Hogwarts: Oops, I'm Voldemort

Chapter 256 New Prophecy

"Hedwig, why are you here?"

Cyrus made a gesture before she fell to the ground, and he released his magic, dragging Hedwig and bringing him to him.

Hedwig seemed to have gone through a long journey. She looked very tired, her feathers were a little messy, and she looked a little weak. She looked like she hadn't eaten much in a few days.

Cyrus wanted to know what made her so urgent that she didn't even bother to eat in order to deliver the letter.

He cast a summoning spell, got some water and food, let Hedwig take a good rest, and then took out the envelope she brought.

No surprise, this is a letter from Harry.

When he opened the envelope, Harry's handwriting looked very sloppy. He seemed so eager to get the letter into Cyrus' hands that he didn't even have time to write a formal greeting inside.

Of course, Cyrus doesn't care about any of this.

[Cyrus, I have to tell you something. It’s about the prophecy, which you asked me to pay attention to before——]

prophecy?

Cyrus was stunned for a moment.

He remembered that he had asked Harry to pay attention to whether there were any prophecies about him. The Divination teacher at Hogwarts is a wizard who is truly gifted in language. Although her bloodline is thin, she can always glimpse some pictures of the future without knowing it and get enlightenment.

She predicted that Harry would become Voldemort's enemy and destroy Voldemort.

It has to be said that even with Cyrus' intervention, this prophecy cannot be said to have been broken. Harry indeed played an important role in destroying Voldemort.

Originally, the second prophecy made by Ms. Trelawney was related to Voldemort's resurrection, but since Pettigrew had long returned to his master, that prophecy was not uttered from her mouth.

Good thing now, a new prophecy has appeared again.

Without looking further down, Cyrus had a hunch that this prophecy must be related to the God of Death.

In fact, it was just as he expected.

The letter reads:

[The God of Death is looking for his three sacrifices. No matter how time changes, he will get the soul he originally deserved.

[They defeated powerful enemies together and received praise and gifts from the God of Death. The eldest one received the invincible Elder Wand. He praised the infinite magic power of the Elder Wand, but was secretly attacked and took his life. 】

"The story of the God of Death and the three brothers?" Cyrus frowned. It sounded like this so-called prophecy was just a retelling of the story of the three brothers. He could recite the rest of the content without reading further.

The second of the three brothers is an arrogant wizard who is determined to humiliate Death and seek the power to resurrect the dead. Later, he resurrected his lover who died young, but was tortured crazy by his coldness and ruthlessness and chose to commit suicide.

Sure enough, the content of the prophecy written by Harry was quite similar.

As for the third part, there is not so much content to boast about the wisdom of the third child. The God of Death still took away his third sacrifice, and then, the unstoppable death finally came to the world.

Cyrus suddenly had an indescribable feeling. Looking at this story that he had heard countless times, he felt that it was more than just a story.

"The prophecy said three sacrifices, not three brothers." He thought, "Dumbledore was the first one. He held the most powerful Elder Wand, but he was attacked by Death and died. The remaining two people were not Will it be me and Grindelwald?"

The idea popped into Cyrus's head.

"He will get the soul that originally belonged to Him." Cyrus repeated.

According to the original direction of the story, Dumbledore would indeed die, and shortly after his death, Grindelwald was also killed by Voldemort. In this way, the God of Death naturally took away their souls.

As for the third one...

[The invisibility cloak protected the third sacrifice, but he will eventually be alone and be tested by death again at the end of his life]

【No one can escape the judgment of death】

"it's me?"

In fact, due to his existence, Voldemort had no time to carry out his reign of terror after his resurrection, and almost no wizards died tragically. He changed everything, so it is not surprising that the God of Death would target him.

only……

"My soul does not belong to anyone." Cyrus sneered.

grim Reaper?

It sounds like that, but what is it actually? Aren't you a guy who only knows how to make trouble in secret?

If He dares to show his face, Cyrus wouldn't mind competing with Him!

Putting away the letter, Cyrus raised his head. He noticed that everyone in the court was looking at him, their expressions were solemn and even worried. This made Cyrus laugh out loud.

Obviously, when a person is strong enough, every move he makes will attract attention.

You don't have to speak loudly, but the sound can be deafening.

"Mr. Sellers, what's the matter?" Babajid thought about it for a while, hesitated, and then asked.

Even though Cyrus just lowered his head and read a letter, his frowning and thoughtful look frightened many people. Who knows what is written in that letter. Cyrus thinks he is the person who can decide the life and death of the magical world. They can ignore anyone and anything, but they cannot ignore him.

"Nothing, Mr. Akinbad," Sellers said with a smile.

He did not intend to reveal the prophecy, but just said: "Mr. Ajinbad, thank you for defending me just now."

The old wizard nodded. He looked very old, but he still had energy: "I just trust Dumbledore's judgment."

He said: "Albus believes in you, otherwise he would not cooperate with you."

Even though Dumbledore is dead, his influence is still there. Especially those wizards who were in the same era as him, they understood the meaning of this name best.

Finally, Ajinbad pleaded with red eyes: "Can we find the murderer?"

"Of course, even if it's just for myself, I will find him." Cyrus nodded.

Slowly, those people left. Bella and Cassandra came up to him. Neither of them asked Cyrus what happened because they believed Cyrus could solve any problem.

It was Cassandra who asked, "Do you want me to kill that Nuno Busch?"

In response, Cyrus laughed. He shook his head and said sympathetically: "Why bother? He is pathetic enough without a brain."

Meanwhile, at Hogwarts.

"I hope Cyrus can receive the letter soon," Harry said.

Now, he still thinks of Trelawney's madness that night. She seemed to be sleepwalking, and like a delirious madman, she walked to the tower where Dumbledore fell and muttered to herself.

