[HP+ Fantastic Beasts] Fallen

Riddle motioned to Mars to help him bring his textbooks and bag home, and strode after Dumbledore.

"Professor Dumbledore, please stay - I have a few words to say to you."

"Please say."

Riddle looked around and cast a spell to close his ears, "As far as I know, you invited Abu to be one of the witnesses."

Dumbledore looked at the black-haired boy with those blue eyes - he didn't ask why Riddle would know, obviously he knew the relationship between Riddle and Grindelwald, and replied gently, "Yes. "

"Then do you know that Abramovich doesn't want to stand on either side of you and Grindelwald, and doesn't want to get involved in these things?" Riddle lowered his eyes and said calmly.

"The relationship between you and Mr. Malfoy seems closer than I imagined," Dumbledore blinked. "But people's ideas are always changing, don't you think so, Riddle."

Hearing this, Riddle raised his eyes and met Dumbledore's gaze, "Although it's a bit offensive, I still want to tell you - I'm different from Grindelwald, and similarly, Abu will not be the next you, He's a Malfoy, he's not so 'selfless great', and he doesn't want to be so 'selfless great'."

Dumbledore froze for a moment and didn't speak.

Riddle smiled slightly, "The most knowledgeable and intelligent people will also dig into the corners, don't you think so?"

After finishing speaking, he turned and left, leaving Dumbledore thinking in place.

Dumbledore did want to put Abra into his camp, and even wanted Abra to be the next "Dumbledore".

Some wonderful coincidences allowed the chief Slytherin to have a lot of contact with them, which also showed Abramovich's soft-hearted and kind side.

Dumbledore sighed, but he was really on the verge of a dead end, and I would also like to thank Riddle for reminding him——Abraxas Malfoy is a standard Malfoy, not the pure and innocent one he expected and beautified. It’s not that Abu is “evil” if he is not kind, but that he, as a Malfoy and a Slytherin, is not suitable to be a “great white wizard”.

Regardless of whether Riddle will become the next "Grindelwald", Abramovich will definitely not become the next "Dumbledore".

The current critical situation between the Muggle world and the wizarding world, as well as the imminent duel, made Dumbledore, even as a "wise man", still a little impatient.

Dumbledore sighed again, if he lost this final...

------

"you lose."

Dumbledore wiped the blood from his lips, and pressed the tip of his wand to Grindelwald's Adam's apple.

Grindelwald half-knelt on the ground, Ben's meticulous blond hair became messy due to the fierce duel, he panted violently, stared at the tip of Dumbledore's wand, and suddenly smiled, but his ice blue eyes dimmed.

"After all, I was inferior—I lost."

"Ambition and killing have made you lose your heart, Gellert." Dumbledore looked down at him, with layers of haze in his sky-like eyes.

Although I won, I feel extremely sad.

Looking up at Dumbledore, Grindelwald said, "What about you?"

"..." Dumbledore didn't answer, and silently cast a powerful confinement spell, "Newgarmond's room is ready."

Grindelwald raised his eyebrows, "I thought you would send me to Azkaban—after all, Newgarmond is not as unbreakable as Azkaban."

"If you want to escape from prison, there is no prison in this world that can stop you," Dumbledore said indifferently, "but no one knows better than me whether you will choose to escape from prison."

"No one knows better than you, yes, my 'old friend', is this a parting gift? Al."

Dumbledore didn't answer, the tip of the wand poked Grindelwald's shoulder, "'Old friend', it's time to go."

------

In Newgarmond, Grindelwald's single cell can be regarded as a presidential suite compared with other people's four or eight rooms.

But after all, it is a prison, and it cannot be called comfortable no matter what.

Four monotonous, iron-gray walls, a narrow window with iron bars, a small single bed and a small desk.

All that remains is a small washroom with shower and toilet, and some books proclaiming "love and peace".

Dumbledore turned and left without even stepping into the cell.

The iron door of the cell closed tightly as he left, not even leaving behind the red-haired man.

Grindelwald stared at the closed iron door for a while, then sighed, and sat down on the cold and not soft bedding.

In Newgarmond in autumn, the coolness comes out from the four walls, but he can't even cast himself a warming spell - there is a magic circle to suppress the magic power - in addition to the prison itself, there is also a more powerful one Forbidden Magic Circle - it looks like it was drawn by Dumbledore.

Grindelwald's index fingers crossed each other, his elbows rested on his legs, and his back was straight all the year round, bending down a tired arc.

He said that he believed that he would not escape from prison, but he still drew such a powerful forbidden magic circle. His "old friend", or more precisely, his "old lover", was still duplicity as always.

But as Dumbledore said, he did make the decision to spend the rest of his life in Newgarmond if he lost the duel.

If he wanted to leave this prison, although it would be difficult for him alone, but with his excellent student Riddle and well-trained saints, it would not be too much trouble.

It's just that Grindelwald's pride doesn't allow him to do this. If he does, it would be too ugly to lose.

The only good thing about it is that Riddle is an excellent successor. Although the two of them are not similar in many ways, these differences are harmless.

In the hands of Riddle, even if the saints don't get much development, but for the sake of the unbreakable oath, they won't be treated badly.

Riddle didn't like the Saints—after all, this wasn't Riddle's own army, Grindelwald knew and understood that.

But now Riddle's influence has not been stabilized. Although he is more focused on the cultivation of Death Eaters, he still has to borrow the power of the saints.

In this way, the saint can also contain Riddle a little bit, so that he will not go too far.

However, Riddle's dislike of Muggles can be said to be deep-rooted, so he is more inclined to conquer the wizarding world first; besides, he and the mustache German head of state have never seen each other well. The cooperation between the saint and that person is probably a blow .

But the turmoil outside has nothing to do with him, Grindelwald thought.

For many years, the high-spirited and arrogant light on his body dimmed and extinguished silently in this cold-colored prison.

Even the sunny golden hair has lost its luster.

Could this be his life?

He looked up at the small sky, cut into pieces by the iron bars.

At some point, it was already dark.
