"If it's a secret, then this secret should be related to me. Since it's a secret related to me and I don't know about it, then it's a bit too much."
In the Demonic Celestial Castle, Jon looked at the man in front of him who had appeared long ago. His expression wasn't particularly good.
Of course, if someone encountered such a situation, they wouldn't be happy either.
In theory, he should be considered as being scammed by an immortal, right?!
"If you want to say it like that, then I don't have any objections. But you should know that this matter isn't my fault. I looked for you because I really thought highly of you. I gave you that stone as an additional gift from Senior Helga. I don't mean anything else."
In fact, Grindelwald's tone was very normal, but to Chown, there was a sense of cynicism in it. He wondered if it was because he had been locked up in the tower for so many years that he had developed a problem from being bored.
"If you don't write that expression on your face, I think I will like talking to you even more."
Grindelwald looked like a middle-aged man full of mature charm. Jon admitted that he was very charming, but it didn't affect him at all.
Jon looked at him in annoyance. When he came in, Dreier appeared beside him and told him about Grindelwald's arrival.
Because Jon didn't know what Grindelwald wanted, he only knew that he came to ask for something from Helga and himself, so he didn't need to be polite.
In fact, he could more or less guess what Grindelwald wanted to ask for. Jon was very clear about his identity. Although Grindelwald came to look for Helga on the surface, Helga wasn't in a good condition right now, so he didn't leave. Obviously, he was waiting for Jon.
What could Jon do? Among all the things he could do, there was only one thing that Grindelwald was interested in, and that was to get close to Dumbledore.
"What a headache of love!"
Jon raised his head and said. He didn't look at Grindelwald, and his tone wasn't sarcastic.
Grindelwald also admitted to it.
Caring was caring, and the past was the past. At his age and realm, there was no need to avoid these things. Since he could do it, he was not afraid of what others would say.
Moreover, this was not something to be ashamed of.
"After becoming a Legend, I don't have so many troubles anymore. Anyone who has stayed in a place like the Tower for so many years would be able to get over those things. As for now, I just hope that I can salvage a little. So many years have passed, what else is there to be troubled over?"
"If that's the case," Jon's interest was piqued. "Have you forgiven Dumbledore for his betrayal, or are you planning to ask Dumbledore to forgive your … actions?"
"What's there to forgive? My position was different from his back then, so I couldn't ask him to fully understand my actions. As for me, what he did was not wrong. Everyone has their own reasons. "
Grindelwald was obviously no longer the Grindelwald from back then. "Besides, at my age, there is no difference between forgiveness and non-forgiveness in the world. Let's just forget about these things. There's no need to be calculative about them anymore. "
It sounded a little sad, but this matter had nothing to do with Jon.
Since Helga allowed Grindelwald to appear here, it meant that he knew about Grindelwald's intentions and acquiesced to it. If that was the case, then no matter what happened in the past, Jon wouldn't reject Grindelwald's request.
Because this was no longer a request. This was a transaction.
Jon was helping Grindelwald to do some things here, and in return, Grindelwald would help him to do some things.
There were no restrictions on these things, but to Jon, it was precisely because there were no restrictions that it was more precious.
With Helga's current state and status, he obviously didn't need any favors from Grindelwald. These things were naturally prepared for Jon.
However, Jon was very happy about it. He even hoped that there would be more of them.
It was a pity that there weren't that many Legendary Wizards to exploit. Moreover, Dumbledore was already very good to him. Strictly speaking, Grindelwald and Dumbledore were still family. After the two Legendary Wizards were together, there were even fewer targets for Jon to exploit.
At this time, he naturally had to seize the opportunity to gain more benefits.
"If you're thinking about the reward now, I think you'll be wasting your time. Because regarding the reward for this matter, I've already discussed it with Senior Helga. As for the specific details, Senior Helga will tell you."
Grindelwald slyly smiled. "As for the matter I want to ask for your help, we still have a lot of time to discuss it later. Let's not talk about it for now."
After he finished speaking, before Jon could react, he directly disappeared from Jon's sight.
With the permission of the owner of this place, there were simply too many ways for a Legendary Wizard to leave this place.
Jon thoughtfully looked at the place where Grindelwald had just stood. He raised his head and asked Drell, "Can you tell me why Grindelwald can enter and leave the Demonic Celestial Castle?"
…
"I think this matter is really a misunderstanding."
Dumbledore smiled and said to Snape, who was sitting opposite him, "Let's not talk about you. Even I didn't feel that someone had used Phantom Transference in the castle, right?"
Snape, who was already fully dressed, nodded. This was indeed true. If someone had used Phantom Transference in the castle, there was no reason for him not to feel it.
"So, this is actually also Jon's lie?"
"Lies are too unpleasant to hear. Severus, although you're angry, you have to watch your words."
Dumbledore tasted the tea in the cup. "The lemon tea today is very good. Do you want some too?"
"No, thank you. My wound hasn't healed yet. Drinking the lemon tea now will dispel the effects of my magic potion."
Snape clearly wasn't very angry. His big reaction was more because Jon had silently appeared in his room and brought about … embarrassment.
This was too much. However, it was also strange that he didn't sense the Phantom Transference.
"Maybe it's a magic spell that he modified himself? It's normal that he didn't sense it since it hasn't been checked by the Ministry of Magic. "
"Oh, Severus."
Dumbledore grinned. "I think that's another misunderstanding."
