In the territory of the Jovonovich family, the most indispensable thing is all kinds of thorns.
Although the place they were in was not a castle, it was accompanied by mountains.
"John," Uncle Alexi came to John after the party.
This uncle was also the one who left the potion to John. He was different from Andrei and Seryosha.
It gives people a feeling of youth and wisdom.
"Since you choose to come back here, it also means accepting yourself." Alexei threw a piece of nut out.
A crow flew down and ate the nut.
Alexei smiled and said: "You haven't drank from that bottle yet, have you?"
"I want to find out," John said without concealment, "about Jovonovich and that unusual bottle of potion."
"You are very smart and also very cautious." Alexey sighed with emotion. "You are like a gift from God to Jovonovich."
John said nothing.
He knew that his grandfather's family valued him very much, which could be seen from his name.
Yadani, this name has another meaning, God's gift.
Before he learned about the special nature of this world, John never thought about the meaning of this name, nor did he pay attention to the special nature of his grandfather's family.
But when the bottle of potion and his uncles appeared at home, he discovered that this kind-hearted family hid secrets connected to the magical world.
"At midnight, all secrets are revealed high in the mountains."
Alexei smiled and rubbed John's head, and said with some reluctance in his eyes: "If possible, I hope you can accept us, the rest of us..."
His voice was swallowed up by the wind behind him, and Alexei went to the front hall and joined the crowd of people pouring wine for Watson.
The family brews its own wine, and there is a wine cellar hidden under the manor.
Watson wanted to escape, but he couldn't.
Several uncles held him there. If my grandfather hadn't asked them to respect their son-in-law, they would have left him lying down.
John looked up at the moon, and an owl flew over, bringing a letter with him.
Glancing back at his uncles, he took down the letter and opened it.
"Grindelwald disappears." He stared at the line in the letter.
Rubbing the letter in the palm of his hand a few times, the flame burned the letter into ashes and dispersed it.
He closed his eyes, thoughts turning around in his mind.
It's very strange, the appearance of Grindelwald.
"He came for the Holy Grail, but how did he know?"
The doubts in his heart never dissipated, and John's fingers unconsciously rubbed the ring.
Grindelwald is different from Voldemort, and John has almost zero knowledge of him.
The only interaction he had with Grindelwald was at the Ministry of Magic.
Earlier, he had only seen the existence of Grindelwald on the card about Dumbledore.
That man was an extreme person, and during Grindelwald's time, his followers were all over Europe.
What they want to do is not only to rule the magical world, but also to break the law of secrecy and put wizards above Muggles.
If Voldemort is a purist, then Grindelwald is a magician.
"This man is more troublesome than Voldemort."
This kind of situation where the enemy is in darkness and we are in open light is what John hates the most.
Besides, Grindelwald took away Dumbledore's Elder Wand, which made it even more difficult.
"The war in 1945? Dumbledore defeated Grindelwald."
The battle that year ended with Dumbledore winning and Grindelwald being sent to Nurmengard.
After fifty years, it suddenly appeared again.
Pulling his thoughts back, John remembered the strange feeling he had when he met Grindelwald.
"Forget it, Dumbledore will deal with his old friends. Regarding the Horcruxes in the Order of the Phoenix, we still need to find a way to get them."
When the sky falls, Dumbledore is there to hold it up. Judging from the attitudes of Grindelwald and Voldemort, the two of them cannot be considered a cooperative relationship. At most, they each get what they need.
In this way, there is no need to worry about two Dark Lords appearing in Hogwarts at the same time.
Wait until midnight arrives.
John went to the mountains, a place where John had been taken hunting, so it had an influence.
There was a cave in the mountains. Andre took him there mysteriously, but was later discovered by Mrs. Wick and brought back.
Setting foot on the mountain again, John couldn't see the reason before, but now, John saw that the elements were particularly active.
"Are my uncles also wizards?"
