HP: Embrace the Darkness

At night, the Duke and Anna knew that their son had finally successfully summoned the patron saint.

Anna looked at her son expectantly.

Aces waved his hand to release the Patronus Charm. A silver-white tiger leaped to Anna's side and looked at her gently. Anna and the Duke observed the tiger in a novel way.

Neither of their patron saints are white tigers.

The duke's patron saint is the red deer, the crest of the Devonshire family. Anna's patron saint is the raven.

They had summoned the patron saint as early as their student days, so the patron saint had already been finalized.

After being married for many years, they can also use magic power and time to change into each other's patron saint, but it is not necessary. They have formed a habit after being with the original patron saint for so many years.

The two stopped paying attention after satisfying their curiosity.

From the beginning, they were not worried that Asses could not summon the patron saint.

"Congratulations, my child, your patron saint is very powerful." Anna gave Asseth a gentle hug and praised.

The Duke continued Anna's compliment, "Congratulations, Asseth.

Both of them looked at the child in front of them proudly. It was the fruit of their love, the son they watched grow up little by little, the future Duke of Devonshire, the sole heir of the Cavendish family.

When a family of three is enjoying themselves.

----

A secret meeting is being held here in Nurmengard.

In the tower room, several elegant old men were arguing.

The old man sitting at the head of the table knocked on the table rhythmically, allowing several people to argue, but his faster and faster movements showed that he was getting impatient.

The old woman at the bottom looked at the old man's actions calmly, and rebuked coldly:

"You are so unrestrained in front of sir. It seems that you have relaxed after all these years."

The quarreling movements of the several old men suddenly stopped, and they all apologized to the old man in the main seat in unison.

The old man on the throne, Grindelwald, looked around at the subordinates below, and finally his eyes rested on the old woman who had just spoken.

"Vita, invite the young master of the Cavendish family to be my guest. Remember, he is my distinguished guest and cannot be neglected."

Vita stood up respectfully and bowed gracefully.

"At your service, sir."

Seeing that Vita had taken on the task of recruiting people, everyone looked at Grindelwald.

Grindelwald pondered for a moment and sent a few people except Abernathy to collect some rare materials.

Then let Abernethy consolidate his current forces, eliminate most of the uncertainties without extensive investigation, and retain the main confidants.

After everything was settled, Grindelwald immediately asked them to leave. Then he lay quietly on the bed in the cell, looking at the starry sky outside the window, not knowing what he was thinking.

----

Cavendish Manor, Devon, UK

Vita was very efficient and had already figured out general information about the young master of the Cavendish family in two days.

But after all, Cavendish is a noble in the Muggle world and wizarding world, and they must have passed the information that is circulated.

But that's enough. She was just here to invite.

She adjusted her clothes a little, then waved her wand gently in front of the manor, signaling to the owner's house inside.

Soon, a house elf appeared at the door of the manor, and the door of the manor opened.

Vita followed behind the house elf, quietly observing the surrounding environment.

Different from the romantic and beautiful manors in France, Cavendish Manor is more classical and luxurious, with the conservative reserve of the British.

Before entering the castle, Vita carefully checked her appearance again.

Cavendish is a noble, so she will not be rude.

Entering the castle, the first thing you see is the boy on the sofa. He is wearing a white silk shirt and trousers of the same color. There is a silver cufflink nailed to the cuff of the shirt. His hair is noble black, like the deep night sky.

Vita quickly looked at the little Cavendish in front of her, and then saluted personally.

trousers? It seemed that the child was almost nine years old. She thought to herself.

Asses had already stood up from the sofa when Vita was looking at her. He greeted Vita in a gentlemanly manner, with a smile exactly like the Duke's on his face, and invited her to sit down.

Vita watched every move of the boy and couldn't help but admire. The unhurried, elegant and calm etiquette is worthy of the Cavendish family.

The two sat down opposite each other, and Vita got straight to the point.

"Hello, Mr. Cavendish. I, Vita Rosier, invite you to meet at Nurmengard on behalf of my master, Mr. Grindelwald."

After saying that, Vita raised the teacup and waited for the boy's reply.

When Asseth heard this invitation, he was first confused. He didn't know Grindelwald, so why would Grindelwald invite him to meet?

Although I was confused in my heart, it didn't show on my face.

He thought for a moment, looked up at Vita and asked neatly.

