Parley, was the thing Orion was looking for right now, even though it was Johnny Depp who was asking for it.
"Fine, tell me what you want." Orion too was in a hurry just like Grindelwald. Same reason basically, they both wanted to go after Credence.
"Me ! No sir tell me what, you want. You just come in and started this conflict, not me." Grindlewald said with his usual acting.
"Hmm…You are going after the Obscurious right. I don't particularly care why you want it but unfortunately that Obscurious is someone I know. So stop going after him" Orion said and put the facts as straight forwardly as possible.
Grindelwald of course was laminating internally now, earlier he thought that he man in front of him had a certain disagreement with him or maybe he was with that other British wizard but this was the worst outcome.
If he is looking to save Credence, then he fell into exact opposite path as him.
"I not seek to harm the boy. I assure you that."
"Really. Then why come into contact with him under disguise in the first place. This is pretty suspicious for any person, let alone a person who is currently label as an international magical criminal." Orion just rolled his eyes at this, he wasn't having none of Grindelwald's silver tongue.
"Forget about it, if the boy need help then I am here, I know why you are going after him so you just better just forget about him." Orion said harshly.
He remembered that Grindlewald wanted Credence only to kill Dumbledore. Which didn't work of course.
Here, no matter how much history may or may not change, he just doesn't plan to Grindlewald corrupt Credence.
Grindelwald frowns at this, what does the man in disguise know? He only could wonder.
No matter though, right now it's important to find a way out. Grindelwald didn't want to give up on credence, if he did then there will be no one to kill Dumbledore for him. He certainly can't do it himself.
However, how he suppose to do that ? He looked at the man staring down on him like an mountain. He was now worried about his existence, he was powerful, probably more than both him and Dumbledore.
"Are you not suffocated by what our world have become, why stands against a Nobel cause like this." Grindlewald, not finding any sneaky way, decided to use Talk No Jutsu on Orion.
If this man in front of him join him, then he don't need someone like Credence in the first place.
"Don't you see how we as a race are at the path for destruction. We are not just caged by those No-Maj but also losing out numbers.
They are getting stronger, making weapons of mass destruction and we still stay in this little bubble, hidden away from all of them.
Why you want to stay in a world like this.
Magic blooms in unique souls, people like us are even rarer. Why stay in this cage." Grindelwald asked like he really cared about he magical world.
Actually to some degree he was, he wasn't exactly a villain in all sense, he was more like Magneto from X-Men.
Though he did many bad things but he truely wanted to do good for the magical world.
In his own twisted way of course.
"Huh, Cage you say, you don't understand what cage you are in yourself when you use that dark magic. Don't go around shouting this philosophical nonsense when you yourself are not free.
Not this cage that you talk about but rather the cage you put yourself in just to leave another one." Orion rolled his eyes, he knew well what await them who use dark magic. Price has to be paid one way or other. If not now then later on.
Of course, Grindelwald didn't understood what Orion was talking about. Though seeing how powerful he was, there was no reason for him to make some nonsense in front of him, so whatever he is talking about was not something he was aware of.
Now this was a person he can find debating for a long time but he just didn't had time.
"Forget it, its time for me to be going. Remember what I said, I will not go after you if you stay away from Credence. If you don't then remember I know how to find you." Orion wasn't planning on continuing the talk anymore.
He just turn around and walk off, even if he wants to he can't kill Grindlewald now, that will seriously mess up the future.
So he just left Grindelwald there alone and walk off. Now he just have to find where is Credence. Finding him was the most important.
As he went away, Grindlewald was left their alone, pondering what just happened in last 10 or so minutes. Both frustration and anger was boiling inside him however if something like this would stop him then he never had come this far.
So he didn't planned to go after Credencce anymore for the time being, rather he will take his time, first he has to learn more about this person, John Wick.
Though he saw that the man was against him but he didn't deny his idea unlike how others do. This explain that he too see the upcoming end if the wizard kind goes on like this.
This gives him some hope, if this man join with him, then there is nothing that can stop him, in their short interaction he knew that the man was stronger than both him and Dumbledore, though only a real right can say who is stronger but he felt that power.
That magical power which almost felt like bottomless. If nothing then Grindelwald can say that in just magic alone that man surpasses him and anyone he knows.
"Nice Meeting You John Wick. Next time lets make it a proper talk." He smiled and for the time being retreated.
Now interested in Orion and wanting to learn what this man really wanted.
