"I saw your participation in the Triwizard Tournament," Grindelwald took a sip of milk, his expression disgusted but he kept moving, "I have to say that I finally have a real feeling that you are only seventeen years old."
"I was seventeen years old." It's just that I might still be seventeen next year.
But why is everyone raising the issue of his age today? ? ?
Noah, who always felt like he was being stabbed in the heart, thought about whether he was too sensitive, but after thinking about it, he felt that it was normal. He is in the stage of growing his body, and suddenly he is told that he may not grow again for a long time... No one can bear it!
Grindelwald, who was vaguely aware of Noah's displeasure, said: "...?" How could there be a problem with boasting?
"What's wrong?" Grindelwald asked directly.
Noah's expression was deep: "A little side effect of traveling through time."
Grindelwald was not surprised: "The time turner is a magic item with many restrictions. If it is abused, it will have serious consequences. Moreover, you have traveled too long. Although you tried your best to avoid changing history, the time travel has not changed." It is a very mysterious magic, and no one knows what consequences it will have before everything is decided."
After explaining, Grindelwald asked enthusiastically: "So what are the side effects?"
Judging from Noah's expression and attitude, the consequences are not too terrible.
Noah raised his eyelids and glanced at him, and he heard his teacher's attitude of watching the fun: "The growth will be slower."
Grindelwald understood. He looked up and down at Noah's height: "This is indeed a terrible consequence."
Come on, hurt each other!
Noah: "...!"
In the end, the mutual harm between master and apprentice ended when Noah moved his hand to the bottle of wine, and Grindelwald was forced to give in. As a teacher, it’s okay to give in to your students.
but……
"You have to hide your strangeness," Grindelwald said seemingly unintentionally, "There are some people who use crooked brains."
Noah naturally knows that there are many black wizards who are tortured by black magic, so naturally many people will choose to "find another way."
Look at Nico Mele, the owner of the Philosopher's Stone. The great alchemist had to live a secluded life, ignoring things in the magical world, and lived as a legendary figure in the magical world, or maybe A backdrop.
Although Noah does not possess the Philosopher's Stone, if his abnormality is discovered, there will always be some idiots who think that he has something similar, and swoop over like smelly flies, trying to achieve their goals regardless of the consequences. the goal of. Noah knew this all too well. He had seen the madness of those dark wizards when he was a baby who couldn't run around.
"Okay, how does it feel to participate in the Triwizard Tournament?" Grindelwald returned to the topic he was concerned about, "The fact that you subdued the dragon has been widely spread."
Noah was helpless: "It's not considered subduing, it's just a little trick."
"It's not a good habit to be overly modest." Grindelwald disagreed, but he changed his tone and said, "But there's nothing wrong with it. There's no need to praise you too much for what is natural. You should let Albus look at you. How excellent.”
Noah: "..." OK.
Even though the fight between the two is over, it's clear that Grindelwald feels that the fight for the next generation can still be replaced.
Their conversation didn't last long. Grindelwald soon felt tired. Noah knew it was time to leave. He stood up and prepared to leave.
"By the way," Grindelwald said suddenly, "If you want to find a book, you can find Naban. He has the key to the library."
Noah was startled: "I really can't hide anything from you. I understand."
He left the attic, and the house elf was already guarding the stairs: "Master."
Naban was the new house elf who took office recently. It was the first time for him to see Noah, but this did not prevent him from showing respect.
"I need to go to the library."
"plz follow me."
They were not going to Grindelwald's private library. Noah had the key to Grindelwald's private residence. He had already read most of the books in it, and they did not contain the content he needed. Although Grindelwald also likes to study dangerous black magic, he is not overly obsessed with it. In his opinion, he will not look at magic that is useless. Therefore, the magic books in the private house are all powerful magic, and many of them have many notes written by Grindelwald. m.
But what Noah needs are those strange books of black magic. Those books were discarded in another place, which is the library mentioned by Grindelwald - underground in the Nurmengard Castle warehouse.
I don’t know why I put those black magic books in the underground secret room of the warehouse. But wizards in the wizarding world seem to have a special liking for secret rooms. Even Noah's house will build a special basement. But that one has been used as an underground warehouse by the Lannisters.
The house elf inserted a large silver key into a keyhole on the floor. After turning it with all his strength, the door to the secret room was finally opened. The stone bricks sank and gradually turned into a staircase extending into the darkness.
"Master, this is the key to the study." The house elf respectfully pulled out the key and presented it to Noah.
Noah took the key, thanked him softly and stepped into the stairs leading to the underground.
As he stepped on more than ten steps, the stone slabs he stepped on gradually rose upwards, once again sealing the tunnel door tightly.
Layers of torches lit up, illuminating the dark passage for Noah.
…
"The power of the Obscurus is too violent, so it will destroy your body," Newt said seriously to Eve, "Just as you will grow, the Obscurus will also grow with you, but it will grow faster than you. It’s much faster. When one day you can’t suppress it anymore, you will..."
He will die like the other Obscurials.
"But if you peel it off in time, it won't be too late." Newt said seriously, "I have studied the Obscurus and can help you peel it off."
Eve lowered her eyes: "Professor, if I don't peel it off, is there any other way?"
Newt was stunned and frowned: "Why? Can you tell me the reason?"
He was answered by a long silence. Tina, who had been sitting aside and listening quietly, looked at Eve. As a former Auror, she could tell that Eve had never thought of peeling off the Obscurus. But she was just as puzzled as her husband. Is there any necessary reason?
Eve ignored his question and asked, "If I suppress Obscurus's growth, can this problem be solved?"
After a long silence, Newt said: "Theoretically, this is not feasible. Obscurus will eventually grow, it's just a matter of sooner or later."
Some people died, but not completely...
