Chapter 8 Grindelwald's Daughter
It's a spooky medieval-style living room, with tapestries of moving figures and quirky runes. There was a large crystal ball in the corner, but it was completely dim.
William sat on the sofa with a thick book in his hand.
On the cover of the book, there is a lock, and a phoenix is printed on the raised part.
William is making a transcontinental video call with Nico through this book.
William and Hermione didn't go back to the Ritz Hotel. The Aurors chased them all afternoon, and they managed to get rid of them. There was no need to throw themselves into the net.
They are now in Nico's safe house in Paris.
"Niko, the decoration of this house is really not like your style." William joked.
"Why do you say that?"
Nico was lying on a bench with huge sunglasses and a parasol over his head.
He's apparently on a beach vacation!
It was night on William's side, and daytime on Nico's side.
"Deadly." William thought for a while.
"Because this house has not been lived in for a long time, only the elf comes to clean it regularly."
Nico took a sip of coconut milk and smiled, "I also feel lifeless, so I've always been reluctant to live there."
"The decoration is too backward." William commented: "Look here, it's still in the medieval style, it's a bit like a crazy museum."
"The aesthetics at that time were like that. When I was renovating, I was still very avant-garde." Niko said in a nostalgic tone:
"It's not that I don't want to change it, it's my second portrait. If I'm not allowed to change it, he loves that weird style to death."
The second portrait of Nico was trained when he was one hundred to two hundred years old, and it also represented his character at that time.
Nico currently has six portraits, and one has been trained in a hundred years... As time changes, everyone's personality is different.
He is a little out of touch now, and he is completely different from the first painting.
William thought about it,
That feeling is a bit like Doctor Who, every time Docto is reborn, although he is still the same person, his personality changes.
"By the way, why did you go to Hawaii again?"
"There's a nice crater here. Different materials have an impact on alchemy items, so I wanted to take a look." Nico said casually.
William believes that the crater is fake, and the water gun is real.
"Tom should have come to America by now?"
Looking at the sparkling sea, Nico nodded and said, "Almost, I'm probably thinking about how to infiltrate the Ilvermorny School of Magic."
"Did you mean to let Tom find Slytherin's wand?"
"Yes, William." Nicole admitted frankly: "I went to Ilvermorny to look for so many times, but I couldn't find it.
Explain that Slytherin is on the wand, leaving behind magic I don't know about, only his heirs can get it.
How can I get that wand if Tom doesn't find it. "
Nico is waiting to get the Deathly Hallows and unlock his alchemy book.
"As for Albus, he wants Tom to find what Slytherin left behind and dissolve the relationship with Voldemort in the soul, otherwise both little Tom and old Tom will not die."
William nodded slightly, and he probably guessed the principal's intention.
Dumbledore was very old, and he was unwilling to use the Philosopher's Stone to continue his life. He planned to completely solve Voldemort before he died!
Then, Tom's rise and Voldemort's resurrection are both a last resort, otherwise the pair of Horcrux symbiotes will not be killed.
"Okay, don't disturb your vacation with Hermione. Young people should cherish the opportunity to get along." Nico winked playfully.
"By the way, you are so disrespectful to the French Ministry of Magic, they will definitely not let you go.
These people have always been stingy, and I was wanted by the whole city back then. So, be a little more careful. "
William nodded.
"But don't be afraid." Nico said calmly: "What happened, Albus and I will take care of you."
William closed the Phoenix Book and put it in a cabinet.
Looking at the mid-century decor around him, William felt like he was in a haunted house, and he sat on the sofa for a minute before returning to his safety table.
Hermione had just taken a shower, her temples were wet and clinging to her blushing cheeks, and she was wiping her hair with a towel in the room.
"What did Nicole say?"
Seeing William coming, Hermione handed the boy the wooden comb on the table.
William combed her hair skillfully and explained gently: "I asked, Nico knows that witch and that python.
The snake was called Nagini, and she was a witch who had inherited the blood curse. "
"Blood Curse?" Hermione asked in confusion.
"A type of extremely vicious black magic, the sorcerer who has fallen for this curse is called the Blood Cursed Orc.
The blood-cursed orcs can switch between wizard and animal states, but they will eventually become animals completely, and then the wizard's memory will be completely... forgotten. "
Hermione looked incredulous, "And this black magic?"
"That's right." William nodded slightly, "Nagini was a witch more than sixty years ago.
She was performed as a slave by the mysterious circus, and later escaped with a powerful muted named Credence. "
In order to escape bad luck, young wizards will suppress their magical powers, but due to lack of guidance, they have not learned to harness and control their own powers, and may spawn parasites - dark magical powers silently.
This is a powerful but extremely unstable, uncontrollable black magic. Will detach from the host and then attack others.
William continued: "Finally, Grindelwald took Credence and made him deal with Dumbledore.
And Nagini and Newt went to Hogwarts to ask Dumbledore for help. However, the principal couldn't remove the blood curse.
After Grindelwald's defeat, she disappeared. It should be completely a snake now. "
William waved his wand, and the golden smoke formed a very beautiful Asian witch, constantly switching between the image of a python and a person.
Hermione was silent for a moment, then asked, "Where's the witch with Nagini?"
"The witch's background is big." William said mysteriously: "Her name is Arya Vida Grindelwald."
"Grindelwald? The Dark Lord Grindelwald she and Dumbledore defeated..."
"It is said that Arya is the daughter of Vader Rozier and Grindelwald."
"Grindelwald has a daughter?"
"I don't know, maybe it's just Rozier's adopted child." William said, "Nicole told me that the person Grindelwald loved was not Rozier."
Vida Rozier was Grindelwald's subordinate and his most loyal follower. From a relationship point of view, there is a bit of Bella and Voldemort feeling.
But then again, even if Grindelwald doesn't love Rozier, having a child is not a conflict.
Falling in love with someone and falling in love with someone... are two different things.
"Grindelwald's daughter, took Newt's box, what did she want."
"It's not clear yet, what plan is being implemented, maybe the plan to destroy Paris." William shrugged.
Grindelwald's daughter doing what Grindelwald didn't?
A little exciting!
