Chapter 265 Crossing Death!
The shadow of death is getting closer.
After Cyrus stepped out of time and returned to reality, he immediately found Halbo's Horcrux and destroyed it outside of time.
Only in this way will history remain unchanged and a new time and space will not be created.
The only problem now is death.
"The God of Death who has already obtained two souls cannot give up the third soul." Cassandra rarely appeared during this period. She was so busy that she almost flew into the sky, but the benefits were also significant. Her non-stop speeches attracted more The wizard learned of Cyrus' philosophy.
The wizarding world has steadily begun to understand Muggles.
In fact, the pace cannot be too fast, it must be done slowly like boiling a frog in warm water.
The law of confidentiality is like a scar. It cannot be opened violently, otherwise it will only expose the bloody wound. But slowly remove it, and all that will be exposed to the air is tender new skin.
You don't have to make everyone accept Muggles right away, you don't have to make them face Muggles right away, you just need to understand now.
He thought he was no longer valued by Dumbledore and felt like an abandoned animal.
Lockhart's superb writing style and Rita's superb publicity and momentum made the novel "Harry Potter" very popular for a time. All children are eager for the gorgeous magical world, hoping to be able to read it when they are ten years old. On my birthday, I received an owl letter from Hogwarts.
"But you can't stay with him all the time." Cassandra said, "otherwise those girls would be sad."
Because the God of Death exists in the world of the dead, it is a place that living people cannot reach at all. If you want to go there, you must die once. Cassandra thought about that story:
McGonagall temporarily gave him the principal's office.
He returned to Hogwarts.
The same goes for Muggles.
"Well, your method may be feasible." said the Sorting Hat. "To be honest, Gryffindor planned to try it before. But then he gave up. Because he knew that his power could not rival Death."
"Are you crazy?"
"I can stay sane for a long time and never let death take advantage of me," Sellers said.
So Cyrus sat in the chair, with Dumbledore's portrait and the ancient Sorting Hat in front of him.
This means that Cyrus and Harry are the next targets of Death.
His words stunned Cassandra. After the words passed through her beautiful brain, Cassandra realized what Cyrus said.
"There is such a thing?" Dumbledore in the portrait expressed surprise, "I have never heard you say that."
If the prophecy is followed, then both he and Harry meet the requirements for "immortal" souls. The God of Death only needs three souls to get rid of the restrictions placed on him by the world of death and come to reality.
And calm enough.
"Of course I don't have to. I know there is a road that leads to the world of death. But before that, I still need to make some preparations."
"Are you going to find Death? He is just waiting for you or Harry to take the bait!"
But now, he has already faced death.
"But Harry is different."
"I'm not a nostalgic person, no, Hat." said the Sorting Hat, "otherwise I wouldn't compose a new song every year. Besides, you don't talk to me much about it. Things in the wizarding world have already It’s enough for you to worry about.”
Hearing this question, Cyrus laughed mysteriously.
"It seems that the prophecy is about to come true again." Cassandra hid her sadness at the moment. She thought Cyrus's behavior was a bit too whimsical. How could a living person meet the God of Death?
So she could no longer maintain her elegance:
What about Harry?
"If Death wanted to get the last soul, he would definitely start with Harry." Sellers said.
He is extremely powerful, no one in this world can compare with him, and now he has obtained three Deathly Hallows. No matter how powerful the power of Death is, it will never be able to harm him without being able to visit the real world in person.
But the problem is that after all, he is only a fifteen or sixteen-year-old child.
"In the end, the third of the three brothers took off his invisibility cloak on his deathbed, and left the world with the God of Death as if greeting an old friend."
It seems that Cyrus's plan at this moment is exactly the same as that of the third child in the story.
Then, he paused for a while and said: "If the four founders combined their powers, there might be a chance, but by that time, Slytherin had already gone against him."
Looking for Death?
What is the difference between this and direct death?
Do not!
This is to die!
"You're right, He will come again," Cyrus said.
"Of course I won't," said Cyrus. "I won't wait for Death to come to my door. I should take the initiative to find Him and put an end to everything."
"Now, we can only take the initiative when His power is not yet complete."
"But how are you going to find the God of Death?" Cassandra finally asked, "You can't really die once, can you?"
They don't believe they are Muggles, but the moment they believe in magic, they cease to be Muggles.
Switching to the timeline in the original book, Harry is still angry with Dumbledore because Dumbledore has been unwilling to have a few words with him; he is still complaining about why he is not a prefect, and he is happy for Ron. , and very jealous.
In fact, Harry has grown a lot since Dumbledore died. This growth was not only reflected in his magical knowledge, but more importantly, his wisdom - he began to learn to think like Dumbledore instead of acting recklessly.
"It's not a prophecy, it's my own choice." Cyrus shook his head and said, "If Harry is taken away by Death, then Death, who has gained three souls, may not be something I can resist."
But even Dumbledore himself sometimes made mistakes. When he saw the Resurrection Stone, he couldn't help himself and fell into Voldemort's trap.
"Anyway, you'd better take their relics with you."
"But they are all destroyed," said Dumbledore, "unless you can go back in time and find relics that have not been destroyed."
"I don't think it's wrong." The Sorting Hat said, he looked at Cyrus seriously, "I think you can build those things by yourself now, right?"
"As long as I want." Cyrus smiled.
In other words, he no longer needs those inheritances.
Whatever he thinks about, he can get!
