John obviously changed his appearance, but he still prepared for battle immediately.
Without him, John was facing a man holding the Elder Wand who had once challenged the greatest wizard Dumbledore to a duel.
Facing Voldemort, John can give him alms as a superior.
But facing Grindelwald, John felt that there was nothing wrong with his mind.
Grindelwald is the only one who appears here, and this church seems to be his temporary stop.
"Long time no see, John."
Seeing John, Grindelwald was not so nervous.
He put his hands behind his back and said, "I always felt that fate would bring us together again."
Seeing John's alert look, he started walking casually.
The priest's clothes were worn with a demagogic feeling.
If there were any residents nearby, John had reason to suspect that they were all bewitched by this man.
"You are still as vigilant as ever. This is a quiet enough place." Grindelwald was not able to read John's thoughts, but he was smart and good at observing people's hearts.
If he were a Muggle, he would be a psychology professor.
"Maybe we won't be enemies, John," Grindelwald's boots stepped on the wooden floor, and the sound of each step seemed to be filled with magic. "We have similar ideals."
"Instead of letting others get in the way, why don't we cooperate and have a battle to win later?"
Grindelwald's voice was like poison. That mouth made many people become his saints, and how many people were confused and confused by it.
John said calmly: "Do you think it's possible?"
"You seem to have forgotten that if it weren't for you, nothing would happen now." John didn't forget that this guy made him fall short.
If it weren't for Grindelwald, he wouldn't be here now. Voldemort was given to him as a small gift as early as June last year.
Now the culprit of everything came over and said to himself, shall we cooperate?
John can only say that this is something that needs to be dealt with.
"Exchange of equal value is the basic principle of alchemists, isn't it?" Grindelwald said calmly without any panic, "This was the condition Voldemort used to find me."
Hearing his own words, John felt a strange feeling in his heart.
John said solemnly: "Then you should also know that not everyone can afford the alchemist's deal."
"Making a deal with Death is a bold move." Grindelwald looked at John with his unique eyes, "No one would do this except you."
"Don't tell me you know me very well," John sneered, "We've only met twice."
Grindelwald smiled evilly and pulled out the Elder Wand.
At this moment, John stared at Grindelwald with all his heart.
"Don't even think about taking action," Grindelwald said calmly. "Although there are few people here, we will still attract some nasty guys."
There was no doubt that the annoying guy was an Auror.
The two people's current situations are surprisingly similar.
They don't want to expose their whereabouts.
And the fight between two people will definitely alarm the people around them.
That's why John didn't use that sword until now.
"We'll meet a third time, Joel."
Seeing that John didn't make a move, Grindelwald waved his wand and disappeared.
John waited there for a few minutes, and after confirming that Grindelwald had not returned, he put away his sword.
"Joel? Strange title." John waved his wand.
The super-sensible spell is activated.
The whole church situation comes to mind.
He made sure there was no one else here.
In the previous confrontation with Grindelwald, John had to be careful when using Apparition.
When masters compete with each other, the flaw often only lasts a moment.
So even if he knew that there was a seventh-level magician and the existence of the Elder Wand opposite him, John never showed any signs of it.
After resting for a while in the church, John began to think about his encounter with Grindelwald.
"Is it a coincidence?" No one else knew that he came to this place, and that he could meet Grindelwald. There was no other explanation other than coincidence.
They are all hiding their whereabouts, and meeting them in this kind of place seems to be less unusual.
What makes John confused is, where are the saints on the other side?
Could it be that only Grindelwald came out this time?
Or is it that he just arrived like me and didn’t have time to develop the saints?
No matter who it is, it is a good thing to be able to escape unharmed after encountering Grindelwald.
If it weren't for the Elder Wand, John might still try to see if he could fight back.
Unfortunately, the Elder Wand has bug abilities after all.
Across two levels, John faced a high probability and still lost.
After resting in the church for a while, John took out the badge. He thought about it and sent the message to the blond.
...
Hogwarts.
After leaving John, it seemed like something was missing, but also like nothing was missing.
