Spotted By Grindelwald And Went To Hogwarts Chapter 147: The key to the illusion
"Not long," Sean shook his head and asked curiously, "Professor, do you know the purpose of my coming here?"
Dumbledore walked to him and sat down: "Newt contacted me. Coincidentally, I learned something at the Ministry of Magic. I guessed that you would probably come to me."
"Ministry of Magic?"
"Yes, Sean, I wonder if you have the habit of reading newspapers?"
Shawn nodded a little embarrassedly, he has been rubbing against the Daily Prophet that Hermione ordered.
But newspapers? Sean was taken aback for a moment, thinking of the news he had seen before.
On the day they started school, the Ministry of Magic encountered thieves, but Minister Fudge has been refusing to say what the stolen things were. Harry and his party almost missed the train because they encountered Aurors who were chasing the intruders.
"Professor, is it related to the stolen thing?"
Dumbledore nodded: "Yes, the Department of Mysteries of the Ministry of Magic lost important items, and it took me a lot of effort to pry some information out of Fudge's mouth."
"What's that?"
"A key, but I'm more inclined, that's a needle..."
A key and a needle? Sean looked at him suspiciously.
Dumbledore's expression was a little serious, he looked up to the skylight, there was a dark night sky, there was not a single star tonight.
"Sean, when you were in the Muggle world, you should have heard a lot, eh, fairy tales?" Dumbledore asked without thinking.
"Yes, professor, I have thought about it many times since I entered Hogwarts. There seem to be many shadows of wizards in those fairy tales." Although he didn't know why Dumbledore asked this, Sean answered quickly.
Dumbledore smiled: "Yes, wizards have appeared on this land since ancient times. Whether it is the wizarding world or the Muggle world, there are indeed many shadows of wizards in those ancient legends. However, there is another thing we want to talk about, Sean, have you heard of the 'beyond world'?"
Shawn nodded in doubt. Of course he has heard of the other world. According to the myth, the "Better World" is a magical place. There are gods, elves, and fairies living there, as well as ugly and terrifying giants and monsters. It is a paradise where souls temporarily live before reincarnation.
The other world is different from the concept of **** or hell. This place is usually located on sacred lakes, islands, forests and high mountains. It is a paradise where souls live temporarily before reincarnation. Some of these places are resplendent and resplendent like heaven, while others are gloomy and depressing like hell.
Moreover, the world of human beings is only one step away from the other world, but only prophets and bards can freely shuttle between the two. Of course, in legends, there are also many heroes who obtained powerful martial arts and extraordinary abilities there.
"It looks like you know, so I won't need to explain again. Chatting with Fudge is really tiring work." Dumbledore waved his hand, and a bottle filled with drinks flew over. He poured two glasses, and then drank it happily. "I like sweet drinks, Sean, don't you want to try them?"
Sean took a sip, and then asked suspiciously: "I've heard of the other world, but does it have anything to do with the wizarding world?"
"Of course, my child." Dumbledore blinked, "The Otherworld has another name in the wizarding world, but very few people have heard of it. It's called: Misty Illusion."
Sean remembered it all at once, he still remembered this, the blurred illusion is a state between life and death. It appears inside the human mind, both reality and illusion.
Dumbledore explained: "Illusion is a place where the soul temporarily settles, where the unknown and mysterious..."
Sean suddenly thought of what the ghostly horned water snake had said. It had just woken up a few days ago... and Dumbledore just said that the mysterious man who sneaked into the Ministry of Magic stole a key.
He raised his head in surprise, not even noticing that the drink in the cup spilled out.
"Professor, that key can open the gap between the illusion and the world?!"
Dumbledore sighed: "I think that should be the case—but I don't know whether the Misty Illusion is another world or whether it was created by human thoughts. However, I can be sure that there is an unknown barrier between this world and the Misty Illusion, and this barrier can only be opened at a special moment, perhaps when a person dies..."
Dumbledore raised the cup in his hand: "Just like this cup, we are separated from the illusion by a barrier. Only at certain special moments, your soul will rise and fall into the illusion from the mouth of the cup."
"And that stolen thing, it can drill a small hole in the wall of the cup..." Dumbledore shook the cup, and a tiny hole appeared on the transparent cup wall.
The liquid inside flowed out slowly but firmly, and soon, a drop of water dripped from the hole.
Sean immediately understood what Dumbledore meant. He looked up at Dumbledore in disbelief, and swallowed hard: "Professor, those souls in the illusion..."
"Yes," Dumbledore nodded with a serious expression, "Although it's just a small gap, a few souls have already escaped, and they reappeared as ghosts, gaining abilities that they might not have possessed before they were alive..."
"That ghostly horned water snake is it?"
"Yes."
Shawn asked with a bit of a toothache: "There should be more than one of them, right? Besides, these souls have become ghosts again, what is their goal?"
"That's what I'm thinking too," Dumbledore adjusted his glasses helplessly, "the souls will become ghosts again, and they will work hard to fulfill their wishes in life. That water snake may be kind, but other souls may not be..."
His voice is deep and serious: "The mysterious person who stole the things has already made arrangements~IndoMTL.com~ He will use other ghosts that we have not yet known to complete his goal."
"What does he want?" Sean asked.
Dumbledore looked at Sean with complicated eyes: "The only thing I can think of is prophecy."
A prophecy again? Still a prophecy!
Sean took a few deep breaths with some irritability. This unknown prophecy was the key to everything, and he didn't understand why Daisy would be involved in it.
He thought that the accidents in Godric's Hollow and the Forbidden Forest were all aimed at him, but now it seems that he just met by mistake, and the real target is probably Daisy.
"Professor," Sean said in such dissatisfaction and anxiety for the first time, "Can't you tell me this prophecy?"
Dumbledore slowly stood up straight: "Maybe it's time..."
