"Nico and I have traveled to many places and experienced many adventures in order to find outsiders who came to this world like me. The magic world in the Middle Ages was not as safe as it is now. There were too many people with bad intentions. It has been almost three or four hundred years. I have seen everything I should see and experienced most of the things I should experience. I want a more stable and peaceful life. Nico thinks so too, so we have lived in seclusion and not let anyone disturb us."
The old man looked at Hector, recalling the past years, and he continued,
"However, Nico did not stop looking for the outsider. He made two preparations. If the outsider had no ill intentions towards this world, he would teach him everything he knew and guide him on the right path. If the outsider intended to destroy this world, he would fight against the outsider. Nico spent a long time studying various alchemical products, and he was also quietly waiting, watching the world as an observer."
"As for me, I have been studying the way back home for so many years. This world is good, and Nico is a good kid, but I still want to go home, back to where I live, and go back to see my own children.
The old man paused, and then he continued,
"I want to see if he is eating well, wearing warm clothes, in good health, and married. I know that I have lived in this world for nearly seven hundred years, and you are probably gone, but I have a feeling that you must still be alive. I want to see you, even just for a glance."
The old man's voice also became choked, and Hector turned his head to see him. Grandpa turned his head quickly, raised his arms, rubbed his eyes, and then turned around again.
"I almost forgot that I don’t have tears."
When Grandpa faced Hector, his face was always full of smiles, even now.
"I have found the way to the outside world. Nico helped a lot. He got a mirror from somewhere. He said that the mirror was called the Mirror of Erised. It was from this mirror that I found the way to the outside world."The
Mirror of Erised," Hector remembered.
It was the mirror placed in the abandoned classroom on the fifth floor of Hogwarts.
He seemed to have seen some very interesting things in it, but why was his memory so vague? Hector could remember the causes and consequences of looking for the magic mirror, and even the image of the old man in front of him in the magic mirror.
However, the memory became blurred after seeing the image of his grandfather, just like the picture quality was suddenly changed from ultra-clear to high-definition.
Both the picture and the sound became blurred.
What's even stranger is that when Hector made up his mind to recall the details, that memory was like a piece of soap touching water.
As soon as his thoughts touched it, It will be transferred to the previous or later memory very smoothly.
Someone, or some power, tampered with Hector's memory.
Although the cover-up was very poor and something was wrong, Hector still felt his hair stand on end, followed by a moment of fear.
There is actually a way to replace his memory secretly without attracting Hector's attention.
Although the impact is not very large at present, as long as that power can tamper with Hector's brain, it can completely tamper with his memory one day.
By then, will he still be himself? Maybe it will just be the shell of Hector.
"I found a passage to the outside world in the mirror, but this passage is not suitable for me, and I cannot go to the outside world through this passage.
Nico also knew about this, and he was also very interested in the outside world.
So he began to study the mirror - I have to say, Nico is really smart, and I am very glad that I chose him.
It didn't take Nico long to study the secret of the Mirror of Erised, and he helped me build a mirror with the same function.
The experiment was a success, and the mirror will be put into use soon - and then without any signs, I fell into a deep sleep.
"
The old man was a little excited, but he soon calmed down, and his face was full of relief,
"When I woke up again, two hundred years had passed.
Nico was like a different person.
He told me that an outlier had come into this world - Nico never used the word outlier.
I couldn't stop him.
My strength had been almost consumed by the long years, but I still tried to persuade him as much as possible and tried to influence his mind.
The effect was very general, but it could still be restrained a little.
After all, Nico was still a good boy at heart - the lack of strength made me comatose intermittently, and the coma time was getting longer and longer - until you came.
"
Hector stood up from the ground. He looked at the old man in front of him, and he didn't dare to blink. The old man's body was no longer as solid as before. His figure was slowly dimming, and the edges of his body gradually turned into glittering fragments and disappeared into the air - the old man seemed to have noticed this, but he didn't care.
"It's okay, child. I'm already very happy to see you. I'm already very satisfied to have existed for such a long time.
The old man was very calm. He was still dressed in the same simple way as I remembered, with a familiar and kind smile on his face.
"You are right, death is just an adventure. I have seen enough of the world and it is almost time to leave."
Hector could not say anything. He could only try to control his emotions. He always remembered that his grandfather did not like to see him cry.
"Don't worry about me, child, and don't take risks for me. Just live a peaceful and stable life. Since God has given you a chance, you must cherish it and don't waste it."
The old man's figure became dimmer and dimmer.
Cracks appeared on his illusory body one after another, and fragments kept falling off his body.
This is perhaps the most obvious way to see the passage of time.
There was no fear of death on the old man's face.
His bright smile was relieved, and perhaps a little worried.
He didn't care about his body gradually dissipating in the air.
His eyes were fixed on the strange yet familiar child in front of him.
After a long time, the grandfather said the last sentence in a tone as relaxed as possible.
"Nice to meet you, kid."
As if he had used up all his strength, Grandpa's body disappeared into the air, and his body broke apart and turned into sparkling stars. They circled around Hector for several times, and then reluctantly pierced into Nicolas Flamel's body. Mr. Flamel on the chair woke up, his face pale, looking at the sad child in front of him, as if he realized something.
"he's gone?"
"gone"
"Feel sorry"
"No need"
"He didn't blame me."
"No"
"I'm going to find him"
"Me too."
