Hogwarts: Why do you call me the Demon King?

After his maniacal laughter subsided, Isaac immediately began calling for help.

Although standing in the center of the fire shield will not result in being engulfed by the flames, the burning remains of the villa will not be blocked by the fire shield.

Perhaps Grindelwald's original Fire Shield could provide proper protection.

But Isaac's is just a youthful version of Fire Shield, and even the spell is different from Grindelwald's.

Just as Grindelwald said, he hadn't even unlocked the prerequisite learning conditions for Fire Shield.

It's already quite good that you can learn a youth version.

This thing looks impressive, but it's basically useless against elite wizards.

Because others can use counter-spells, or even stop spells.

As soon as Isaac finished speaking, Dumbledore appeared beside him in a flash.

Dumbledore extended his wand, but he didn't seem to wave it much.

"Finite (End)"

The raging flames vanished as if wiped away, revealing a dilapidated villa and a dying black wizard.

While Isaac's Fire Shield (Youth Edition) can certainly be broken with a spell, this dark wizard clearly cannot cast spells without a staff.

Since one cannot cast spells without a staff, one must be burned.

Good news: St. Mungo's Hospital for Magical Injuries has a well-established treatment plan for wizards burned by "ordinary flames".

He didn't even need to be hospitalized; he could recover with just some on-site treatment.

The bad news: Even if he was cured, it didn't mean he was still free. He attacked a young wizard in front of Dumbledore.

They even used the Unforgivable Curse... Azkaban is about to welcome another Hogwarts graduate.

You're throwing a party without me? Fine, I'll do it myself!

After the flames had completely died down, Dumbledore waved his wand once more over the ruins of the villa.

The entire villa was restored as if time had reversed, with everything that had been burned by flames, damaged by curses, or even smashed by black wizards being repaired.

Within seconds, the entire villa was restored to its pre-battle state, inside and out.

"Reparo," Isaac uttered the spell Dumbledore used.

The same spell can have drastically different effects depending on who uses it.

For example, Isaac would not be able to perform such a large-scale, detailed restoration.

This is purely due to skill level.

Seeing that Dumbledore had repaired the villa, Isaac breathed a sigh of relief, since Grindelwald had lent it to him for temporary stays.

He can't let people live there and ruin it.

After cleaning up the mess, Dumbledore cast a binding spell on the dark wizard on the ground and then put down his wand.

The healing spell just now did not repair the dark wizard's wand.

This dark wizard will no longer need a wand.

Dumbledore stared blankly at Isaac, who knew that Dumbledore wasn't really looking at him.

He knew that Dumbledore was seeing another person through his shadow.

What's this all about? Using my Magpie Bridge as a time-traveling post office?

“Isaac, that spell just now…” Dumbledore’s voice was hoarse, a trait he himself hadn’t even noticed.

There's no way around it, it was just too similar, except for the color of the flames.

Isaac's physique and magic are so similar to Grindelwald's!

Chapter 23 Young Dumbledore

Dumbledore, watching from the sidelines, clearly saw that Isaac had maintained control of the entire duel.

For an ordinary wizard to deal with a prophet who can "read the script" at any time, the spell of knocking him unconscious is ineffective.

As long as the prophet is on guard, not to mention the Cruciatus Curse, even the Killing Curse will be useless if it misses.

There is only one way for the dark wizard to defeat Isaac.

Cast a wide-area attack spell and use its AOE to kill Isaac.

However, this approach contradicted the black wizard's original intention in coming to the door.

When the dark wizard met Isaac, the first spell he cast was to knock him unconscious.

This means that his primary objective in coming here was not to harm Isaac.

He wanted to subdue Isaac.

He fell unconscious and was easily dodged by Isaac, and the subsequent three consecutive Cruciatus Curses all missed.

There was also half a Killing Curse to follow—this dark wizard's mind had indeed been damaged by dark magic; a normal wizard should have realized that something was wrong.

Either leave, or change your attack method.

But he was incredibly stubborn and changed the Cruciatus Curse to the Killing Curse.

If you can't hit anyone, forget about the Killing Curse, even casting Avada Kedavra won't do any good.

Finally, there's Isaac's spell, the Fire Shield.

Apart from the color and power, the Valdor gas stove is exactly the same as the Grindelwald gas stove.

Isaac's spellcasting gestures, plus his Grindelwald triad...

For a moment, Dumbledore almost mistook the young Grindelwald for someone fighting.

A fire shield protects you; that's Grindelwald's spell, and also the signature skill of magic masters like them.

If Grindelwald hadn't personally taught him, Isaac, with his current knowledge, would absolutely not have been able to learn this spell on his own.

Even if it's just a youthful version that combines fire spells and polymorph.

So this curse is Grindelwald's "greeting" to him.

Who will love you now, Dumbledore?

There's no time to mourn Dumbledore's lost love. Next to Apparate towards us are the Auror trio from the British Ministry of Magic's Auror Office!

The three Aurors Apparated into Isaac's yard, and as soon as they "landed," they saw Dumbledore and Isaac standing in the hall.

The three were startled and quickly ran towards them.

“Professor Dumbledore, we have received a warning that someone here is using the Unforgivable Curse.”

What exactly happened?

Dumbledore turned his head and saw that they were all familiar faces.

"Gardvin, Kingsley, and John? Long time no see, how have you been?"

The visitors were Gadwin Robards, Kingsley Shackle, and John Dexter from the Auror's office.

Gadwin was the Auror's Chief of Staff and Rufus Scrimgeour's right-hand man.

He was considered the second most important person in the Auror office.

If it weren't for the detection of wizards using the Unforgivable Curse in Muggle areas, this investigation team wouldn't have been on such a high level.

“Uh…it’s alright, Professor.”

So what exactly happened? The three Aurors entered Isaac's house and found a wizard lying in the hall, his fate unknown.

Isaac, Dumbledore, and a dark wizard—this combination of three generations, combined with the unleashing of the Unforgivable Curse...

Forgive them for their limited experience as Aurors, but they hadn't seen this scene since Voldemort's "death."

"Here's what happened... I received a letter in my office today from Mr. Isaac Waldore, saying that a wizard is targeting him."

So I rushed to his house.

But I was still too late. By the time I arrived, Isaac had already subdued the dark wizard.

Gadwin realized that the truth probably lay in the hands of this boy, so he asked in a gentle tone:

"Valdorei... Oh, do you mind if I call you Isaac, child?"

Can you tell me what exactly happened?

How did you subdue this criminal?

Isaac was surprised to learn that Dumbledore had cut out parts of the truth.

According to Dumbledore, Isaac's adventures evolved directly from those under Dumbledore's supervision into a fledgling hero wielding his sword against evil.

Although Isaac didn't understand Dumbledore's reasoning, he knew Dumbledore must have had his reasons.

Compared to these three Aurors, they were the ones in cahoots.

"It all started in Diagon Alley..." Isaac began by recounting how he noticed someone following him in Diagon Alley.

From discovering that someone was following him, to borrowing an owl from the owner of the owl shop to deliver a message to Dumbledore.
