章節 363: Chapter 362 "Harbinger of Chaos"
The spikes that pop up from the back of the badge are not the main use of it. The light blue with metallic luster on it is the thing that caught his attention, and if you get close, you can smell a pungent smell.
Sean pinched the badge and looked at Grindelwald, "Potion?"
Grindelwald did not say anything but looked to the rear. On the small platform in the middle of the stairs, the group of officials from the Ministry of Magic, pure-blood family members, etc., were talking. They noticed Grindelwald's gaze, and regardless of their inner thoughts, they all smiled and waved to him.
"So you already know, Sean." Grindelwald smiled back.
"I have some guess…" Sean muttered.
Grindelwald glanced at him with satisfaction, "It's not bad."
Sean twitched the corner of his mouth, "I didn't expect it. I didn't realize it until I discovered something was wrong with this rain."
Grindelwald stretched out his hand and caught a few drops of rainwater with a relaxed and comfortable tone, "There is no need to think about it too much."
He led Sean to the foot of the mountain and greeted the crowd around him from time to time. Grindelwald smiled, but his voice was cold.
"I thought that it might be a good choice to rise peacefully in today's social system. Just like now, I have won the support of the vast majority of people."
"If you don't get the support, you resort to other choices?"
Grindelwald laughed heartily, "Perhaps. I'm much better than them, and the stronger always have more power."
He walked to the bridge and said with a smile, "Imagine, apart from the election for the new president of the International Confederation of Wizards, where else can so many people who are either powerful or powerful gather at the same time?"
Sean has already rolled a lot of eyes in his heart.
When Dave reminded Sean that something was wrong with the rain, Sean immediately thought of Grindelwald's real purpose. It is possible that the Qilin tripping, himself and Jacob chosen by the Qilin, all of them is a plan that Grindelwald thought carefully.
His target was the wizarding world present, whether it was a senior official of the Ministry of Magic or a pure-blood family or an outstanding wizard and witch who was present right now.
Sean looked at Grindelwald with a calm expression. Under that calm face, there was unparalleled confidence and the courage to fight against the madness of the whole world. If his speech is unsuccessful, he will grab all the opponents present and destroy them to stand in the position he wants.
"If the speech is not successful, you are going to do something to them, right?" Sean said softly.
Grindelwald smiled, "Although I have always been a gentle person, time has worn away my edges and corners. I have started to think like Albus, using rougher methods and simpler thinking to achieve the goal."
He reached out to catch a drop of rain and asked, "What's in it?"
"An eggshell powder of the Fire Crab mixed with some tree sap of some Merkle tree," Grindelwald said in a relaxed and cheerful tone.
"No wonder I was also affected," Sean muttered.
Combining these two magic materials can make people feel dizzy, and their emotions are more easily ignited.
Grindelwald continued, "Of course, all my words are from the bottom of my heart. My follow-up plan is not even used since they have endured those for a long time."
"If that doesn't go well, are you going to execute the second phase?" Sean said.
"Yeah, just add some dew from a ghosted plant from the cemetery picked on the full moon. Although this thing is very rare, I happened to cultivate some."
The mixed liquid of the first two materials will make people's thinking dizzy and emotional, and if that is added, this will create a poison that would paralyze the people. The preparation of this potion is very simple, but due to the scarcity of raw materials, this potion has long been abandoned.
Sean also read it in Snape's notes.
He lifted the badge to the tip of his nose and sniffed it. The pungent smell gave him a clue, "Is this a stimulation potion?"
"It seems that you have learned potions well." Grindelwald raised his brows, "I didn't expect it to be so simple today, and I didn't need to do it."
Grindelwald continued, "The Guards thought my men were trying to prevent Newt from doing the ritual, but I didn't care at all. My followers had already figured out the guard's position and specific number during the chase. "
He looked at Sean, and Sean shrugged, "If the speech doesn't work, you will rain a second time to make everyone lose their ability to resist, and the saints use mental stimulation potions to recover them. After that?"
"Get everyone present. Half the wizarding world will become my prisoner, including several ministers and their secretaries." Grindelwald concluded.
Sean sighed.
He looked towards the sky and curiously asked, "What's there?"
Grindelwald became proud this time, "Sean, do you know that failure is not a terrible thing and standing up from failure is not something to be proud of? Because learning from failure is what we really need."
"I have to admit that I still hate magical animals, but I never refuse this way of gaining control. What's more, Professor Scamander has demonstrated this before, so I admired him a little bit."
Sean squinted his eyes, looked up at the sky, and could faintly see black shadows hovering in the dark clouds.
"Thunderbird?" he asked.
"Correct, and 100 points to Nurmengard." Grindelwald snapped his fingers, "Four thunderbirds, two are responsible for the first rain, and two are responsible for the second rain. It looks a bit much, but if it works, it works."
