Chapter 86: Dumbledore finds the truth about Jack
That is how he is. Jack went to take a soak in the hot water pool on the side to wash off his body's fatigue from the ritual. He is physically energetic but mentally exhausted. So he slept in the hot water for a while before waking up and getting ready for the classes for the day.
But before that he has one important thing to do. That is he has to show this golden paper to Dumbledore. He wants to use every possible benefit he could get. Also he wanted to see the reaction of Dumbledore.
As long as Dumbledore knows about Jack, Jack was sure that he would be added to the protection list on the same level of Harry, may be a little low as there is no deep bond or thought over the years.
At least that much can be expected. So Jack went straight towards the head master's office. The password is known by communicating with the portraits on the side. Jack came to the head master's office.
As soon as he appeared here, the phoenix flew toward Jack and started to show its intimateness towards Jack. Jack took out some snacks that he prepared from his expansion pocket and feed it while waiting for Dumbledore.
When Dumbledore came out from inside he was dumbfounded again by how close his pet became to Jack. Naturally phoenix are said to see the true nature of a person. They would not be close to just anyone.
......
Jack came here to show his inheritor identity to Dumbledore because of one main reason that is to get the assets of Dumbledore and Gellert Grindelwald. These things are valuable and all of them fell into the hands of Harry later.
Jack cannot let the wealth fall into the hands of that stupid Harry. Also there are things that Jack can use for improving his magic power in the future. If he is going to have a huge harem then he should have enough wealth to maintain them all.
May be one day he would have an entire class of students at Hogwarts with his children in the future. Well it is not an exaggeration as he really wanted to do something crazy like that. While he was thinking Dumbledore also came over with a dazed face.
"Jack is there something wrong. You came so early to me to talk." Jack did not say much and handed over the golden paper to Dumbledore. Dumbledore did not think much and thought that Jack as some doubt in ancient runes or something in this golden paper.
Well it was strange golden paper and he did not have many thoughts about that. But when he looked at the contents of the paper his eyes have widened. They widened so much that Jack thought that they would knock his half moon glasses from his face.
Jack did not say much, he waited for Dumbledore to calm down and digest the information. During this time Jack is not idle as he started to play with the phoenix. Dumbledore looked like an old tree that was struck by lightning for a while.
He looked at the golden paper for a while and finally looked at Jack. The message that appears on the golden paper is different for different people. Usually it would only list out the names of people for Jack to who this can be showed to.
The first name is Dumbledore. So Jack gave it to Dumbledore to let him see the information on it. As long as Dumbledore held the golden paper, he got the information of Jack's origins and some mocking words from Gellert Grindelwald.
Dumbledore read through the information many time and he was clear that it was all caused by Gellert Grindelwald. This means Jack is related to him. In a way he can say that Jack is his great grandson and after the awakening process Jack can also be called his son.
It was strange to speak about this matter. But he cannot deny this matter as it is as clear as day for him base on the information. His dazed state lasted for a while. At that time Dumbledore thought.
"It is no wonder that he acted like this during this time. He got the habits of Gellert when dealing with people. He seems to have gotten the potential to become close to magical creatures from newt Scamander. It is strange for such a person to exist."
Dumbledore sighed and looked at Jack with a loss of words on what to speak. Jack took the opportunity to speak breaking the silence.
"I know that you could not speak about this matter. I also only found out about this last night. I tried the inheritance ritual in the room of requirements last night. The result is that I found out about my origins.
Now that I know, I don't know how to talk about it either. I can call you grandfather. But suddenly calling can cause some problems. So I presume that being the same as before is the best way of doing things.
You can think about this slowly and tell me what you think. I enquired that Gellert Grindelwald is still alive. If possible I want to meet him once formally. I have something to say to him. After all he is the reason for my existence in a way. Can you take me to him if you can?"
Jack said all of this without any interruption while feeding the phoenix with his back to Dumbledore the entire time. It is like Jack is an experienced old man speaking to his subordinate. Dumbledore sighed.
"Okay after the current situation about the chamber of secrets is solved I will take you there."
Jack smiled and did not say much before leaving normally.
"Good bye professor Dumbledore. I would not disturb you anymore." Jack said with an amiable smile and left here to the great hall to eat breakfast.
