Harry Potter I Am Death

Chapter 71 The Heir

The subsequent development was as described in the plot. Harry successfully took out the Gryffindor sword in the hat, stabbed the basilisk to death, and destroyed the diary with the basilisk's teeth.

One of Voldemort's Horcruxes was destroyed, and the soul in it was completely destroyed.

And Eli returned to that white space again.

"This is me, dead again?"

It's no wonder Eli thought so, but he stared straight into the eyes of the basilisk, giving him a deadly stare.

"No, you just passed out"

An old voice sounded, and Eli was shocked. He saw a bald old man in a gray robe standing behind him.

"Don't be afraid, child"

"You are?" Eli felt that this face looked familiar, as if he had seen it somewhere.

"You should have seen my statue and know my name"

A name suddenly popped up in Eli's mind, but he felt that his idea was too absurd.

But the old man in front of him still gradually coincided with the name in his mind.

"Old... old dean?"

"Oh yes, I am your old headmaster, Salazar Slytherin"

The old man seemed a little excited since he hadn't spoken to anyone for hundreds of years.

Eli only thought that he might have seen a ghost. Slytherin is a person who has been dead for thousands of years. How could he appear here again?
Slytherin seemed to see Eli's suspicion, "In fact, I should have died, but because of some troubles, I let my soul stay."

"Trouble? I mean... what kind of trouble can..."

Eli couldn't imagine what kind of trouble would make such a legendary wizard have to keep his soul.

Slytherin's face became serious, "Child, each of us is just being manipulated from birth to death, and thus divination was born to spy on our second half of life, but there are always people who are not willing to be dominated at will."

"So you too?"

Slytherin nodded.

But Eli still doesn't understand what kind of existence can control the fate of everyone in the world, and why Slytherin chooses to exist in the form of a soul so far, just because he doesn't want to die?
"Then who is manipulating us?"

Eli felt a little creepy, is everything in the world being manipulated?Aren't they acting in a play?
"grim Reaper"

Slytherin answered quite succinctly, and his eyes were still calm.

"grim Reaper?"

This is not the first time that Eli has heard the name of the god of death. Nick Lemay has explained to him the Deathly Hallows and the authority of the god of death before.

But Eli never believed that there really are gods in this world.

Slytherin continued, "The god of death controls the fate of people. When you are born and when you die are just his thoughts. But the god of death is not without desires. He longs for souls, longing for powerful souls, throughout the ages , he planned the deaths of countless powerful wizards and collected their souls"

"Do you know the killing curse? It's the thing that emits green light. This is the magic created by the god of death to collect the soul and control the mind."

The image of Slytherin in Eli's heart gradually collapsed. Is this old and unserious guy really one of the founders of Hogwarts, Salazar Slytherin...

"Every person who is killed by the Death Curse will have his soul collected by the God of Death, and every time the person who casts the Death Curse uses the Death Curse, his soul will burst once, and eventually he will gradually lose his mind. So easily controlled by the god of death"

Slytherin talked on and on, and Eli listened intently, secrets he had never heard before.

"There are also dementors. They are not considered as life. They are just tools that the god of death sent to the world to help him absorb souls. They are extremely evil. And the god of death likes the souls of those powerful wizards, such as me. He tried every means to make me die. , and I will spend my whole life fighting against him.”

"That basilisk is actually my Animagus. In my old age, I sealed my soul in the Animagus forever. I can never change back into a human form, but at least Death can't do anything to me. Later, because of the shrinkage of my soul, my body has been relying on instinct to move until I found a suitable heir to complete my unfinished business."

"What business?"

"Kill Death!"

Eli was taken aback by Slytherin's sudden outburst of murderous intent.

Killing the god of death, how crazy it sounds, such terrible words are said from the mouth of an old man, although he is a legendary wizard who has existed for thousands of years.

Eli's mind was greatly shocked. The Slytherin thousands of years ago, the god of death who controlled life and death, and the basilisk turned out to be Slytherin himself?
That stuff seems to be almost cooked by him...

Eli carefully distanced himself from him, for fear that the old man would suddenly say that he wanted revenge.

Slytherin noticed Eli's actions, he seemed to have the ability to read people's hearts, "Hey boy, can I still seek revenge from you for killing my body?"

"No...no"

"Don't think I don't know what you're thinking, forget it, don't worry, my soul has been trapped in that body for too long, and now you have done a good thing by releasing me, but in the future I will But I’m going to stay here with you, there’s no room fee.”

"Hmm... um? What? Stay with me? Where?"

Eli's face was full of question marks, and he was puzzled by Slytherin's words.

"Of course it exists in your space. I didn't expect that someone could give birth to a blurry illusion. It's incredible!"

Slytherin looked around, amazed.

"Misty illusion? Isn't this my soul space?"

"It can also be regarded as your soul space. This is also the destination of all lost souls. You can't move forward or backward. This is also the domain of the god of death."

The Slytherin gave Eli a deep look.

"I will always exist here, and the god of death will not find me. If you encounter any problems, come to me, and I will help you settle it."

At this time, Slytherin looked like a big brother who vowed to cover him, and Eli's mouth twitched when he saw it.

But now he also has a grandfather?

"Don't always act like you haven't seen the world, as my heir, you have to be a little tolerant"

"Heir? Me?"

Eli is completely confused now, why did I suddenly become the heir?
Am I not from the Potters?

Is it...

Eli felt as if he had discovered something extraordinary.

Crack, Slytherin slapped Eli on the head.

"What are you thinking, you have no blood relationship with me at all"

"Then why..."

"Do you think my heirs have to be my descendants? Anyone who meets the requirements can become an heir, like that brat named Tom, who split his soul to make Horcruxes because he was afraid of death. I can feel that he is already in Under the control of the god of death, such a person is not worthy of being my successor!"

When Slytherin mentioned Voldemort, he looked disdainful.

"Then why do you say that after opening the chamber of secrets, you come out and kill all the non-pure blood?"

"I don't discriminate against non-pure blood. On the contrary, non-pure blood often has good talents. If you want to ask me why I target them, I have to start from the past. At that time, the Holy See had been hunting wizards. Ordinary humans had no power to match them." Wizards fight, but until some Muggle-born wizards come out, they have hearts for the Holy See, and they are hostile to wizards”

"Back then, we established Hogwarts to leave a pure land for wizards, but some Muggle-born wizards mixed in. They spied on information and cooperated with outsiders, which caused us great losses. So, when I completely After turning into a Basilisk, as long as someone opens the Chamber of Secrets, it means that Hogwarts is in a crisis, and I will come out to protect my school!"

Eli was awed by Slytherin's words, but he thought again, "Then why are you attacking those innocent classmates?"

Slap, Eli got another slap.

"I've said it all, my soul has been hiding, and this body is acting purely on instinct!"

"Okay, let's go, I'm going to rest"

Eli was speechless for a while, it is obviously my soul space, you are just like your home.

"By the way, Godric and those guys should be similar to me. If you have a chance, look for them and ask them to come and be my companion. By the way, I will give you something, and it will be a gift from the heir."

Slytherin didn't say anything, and with a wave of his hand, Eli felt that he had retreated instantly, and his consciousness returned to his body.
