All the good things in the world are really of no use to us except to use them. --"Robinson Crusoe"

The crisp knock on the door awakened me, who was unknowingly distracted during the reading interval. I blinked slowly in response, and then I reacted and stood up to help the visitor open the door.Just on this few short steps, I secretly rubbed my waist. Now I am four months pregnant. I don’t know how others are. At least I am often absent-minded, blank-minded, unresponsive, and back The pain, combined with the horrible morning sickness, was unbearable, although I don't regret being pregnant with Gellert.

I looked at the two people standing in front of the open door and I was a little surprised. Since I came to this castle in the northern snowy region, I haven’t seen Gellert and Tom seriously for a long time. only one month?Or two months?My brain just turned a corner, I stared at their faces for a while, then apologized and asked them to come in, my brain is a bit out of order now, but I still feel that they must have something important that needs my participation.

As we all sat in our seats, an eerie silence fell over the three of us, and I had no idea what their purpose was, nor did they seem to want to speak first.I was not in a hurry, but started to observe their expressions silently, um, yes, Tom was preoccupied, as could be seen from the corners of his mouth and frozen eyes.As for Gellert... yes, haughty and unflappable as always, but there's an amused, mocking look in his eyes, as if he's watching a show worth applauding, and I'm not sure about that.

Of course the silence between us can't last forever, and Gellert's, Tom's, and mine's time is precious after all.Tom seemed to have organized his words. He looked up into my eyes with a sincere attitude and a positive light in his eyes, and he said, "Ursula, I'm really sorry to bother you, but my current I really need your help." I was silent, looking back at him faintly, I am not sure whether his intention of coming is good or bad for the family, but it will cost Tom a lot of money to get around and come here Seeing me, I can only think of one thing he wants to get - the Three Hallows, and the Peverell's Notebook in my father's hand is probably the goal that Tom is determined to get, so can I promise him? Have to think about it.

I said softly, "So, Tom, what do you think?" I stared at the two men in front of me. I knew that if it wasn't for Gellert's permission, Tom wouldn't even have the chance to enter this castle. They must have passed by before. Negotiated and reached an agreement, maybe I should test it out a little?Tom hesitated for a moment, and then answered: "Yes, I think you should understand, I need that piece of Peverell family's notebook, it is very useful to me, if possible..." Tom was somewhat He fidgeted and twisted his body, but insisted on continuing, "I think you may be able to provide us with assistance and persuade your father to lend me this notebook?"

Hearing Tom's request, I pondered, turned my head to look at Gellert and fell into thought. I am indeed qualified to take them to Gringotts to retrieve this notebook, but I am not sure what will happen after they obtain this notebook. What are the consequences? As for the conditions of exchange, they are of secondary importance. "Ursula, I remember your father Lancer Hawes being watched closely by Albus Dumbledore, and don't forget that Quasimodo Petyr Butcher was always trying to If your father, who is the director of the Department of International Cooperation of the British Ministry of Magic, continues to be impeached, no matter what will happen after the Three Hallows are found, judging from the current situation, it will not be worse than this situation." Gellert Holding his chin with his left hand, he lowered his eyelids and said to me calmly facing me with a persuasive gaze. "Besides, not everyone has the ability to find them, otherwise the Three Deathly Hallows wouldn't be worthy of being called the gift of Death or the Hallows to control Death after all these years, right?" Tom tacitly picked up Gellert immediately. Then, he scanned us with burning eyes.

They are actually right, nothing worse than the current situation will happen, and since those three brothers, I have never heard of anyone who has really collected all three holy artifacts to become the master of the god of death, and even the god of death is invisible The existence of clothing has been submerged in the dust of history.Although I know Gellert's strength and power, I don't believe he can obtain them so easily.At the same time, since I came to Germany, I have already felt that Gellert and the saints are shrinking and starting to turn from light to darkness. Although he didn't let me get too many clues, it is always right to have an intuition in this regard , I need to prepare early.That being said, I can really do it if I do my best. Whether it is to help my father by making waves in British society, or to finally get Gellert to accept my favor, I will make a lot of money. If you make a profit, you can invest in Tom by the way. Giving charcoal in the snow is more valuable than icing on the cake.

