Connor's Hogwarts

Chapter 180 Angels and Gods

"Professor Dumbledore, I don't think I understand what you mean." Connor had a bold idea in his mind, but he didn't dare to say it.

Dumbledore took a sip of black tea and said slowly: "Elves are very magical magical creatures. We wizards have studied more about elves than you imagined. Connor, do you know Soul Eater?"

"The demon who devours hope, the messenger who harvests souls, and the guard of Azkaban?" Connor didn't think about it.

"Yes, this is the general perception of Soul Eaters, that they are dark creatures born from darkness and despair, but in fact... things are not that simple."

"You already know that Soul Eater is also a kind of elf. It is almost immortal. The Patronus spell can expel them, but it can't kill them. Have you ever thought that since they are immortal, how can you kill them?" Why are they willing to compromise with the wizards and stay in Azkaban honestly? They are even willing to obey the orders of the Ministry of Magic"

"Are you saying that we wizards actually have a way to kill Soul Eater?" Connor was a little surprised. You must know that Azkaban has been a prison for wizards since 1718. The Ministry of Magic said that " Provide food for the Eater of Souls so that they will give up invading the human world."

If the wizard really has a way to destroy the Soul Eater, then the Ministry of Magic's statement is undoubtedly another big lie
"Yes, in fact, if an elf wants to maintain its own existence, it needs to meet three conditions. They are respectively" Dumbledore raised his fist, and he stretched out a finger every time he said a word:
"Mystery (Mystery), Miracle (Miracle), and Mood (Mood). These three elements make up what we call Magi" (Magi: Three Sages of the East. Interested book friends can Baidu)
"The elves don't just rely on devouring emotions to maintain their lives. It is these three 'M's that enable the elves to survive forever."

"Connor, do you know how the original Soul Eater was born?" Dumbledore put down his palm and looked at Connor.

"I saw this in "Memorabilia of the Wizarding World." Connor recalled and said:
"It is said that in the 15th century, a dark wizard named Extis built the fortress of Azkaban. He lured Muggle sailors to the island to torture and kill them brutally until his disappearance spell expired after the black wizard died. The Ministry of Magic discovered the island, and at that time the island was already occupied by Eater of Souls but no one knew how Eater of Souls was born."

"Well, that's right, in fact, you have already told the reason for the birth of Soul Eater, which are the three elements I mentioned." Dumbledore stroked his beard and said:

"Mystery is a concept. It is the reason why elves can be [immortal]. We in the wizarding world believe that the mystery of the birth of Soul Eater is [despair in a dark cage]."

"A miracle is a kind of possession. It is the root of the [immortality] of the elves. We believe that the miracle of the existence of the Soul Eater is [Azkaban]"

"As for emotions, you already know that they are just food for Soul Eater to maintain and grow itself. As long as any one of these three elements is destroyed, it can completely kill an elf."

Connor touched his chin: "You mean, as long as we destroy Azkaban, the Soul Eater will disappear?"

"That's right, not only that, as long as the Soul Eater leaves Azkaban, or out of the cage, they will consume their own existence, which can only be supplemented by sucking more positive emotions, so in fact, Soul Eater No wonder you won't leave Azkaban easily."

"Soul-eating monsters are the only known elves that can [reproduce], and they also have the desire to reproduce. In fact, it is not considered reproduction. I prefer to call it splitting. Soul-eating monsters can split by devouring souls, but The split Eater of Souls is essentially no different from other Eaters of Souls, which is why all Eaters of Souls look similar."

Connor felt that his strange knowledge had increased again: "So, according to you, Peeves, I mean Pepa, what is its mystery?"

Dumbledore nodded: "We think that the mystery of the Rumbler is [the loneliness of the Hidden Castle], and the miracle that made it born is Hogwarts. This is a weak elf. In fact, there are Rumblers in other magic schools. They live on the castle and are not aggressive."

Strange knowledge up↑

Connor was still digesting these miraculous knowledge. Suddenly, he realized: "Wait, professor, what does what you said have anything to do with Alice? What kind of elves are angels?"

After talking about it for a long time, it seemed that he didn't get the point. Connor suspected that the old man just came up with words.

"Of course it has something to do with it. As I said just now, the Noisy Monster is a very weak elf. Since there are weak elves, there must also be strong elves. Angels are known to be very powerful elves."

Dumbledore poured Connor a cup of tea, and continued to speak slowly: "We wizards, no, it should be the Holy See. They collectively call elves born from positive emotions and feed on negative emotions angels."

"In fact, you probably have also discovered that whether it is the Soul Eater or the Noisy Monster, their own existence cannot escape the 'concept' of their own existence. Why do they exist like this? In fact, it is because we think they should be like this existence." Dumbledore said some convoluted words, but before Connor could figure it out, he continued:
"Just like we think Eater of Souls is the embodiment of despair, they will devour our souls, so what it shows is that it has such abilities."

"We think that the boisterous monsters are noisy, so they won't have any other abilities except that they can only be noisy."

"That means, we can think of it like this: an elf is a magical creature that we imagine."

"Whether the elves are powerful or not is closely related to the concept of [mystery] at the beginning of their birth. In addition, the more people who agree with a certain concept, the stronger the elves will be created. That is a kind of [faith] strength."

Dumbledore narrowed his eyes slightly:

"In ancient times, we wizards and Muggles were not separated. At that time, Muggles also had [mystery]. Their longing for beauty created elves called angels. These elves have very strong abilities. .”

"Naturally, there will be wizards who want to try to master this power, and they really succeeded in the end."

"You mean the Holy See?"

"Yes, the original Holy See was an organization established by wizards to control angels. Now the Holy See without angels has lost its original meaning. That's why I say that angels are the lost authority of the Holy See."

"The birth of an angel is a very difficult thing. The more powerful an elf is, the more difficult it is to be born. And as long as you master the three elements of elf birth, you can easily kill an elf. Although an angel is powerful, once the angel exists Possessions are destroyed, and they perish."

Dumbledore seemed to have thought of something, he smiled and said, "Connor, do you know how far the most powerful elf can go?"

Connor shrank his neck: "What do you mean?"

Dumbledore's eyes became deep: "It's human's longing for omniscience and omnipotence. It needs to gather the thoughts of all living beings and was born. It only exists in imagination and is an omnipotent elf."

"That is"