John has always been the leader and king in Slytherin.
Without Wang's guidance, their points hourglass was gradually being caught up.
Although it is still first, Gryffindor, who is second, is not far behind.
Harry was enjoying breakfast in the Great Hall.
Ron missed the Apparition exam that was supposed to be on April 21st due to poisoning.
But it's not a big deal.
Hagrid's Aragog still couldn't hold on and died, and it was on the same day as the Apparition exam.
Harry did not attend because he was not young enough.
Hagrid invited them to attend the funeral, but Ron, who was lying on the hospital bed, said it was impossible to go.
Hermione didn't want to go either, she was in the midst of her Apparition exam.
Only Harry went.
Coincidentally, he also met Slughorn on the road.
Remembering his mission, Harry talked to him.
When he learned that Harry was going to attend the funeral of an Acromantula, Slughorn, the Potions Master, was moved.
The venom of Acromantula is very valuable.
He went with Harry.
But it's a pity that Hagrid didn't give Slughorn a good look.
Although he didn't chase anyone away, he didn't say much.
This made Slughorn prepare a lot of bottles that he couldn't put to use, so he had to secretly give a few to Harry, so that this 'collection' that he was optimistic about could serve him once.
Harry saw the big spider, even though it was dead.
But that body and the hair on it made Harry reluctant to get close.
Thinking of the task assigned to him by Dumbledore, Harry used close observation as an excuse to successfully obtain the ultimate Acromantula venom under the guidance of Slughorn.
After that, Slughorn left in a hurry, and Harry was dragged down by Hagli to cry and get drunk.
By the next day, Harry felt like he'd drank so much that his head was going to explode.
But the good news is that because of this experience, his relationship with Slughorn has been further improved.
At the same time, Harry read "Advanced Potion Making" carefully and acquired some knowledge, which gave him some confidence when facing Slughorn.
Dumbledore's teachings to Harry are also going on from time to time.
Harry knew how lucky he was to be tutored by the greatest wizard in the world.
Harry's originally impetuous heart gradually calmed down, until one day, Harry had a sudden idea and drank three drops of Felixir.
It feels like everything will go smoothly.
Before a Potions lesson, he knocked over a copper scale.
Snape laughed at him slyly, but Harry was not annoyed and found one in the cupboard to use.
It happened to be the last one, and Harry took it.
After class, Harry returned to the common room only to find that the copper scale had been brought back.
He was so blessed that he took the copper scale and sent it back without hesitation.
It happened that Slughorn came to borrow this classroom to complete a potion experiment.
At this time, Harry happened to come in.
Slughorn simply took Harry along to prepare the potion, with the help of the Elixir of Fortune and the knowledge of "Advanced Potion Making".
Harry pointed out the addition of a new material, leaving Slughorn in awe.
"I thought I'd take a drink to this brilliant experiment."
Slughorn invites Harry to the Headmaster's office.
There, Slughorn drank a glass of strong alcohol, then drank more and more as Harry flattered him.
In the end, Slughorn was confused. Harry's instinct told him that Slughorn would not remember anything after he woke up.
So he struck while the iron was hot and asked Slughorn what they had talked about with John.
Slughorn was extremely generous when he was drunk, pulling out a piece of his memory and putting it in a bottle and giving it to Harry.
Harry did it.
With steps of suppressed excitement, he put the bottle containing the memory into his pocket.
When he walked to the gatekeeper's office, the effect of the Felixir had ended.
Harry found the door ajar, knocked and it opened.
He saw Dumbledore looking at a copy of the Daily Prophet absentmindedly. Even Harry's arrival could not attract his attention.
"Dumbledore?"
Harry whispered to Dumbledore, but Dumbledore didn't respond.
"Dumbledore?" He had no choice but to walk in and call Dumbledore again, eager to share the good news with him.
This time, Dumbledore came to his senses and put down the newspaper in his hand.
Harry glanced out of the corner of his eye and saw the news about the volcanic eruption in the newspaper.
Suddenly, he saw a familiar name.
Johnny Silverhand.
