Chapter 160 Nurmengard

The newlyweds were naturally very affectionate, and considering the past entanglements and separations, when they traveled to Austria, they tacitly went to Nurmengard Prison.

In the dilapidated, damp and decaying castle, Dumbledore walked up the creaking stairs and looked silently at the broken wooden furniture on the tower, the vaguely visible tattered sheets, and the skinless mummified rat corpses.

No one knew who started it, but they kissed at the place where they said goodbye half a century ago.

The charming blue eyes and the heterochromatic eyes stared at each other fiercely, and naturally used Legilimency to invade each other's brains - just like going back to the first time when the two young people were playing and joking, and everything was completely open to each other.

Those beautiful golden-red thoughts, the strong emotions suppressed under the calm appearance, and the long memories of a lifetime were all exposed without any defense, without a trace of brain blocking.

They saw the hostility between each other in middle age, the schemes and secrets that would never be revealed for the sake of the situation, the longing and pain in the midnight dreams, and the private life that was completely different from the tower afterwards...

It was then that Dumbledore learned some of Alison's background and the little scheme she and Gale had concealed from him.

To be honest, I don't know whether to laugh or cry.

After exchanging memories, thoughts and emotions, the old principal was completely sure that Gale had no intention of continuing to deceive people and gather power to realize his ambitions.

Originally, he was struggling with the choice of the new professor of Defense Against the Dark Arts between "Lockhart, the famous idiot who can serve as a negative example for students" and "the old devil Grindelwald who has turned over a new leaf and has a deep understanding of the dark arts", but now he doesn't have to worry about that anymore.

It would be better to just hire Lockhart as planned, and let him see how their cunning daughter planned to reasonably dismiss the professor midway. Revenge for his friend whose memory was stolen would make the students - especially Harry - learn a lesson when facing fame and fortune, and having an alternative professor would not affect their academic performance.

Harry's training plan had been scrapped when Alison directly skipped the Horcruxes and killed Voldemort's main soul in the first year. He no longer forced Harry to live in his annoying aunt's house.

But since Alison has planned it, it's nice to watch the show.

As soon as this mischievous thought arose, it was sensed by the lover opposite, and his heterochromatic eyes showed some teasing and indulgence.

After silently exchanging their thoughts and plans, they simply repaired some of the major damage to the Nurmengard Castle.

Back then, Grindelwald built this castle and installed numerous defensive and detection magics as a center of power and headquarters of the saints. It would also be used to imprison certain important wizard opponents.

After the duel in 1945, as the loser of the duel, Grindelwald was imprisoned by Dumbledore himself in the highest cell in the heavily guarded castle that he built himself.

Nowadays, many protective magics have become ineffective with the passage of time, but the strengthened anti-Apparition spell still works tenaciously.

……

He deliberately said that he would put Alison in Nurmengard Prison, of course, to scare the child.

There was no question of the garden being ruined, and the two old fathers were planning to take Alison to Nurmengard, where the whole family would continue to repair and decorate the private castle that had taken so much effort.

Recalling what he had seen from Gale's memory before, Alison's bad idea of ​​asking him to resign and become the guard of Nurmengard, Dumbledore took over the conversation in a gentle tone.

"We really can't keep you locked up, so we will go to Nurmengard to accompany you personally."

Alison, who had been alert, became strangely quiet.

Isn't this a reward for me?

Dumbledore couldn't hold back his serious expression and smiled helplessly: "Are you happy now?"

At Alison's cheerful kiss, Dumbledore patted her on the back and prepared to deal with the mess: "But before we go to Nurmengard, we must first deal with the problem of the garden."

Alison buried her face in her father's wizard robe, pretending not to hear, and pointed at Grindelwald next to her, indicating that her father should go.

Anyway, she had already collected several batches of magical plant seeds, so she didn't feel bad about letting the remaining ones be burned by the fire shield.

Grindelwald glanced at the little bastard coldly, not wanting to spoil him. There was no punishment, so he couldn't just not clean up the mess himself.

"You did a good thing, clean it up yourself."

Dumbledore smiled and spoke gently but firmly, clearly forcing Alison out and handing her over to Gale.

"Your father is right, Alison. If you make a mistake, you must take responsibility."

Alison looked up with a fawning look on her face, but the old devil didn't buy it at all and picked her up and walked away from her lover.

The dangerous plants in the garden sensed the presence of a stranger, but since their owner was around, they hesitated and did not attack.

The little red-haired wizard sighed, and seeing that he was getting nowhere, he quickly and obediently began to clean up the mess, taking back the magical plants one by one without saying a word.

Finally, the garden became completely quiet, with only various pits of earth, some deep, some shallow, some large, some small, left on the ground.

The bare garden was sprinkled with various flower seeds, and after being accelerated by ancient magic, it was restored to its original state. At most, the lush branches and leaves needed to be pruned later.

Grindelwald cast a spell nearby, causing the portraits hanging on the castle's outer walls to fly back to their respective rooms.

Seeing the garden returned to normal, the old devil nodded with satisfaction. For the first time, he felt that this place was so beautiful and worth remembering.

……

Nurmengard.

Alison came to the castle again, but this time she was accompanied by her parents.

This place is no longer as dilapidated as Alison saw when Grindelwald escaped from prison. She guessed that the two of them had repaired this place when they traveled to Austria.

As a castle for people to live in, Nurmengard looks good overall, but some small details need to be added and furniture items need to be supplemented.

The two old people rested in the living room while Alison was sent to decorate her room.

When the little wizard came downstairs again, he lazily lay back on the sofa and chatted casually.

"Have you already planned to bring me here to live for a while?"

Dumbledore brought a cup of hot tea and handed it over.

Grindelwald took the tea and answered with a casual hum.

Dumbledore sat down and added: "For the next period of time, you will reflect on yourself here."

Thinking about the day, Alison snorted softly, seeing through the adults' plan.

"What are you reflecting on? You are supposed to be preparing for Dad's birthday. It's strange that you want to celebrate Dad's birthday in Nurmengard, where he has been staying for half a century..."
