Hogwarts, a Scholar Becomes a God

Chapter 30 The reality behind the fairy tale

Latest website: Resurrection!

This is a haunting term.

In many works of art, countless evocative stories have happened around this term.

Of course, because of differences in region, belief, and culture, people in various places have different views on resurrection.

In ancient times, when belief in gods was rampant, the existence of the underworld was nothing new, and there were countless powers of all kinds.

Therefore, resurrection was not a very special thing at that time. Whether it was the Chinese underworld and reincarnation, or the mummies and the underworld in ancient Egypt, or the heroic spirits in Nordic mythology, or even ancient Greek mythology and Japanese mythology, they all existed. The figure of the God of the Underworld also has legends of resurrection.

But in modern times, the mythology of the Western world has gradually been dominated by God, and the resurrection of the dead has become an option full of evil connotations.

Often in various legends, only devils and demons from hell, or the most evil and crazy wizards, would get involved in the field of resurrection of the dead.

In this regard, although wizards do not believe in God and even scorn His belief, they follow His values on the matter of resurrection and believe that resurrection is an evil spell.

This can also be seen in the fairy tale "The Legend of the Three Brothers" from the magical world.

In "The Legend of Three Brothers", the God of Death once gave the second brother a resurrection stone that could resurrect the dead. However, the second brother was dragged down to the underworld by his beloved wife after resurrection.

Trying to resurrect the dead will only bring disaster. Death is just a new journey. This is the mainstream value in the wizarding world.

It is precisely because of this that wizards define all spells related to the soul and death as black magic, strictly control this aspect, and prohibit casual learning and use.

Although Harry missed his mother, he had lived in the wizarding world for a few years, and he was still influenced by mainstream values, especially Dumbledore.

So after Clark said the words to resurrect his mother, on the one hand he felt extremely excited, but on the other hand he was very confused.

"Resurrection? How to resurrect? Is this possible?" Harry asked Clark hesitantly.

Clark could tell,

Harry was worried, but he didn't completely reject the offer, which was exactly what he expected.

"You know, during the summer vacation after the second grade, I went to Egypt with Hermione, Neville, and the Weasley family. We still gained a little bit there."

Harry asked curiously and with a hint of expectation: "What's the harvest?"

Clark smiled, "That is an ancient Egyptian magic book handed down from ancient times. It records all the secrets and power of Anubis."

"Anubis is the ancient Egyptian god of death, the guide of the dead souls. He is responsible for guiding the dead souls to the underworld.

According to my research, the high priests of ancient Egypt used the power of Anubis to resurrect the dead with the Black Book of the Dead, giving them the magic of death and becoming mummies - a kind of person who returned to the world from the underworld. Immortal spirit. "

"Undead?" Harry's expression was a little unnatural.

"Don't worry, I haven't finished speaking yet." Clark comforted Harry.

"If you want to resurrect the dead, you can't just rely on the Black Book of the Dead. Do you still remember the story I told you when I was in first grade? The story about the invisibility cloak and the three brothers?"

"Resurrection Stone?" Harry said immediately.

"Yes, although ancient Egypt had extraordinary skills in magic related to the underworld and the dead souls, times have changed and the belief in the gods of ancient Egypt has long since faded away.

Besides, we are in the UK, and the souls of the dead here do not necessarily belong to the ancient Egyptian concept of death.

However, many of the principles are still partly in common. "

Clark's words made Harry's heart rise and fall again. Repeatedly, his whole heart was pulled by Clark.

"If you can get the legendary resurrection stone, and then use the power of this magic book to arrange the magic rituals according to the book, you may be able to really bring people back from death.

Of course, you will also pay some price in the process..."

"Can I see the book?" Harry interrupted impatiently.

Clark shook his head, "How could I bring such a precious thing to school? What if it was stolen?"

Harry had a disappointed look on his face, but fortunately Clark spoke immediately.

"I put that book in the treasure room at home. It can be said to be absolutely safe. If you want to read it, you can come to my house this Christmas and have a look."

Harry was happy at first, and then a little depressed, "In this case, Professor, they will definitely not let me go to your house to spend Christmas."

As he said that, he looked at Clark again, "Can you bring it and let me take a look? Just take a look!"

Clark shook his head. It's not that I don't want to bring it, but this kind of magic book itself is very powerful. Once I bring it into the castle, Principal Dumbledore will most likely be aware of its existence.

"Then forget it!"

Harry said quickly. For some reason, when he heard this sentence, he subconsciously didn't want Principal Dumbledore to know about it.

As for why? He couldn't tell why.

Clark comforted him and said, "Actually, the book you are reading now doesn't mean much. In addition to the Black Book of the Dead, you also need resurrection stones and powerful power to ensure the successful operation of the resurrection ceremony, so we can do it for the time being. Let this matter go."

Harry thought about it, what Clark said made sense, and could only nod helplessly.

"The reason why I tell you this is to make you face your inner desires, and at the same time, it can also better help you fight against the Dementors.

But when your mother's scream before her death does not become your nightmare, but becomes your motivation to move forward, the horror of Dementors will naturally be greatly reduced. "

Clark continued.

“Of course, it’s not enough just to face your desires, you also have to take action towards this goal and move towards it.

In this process, every time you succeed a small step, you accumulate a point of self-confidence.

The closer you get to your goal, the stronger your self-confidence will be, the more determined your will will be, and when the time comes, this confidence and determination will become one with your magic.

No matter how many Dementors there are, as long as they stand in front of you and prevent you from moving towards your goal, they will all die under your spell. "

"Is this...really okay?" Harry was still a little doubtful.

