"I understand. But if we send Gellar back to Newmungaard … It's hard to guarantee that Tom won't come looking for trouble after seeing the news." Dumbledore habitually wanted to put his fingers together, but he realized that he couldn't do it.
"I wonder if the one who sent me snacks survived." Grindelwald tilted his head and looked at Allen with his eyebrows raised.
Dumbledore ignored him and stared at Allen with his sharp blue eyes. Allen raised his hand and motioned for him to continue.
"Also, I'm worried about the German Ministry of Magic … Tom, Gringotte, and your leaflets … They're already in a mess." Dumbledore ignored Grindelwald and stared at Allen with his blue eyes. "In such a chaotic situation, I'm worried that they won't be able to bear the risk and will want to solve this once and for all … Allen, even if death is certain for us, we can't just end our lives so carelessly."
Grindelwald's strange gray-white pupil blinked at Alan, then retracted it from Alan's body. He looked at his old friend who was worried about him and raised the corner of his mouth. "Abusi, there's no need to be embarrassed. That's the castle I built myself. I'm used to living there, and …"
Dumbledore anxiously stopped him. "Gellar … We agreed …"
"Gellert, it's best if you can understand … Regarding your life imprisonment, this must not be changed rashly …" Alan ignored the anxious Dumbledore and nodded to Grindelwald. "Otherwise, it will definitely cause panic in the international community of the magic world. It may even cause some witches with ulterior motives to have some bad thoughts that they shouldn't have …"
"Allen, he … ugh …" Dumbledore wanted to stand up, but Grindelwald put his finger on his lips.
"Shh!" Grindelwald's voice carried a hint of joy as he mocked Dumbledore. "Abusi, you should really take a look at your own expression. Since Alan came over and only said life imprisonment, you can't rashly change your mind."
"Don't try to play tricks on me …" Dumbledore reacted and looked a little angry at first. Then, he smiled bitterly. "This is a big matter. It's not easy to deal with it. Allen, even if Gatler just wants to live a good life now … Those countries definitely won't want to bear the risk of a second The Dark Lord causing trouble in their country. Tom has already made them suffer enough."
"So, we should take the initiative to take responsibility at this time …" Allen looked serious. "I think the floating city is a better place to imprison Mr. Grindelwald for life … Tom won't come to break the prison again, and with Mr. Allen Harris and Ms. Ravenclaw watching, Mr. Grindelwald won't have any chance to escape from the villa assigned to him …" Allen smiled. "In addition, the population of the floating city has gradually increased recently. I think the residents there will be monitoring Mr. Grindelwald who is imprisoned in the floating city … They will watch you when you wander around the city with excuses like asking for autographs and photos …"
Allen's plan was completely out of Dumbledore's expectation. He didn't expect that Allen seemed to be planning to turn the imprisonment into house arrest. He even planned to let Grindelwald move freely in the floating city.
This also made Grindelwald surprised for the first time today. With the relationship between him and Harris, now that he had inherited his former subordinates' families, he was still at ease to let him move freely in Harris' headquarters.
"Does Owen know what you're planning to do?" Grindelwald asked with uncertainty.
"There are other magic circles that might not agree with this …" Dumbledore said and hesitated for a moment. "Allen, you have enough trouble and hostility now. There's no need to …"
"There are too many things that the other magic circles don't agree with … In fact, before I came, I've already asked my sister Daisy, who is in charge of the International Magic Cooperation Department, to contact the other magic circles. I'll be holding a meeting of the International Union of Wizards and Wizards in London." Allen leaned back a little to let his back be supported by the backrest, looking very relaxed. "Gellert, are you willing to be a vice president and a professor in my university? Although you don't have to spend much money in Hogwarts … during the holidays every year during your sentence, if you want to go out and have some fresh air, you'll still have to spend some gold coins … You'll have to earn that yourself … "
A few days later, in the meeting room at the end of the corridor on the fifth floor of the Ministry of Magic under the Whitehall that connected the Parliament building and Downing Street, two meetings of the International Union of Wizards and Wizards had been held here in a short period of time. This had become a symbol. Recently, the British Ministry of Magic had become the focus of the world's attention, the center of the world's storm.
Allen tidied up his clothes. He was not wearing his usual robe now, but the crimson robe that represented the members of the Parliament of Witchcraft, the highest Witchcraft Court in the United Kingdom. He pushed open the door of the meeting room. Wearing this robe that had nothing to do with the International Union of Wizards and Wizards, he arrived at the meeting room three minutes before the scheduled meeting time.
Although the meeting had not yet started, most of the wizards wearing the robes that represented various wizard cultures had already taken their seats in their respective countries and were chatting with each other. Babajid Aginbad, the president of the Union, looked at Allen with a strange expression. In fact, he really did not want to come to the United Kingdom anymore.
Especially recently, Aginbad had received more letters than he had ever received in his life. There were even anonymous letters that scolded him for being cowardly and irresponsible. There were even representatives of many countries in the International Union of Wizards and Wizards who went directly to Africa to ask him to step in and stop Harris' actions.
But after the incident where he was forced to apologize, Aginbad understood Harris' way of doing things. This time, Harris' controversial actions did not violate any laws in theory. This made Aginbad a little jealous of the news that the Hogwarts seemed to be organizing the laws to make it more rigorous. He hoped that the Union of Wizards under his jurisdiction could have the same opportunity to amend the constitution. Of course, he knew that it was impossible. The member countries would not want the International Union of Wizards and Wizards to have more jurisdiction over them, even if it was the African Magic Circle behind him.
So when Allen said that he wanted to hold a meeting of the International Union of Wizards and Wizards, Aginbad, who was in a difficult position, immediately agreed. He was very willing to cooperate and took the initiative to contact him and advance the meeting time. Aginbad thought that he only needed to be a middleman and other problems could be solved during the meeting. Even if what Allen Harris told him about the meeting had nothing to do with what he wanted them to solve.
"Ladies and gentlemen, I think you all know that the members of the Union are gathered here today because of Mr. Allen Harris." Aginbad tried to straighten his back as much as possible. "Now, let's invite Mr. Allen Harris to explain. Then, the member countries will discuss what he said in order to make the whole international community develop more smoothly and harmoniously …"
After that, Aginbad raised his hand and reached out to Allen. Unlike the habit of the president from Wagado who liked to talk at length, his opening remarks today were surprisingly short and direct.
