MTL - In This Hogwarts Without a Savior-Chapter 472 470. Allegiance to the True Master

  Chapter 472 470. Allegiance to the real master

   Just as Wu Pingxian was launching an offensive against the British Ministry of Magic in full swing on the British battlefield.

   As their backbone, Dumbledore did not appear in England, nor did he stay in France.

  In Durmstrang's principal's office, the flames in the fireplace were burning brightly, so that there was no winter cold here.

  Grindelwald was looking at the school's Christmas pre-order this year, and he didn't pay attention to the old man who sat on the opposite sofa chair.

   "Why haven't I heard about it during this period of time? What kind of trouble did you get from the Magical Congress of America? Didn't the young man from the Graves family come to Northern Europe after the Triwizard Tournament?"

   While talking, Dumbledore pointed his wand at the bookcase by the wall. The door under the bookcase opened, and two boxes of biscuits flew out of it, and then fell onto the coffee table in front of him.

   Grindelwald looked up and glanced at him, looking at him as if he was sitting in his office, without any politeness.

   Facing his gaze, Dumbledore just ate a piece of biscuit and responded with a crisp "click".

"Of course he's here." Grindelwald looked back at the pre-order form and signed his name on it, "Not only did he come, he also followed my people, but later he met Jon , I don’t know what Jon said to him, so he directly returned to the Magic Congress of America, and according to my information, he hasn’t appeared in Europe since then.”

  Hearing what he said, Dumbledore blinked and said suddenly.

   "The person who followed you went to England, you made a pretty good deal with Severus."

   Grindelwald put down the quill in his hand.

   "Jon told you?"

   "He never mentioned many things related to you to me, but the cooperation between me and Severus is deeper than you imagined."

   "This is indeed your strong point." Grindelwald said irrefutably, but people couldn't tell whether he agreed or mocked his words, "Didn't you always know something about me?"

  Dumbledore was eating biscuits, he seemed to think of something.

   "Do you still remember the last time I talked about before you came out when I went to Nurmengard?"

   "Do you mean that I saw you kicked out of school and laughed at your embarrassment?"

   Dumbledore spread his hands.

"If you think this is the case, then of course I have no objection. What I want to say is that as long as what you said to me at the beginning is true and the promise you made is not forgotten, then you can do whatever you want. If you want to do it, I will not have any obstacles, and of course, it is unlikely to help you much."

  Grindelwald leaned back in the chair and said calmly.

   "The previous blood oath can be broken in a way, so you are willing to believe a few promises without guarantees?"

   "We are all so old. Sometimes what people of this age say is more guaranteed than a blood oath."

   Dumbledore laughed, and he took a sip of black tea.

   "So, you've been thinking about it for so long, have you considered what I said when I first came here?"

  Grindelwald's movements froze, he lost that tone of always mocking someone, and just looked deeply at Dumbledore.

   "Sometimes, I really can't understand what you're thinking, Albus."

   "The biggest difference between people is reflected in their thinking. It's normal to not be able to figure out what other people think. You are not a natural Legilimency, and I will not let go of my Occlumency on you."

  Dumbledore responded to his gaze seriously.

   "I have already arranged everything, so in fact, in my conception at the beginning, you will agree to this condition."

   "What if I say no?"

   "Don't forget that Jon is still here, when the time comes to face him, will you still refuse?"

   "Do you really think I have such high hopes for him? What if I reject him too?"

   The headmaster's room fell silent, and Dumbledore wiped the biscuit crumbs from the corner of his mouth with a handkerchief.

   "Then I can only choose to trust Jon."

  Grindelwald shook his head.

"Jon Green has always trusted you. He felt that you would be right no matter what decision you made, but you put too many things on him. This is the trust you gave him back? You people It’s always like this, I like to force a lot of things on myself that I don’t need to bear on my own. Even if you really succeed as you think this time, so what? You can live forever and save the magic world for the rest of your life ?Will there be someone like Voldemort in the future? None of you can guarantee, but you still pay too much to save those short people and things in front of you. This is what I am most dissatisfied with Jon , he is very similar to you in some respects, although not so stubborn."

  Dumbledore said softly.

   "It's just that you don't like it. When you really become a successful person, you can make decisions about what Jon should do in the future."

   "This is the only way I can think of?" Grindelwald frowned, as if he still couldn't accept some of Dumbledore's words.

   "It's not that I can only think of this method, but this is the only possibility now."

   "But what if you prove this possibility? Who will solve him? Jon now? He has great potential, but whether the potential can be turned into strength depends on the future, and he is not qualified now."

  Dumbledore's face completely calmed down.

"The situation in front of us now is like this. It's like wanting to eat chocolate jumping frogs. No one will put it in their mouth without peeling off its outer packaging. Some things need to be done step by step, and now This step is to remove his outer packaging, and if I’m lucky, maybe I can still take a bite. But if I wait forever, it may be endless, and I don’t know when it will be.”

   Grindelwald fell silent, he didn't know if he was persuaded by Dumbledore, or he had no idea of ​​answering.

   After such a silence lasted for a long time, he spoke.

   "This is the last time I will help you."

   Facing Jon's panic now, Aegina and the others were not surprised.

