Chapter 260 Are you willing to sacrifice?
Grindelwald kept his hands behind his waist as always. He used to cross his hands when he did so, and then lightly rubbed the knuckles of his left hand with the thumb of his right hand.
He rubbed his knuckles and said in a relaxed tone: “In my opinion, if the final goal can be achieved, even sacrificing some people is completely acceptable.”
Sean touched the tip of his nose a little embarrassedly. He had never been willing to participate in such a topic – the sacrifice in Grindelwald’s mouth was not mixed with any water, and the victim also included himself.
If a magic spell is born now, the effect is to achieve the wish of the spell caster, and the price is the caster’s own life. Grindelwald will do his best to study the principle of this spell, and then use his prophetic ability to try to transform it – if the spell cannot be transformed, he will stand in front of everyone with a big laugh and cast the spell.
Grindelwald is one such person.
Grindelwald didn’t care about Sean’s silence, he continued: “But since I chose another way at the time, I chose another method, then I will do it too, Sean, you are lucky, at least you don’t have to die now. .”
Sean smiled bitterly and sighed: “Then I have to thank you for not killing me?”
“Of course not. One of my strengths is that most of the time I have a good face.” Grindelwald smiled.
In other words, if necessary, you can be completely shameless, right… Sean slandered.
The old man on the side turned his head, with a happy smile on his face: “Sean, do you remember what we said about the prophecy when we first met?”
Sean nodded, and then asked with a little doubt: “You said at the beginning that you hadn’t decided whether to believe this prophecy, but after that, with all due respect, sir – you have been resisting the destruction in the prophecy. action in the world.”
“Continue to call me teacher, or I’ll put a curse on you,” Grindelwald first corrected Sean’s name, then touched his chin, and said with a hint of interest, “I sometimes applaud myself. ——Albus told you, the more people know about this prophecy, and the more people believe it, the easier it will become a reality.”
“Yes, Professor Dumbledore told me, but I’ve never quite understood what that means…”
Grindelwald said leisurely: “Let’s make an inappropriate analogy. This prophecy is a time-delayed spell from the world, and this spell has only a spell, no magic infusion – being in a spell The person who is infused is the magic power that is poured into it. The stronger the person who is under the spell, the more magic power is poured in. When the magic power is poured into a critical value, the delayed effect disappears, and it will trigger immediately. .”
Sean nodded in understanding, and then asked: “But, whether it’s you or Professor Dumbledore… Maybe I’m a bit blunt, but… you’re all trying to lead me in one direction, which is another It’s not the same as what you just said.”
“No, no, my child. You can think of the prophecy as a balloon, and the more people who know it, the more likely it will burst. And you’re a needle inside the balloon, maybe The tip of the needle has touched the edge of the balloon, and one more step forward will poke the balloon. Albus and I are trying to change the trajectory of your needle. Of course, our methods are different. Make the tip of your needle smooth and soft, so that it won’t burst even if it hits the balloon, and I – well, to be precise, I want you to remain sharp, you can choose to burst the balloon, and then Control the force of the balloon explosion yourself. The analogy is not accurate, but your smart little brain should understand.”
Sean held his chin thoughtfully, and finally nodded slowly: “I can understand, can it be likened to the same metaphor, the guilt in my body is another spike that wants to break open my body, it The shape of the needle that does not break out is controlled by me, when it breaks out of the body, its shape cannot be changed, and the balloon will definitely explode?”
Grindelwald looked appreciative: “Smart, simple but accurate description.”
“Oh…I see, eh, but you didn’t answer my first question?”
Grindelwald laughed wantonly: “How could I not believe in the prophecy? If I don’t believe in the prophecy, am I going to be this **** principal?”
“Then you said that to me at the beginning?” Sean wondered.
“Because of magic,” Grindelwald stretched out a finger and tapped his forehead lightly, “I changed my memory, buried the seed of ‘questioning prophecy’ into the depths of my subconscious, and then Real thoughts are woven into alien memories and stuffed into our brains—the little magic of forgetting and remembering spells. Albus and I have so much magic power, even if we are too old to grow old, the size of the source of magic power is only It will gradually increase. These two huge ‘air’ will make the balloon unstable. However, when the prophecy detects believers, it is based on the subconscious. You can understand that I sprinkled the prophecy in some small ways. panic.”
Grindelwald said it easily, and Sean’s heart had already set off a storm.
He had obtained a notebook in the secret room of the Slytherin common room, and the owner of the notebook was a wizard who was good at playing with memory.
Sean has naturally studied forgetting spells and some memory magics. To be honest, he can also release them now, but it is not as good as Lockhart’s level of expertise. That’s why he understands Grindelwald’s “little” How terrifying.
[To tell the truth, recently I have been using Mimi to read and read books to keep up with updates, switch sources, and read aloud tones, which can be used by Android and Apple. 】
He is deceiving the prophecy that represents the will of the world in an idealistic magical world… Merlin’s iron pants…
Sean looked up, and couldn’t stop muttering in his heart… Grindelwald, then Professor Dumbledore would definitely do the same in order to limit the prophecy. These two old men may have more strength than he imagined. horrible.
Then my goal of filling the two castles with “The Riddlers Get Out” I don’t know that it can only be achieved in the Year of the Monkey…
Grindelwald’s face didn’t matter, he stretched his body without image and stretched: “Ah—”
“That nasty old bone… by the way, Sean, I’ll ask you a question before tonight’s conversation ends.”
“Of course, teacher.”
Grindelwald got a little closer, and Sean found that his signature heterochromatic pupils changed back to their normal appearance at some point.
It was only then that Sean saw that Grindelwald had the same deep lake blue pupils as Dumbledore.
“Sean, are you willing to sacrifice?”
