HP Dark Lord save the world

Chapter 59
"Magic mirror?" Dumbledore was a little curious. He knew that Itana had always been smart and stable, and such a performance was rare.

"Yes! It said it by itself." Itana patted the mirror, "Look, it can't see people—"

Speaking of which, Itana found that her hand was reflected in the mirror, and it was not as directly transparent as before.

It seems very uncooperative, Itana paused, and the smile on the corner of her mouth remained undiminished, "The most important thing is, neither magic nor hammer can hurt it at all, Alicia used this mirror to do it. Divination."

Dumbledore's expression moved slightly, and he asked in confirmation, "Is it what Alicia used for divination?"

"Yes sir." Itana nodded, "He could talk just now, but now he wants to pretend to be an ordinary mirror, it's really cunning!"

The girl made an angry look, "This will also damage my reputation with you, so I should give this evil magic item to the teacher!"

As she spoke, she handed the mirror over, and Dumbledore took it, squinting as if examining it.

After a while, he pushed down the half-moon glasses, and said to Itana seriously: "Itana, I'm glad you choose to trust me at this time, you've done a very good job, now I have something to confirm a bit."

It seemed that he had seen something, and Itana felt relieved, it wasn't that she didn't trust Dumbledore's vision, but that there was an eventuality in everything, what if he just didn't know about Horcruxes right now?

"If you are busy in advance, Tom and I will go back first, and I hope we can make it in time for dinner." Itana said and pulled Tom down.

As if being pardoned, Tom said goodbye to Dumbledore with a smile without any objection, and the two returned to the third floor along the stairs.

"Why do you push me out every time?" Tom complained dissatisfied on the way back to the secret room.

Itana smiled and fooled, and changed the subject, "I just felt that the ghost of the ancestor has a physical touch, and I don't think this is a good phenomenon."

Tom frowned, and Itana shrugged: "It's not that I think the ancestors will hurt us or something. There are so many organs in the secret room, and he wanted to do it sooner. What I'm worried about is that this phenomenon is not an exception."

"You also heard what the broken mirror said. If this kind of change is common to all ghosts, it will be troublesome. The world will be messed up."

Tom nodded and talked about another topic, "What is a Horcrux?"

Ah, this... Itana felt as if something was choking her throat, and she paused for a while before giving an explanation: "A kind of magic related to resurrection, which is done by cutting the soul, um, pretty stupid magic."

"Why do you say that?" Tom looked interested.

Itana looked at him for a few seconds, exhaled, and said, "I confess, I have actually found a way to enhance my magic power."

"I know." Tom was not surprised. "You haven't looked for related books in this period of time. With your stubborn character, you won't give up easily until you find them."

"Let me guess, in the book I gave you, or did you find something else?" Tom's expression at this time did not show any concealed dissatisfaction, but was full of interest, as if I had seen through it. .

childish.Itana snorted in her heart, and praised him perfunctorily: "You guessed it right, you're so smart, Tom."

Then she continued, before Tom could sneer back: "In short, I know the source of the magic power."

Although Tom was upset by the mocking attitude, Itana's follow-up words still attracted his attention.

"What is it?" he asked.

"Soul, the magic power comes from the soul." Itana spread her hands, "So whoever makes the Horcrux is a fool."

Tom was puzzled at first, and then suddenly realized.

Indeed, if the magic power comes from the soul, then storing part of the soul into items is undoubtedly weakening the soul itself, and the magic power will also be weakened as it should be.

Itana looked at Tom nodding thoughtfully, feeling a lot of troubles in her heart but didn't know where to start.

During the chat, the two returned to the secret room, the ancestor had been waiting for a long time.

"The mirror is handed over, will he really not tell you about you still at Hogwarts?" Itana was still a little worried, the mirror seemed to be quite eloquent, maybe he would say something to Lao Deng in private .

Salazar stroked his beard with a calm expression, "He won't, because he doesn't want his plan to be exposed."

"What's his plan?" Itana pulled up a chair and sat down as if ready to listen to the story, with gossip in her eyes.

Tom also took a seat and said with interest, "Ancestor, we are very curious about the reason why you are still in Hogwarts. Can you tell us about it?"

"Unfortunately, for various reasons, what I know is not comprehensive. I can only feel that my connection with this world is deepening. I think you can feel it too, Etana." Salazar said to Itana He raised his palm.

He was referring to the scene when he patted Itana's shoulder before. The palm that should have been illusory suddenly felt solid, which surprised Itana for a while.

"That mirror existed as early as when I was young. I don't know his more distant past, but I know that he has been trying to leave the mirror, but unfortunately he has never been able to succeed. He is a Horcrux, but also Not quite a Horcrux."

"The soul in a horcrux can be resurrected through the vitality of others, but he is different. His soul essence has been converted into a ghost just like mine, and there are many ghosts like me who have no clear relationship with him."

"I'm still staying here just to add another layer of protection to the place I built with my old friends." Salazar's gentle voice contained a touch of sadness, and the illusory book reappeared in his hand.

"What I can tell you is—before you graduate and leave Hogwarts, assimilate as much knowledge as possible from me. This will be your most reliable reliance in dealing with possible dangers."

Salazar's words made Itana's thoughts involuntarily fall on the pieces of knowledge she currently possessed.In the face of danger, you can only fight if you have the strength, and this self does not mean that you are really the only one.

She needs to speed up her understanding of that knowledge, and then find an opportunity to teach it to other people in the society.

If that so-called change comes from what the mirror says is "us," then you can use one force against another.

Back in the dormitory, Itana continued to learn the Nyala script as usual, and used it to translate and interpret the "Soul and Magic Power" written in Nyala script given by Tom.

Outside the window, a row of black figures whose faces could not be seen were lined up in the waters of the Black Lake, quietly watching Itana in the room.

They seemed to be listening, and seemed to be waiting, but when Etana's eyes fell on the window inadvertently, all she saw was the dark water body of the Black Lake, and swimming fish quietly passing by.
