Inside the Headmaster's office at Hogwarts.
At this time, Snape and Newt had left, leaving Dumbledore and Grindelwald alone.
Before leaving, Newt glanced at Dumbledore worriedly.
Is it really appropriate for these two to be alone in a room?
Staring at the tea in the cup, deep exhaustion flooded Dumbledore's heart.
Voldemort's madness far exceeded his expectations, and several unresolved Horcruxes were hidden in the dark.
When will I be able to retire as an old man?
Also, he still does not know how to deal with that piece of soul in Harry.
"Let me kill him, and I can guarantee that my Killing Curse will kill them."
Knowing Dumbledore's worries, Grindelwald did not hesitate to devise a solution strategy.
Simple, crude, but very effective.
Without any hesitation, Dumbledore refused directly.
"Impossible. I will not sacrifice a boy's life to achieve my goals."
Grindelwald sneered, sneering in his heart.
This is what Dumbledore said in his heart. Even if it weren't for Harry, an ordinary student, he would not choose this extreme approach.
Of course, if it weren't for Harry, his protection would not be as strong.
But I am different. For the greater good, sacrificing the interests of individuals has long been commonplace.
Dumbledore was a little uneasy and knew Grindelwald's way of doing things well.
To save himself the trouble, he might actually kill Harry.
"Gellert, this boy is all hope."
In an instant, Grindelwald understood Dumbledore's intentions.
Combining the information that Alvin had given him earlier, and the prophecy, he quickly understood why Dumbledore did it.
He wanted Harry to follow the instructions and kill Voldemort step by step.
Just like many years ago to himself.
Grindelwald remembered that memory, and his face was a little unnatural.
It used to be like this. Dumbledore guided Newt step by step to follow in his footsteps worldwide.
For example, when flourishing in the MACUSA, he could immediately control the Obscurial.
So here comes this little bastard...
When he was in Paris, giving a passionate speech and recruiting like-minded partners, he came again...
In Germany, in Bhutan...
Now it seems that he was defeated by Dumbledore and was completely annoyed by Newt like this!
"Do you think he'd be as lucky as Newt? If it weren't for me looking at you, he would have died a hundred times."
When Grindelwald recalled his experience, he had the same feelings about Voldemort.
What the hell!?
"Can't you be less prejudiced against Newt after all these years?"
Dumbledore was also helpless. The two had not dealt with each other from the beginning, but they were both so old, and they should let it go.
"Impossible." Grindelwald interrupted him decisively. "Unless he died, I might put a flower on his grave with a smile."
"At the most, I won't trouble him for your sake."
Dumbledore nodded silently.
This may be the best result.
"Go back to Harry's problem. You must have something good to do."
Looking at Dumbledore, Grindelwald showed a playful smile. "There is a way, and there is an 80% chance that I can let Potter survive, but are you willing?"
Hearing him say that, Dumbledore laughed too.
At his age, he has taken everything lightly, and Grindelwald really underestimated him by saying so.
Grindelwald's eyes slowly moved down, and he placed his wand on the table.
"What if it was it?"
"Let Potter be the master of the Elder wand, and deliver this wand to Voldemort."
"Finally, using the Elder Wand's properties, let Voldemort cast the Killing Curse on him."
After slowly saying this method, Grindelwald stopped talking, leaving Dumbledore time to think.
To be honest, when Grindelwald heard Alvin's idea, he was a little surprised.
Not only is it completely doable, but it also subtly weakens Dumbledore.
A standard behind-the-scenes operation.
Is it just that Dumbledore will really execute as he envisions?
Will do.
In his heart, Grindelwald has already given his answer.
In essence, he and Dumbledore are the kind of people who will calmly analyze the gains and losses and make trade-offs.
It's just that Dumbledore cares more about the people around him.
As for these foreign objects, he never cared.
Sure enough, after carefully considering the feasibility, Dumbledore decisively accepted the plan.
Although the Elder Wand is a powerful wand, Dumbledore never thought he would become weak without it.
It is always the man, not the wand, that is powerful.
A week has passed in a flash, and time has entered December.
During this time, Grindelwald drank tea and visited Hogwarts leisurely.
Spend an hour or two in the Headmaster's office daily under the pretext of communicating magic.
Of course, his main pleasure was going to make Newt trouble.
He will attend Newt's class whenever he has time, standing silently and not speaking.
But this also puts much pressure on the students and Newt, who can't concentrate on their studies under his watchful eye.
At this time, Dumbledore would show up helplessly and pull him away.
In fact, thanks to Grindelwald, Umbridge ran back to the Ministry the day he arrived.
If Grindelwald did not leave, she would not have come back.
The students were also able to live a relaxing few days.
Durmstrang's team is now entirely managed by Vinda.
The little wizards at Hogwarts were also surprised to find that these many familiar faces they had seen last year had become a little different.
Everyone is a little taciturn, and their strength has also greatly increased.
Even Cedric ended in a crushing defeat against Fabien.
You know, last year, Cedric won.
This has also frustrated many young wizards, who have fallen far behind wizards in other countries.
And this year, because of Umbridge's censorship, many courses judged "dangerous" were also not allowed.
Basically, nothing is learned.
They were not happy with Umbridge, and they were not happy with the Ministry of Magic.
Some people also have grudges against Dumbledore.
On the last night, the next day, Durmstrang was leaving Hogwarts.
Alvin appeared in Grindelwald's living room.
