From Karma Taj to Hogwarts

Chapter 245 The real legend of three brothers

In the principal's office at Hogwarts, a transparent cloak as smooth and smooth as fluid floated in the air, its corners hanging diagonally to one side, with no wrinkles visible. At the same time, no shadows were cast on the ground.

Two professors and two ghosts surrounded the legendary Deathly Hallows, observing it carefully.

"It doesn't feel like there's anything special about it. It's just like an ordinary invisibility cloak." The sparkling light in Ghost Xiwen's eyes gradually faded, and then he frowned and said. "If I hadn't known that this invisibility cloak blocked a powerful spell for Potter, I really couldn't believe that this was one of the miraculous Deathly Hallows that was circulated."

Although Dumbledore and Principal Dippet didn't speak, it could be seen from their eyes that they also recognized Xiwen's words.

"I think this is because the real function of the invisibility cloak can only be activated by the power of death." The Dark Knight said softly. Looking at the Deathly Hallows that had been passed down for more than a thousand years in front of him, even he, who had always remained calm, couldn't help but feel dazed.

"Relying on the power of Death?" Dumbledore looked away from the invisibility cloak, looked at the Dark Knight, and asked sharply. "Are you saying that the Invisibility Cloak was really an item that originally belonged to the God of Death, as told in "The Legend of the Three Brothers"?"

"What is "The Legend of Three Brothers"?" the Dark Knight asked stiffly.

Seeing this, Xiwen casually opened a small dimensional door, took out the "The Tales of Beedle the Poet" presented by Professor Kettleburn again, waved it and let it float in front of the Dark Knight, and was very considerate. My heart turned to the page of "The Legend of Three Brothers" for him.

The Dark Knight looked at the page in front of him and began to read the legend carefully.

Xiwen and the two professors did not interrupt his reading and began to think quietly. The principal's office suddenly fell into silence, leaving only the crackling sound of candles burning.

The Dark Knight read for a long time, until Xiwen couldn't help but look in his direction several times, and then the knight slowly spoke in a tangled tone: "I can't understand your contemporary writing..."

Xiwen: "..."

Professors: "..."

"I should have thought of it. After all, you lived earlier than Helena, and the language you used at that time should be considered Old English." Xiwen put his hand on his forehead and raised his hand to read "The Poet Pidgeot Story Collection" He fished it back and then read the legend to the Dark Knight.

The Dark Knight listened carefully, nodding from time to time.

"The details are quite different, but overall, the general direction is very close to the facts." After listening to "The Legend of Three Brothers", he slowly nodded his head wrapped in a helmet and said to Xiwen . "In order to fight against the threat of Death, the three Peverell brothers once disguised themselves as his followers and lurked around Death."

"Although the God of Death was unscrupulous and his actions were very sinful, he always abided by the contract. In order to reward the three brothers for their achievements under his command, he gave them his invisibility cloak."

"Later, Ignotus, the smartest of the three brothers, studied the use of the invisibility cloak and modified it; at the same time, Antioch and Cadmus also created a invention based on the ability of Death. The Elder Wand and the Resurrection Stone are two holy tools. This is the origin of the three Deathly Hallows."

"In the end, the three Peverell brothers relied on these three Deathly Hallows to defeat the God of Death. However, the God of Death can rely on the power of emotions to resurrect continuously, and the three brothers could not completely eliminate it. So they borrowed the function of the invisibility cloak to seal the space. He sealed the God of Death in a different space, and it was not until now, more than a thousand years later, that he finally saw the light of day again."

The Dark Knight put his hands on the hilt of the heavy sword standing on the ground, and told the true legend of the three brothers to the few people present in a cold tone.

At this time, Xiwen's eyes suddenly moved and he asked: "Your Excellency Knight, since the three brothers finally defeated the God of Death and sealed it, why in the story of "The Poet Bidou's Story Collection", their eldest brother and The second brother didn’t get a good ending?”

"Did their final ending in the legend happen? Or is it just the speculation of the bard Bidou?"

The Dark Knight was silent for a while, then said in a low mood: "Antioch and Cadmus did not get the good ending they deserve..."

"Under the circumstances at that time, although the God of Death was sealed, he had too many followers. Basically, every believer had more or less the power of the God of Death remaining in his body."

"Affected by these remaining powers, many people were spiritually bewitched, and the news that Antioch had an invincible and powerful magic wand was gradually spread by those believers. In the end, the hero was rescued by a wizard In the village inn, his throat was cut by a villain who coveted the Elder Wand."

"The second brother among the three brothers, Cadmus, was seriously injured after the battle. Before he could stabilize his mind, he was affected by the remaining power of the God of Death in his body. He accidentally summoned the Resurrection Stone with the resurrection stone in his hand. He lost the image of his deceased lover. In the end, he was so lovesick that he hanged himself on the balcony of his home."

"Only the youngest and smartest Ignotus used the invisibility cloak to avoid the detection of the remaining power of Death. He is the only one among the three brothers to die. However, he also stayed under the protection of the invisibility cloak for almost his entire life. Only then did the power left by the God of Death in the world completely dissipate."

"Finally, as the legend goes, Ignotus emerged from the cloak before dying and passed it on to his son."

When the Dark Knight told these stories, his tone was extremely complex, and his voice, as cold as metal friction, seemed to be mixed with a bit of sadness and respect.

After a long silence, Principal Dippet was the first to break the silence.

"Now is not the time to mourn for these heroes. The best tribute to them is that we can only deal with the common enemy of Death!"

"So, do we also need someone to pretend to be a believer of Death and lurk next to him, so as to leave a mark that borrows the power of Death, and then use the invisibility cloak to strengthen the seal?" The principal looked at the Dark Knight and asked softly.

"I don't think a cunning demon like Death would fall into the same pit a second time." Dumbledore suddenly said before the Dark Knight could reply. "The God of Death has been defeated once by the three Peverell brothers by pretending to be believers. I don't believe that he will not be prepared for this."

"Besides, more than a thousand years have passed, and he has more than a thousand years to improve the mark he left on his followers!"

"Indeed, it cannot be ruled out that the mark has been improved by Death." The Dark Knight nodded. "It is very likely that the God of Death will use new methods to eliminate the possibility of being betrayed by believers."

"But if this is the case, how can we really use the power of the invisibility cloak?" Principal Dippet thought in confusion.

"If we don't use the power of the Deathly Hallows and directly face the true form of Death, what are our chances of winning?" Dumbledore played with the wand in his hand and looked at the Dark Knight and asked.

"In my opinion, without using the Deathly Hallows, your chance of winning is zero." The Dark Knight said unceremoniously.

The office fell silent again.

At this moment, Xiwen's eyes suddenly moved.

He formed a seal with his hands and summoned a dark black magic circle on his face. The shape of the magic circle was like a demon's head.

At the same time, an extremely evil black mist-like energy slowly emerged from the magic circle. Under Xiwen's control, this energy tentatively made contact with the invisibility cloak.

"Strange, what are you doing?!" Principal Dippet felt the strong evil aura in this power and asked in surprise.

"This is the power of a dimensional demon. I can borrow it temporarily." Xiwen said calmly. "When I fought against the Dark Barrier of the God of Death, I used this power similar to that of the God of Death. Without this power, it would be impossible for me to use the magic that is unique to the God of Death."

Dumbledore had already reacted at this time and asked seriously: "Strange, do you want to try to use this power to inspire the hidden ability of the invisibility cloak?"

Xiwen nodded slightly.
