Threatening Dumbledore's day at Hogwarts

Light and shadow flickered at the end of the quiet alley, and an old man and a young man walked out of a remote alley.

It was Dumbledore and William, and this was the streets of Paris, France. Dumbledore had apparated directly from England and brought William with him.

Originally, William thought that Apparition could not cross countries, but Dumbledore's move also reminded William that this was not a game, and there was no air wall between countries. Whether he could Apparate only depended on the distance.

This time Dumbledore brought William to visit Nicomel. Due to William's repeated entreaties, Dumbledore did not greet Nicomel in advance.

Fortunately, Dumbledore and Nicomel were very good friends, so a sudden visit would not seem presumptuous.

It’s just that William is a little nervous. After all, he has a plan. He wants Nicomel to accept him as his disciple and teach him alchemy knowledge. What if Nicomel doesn’t accept him if he doesn’t perform well.

Dumbledore also saw William's nervousness, not because Dumbledore had good eyesight, but because William almost fell flat just now. William was so nervous that he could hardly move his feet.

"Don't be nervous William, Nick is a very good old man and your father's master. He will like you."

"Really Grandpa?"

"Of course, trust me."

William continued to follow Dumbledore until he reached a tall building.

William looked at the high-rise building in front of him and wondered, is this old man who has lived for more than 600 years so fashionable? He lives in a high-rise building.

Dumbledore waved his wand, and the tall building slowly sank into the ground. When the last floor sank into the ground, William saw a mansion appear on the ground where a tall building had been.

Dumbledore stepped forward and rang the doorbell. After two rings, the door opened. The person who opened the door was a house elf. Seeing that it was Dumbledore, he quickly invited Dumbledore in.

"This is a house elf, William." Dumbledore explained to William because he was afraid that William would not understand.

William nodded without speaking, but followed Dumbledore and looked around.

I saw that the entire house was decorated with splendor and splendor. When looking from the outside, I could tell that it was a mansion. Now that I got inside, it was as expected.

What comes into view when you enter the living room is the huge crystal chandelier. The surrounding walls are golden, and the entire room illuminated by the chandelier is shining with gold.

The house elf first helped Dumbledore sit on the sofa, and then conjured two cups of tea and placed them on the table.

"Dear Mr. Albus Dumbledore, please allow me to excuse myself for a moment and tell my master the good news of your arrival." The house elf bowed with great humility.

Dumbledore smiled and waved his hand, signaling the house elves to please.

After receiving a response, the house elf snapped his fingers again and disappeared from William's sight.

Dumbledore was sitting on the sofa and couldn't help but asked William: "William, don't you still want to tell me why you must learn alchemy?"

William was silent at first and a little helpless. Anna and Dumbledore had asked this question countless times, but William still didn't know how to say it.

Tell Dumbledore that learning this is to save the wizarding world and to stand on top of the world?

The former may be suspected by Dumbledore of having a brain problem, and the latter is simply the Dark Lord speaking.

Old Deng, who was suspected of being seriously ill, thought wrongly, so what could be done, so William still hadn't figured out how to tell Dumbledore.

"William?" Dumbledore called to William who was distracted.

"Oh, grandpa, I just think alchemy is very magical. Alchemists are like scientists in the Muggle world. They are an important force leading the progress of wizards. I quite admire alchemists."

"Hahahaha." As soon as William finished speaking, a burst of hearty laughter came from the side.

Following the sound, I saw an old man walking slowly.

The old man then said: "Dumbledore, the child you brought here is very knowledgeable! He looks like a smart child."

"Hahaha Nick, this is the grandson I just recognized. How can he be smart?" Dumbledore also smiled heartily when he heard someone complimenting William.

"William this is Nico Mellor, Nick this is William Jarvis."

After hearing Dumbledore's introduction, Nico Mele's expression tightened and he tentatively said, "Jarvis? He is..."

You didn't finish speaking, but Dumbledore understood what Nicomel wanted to ask and replied: "Yes, it's his son."

Nico Mele hurriedly walked to William, raised his hands tremblingly to touch William's cheek, raised and put his hands in the air, put them down and raised them again.

In the end, he still didn’t touch William’s face, and put his hands down dejectedly.

"Child, how have you been in the past few years? It was me who harmed you!" Nico Mele's voice trembled.

Nico Mele's heart is heavy now. After five years, he once again saw his beloved disciple's child. However, this time the meeting was no longer the joy of the past, and things had changed.

The death of William's father has been a knot in Nico Mele's mind for the past few years. Although he has lived for a long time and has seen many things, the incident involving William's father finally made Nico Mele make a decision. , that is, he will no longer use the magic stone to make the elixir of life, and he plans to face death calmly.

It can be seen how much the incident of William's father had a huge impact on Nico Mele. In the past few years, he has not dared to see William. Firstly, he was afraid of causing another disaster to the child, and secondly, he did not dare to face William.

William saw a series of actions of the old man in front of him when he learned his identity, and William knew that this old man also cared about him.

William said with some emotion, "Grandpa Nick, I am living a good life." After another silence, William organized his words and continued: "No one can blame you for that matter. Greed is the original sin."

These words made Nico Mele a little stunned. If I remember correctly, could the child in front of me say such a thing when he is only eight years old this year?

Dumbledore also came out at the right time to adjust the sad atmosphere and said: "I'll just say that my grandson is smart."

Nico Mele was furious: "Go, go, I am William's father's master, and I am William's grandfather. Don't get involved."

"You can't control this." Dumbledore looked like an old naughty boy.

After another round of greetings, William got down to business.He expressed his desire to learn alchemy.

"What, you also want to learn alchemy?" Nico Mele was still shocked when he heard William's words.But when I think about it, I feel relieved. It’s perfectly normal for the son of a genius alchemist to want to learn alchemy!
