Chapter 73 Claims
"I believe that Grindelwald is not ignorant of this truth.
But in order to get more people to join his team, he could only acquiesce.
It is true that to wizards, Grindelwald was a great man.
But for Muggles, in the order that Grindelwald will establish, the existence of wizards is tantamount to a giant stepping on their heads.
I'm different. I value Muggles more than Grindelwald. I don't regard Muggles as human beings' vassals.
Regardless of whether they are wizards or Muggles, in my opinion, they all have only one identity, human beings.
As a wizard, I certainly want wizards to be able to walk freely without having to hide their identities as wizards, and no longer have to hide in the corners of the world.
But that cannot be achieved by stepping on another group. What I want is a human world where Muggles and wizards coexist harmoniously.
They do not regard each other as aliens, the difference between them is limited to their talents.
Just like Muggles, no one will be exterminated just because they have talent in reading or scientific research.
Apart from talent, everyone has only one unified identity, human beings.
In such a society, wizards are no more than a group of people with magical talents.
Just like scientists, they are people with scientific research talents.
People will be amazed, not afraid. "
Grete spoke a lot, and more and more people gathered, forcing Estragon to use a magic spell to help Grete amplify his voice.
"The Muggle government will not agree. They will not allow groups that they cannot control to exist.
Only by conquering them can they face the needs of wizards. "
An old and dry voice came out, as if the speaker had not spoken for a long time.
Grete noticed that when this voice came out, everyone present became energetic and their eyes were excited.
Looking in the direction of the sound, Gretel saw Seni Dilgo, holding up a mobile phone and struggling to squeeze out of the crowd.
Different from his usual gentleness, Seni's eyes at this time were as sharp as a freshly-baked sword.
"Chief, I'm sorry, but I didn't betray you."
Saini was still waiting to explain, but Grete smiled and nodded, "As long as it's safe, I believe you. We'll wait until it's over."
Taking the phone from Seni, Grete only saw an autistic old man leaning against the wall.
His hair was messy, and he didn't have the aura of the first generation Dark Lord who looked down upon the world.
“Yes, they wouldn’t agree, I knew that from the beginning.
However, in this world, war is not the only means that can bring people to the negotiating table. "
Grindelwald's eyes were deep, "So, Mr. Gretel, what interests do you have that can satisfy the billions of Muggles around the world?"
Having said this, Gretel was suddenly filled with confidence.
"You're wrong, I don't need to satisfy the interests of billions of people.
I only need to grow to the point where I can influence one in ten people, or even one percent, and the Muggle authorities will take the initiative to bring me to the negotiating table.
Food, clothing, housing, transportation, communication and energy, I can do everything here, even without relying on the power of wizards. "
"You are very confident." As if being poked, Grindelwald laughed a little wildly, until his old body coughed to remind him to calm down.
"Vladimir, listen, this kid is more confident than me.
Albus, an old guy's school, could actually produce such interesting students.
I really can't wait to see Mr. Gretel's expression of shock, surprise and disbelief as the principal when he takes action.
By the way, Estragon, I remember that in the last letter you sent, you mentioned whether someone in your family worked in a newspaper.
I really never thought that the Waltz family, who have muscles in their brains, could actually produce a pen.
Remember to tell them to pay more attention to Hogwarts, especially the old guy.
I must live a few more years. I cannot miss this fun. "
Grete rolled his eyes secretly. He always felt that his words had activated the joy in this autistic old guy.
Grindelwald's dying tone was also injected with a hint of vitality.
When he walked from the dark and damp corner to the sunlit window, Gretel noticed that the two old men beside him, who claimed to be Grindelwald's right and left hand, were breathing rapidly.
Even through the phone, Grindelwald's eyes seemed to have traveled through space and looked at his past followers.
Wherever they looked, many people looked excited and had tears in their eyes.
“Don’t worry, my companion, you don’t have to worry about me dying in obscurity in the corner of Nurmengard.
Thank you for your protection over the years. It’s time to put it down and take a good rest.
We, the remnants of the old era, no longer have the ability to fight in the wave of the new era.
I will live well until I see the coming of a new era. "
The style of the painting changed, and Grindelwald looked at Gretel again. His eyes were still deep, with a hint of undetectable appreciation and ridicule.
"Mr. Mike Grete, I hope that as you wish, everyone can walk freely in the sun.
However, if all else fails, don't worry, I will prepare your room next door, and you are welcome to come to Nurmengard to keep me company. "
This sentence made Vladimir, who was full of hatred, lose his temper instantly, and tears and smiles slid down.
——
When Seni and Grete left together, Vladimir Dilg was sentenced to one year in prison in Nurmengard by Grindelwald for slandering the leader.
Under Grindelwald's order, no one followed Grete to build a new era.
According to the words of the first generation, a group of old bones, what's the point of tossing.
If you want to be illuminated by the new dawn, just take care of yourself and live to the arrival of the new era.
In this case, Estragon and a group of excited old men and women stuffed Grete with a lot of tokens.
What they said was that if there was anything they needed, they could take these tokens to their family, and the descendants would definitely do their best.
On the way back, Seni told Grete what happened in the past two days.
He liked to listen to his grandfather's stories about his youth since he was a child, and this time was no exception.
On the day of the holiday, he worked non-stop and rushed to the town of Godot.
Seney told his grandfather what happened in school, and Vladimir told his grandson about his past experiences.
The two had always been so harmonious, and even if they only saw each other a few times a year, it did not affect the relationship between the grandparents and grandsons.
What happened this time was different.
Vladimir always liked to instill his own ideas into his grandson when telling stories.
In the past, Seney would raise his own questions when he heard opinions that contradicted his own ideas.
But how could those unsystematic words refute the experienced grandfather.
He was always persuaded by his grandfather's words when he was half-hearted.
This time was different, because he had been with Grete day and night for a semester and was influenced by Grete's ideas.
With his systematic and impeccable answers, Seney tied with the Saint Counselor, who was known for his sharp tongue, for the first time.
Small theater
A reply to Mike Grete
Mr. Mike Grete, as you said, my appeal is to seek the status of wizards, although I have never said that I look down on Muggles.
But in my heart, my ethnic group is above everything else.
The war started because I saw the potential of the Muggles. I was frightened by this. I don't think wizards can survive forever.
One day in the future, when technology, as Muggles should call it, can cover the entire planet, wizards won't even be able to survive.
Unfortunately, someone can't see the future clearly, and he only wants to live in peace in a corner.
The failure of the duel did not defeat me. What defeated me was the astonishing death rate. My companions and opponents died countless people.
If the war continues, perhaps we can wipe out our own tribe without the future.
I chose to wait for the future. Now it seems that I have finally waited, right?
I long to see your success in my lifetime.