The power of those magic props can be realized with just a thought from him.
"In this case, there is no need to prepare." The Sorting Hat said, "But that is a place that even Gryffindor has never been to. No one knows what that world is like, and no one knows what you have to face. Enemy. You will probably never come back. "I know that very well," said Sellers.
His enemy is naturally the God of Death!
"When do you plan to set off?" Dumbledore asked in the portrait.
"I don't like grand farewell ceremonies. It's better to go alone." Sellers said.
He didn't want to make everything too sad. Even if everyone believed that he could return victoriously, there would still be necessary worries. So he still planned to set off secretly by himself, it was best not to let anyone notice.
"Although this sentence is a bit inappropriate to say," Dumbledore reminded, "but you have to be prepared to fail. It is best to think clearly about who can replace you and be the one to stop Death if you lose. "
This may sound cold and callous, but coming from Dumbledore's mouth, it's not that uncomfortable.
After all, he was the one who planned his own death in the original work.
"Of course, I'm not hotheaded," said Cyrus. "If I lose, Bella and Cassandra will inherit my career and won't let riots happen. Everyone who graduates from Ilvermorny Students will understand Muggles, and this trend will slowly sweep the world. As for the God of Death..."
"If even I lose,"
Cyrus paused when he said this. His tone was calm, but everyone could hear, or imagine, the despair.
If even he loses, who else can win?
If even he loses, there is no need to mention the future.
But Cyrus abruptly cut off this despair——
"If I lose, there's still Harry!" he said with a smile.
"Do you think Harry can win?" the Sorting Hat asked in surprise.
Not only him, but the portraits of other headmasters on the wall also expressed doubts about Harry's abilities.
"Come on, he can't even get 12 O's." Principal Black was the first to shake his head.
"I know what you want to say, and I also know that Harry is far from the best, but sometimes you have to admit that he can always burst out with unimaginable power in the most critical moments."
"Because he has a selfless and kind heart." Dumbledore said with a smile.
He was the only one who believed in Harry as much as Cyrus, but he was still confused about Cyrus's decision: "I thought you decided not to take the risk."
"I don't want to, but children always have to grow up." Cyrus said, "It was you before, and now it's me, but there won't always be someone at the front. If I lose too, then death and him will There is nothing left in the space.”
"He had no choice."
Of course, Harry had a choice, but both Cyrus and Dumbledore knew what he would choose. Just like Cyrus now chooses to face it alone, if there ever comes a day, Harry will shoulder all the responsibilities on his shoulders.
Finally, Sellers asked:
"Is there anything else you want to say, Dumbledore?"
"The only thing I can say is: the last enemy to be defeated is death." He said, "conquer it, not escape it."
"Of course, I think you will know, because I find that you always know a lot of things, and you know everything that I don't know." Dumbledore smiled.
At the same time, Fox said a final farewell to Cyrus.
Because of Cyrus, it still stayed at Hogwarts after Dumbledore's death, but now, it finally flew away.
"I have to go too."
Cyrus left.
night--
Department of Mysteries.
Cyrus walked on the ground that was dark enough to shine, and his shadow was reflected up and down, left and right, and his footsteps echoed in the lonely space, as if thousands of troops were walking together.
Fudge is old school.
The Ministry of Magic, which had been destroyed once, had no changes from the last time after it was rebuilt, except that in the Department of Mysteries, several ancient magics had disappeared.
He once again stood in the disk lit with blue flames. There were thirteen doors, and there was an innate magic hidden behind each door.
Cyrus watched the doors keep turning. He seemed to have some understanding in his heart, but he felt it was elusive.
He didn't have time to think too much, because there were clear but ethereal calls in his ears——
He immediately understood that this was the cry of death.
Whenever someone is about to die, a sound will be heard from the arches of the Death Hall. It is the cry of the dead and the call of death.
Cyrus took a deep breath. He raised his hand, and an exquisite crown was placed on his head. Slytherin's pendant hung on his chest, and Gryffindor's sword was pinned to his waist. ——He held the Elder Wand in his hand, wore the Resurrection Stone on his fingers, and put the invisibility cloak on his body.
He disappeared.
But the door to the Death Hall was opened.
Wisps of fine dust rose up from the ground. He stepped onto the stairs leading to death and stopped in front of the dilapidated archway shrouded in white curtains.
At this time, the call became stronger.
The curtain fluttered even without wind, brushing against Cyrus's cheek, like a pair of kind hands.
Obviously, death has been waiting for a long time!
The arch in the Department of Mysteries represents death, and no one who walks inside can come back. People always hear the voices of people who have passed away here. The imperfection is like the water plants in a deep lake. It looks swaying, but once it catches people, it will drag them into the abyss.
Cyrus was about to go through the door now.
"The magic of the invisibility cloak will keep the arch from hurting me," he thought.
This is a holy weapon that can avoid death. Wearing it on his body, all fatal attacks can be avoided, allowing him to walk in front of death safely.
At the same time, the Resurrection Stone is a guide for his return, if he still has a way back.
In the end, the Elder Wand will be his guard of honor as he fights death.
Even though it was just a branch broken by the God of Death at will, it should still be invincible!
As long as the magic power of the Elder Wand has not expired, Death will not be able to create a wand more powerful than it - because from the moment the legend begins, it is destined to be the most powerful, otherwise Death will violate his own promise.
Now, go and cross death!
