Ding, ding, ding...
Kayson leaned back in his chair, an apron over his lap. Both his hands were continuously rubbing a flower, quickly mashing it until only its magic-rich fibers remained.
He casually tossed the fibers into a small plate on his office desk, where a small pile of magic fibers had already accumulated.
Only then did he straighten up a bit, stretch, and pat the crystal ball on his office desk.
Dumbledore, uncharacteristically, didn't suddenly appear in his office using Ender Teleportation this time. Instead, he politely knocked on the door, acting very human-like.
Soon, he arrived on his ice skates.
Kayson looked at Dumbledore with a strange expression, "Tell me, is there something else you need my help with?"
Dumbledore shrugged, "Can't it be that I'm bored in the Castle and came to chat with you?"
"If you were truly here to chat, you would have used Apparition or a Phoenix to surprise me by now. Would you really knock on the door so politely?" Kayson pouted.
"Lupin and the House of Malfoy had a conflict on Privet Drive," Dumbledore said succinctly.
"...What kind of conflict could they have? And where is Privet Drive?" Kayson asked.
"Harry lives on Privet Drive. As for the conflict between Lupin and Malfoy, it seems to have started because Lupin was constantly staking out Privet Drive. Since Sirius escaped Azkaban, he was there to protect Harry."
"However, while protecting Harry, he provoked Greyback, that clumsy Werewolf. And behind that Werewolf stands Lucius Malfoy," Dumbledore explained.
"So what were Greyback and Lucius Malfoy doing on Privet Drive? And what kind of conflict are they having now? Are there any casualties?" Kayson asked with a frown.
"They're still negotiating, right at Harry's house. My informant on Privet Drive told me."
Kayson nodded, "So, no bloodshed has occurred yet?"
Dumbledore nodded.
"Then let's make sure no bloodshed happens," Kayson murmured, tossing a few spiderwebs towards the magic research table.
He wanted to make a Binding Talisman first. The Binding Talisman in Newborn Magic Art requires spiderwebs and Earth Essence, but Kayson didn't have that, or rather, it's uncertain if it even exists in this natural world.
However, he did find another item: Earth Element from the Mystic Era.
Soon, a Binding Talisman appeared in his spellbook. "Where is Privet Drive?"
Dumbledore gave Kayson a small compass.
"The direction it points is Privet Drive. As for the location, the most magical spot there is where they are currently confronting each other... Also, kill Greyback."
Kayson gave Dumbledore a strange look. In his eyes, at least in his eyes, Dumbledore was a benevolent Dumbledore, even a bit of a saint. He had never heard him call for anyone's death, but now, he was directly telling him to kill Greyback...
It was clear how much evil Greyback had committed.
"I will," Kayson nodded, then instantly used Ender Teleportation to leave the office. After casting an invisibility spell on himself, he flew towards Privet Drive according to the compass's instructions.
Privet Drive, at Harry's aunt's house...
"Perhaps we could talk outside... What do you say, Mr. Lucius?" Lupin held his wand, quietly on guard against the two.
Greyback wandered through the living room, picking up anything interesting he saw to taste. If he found it unpalatable or boring, he would simply throw it on the floor.
In the corner of the living room, the Dursley Family huddled, trembling, while Harry stood in another corner, subtly leaning towards Lupin's direction.
It wasn't that Lupin attracted him in any way, but simply that he repelled Lucius Malfoy.
As for Lupin, at this moment, he just wanted to coax the two out. Yes, coax them out of the Dursley Family's home. Currently, this small Muggle residence was unluckily packed with four Wizards.
One Little Wizards—Lupin didn't even consider Harry within the scope of combat power. In his eyes, this was an adult matter, and Harry absolutely could not be involved.
As for the other two, Lucius Malfoy and Greyback, the former was still somewhat rational, merely sitting on a fabric sofa, legs crossed, surveying everyone in the room with a mysterious smile.
Especially the Dursley Family in the corner; he seemed to revel in the fear that weaker individuals felt towards him.
Greyback, on the other hand, was completely a 'barefoot fears no shoes' type. If pushed, he would even bite Lucius, his so-called 'master.' He was a complete mad dog.
Having these two in the room was not good for anyone, including the Dursley Family and Harry.
And for Lupin, he was also hesitant. If this were outside the room, he would have instantly cast some genuine Dark Arts shockwaves at the two Dark Wizards in front of him.
But now... he didn't have the guts.
"Mr. Potter, would you please come here?" Lucius, sitting on the fabric sofa, said softly.
"No! Don't go, Harry! Lucius, whatever you have, direct it at me, not an innocent child!" Lupin roared.
"No, no, no..." Lucius shook his head. "Our Mr. Potter is not innocent at all. He used some unknown means to make my property, my House-elf, unconsciously help him, even developing a hint of betrayal towards me." Lucius shook his head, his gaze still fixed on Harry.
Lupin swiftly stepped in front of Harry.
Lucius frowned at this. "Greyback."
Greyback walked over, licking his lips. Speaking of which, he, like Lucius, thoroughly enjoyed the fear that came from the weak.
Unlike Lupin's apprehension—Lupin feared he would harm others—Greyback didn't like that kind of fear. He preferred another kind.
For example, the Dursley Family in the corner, that pure fear of being harmed themselves.
So when Lupin was in front of him, it made him feel a bit dull, but he still licked his lips, trying to look as perverse as possible.
"Lupin, remember? I bit you when you were little!" Greyback said softly.
Just then, a hum suddenly echoed in the room.
A red binding magic quickly fell upon Greyback, rendering him completely immobile.
