Harry Potter’s Book of Sin

Chapter 2647: "grim Reaper"

() "Miss Granger, how much do you know about Gellert Greenwald?"

When the old butler said these words, his expression was a little hazy.

After all, considering his age, this old man was obviously a witness to that big event that year. For him, many years that may have been very bad have now melted into memorable memories.

At that time, the old butler was probably in his youth. Apart from some bad things, there must have been many good things that happened, right?

"Greenwald?" Hermione continued after a pause, "If it's just the things recorded in writing, I can basically remember all of them... But I think Mr. Steward must be talking about more than that. ?”

"Um…"

The old butler had also come to his senses at this time, but he quickly shook his head when he heard her say that.

"In fact, most of the books written on the history of modern magic mention some of it. After all, it's no secret in the wizarding world—you know, Gellert Greenwald's comment on the Deathly Hallows Qiqi has always been obsessed with it, and even took the Deathly Hallows logo as a symbol to represent itself, making it known to the whole world."

"Ah!" Hermione nodded immediately when she heard the words, "I do know something about the Deathly Hallows. Not only the ones written in the book, but we have actually had close contact with the three very miraculous ones. Magic Objects..."

"Really?" The old butler nodded slightly, and continued, "Then, Miss Granger must have already known a lot about the stories about the origin of the Deathly Hallows, right?"

"Uh...Mr. Steward means, 'The Tale of the Three Brothers'?" Hermione said, "I've read about it in "The Tales of Beedle the Bard". But aren't all the stories in that collection just made up?" A fable for children? Is that all true?"

"Maybe?"

The old butler's tone became a little heavy.

But Hermione couldn't help shaking her head.

"How could it be true?" She frowned. "The story even mentions the **** of death, but is there really a **** in this world? I think wizards are less convinced than ordinary people." There is a god, isn't there?"

"Of course, of course..." The old butler nodded, "Of course there is no such thing as a 'god' in this world, at least there has never been any evidence to prove it. But stories are stories after all, and legends are just legends after all...Miss Granger, You also said just now that the story you read is just a bedtime story that parents in the magical world read to their children before going to bed. Of course, many of the details are not true...the so-called' 'Reaper' is obviously just a skin that writers put on for a character who might have existed in the story, to help children understand it."

Having said that, the old butler raised his right hand to cover his forehead and rubbed it lightly a few times, and added with a sigh:

"'That person' probably really existed...at least according to some records that Mr. Patriarch found in the collection of my Blois family, the reason why this story has been passed down to this day in the form of a story is because it A long, long time ago, it seems that it really happened!"

After saying this, the old butler stopped for a while and became a little silent.

And not far away, Hermione also fell silent. She obviously thought of something soon, but her face became more and more serious.

Finally, it was she who couldn't bear it first and said:

"Mr. Steward, could it be that you want to say...that 'Witch Kern' is the 'Death God' in the story who made the three Deathly Hallows?"

When the old housekeeper heard this, his expression became more serious.

"According to the ancient books in the family, a female wizard with amazing talent was born in a certain era in the past. This witch has shown extremely high wisdom and ability to comprehend magic since she was a child... Maybe it is because of her The 'genius' of her is different from ordinary people! As she grows up, many of her ideas and concepts have become different from others, so that she has done many things that are not tolerated by others. In the end, She was dubbed the "Goddess of Death" by other wizards of that era, and most people were afraid of her existence. The taboo 'rule of death'... and the witch's name, if converted to the current pronunciation, would be pronounced 'Kern'."

Having said that, the old housekeeper paused slightly, looked at Hermione and said, "How about it, do you suddenly feel that if she is the 'Grim Reaper' in that story...then this nickname really couldn't be more appropriate?"

However, Hermione couldn't help shaking her head slightly when she heard it.

"After hearing Mr. Steward's words, I feel that it doesn't seem to matter whether she is the 'Death' in the story or not."

When she hadn't been exposed to rule magic, Hermione might still be lucky about it, thinking that if she was more careful, then more or less, there was probably a chance of winning—after all, nothing in this world is absolute, isn't it?

However, after really contacting and mastering a certain level of power of rules...the rules of death? That's a third-level rule! A wizard who started to study the third-level rules a long, long time ago, even if she still hasn't improved at all, it is no longer an existence they can face.

What's more, is that possible?

Just when Hermione was overwhelmed by the pressure~lightnovelpub.net~ the old housekeeper continued:

"The ancient document also mentioned that the 'goddess of death' seemed to want to do something through the study of the rules of death, and in the incomplete chapters appeared words such as 'breaking the shackles of life and death' and 'changing the world'. Sentence. Greenwald must have found similar records back then, and that’s why he came up with the idea of ​​collecting Deathly Hallows and using it to make trouble.”

"That is to say, does he think the Deathly Hallows is very important...?" Hermione was taken aback. "Could it be that the power that can be exerted by things such as the Elder Wand is stronger than what we know?"

"That shouldn't be the case." The old housekeeper said, "According to the legend, those three magic items should be just tools made by 'Reaper' at will. Maybe they all have very strange abilities, but to be honest How powerful it is... not necessarily."

"Of course, even if the power they can generate is indeed very powerful, it can't help us now-if the truth is what we think, are we really going to be like Ingnotus in the story, cloaked in invisibility? Cloak to play peek-a-boo with its master forever?"
