Chapter 890 He Returns From the Fire
Grindelwald's questioning words made Alison panic. She took a few steps back in pain, shaking her head wildly, looking a little crazy. "It wasn't me...it wasn't me...it was just an accident..."
"Accident? Do you believe the memories those Aurors made for you?" A smile appeared on Grindelwald's lips, but his words became more cruel, just like reading out a death sentence in public. "You actually knew the truth all along, right? You killed her yourself!"
"No, no, that's not the case..." Alison's body suddenly froze and she screamed in a daze.
Grindelwald continued to uncover the scars unwillingly. "When you were eight years old, you began to gradually show your talents as a wizard, and you had various magical performances. However, your parents are devout believers. They believe that all miracles can only be attributed to the Lord, otherwise they are the power of the devil. …”
Alison's expression gradually became distorted, and the painful memories that had been suppressed deep in her brain resurfaced.
Because of her strange behavior from time to time after her awakening, her parents, who were devout believers, quickly took her to the church to find out whether her strangeness was a blessing from the Lord or whether she was possessed by an evil spirit.
In order to make money, the priest in the small church naturally chose the latter without any hesitation, and told her parents that they must be baptized every week to completely eradicate it.
It's a pity that this kind of deception can't suppress her magical talent at all. This uncontrollable power will still disrupt her life from time to time.
However, her father obviously believed deeply in the so-called demonic possession theory and regarded her as a complete freak.
Her mother was caring and loving to her as usual, but Alison could never forget the complicated look mixed with fear when the other person looked at her.
To make matters worse, the weekly baptisms quickly drained the family's meager savings. The already irritable father became even more irritable under the pressure of debt, and also contracted alcoholism and gambling.
In the end, he even attributed all the troubles in his life to her. When he was in a bad mood, he would hit or scold her. Although her mother wanted to stop her, she was unable to do anything.
Such days lasted until Alison was ten years old. During a common domestic violence incident, she witnessed her protective mother being kicked to the ground by her father. Under such stimulation, her magic power suddenly Exploded, all the anger accumulated in the heart was vented at that moment, and finally triggered a shocking explosion.
Her mother died directly in the explosion, and her father was seriously injured.
Then, two Aurors who arrived in a hurry determined it to be a magical accident, rewriting the memories of everyone nearby, including her father, who thought it was just a tragedy caused by a gas pipe leak.
Alison, who was still young at the time, was no exception and had completely forgotten the truth of the matter.
However, as she grew older and entered Durmstrang to study magic, similar scenes began to appear in her nightmares again, lingering like nightmares.
Now with Grindelwald's help, she has completely remembered that her mother's death was not an explosion caused by a gas leak, but was caused by her own hands. Even her father became a drunkard and a gambler because of her. reason.
Such a cruel fact made Alison almost collapse, and at this moment Grindelwald's voice rang out again.
"You didn't do anything wrong, Alison! It was the ignorance of the Muggles that caused all this. They didn't understand the power of magic. Wizards were just an absurd legend to them, so your parents were wrong. Attribute your gifts to the devil.”
Speaking of this, Grindelwald couldn't help but raise his voice a bit. "Think about it, if your parents knew enough about wizards and what a great miracle magic is, then they wouldn't have such stupid ideas!"
"On the contrary, they will be proud of giving birth to a witch, because you are born with the magical power of magic and are far better than ordinary Muggle children!"
"So you haven't done anything wrong. What's wrong is the long-corrupted system in the magic world, those officials who are aloof but only know how to scheming and plundering wealth.
It was they who forced you to a dead end and created this tragedy. They were also the ones who trapped wizards in cages one after another, isolating them from the whole world, so that Muggles could not accurately understand the power of magic! What we need to do is to reverse it so more people don't have the same experience as you. "Grindelwald said word for word.
Alison's originally dim eyes were filled with light again. Every word of Grindelwald was in line with her deepest expectations. Having magical talent was not a choice for her, let alone a fault!
