Chapter 26: “The Feared Wizard in The World”
Chapter 26: “The Feared Wizard in The World”
A piece of music can be heard from a distance. Most importantly, the voice said “Albus”.
Sean froze in place.
At this moment, the person outside also realized that something was wrong. The melodious music stopped instantly, and the Vanishing Cabinet that had been closed was automatically opened.
The people outside the cabinet looked at him quietly.
Sean showed a bitter smile. Although this is the first time he met this old man, he had already seen him in the chocolate frog many times.
It’s Gellert Grindelwald.
In an instant, countless thoughts flashed through Sean’s mind, and his hand had already touched the lizard wallet given by Gringotts. In this wallet with Extension Charm, a pistol is hidden inside.
However, Sean felt that at Grindelwald’s level, even if he stood there motionless, emptying the magazines himself would not do much. Sean finally regretted it and didn’t know if one-time escape items could be drawn from the lottery now.
But just by drawing the lottery and checking the time, Grindelwald can already deal with him quickly. In the movie he watched, he was very impressed by Grindelwald’s skills.
“Mr. Grindelwald…” Sean showed an unbelievable expression. He didn’t even need to pretend.
Now he can only pray that Grindelwald will let him go in, knowing Dumbledore is still around somewhere. After all, he is just a little wizard who strayed into the cabinet.
Moreover, as the headmaster of Nurmengard, that was still cooperating with Hogwarts. There is no need for Grindelwald to kill a student… right? But he seems to have bumped into something he shouldn’t have seen.
Sean has no confidence at all. The wizard in front of him is amazing and brilliant but elusive. He is good at deceiving people. Even though he knew that he might be Legillimens, he couldn’t help thinking about it.
In front of the cabinet, the old man was wearing a black trench coat with a collar. Inside was the white silk lining that was turned over the vest’s lapels and the coat’s white lining. Grindelwald fiddled with the peculiarly shaped collar pin, then slowly revealed a smile.
“Looks like we have an unexpected guest.” He smiled. His voice was gentle.
“Mr. Grindelwald, I…” Before finishing speaking, Sean felt his body was floating.
With a casual wave, Sean floated and sat on a chair by the fireplace.
“Welcome to Nurmengard. By the way, what’s your name?” Grindelwald didn’t sit. He looked at Sean as if he was looking at the children of an old friend.
“Sean Wallup, sir.” Sean replied honestly, and at the same time, he began to recall an article he had read in his mind madly.
However, Grindelwald still kept his smile, and he put his wand behind his back.
“Sean, can I call you that?” he asked politely, like a really well-mannered gentleman.
“Of course, sir.”
Grindelwald smiled happily, “Sean, my child. This is just a small accident. You can treat it as a wonderful journey. It’s great, isn’t it?”
“Yes, sir.” Sean observed his expression and then said, “Can I go back then?”
“Shh…” Grindelwald put his index finger on his lips, and his smile disappeared instantly.
Sean found that he couldn’t open his mouth. Grindelwald didn’t speak anymore, he just stood there and looked directly at the Vanishing Cabinet. It seems that he has to wait for Dumbledore to bring him back.
Sean shrugged. After the initial shock and worry, he relaxed. He looked around. It was a strange room, the ceiling was sloping at a forty-five-degree angle, and the walls were the old-fashioned lattice windows that were pushed out and supported by poles.
While the window was open, the small fireplace in the room was burning brightly, and the armchair Sean was sitting on was old-fashioned but soft. In the other part of the room, there is a desk. This is the whole content of the whole room. To Sean, it looks like the attic of an old-fashioned house.
He looked at Grindelwald, whose back turned to him, but an idea suddenly popped into his heart.
“How about let me do a roll?” If he was captured by a Legillimens, he wouldn’t be able to hide anything.
When the thought came up, he couldn’t stop it. Sean kept his seated position and looked at the points in his mind.
[2410 points]
He could do at least 200 draws. This system has no guaranteed rewards, and this what made Sean’s heart is horrified.
“Instantly draw 200 rolls now!”
Immediately, the lottery page of the system lit up with countless rays of light. Among them, three golden rays of light were particularly dazzling. Sean stared at the three golden rays of light in a stunned manner.
Taking a peek at Grindelwald, he was still standing with his hands behind his back as if he was waiting to welcome a certain guest.
Sean immediately checked his rewards.
Albus Dumbledore Beginner Set (Gold): Learn “Occlumency”, Transfiguration Talent +1, Ancient Rune Talent +2, and a pair of wool socks.
Gellert Grindelwald Beginner Set (Gold): Learn the “Fire Spell” (Grindelwald’s version), Transfiguration Talent +1, Dark Magic Talent +2, and a collar pin.
Sean never thought that the reward this time was so amazing. Two powerful spells while it was only lv 0, six talent points, and two magic items. Although it cannot be converted into intuitive combat power, it is more than enough.
Sean saw the words “Beginner Set”. It seemed that there would be high and low prizes.
The third Golden roll made Sean’s mouth twitch.
Unknown Shard (Gold) (1/7)
He was a bit disappointed that the thing he got was just a fragment of something that didn’t give out any clues whatsoever. Fortunately, the first two prizes have already made Sean very satisfied.
Just when he was about to check the details of the spell, the Vanishing Cabinet was rumbling.
“Heh.” Grindelwald let out a hoarse and pleasant laugh.
