After the two of them climbed back out of the Ender Chest, Markus very consciously left on his own.
anwhile, Kasenhis picked up the enormous Ender Chest and flew toward the giant tribe on the other side of the mountain.
Very quickly, as he slowly descended, the giants noticed him as well. Their walnut-sized brains took a mont to command their limbs before they charged over to smash Kasenhis, only to get knocked unconscious by a massive slap and tossed into the small world inside the Ender Chest.
After two hours of busy work, he finally managed to stuff every giant inside. Next, all he needed to do was destroy the Ender Chest. Once Voldemort was completely finished for good, he could simply recreate the Ender Chest and release the giants again.
After everything was settled, Kasenhis used Ender teleportation to return to Hogwarts.
Honestly speaking, he really was curious about why Grindelwald had shown sothing... resembling guilt toward Harry's aunt's family.
After all, who was Grindelwald? Kasenhis, who was extrely familiar with the hidden history of the magical world, understood that better than anyone. Otherwise, he would never have joked that Dumbledore and Grindelwald had swapped souls.
There was sothing wrong with this whole thing from top to bottom.
By the ti he unconsciously wandered to the Defense Against the Dark Arts office, he finally ca back to his senses and raised his hand to knock on the door.
Very quickly, Grindelwald opened the door and welcod him inside.
It was obvious that he had not shaved for two or three days. His originally well-trimd beard had grown sowhat longer and slightly curled, while scattered, unaesthetic stubble had appeared elsewhere on his face as well.
"I heard from Dumbledore that you've been sitting in here reflecting on your mistakes," Kasenhis said with a face full of disbelief.
"My so-called mistake was not because of those Muggles, but because of my misjudgnt of the situation and the future. After all, I possess the identity of a Seer. I could have taken a look ahead of ti," Grindelwald sighed helplessly as he sat in his chair.
"Yeah, yeah, I get it. I just ca here because I was curious whether you really swapped souls with Dumbledore." Kasenhis nodded and let out a breath.
"Dumbledore and I swapped souls? Hmm, if you only knew that I locked myself away because of a few Muggles and didn't know my true thoughts, then perhaps you really would think that. But what exactly did Dumbledore do that made you think he was acting like ?" Grindelwald looked at Kasenhis curiously.
"He wanted to find the giant tribe and commit a little genocide on them. Sounds like sothing you'd do," Kasenhis said as he sat on the sofa.
"In fact, no. No matter how much I dislike a race, I still acknowledge the necessity of its existence. Even if I truly intended to slaughter them, I would still preserve so sparks of life. Compared to that, I can only say that his thods are... far cruder." Grindelwald spoke with a face full of disdain, clearly looking down on Dumbledore's approach.
Kasenhis raised an eyebrow. Just as he was about to say sothing else, the office door was suddenly knocked on.
After Grindelwald walked over and opened the door, he discovered it was Snape.
"Oh... is there a problem, Professor Snape?"
"Is Kasenhis here?" Snape asked.
"Very obviously," Grindelwald nodded.
"Then both of you, please co with to see Dumbledore. Kasenhis, take us to the Headmaster's office," Snape said in a quick but steady tone.
"No problem." Kasenhis could tell that Snape's expression looked extrely unnatural, so he imdiately stood up as well. After wrapping the group in an Ender force field, they arrived at the Headmaster's office.
"Dumbledore, he's already revived," Snape said the mont he saw Dumbledore.
"Hmm... it's only been two days, hasn't it? He revived that quickly?" Dumbledore raised an eyebrow.
"Apparently so. One day to gather materials, one day to perform the resurrection ritual," Grindelwald said casually as he sat on the sofa.
"Then now, Severus, what is it?" Dumbledore continued asking.
"He's summoning ." Snape kept it brief.
Dumbledore nodded. "We'll protect him."
Kasenhis's brain froze for several seconds before he finally reacted. "I rember giving you a pendant, right? The Ender teleportation one."
"That thing may not necessarily be needed. Maybe this ti I'll... get through it without danger." Snape forced out a faint, ugly smile.
Very quickly, Snape transford into black smoke and left, while Kasenhis, Dumbledore, and Grindelwald remained inside the office.
"The reason Tom has managed to survive ti and ti again... Horcruxes... Horcruxes..." Dumbledore leaned back in his chair, staring at the silver ornant on the desk emitting steam as he muttered to himself.
"Gellert, can you see how many Horcruxes he has, and where they are located?" Dumbledore suddenly asked.
"Voldemort's influence on the world is minimal, and from the looks of it, I also never directly participated in the destruction of his Horcruxes in the future... so I can't see it." Grindelwald shook his head helplessly.
"I thought Seers were like Professor Trelawney's Inner Eye, able to see... more important things?" Kasenhis said.
"It is precisely because Voldemort isn't important enough. If he were also capable of pulling off sothing insane like reducing the global population by the hundreds of millions, then I'd very easily be able to see futures related to him." Grindelwald refuted him while simultaneously taking a jab at Kasenhis.
The latter rolled his eyes helplessly. "My bad, my bad. I shouldn't have gotten carried away and done crazy stuff on impulse, alright?"
"I've never thought that what you did was wrong," Grindelwald replied succinctly.
"How about we return to serious matters, gentlen?" Dumbledore interjected.
"OK."
"Mhm... but what serious matters do we even have to discuss? Right now, Severus is the only one actually doing serious work, while the three of us are just sitting here chatting nonsense," Kasenhis said dryly.
"Then now, Kasenhis... go replenish the Iron Golems around Hogwarts," Dumbledore said quietly.
"Mhm." Kasenhis nodded.
"Oh, and while you're at it, bring Harry here as well. We need to ask him whether he's had any dreams recently, or seen any valuable visions," Dumbledore continued.
"Alright... why do I feel like I have absolutely no presence here..."
