Chapter 691: Leveraging the Foundation of the World

"Except for you, no one else knows yet."

Dumbledore replied calmly, "Newt is too simple-minded and it is difficult to hide things. Besides, Elena's child is too energetic. It's better to let her torment Newt this month - Anyway, the final result will be controlled by a few of us, and she will not be involved in the specific establishment of the association. Are you starting to miss that child?"

"Absolutely not!"

"Then what are you still worried about?"

Dumbledore smiled and shook his head, thought for a while and suddenly spoke again.

"By the way, I have invited a new Defense Against the Dark Arts professor. He should come to the school for an interview in a few days. This professor...well, there is something special. If I am not here, I may have to ask you to help me receive it first. one time……"

"The new Defense Against the Dark Arts professor? Who is the unlucky guy this time?"

Grindelwald glanced at Dumbledore with a strange look on his face.

During this period of time, he had also learned a little bit about many of the strange campus rumors circulating in Hogwarts.

One of the most famous ones is naturally the rumor about "Defense Against the Dark Arts" - it is said that the unlucky guy who was bitten by a dog and was admitted to the hospital set a curse on this course, but no professor who teaches this course will eventually Good death.

Considering that some time ago, Dumbledore seemed to have considered inviting Gilderoy Lockhart to teach at the school.

Grindelwald even suspected that the so-called "curse" rumors might be false news secretly spread by Dumbledore himself, because he could use this opportunity to quietly eliminate those "dangerous elements" in the wizarding world one by one. .

"Albus, it doesn't have to be that complicated...if you really think some people are an eyesore..."

Grindelwald picked up the toothpick used to fork the cake on the edge of the dinner plate, made a wand shooting motion, winked at Dumbledore, showed a dangerous smile that was eager to try, and said softly.

"I can definitely do it for you, or rather, those young people in the sky - they are quite idle recently."

"Gail, why have you started to believe some campus rumors?"

Dumbledore smiled bitterly, spread his hands, and explained helplessly.

"The educational reforms at Hogwarts are bound to attract a lot of attention. In this sensitive period, I think it is best for you not to appear as a formal professor. On the other hand, Remus does need such a job. .”

"Remus? A young phoenix? Another one?"

Grindelwald raised his eyebrows, grabbed a handful of fish rice and sprinkled it into Fox's trough, and asked casually.

Dumbledore nodded, "Remus Lupin is a very good young man. I think you will like him."

“Good people don’t ‘need’ to work, I prefer to fly them out and see.”

Grindelwald glanced meaningfully at Dumbledore, grinned and said.

"Of course, Albus, your vision always makes me a little confused, just like how you always preferred Newt decades ago - obviously, the excellent wizards you call seem to have some bumps in life. "

"Remus is a werewolf, involuntarily."

Dumbledore said seriously, "Because of this special status, he was despised by the wizarding world. Even if he is an excellent wizard, he cannot find a job in the wizarding world that allows him to make ends meet."

"Magical werewolf? Albus, why haven't you been kicked out of school by your parents yet?"

A playful look appeared on Grindelwald's face, and he nodded thoughtfully.

"Hybrid werewolf, half-giant, half-goblin, half-veela... This makes sense. This is indeed your style, and it seems that this should be the professor you specially found for that girl, right? In other words, the mentor of the inhuman wizard. ?”

Dumbledore nodded and admitted openly.

"There is indeed a reason for this. Now that she has become the Fairy Queen of Gringotts, sooner or later her own position will be involved. After all, it is necessary to get in touch with and think about this issue early."

I have to admit that Elena's growth rate far exceeded Dumbledore's expectations.

According to the old man's initial thoughts, perhaps the girl would not start to encounter problems about her bloodline until she was about to graduate, or even later. After all, there were still a majority of wizards who liked mixed-blood Veela.

However, as Elena purified the Veela bloodline under the influence of magic runes, the situation changed.

Even though only half of the Veela blood flows in the girl's blood, the fully stimulated magical blood obviously makes Elena's body become closer to a magical creature. A normal little girl will at least grow taller after a year. .

Perhaps students would not think of this, but Dumbledore must foresee possible subsequent problems in advance.

"Have you ever thought about the consequences? Albus. If people knew you hired a werewolf as a professor."

Grindelwald frowned, paused, and then said seriously.

"And that's not the worst part - if you let Elena try to contact werewolves, Veela and other magical races floating around the wizarding world, if you don't grasp the scale properly, it will be the trigger of war. "

"It's nothing, at most it's a pity."

Dumbledore shrugged disapprovingly, his half-moon eyes reflecting the firelight in the fireplace.

"The Hyperion, Gringotts Wizarding Bank, your saints, her newly recruited members of the SCP Foundation, as well as the ministries of magic of various countries, and the Magical Beasts Society that will be formed around the world... That child is now It allows the wizards to have an overwhelming advantage in local conflicts. And I will stand up and take responsibility. At best, I will take the blame and resign."

Dumbledore smiled gently, his eyes showing a hint of firmness and heat that Grindelwald was familiar with.

"An alien war is a very good opportunity. If we can't find common interests, then we can create the same enemies. Then the kid knows what to do. We just need to pave the way in advance."

"Albus, you are still the same cold-hearted guy as before..."

Grindelwald shook his head and sighed softly.

As the person who knows Dumbledore best in the world, he naturally understands Dumbledore's plan.

There is no doubt that the best way to shape and deify a person is to offer a few sacrifices of sufficient weight. In the magical world, defeating the invincible "Dark Lord" is always the easiest thing for people to accept. Classic plot.

Decades ago, he once performed such a play with Dumbledore.

It's a pity that Tom Riddle is too weak, and he only set off a reign of terror in the UK. If his influence could be slightly greater, or he could come back and set off a bigger wave, everything would be much easier to handle.

perhaps……

Grindelwald looked at Dumbledore beside him, his eyes flashing thoughtfully.

Maybe if it's possible later...

Think about it, let that useless and shameful person be resurrected temporarily for a few days?

At this time, Dumbledore did not notice the dangerous thoughts in Grindelwald's heart and continued.

"But before that, we still have to train and guide Miss Elena Kaslana! Of course, there are also the little wizards in the same batch with her. She alone cannot handle it. The future of the wizarding world!"

The old wizard's face gradually became serious, and he spoke softly in a calm tone.

"The development of the non-magical world was not that fast before. It was not a big deal for wizards to lag behind a little bit. But now times are different. Muggles have begun to make it difficult for us to understand. If we don't change, it will be too late! "

"Whether it's Quidditch, magical animals, or magic, it's all part of magic."

"Although I don't know where the most effective leverage point is, if I try more, I can always find the right point of exertion..."

Dumbledore walked to the window, looked at the invisible clouds in the sky, and said with emotion.

"Forty-six years ago, your ambition to take over the world was shattered, but the magical world finally became what you described it to people. It's a pity... your failure also declared the power and radicalness of the "Law of Secrecy" It is difficult for ideas to sprout, people no longer dare to try and integrate new things that appear in the non-magical world, and the progress of the entire world has completely stalled..."

"Over the past year or so, I have been thinking about a question. Did we make a mistake back then? The world has indeed become peaceful again, and the irrational phenomena have improved a lot, but the magical civilization has lost its courage."

"It's been forty-six, no, it's been forty-seven years! This is too terrible..."