This thoughtless sentence made Sean confused. He was not worried that the other party would sacrifice him now. Grindelwald has done so much, and he is not such a person who temporarily changes his mind.
Sean pondered for a while, and then slowly replied: “I don’t quite understand what you mean. If you mean to let me sacrifice, then I probably don’t want to, because I’m not that ambitious. Dreams, I sometimes double standards, sometimes arrogant, sometimes reckless, sometimes selfish frowns, I’m not a saint, I’m full of flaws – the point is I haven’t lived enough.”
Grindelwald slightly twitched the corners of his mouth: “Didn’t Albus always teach you about love and justice? I think you usually do well. Your classmates like you. They think you are excellent, kind, and Wise, looking at him like those of Albus’s classmates when they were young.”
“It doesn’t matter whether I sacrifice or not,” Sean spread his hands innocently. “Everyone is selfish.”
Grindelwald’s smile grew stronger: “Albus often said that the greater one’s ability, the greater the responsibility. The world is fair. If you are given more, you should endure more.”
Sean made an indifferent expression and said slowly: “There is never justice in the world, even Professor Dumbledore can’t do it, whether it is fair or just – but he can do it to take more responsibility , which is something I admire a lot about him.”
After hearing this, Grindelwald laughed heartily: “Okay, okay, even if you’ve heard it many times, I can’t help but want to stress it again – you went to Hogwarts too much. It’s a pity.”
“It’s okay, you can say that you are my teacher when you are outside, and I can give you exclusive authorization.” Sean comforted him kindly.
Grindelwald laughed wildly for a while and then asked, “What if this sacrifice wasn’t meant for that?”
“Isn’t it for me to sacrifice?” Sean dragged his chin and thought for a while, “That’s when I asked if I was willing to sacrifice others? Then I’m not qualified to answer, maybe I have the ability and capital to serve some good people or Bad guys make decisions, but isn’t it just me who is really qualified to answer?”
Grindelwald turned his head, and where Sean didn’t see it, he changed back to his heterochromatic pupils again.
“Yes, only I can make the decision.”
…
After returning to the dormitory, Sean was still thinking about what Grindelwald said. After the last conversation, he returned with himself and disappeared into the castle.
Sean held Dave the Winged Demon in his hand. The other party had just had a full meal and asked for some digestion exercises.
Throwing Dave out and back like a yo-yo, Sean’s hands stretched back and forth rhythmically with Dave’s “Wuhu” thought.
“Teacher is a little weird today…” Sean didn’t pay attention, he pushed too hard, and Dave’s thoughts became “Wu-hu-!”
“Sorry, Dave.” Sean returned to the original rhythm, thinking about the intention of Grindelwald’s words today.
Did something unexpected happen to the prophecy? Or has something affected him recently? Of course, the possibility of the old couple quarreling is not ruled out…
Hmm—could it be the thing I was thinking about?
Sean thought of his previous speculation: the actions of the Wizards’ United Guard since its establishment have shown the need to hold accountable the Wizards’ past violations of discipline.
Thinking of the hatred and fear of Grindelwald from the Aiken family who are connected to the other party, but little Aiken dared to blatantly choose Sean who was backed by Grindelwald…
Sean thought that the United Wizards might want to hold Grindelwald accountable.
After all, before Grindelwald became the headmaster of Nurmengard, he and his followers had already carried out several earth-shattering raids in Europe.
Hugo said that his grandfather had seen the fires in Paris, which proves that Grindelwald’s statement about the secrecy law has spread.
Sean doesn’t know how Grindelwald reached a settlement with the Ministry of Magic of various countries. There is a high probability that Dumbledore will come forward. However, he does not know the details of decades ago, and he can’t get more information. .
If it is said that the ultimate goal of the Wizards United Guard is really Grindelwald…
Sean imagined the scene and immediately put the bold idea behind him.
Come on, that’s Gellert Grindelwald!
Even if the United Wizards Guard really dare to do it, Grindelwald is not a good gentleman to reason with you.
Sean suspects that Grindelwald is likely to set fire all the way to the Guard’s headquarters and burn everyone there…
After thinking for a while, Sean finally dispelled the unrealistic speculation, and then fell asleep with Dave the Winged Demon.
…
three days later.
Hermione held up the newspaper and handed it to Sean: “Look, there is a verdict.”
Sean took the newspaper, and in the middle of the page was a middle-aged man in a prison uniform with a grim face.
“Wizards United Guard – Justice will not be absent!”
“At the International Witch Trials Congress held yesterday, the Italian wizard Franz Francois was sentenced to life imprisonment~www.readmtl.com~ for 15 years in the Italian town of Manarola, Six Muggles who were tourists were tortured to death, and used the Imperius Curse to control the local Muggle police chief, forging the incident as an accident where tourists fell into the sea. , sentenced Franz Francois to life in prison.”
Sean frowned and recalled that he had been in contact with Bella every day recently, and this Franz Francois also had an impression on the other party, who was transferred from the prison on the next floor yesterday.
Just as I guessed, the prisons on the next floor are the real criminals. To be precise, it is very likely that they are wizards who have not cooperated with the Wizards’ United Guard…
“Pretty!”
“Yes, this kind of scum should be punished!”
“Wizards United Guard is really good!”
Around, the students who also got the newspaper were all excitedly discussing. The school was naturally dominated by half-blood wizards. In the past, few pure-blood wizards like Franz Francois suffered severe trials.
Now in their eyes, the Wizards United Guard is naturally a just official organization fighting for social justice.
Some students said worriedly: “I don’t know if this is just a pretense.”
“Stop joking, look at the newspaper, how many people have been arrested recently.” Someone retorted him.
“Yeah, what the United Wizards have done has proven their ambitions.”
“Hmph, some wizards just rely on their own power and strength to get away with it, and they deserve it.”