Having cleared my mind, I made up my mind, nodded to them, and said in a deep voice, "No problem. I am willing to persuade my father Lancer to take Peverell's notes from Gringotts and forward them to you." Gellert smiled lightly, straightened his waist and said to me: "It doesn't need to be so troublesome, as long as your father is willing to let us borrow it, I don't have a hobby of stealing people's love for no reason." My heart was quietly relieved. In this way, my success rate will be even greater. I took a look at Gellert's demeanor and wisdom at the same time. He really deserves to be the Dark Lord.

"Thank you very much for your generosity, Miss Ursula." Tom thanked me politely, but in his eyes I was already familiar with the excitement and longing for being strong, as well as the sense of victory and joy for achieving goals .I smiled at him. The reason why I joined the Volpes Knights to assist Tom is because Tom has the talent of a genius, and he also has the perseverance and determination to reach the top.

After the initial negotiation, I felt a churn in my stomach, and the uncomfortable feeling of vomiting made my face turn pale. Gellert also turned serious, and quickly stood up, walked behind me, patted my back, and helped me with concern. I suppress the gagging feeling in my chest. "Since we have reached an agreement on this, I will not bother you, and an hour is almost up, so I will wait for the good news, and you know where to find me." Seeing this scene, Tom immediately bowed Saying goodbye to us, he turned his head and smiled at us ambiguously when he went out, and then gently helped Gellert and me close the door.

When I felt a little better, I held Gellert's hand back, lowered my eyes and asked him silently: "I'm sorry, but can I ask you a word?" Gellert hooked his lips, In response, he snorted not too badly. "Our child, do you have any plans after he is born?" My eyes fell on our intertwined hands. Maybe it was because of my pregnancy that my mood was a little unstable. I actually don't know why I am I asked this question, but as a question that has been lingering in my mind these days, there is no reason to swallow it now that I have said it.

"..." Gellert's hand on my back stopped on my neck, and his fingers caressed casually on my neck, giving me the illusion that he would be crushed to death by him in the next moment, but he It was only after being silent for a while that I opened my mouth and said: "I have my own plans, but trust me, I will not treat this child badly, and of course you!" When he made this promise, his voice was as low and calm as ever. But sensitively heard the daze and bewilderment hidden underneath, seeing this, I couldn't ask any more questions.I know, he is not ready to be a father, especially the child in my womb is still a disreputable illegitimate child, I sighed and changed the subject, no longer talking about this sharp issue, but before the child is born we There is still a long time to come, and even if he agrees now, I can't marry him as Mrs. Grindelwald right away, can I?Gellert Grindelwald, the Dark Lord, is far more reliable than those hypocrites who pay lip service.

Of course, nothing else happened today, but I believe that the matter of borrowing notes is endless, and I always feel that something that we cannot grasp has happened quietly, but I can't grasp the key idea. .For this reason, I thought about it irritably all day, but in the end, under the pressure of the pregnancy reaction, I gave up this thought that consumed a lot of my brain power.

During this Christmas break, Gellert, Tom, and I formally came to an agreement on this issue, and I was a bystander at the historic moment when the treaty was concluded.Of course, at the same time, I also made an unbreakable oath to testify for them. When the light of magic disappeared between the two men's wrists, I breathed a sigh of relief, so that they would not be afraid of them doing evil things with the Deathly Hallows. Alright.

