After hearing Draco's thoughts, everyone couldn't sit still.
Chapter 35 Grindelwald and Comic-Con
Grindelwald stood up slowly, letting Draco run towards Lucius and the others. He was too naive, still a child. Turning his back to someone with bad intentions meant he was just waiting to be beaten.
Grindelwald merely raised his hand to straighten his sleeve when three wands were pointed at him. The thing that made his mouth twitch the most was the green light. "You British wizards, I really don't understand. Is that Avada? Is that Avada?"
He could only stand there motionless and wait for the little short-legged boy to run back to his relatives and friends, to be kissed, hugged, patted on the head and comforted, completely ignoring him, a grown man.
"Ahem..." No one paid any attention to him...
"Ahem!" This finally caught everyone's attention. "I think you can see I mean no harm." Grindelwald stood with his hands behind his back. He looked like an ordinary old man, completely harmless.
But Lucius knew he couldn't underestimate this Dark Lord, who dominated Europe. Although there was only one person on the other side, the Saints were definitely nearby, but why didn't they appear was unknown.
What Lucius didn't know was that the magic circle set up by Narcissa prohibited anyone from entering or exiting. The saints outside were almost dying of anxiety, but they followed Grindelwald's orders and dared not act rashly.
Lucius thought again and again, and slowly put down his wand, and gave Snape and Narcissa a look. Snape pursed his lips and looked serious. Although he did not approve of Lucius's rashness, he still put his wand down.
He shifted his position without a trace, protecting the few little brats whose IQs had degenerated to the size of slugs behind him. Actually, none of them needed wands, as they already had one that was more suitable for them, but they didn't want to reveal too much to Grindelwald. Since his target was clearly Draco, he couldn't reveal too much of Draco's magical abilities.
Using a wand to operate magic will make it more delicate. I was worried about accidentally hurting Draco just now, but now I am not afraid anymore.
Draco poked his head out curiously and noticed that Harry and Ron, who were no longer in a tense mood, were also looking at the adults. Snape, noticing the restlessness of the little ones, glanced at the three teenagers with a look that was filled with warning and a hint of revenge.
Draco and the others received the signal and shrank back guiltily. Oh no, it was over.
"What happened, Lucius... Gale..." A crackling sound echoed through the air, and a fiery red figure appeared, accompanied by an elderly man in a dark red robe with stars. It was Dumbledore. He had read Lucius's message and thought he had found the Horcrux, but when he turned around, he saw Grindelwald staring at him intently.
"Excuse me, Mr. Grindelwald. I just triggered the distress item. You can probably understand how a loving father, seeing a dark wizard who shouldn't be there sitting next to his son, would resort to the help of the greatest white wizard of the century," Lucius said to Grindelwald with a fake smile. He knew it.
"Albus, long time no see." Grindelwald couldn't take his eyes off Dumbledore since he appeared, and he didn't care about Lucius's sarcasm. Albus...
"Gellert," Dumbledore said, his expression complicated. He'd been so busy searching for and destroying Horcruxes, and improving relations between the four houses, that he hadn't paid attention to news from Nurmengard in a long time. Perhaps, now that his feelings had been resolved, he didn't know how to face this man. Perhaps he should have thought of this man earlier; he was a prophet... "Let's talk somewhere else."
Dumbledore turned to look at Lucius, "I thought perhaps we could go to Malfoy Manor? I'll keep him under control." He winked at Lucius, who felt a chill run down his spine.
"Well, let's go." Lucius finally agreed. After all, he had to find out Grindelwald's intentions. He couldn't let someone with unclear motives, who was targeting Xiaolong, continue to watch from the shadows. But he had to show some skill, to let the Dark Lord know that they were not pushovers, but negotiating partners at the same table. "Cissy."
Narcissa instantly understood her husband's intentions, and with a flick of her wand, a massive magic circle appeared on the ground, enveloping them and instantly vanishing. The Saint, unsure of why, had been caught in the Confusion Curse and still thought their leader was still there, staring intently at the empty space, awaiting his signal.
