Vol 2 Chapter 340: The real Dark Lord

Gellert Grindelwald's expression sank in an instant.
He pondered for a moment, and then slowly raised his head and took a close look at Jon: "I thought he would have to wait a few years, wait until you become an adult... before telling you this secret!"
"Maybe Professor Dumbledore thought I grew faster than I thought?" Jon guessed.
"Maybe!" Grindelwald said lightly.
His old and confused eyes, through the blazing flames, through the very narrow gaps in the black stone walls, and looking into the fading night sky outside...
Jon was considering whether to remind Mr. Grindelwald so that he would not change the subject.
Fortunately, Grindelwald does not seem to have any plans to do so.
"Because I had already lost at the time, I lost it all!" His voice was very calm, completely unlike a 100-year-old man with a declining age: "As a loser, there is no point in keeping secrets; Bring the secret into the grave, if you tell someone who will not reveal it."
"Have you never thought of a comeback?" Jon couldn't help but asked curiously.
"Humph!" Grindelwald snorted coldly: "Since I was defeated by him, it proved that he was right, and I was wrong... The winner wins everything, and the wrong one should die with his ideas. This It’s a very simple rule."
"That was just a duel..." Jon said in a daze.
"Duel?" Grindelwald glanced mockingly at Jon: "It was a war...in Moscow, in Algiers, in Normandy...I lost to him in every battlefield. He did it. Better than me, and he is better than me...By the time of the final duel in 1945, I had nothing!"
"Are you suggesting that you deliberately lost to him?" Jon couldn't help but blinked: "The duel in Berlin in 1945..."
"Not exactly!" Grindelwald shook his head: "But I did have a chance to kill him. With the Elder Wand in my hand, it was not particularly difficult... But at that time, when I had lost everything. It doesn’t make any sense to kill him, Leonard Muen, or Winston Churchill...because I have already failed."
"You said that after failure, you would rather be killed by Dumbledore..." Jon said.
"Gellert Grindelwald has failed, but his loyal followers don’t think they have failed... in Bavaria, in Bulgaria, in Scandinavia... Without thinking-Dumbledore kills, their resistance will not end, although this resistance is meaningless and just a futile sacrifice..."
"... But if Gellert Grindelwald is defeated by Dumbledore and confessed to the leaders of the Ministry of Magic in dozens of countries; they will be fully aware of the destruction of their faith and the war will be completely ended. !" Grindelwald said calmly.
"That's why you were imprisoned in this prison after pleading guilty?" Jon bit his lip and asked.
"Do you think this prison alone can trap me?" Grindelwald sneered: "From Europe to North America, I have successfully escaped more than 20 times and persuaded more than fifty jailers who held me...So, They dare not even send a guard to this tower!"
"Do you think that just a few ridiculous protective magics can trap me, do you think that without a wand and a distraction spell can stop me from casting spells, or do you rely on the stinky guy named Scamander to get some big ones? Cat..." Grindelwald shook his head: "If I want to, I can easily leave here...Of course, that would have worked decades ago, and now I am no longer good. After all, fifty years, I haven't used any magic."
"To be honest, you are more respectable than I thought." Jon said with a serious face, and there was no joking in his voice.
"Respect?" Grindelwald glanced at Jon with a mocking look again: "It's just the rules of the game between me and him... I once won his approval, understood each other with him, and even got close to him. There is no room...but we have completely different ideas, and we finally parted ways..."
"... He hates me, I hate him, we both regard each other as the existence that should be eliminated!" Grindelwald paused, and then continued: "But with my doomed failure, the relationship between us The war is over, and I will not do any pointless resistance at the end, that is meaningless...except to cause a deeper level of chaos!"
"Similarly, if the final outcome is not that he comes to Berlin, but that I go to London; he will choose to do so... Albus Dumbledore will be easily defeated by me, and the entire magical world will be in his With the help, it quickly fell into my hands." Grindelwald explained calmly.
"Professor Dumbledore did not choose to control the world..." Jon reminded softly: "He refused to take over the position of Leonard Muen as Minister of Magic, instead he chose to take over Armando Dupete and became The principal of Hogwarts."
"This is his choice, it has nothing to do with me." Grindelwald shook his head disdainfully: "Since he is willing to hand the magical world into the hands of those mediocre people, since he himself chose to stay away from the center of power... I laugh at him for his stupidity and innocence.
"Professor Dumbledore is a great man." Jon said slowly.
"Greatness and greatness are different~EbookFREE.me~ Grindelwald sneered and glanced at Jon: "You don't have to show respect to me... If the original winner was me, I was born as a Muggle You can’t even be born. "
"Respect and respect are also different." Jon replied calmly: "Respect does not mean recognition."
...
There was a brief calm between the two.
After a few minutes of silence, the old man on the stone bed took the initiative to ask: "What is my final ending, what you said you saw... At the tower of Newmondgard, the youngest lonely one?"
"Yes." Jon turned around and said slowly, looking at the narrow gap in the black stone wall.
"Then what about him? Is he dead in the position of Hogwarts principal?" Grindelwald continued to ask.
"Yes!" Jon nodded again.
"You are deceiving me... To be honest, your Occlumency is very good, but you are not good at lying at all!" Grindelwald snorted coldly.
