Chapter 228
Seeing the happy face of the old child, the other professors present, including Harry, couldn't laugh at all. They all looked at Dumbledore, as if they wanted to wait for the other party to say that they were joking.
Facing everyone's eyes, Dumbledore seemed to understand something, he took the initiative to hold Grindelwald's hand this time, and said calmly.
"I have dedicated my life to this school and have done everything in my power to maintain the fragile peace of the wizarding world."
"I thought Voldemort would be the last enemy I would face in my life, but it might be that my vision was narrowed. The appearance of Augustus and everything he did after that made me realize how big this world really is. "
"He brought me happiness that I had never experienced before, and also allowed me to dare to make choices that I wanted most but never dared to make at the end of my life."
"The next few years were the happiest of my life, traveling to every corner of the planet and visiting places I'd only read about in books."
"Now that I'm satisfied and have no regrets, it's time to start a new adventure."
Seeing the relief of the two old people, the people present couldn't find any words to refute for a while. After a long silence, Professor McGonagall said with tears in his eyes.
"That should at least say goodbye at a major farewell banquet. The greatest Hogwarts headmaster in history should be praised and sent off by all Hogwarts students."
"It's not just in this place, so hastily ending this important thing."
Professor McGonagall's words caused everyone to nod repeatedly, even Professor Snape on the side nodded in approval, but Dumbledore shook his head slightly, and he looked at Professor McGonagall calmly and said.
"Unnecessary Minerva, under the watchful eyes of several of my most trusted professors, being able to say her goodbye in such a warm scene is already perfect."
"I was looking for honor and recognition when I was young, but I'm over 100 years old, and those things are no longer necessary for me."
"Oh yes." Speaking of which, Dumbledore took out a wand and handed it to Professor McGonagall.
"Put this wand on the windowsill of Julius' dormitory. The wand in his hand was chosen by Augustus before, but it was passed to Julius by Augustus."
"But you know that the wand will only choose one owner in its lifetime. Although Julius is easy to use, what little wizard doesn't want to have his own wand?"
"This time, I took him to Ollivander's wand shop a few days ago to order it. It was originally intended to be given to him as a Christmas present, but now you all know."
"Grindelwald and I have investigated some information, but we can't reveal too much to you. I think the two children will handle everything. He is smarter than we thought."
"Can you help me with this request, Minerva."
Facing Dumbledore's request, Professor McGonagall looked down at the wand in his hand. It was a very peculiar mold made of rosewood and yew wood.
Rosewood symbolizes the power of love, and yew symbolizes the ultimate pursuit of power. Voldemort's wand is made of yew.
The symbolic meanings of these two kinds of wood are completely opposite, but they are organically combined on a wand. They are intertwined and integrated, which looks abrupt and unified.
"What is the core of this wand? Although it is rude to ask this question, I still want to know."
Looking at this strange wand, Professor McGonagall thought for a long time, but still asked the doubts in his heart.
Facing this question, Dumbledore did not evade, and responded straightforwardly.
"It's two drops of blood, the two sons of the Black and White Demon King, two different types of wood, plus two drops of magical blood, everything is so strange, and everything is so normal."
"Put it on Julius' windowsill, that is my last request."
After hearing Dumbledore's answer, everyone fell silent again, even though the politics of the outside world had little influence on Hogwarts due to Augustus' deliberate behavior.
But since the wizarding world began to contact the Muggle world, these influences have inevitably been transmitted to Hogwarts. The discussions of the students and the doubts of the teachers have more or less affected everyone's thinking.
Many students, including some teachers, are discussing Grindelwald and Dumbledore. This seems to be an arrangement of fate. There must be a decisive battle between the two twins, and only the remaining one can start a new era.
Among the two brothers, one must kill the other with his own hands in order to realize that great ideal.
Even Professor Sybill Trelawney in the divination class made a prophecy unintentionally, "In the arena formed by the supreme fire, the blood of loved ones will usher in a new era."
Facing this chaotic situation, Professor McGonagall wanted Dumbledore to return to Hogwarts. Once the great headmaster returned to school, he would be able to preside over the overall situation and calm people's hearts.
After finally waiting for the other party at Christmas, the other party brought the news that he was leaving. This time is really unacceptable.
"Dong Dong Dong Dong!!!"
When everyone was silent, a bell rang from the tower in the distance. It was already 12 o'clock in the evening, and a new day had begun.
Dumbledore and Grindelwald also stood up. With smiles on their faces, they calmly hugged everyone present, and then held hands and waved goodbye to everyone present.
Everyone also got up and followed Professor McGonagall to see off the two old people. They walked from the Slytherin common room to the main gate of Hogwarts Square.
Looking at the repaired stone bridge in the distance, and the snowflakes still flying in the sky, the two old people turned around and looked at Hogwarts in the snowy night.
Then they supported each other and walked towards the endless night and the snowflakes all over the sky. Their figures looked so rickety, but probably because of each other's existence, their walking steps were so firm.
Soon the two old men disappeared into the wind and snow, but watching the disappearing figures of the two old men, everyone stood at the gate of the castle, unwilling to leave for a long time.
Time passed slowly until the tower bell rang again, indicating that it was one o'clock in the evening, but it was strange that the tower would not ring the bell after midnight.
Accompanied by the rumbling bell, a fireball flew out from the back of Hogwarts Castle Hill, the fireball slowly climbed into the air, and finally exploded into colorful fireworks.
Among the fireworks is a personal image, there is Professor Snape who was unkind before, Professor Flitwick who is small but extremely enthusiastic, and Professor McGonagall who is solemn but loves every classmate.
After that was Principal Dumbledore, who made a grimace, and Grindelwald by his side. At the end of the fireworks, there was the Hogwarts school badge composed of silver fireworks.
The gorgeous fireworks illuminated the darkness of the night and also illuminated the ancient castle.
