Chapter 97: The Rune Alphabet
"Jerry..."
"Grindelwald?!"
Repeating the names mentioned by Rita Skeeter, although the relationship between Jerry and Tom could never have been guessed by Lucius Malfoy, who had not seen "Cat and Mouse", the fear brought to him by the surname Grindelwald made his hands tremble.
Even, when Lucius Malfoy calmed down a little, he couldn't help but face Rita Skeeter and affirmed:
"Skeeter, Grindelwald... Can you be sure it's Grindelwald? ”
"yes, I'm sure."
"Then your master, he... Does he have any other requirements? ”
"Nope."
Rita Skeeter smiled and said, "Mr. Malfoy, for the greater good, my master just wants to find a time to talk to you, I don't think you will refuse, right?" ”
"I... No, I mean of course not. ”
"What about time?"
Rita Skeeter asked, "Three days later, it's still the same time we meet, do you think it's okay?" ”
"Yes, you can."
After taking a deep breath, Lucius Malfoy nodded, and immediately pressed his aching wrist without missing a trace.
Obviously.
Lucius Malfoy was a little puzzled.
Why did Rita Skeeter's owner, whose surname was Grindelwald, echo the Death Eater mark on his wrist?
It would have been easier for Louis to answer this.
Because, in Harry's mental world, Louis manipulated the silent magic to complete the soul search, which can be said to be fresh in Voldemort's memory.
Therefore, when Rita Skeeter revealed her distillery mark, the part of the silent magic that condensed into the distillery mark could naturally awaken the part of the magic that Voldemort used to condense the Death Eater mark, thus giving Lucius Malfoy the illusion that the two marks echoed each other.
And then...
This is where the wonderful misunderstanding arises.
Lucius Malfoy mistakenly believed that the two generations of Dark Lords had the intention of joining forces, and after saying goodbye to Rita Skeeter, he hastily called an emergency family meeting, deciding to get more Death Eaters back to negotiate with the Grindelwald heirs, and at the same time, he also sent his wife Nacian Malfoy and son Draco Malfoy to a safer place.
After being busy for a while, when Lucius Malfoy was the only one left in the empty Malfoy Manor, and a few house-elves, caressing a precious portrait placed in the living room, Lucius Malfoy suddenly thought of something, and couldn't help but sigh secretly, and said in his heart:
"The benefits in your eyes often represent the loss of our family, don't they?"
………………
"Master, what you have commanded has been done."
"Huh? Faster than I expected, what does Mr. Malfoy say? ”
"He's looking forward to meeting you!"
"Nothing else?"
"Nope."
"Alright, Chianti, you go ahead with the original plan for the time being, convince your editor as much as you can, understand?"
"Pajamas? Master... I see what you mean! ”
After ending the silent magic call with Rita Skeeter, Louis didn't care about the slight discrepancy between the two calls, and after knowing that he would be able to talk to Lucius Malfoy about the business of the Swift Boots in three days, he was undoubtedly very satisfied with her efficiency.
Of course.
Louis was also well aware of Grindelwald's name and played a crucial role in it.
Otherwise, as one of the oldest and richest Divine Twenty-Eight Clans (pure-blood wizard families) in the wizarding world, Lucius Malfoy, the speaker of the Malfoy family, is really not something anyone can see if they want to.
Now that he was sure that he would have the opportunity to meet with Lucius Malfoy once, Louis was 80% sure that his original plan would be completed after only a little deliberation on the follow-up plan.
The remaining 20% chance of failure...
Well.
If Lucius Malfoy really couldn't be persuaded by profit, Louis obviously didn't mind giving him a blow of disillusionment.
Who is it not a dog for?
If you really want to identify Voldemort's master, no.... Let's just make Voldemort into a body!
Then, after the morning's herbal medicine class was over, when Louie, the twins, Galen and other friends had just finished lunch, he noticed that Anne, who was holding a magic book in her arms, had left the Hufflepuff table, and he smiled and said, "Anne may be in a hurry, I'll accompany her to see the magic book first, where will we meet?" ”
"We're going to go to the Quidditch pitch with Angelina and Arya."
The two brothers, George and Fred, replied in a neat manner, and looked at Galen and said:
"Galen, what about you?"
"Me? I want to see Hagrid! ”
Galen smiled and said, "I've been talking to Hagrid during the Christmas holidays, and he said he has a very cute new pet, do you want to check it out?" ”
"Let's go back in the evening!"
George, who obviously felt that Quidditch was more tempting than his new pet, the Fred brothers laughed, "Louie, do you need us to wait for you in the stadium?" ”
"No need."
Louis shook his head and said with a smile: "You guys have fun in the stadium, I may go to Hagrid later, and then I will meet Galen first!" ”
"Uh-huh, no problem!"
With that, Louis said goodbye to the twins, Galen, and the others, got up and left the Gryffindor table, and met Anne outside the auditorium.
Also a Muggle-born wizard, although Anne's magical talent is slightly better than Galen's, it is still below average among the freshmen.
However, it may be influenced by Louis, Anne's learning attitude is very good, and now her grades in Hufflepuff can be described as at the top, and she is no longer the timid appearance when she first came to Hogwarts, and her smile is obviously a little more confident.
So, when Louis just walked up to Anne, she greeted him warmly: "Hi! Louie, long time no see! ”
"Well, long time no see!"
Aiming at the magic book held on Anne's chest, Louis asked curiously, "Anne, is this the magic book you found during your vacation?" ”
"Hmm..."
Her cheeks were slightly red, Anne looked away with an uneasy expression, and said softly, "Louie, originally... Originally, I went to the bookstore to pick out Christmas gifts for you, but I was fascinated by the book when I walked into the bookstore. It... It seems to be alive, and I can even hear it talking to me occasionally! ”
"Talk?"
Louis pondered for a moment and continued, "Anne, can you hear what it says?" ”
"I can't hear clearly..."
"Can I read the book, then?"
"Huh... To give! ”
Taking over this somewhat old book from Anne, Louis naturally used silent magic to perceive it first, but he did not notice the slightest trace of the use of magic from this book.
"Is it possible that Anne is hallucinating?"
Shaking his head secretly, Louis directly rejected the first hypothesis that came to mind, and then opened the book with all his magic shield open.
By the time the book reaches the first page...
"Huh?"
Staring at the strange patterns recorded in the book, Louis couldn't help but raise his eyebrows in some surprise, and said in his heart:
"It's like a kind of magic text, or... Is it the Rune alphabet?"
Instead, it was Anne on the side.
As the contents of the book came into view, the strange words reflected in her eyes, at this time...
It was as if it had come to life!
"I... Where's my little bear? ”
………………
PS1: Voldemort was still a very charismatic leader in the early stage, and I feel that it may be because of the Horcruxes later, and it has become very scummy...
PS2: A matter of personal preference, prefer Grindelwald, for the greater good ... Ollie gives!
PS3: Cheekily ask for recommendation tickets and collections, I've been stuck at home recently, and it's really in a bad state, thank you~
