I weave my destiny in parallel time and space

Dumbledore stood next to the balcony of the principal's office. On the endless grassland, a group of magical creatures such as unicorns and elk were running in panic. The resonance caused the earth to tremble.

Joan of Arc was trying hard to comfort these creatures, but it was obviously difficult.

The radiance of magical power emerged beside him, and a dark figure gradually appeared behind him.

Dark magic surged around him, making it difficult for people to see his face clearly, with a scarlet eye showing a lively brilliance.

"Long time no see, Albus."

Dumbledore opened his eyes and turned his head to look at the black figure behind him.

Although both the appearance and the smell were different from the past, Dumbledore still recognized the existence in front of him.

After a brief silence, he smiled freely, "When Lord Merlin said that you had been saved, I was very happy. Now it seems that you are not only saved, but also seem to be a blessing in disguise."

"I changed my body." The black figure said, "A body derived from the body of a giant dragon in mythology."

There is no doubt that the dark figure in front of him is Gaward after obtaining Nighold's body.

Dumbledore closed his eyelids and said, "The reason why you suddenly appeared after being missing for so long is because of what is happening in the world right now, right?"

"Although I am no longer a human being, my essence will not change in any way." He said.

"Yes." Dumbledore nodded, and murmured in a low voice with deep eyes, "We all set our ambitions to change the world at the beginning, but in essence, it was all for the future of mankind."

The shadow didn't speak,

"Where have you been all this time?" Dumbledore asked.

"To find something."

Gayward raised his hand, and a glass bottle was placed on the table on one side.

The bottle was transparent, and Dumbledore looked at it for a while before realizing that it contained a transparent liquid that was so clear that it was almost difficult to distinguish with the naked eye.

With his many years of experience in learning magic, he could feel that this glass bottle contained huge magic power.

"What is this?" Dumbledore asked doubtfully.

Gaward did not explain directly, but was silent for a moment and then said, "I have always regarded you as my only opponent. We are close friends and also old enemies.

I'm lucky to have an "enemy" like you.

But now, after I changed my body, you are no longer qualified to be my enemy.

You may not believe it, but my power now is more than a hundred times stronger than before. "

"I believe." Dumbledore nodded, "In the world of magic, wisdom can provide an upper limit, while the form of life provides a lower limit. The two can complement each other and look forward to a broader future.

Your magical talents are among the best in the world. After possessing the magic power of dragons, your future will be limitless. "

Gayward stared at Dumbledore quietly, "You look happy."

Dumbledore was a little surprised, then smiled and said, "Why am I unhappy?"

"Because I have completely left you behind." Gaward said, "In the past, I was never your opponent in any duel, but now, I want to defeat you easily."

Dumbledore was silent for a long time, then took a few steps slowly and looked into the distance through the open balcony.

"I am no longer young. You and I both know that there is nothing eternal in this world. Flowers bloom and fall, and clouds rise and disperse. These are the rules of this world.

The scenery at the top of the mountain is beautiful, but the journey down the mountain is also inevitable, isn't it? "

"Have you heard of Mimir's Fountain of Wisdom?" Gaward interrupted.

Dumbledore was stunned for a moment, then he frowned and fell into thought.

"The one from Norse mythology?"

Gaward nodded, "It is located in Jotunheim, next to the second root of the World Tree. It is said that as long as you drink a sip of spring water, you can gain wisdom. The person who guards this spring is Mimir. Odin once wanted to gain wisdom. And he came to the spring and offered his right eye in exchange. After drinking the spring water, Odin gained the knowledge of the world."

Dumbledore seemed to realize something and looked at the bottle on the desk to one side again.

"I have fantasized about defeating you many times." Gayward said slowly, "But never in this cheating way. What I want is to defeat you fairly and above board."

He looked at Dumbledore, "Drink it, Albus, and you will be by my side again!"

"This is what you have been looking for all these years." Dumbledore murmured in a low voice, "But the World Tree has collapsed, how can the Fountain of Wisdom still exist?"

"The original owner of the body I occupy was named Nighold." Gaward said.

Dumbledore opened his eyes and murmured softly, "The dragon who blew the horn of Ragnarok?"

"I inherited its memory." Gaward took over. "Jotunheim was not completely destroyed. It just fell into a different time and space. I have been looking for it for a long time."

He looked at the bottle, "But... this is also the last fountain of wisdom."

Dumbledore also turned his head and stared at the glass bottle on the table, silent.

"Drink it." Gaward continued, "The seal of Dragon Nest has been broken, and this world needs your power."

"Odin paid the price of one eye in order to drink from the Fountain of Wisdom." Dumbledore looked at Gaward, with an unknown light flashing in his eyes, "What did you pay?"

Gayward was speechless. The black shadow on his body gradually dissipated, and a black-haired young man wearing a suit and holding a cane appeared in front of him.

His current appearance is very similar to that of when he was young. His body is that of a dragon, and there is no so-called human form in essence.

The human form is just a form transformed by magic, so any shape can be used.

But at this moment, one of his eyes was covered by an eyepatch, making him look like a pirate, but it also added a sense of story to his aura.

Dumbledore stared at the blindfold that Gaward was wearing and was also speechless.

"You should know my character." Gayward said slowly, "This eye is not exchanged for some spring water."

He slowly raised the corners of his mouth, "I look forward to you becoming my old enemy again, Albus."

After saying that, he was swallowed up by the thick black fog, and then completely disappeared from the spot.

Instead, there was a bottle of water from the fountain of wisdom that exuded the radiance of magic.

Dumbledore stared at the place where Gayward disappeared. After a moment of silence, he walked to the desk.

He picked up the glass bottle, hesitated for a moment, and then drank it in one gulp.

The sweet spring water entered his body down his throat.

At that moment, he felt the magic power in the spring bloom in his body, and then gradually spread to his limbs and bones along his blood.