"Don't hesitate, don't doubt, Harry, believe in yourself, you can do it!" Clark patted his shoulder hard, and with these words of encouragement, Harry felt a wave of heat rush into his heart.

"Yes, Mom, I can definitely resurrect you!" Harry clasped his hands and swore secretly in his heart.

Seeing Harry leave as if he was a different person, full of fighting spirit, Clark couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth slightly.

During the trip to Egypt a few months ago, during the communication with Imhotep, also known as Imhotep, through the few words revealed by the ancient Egyptian high priest, Clark clearly realized that Harry's existence had its own characteristics. Extraordinary meaning.

This is not a random thought on his part, nor is it a superstitious belief in the so-called halo of the protagonist. It is deduced from the stories in the original work and the various information collected after coming to this world.

First of all, if nothing else, the name of Harry's godfather, the wanted criminal "Sirius" Black who is currently on the run, has a strong symbolic meaning.

In ancient Egypt, Sirius had a very important and sacred status.

Every year around the "summer solstice", that is, in late June, when Sirius appears on the eastern horizon before sunrise, it is the beginning of the Nile River flooding season.

At this time, the flooding river not only did not scare the ancient Egyptian people, but also made them very happy.

Gu Han

Because along with these rivers came fertile soil that the ancient Egyptians needed for farming and a bumper harvest in the coming year.

Therefore, in ancient Egypt, Sirius was regarded as the "lucky star".

At the same time, in the calendar of the ancient Egyptians, the day when Sirius and the sun rose together in the early morning and the water level of the Nile River rose was regarded as New Year's Day - which means a new beginning.

All in all, in ancient Egyptian mythology, the appearance of Sirius before the sun rises is the beginning of "good days" and "new hope".

In other words, Sirius can also be regarded as the messenger or herald of the sun god.

Harry's godfather is also "Sirius", and he is also the "savior" of the new era of the wizarding world and the "new hope" of mankind.

In addition, at the end of the original story, during the decisive battle between Harry and Voldemort, the magic ceiling above their heads burst into a golden-red light, and a small half-round dazzling sun appeared on the windowsill closest to them.

Under the rising sun, Harry turned defeat into victory, and a radiant new sun lit up all the windows.

All of this and the strong image of sunrise all imply that Harry is the incarnation of the sun god!

Of course, if these are just in a fairy tale book, then of course it is just a little bit of caution on the part of the author, and there is no problem.

After all, Wang Luffy's rubber fruit can be transformed into the animal-type Human Fruit, Phantasmal Beast Species, and Nika form by the author who eats books. Harry Potter alludes to the [Sun God], so why not?

But after Clark traveled to the world of Harry Potter, the hidden meaning really changed.

After all, the gods really existed in this world.

Although they disappeared in the long river of history, the journey to Egypt always reminded Clark that the disappeared gods were also painstakingly preparing to return to the earth.

In this case, Harry's own [Sun God] meaning is particularly intriguing.

Clark's thinking even spread a little further, and his imagination expanded a little more, and he came up with another idea: Is the God of Death in the world of "Harry Potter" really just an ordinary [God of Death]?

You must know that the history of wizards can be traced, and their culture must also be inherited and traced. It cannot be created out of thin air.

In this case, who is this [God of Death] who appears in wizard legends?

There are only a few gods related to the power of [death] in major ancient civilizations.

Hela, the goddess of the underworld in Norse mythology.

Hades, the King of Hades in ancient Greek mythology.

Anubis, the god of death in ancient Egyptian mythology.

The underworld king in Chinese civilization - King Yama.

…

With all these factors, combined with the wizard's spells being inextricably linked to ancient Egypt, the probability of that kobold is simply not too high.

And in this case, if Harry is the [Sun God], then in the original story, the conversation between Dumbledore and Harry on the Soul Platform will have another interpretation.

Even thinking about it, the method Voldemort chose to make Horcruxes also had huge problems.

You know, when he was on vacation in France, Nick Flamel told him about the "Taiyi" ceremony of Osiris, the ancient Egyptian god of the underworld.

This ritual is hidden in ancient myths and legends. The dead Osiris was cut into pieces and then resurrected through the remains with the help of Anubis.

Many ancient wizards believed that this was the origin of Horcruxes.

And if this is true, then Voldemort may also be spying on the power of the [God of Death]. His "seven" Horcruxes are themselves part of the ritual. There may also be Anubis's handwriting behind them.

But in the end, Voldemort's lifelong pursuit came to nothing due to Harry's intervention. It is still unknown how much role [Sun God] played in this.

"So, even if they disappear, the intrigue between these gods will never stop?"

Clark thought secretly in his heart, "So, from this point of view, what role does Dumbledore, known as the greatest wizard in hundreds of years, play in this?"

Sometimes, the more we know, the less ignorant we find ourselves.

This is how Clark felt at the moment. Although the communication with the high priest Imhotep in Egypt solved some of his doubts, it also brought more questions.

These problems also cast a shadow over the fairy tale book "Harry Potter".

Just like Naruto in "Naruto" and Wang Luffy in "One Piece", there is no legend about a poor boy's counterattack in this world.

Harry: I am the protagonist

Naruto: I am the protagonist

Luffy: I am also the protagonist

Harry: I was abused by relatives since I was a child

Naruto: I have been discriminated against by people in the village since I was a child.

Luffy: I grew up living in a garbage dump

Harry: I'm an orphan

Naruto: I am an orphan too

Luffy: I have a father, but he is no different from an orphan.

Harry: I am the savior