"It's time for you to make a choice, Allison." Grindelwald said indifferently. "You can choose to continue the ritual and witness a new step taken by the magical world...or pick up your wand and destroy me and return to the decayed and devastated magical world."
"Don't be affected by his words, witch. The wizarding world is not as bad as he said. Most Muggles don't have any ill intentions towards wizards. You just happened to have a bad father who hates magic..." Farley I said very anxiously.
"Since you have gone to wizard school, you should know that many parents of Muggle families are very happy that their children can become wizards! There are also those Aurors who erase your memory without any malicious intent. Probably they are I want to protect you..."
"That's enough! Shut up..." Alison interrupted forcefully before Farrell could finish speaking, looking at him angrily. "If those Aurors were really willing to protect me, then why didn't they show up when I showed my talent and was slandered as possessed by an evil spirit? Where were they when I was being abused?"
Farrell opened his mouth and wanted to explain, but finally stopped. He didn't know the situation in Northern Europe, but even in the Americas, the Magic Congress couldn't spare enough people to treat every little wizard. Follow up and observe their living conditions, let alone intervene in family disputes. This kind of household chores has always been the most troublesome.
Farrell's silence made Alison make up her mind. She waved the wand resolutely and cut off her left hand. The unspeakable pain spread throughout her body, forcing her to let out a shrill cry. The fallen arm soon fell. After sinking into the crucible, the previously turbid liquid suddenly turned into a brilliant fiery red.
"Crazy... really crazy!" Farrell's scalp felt numb as he watched this scene.
If he was not mistaken, this witch named Alison should be the wizard who was bewitched after Grindelwald escaped from prison. In just a few days, she completely surrendered and voluntarily cut off her arm to complete the task. This black magic ritual.
"You are brave, Alison! Go ahead, it's just the last step," Grindelwald said appreciatively, not the slightest bit surprised by Alison's choice.
From the moment he glimpsed the heart of this witch, he knew that with a little guidance, the other person would become his most loyal believer.
Alison held her broken arm and gasped in pain, but she still walked up to Farrell step by step and waved her wand.
Farrell closed his eyes subconsciously. He was ready to die. However, unexpectedly, Alison did not take his life. Instead, she opened his face with a wand and drew some blood into the man. In the crucible.
"Father's bones, servant's flesh, enemy's blood?" Farrell opened his eyes again, guessing the most important steps of this black magic ritual from Alison's movements, and finally understood Grindelwald Why do you want to arrest yourself?
Although this famous Dark Lord has many enemies, there are only a few who can be recognized as enemies!
Needless to say, Albus Dumbledore died at the hands of Voldemort some time ago.
Secondly, Newt Scamander is definitely one of them, but this guy is elusive and often wanders around various countries to study the habits of various magical creatures. It is possible that Grindelwald took the risk to come to North America to capture him after missing out.
When he thought that he was honored to be chosen as Grindelwald's enemy, Farrell's mood was a little complicated...
After a short delay, the liquid in the crucible gradually began to boil, bubbling loudly, and blue sparks splashed outwards, as if there was a volcano about to erupt.
Farrell kept praying in his heart, hoping that Grindelwald's resurrection ceremony would fail. If he were any closer, he would definitely spit and stir up the pot of water without hesitation!
Suddenly, the crucible shook violently, as if Farrell's prayer had finally taken effect. Dark blue erupted from the crucible, and the hot fireworks swallowed up everything around it.
Alison was startled, her face turned pale, and she almost thought there was something wrong when she was brewing the potion. Farrell was slightly excited, but before he could be happy for a long time, a figure swayed from the side. Walking out of the firelight...
That is Gellert Grindelwald!
He was resurrected after dying once. He no longer looked as old as before. He looked about forty years old. His strong body was fully exposed after the flames receded. The strange heterochromatic pupils in his eyes added to his appearance. A different kind of charm.
Grindelwald twisted his neck, feeling the surging vitality in this body, and then stretched out his hand, and the Elder Wand automatically fell into his hand, and the curtain hanging on the right was also pulled down. It quickly transformed into an exquisite black robe and was draped around him...
