Chapter 604: Chapter 604: Andy's Big Picture
"Yes, that's why I didn't refute your point!"
Grindelwald recounted, "I have met three Obscurial in total... or rather, two Obscurial and one Obscurus forcefully stripped from its host."
"Ariana and Credence are both very kind people, as for the other Obscurial. According to Scamander, she should be a young girl from the Sudan, a very sweet child."
"Love! Dumbledore spent a lot of time trying to understand it."
"Perhaps it really is the key to the fusion of mind and magic!"
Unlike Voldemort, who didn't understand love at all, Grindelwald understood it. He was used to taking advantage of other people's love, and he had also been deeply in love once when he was young.
However, during that time, Grindelwald had already been deeply swayed by dark magic. His personality became increasingly irritable, and he became more and more eager for quick success.
During these years of imprisonment, Grindelwald's mental state has improved considerably.
"Okay, I understand," Andy nodded slightly.
Not everyone is affected by dark magic, especially if they have a strong will.
"Do you feel anything else?" Grindelwald asked.
"Well..."
Andy pondered for a moment and said, "To be honest, I feel great. There is no sign of the magic going against my will, no loss of vitality... and the power of the magic has increased a lot."
"I can only think of three possibilities."
"First, I just haven't discovered the hidden dangers within myself. Second, the magic transfiguration transformed my body to better accommodate the Obscurus. Third, my fusion is perfect... I mean, it's perfect in the mental sense."
"During the fusion, I didn't use any negative emotions."
"So..."
After a pause, Andy frowned and continued, "I haven't discovered any hidden dangers in my body, but this is still about my own safety, so I can't be negligent in the slightest."
That was the main reason why Andy contacted Grindelwald.
After all, he had seen an Obscurial with his own eyes.
In addition, Andy also wanted to ask Dumbledore for advice.
The old headmaster has always believed that love is the most powerful magical force, and he has studied love all his life. He is a true expert in this area.
Grindelwald listened quietly, and when Andy finished, he suddenly asked, "How did you manage to merge them?"
Andy raised an eyebrow and explained, "I don't know if you've heard, but I fought with the current Dark Lord. The newspapers are making a fuss about me being Dumbledore's designated successor, the greatest wizard of the next century, and some people are even saying I'm the hope of the wizarding world."
Andy had no intention of hiding the details of his own process of becoming an 'Obscurial'.
Of course, Andy wouldn't tell just anyone.
First, the other person has to be worthy to have a conversation with. Right?
As for whether Grindelwald would secretly merge his mind and magic, Andy was even less worried.
So what if he did?
If it failed, he would die!
If it succeeded, Andy would have one more like-minded friend, and they could study magic together in the future.
Even if they weren't friends, having one more rival would be good.
This is the big picture!
Besides, Andy still has a cheat!
So what's there to be afraid of?
"Dumbledore mentioned it once," said Grindelwald indifferently.
Andy raised his eyebrows slightly but didn't care about it.
"I am the hope of the wizarding world, and the Dark Lord is once again causing havoc in the wizarding world..."
Andy spread his hands, sighed with a slightly helpless expression, and said, "Shouldering such a heavy burden of honour, I still cannot stand up against the Dark Lord."
"Because I'm no match for him!"
"If I attack him, he'll kill my family!"
Andy paused for a moment, then continued, "When I think about the murderous scenes caused by the Dark Lord, the heavy burden of honour, the expectations of everyone, and the justice in my heart... all of this causes my magic to bubble up."
"But to protect my family, I have to suppress it back inside me."
Grindelwald: "..."
Andy's method may sound unreliable, but with his powerful mental talent, he was able to forcefully deceive his magic and complete one magical flare-up after another.
Without strong mental strength, this would be impossible!
As for the others, they couldn't even imagine it, let alone act it out, unless they experienced it themselves.
"I never thought you would even fool Dumbledore," Grindelwald said with some admiration.
Dumbledore believed that Andy was willing to protect Harry at the Ministry of Magic because he wanted to see him fight Voldemort.
As for Andy's final intervention, he was probably just curious to see how powerful he had become.
However, Andy's goal was just to make the reason for the deception more convincing and realistic... that was all!
Was Andy really being deceitful?
Those events had really happened.
If there was one false part, it might be Andy's own emotions.
But emotions... those could be disguised with mind magic!
Grindelwald concluded quietly.
The birth of the Obscurus:
Caused by harm received as a result of magic.
The internal hatred felt towards one's own magic.
The conscious suppression of one's magic when suffering harm from the outside.
Andy's process of fusion:
Caused by the honour brought about by magic.
He loves his magic.
When Voldemort harms the wizarding world, he consciously suppresses his magic.
Very similar but completely opposite processes.
If Andy's fusion is without problems, then the most likely reason is probably related to the mental aspect and the magic transfiguration.
After a moment's thought, Grindelwald gave his answer: "After your magic has completely stabilised, if you still don't feel any ill effects, then... your fusion is perfect!"
"That simple?" Andy frowned.
Grindelwald said lightly, "On a mental level, your Obscurus... let's call it Obscurus for now! Your Obscurus is problem-free."
"At least it won't harm its host!"
Andy nodded slightly on hearing this.
Andy agreed with this point.
"Then the rest is just survival instinct!"
Grindelwald continued, "In this regard, Scamander is still reliable. He believes that Obscurus are parasitic beings. Since they are parasites...then the parasite and host are in a symbiotic relationship."
"Instinctively, it will not leave its host!"
Andy continued to nod.
In that perspective, there is some truth to it.
But then Andy thought of something else.
But before Andy could ask, he heard Grindelwald continue, "Parasites...they live inside their hosts, and to survive, they may absorb a little...of their host's nutrients."
Andy nodded repeatedly as he listened.
This was exactly what Andy had thought before.
"Does the host die first, and then Obscurus departs from the host? Or does Obscurus depart, which causes the host to die?" Andy asked with a frown.
