Spotted By Grindelwald And Went To Hogwarts

Chapter 365: “Who Went Back In Time?”

Chapter 365: “Who Went Back In Time?”

In the deepest corner, the wind blew a transparent cloak, revealing everything.

It was the invisibility cloak. Sean’s pupils shrank slightly, and he raised his wand.

“It’s coming.” He aimed at the Invisibility Cloak on the ground.

However, no response. There is only one invisibility cloak, and that is the one inherited from the Potter family and the one from the Deathly Hallows.

Sean finally confirmed that Harry’s cloak might have been swapped long ago, and the incident that James once mentioned about the Potter’s house encountering burglars was probably someone who replaced the invisibility cloak.

But why is the invisibility cloak in Nurmengard’s basement?

Sean checked it carefully with his wand, and after ensuring there was no danger there, he walked over and picked up the cloak on the ground. Feeling the feel in his hand, Sean compared his invisibility cloak.

The material is somewhat similar, but this one is lighter and smoother. As soon as the cloak was picked up, he saw the ground that was covered just now.

“This is…”

Dense ancient runes are engraved in seals on the ground, just covered by the cloak. These obscure ancient characters were carved directly on the ground, and some golden and red mixed powders were in the stone slab.

Judging from the traces alone, the rune imprint has lasted very long.

The magic built with runes can be broadly divided into two types. One is your typical ancient magic. A wizard uses runes to communicate the magic power in his body and then uses a combination of ancient runes to release the magic manually.

The second is that wizards used gold powder, silver powder, and other magical materials to outline the rune symbols directly and exert a continuous magic power. Dumbledore once showed him this kind of magic.

This kind of magic script imprint on the ground belongs to the second type but is more difficult. Sean’s knowledge of ancient runes is far from enough, but he can still see the meaning of the symbols.

“It seems to be a whole composed of multiple rune marks.” Sean frowned and muttered.

The rune in front of him is very complicated, and the wizard who carved the symbols must have studied ancient runes deeply.

Sean can barely see the meaning of the combination, one of which should be the mark of life; this mark can maintain the body’s vitality. Even if you don’t eat, you can survive forever, but you won’t feel well because of it.

There is also a rune mark for deep hypnosis. The effect of this thing is great, but to maintain the effect requires a huge amount of magic power.

This is only the thing that Sean can read. There are at least fifteen kinds of magic combined on the ground covered by the cloak, all of which are advanced magic.

But Sean frowned tightly.

It’s like someone is being locked up here. This guess made Sean break into a cold sweat.

The cloak and the rune imprisoned a person in the deepest basement in Nurmengard, and that person has now broken free.

Who is this person? Why did Grindelwald lock them up here?

Sean noticed something was wrong.

He was able to find this place because of Dumbledore’s words, or it was from the fifth person in 1899. Of course, Sean had already guessed that person might be Dumbledore.

Although Grindelwald reminded himself to think carefully about what Dumbledore said, this person was imprisoned in Nurmengard. Logically speaking, Grindelwald certainly knew who was imprisoned in the school he founded.

However, Grindelwald reminded himself to find Dumbledore’s hint, and Sean found something here. This doesn’t make any sense. If Grindelwald wants Sean to know, he does not need to go for such reach.

This means Grindelwald has no idea who is locked up here. He may not even know who is locked up here. He just thought that what Dumbledore said had a deep meaning, so he reminded Sean about it.

Sean stood up slowly, still holding the real invisibility cloak in his hand, and looked at the ancient runes on the ground. Sean took a deep breath, took out a pen and paper, and copied the runes.

With one last look, he put away the cloak and walked out.

Before leaving, he hesitated for a while and finally chose to repair the blasted iron door. He has already taken away the cloak, so it is better to hide the contents inside so that no students wandering around in the middle of the night will find out what is going on here.

It was already evening when we returned to Hogwarts. Sean was busy checking his memory and hadn’t eaten anything since noon. However, he has no appetite for food.

Pulling several cushions together, Sean lay down and looked at the ceiling, thinking about the news he got today. At present, there are several things Sean hasn’t learned from today.

Dumbledore must have returned to 1899 through the time turner, but Sean believed that he must not have just reminded himself that he should have other things to do. Otherwise, it would not have caused such a serious incident about the time that was lost.

Sean is very concerned about the incident that Newt mentioned, which happened in 1899.

This made Sean a little confused, because the time travel incident supposedly happened in “now”. If, in 1899, someone also traveled a long distance, what was that person’s purpose?

Sean touched the cloak in his hand. This cloak looks not much different from ordinary invisibility cloaks.

But why was the invisibility cloak from the Deathly Hallows there?

If it was just to conceal that person’s existence in the underground, ordinary invisibility cloaks should be able to do the same.

However, if Dumbledore did it, Sean believed that he had a lot of ways to cover up that person completely. For this reason, someone deliberately dropped the cloak, which always feels unreasonable.

Moreover, Grindelwald didn’t know this person. Considering Grindelwald’s recent situation, Sean always felt something was wrong.

