Abernathy waved to Auston Greengrass in boredom, and Auston instantly understood what Abernathy meant. Just as Auston reached for his wand, the girl who had been standing beside him suddenly said, "This pendant is a relic of my mother. After my mother passed away, my father has been wearing it with him."
Hearing the girl's words, the three people at the scene were stunned at the same time, and Xenophilius Lovegood also stopped his chattering. After a moment of silence, he said: "Yes, that's right. Even this story was told to me by my late wife."
Hearing this, Abernathy couldn't help but ask curiously:
"Excuse me, what is your wife's name?"
Although he was somewhat puzzled as to why Abernathy asked this, and even at this moment, Xenophilius Lovegood looked at Abernathy with a hint of suspicion, he still answered:
"Pandora. Pandora Lovegood."
Abernethy ignored Xenophilius Lovegood's intention of deliberately adding his wife's surname to hers. At this time, Abernethy was recalling the name Pandora and seemed to be lost in thought.
"Do you know my mother?"
At this time, Luna on the side suddenly asked.
Hearing Luna's question, Abernathy nodded slowly, stroked Luna's golden hair and said, "Of course. When I met your mother, she was not much older than you, but she was already a very good witch. I remember that she always liked to pester me and ask questions about various spells. She was a very smart witch."
Hearing Abernathy's answer, Xenophilius Lovegood showed a hint of surprise and joy, and quickly welcomed Abernathy and Austin into the room. This time, Abernathy did not hold his hand and not let go.
After the four entered the house, Xenophilius first asked Abernethy and the other man to sit down, then went into the inner room. After a while, he brought out a pot of tea. Xenophilius was about to introduce it, but Abernethy suddenly said, "Gordigan tea. Pandora liked this tea the most back then."
Hearing this, Xenophilius no longer had any doubts about the two people in front of him, and said with a smile:
"Yes, it is Gordigan tea, and now it is also our Luna's favorite tea."
Then, Xenophilius poured a cup for everyone. Abernethy picked up the cup in front of him, took a sip, and was silent for a moment. Suddenly, he asked Luna beside him: "Did your mother tell you about this pendant? And what is the story behind this pendant?"
Hearing Abernathy's question, Luna was stunned at first, then shook her head and replied:
"No, in fact, my mother died due to a serious accident caused by a spell. Before that, although I often saw her holding the pendant in a daze when she was alone, she never told me the story of the pendant."
Hearing this, Abernathy couldn't help but sigh inwardly. Cases like Luna's mother were common in the Witch Party.
Perhaps because they were disheartened, or perhaps because they never received a call from the Witch Party again, many people chose to hide. Many others had already started families, and for the safety of their descendants, they hid their past and their former glory.
But now, the Grindelwald family name will shine again in the wizarding world, and it is time to evoke their former pride! Thinking of this, Abernathy straightened his back, looked at the Lovegood father and daughter in front of him, and said slowly in a proud tone:
Hearing Abernathy's words, Xenophilius Lovegood subconsciously held his breath, then looked at Luna, only to see that Luna had a blank expression on her face and asked calmly, "Father, what is the Witch Party?"
Before Xenophilius Lovegood could answer, Abernathy asked in disbelief, "Have you never heard of this name?"
In response to Abernathy's doubts, Xenophilius Lovegood quickly explained:
"In fact, I consciously didn't tell Luna about the wizarding world. I think that children should have things that interest them. After all, every wizard will grow up, but there is no potion that can make wizards return to their childhood."
After listening to Xenophilius Lovegood's explanation, Abernathy couldn't help but nod.
Afterwards, Abernathy explained to Luna the origin of the Witch Party, and said at the end: "Luna, your mother was once a member of our party. Not only your mother, but also your grandfather! Although you have not joined the Witch Party yet, and perhaps you will not join it in the future, you are born a child of the Witch Party!"
Having said that, Abernathy suddenly took out a new pendant from his arms. The shape of the pendant was almost the same as the one worn by Xenophilius Lovegood, but it looked more exquisite.
Then, Abernathy handed the pendant to Luna and said:
"I will give you this pendant. In the future, if you encounter any troubles that you cannot solve, you can come to me with this pendant, or find a wizard who also has this pendant. I think they will lend a hand."
Luna looked at the pendant in her hand curiously, with a hint of fondness in her eyes, and asked casually:
"What kind of people are the wizards of the Witch Party?"
Abernathy was stunned for a moment, then smiled lovingly and said, "Most of the wizarding party in the past are old men like me. As for what the wizarding party of the future will look like, when you arrive at Hogwarts and meet the wizard who also wears this symbol, his appearance will be what the wizarding party will look like in the future."
Luna seemed to understand something, her eyes still on the pendant in her hand, but she nodded slowly.
Xenophilius Lovegood on the side kept wanting to speak but never got a word in. As the editor-in-chief of The Quibbler, Xenophilius Lovegood naturally knew what kind of people the wizards of the Witch Party were, and didn't want Luna to have much contact with them, even though his wife had once been a member of the Witch Party.
At this time, Xenophilius Lovegood saw Abernathy finished speaking, so he quickly said: "I wonder why you two are here today?"
After hearing Xenophilius Lovegood's question, Abernathy withdrew his gaze from Luna and took out a photo from his pocket.
"It's simple. I want you to blow him up on The Quibbler!"