After the ceremony, Tom looked at me with questioning eyes, as if to say, Ursula... What should you do in order to fulfill the agreement? "I will leave for England immediately, ask my father's opinion and take Peverell's notes from Gringotts. Of course, Tom, I will send the notes to you as soon as I have news. Please stay at Hogwarts Waiting for the owl mail," I said politely to Tom, and then I turned to look at Gellert.After all, if I am pregnant, I still need to ask Gellert's influence if I want to return to the UK, and I am not qualified to leave without saying hello on Gellert's territory. Of course, Gellert has no objection , although I didn't speak, but just smiled kindly at me, and my heart settled down instantly with a tacit understanding. "Is that so? Then I'm relieved." Tom seemed very satisfied, and smiled at us as he prepared to leave, "Then now that the Christmas holiday is almost over, it's time for me to go back to Hogwarts. Finally, I wish Hogwarts Good day, Miss Si and Your Excellency Grindelwald." I hooked the corners of my lips, it was really rare to see Tom wishing so sincerely, although there were prerequisites.

I stood at the window and watched Tom leave Grindelwald Castle. When he disappeared from my sight, I stroked my belly that had begun to protrude, and lowered my head and smiled wryly.I also have to start fulfilling my promise, I hope Merlin will bless my trip smoothly, I have known for a long time that Professor Dumbledore has been paying close attention to Gellert, it has not been long since Gellert last appeared in Hogwarts , Gellert's influence once again set foot in the UK, probably their reaction will be very violent.And Gellert stood beside me with his arms folded, and he was also looking at Tom who was going away with me. He squinted his eyes and seemed to be calculating something. Seeing this scene from the side, I thought, but there is no way to do it. Thing, Tom is still too weak right now, but having excellent use value might not be a bad thing for him.

Gellert didn't make me wait too long. When I was ready, the assistant that Gellert prepared for me was already waiting in the reception room of Grindelwald Castle. Whenever I faced such a situation, I couldn't help secretly praising Saints their action.And after I arrived at the reception room with the suitcase casted by the traceless expansion spell, I was not surprised to find that Albert von Hoss appeared in front of me. After Gellert told me earlier that he did not Not in person, but after a certain member of the Saints came out, I knew that even so, he would not drop the price to find a weak chicken to be my partner.This fellow of mine is an important figure from a branch of the German family, so to speak, he is my uncle. Although he has a high status as the younger brother of the patriarch, the reason why Albert can be widely accepted by the Howth people I admire him because he started from the bottom of the Ministry of Magic under his name, and he became a senior advisor to the Ministry of Magic of several countries at a young age by virtue of his own ability. I have heard of his name since I was very young. The most amazing thing is that he is also serving Gellert, he can hide it really well, I thought with admiration, and I have to say that Gellert's personality is really strong, I heard that my Uncle Albert is very proud Very much.

The moment I opened the door, I saw Uncle Albert who seemed to be studying the paintings in the collection of Grindelwald Castle in the waiting time. When he heard my voice, he turned and said to me gently: "It's been a long time See you, Ursula, you were a little girl when I visited Lanser last time, I didn't expect you to grow so big after not seeing you for many years." The dark blue fox's eyes were rare to see his family Concerned, the polite smile I kept suddenly became much more real.And just in this short communication, my affection for this little uncle who only met a few times when I was a child rose instantly. He is really a super qualified Huss, and after my little inquiry Finding that Albert's talent really deserves the name, it seems that this trip to the UK can be completely relieved.

After this exchange, we have reached an agreement, and of course we are not shy about it. Albert took me directly from Germany to Diagon Alley in the UK through the Portkey.Of course, our goal is the towering white Gringotts at the end of the road, and I have already obtained my father's authorization for me to freely take items from the vault this time through a letter.

Albert led me through the dense crowd, shielding me from the adverse influence of the outside world in a considerate and gentlemanly manner. I thanked him gratefully while protecting my stomach. I can't imagine if the child in my stomach If something goes wrong, what will Gellert do.When we were standing in the hall of Gringotts, I suddenly thought of an important thing. I might not be able to bear the trolley under the ground of Gringotts. flinched.With a slightly pale face, I talked to the goblins at Gringotts about the opening of the vault, and they were very efficient, and soon a goblin led Uncle Albert and me to the underground vault.