Sean didn't know what to say and finally rolled his eyes. The two walked casually in the small town of Bhutan, chatting easily about the plan that he wanted to do.
The streets are full of fanatical wizards who are chasing and killing the Guards, and as soon as they see Grindelwald, they will burst into cheers and applause. They will even step on the faces of the Guards under their feet after seeing him.
Grindelwald greets everyone and smiles.
"To be honest, I don't want to do this kind of violent behavior. But they have recognized me."
Sean followed Grindelwald through the small town of Bhutan, and finally, the two stood on an empty cliff. With his hands behind his back, Grindelwald squinted his eyes slightly and looked into the distance.
"I've heard that this place in Bhutan if you listen carefully, the past will whisper to you."
Sean pricked up his ears and listened. In the village and town, there were the sounds of the Guards fleeing, magic spells exploding, and his followers shouting frantically.
Grindelwald laughed, "But isn't the past always covered by the future?"
Sean looked at him, hesitated for a while, and finally asked, "What are you and Professor Dumbledore planning?"
Grindelwald's froze for a moment.
"What are we planning? I need to do my part well, and he does his well." Grindelwald's voice was calm.
Sean was about to ask a little more, but Grindelwald continued to speak.
"There will be a time when we face each other, and one must die."
Grindelwald's words made Sean feel like he was falling into an ice cave, and his eyes widened suddenly.
"Professor? You're joking, right?" he said with a forced smile.
Grindelwald turned his head with coldness in his eyes that Sean could not understand at all. He suddenly smiled again, returning to his usual happy expression.
"Of course, it was a joke."
Sean fell silent.
The two were silent for a while, and Grindelwald said, "Why don't you ask me about my next plan?"
"What plan?" Sean asked.
Grindelwald laughed.
"Of course, the group of people who are trying to resist me, the traitors, must be killed first." He raised his head, stretched out his hands, and closed his eyes, "Killing them all first is the first priority."
His pleasant voice was mixed with a horrifying killing intent. This was the first time Sean felt such a terrifying killing intent from Grindelwald. This killing intent gave him a glimpse of the tip of the iceberg of Grindelwald's huge magic power source.
The killing intent aroused the magic power, and the magic power changed the air. Gravel and wet soil floated and trembled, and the rain directly avoided him.
Only Sean's hair stood on end beside Grindelwald. Sean was stunned to realize that he didn't realize how powerful wizards at the level of Grindelwald and Dumbledore were.
Grindelwald's killing intent only lasted for a while, and the air and rain returned to calm, just like Grindelwald's face. What made him like this must have something to do with Dumbledore.
Sean suddenly thought of something, the Blood Pact.
Sean frowned. The battle between Grindelwald and Dumbledore was obviously just for a show, Grindelwald told him himself.
On the cliff's edge, Grindelwald glanced at Sean, his tone relaxed, "Sean, if Albus and I were fighting, which side would you be on?"
This made Sean's heart waver, and they didn't know what to say.
Grindelwald didn't seem to care and continued, "After dealing with the leech in our world, you know what I'm going to do next, right?"
Sean stayed where he was. He looked at him in astonishment and said, "But you promised me that..."
"I promised to you not to kill innocent people indiscriminately. This promise is still valid, but," Grindelwald showed a smile, "Isn't it normal for the Dark Lord not to keep his promise?"
He walked slowly towards the town without looking back.
"Sean, as your teacher, and you as my favorite student. I allow you to fight against me if you don't agree with my ideas."
Grindelwald left, leaving only Sean, who was silent on the edge of the cliff.
After a moment, he looked toward the cliff, "Ugh, I shouldn't have come to this place."
----
It was already late at night when Sean returned to Hogwarts, and he even missed the afternoon class, but the professors didn't care about it.
Mainly because there was no Potions class in the afternoon, the second was because Sean's grades were good enough, and the third was because the biggest news in the wizarding world was too shocking.
Grindelwald released a speech called "Wizard Awakening Manifesto" at the election, and with this speech, he was successfully elected as the president of the International Confederation of Wizards.
Cyril Marshall, the former head of the Guards, tried to assassinate Grindelwald on the spot and failed. The Guards' true intention was exposed to the world. Grindelwald's first decree after taking office was to disband the Guards and interrogate all of the Guards' parties involved.
The current head of the Guards, Allison, disappeared that day, and an arrest warrant has been issued to the whole world.
The Ministry of Magic of many countries has raised new doubts about the position of the Confederation president, saying that they will not follow the order for the time being due to the unclear situation.
The wizarding world was in chaos overnight.
Sean received a belated birthday present from Grindelwald.
The "Messenger" brought with him a jewel-encrusted, glittering diadem with a motto engraved on its rim.
"Wit beyond measure is man's greatest treasure."
