Chapter 135 Geralt Grindelwald
Chapter 135 Geralt Grindelwald
After dessert, Professor Dumbledore wanted to talk to Aries alone, so the two of them came to the spacious hallway.
"Eris, if possible, don't contact Harry too often this summer," Professor Dumbledore said to himself, "Harry... he has endured too much since he was a child, especially during the Triwizard Tournament. I hope he can put it aside temporarily and change his environment... change his state of mind this summer..."
"I will follow your idea," Aris said, "but you should know that Harry is not that kind of... obedient boy. Even if you temporarily cut off his contact with the wizarding world, he will find ways to... follow Voldemort's movements, such as reading ordinary newspapers and watching TV... imagining..."
"This is the only stupid way I can think of," Professor Dumbledore said helplessly, "Sometimes I doubt myself and wonder if I am a good professor..."
"Of course you are a good professor!" Aris said as a matter of course, "Harry is a Horcrux created by Voldemort accidentally. You must have noticed this..."
"You've even noticed this?" Professor Dumbledore looked at Aris and said.
"It's just a guess," Aris said, "The connection between him and Voldemort is beyond the scope of any curse. The only explanation is that when Voldemort killed Harry's parents, Harry was protected by his mother's dedication magic, and Voldemort's unstable soul automatically separated a fragment and attached it to the only life at the scene... The scar on Harry's body is probably..."
"Well, Aris," said Professor Dumbledore seriously, "have you told anyone else about this?"
"No, Professor," said Aris, "it was just a guess. I didn't even mention it to Harry."
"I beg you, Aeris," said Professor Dumbledore, "not to tell Harry about this. He can't bear it yet. It's best not to tell anyone else..."
"Of course, professor, of course," said Aeris, "I also have a request, professor!"
"Go ahead, child!" Professor Dumbledore said gently, "I will try my best to help you."
Aeris took a deep breath and said slowly, "I want to meet my grandfather... Geralt Grindelwald."
Professor Dumbledore was stunned for a moment, and many complicated emotions flashed in his blue eyes.
"I know he is imprisoned in the prison he built himself... the tower of Nurmengard," Aeris said calmly. "The dark wizard who once terrorized the whole of Europe has never left there for half a century. What I mean is... if he really wants to do something again, that prison can't stop him. Look at Sirius Black and then look at little Barty. I don't think he has no ability to leave Nurmengard. He just... abided by the agreement between him and you."
"Okay, I'll arrange it..." Professor Dumbledore said with some hesitation.
After the two old men said goodbye and left, Draco seemed to be a little upset due to jealousy, but after Ariana kissed Draco on the cheek a few times, Draco's inexplicable little emotions were suppressed by Ariana.
Aeris couldn't help but hold his forehead with his hands, and he completely understood Mr. Granger's feelings at that time.
The next day, seeing Draco and Ariana being stuck together at home, Airis decided to go out... to find Hermione, and Ariana wanted to go with him, so Draco had no choice but to follow reluctantly.
After finding Hermione at Granger's house, the four of them played in the amusement park, visited the park, and watched a movie together... In short, they had a very pleasant day. If it wasn't so hot today, it would have been even more pleasant. These were all very novel experiences for Draco, who grew up in a magical family.
Seeing Draco always making a fuss, Ariana giggled with delight.
"Is there anything going on with them?" Hermione asked Aris in a low voice.
"It's more than just the situation," Aeris said helplessly, "they've even thought of the name for their future child."
Hermione looked at Aris strangely, as if she wanted to say something but hesitated.
"Why?" Aris said with a smile, "You also want me to think of a name for our future child?"
"Go away!" Hermione said angrily.
"Did Professor Dumbledore also tell you?" Aris said, "Just don't contact Harry too frequently..."
"That's right," Hermione said, "Ron wrote me some letters and mentioned this. He didn't quite understand Professor Dumbledore's intentions. Professor Dumbledore asked his mother...Mrs. Weasley to convey it to him... Professor Dumbledore must have his own intentions for doing this, right?"
"He hopes that Harry can temporarily forget... the troubles caused by Voldemort's resurrection..." Aris said, "But can this matter be forgotten just like that? It's good enough that Harry doesn't have nightmares every day this summer."