It wasn't until I was sitting in the car that I remembered that I could cast spells on myself to make myself comfortable and immune to wind and speed.Is it really stupid to be pregnant?I secretly felt funny and blamed myself for being stunned, but under the wrapping of the spell, I started to think about it again, whether it was the same when my mother was pregnant, maybe I can write to ask when I go back her opinion.

When I recovered from my daze, I found that we had reached the gate of the vault. I smiled apologetically at the people next to me, and followed them off the small station to the platform outside the gate.I silently watched the goblin stretch out his slender fingers and lightly tap on the door, then I inserted the key into the hole on the door and twisted it, the door slowly moved open, allowing us to walk into.

I followed my father to this treasury to withdraw money, and I already knew the exact location of the note through the magic circle in my hand, so I looked at the piles of gold and silver coins piled up in this big room , antiques, and the bookshelves by the wall, and walked to the second row of bookshelves on the left without hesitation.I remember that when I was a child, I was curiously crawling around on the bookshelf, and by chance I saw it on the fifth floor from the bottom to the top of that bookshelf, and now I am satisfied to see Peverell's notes lying quietly There.I raised my hand and took it down carefully. As an ancient book, even if it is protected by magic, it cannot be moved at will. I don't want the paper of the note to shatter in my hand. I hold it gently, politely Tell Uncle Albert to help me cast a spell to make two copies of this notebook. I believe he can make two copies without destroying the original.

Uncle Albert did not make a mistake, this is a matter of course, I looked at the two brand new books in his hand and heaved a sigh of relief, then put the original in my hand back to its original place, to be honest, I took this Ben Peverell was frightened when he wrote it down. Damage to a precious copy is no small matter.Of course, after completing this matter, we are going to go back to Germany. If we stay in the UK for a little longer, I think no matter how Gellert covers the sky with his hands, and no matter how powerful the Saints are in the UK, the Ministry of Magic and Deng There are many professors who are not good enough to find out. I don't believe that they are all mediocre people who are just dawdling.

We put away the notes and left Gringotts in a hurry. I didn't want to run into any acquaintances in Diagon Alley. After all, we didn't really come to shop, did we?However, Merlin's evil taste is so hateful, just want to see acquaintances, acquaintances appear in front of us.Hyacinth Rozier, a rare Frenchman in Hogwarts, her mother is the eldest lady of the French branch of the Howth family, she should also be called half of Howth, she and I are ordinary friends Well, this time it looked like she was shopping in Diagon Alley for the last time before going back to school, but we ran into each other straight away.

Hyacinth and her mother, Aviana, seemed very surprised to see us. They came up to greet us enthusiastically. Standing behind Uncle Albert, I suddenly thought that maybe their enthusiasm was more about Give it to the successful guy next to me.Of course, I am happy to hear this, because my identity is really a little sensitive now. Sure enough, it is a wise idea for Gellert to let Uncle Albert accompany me back to England.

It didn't take much time for Uncle Albert to deal with their problems with ease, and Uncle Albert and I immediately bid farewell to them who were satisfied.So although we were delayed for a while, the return journey did not have more ups and downs and waves. Then when Uncle Albert and I returned to the reception room, we continued to talk happily for a while Only then are they separated.

I didn't delay when I came back, which is of course the reason why Gellert was so aggressive. The two copies of Peverell's notes were handed over to Gellert in the fastest time.But I don't need to do the next thing myself, not only because it is safer and more concealed to send the promised note to Tom through Gellert's channel, but also because my pregnancy is getting older and Gellert is already pregnant. It is forbidden for me to walk out of the castle casually and be too tired. Of course, I don’t care too much about his domineering, because I have taken a lot of risks when I returned to England last time, unless there are major events like Gellert’s death. Nothing that required me to risk running around.