"When. Now? I happen to have time now."

Looking at his appearance at first, Vita thought he was going to refuse. I had prepared words of persuasion along the way and was about to speak out when I heard him agree to meet.

Although she didn't understand why the boy agreed, she didn't ask any more questions and stood up directly, just as she was about to go out and apparate with Asseth.

Asseth snapped his fingers, and the house elf Nina immediately appeared in front of the two of them excitedly.

"Dear Master Cavendish finally needs Nina. Great, Nina can finally help the Master." The elf banged his head excitedly.

"Okay, Nina, can you send us to Nurmengard?" Asseth stopped Nina from banging her head before asking.

Nina immediately replied "Yes, Master Cavendish."

As soon as the house elf finished speaking, Asseth and Vita appeared in front of an old castle.

Vita guided Asseth, and the two came to a room in the tower.

Aces looked at this room strangely. All the way here, only this room looked like a prison cell.

Vita saw the look in Asseth's eyes and explained, "This was a cell before, where a great man was trapped."

After saying that, he turned around and exited the room.

Aces looked around and finally sat down on the sofa next to the fireplace.

The sound of footsteps sounded, and Asses raised his head to look at the man who once stirred up Europe.

Grindelwald was also looking at the sitting Asseth, a child who could change the prophecy.

The two looked at each other for a while, and Asseth was the first to interrupt.

"Hello, Mr. Grindelwald. I have a question, why do you go to all the trouble to meet a child like me."

"Child? You are indeed a child, but not an ordinary child."

Grindelwald never wanted to hide it from him from the beginning.

"I have a gift, prophecy. I have prophesied many times, and I have made a lot of efforts to change the prophecy, but in the end it was my push that led to the predicted results. From that time on, I knew that fate cannot be changed. ."

When Grindelwald said this, he glanced at Artes before continuing: "But a few days ago, the future I saw changed. This is the first time I discovered that the prophecy will also change."

"Did the changes that happened a few days ago? Is it because of that incident?"

Aces murmured in his mind.

"Does this have anything to do with you looking for me? What does the change in prophecy have to do with me."

"Because I want to make a deal with you."

"Deal? I don't think there's anything I can do to help you."

"You can't do it now, but you can do it in the future." Grindelwald said firmly.

Aces silently weighed whether it was worth it, "What's the deal?"

"My gift of prophecy is exchanged for you saving Albus Dumbledore's life."

Aces was shocked inside, but his face remained calm.

"I have three questions. Can the first talent be transferred?"

Grindelwald looked at Arthas proudly.

"If others can't do it, it doesn't mean that I can't do it. I got a magic formation in my early years. After years of research, I have only studied half of it, but this half is enough for me to complete the transfer of my talent."

"In the final analysis, my prophecy talent is just a magic, but only I can use it."

Artes was amazed in his heart. He was often praised for his talent by his parents, and he himself knew his talent, so he was somewhat proud of it over the years. Unexpectedly, he only discovered after meeting Grindelwald that there are people outside the world. It seems that I still need to go out and see more.

He hesitated for a moment, then asked: "Can I ask about your relationship with Dumbledore? If it's not convenient, forget it."

Grindelwald paused.

"There's nothing we can't say. We're just friends with different ideas."

Artes looked at Grindelwald's sad and lonely eyes and sighed a little. Are they really just friends? If they are friends, then why are you so sad.

"The last question is, is there a time limit? Also, Dumbledore is the most powerful wizard of our time. I don't think he needs my protection."

"I guarantee you that this time will not exceed ten years."

"No matter how strong a person is, he will be defeated. I am not asking you to protect him all the time. I just hope that you can save him once when he is at a critical moment of life and death."

After Grindelwald finished speaking, he quietly waited for Artes' answer.

Asai was a little entangled, he knew that he would not suffer a loss in this transaction.

Although he is still unable to compare with the two powerful wizards Grindelwald and Dumbledore, he will definitely surpass them in the future, so he is not worried that he cannot do this.

He just had a headache how to tell his parents to go to Hogwarts.

After all, if you want to save Dumbledore, you have to get as close to him as possible. Otherwise, who knows when something happens to Dumbledore, what if he can't get there?

Aces thought for a moment before agreeing to the deal.

He stretched out his little hand and shook it with Grindelwald.

"Pleasant to work with."
