Chapter 181 Accidents that Happened One After Another (Acridine for a Monthly Pass)
"Tomorrow is the last day."
Gellert Grindelwald turned his head and glanced at the closed master bedroom door. After waiting for the gentle sound of a girl sleeping inside, he tiptoed up from the quilt on the ground and waved.
Quietly, he moved the wooden board blocking the door of the room and walked towards the tower above.
Under Elena's strong request (wei), the old man was finally forced to change out of the clothes he had been wearing before, cleaned them and hung them by the fireplace for baking. Therefore, Grindelwald had to temporarily put Eileen down.
Lena wears wizard robes from Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry.
Due to the girl's small stature, the originally roomy wizard's robe looked like she was wearing a severely shrunk black half-mantle on the tall and thin Drindwall.
With the help of the faint starlight, the old wizard returned to his former "cell". Starlight reflected from the hole blown by Elena's magic spell. The gravel on the ground was still the same as when the two left.
, there is no change.
The biting cold wind at midnight surged in from outside the cave entrance. Grindelwald, who climbed to the top of the tower in one breath, was aroused by the cold wind and couldn't help shivering. He subconsciously wrapped the wizard's robe inside, thinking in his mind
He couldn't help but think of all the moments he had spent with that cute and annoying little hybrid Veela in the past few days.
Putting aside the chaotic and colorful first day, the time we spent together after that was generally peaceful. Common enemies and coincident demands are always the easiest reasons to eliminate disputes.
Ever since two generations, one old and one young, reached a consensus in the field of magical animals, Grindelwald really had nothing to hide and taught Elena all the habits and coping methods he knew about magical animals, and Elena
Lina also kept her promise and didn't take the initiative to learn any new magic - except for a cleaning spell. After all, washing clothes and putting away dishes was too much trouble.
The magic traps that Dumbledore originally left in Elena's residence to urge the girl to learn were all reduced to props for the girl to practice explosive spells. Under the guidance of the experienced Gellert Grindelwald, they were simply used
It was completely demolished in less than a day.
Living under the same roof, the sources of various ingredients used by Elena to prepare three meals a day are naturally hidden from Grindelwald's eyes. However, in the face of the temptation of rich and delicious food, Grindelwald, who is already somewhat rebellious,
DeVoe didn't resist for long.
After a brief change of mind, once he accepted Elena's new setting as a greedy little monster, Grindelwald's relationship with the girl gradually became more harmonious - as long as it came to eating, everything was up to Elena.
Lina makes the decision, he just needs to make taste requests occasionally.
The vine shoots coiled around the cracks in the walls and around the window openings were almost completely eaten away, and the snow primrose that once covered the castle has also lost its traces in Nurmengard Castle.
The termite kingdom in the closet on the fourth floor also provides a large amount of nutritious and high-protein "rent".
After tasting crispy termites, Grindelwald rarely took action personally. Faced with the wandless casting and range-of-effect floating spells of the top wizards, it was a dream to escape even one of these large numbers of small creatures.
As for the basic potion ingredients left in Albus Dumbledore's box, they were used to the extreme.
After all, since it can be used as the basic material for brewing primary potions, theoretically speaking, it must be something that can be eaten after certain processing, and for first-year wizards who are exposed to magic for the first time, most of the raw materials
The processing process is not too complicated.
As the relationship between the two became more and more harmonious, Grindelwald would sometimes even take the initiative to stand in front of the kitchen workbench, pick up a kitchen knife and teach Elena about potions and herbalism. Naturally, the bodies of some magical animals were also
One of the teaching tools.
With Grindelwald's one-on-one teaching, coupled with Elena's own knife skills foundation, and the high enthusiasm that made the first generation Dark Lord a little creepy, the little mixed-blood Veela has made great achievements in [Potions], [Herbology], [
Magical Zoology] has shown a talent that far exceeds the study of magic.
Lionfish backbone powder and spicy soup, grilled bat wings, snow primrose bacon soup, fried vine sprouts raven eggs, sweet and sour discolored giant snail meat, stir-fried bat liver, mistletoe berry scones, stir-fried wattle grass,
Crispy termites in castor oil, potato salad in Hokrapu sauce, fried warthog skin, steamed hairy crab, spicy and sour salamander blood, cabbage and bacon soup stewed in poppy shells...
In just five days, Elena has almost mastered the one-year course content for first-year wizards at Hogwarts, and has also classified all the plants and animals that may be involved in the learning process.
It's labeled and perfectly integrated into a variety of imaginative dishes - except, of course, the bezoar, which is the fuel thrown into the fireplace.
Grindelwald had to admit that these days, rather than helping Dumbledore take care of his children, Elena was actually taking the initiative to take care of him more often.
In addition to learning about magic knowledge, whether it is diet, daily life, or searching for ingredients in the castle, Elena has shown tenacity and precocity that are inconsistent with her exquisite appearance. It is obvious that the girl's experience in the orphanage has
This plays an extremely important role.
After having a warm and soft bed and three hearty and regular meals a day, Grindelwald could clearly feel that his old and dry body was beginning to regain its vitality.
Blood color gradually appeared on the originally dry and yellow face, and the whole person was obviously more energetic than before. The strength of the limbs, reaction speed and magic ability have also recovered a lot - if this kind of conditioning can last for half a year to a year,
Grindelwald feels that he can at least return to about 30-40% of his peak strength.
Unfortunately……
"According to the prior agreement, it is estimated that around nine o'clock tomorrow morning, Albus should pick up this white-haired dumpling to take him back to Hogwarts Castle to continue school? That's fine, I can have a leisurely rest every day."
Grindelwald came back to his senses and shook his head with a complicated expression. With his character, he would not show any ugly reluctance in front of Elena. At most, he would just sigh in his heart - to be honest,
, I’ve had a lot of fun these days, that’s enough.
Squatting down, Grindelwald fumbled around the hardwood bed for a while and took out a small iron box.
Opening the iron box, the top layer was covered with a small pile of colorful candies. This made Grindelwald stunned for a few seconds. Then, the old man solemnly took out a small accessory from it and put it into his arms.
He turned around and walked down the stairs without looking back.
"Just think of this as a parting gift for the little one. When Albus comes to pick her up, if you hand it over to her, it will be considered as food money for the past few days."
…………
However, the next morning, Dumbledore was late.
There was only a letter that appeared at an unknown time and was quietly placed at the door of the bedroom.
——[There is some temporary situation, I will pick you up later. Albus]
Of course, the deaf-mute old caretaker who was supposed to return did not appear either.
And what's even worse is...
vomit.
Elena put down the bowl in her hand and raised her head to look at Grindelwald, who was sitting across the dining table and covering his stomach with a faint look of pain on his face.
"What's wrong with you? Is it okay?"
The girl frowned worriedly and couldn't help but ask for the third time - this was already the third time this morning that the first-generation Dark Lord had retched. She made it specially, the old man's favorite dish.
The spicy soup was almost untouched. You know, this has never happened before.
"It's okay, maybe it's just a little... vomit..."
Grindelwald forced a smile and waved his hand towards Elena. Before he could finish speaking, his expression suddenly changed and he vomited out all the breakfast he had eaten before.
The whole room was filled with an unpleasant sour smell.
