Chapter 1119 There is no more Grindelwald in the world
Grindelwald set foot on this strange land.

The Reaper's dwelling place is very small, and in terms of the area it occupies, it is not as good as Nurmengard.

It is such a small place, inhabited by a god, who has influenced human history for thousands of years.

Grindelwald followed in the footsteps of Death, circled the river, and finally walked under the tall elder tree.

The island is simple and bare, with the only life being the elderberry, and everything else dead.

It's hard to imagine that this is the residence of the god of death.

It's almost like a prison.

So, as the only life, why is the elderberry tree so special?
The reason is simple, it grows from the elderberry seeds planted by the god of death when he became a god.

After thousands of years, the god of death used the water of the Styx to water it day and night to grow to such a scale.

It is not only the source of death's power, the inseparable life, but also the incarnation of his soul.

This elder tree is the god of death... the destiny!
Only by cutting it off can the man be deprived of his identity as the god of death, and thus have the opportunity to kill him completely.

Grindelwald entered the underworld and has been lurking so far because of this elder tree.

Of course, as the incarnation of "Mandate of Heaven", not everyone destroys it.

Magic, weapons and even prehistoric mysteries are impossible!

Only Reaper's weapons... can.

Death has two weapons: a sickle and an axe.

Holding a sickle, you can harvest hundreds of millions of lives;
With an ax in hand, you can change the world.

They are the only things that can chop an elderberry.

In Grindelwald's hand, a rusty ax appeared.

After entering the underworld, he rode the giant monster of the North Sea and broke into the end of the river Styx.In the land of the dead, I finally found this battle axe.

But, even with an ax in hand, how can a mortal cut down death's elderberry?
You can't get anything in return without making sacrifices.If you want to get something, you must pay the same price.

What the old man needs to pay is... death.

Not an ordinary death, but a complete sacrifice of the soul.

After the sacrifice, he couldn't become a ghost, couldn't enter the Styx to reincarnate, and couldn't be summoned... completely disappeared.

Grindelwald knew this earlier, and he still did not hesitate in this trip to the underworld.

Even very happy.

He hasn't killed a god yet.

Before dying, use your old life to replace the god of death... worth it!

Or, in Grindelwald's view, he should have died long ago.

Back then, when the three of them fought in a melee, was it true that no one noticed Arianna?

No, Grindelwald saw it.

He could foresee the future, and "witnessed" the end of the girl at the beginning of the melee.

He still didn't stop it, even... secretly pleased.

Arianna is a silent person, and she will not live long.

If she died by accident, it would be a relief for everyone.

Especially for Albus Dumbledore!
Grindelwald, who was still young at that time, thought to himself:

Albus no longer needs to be dragged down by his sister, and he doesn't have to bear the responsibility of taking care of his sister.

The two of them can finally go far away, follow the planned journey of seeking the Holy Spirit, obtain the prehistoric mysteries, and find the God of Death.

they united,

Revolution this failed world!
Build a whole new world!

Arianna's death was for...a greater good! !

but,

When the girl really died in the melee, Grindelwald panicked.

And what happened next far exceeded his expectations.

He still remembers the scene at that time:
The young Dumbledore crouched down slowly, hugged the little corpse, and pressed his forehead tightly to hers.

At that moment, the boy hugged his sister, not only burst into tears, but also sobbed.

Looking at the extremely painful face, Grindelwald was in a trance for a moment, and even felt heartbroken.

He has a hunch:
I might lose Dumbledore.

Grindelwald's hunch was right.

The two of them talked to each other and had in-depth exchanges. They are like-minded comrades, closer than brothers.

Still parted ways like this.

Dumbledore's whole body collapsed, his eyes were painful, he didn't say a word to him, just knelt on the ground alone, digging the grave with his bare hands, his fingers were covered with blood...

Grindelwald was disappointed.

Then he ran away,
like a coward.

When he came, he was alone; when he left, he only took away the medicine bottle that made a blood alliance with Albus.

This is a token of the two of them.

But Albus didn't chase after him at all, and Grindelwald turned from disappointment to despair.

It was Aberforth who came after him and wanted to kill him.

The outcome of the battle is foreordained.

Grindelwald easily subdued Aberforth.He hated Aberforth, but he didn't hurt the boy.

After all, this was Albus Dumbledore's only relative.

Since then, Grindelwald has been alone, moving forward according to the plan of that summer.

He is like a person who keeps running forward, never looking back, just because...

I am ashamed.

Arianna's death made Grindelwald feel guilty all his life.

In that decisive battle, he should have died at the hands of Dumbledore.

Instead of killing him, he left him alive.

Since then, in Nurmengard, in that dark and gloomy prison, Grindelwald has imprisoned himself for 50 years, and the rest of his life is just for atonement.

Not just for those years, the Muggles and wizards he killed, but also for that innocent girl.

Grindelwald is not afraid of death, he has been living, just want to atone for his sins.

If you can use your own death to make up for the sins of those years, what could be easier than this?

The old man raised the axe, without any hesitation, he slashed hard at the elderberry,
When the ax fell on the vine, a phantom of a sickle appeared in midair.

It is like a sharp weapon for harvesting souls, hooking out Grindelwald's soul little by little.

The soul that has left the body is burning violently, it is a kind of piercing pain.

He didn't stop.

Keep swinging the ax.

If the god of death does not leave the island, the wizard has no chance to come up;
Even if the god of death leaves, once he notices the abnormality, he can instantly cross the space and return here;

Even if the god of death does not come back, and does not sneak into the end of the Styx to find the axe, it cannot destroy the elderberry...

Now, it's all happening at the same time.

This is what he and William said...the only hope.

How could he give up so easily!
The old man is like a hard-working lumberjack, constantly raising his ax and chopping on the elderberry.

Click!

The elder tree that made the Elder Wand, the Holy Grail, and countless Deathly Hallows... fell to the ground.

Until now, Grindelwald's soul has been completely torn out, like a smoke that has been lit for a long time, and it is about to burn to the end.

"Please, Albus, forgive me, forgive me for all the hurt I have caused you in this life."

In the night, the old man stretched out his arm, which was as dry as an old bamboo, and stretched into the air.

While dying, the scene of that summer played back in his mind:

Young Dumbledore and young Grindelwald face each other in a barn.

Both of them drew a line on their palms with their wands.

Blood came out and they clasped their hands together.

"Fingers clasped,
Blood flow.

Forever remember my love,

Never hurt Iraq. "

The old man's five fingers began to dissipate, and then his arms and body.

"The most precious thing in my life is that you came with that midsummer."

"But, the summer is over, and my story will also end..."

"So, Albus..."

"Goodbye."

So... Albus Dumbledore, no more.

There is a breeze blowing between the sky and the earth.The bloody smell was blown away, and the dust was also blown away.

Grindelwald disappeared, and the figure was never seen again.

There is no more Gellert in the world.
