Study Days at Hogwarts

Chapter 1490 The Master of Death

After hearing what Grindelwald said, Voldemort rarely showed any anger, but raised his wand and prepared to hit Grindelwald with Avada Kedavra.

As long as you kill the guy in front of you, the death stick will be his, and killing happens to be one of the tricks Voldemort is good at.

As for losing at the hands of Grindelwald, Voldemort never thought about it because Grindelwald was too old.

 Time has left heavy marks on this old man's body and also taken away many precious things from him. Today, Grindelwald is no longer as agile as he was when he was young, and he is even less able to dodge Voldemort's extremely deadly killing magic.

Fortunately, at the critical moment, the elixir still worked. The wooden door opened by Grindelwald was like a big slap towards Voldemort, interrupting the fatal killing curse for him.

Voldemort obviously did not expect that someone would attack him with a door. In order to prevent himself from being knocked down by a door, he was forced to give up using the Killing Curse and smash the flying wooden door first to avoid becoming a laughing stock.

Grindelwald is indeed old.

Decades of life in Nurmengard Prison took away many precious things from him, but with the help of the powerful medicinal effect of Felixir, he had regained most of what he had lost.

Grindelwald is still the unscrupulous, murderous but elegant Dark Lord before.

Of course he didn't expect those sawdust to hurt Voldemort. It was just a little trick of Grindelwald. The purpose was to interfere with Voldemort and the Death Eaters behind him and buy himself precious time.

No matter how confident Grindelwald is in himself, he does not think that he will be the opponent of a large group of dark wizards. When Voldemort fully reacts, he will not be far from death.

Fortunately, Grindelwald's hands moved quickly enough. When Voldemort smashed the annoying wooden door, a wisp of magic flames had already pointed forward with the wand in his hand, and the raging magic flames ignited on the scattered wood chips, directly Confusing Voldemort's face.

This unexpected move made Voldemort a little embarrassed. Even the unlucky ones behind him were unfortunately affected. They were ignited by the flying sawdust and turned into blazing torches, dancing amidst the shrill screams. The crazy dance set the dark wizards around him on fire one after another.

Had it not been for a Death Eater who knew how to break the curse, the devil's flames would have been enough to burn the dark wizards crowded in the stairway to ashes.

This is also the main reason why Albert asked Harry and the three of them to master, control and lift the Fire Curse. Sometimes when encountering some bad terrain, you can't just run away easily if you want. Being burned to death by the fire is often the reason. normal.

Of course Grindelwald didn't expect this little trick to kill Voldemort. Everything he did was just to use offense to continuously interrupt Voldemort's fighting rhythm. After all, he was no longer young and his body had become fragile. It can't stand the trouble anymore. If Voldemort is allowed to use his methods, there is a high probability that he will be unstoppable.

 Fortunately, Grindelwald has quite a lot of combat experience, and while catching Voldemort off guard, he can also continue his advantages very well.

When the wall on the right side of the stairs suddenly bulged and hit Voldemort, Grindelwald took the opportunity to blow up the stairs at Voldemort's feet, and then calmly returned to the top floor of Nurmengard Prison before Voldemort's counterattack.

 He knows exactly where his strengths lie.

It's okay to catch Voldemort by surprise temporarily, but trying to kill him is just nonsense.

 So, before Voldemort's Avada Kedavra arrived, Grindelwald directly escaped.

 The entrance to the stairs is so large that it would not be difficult for Voldemort to kill him in a hurry.

Voldemort, who was extremely embarrassed by Grindelwald's sneak attack, also held back his anger, but he had to admit that he had indeed underestimated the old man. Grindelwald is indeed old, but he is as experienced as Dumbledore. Coupled with the powerful death stick, it can indeed threaten him, but if it is just that, it cannot kill Voldemort.

After the stairs at his feet were blown apart by a spell, Voldemort did not fall directly, but used a very weird magic to make himself levitate in the air.

After dealing with Albert for so long, Voldemort's way of thinking has also changed. This time he did not rush in directly from the stairwell, but opened another entrance on the wall next to him to prevent the other party from blocking the door.

However, Grindelwald had no intention of blocking Voldemort's door. The former Dark Lord was waving his wand and setting the top floor of Nurmengard on fire, letting the flames completely engulf the bad memories of those decades and destroy the life he once lived. Traces of the past turned into ashes.

So, when Voldemort forcibly broke through the wall, a raging stream of magic flames poured out directly from the gap, and the condensed firebird almost burned into Voldemort's face.

 In the final analysis, Voldemort underestimated his opponent because of Grindelwald's age, and his behavior was too radical. If he had been as cautious as he was in dealing with Albert, he wouldn't have been so embarrassed.

Grindelwald, on the other hand, knew exactly what he was going to do. After giving his arrogant junior a lesson, he directly launched his ultimate move.

Although there was no Elder Wand to provide him with continuous magic power, Grindelwald succeeded with the help of Felixir.

Terrible demonic flames poured out from the gap opened by the bombardment, spiraling around the top of Nurmengard Tower.

 Grindelwald never forgot the agreement he made with Albert, and planned to fulfill the agreement between both parties before he came to an end.

This tower was once built with his own hands, but now he plans to destroy it with his own hands.

At the gap, Grindelwald, who heard the footsteps, slowly turned to look at Voldemort who appeared in front of him. He saw his former figure in the other person.

Voldemort pointed his wand at Grindelwald's heart and said coldly: "You can't escape."

 “I never thought about running away.” Grindelwald said to Voldemort with a smile.

Voldemort believed this, and he didn't think that the old guy in front of him could do anything more. If it were the young Grindelwald, it would be difficult for both sides to kill each other, but in front of him is just an old man who has survived for a century. Guy.

Of course, Voldemort did not intend to give the other party any chance, just as he planned to thoroughly understand this annoying old man.

A wand was suddenly thrown in front of him, which immediately stopped Voldemort. He really couldn't figure out what the old guy in front of him wanted to do.

"I know you want this wand, it belongs to you." Grindelwald took a step back, spread his hands, and said meaningfully: "But you still can't defeat him, and you can't win! There are many things. ,You do not understand…"

 “Pretend to be a ghost!”

Before Voldemort's Avada Kedavra hit Grindelwald, the old man's figure had been engulfed by the surging demonic flames.
