Dragon Roar Master at Hogwarts
Chapter 253: Gellert Grindelwald in the Cell
"Hello, Mr. Gellert Grindelwald, first time meeting you."
Dudley, who was taken away by Delphine, used his unwavering strength to blast open Grindelwald's cell. However, in the storm, Grindelwald just looked at him coldly without any reaction.
Delphine waved her wand and the destroyed cell returned to its original state.
Dudley looked at the frail old man in front of him. It was hard to believe that this was Gellert Grindelwald, the first Dark Lord, who once dominated the world and made the entire European wizarding world fearful.
"No matter what you want, I can't give it to you."
Grindelwald suddenly grinned, showing his toothless mouth.
Dudley looked at Grindelwald for a moment, then burst into hoarse laughter.
"You thought I wanted to ask you about the whereabouts of the Elder Wand, right? Unfortunately, you guessed wrong, Mr. Grindelwald."
Grindelwald frowned, his aging face showing a puzzled look.
"I have known the whereabouts of the Elder Wand for a long time. You once took away this magical Deathly Hallows from the wand maker Grigovitch, although most people thought that the Elder Wand was changed hands through murder. Yes, but I know that the Elder Wand, as a spiritual wand that pursues powerful power, will immediately transfer allegiance without hesitation as long as its owner is defeated."
"Everyone knows what happened later. You formed a powerful army in an attempt to rule the wizarding world and all Muggles - but you were defeated in the end, by your former friend and former lover, Albus Dumbledore."
"So the current owner of the Elder Wand is Dumbledore."
There was a clear expression of surprise on Grindelwald's old face.
"Do you already know?" Grindelwald sat tremblingly on the edge of his hard bed. "Then why do you come to me? I am just a bad old man who is about to die. I have nothing to give you."
"The purpose of my coming here is very simple - Mr. Grindelwald, I want to invite you to make a comeback and reorganize the army to launch a general attack on the wizarding world and even the Muggle world."
Hearing Dudley's words, Grindelwald was stunned for a moment, and then suddenly burst into laughter.
"Are you talking about a joke? I know you are called my successor, the second generation Dark Lord, although this is simply an insult to me -"
Having said this, Grindelwald curled his lips and looked at Dudley with disdain.
"Not to mention that I am nothing now, even if I still have magic power, do you think I will be willing to submit to you and become your subordinate?"
Dudley sighed, knowing that as Voldemort he would never be able to convince Grindelwald.
But Dudley had known this for a long time. After all, his plan was so influential that Grindelwald, as the core, could not be fooled like others.
So Dudley slowly took off the hood that concealed his identity, then reached out and slowly took off Varok's mask.
"You misunderstand, Mr. Grindelwald - I don't want you to be my subordinate, I am just asking for your help as a junior in the wizarding world."
"To save this wizarding world that is about to be destroyed."
Grindelwald's sunken eyes widened and he looked at Dudley's true face in disbelief.
"You regained your youth... No, you are not Voldemort, you are another person? Who are you?!"
"To put it simply, I am an ordinary Hogwarts student who gained great power by chance and took over Voldemort's identity. That's all."
Although Dudley described it in an understatement, Grindelwald's heart was already filled with turmoil.
"Ordinary Hogwarts students...hum, times are changing so fast, if you put it this way."
Grindelwald pondered for a moment, then sighed and spoke slowly.
"It doesn't matter who you are. After all, as I said before, I'm just a dying old man. No matter what you want me to do, I can't help you."
Dudley smiled softly and took out something from his arms.
"You are too humble, Mr. Grindelwald. As a powerful wizard who was once as famous as Dumbledore, your magic will not simply diminish with the passage of time. What you are now is just because of your long-term self-abandonment. Just extremely weak."
"But this kind of physical defect, as long as it is treated with elixir, you can quickly return to your peak."
Grindelwald trembled and looked at the object in Dudley's hand in shock, which was a red stone.
"Could it be that... this is the Philosopher's Stone? How is it possible? You stole the Philosopher's Stone from Nicoléme?"
Dudley shook his head gently and said slowly:
"To be precise, it was Professor Dumbledore and Mr. Nicolas Flamel who decided to give the Philosopher's Stone to me for safekeeping, because they thought I could use it for the right purpose - unfortunately, in my knowledge, The right path seems to be slightly different from Professor Dumbledore’s understanding.”
"If they knew that I used the Philosopher's Stone to treat the heinous Dark Lord Gellert Grindelwald, they might be very disappointed, but I think this is to save the wizarding world. To be precise, it prevents wizards from facing extinction. The only way to avoid disaster."
"Save the wizarding world? Destroy it?"
Grindelwald whispered and repeated Dudley's words, lowered his head and thought for a moment, then looked at Dudley thoughtfully.
"Explain to me in detail why you believe the wizarding world is about to be destroyed."
Dudley paced in the narrow cell, organized his words, and then said to Grindelwald.
"Mr. Grindelwald, who do you think will be the final winner if wizards and Muggles go to war?"
Grindelwald frowned, looked at Dudley deeply for a long time, and then said slowly in a low voice:
"Of course a wizard - how could a noble wizard be defeated by a mere Muggle?"
Dudley sighed lightly, shook his head slowly and said:
"As expected, even Mr. Grindelwald can't see the truth clearly... But this is not surprising. After all, when Mr. Grindelwald was active, the gap between wizards and Muggles was not so obvious. Muggles Technology hasn’t advanced as fast as it does now.”
Grindelwald narrowed his eyes and said slowly to Dudley:
"Then you mean—"
"Let's put it this way, judging from the current situation, if we just carry out terrorist attacks and massacre a small number of humans, the wizards who are still hidden from Muggles for the time being may still have an advantage."
"But if the existence of wizards is exposed and an all-out war begins with Muggles -"
"There is no doubt that the wizarding world will be defeated and completely destroyed in a very short time."
Dudley, who was taken away by Delphine, used his unwavering strength to blast open Grindelwald's cell. However, in the storm, Grindelwald just looked at him coldly without any reaction.
Delphine waved her wand and the destroyed cell returned to its original state.