At that time, the lower grade students were still taking astronomy class. The professor of the astronomy class was very surprised that Trelawney, who usually had been hiding in the tower, suddenly came down. As a result, she went crazy in the observatory. In the end, most of the students in the school were Ran over.

She turned a blind eye to the crowd of people watching her, her eyes were shining like the legendary Third Eye.

Then, Professor McGonagall hurriedly evacuated the crowd, and Harry and the others were lucky enough to stay and hear the prophecy.

This time, even Hermione, who least believed in divination, had nothing to say, and Trelawney fell into a coma soon after telling the prophecy, and is still lying in the school doctor's office.

Apparently, her divination ability had backfired on her, and Madam Pomfrey didn't feel so optimistic.

"Because what she predicted was not an ordinary person, but a god." She guessed, "Trelawney's magical power is not enough to support her blasphemy."

Madam Pomfrey even believed that Trelawney could receive this revelation, perhaps as a warning from Death himself.

The prophet was unconscious, which cast a haze on Harry and others.

Without missing a moment, he wrote to Cyrus immediately.

"The prophecy may not come true." Ginny said, "At least Cyrus will never die!"

She said it very forcefully and decisively. On the one hand, Ginny did have great confidence in Cyrus. So far, Cyrus has only lost one battle. That time he had just been resurrected and his magical power was far from its peak when he met Dumbledore holding the Elder Wand.

Cyrus hasn’t lost to anyone since.

Even if the opponent this time might be the God of Death, Ginny could not imagine that there would be any exception.

On the other hand, she is also giving herself confidence.

"If Grindelwald and Cyrus join forces, the chances of winning will be even greater," Hermione said. Her eyes subconsciously looked towards the atrium of the castle. Everyone knew that Dumbledore was buried in that direction.

Ron shook his head, obviously scorning Hermione's words: "Come on, he's almost crazy."

He was referring to Grindelwald.

"He wanders around the castle in filth every day, like a walking zombie. Do you know how many days he hasn't cleaned himself up?" He said in disbelief, "If everyone hadn't been afraid of him going crazy, someone would have killed him long ago. Kicked out."

He told the truth.

In fact, Harry felt that Grindelwald now looked very much like a person. His beautiful eyes had long since lost their light, and they were as hollow as if someone had dug them out.

He was lifeless. When standing in the sun, he seemed to be lying in a cold, smelly ditch.

When Harry expressed his feelings about Grindelwald, Ginny, Hermione and Ron immediately thought of another person - Severus Snape.

Today, the prince's story is no secret to the four of them.

Snape also met Harry's mother again through the Resurrection Stone, and this time, Lily finally forgave him.

She had no reason not to forgive. Although Snape was the murderer who ruined their family's happiness, they lived in the era ruled by Voldemort. Even if the Dark Lord didn't know the prophecy, they might have died fighting the Death Eaters. .

At least now, Harry survived and Voldemort was finally dead.

Snape played a crucial role - Lily was very happy that her former friend could return from his lost ways. The regrets and unhappiness in the past had long since disappeared in the face of death, not to mention that she was not entirely fond of Snape. Terrible memory.

At least, in 1971, the boy who walked out of Spider-End Alley still gave her great childhood memories, preventing her from being isolated because of her abilities, and letting her know that having magical talents was not a bad thing.

Snape looked much better now than before. He finally seemed to crawl out of the soil, and sprouts sprouted again from his rotting body. Maybe he couldn't fall in love with anyone else, but at least he knew he was still breathing.

"Maybe he will feel better after seeing Professor Dumbledore," Ron said.

"No!" Harry shook his head vigorously.

He knew what Ron meant. There was a resurrection stone in Cyrus's hand.

"Have you forgotten the prophecy?" Hermione also scolded, "And that fairy tale - if Grindelwald really used the Resurrection Stone to force Professor Dumbledore to stay in this world, then there would be no need to wait for Death to do it, he would do it himself It will go crazy first.”

A cold Dumbledore is suffocating to think about.

"I'm most worried about Cyrus," Harry said. "I gave him my cloak."

This statement made both Ginny and Hermione scream.

"What are you doing, Harry?" None of them understood why Harry did this. "The prophecy said that the cloak would not be able to help him escape the fate of death."

"You're hurting him!" Ginny was angry.

But Harry shook his head.

"Haven't you all discovered?" he said, "There are some prophecies, and sometimes the more you prevent it, the more likely it is to happen!"

"More than ten years ago, Voldemort thought he could strangle me when I was young. As a result, fragments of his soul fell into my head, and I became his weakness and the key to his death.

"It was his own choices that caused all of this to happen." Harry said, "But if we go the other way and adapt to all of this, maybe there will be a turn for the better."

After he finished speaking, the other people were silent for a while, and then Ron said:

"You're starting to sound more and more like Dumbledore, Harry."

This brought the topic to the ground again.

Harry was wondering, wasn't he? Are you starting to sound more and more like Dumbledore?

Soon, he realized that this was indeed the case.

If it were before, he wouldn't have thought so much, but now, he tried to think from a different perspective and tried to find the answer in another way, but he still realized the difference between him and Dumbledore.

He did not become as smart as Dumbledore, but became cowardly.

He had to admit that he was scared.

But he can even overcome death and even take his own life, so what else is there to be afraid of?

He asked himself, and soon got an answer.

There is nothing terrible about his own death, it can even be said that he has already died once. But he was afraid that one day he would wake up and hear the news of Cyrus' death, not only Cyrus, but also Ron, Hermione, Ginny, Neville... and many others.

Before this, he had never thought that these people would leave him.

But Dumbledore's death told him that this was not the case. Anyone could die, not even the greatest wizard.

That was Death, the Death who made the Deathly Hallows, the Death who killed Dumbledore...