Suppressing the doubts in his heart, John continued to move forward.
A bear roared, and he turned around to see a large brown bear nearly two meters tall.
"Roar--!"
The brown bear stood upright and slapped the trunk of the tree, breaking the small tree.
It spotted John and rushed towards him quickly.
The huge movement shook the birds in the trees and flew up. 33
John looked calm and said calmly: "Stop."
The brown bear didn't listen to anyone's words. He stood up towards John and tried to kill the ant with both hands.
John raised his eyes slightly, his pupils quickly contracted into vertical pupils, and a pressure swept out, making the brown bear freeze.
The pressure of the superior predator made the brown bear's fierce expression disappear, and it whimpered to express its begging for mercy.
"This bear..." John recalled the little bear cub in the mountains.
Looking at the brown bear lying down with its belly exposed, it was begging for mercy.
"It's quite spiritual." John walked up and rubbed the brown bear's belly with his hands.
"It feels good. As a fur, it will be very comfortable."
He stared at the brown bear, and after he almost made the brown bear cry, he smiled and patted the brown bear's belly, "Let you go."
The brown bear quickly climbed up and stretched out his tongue to please John and licked his arm.
John sent the brown bear away and moved on.
"Is that thing a test?"
He felt that the appearance of the brown bear was not that simple, and besides, it was still in Jovonovic's territory.
Unless my uncles allow it, these things won't be around.
Heading towards the mountains, John encountered something more.
He saw three lynxes and a wild lion.
The lynx was so fast and furious that the lion jumped as if it were flying.
In the dense grass, the cold venomous snakes have a dangerous color.
Even though the folk customs of this country are strong, are there too many of these things?
As they approached the entrance to the mountain cave, John heard the howl of wolves.
It was a silver wolf, stronger than ordinary wolves, and its hair glowed silver in the moonlight.
Silver Wolf just looked at John from a distance.
After John looked at him, he stepped into the cave.
There is a tunnel in this cave.
The darkness is so deep that it stretches in like a big snake that swallows everything.
John has night vision and can see some strange writings and murals on the walls.
The mural above is strange because there are some magical creatures in it.
For example, there are griffins, hippogriffs, acromantulas, werewolves, banshees...
There were some things John hadn't seen either.
For example, there are some Vikings in it. They traveled across the ocean, and there were huge creatures in the sea that were terrifying.
After some distance, the people on the mural also changed.
They are no longer Vikings, but wear plate armor and leather clothes. They are recruited by the kingdom and pick up swords to kill magical creatures that appear in the kingdom.
The kingdom gave away its treasure, which was used to purchase things from a wizard-looking man.
John also saw a mandrake.
With the help of wizard's treasures, those people can deal with magical creatures more easily.
Until one day, the wizard no longer wanted to continue trading with them.
Without the help of the wizard, the group suffered heavy losses.
In order to regain the power similar to that of the wizard, they found a magician at a spring.
The wizard who left was not a good person. He wanted to take away the king's wife but was blocked.
In order to take revenge on the king, the wizard caused a plague to spread throughout the kingdom.
They traded with the mage and got a potion.
After drinking the potion, they become more powerful.
The only disadvantage of this kind of power is that it only has a lifespan of a few years.
They were chasing the evil wizard for the king, and after killing him, only a young man survived.
The remaining young men were rewarded by the king.
The young man received a fief and enough gold to last ten lifetimes.
The young man was extra cautious when dealing with the spring water mage, and he did not drink the potion.
After a long period of research, the young man changed the potion.
And he also became a lord, raising orphans who survived one disaster after another.
When they grew up, they still served the kingdom.
until one day.
By decree of the kingdom, the tasks of those men changed.
In addition to hunting magical creatures, they have another mission.
Get rid of those guys who will harm the kingdom for the king.
This task is...
John brushed his fingers over the figure with the silver sword on his back.
"Witch hunt."
...
Some people died, but not completely...
