Chapter 265: “Exposing One By One”

There was a sudden explosion sound from an unknown place, and two figures suddenly appeared from the air. The two appeared here just to let the shorter figure take a breath, and after a short rest, they disappeared in place again.

After Apparating a few times, they finally reached their destination. Sean sat down on the ground. He shook his head vigorously, trying to suppress his stomach.

Grindelwald didn’t feel anything. He smiled with his hands behind his back, “You just need to get used to it, Sean. I just left something in you. Feel free to learn it later. It won’t be long before you can Apparate yourself.”

“Okay...” Sean nodded weakly and almost vomited out.

“Long-distance Apparition is always like this. You have to get used to it.” Grindelwald walked over and patted Sean on the shoulder.

A warm current rose from his lower abdomen and then spread to every corner of his body. Sean suddenly felt much more relaxed. Only then did he have the strength to stand up and look around.

There is nothing here, only dark ground and damaged stone pillars. They are standing on the ground of a building complex, and its underground level has obviously been completely destroyed.

In front of Sean was the broken stone slab that had been lifted, and he could see the dark, chapped ground below through the crack, like a dark pit. Some stone decorations with vaguely preserved shapes can be seen, such as broken statues and broken iron railings.

Sean immediately remembered the name of this place. Père Lachaise Cemetery. This is where Grindelwald gave his speech and where he burned Paris.

Sean looked sideways at Grindelwald, wondering what he meant by bringing him here. Grindelwald waved to Sean and then lightly jumped into the hole leading to the ground. Sean took out his wand, cast a Levitation Charm, and floated in with him.

After entering the ground, he saw the real content inside. It was like a small Colosseum, with a circular stone square in the middle and surrounded by stands. If you go up the steps on the stand, you can still see the dark entrance to it.

Of course, now the place has been completely destroyed, and the previous appearance can only be seen through some wreckage. The only strange thing is that only the circular stone square in the center still maintains its original appearance.

Grindelwald walked to the very center of the square. He raised his wand like a conductor and then waved it lightly.

There was a sound of sparks detonating, and flames lit up in the ruins where the torches had been placed, illuminating the dark underground brightly, and the light drilled outside along the crack above the head.

“They didn’t even repair it here. Don’t they know how to protect the buildings with historical significance?” Grindelwald sighed.

Grindelwald smiled and looked at Sean, “Do you know where this is?”

“The place where you set the fire.”

“Yes, the cemetery of Père Lachaise Cemetery,” Grindelwald said with a nostalgic smile on his face, “but I have to correct you. Setting the fire is a trivial matter. This was the first time I shared my ideas with the entire wizarding world and also the place where many comrades-in-arms joined me. It’s memorable, isn’t it?”

Sean glanced at him, and then asked hesitantly, “Professor?”

“Shh,” Grindelwald stopped what he was about to say, “I know what you want to ask me. My philosophy, my experience, or did I really kill those people?”

He paced the square with his hands behind his back, with an expression of enjoyment on his face, “Don’t doubt me, Sean. What you think in your mind and what your professor said is true.”

Sean was silent for a moment. He didn’t know how to continue talking.

No matter what kind of ideas the Guards have, even if they are sure that he has bad intentions, one thing that cannot be denied is that Grindelwald committed various crimes decades ago.

In the following decades, he became the principal who taught and educated people and even gave him a lot of help as a freshman who just entered the wizarding world.

Emotionally, Sean is on the side of Grindelwald, but intellectually, he cannot ignore that his tutor has committed numerous crimes.

Grindelwald glanced at him sideways, showing a gentle smile, “Sean, do you know what your greatest weakness is?”

“Grindelwald, you are under arrest.”

“Ma’am, do you understand what you’re talking about?” Grindelwald answered quickly.

Marshall was much braver than her team members, and she did not back down, “I understand very well, and I understand one thing that you haven’t understood your situation yet.”

“I assume you learned a lot of spells when you’re at school,” Grindelwald smiled, “However, I have a question. You are really planning to arrest me?”

“You are arrested for the crime you’ve committed.”

“Is that so?” Grindelwald moved his wand and then pointed to a middle-aged wizard behind the crowd.

The man had short, clean hair and a long beard. After Grindelwald pointed at him, he shook involuntarily and then retracted his face a little into the hood.

“Onassis, are you okay?”

The man’s pupils shook violently.

“I don’t think the name Onassis sounds good enough,” Grindelwald continued. “Maybe your ancestor is better, right, Mopsus?”

Sean’s pupils narrowed slightly. Mopsus is the famous ancient Greek Seer.

Grindelwald pointed to another person behind the crowd, “And you, can you people from the Calchas family cooperate with Mopsus? It’s amazing that such a big hatred can be put down.”

Sean frowned. Calchas was also an ancient Greek Seer who lost to Mopsus in a duel and then committed suicide in shame and indignation. Grindelwald was like a head teacher who was calling the roll, and he pointed to wizards hiding behind the crowd one after another.

“That girl, Cassandra Vablatsky, should be your great-grandmother, right? Heh, she and I are old friends.”

“You, your family is a branch from your original family, right? You people shine brilliantly, but you want to remain anonymous?”

“You...”

“And you...”

He pointed out one name after another. Sean knew most of the surnames mentioned by Grindelwald, and they were all famous wizards in ancient times.

Most of them are Seers, A wizard who can see into the future. Even if they are not a Seer, their ancestor is still a very well-known great wizard in the past thousands of years.

He even heard the name of Ambrosius, which was Merlin’s last name.

According to Grindelwald, the descendants of these ancient families, all hid their identities, and now, they gathered here.

Sean’s breathing became heavier. He seemed to see a big net that had already been woven around him. His thoughts diverged, and his past experiences suddenly appeared in front of him.

The stolen key that can connect the Misty Land and reality, the person who spoke by Gormlaith Gaunt, the revived Horned Serpent.

In the center, Grindelwald named them all. Marshall did not show anything in her expression. She said in a deep voice, “You don’t need to worry about the past of our team members. Grindelwald, your time is over.”

“Really?” Grindelwald smiled.

After that, a flame soared into the sky.
