HP has a villain system but has become a popular character

Compared to the relaxed atmosphere in the cave where he got the pendant box, Dumbledore was not so relaxed.

Not to mention how hard it is to find the Horcruxes in the Room of Requirement.

With the directions provided by Vince Lord, Dumbledore and Grindelwald, who had changed his appearance and appeared in front of people, could be found after spending some time.

But the resurrection stone ring in Gaunt's old house is different.

It's not that there was anything wrong with the operation.

Mainly Grindelwald, who has been silent since he knew he had to go to the Gaunt mansion to get the Horcrux.

On the way there, his face looked unusually bad, even his wrinkles looked much deeper, and the old wand in his hand that Dumbledore had bought for him made a series of moaning sounds when he squeezed it.

Old Wand: Who knows? This person is so unreasonable that he wants to crush my old bones. I would rather rot in the ground.

Standing not far from the ominous-looking old Gaunt house, Grindelwald eliminated the dark magic set up around him, then turned his head and raised his hand to scoop up nothing.

When he turned his head to look, he saw that the person next to him had already left him and walked towards the gate of the old house without looking back.

The hand hanging in the air tightened, and Grindelwald's eyes seemed even darker against the gloomy sky. He changed back to his original appearance and quickly followed Dumbledore.

The posture, from close up or far away, looks like they are conjoined twins.

If they hadn't been under the Disillusionment Charm, the rumor about the conjoined twins would have spread throughout the village without having to survive the night.

Even though Dumbledore understood the reason, he couldn't help feeling a little annoyed.

They knew how to restrain themselves when they were at Hogwarts, but now that there is no one around who knows them, their behavior has become even more outrageous.

"Grindelwald! Don't stand so close to me."

Dumbledore, whose defense was broken, took two steps forward, trying again to increase the distance between the two of them.

The next second, the idea failed. Dumbledore's usually expressionless face showed obvious anger. He was really annoyed.

"No, no, no, Al, it's very dangerous here. Although these black magic and curses are like children's play to you and me, the strong palpitations make it impossible for me to really let go."

Grindelwald followed slowly behind him. Dumbledore listened to the aggrieved words that came into his ears and sneered silently in his heart.

He would not be fooled by this cunning guy again! Even if the liar was telling the truth!

And what did Grindelwald mean by that? Did he think that all his years of experience were for nothing?

The great Mr. Dumbledore snorted, not hiding his emotions in front of a certain evil dark wizard.

"That won't do either, Gellert Grindelwald. Please show your noble etiquette. It's easy for you to step on the corner of my robe. As a partner, this will only hinder our operations."

Grindelwald's answer was very straightforward and shameless, as he casually dealt with the poisonous snake that jumped out of the bushes and hit the protective shield.

"I am just fulfilling my obligations as a partner. I promised you, little kid, that I would keep you safe." His words were mostly nonchalant.

After saying this, Grindelwald's expression became stern, and he quickly stepped forward to block Dumbledore behind him.

After stopping the man and taking a few steps back, Grindelwald cautiously cast spells at the door.

Sure enough, the curses and black magic cast upon it are more than twice as many as those in the surrounding wasteland.

Turning his head and raising an eyebrow at Dumbledore, Grindelwald proudly shook the tip of his wand twice. After making sure that it would not pose any danger to the two of them, he kicked the dilapidated door open with an Alaho.

Dust was flying everywhere, and the dust and spider webs hanging from the walls and ceiling were falling down.

A beam of light shone through the door frame, and the startled bats flew out from over the two men's heads.

There weren't many spiders, probably because they had been eaten. Many vixens were hiding in the dirty shadows, baring their fangs at the two of them.

Seeing this dilapidated state, Grindelwald thought of the family to which this old house belonged and couldn't help but sneer.

"This is a really interesting place. Others who see it would probably think it has been abandoned for more than a hundred years. The Gaunt family is considered the descendants of Slytherin, yet they have fallen to this point."

“Everyone has his or her own judgment. Standing at a fork in the road, no one can be sure that the path they choose will lead to a better destination.”

Hearing this answer, Grindelwald chuckled twice.

"Then I can be considered to have been brought back to the right path by Wen Xiu."

Dumbledore, who was 'forced' to walk the same path, glanced at him without replying.

With the protection of the spell, dust could not get close to the two of them. After dealing with those creatures, Grindelwald restrained his expression and spoke seriously.

"I don't know how many random things that guy has researched are in here. I'll go in first."

Several detection spells were cast, and just as Grindelwald was about to step into the room, his arm was grabbed by Dumbledore behind him.

"After all, Tom was once my student. I probably know him better than you do."

Unexpectedly, Grindelwald did not refute his words directly, but instead changed the subject to express his feelings.

"The little ghost told me everything. You know I can't allow any accidents to happen. Nurmengard is too cold, and the quilts are always cold and musty. You promised the little ghost to watch over me. I have no intention of starting a war between wizards and Muggles again, and I don't want to go back to Nurmengard."

The wind from Nurmengard could not reach the Scottish Highlands, and Grindelwald could no longer endure the hopeless days of using old sheets as writing paper and not waiting for a reply.

The deep blue eyes behind the half-moon lenses stared at Grindelwald's face and were absent-minded for a moment.

How could he not know? Wen Xiu also told him.

The man in front of him spoke beautifully and even threatened him with war.

In fact, at the moment of one's true death, the Phoenix Elegy will not sing only for oneself.

There will also be thunder and rain above the distant and unreachable lonely tower, echoing the sad cries.

A drop of rain fell into the dead, dry pool, but Dumbledore didn't show any emotion on his face.

"I don't believe you need a wand and both hands to perform simple drying and cleaning spells. Hold my wrists tight and don't get so close. My old bones can't take a blow from your weight."

Feeling the warmth on his wrist, Dumbledore ignored the annoying smile on Grindelwald's face, and the two of them stepped into the room at the same time.

The faint stench instantly increased several levels as the two entered the room.

Perhaps it was rats or other animals that accidentally broke in and triggered the curse and black magic placed on the ground. The stench that went straight into people's temples came from the animal corpses in the corner.

"Uh--" Grindelwald gave the space a thorough cleaning with disgust, while Dumbledore cast the Bubblehead Charm on the two of them and began to deal with the remaining traps around them.

"It's really troublesome. There are so many complicated and useless things. Is that guy's purpose just to waste the intruder's time?"

Grindelwald complained after dealing with the last dark magic trap. After waiting for a while without getting a response, he turned around and said, "Al." When he saw Dumbledore put down the wand in his hand and raised it again, alarm bells rang in his heart.
