Connor's Hogwarts

Dumbledore leaves Nurmengard with Connor.

Connor didn't dare to ask anything, so he followed.

The two of them didn't say a word on the way. Dumbledore seemed to be thinking about something, and Connor... Connor still hadn't figured out why Dumbledore took him to see Grindelwald...

It wasn't until the two of them returned to England that Connor couldn't help but ask: "Professor Dumbledore... why did you take me to see Mr. Grindelwald? We're leaving now."

Dumbledore then said as if he had just woken up from a dream: "Oh... of course, since our goal has been achieved, of course we can leave."

"..." Connor looked at Dumbledore seriously. He didn't know whether he was telling the truth or nonsense. You good brothers haven't seen each other for decades, shouldn't you be "tender"? Connor. I was mentally prepared to sleep on the street tonight, but I ended up leaving in less than half a day. Connor really couldn't understand...

"What goal have we achieved? Why don't I know..." Connor scratched his head. Wasn't it just that... the three of them talked about their ideals, life, and bragging... How could they achieve their goal?

Dumbledore said with a smile: "You have obtained Gellert's approval, then our goal has been achieved."

"Ha" Connor was confused directly: "What do you mean?"

"Hahaha, Gellert doesn't just represent himself... There are actually many supporters behind him. His influence in the wizarding world in Europe and North America is very large. He was imprisoned in Newmont. Gad, however, was not guarded by anyone and only confiscated the wand. This was not only because of his strength, but also the result of a compromise between his supporters and the Ministry of Magic..."

Honey voiceover: I always feel that after Fantastic Beasts 345 comes out, I will be slapped in the face 3▓▓

Dumbledore smiled and said to Connor: "If you are recognized by him, it is equivalent to being recognized by the supporters behind him. In the future, your Lake family's activities in various countries will go much smoother, and you will also benefit from the Ministry of Magic. With the support of another faction in the Ministry, there will be more people in the Ministry to speak for you, and these benefits are foreseeable."

Connor's eyes suddenly lit up. He didn't expect that he could get so much support by just drawing a pie. Sure enough...people who achieve great things are always bragging, and Lao Ma will not deceive me...

That's right... Connor is painting a pie. He only describes a wonderful future, but does not describe the difficulties that need to be overcome to realize this possible future...

There are too many problems to be solved if the future Connor describes is to be truly realized.

Although the future described by Connor seems wonderful, not all wizards are willing to accept this future. If Connor's plan is to be truly implemented, he will encounter resistance in the step from the wizarding world to the Muggle world. Shockingly big...

And if you want to make changes, you must obtain the consent of the majority of wizards. Not to mention the entire wizarding world, it is not so easy to unanimously agree within the UK alone.

So Dumbledore's "Plan for the Collapse of the British Ministry of Magic" may still be implemented

The reform steps may take from the United Kingdom to Europe to the entire wizarding world and then to the Muggle world. This is far from being successful in a few years. It will definitely be a long-term process...

Whether Dumbledore and Grindelwald can live to that day is another matter.

However, even if he could not see the possibility of his "dream" being realized in his lifetime, Grindelwald was still very excited. He just followed Connor's way, because he did see the possibility of success.

The "big picture" that Connor showed them gave them hope for the future of wizards. The future Connor described was the brightest future they could imagine for the group of wizards, so Grindelwald admitted Connor, And willing to help him.

However, all the gifts from fate have already been secretly marked with a price.

It's also predictable that Conor will eventually pay the price for his bragging rights.

Connor didn't know that he was dying, and he didn't realize that he was dying many times.

such as now

"Professor Dumbledore, why don't you stay with Mr. Grindelwald for a while? You are very good friends, right?"

"..." The air seemed to freeze all of a sudden. The smile on Dumbledore's face gradually disappeared, and the atmosphere suddenly became very awkward. Connor knew that he had stepped on a thunderbolt, and he did not dare to do so. Speak.

The two were silent all the way, and Dumbledore took Connor out of Diagon Alley, and then took him on the streets of London to Apparate to a strange forest.

Connor was still relieving the discomfort of moving in space, but Dumbledore on the other side suddenly spoke. He said:

"We used to be really good friends...but after that incident...I never dared to stay alone with him in person again..."

"..." Connor didn't dare to say anything.

"Back then, I thought I would create a great career with him and decided to leave with him. But, just when I took my sister, Ariana, and left with him," Dumbledore began. Looking back:

"My brother, Aberforth, came back. He stopped us. He didn't allow me to take Ariana away. The three of us had an argument and a fight broke out between the three of us."

Dumbledore closed his eyes: "Then my poor sister Ariana was killed in the melee."

Connor was staggered and said unconsciously: "It was Grindelwald's hand."

"" Dumbledore was silent. After a long time, he opened his eyes and said, "I don't know. I don't know. That's why I don't dare to see him. I'm afraid of the truth. My child, I'm not the brave person you think. Sometimes, I am far more cowardly than ordinary people.”

Dumbledore collapsed, shaking his head and muttering:

"Connor...Gellert is a dangerous wizard. There is no doubt about this. His research on black magic is unparalleled. He was once lost in the pursuit of power...the more he... Talented wizards are more likely to go astray, and I hope you can learn from this."

Dumbledore was very depressed.

This silence lasted for a long time. After walking in the forest for a long time, Connor finally asked: "We are going to find Mr. Nicoléme, right? Where are we?"

"Well this is Devon, I thought you would recognize it."

"Uh..." So it's near his home? Connor scratched his head: "I don't usually go out, so of course I can't recognize him... Wait, Mr. Nicoléme is in Devon County."

"Yes, he has been living in seclusion here... But it will take a lot of effort for me to find him. I'm afraid we will have to sleep in the wild tonight..."

"Hmm... um." In the end, I still had to sleep in the wild. So my mental preparation was not in vain... I didn't want to sleep in the wild with this bad old man.

"Professor, why don't you come to my house and stay here tonight? My house is quite big..."