Hermione also had a worried look on her face. "It's really hot these days," said Aris. "Voldemort is waiting in the dark, and even the weather has become so abnormal."
The next few days were peaceful but...heartbreaking for Aris. Especially when he saw Ariana being closer to Draco than to himself, Aris wanted to grab Draco by the collar and yell, "Get out of the way, I'm her brother..."
That morning, after breakfast, Draco and Ariana were washing dishes at the sink. In fact, they were playing with water together. Aries, who was busy with other housework, rolled his eyes. "Could it be that love can make people lose their intelligence?" Aries muttered, "I didn't expect you to be such a childish drag..."
Selena was very happy watching all this, and looked very pleased.
The doorbell rang, and Aries went to open the door. Outside the door was Professor Dumbledore, who looked a little tired.
Aeris invited Professor Dumbledore in. "I won't go in, Aeris," Professor Dumbledore said. "Get ready. We are going to Austria."
Aries said hello to Selina, and then said to Draco, "I'm going to go out with Professor Dumbledore to do some things. Don't worry about me. Just stay with Ariana." He turned to Ariana and said, "See you tonight, you heartless little thing..."
Ariana stuck out her tongue at Aeris and ignored him.
After Aries was ready, he went out to meet Professor Dumbledore. The two walked to an inconspicuous corner. Dumbledore grabbed Aries' shoulder, and then there was the familiar feeling of Apparition.
They appeared in a remote place. Not far away stood a tall tower. The black tower gave people a cold and terrifying feeling at first sight.
Professor Dumbledore walked forward, and Aeris hurried to follow. As they got closer, they saw the words "For the Greater Good" written on the entrance to the tower gate.
Professor Dumbledore waved his wand and skillfully removed the layers of restrictions. After entering the tower, the only feeling given was that of desolation and desolation.
Professor Dumbledore's eyes flashed with pity, and he walked silently to the top of the tower, and Aeris quickly followed.
After reaching the top floor of the tower, Professor Dumbledore stared at a door. After a moment of silence, he did not knock on the door, but pushed it open directly.
An old man was sitting by the window, gazing at the distant sky in a daze. The sound of the door opening brought him back to his senses and he turned his head away in confusion.
His long silver hair and beard are similar to Professor Dumbledore's, but he is meticulously groomed. The gleam in his eyes is so bright that people dare not look directly at him. His nose is straight, and his face is enough to make people imagine how handsome he was before.
Archer secretly breathed a sigh of relief, because the old man in front of him looked neither like Johnny Depp nor like Mads Mikkelsen, but an old man with more temperament than the above two combined. "Am I imagining too much!" Archer muttered to himself.
"Albus?" the old man spoke in a gentle voice, "Am I hallucinating? I was wondering when I could write to you and asked you to send me some envelopes, writing paper, quills and ink. I have used my bed sheets to write to you..."
"Long time no see, Gallows!" said Professor Dumbledore calmly.
"Is this not an illusion?" Geralt said happily, "You finally come to see me? Old friend, please sit down... please sit down... Please forgive me, I have nothing to offer you."
Garlot just waved his hand casually, and a table and two armchairs appeared out of thin air. Professor Dumbledore's eyes flashed with surprise, and then he sat down. Aeris sat next to Professor Dumbledore, opposite Garlot.
"I didn't notice you coming," Geralt said, looking at Aeris again, "Who is this child?"
Before entering the room, Aeris changed his brown eyes to deep blue.
"My name is: Aris Dumbledore," Aris said, "Grandson of Albus Dumbledore..."
Geralt was stunned for a moment, then looked at Eris with a strange expression. "Put away your cheap tricks, kid," Geralt said. "When I was bewitching people, your father might not have been born yet."
"This is indeed the truth." Aeris blinked and restored his eyes to their original color. "Just like when you decisively abandoned him... the reality."
"You...you...you are..." Geralt looked at Aeris in disbelief, then smiled bitterly and shook his head, "Do you hate me, kid?"
"Come on, Grandpa," Aeris said. "I didn't even know you half an hour ago."