The group appeared in the hall of Malfoy Manor. Mr. and Mrs. Weasley and Sirius, who had received the message long ago, were sitting anxiously on the sofa waiting. The moment they saw them appear, their eyes lit up and they went to greet them.
"Ronald Weasley! You actually took Draco and Harry running around in the Muggle world. Do you know there are a lot of bad people out there!" Molly scolded Ron angrily, and then hugged the three of them, "Oh, I'm so worried. What if you get lost and can't get home?" Sirius nodded in agreement. Molly nodded in agreement, but condemned the three little ones with her eyes for not taking him with them.
"Who are you?" Arthur was worried, but it was the silent old man standing at the far edge who caught his attention. His strange eyes suddenly reminded him of someone. He had his wife and children behind him, so of course he saw Dumbledore, but his inner vigilance kept him gripping his wand.
"Well, well, relax, Weasley." Lucius said, "This is a guest from afar. Although he came uninvited, I don't think he would be stupid enough to use his powerful magic in the host's house, right? Mr. Grindelwald." Grindelwald shrugged helplessly.
"Grindelwald!" Molly covered her mouth in surprise. Unlike Arthur, who always quarreled with Lucius, she and Narcissa often had afternoon tea together. Narcissa even shared with her the magic circle of Malfoy Manor, which made Molly so moved that she wanted to install one at the Burrow, and Narcissa readily agreed.
However, Molly got a headache when she thought of those materials. Although his family was wealthy, they did not have the rich heritage like other pure-blood families. Each of those materials was priced sky-high. Molly rejected Narcissa's kindness to help her with the arrangement for free. Friendship was friendship, and the Malfoy family had already helped them a lot. There was no reason to let others pay all the time.
So Molly was just surprised by the old man's identity, but she was not worried about her safety. Wizards still need to recite spells in their minds to cast silent and wandless spells, but magic circles can be cast instantly.
"Draco Malfoy, Harry Potter, Ron Weasley, I will settle the score with you later for sneaking into the Muggle world." In this awkward atmosphere, Snape drew everyone's attention to the culprit of this incident.
"Now, get upstairs right now. If your brains aren't soaked in troll snot, I think you can give us a written apology after we're done talking, right?"
Draco and the others have tried hard to reduce their presence, but they were still caught by Snape. They had no choice but to turn their attention to Narcissa, the invisible ruler of the family, hoping that she would beg for mercy. They hated writing self-criticisms the most!
Ron was fine, because he was always naughty with his brothers and wrote a lot of these. For Draco and Harry, it was the first time for the girls to get married.
Narcissa turned her head away. Every time the two little guys looked at her like this, she couldn't help but feel soft-hearted and speak up for them, but this time was different. She had to teach them a lesson this time.
Seeing this, Draco and the others walked dejectedly towards Draco's study, looking pitiful every few steps. Sirius was eager to follow them, but was stared at by Narcissa coldly, so amused that he didn't dare to move.
"Everyone, please take a seat. I believe our Mr. Grindelwald has something to say to us." Narcissa waited until Draco and the others were out of sight before gracefully taking on the hostess's role and taking the lead in the conversation. "Doris, go prepare some refreshments for our guests from afar." Doris, the house-elf in exquisite white, bowed respectfully and stepped back to prepare. "Yes, ma'am."
After everyone was seated, Grindelwald, sitting next to Dumbledore, slowly spoke about his purpose. "Don't be so wary, young ones. I bear no ill will towards anyone here. I am old, and I don't intend to do anything further. As you all know, I am a prophet. I believe that my purpose is perfectly clear to everyone."
Grindelwald looked at Narcissa, "I'm here for you and Draco Malfoy."
The moment these words were spoken, not only did everyone present look strange, but Lucius and Sirius, who reacted most strongly, immediately jumped to their feet, hastily protecting Narcissa behind them. This was the first time their actions and thoughts had been completely aligned.
How dare this shameless old man like M have such thoughts about my wife/sister?
