From Karma Taj to Hogwarts
Chapter 283 The Cause of “The Curse of Death”
Xiwen frowned and softly read the title written in runes on the spine——
"The Legend of Three Brothers."
I don't know whether it is a duplicate name or a coincidence, but its name is clearly the same as the last story in "The Poet Bidou's Tales".
What's more, after being narrated by the Dark Knight, the story of the three brothers, even though it has been artistically processed, actually happened. It was the story of the Peverell brothers fighting against death!
So why did the Greengrass family place this legendary story in the center of the library in such an important position?
Xiwen took down the "The Legend of Three Brothers" from the bookshelf.
The book is overall a dull gray-brown color, and the packaging is bound with string, making it look very old and ancient. Because the pages of thread-bound books are prone to breakage, they usually need to be laid flat when placed on shelves or collected. However, this book was not well preserved. Instead, it stood on the bookshelf like a glue-bound book.
Therefore, when Xiwen took the book off the shelf, he saw that some of the strings had broken and fallen off.
The whole book is not thick, and the top of the book is covered with dust. It seems that no one has read it for a long time. Xiwen opened the book, and as the yellowed pages came into view, a smell of decay hit his face.
Unsurprisingly, the entire book is written in ancient runes. The content is basically the same as the story in "The Tales of the Poet Pidgeot", but it adds a lot of details.
It turns out that the God of Death at that time not only left a mark of borrowed power for many believers, but also left a mark of inheritance that could be inherited by future generations. This will leave the families of the most loyal followers of Death to their descendants with the ability to borrow power from the God of Death!
According to the records in the book, it can be concluded that this kind of mark is not inherited by every descendant of those families. It often independently selects the most outstanding magical talent among the descendants of the corresponding family every few decades. The little wizard inherits the power of the mark of Death, and uses the power of Death to gradually transform the wizard's body from an early age.
Xiwen turned the book to the last page and stared blankly at the many families recorded on it that had been regarded as loyal believers by the God of Death.
Most of those families have long been lost in the long river of history, but one familiar name stands out among them - Greengrass.
It turns out that the so-called "Curse of Death" does not only refer to the difficulty of curing the blood curse passed down by the Greengrass family, but also points to the mark left by Death in a literal sense!
Sivan silently opened a dimensional door, traveling back and forth to every pure-blood family library under his control, plus the restricted book section of the Hogwarts library, and the room left by Ms. Ravenclaw in the Room of Requirement. In his small library, he spent more than half a month consulting many family directories recorded in "The Legend of Three Brothers".
Following the various materials and information he learned about the God of Death, as well as the historical materials left by the various families under the God of Death that he had just inquired about, Xiwen gradually and analytically restored a truth that had long been buried in the long river of time——
In the early Middle Ages more than a thousand years ago, when the Dark Knight lived, Death invaded the world.
The God of Death is too powerful for humans to contend with. In addition, he can use necromancy to arbitrarily control all living creatures in the world, making it even more difficult for humans to resist. Those who resist his existence will often be cruelly made into imps who cannot be freed, and will be suppressed on the cloak of death forever.
Therefore, most humans at that time had no idea of resisting this demon.
Even those ancestors who insist on the inheritance of mankind and fight against death with noble character to the end, while they say that we will definitely win the final victory, at the same time, they never dare to hope that we will truly succeed; When they sacrificed one after another, they never knew whether their sacrifice would bring them the desired results.
In such a context where the whole world is in ruins, the final victory is more like a pipe dream!
In this desperate mood, more and more human beings choose to become followers or servants of the God of Death under the instinct of survival, becoming a groveling slave, as if this can save their own lives.
The God of Death is also very generous, leaving a mark on those loyal servants and believers, allowing them to borrow his power, and then let them use this power to defeat those who fight desperately.
Just when no one could see the hope of victory and thought that human society would fall under the rule of death, the three Peverell brothers emerged, showing great energy.
The three of them won the praise of the God of Death with their powerful abilities and obtained extremely high positions under the God of Death.
In fact, after many years of observation, the three Peverell brothers understood that it is difficult for humans to defeat the powerful God of Death with their own strength. So the three of them lurked under the command of the God of Death, and took advantage of the loopholes that the God of Death bestowed on believers to create or transform three Deathly Hallows.
What is slightly different from what the Dark Knight said is that the people who are really lurking under the command of Death to resist are not only the three Peverell brothers, but also many ancient families.
Among them, the Greengrass family, as an ancient aristocratic family that arose on the green grassland of the country, together with many ancient families, reached a consensus with the three Peverell brothers. On the surface, they obeyed the instructions of the God of Death and pointed the blade at the same kind. In fact, he endured humiliation and sacrificed everything for the future of mankind!
Finally, a large part of their families gained the trust of the God of Death, and even a small number of them received the Mark of the God of Death that could be passed down to future generations.
Finally one day, the three Peverell brothers took out the Deathly Hallows. The elder Antioch used the Elder Wand to cast magic in the dark enchantment where Death suppressed magic; the second brother Cadmus used the Resurrection Stone to awaken those who had been suppressed. Controlling the former consciousness of humans and ghosts, they turned against the brutal demon; the third child, Ignotus, used the space ability of the invisibility cloak to seal the god of death in a different space.
With the cooperation of various ancient families, mankind has achieved its goals and won the final victory in the fight against death.
However, after the God of Death is sealed, it is difficult for his power to be transmitted from another space. The descendants of those families who have the mark of the God of Death that can be passed down in their bodies can no longer receive the power of the God of Death. The marks still exist, but the power is gone, and those marks begin to absorb the power of the bloodline of the family's heirs, so that they form an existence similar to a blood curse.
This is the cause of the "Curse of Death".