Grindelwald didn’t know what kind of cooperative relationship Dumbledore and The Returners had reached, nor did he know Dumbledore’s real purpose. Moreover, he has a lot of dissatisfaction with Dumbledore lately. However, Grindelwald reminded Sean to find Dumbledore’s hint, as if he already knew it.

However, after today’s trip, Sean instinctively felt that something was wrong. Grindelwald seemed to be always contradictory.

Although he can’t say what it is, when Sean thinks about it now, he always feels that Grindelwald looks a little weird in some parts.

Sean frowned suddenly. He almost forgot that Grindelwald was a Seer.

Can it be understood that Grindelwald does not know the truth of the whole mystery but can see images about the future through his foreseeing? So, his behavior and words will give Sean a slightly contradictory feeling.

He saw the future, so even though he was dissatisfied with Dumbledore, he would still find a way to cooperate with his actions. So, back to the question, why did he let himself know that a person was once imprisoned in Nurmengard?

This is just part of the mystery, and the unbreakable vow limits Dumbledore, so he can only reveal it to himself, let himself understand it alone, and reveal the truth of the whole thing.

Sean lowered his head, fumbled for a while, and took out a letter and a stone. Sean got this from Dumbledore after he read the letter in Godric’s Hollow and told it to Dumbledore.

Sean picked up the letter and read it carefully again. Finally, he returned his attention to the beginning of the letter.

(Dear Sean,

I understood what you said before, and the reason why I didn’t reply to you in time is that I needed to verify something, and Owl is not as safe as I thought.

According to your story, I guessed what happened to Bathilda. A powerful Obliviate Charm probably caused it, and the caster may have designed something different, like a switch to relit her memories.

As for the switch, I have a few guesses. It’s only a one-time thing, and the effect of the spell is not permanent. Bathilda was an outstanding wizard when she was young, and not many people can cast this kind of spell that lasts for so many years. The second one is that the switch is you, and the person who left the letter wants you to see this.)

Verify something.

It appears that the so-called person who left the letter was Dumbledore himself.

He traveled back in time and manipulated this letter just to remind himself.

But why use such a troublesome method? Or is it that the binding force of the unbreakable vow is beyond Sean’s imagination, and Dumbledore can only remind himself of it in this complicated way?

Judging from the information, Dumbledore went back to the past, did things, tampered with the letter, and even took away the cloak from the Potter family.

However, Sean always felt that something was wrong. The timing of these events doesn’t seem right.

The letter was originally sent to Dumbledore by Grindelwald, and Dumbledore, who traveled to the past, tampered with it.

However, the memory in the letter is still the scene when the two had just met. Ariana’s incident, the two broke up, and Grindelwald made the letter take a while to happen afterward.

If it is said that Dumbledore switched the cloak and imprisoned someone in the basement of Nurmengard, the timing is even more wrong.

Grindelwald founded Nurmengard many years after 1899.

Dumbledore went back long ago. Did he stay there for more than ten years or even longer?

Although Sean doesn’t know much about time travel, he also knows that if a wizard travels nearly a hundred years and stays there for more than ten years, the world may have changed drastically.

In reality, apart from the world losing its time, there were no other more serious accidents.

This is similar to the situation of Eloise Mintumble, who went back five centuries ago; she stayed for only five days and caused a lot of changes.

Sean believes that Dumbledore is more powerful so he will not lose his life like her. But if it is more than ten years or even longer, the current world will definitely not be like this.

Sean frowned deeply.

He twisted the dark red stone in his hand, which was the imitation of the Sorcerer’s Stone that Dumbledore gave him at that time. It could help Sean practice transformation because this stone enhances magic power.

Since obtaining it, Sean has used it many times and got some help. After playing with it for a while, he lowered his head and carefully looked at the imitation in his hand, but no matter how much he observed, he couldn’t find anything different.

It seemed that Dumbledore did not leave a message on it, and Sean put the stone back with some disappointment. The stone made a crisp collision sound, and Sean looked down and found that he had accidentally bumped into the snow globe.

This thing was obtained from Aiken’s house; it can detect the age of the person closest to it, and there are as many snowflakes falling as the person’s age.

However, it is only a small toy.

Xiao En grabbed the snow globe in his hand and tossed it up and down boredly. Just when he was troubled by this mystery, the door of the Vanishing Cabinet suddenly opened.

“Professor?” Sean was surprised to see that Grindelwald came out.

He looked relaxed and said casually, “What? You’re not satisfied to see me now?”

“Not that. You came at a perfect time. I have something I want to discuss with you.”

“Huh? It seems that I came at the right time. Why? Have you solved Albus’ riddle?” Grindelwald walked to Sean and sat down.

“Do you know who is locked in your underground prison?” Sean asked impatiently.

Grindelwald frowned when he heard this, “A person? This doesn’t match the future I see.”

Sean was in no mood to listen to what Grindelwald was saying at the moment. Grindelwald was sitting next to the snow globe, and the snowflakes were falling rapidly inside the ball.

Ten snowflakes, twenty snowflakes, thirty snowflakes, one hundred and fifty snowflakes, one hundred and sixty snowflakes…

Sean’s chest rose as he saw this.