  The prestige that Voldemort has built up in pure blood for more than 20 years cannot be broken in a few words or in a short period of time.

It is also fortunate that they have another master to choose. If Voldemort has only one from the beginning to the end, and now that his personality has changed drastically, it is estimated that few of them would dare to engage in such activities in private that are completely equivalent to betrayal. .

   "I think your family should be able to tell whether the gentleman in Britain is the great man who has led us through these glorious 10 years."

  Hunter stared into Jon's eyes and said, as if he wanted to see all Jon's inner struggles in his eyes.

   "Of course we must be loyal, but loyalty cannot be blind. Now the person who rules the whole of Britain has obviously changed. He just bears the same name as the original owner, but they are actually two people."

  Jon's face turned pale, and he looked around nervously, as if talking about such a topic in such a place made him very uneasy.

"And then? What you have been hiding from me is actually what you want to say? Even if you find out about the transformation of the master, so what? Do you know why he became like this, and can you find the real master again? "

  Hearing Jon's repeated questions, the three of Hunter looked at each other instead, and then all smiled.

   "How do you know we haven't found the real owner?"

  Hearing what they said, Jon's face seemed to freeze, and suddenly he widened his eyes, as if thinking of something, he looked at the three people standing in front of him.

   "That's why you guys stick together? That's why you avoid the master's sight and get together!"

  "We didn't avoid the sight of our master. The madman now is not our master. Our master has always been only one, and that is the one we obey now."

  Bartello lowered his voice, and he stared at Jon seriously.

"Now that we've told you all this, Speke, that means we're trying to bring you along. How many of the purebloods do you think don't know about these things? Will be abandoned by the new era, and only those who are truly determined can gain greater power."

  Jon swallowed, as if he hadn't reacted to the news yet.

   "But now we are engaged in a war, with internal conflicts in the war, is this really appropriate?"

"Only those with shallow eyes will stare at the battlefield of ordinary wizards, Spike." Aegina said, "Why did we achieve such a big victory before, and the noble status of pure blood can be truly consolidated? It is because of us people Is it enough to fight? Of course not, it's just because we are united with the master. As long as the master can keep winning, then of course we can continue to win. Similarly, if the master loses, what we have now It’s all in vain.”

  Henry then wanted to break through Jon's psychological defense.

"You should have heard how those Wupingxian people treat pure blood? They used the gallows that Muggles would use to treat prisoners on death row! Think about it carefully, why did the situation of the war change? The present situation is due to the fact that the master has lost twice in the duel with Dumbledore! And are these losses really caused by the master who led us? These are all the fault of the lunatic who is in office now! If we continue to follow them, none of us will end well, so the more we get to the present, the more we have to make the right choice!"

  Jon fell silent as if he was completely moved by his words.

   Batllo must strike while the iron is hot, of course.

"Didn't you realize that there are no other old-fashioned pure-blood families among us besides the Parkinsons? We all know that the Ollivanders are different from other families. , we will want to pull you to join together, this is a rare opportunity, especially when the Lestrange family has been abolished, the things they have vacated will always need to be divided, then it should be To whom? Of course, we who are truly loyal to the master!"

   His words seemed to have completely moved Jon.

  Jon raised his head and looked at the three of them who thought they were sincere, but he didn't immediately agree, but took a deep breath and said.

   "Can you give me some time to think about it?"

  When he said such words, Aegina and the others already knew that this matter was almost inseparable.

  No matter how hype they say, as a pure-blood with a brain, it is impossible to agree to the matter on the spot, because Jon represents not only himself, but also the entire Ollivander family behind him.

   Now that he has been persuaded, the so-called time left to think about it is just to communicate with people in the family.

   Regarding this, Aegina and the three of course would not stop him, they just gave him a warning that was not considered a threat.

"It's natural that such a big matter needs to be considered, but there are some things we have to say up front. If you want to inform, bring this matter to the top. Believe me, none of us will be hurt. punishment, but those who speak out will be in danger!"

  Jon nodded and said seriously that he would not inform anyone.

  Actually, what they said was indeed true. Even if this lunatic Voldemort knew that there were so many pure-bloods under his command secretly uniting to contact another self, he still had no way to really kill them all. If this is the case, the whole of Britain will not even have the basis for blood rule. Unless he later brings up a group of mixed blood as pure blood, it will be tantamount to treating his theory of more than ten years ago as a joke.

  So the only one who was dealt with in the end was the one who might be the whistleblower.

  After finishing all the communication with them, they spent the dinner leisurely later, and no one talked about work-related matters.

   After the dinner was over, the guests had almost left, and only he and Jon were left in Slughorn's manor, and Jon slumped on a chair.

   "Acting is really tiring, even more tiring than fighting with people directly."

   Slughorn brought him a glass of orange juice.

   "So how did it work out?"

   "Basically there is no problem, just wait another three to five days and give them a definitive reply."

  Jon said seriously.

   "But people like them will definitely not know what Voldemort is going to do with the Department of Mysteries. We must also contact those who are truly trusted by Voldemort and know some inside information."

   "You mean those who stay in the Department of Affairs at all times?"

   "That's right, because they are the only ones who are really doing things, not like these idiots who just want to share the benefits."
