trap in this way? He actually took Grindelwald away on Christmas Eve, forcing himself to leave the UK for Austria!

certainly.

Peter Pettigrew's mind is very easy to guess.

What made it difficult for Dumbledore to guess was Grindelwald's attitude.

Dumbledore slowly closed his eyes, recalling the appearance of his old friend in his mind, and softly asked about the man in his memory as if talking to himself.

"What do you think?"

"..."

No one knows what Grindelwald was thinking.

Even Dumbledore could only guess that Peter Pettigrew might have convinced Grindelwald to cooperate, but how did he convince Grindelwald? How could Grindelwald break their promise!

"..."

Dumbledore slowly reopened his eyes.

The old man put aside his speculation about Grindelwald and returned to his original intention. Perhaps because of his anger, the corners of his eyes twitched involuntarily, and he was talking to himself like a crazy old man.

"Peter."

"I will never let you go this time."

"You shouldn't have touched something you shouldn't have untied."

"This also exposes your greed. You are such a short-sighted guy..."

Yes.

Shortsightedness.

Because it was never magic that was dangerous to Grindelwald.

Once Grindelwald appears, the entire wizarding world will cause a catastrophe because of him. Compared with Voldemort, who once caused trouble in the British wizarding community, it can only be called a little trouble.

Dumbledore thought for a moment.

The old man finally decided that he had to deal with Peter Pettigrew first, because this opportunity was really rare. The most important thing was that if he wanted to deal with Grindelwald, it would definitely take a long time.

certainly.

This doesn't mean Dumbledore did nothing either.

The old man leaned on the table and wrote a letter to Barty Crouch, the director of the Department of International Cooperation and Exchange of the British Ministry of Magic. Because Grindelwald's escape was an international incident, either by the British Minister of Magic Drive there yourself, or have Barty Crouch Sr. drive you there.

As the British Minister of Magic, Millicent Barnold is about to step down and retire. There is a high probability that Barty Crouch Sr. will handle this matter. Therefore, Dumbledore plans to let Barty Crouch Sr. lead him. Give others peace of mind.

Early in the morning.

Barty Crouch Sr. returns to his home.

Due to Grindelwald's Christmas Eve escape, Barty Crouch Sr., who was in charge of international cooperation, had a busy night and became the candidate sent by the British Ministry of Magic. He happened to be famous for his iron-blooded methods of dealing with Death Eaters. .

Now Barty Crouch Sr. had to rush to Austria. Before leaving, he proposed to go home in order to inform his adopted child Wesson Wright that he had to go on a business trip.

The British Minister of Magic must agree.

Because the British Ministry of Magic was not impressed enough by Grindelwald's wreaking havoc in Europe, mainly because Britain also had Dumbledore, who had defeated Grindelwald, in charge, there was actually no particularly tense atmosphere about this matter.

Especially when a letter from Dumbledore arrived, the entire British Ministry of Magic completely calmed down. As long as Dumbledore was still there, the British Ministry of Magic had a backbone.

When returning home.

Barty Crouch Sr. saw Wilson Wright and an old man sitting in the living room.

"This is Mr. Gellert Grindelwald."

Wesson Wright softly introduced Grindelwald's identity, and then introduced his person to Grindelwald: "Mr. Barty Crouch, I was nominally adopted by him, the current director of the International Affairs Cooperation Department of the British Ministry of Magic long."

"Good morning, Mr. Crouch."

Grindelwald nodded politely in greeting.

"Good morning, Mr. Grindelwald."

Old Barty Crouch glanced at the old man with a strange expression, and then at Wilson Wright: "Minister Millicent Barnold and Dumbledore asked me to go to Austria to communicate with the Ministry of Magic of other countries. Discuss how to resolve Mr. Grindelwald’s sudden departure from Nurmengard last night.”
