Chapter 103 Return to Gellert Grindelwald Castle
Just as Gellert Grindelwald blasted open the door, Albus Dumbledore, who was eating a piece of cake in Hogwarts, seemed to sense something and dropped the fork he was using on the table.
"Damn it, can't you be normal for once? With all this noise, Severus and I are going to get arrested tomorrow." He slapped his older brother on the head with a paw.
I feel like my older brother has gone mad from being locked up. Is this still the elegant, aristocratic brother of mine?
Now, with his unkempt white hair, disheveled appearance, and unkempt demeanor, it's a bit of an eyesore.
“Let’s go back to my castle first.” Gellert Grindelwald then took his secondhand wand and 'Apparition' and left.
“Severus, I know you have many questions for me. Come with me first.” I took Severus’s hand and 'teleported' away.
We had all left by the time the Aurors who were guarding the vicinity arrived.
As I led Severus along a path, we soon came to an ancient castle.
This ancient and noble French castle is like a dazzling pearl, set in the vast land of France.
Its appearance is magnificent and grand, exuding a strong historical atmosphere and noble temperament.
The main building of the castle is made of solid stone, and tall walls surround it, as if telling the story of its past glory.
The city walls are equipped with watchtowers and fortifications, demonstrating the castle's former important military status.
The castle’s main gate is a huge arched gate, inlaid with exquisite wrought iron decorations, showcasing a high level of craftsmanship.
Upon entering through the main gate, a wide avenue leads directly into the castle, flanked by neatly trimmed lawns and flowerbeds, shaded by lush trees and filled with the fragrance of flowers.
The castle's architectural style blends various elements, including Gothic spires and flying buttresses, as well as the ornate decorations and symmetrical structures of the Renaissance period.
The castle's roof, covered with red tiles, glittered in the sunlight.
The castle's outer walls are covered with green vines, which complement the ancient stones, adding a touch of vitality and romance.
The castle's windows come in various shapes, some round, some square, and some arched, all inlaid with stained glass. Sunlight streams through the glass into the castle's interior, creating a dreamlike atmosphere.
The castle is surrounded by a beautiful garden, filled with various flowers and plants, where it is spring-like all year round.
There is also a fountain in the garden, the water of which is crystal clear and sparkles in the sunlight.
This was Severus's first time visiting Gellert Grindelwald Castle, which was even bigger than Malfoy Castle.
"Not bad, it's still the same after all these years." He took Severus's hand and walked towards the castle gate.
"Ayers, have you been here before?" Severus asked curiously, following my steps.
“I’ve only been here once.” I came here with Riddle last time, how could I dare tell Severus the truth?
I need to ask the sponsor first, didn't they say it wouldn't backfire?
(Dear sugar daddy! It's an emergency! Can I reveal my relationship with another person in front of one of my targets? Will I be forced to break up with him immediately if I do?)
[Jin: Son of the host, it's my pleasure to tell you, no!]
(Hey, if I tell Severus that Riddle and I are in a relationship, will he get angry and break up with me?)
[Jin: Host, son, no way! The system has already taken care of this for you. Even if you and one of your target characters do intimate things in front of another, neither of them will feel unhappy.]
(Great, thank you so much, my sponsor! You're truly my father, you're so good to me.)
[Jin: However, host's son, the person you're trying to win over, and whoever sees this situation, must be someone you're already in a romantic relationship with, otherwise your affection level will drop.]
(OK, no problem, I understand.)
He happily pulled Severus into Gellert Grindelwald Castle.
"Dian Dian." Standing at the gate, I had no idea where to find that slovenly old man.
"Second Young Master, the Eldest Young Master asked me to take you and your friends to the restaurant." Spot, the house-elf who suddenly appeared in front of us, politely led the way to the restaurant.
It seems that even though Gellert Grindelwald was imprisoned in Nurmengard, it didn't affect the operation of his castle.
After all, it seems there are quite a few house-elves here maintaining this castle.
The restaurant is spacious and tall, with a huge crystal chandelier hanging from the ceiling, sparkling with dazzling light and illuminating the entire restaurant as if it were daytime.
The walls are adorned with exquisite murals depicting the history and legends of the castle, making one feel as if they are immersed in an ancient story.
The restaurant's tables and chairs were neatly arranged, each table covered with a clean white tablecloth and adorned with exquisite tableware and fresh flowers.
The chair's backrest and armrests are adorned with exquisite carvings, exuding unparalleled luxury and comfort.
In the center of the restaurant is a huge fireplace, with flames roaring and radiating warmth.
Next to the fireplace is a huge dining table, large enough to seat dozens of people at the same time.
The table was laden with a variety of delicious foods, including roast chicken, roast steak, roast salmon, as well as various fruits, desserts, and drinks, making one's mouth water.
I pulled out a chair for Severus, and only after he sat down did I pull out my own stool and sit down. The house-elf laid out napkins for us, and I could tell that Severus was not used to it.
"It's alright, Severus. Just eat as you normally would. Don't worry too much about table manners." I knew Severus wasn't used to these eating habits; his family hadn't taught him these complicated table manners since he was little.
"Hmm." Severus felt a little uncomfortable talking about this place, but with Ayers' reassurance, he seemed to feel much better.
"Second Young Master, the Eldest Young Master may still need to take a bath for a while. He told us we can serve the dishes first," said the house-elf standing next to me.
"Serve the food. Let him eat by himself later. We can't let him go hungry." I was hungry, who cared when Gellert Grindelwald was going to eat?
"Yes, Second Young Master, please wait a moment." The house-elf then withdrew to prepare to bring up the chopping block.
“Ayers, this isn’t a good idea,” Severus said politely.
"It's alright, Severus. That's how you treat your brother, otherwise he'll take advantage of you." That's how you treat Gellert Grindelwald.
“Okay.” Severus had never seen me treat anyone like this before. It seemed like no one had ever been treated this way by me. Gellert Grindelwald was an exception.
