Chapter 514 The Last Question

It was the same loft-like suite. Ada leaned on the railing and looked out the window. The mountains in the distance look like white-headed old men, but one of them has a huge scar on his body.

It was left by an Obscurus decades ago. Ada once longed for it, hoping that one day she could have the same power. Now that she has such power, she will no longer be intoxicated by it.

Uncle Liu, who had not yet started his business but had spent all his money on the Middle Road, paid three visits to the thatched cottage and hired Mr. Wolong to rule the world. Ada also paid three visits to Nurmengard, but Grindelwald never taught her any magic.

Despite this, Ada came to Nurmengard during this slightly confused time, and she benefited a lot from here.

Grindelwald is a very good life mentor. What he did is not worth advocating, but his life experience is worthy of learning by many people.

If Ada's life in Rose Manor was about indulgence and enjoyment, then her life in Nurmengard was about concentrating on practice and sharpening her state of mind.

Ever since Nurmengard Castle became Grindelwald's prison alone, life here has been boring and boring, and even some of the living facilities have become problematic.

Every morning, Ada would get up early. If the weather is good, you can take a walk in the mountains and take a look. If the weather is bad, you can stay in the castle and look at the sky and enjoy the rain.

The event usually doesn't last long, and Sergey delivers fresh food every morning at a fixed time.

In addition to the ingredients, there was also some news and intelligence that Sergey had sorted out. He felt that Ada needed to review it.

After receiving these things, Ada naturally wanted to take a look, but the more important thing was to prepare for the meal. Even though there are all kinds of bad things in this world, food and love cannot be let down.

Grindelwald's life improves every time Ada stays here. Providing three meals a day to the owner of the house is Ada's rent payment.

There is a lake behind the castle, which is clear and clean. Ada would bring her fishing rod and go fishing at the lake every day, but she couldn't catch a single fish. It's not that she cosplayed with Jiang Taigong for fishing with a straight hook, but that her level is really limited, very limited.

For this reason, Grindelwald often sneered at her, and the two of them had several quarrels over fishing.

Grindelwald insisted that there were fish in the lake. If the fish did not bite the hook, it only meant that some people were too stupid to catch it. Hearing is false and seeing is believing. Ada asked Grindelwald to prove it and wait for the first Dark Lord. The part-time chief of staff has caught a fish, and it’s not too late to come back again.

But no matter what Ada said, or whether she put the fishing rod into Grindelwald's arms, the bad old man just refused to take the fishing rod, and just looked at Ada as if he were an idiot.

Every time she met this look, Ada wanted to fill up the lake behind the castle.

The afternoon and evening are the truce period for Grindelwald and Ada. During this time, the two of them can do their own thing without disturbing each other.

Grindelwald always shut himself upstairs, alone and not knowing what he was doing. The same thing happened to him when he first visited Nurmengard.

Ada would practice magic outdoors, hidden deep in the mountains, where no Muggles would come and wizards would not see her. No matter how much noise she made, no one would care.

When she is very quiet and restless, Ada sometimes goes down the mountain to visit nearby towns, or chats with the villagers in the small village at the foot of the mountain.

There were no deer in the mountains, and the mountain road leading to Nurmengard was already covered with wild flowers.

If Ada wins the argument with Grindelwald, she will pick wild flowers and make a garland for herself while humming old tunes in a good mood. There are already seven or eight wreaths placed on the shelves in the suite. These wreaths are enough to illustrate her achievements.

But everything in the world will not change for Ada, nor will it stop because she is practicing in the mountains.

In Ada's life, she is the well-deserved protagonist, c position. In other people's lives, she is just a supporting role, or simply a passer-by.

On this day, Ada made another garland, decorated with yellow and white colors, which was playful and lively. Ada walked around the castle with great airs, and Grindelwald's nose almost became angry.

The two had just argued about how to destroy the Horcruxes.

Grindelwald believed that the Fire Curse was enough to destroy the Horcruxes, while Ada believed that the Fire Curse was too wasteful and that just destroying the soul fragments in the Horcruxes would be enough.

There was no winner or loser in this argument. Both people were right, but they couldn't stop Ada from cheating. She directly transformed into a female boxer, and Bang Bang punched Grindelwald twice. This was the scene where she showed off in front of the Dark Lord.

But before Ada could be happy for long, she sensed someone outside through the castle's magic circle.

"Your bearded friend is here." Grindelwald said, he spoke very seriously, which was completely different from his usual quarrel appearance. This is Nurmengard, and Grindelwald can sense far more than Ada.

Sergey had already come once in the morning, and everything that needed to be delivered had been delivered.

It was afternoon now, and there were dark clouds outside the window. It might rain heavily at some point, but Sergey appeared outside the castle for the second time in a day. Something must have happened.

"I gonna go see."

With a hasty word, Ada ran out of the castle without even taking off the childish wreath on her head.

After walking out of the castle in one breath, Ada saw Sergei on the platform in front of the castle. The bearded friend looked very anxious and walked back and forth in the open space in front of the door with his hands behind his back.

"What happened?"

Seeing Ada coming out, Sergey immediately went up to her and said, "There's an unexpected situation in England. Please don't get excited, stay calm, and stay rational."

"I will." Ada adjusted her breathing.

In her opinion, the accident might have something to do with the twins or the Weasley family, otherwise Sergey wouldn't be like this.

"It's Professor McGonagall. Something happened to Minerva McGonagall." Sergey said in a deep voice, observing Ada's face as he spoke.

Ada ripped off the wreath on her head, threw it to the ground, and said coldly: "Continue."

It turns out that Dolores Umbridge led a group of people to sneak attack Hagrid's cabin last night, hoping to drive Hagrid out of school while it was dark. Professor McGonagall went to stop him alone, but was injured by Umbridge and others, and was struck by four coma spells.

"How are you?" Ada's voice was trembling uncontrollably, worried and angry at the same time.

"I'm not awake yet," Sergey said, "Maybe he's already awake by now."

Ada looked up at the serious bearded man and said, "No need to comfort me. At Professor McGonagall's age... you and I both know what it means."

Sergey naturally knew what it meant. Four stun spells hit one person at the same time. Even if the person was a strong man, it would be uncomfortable, let alone an old lady like Minerva McGonagall.

The other party had no scruples when doing it, and might even be aiming to kill someone.

"Two things." Ada said, "First, write a letter home, I need someone, someone I can trust; second, pack your things immediately, let's go to Scotland."

After speaking, Ada turned back to the castle directly, without giving Sergey any chance to refute her decision. Sergey would not do this either. After seeing Ada enter the castle, he also hurried down the mountain.

After entering the castle, Ada hurried upstairs and stuffed all her belongings into her bag without any arrangement. Then, Ada knocked on Grindelwald's door again with her bag in hand.

"Want to leave?" Grindelwald asked as he opened the door.

"I have to leave, it's urgent." Ada said, "I have one more question, one last question."

Grindelwald looked at Ada's anxious face, and he guessed what the last question was. Grindelwald said: "Ask, I will answer."

"What does it feel like to go on a killing spree?" Ada asked.

"Nothing special," Grindelwald replied directly. "Do you feel sad when you press an ant to death?"

Ada shook her head. Human beings would not shed tears over the death of an ant, nor would they have any special feelings. At most, they would feel dirty.

"There is not much difference between killing one ant and killing a group of ants." Grindelwald continued, "Unless you are very noble, especially noble. But... Esmeralda Twisted Fate , are you such a person?"
