Hogwarts Mystery Sequence

"Chaos... Indescribable colors began to spread... Chaos was born... Unspeakable darkness covered the stars in the sky... Everything that exists now will Disappear..." Trelawny muttered to himself in a hoarse voice.

Suddenly, she screamed "ah" and subconsciously closed her eyes.

But the actual damage had been done. Two lines of blood flowed from the corners of Trelawney's eyes, and Trelawney himself fainted.

During the process of Trelawney's prophecy, 'Lockhart' had been observing her state with interest.

From the moment he met Trelawney, he consciously oppressed Trelawney in terms of momentum and spirit. This was not because he was used to being domineering, but because this kind of oppression would be very helpful in helping Trelawney enter the world. "state".

"Sight", as a type of magical talent, is far more profound in form and effect than a simple and direct ability like "Parseltongue". Even if a wizard spends his whole life studying it, he may not be able to Can't touch the threshold.

Well... to put it simply, it's more metaphysical.

Even a wizard who has awakened this talent may not be able to touch it without a special opportunity.

However, there is one thing that "scope" and "parseltongue" have in common, that is, they are often uncontrolled in unexplored conditions.

For example, a wizard with "Parseltongue" can understand the language of snakes, but it is difficult to speak snake language at ordinary times, let alone communicate with snakes, unless the snake can understand human speech.

However, when the wizard himself is very excited, such as when he encounters a life-threatening danger, he will subconsciously say one or two snake words.

For "sight", the impact of emotional and mental fluctuations will be even stronger.

In addition, the collection of some information is equally important, whether this collection is conscious or unconscious.

In other words, on the basis of having a certain amount of information reserves, the owner of "Vision" will probably be able to trigger this prophecy talent more easily when he suffers strong mental stimulation.

The reason why I only say "probably" is because there is no description of this in the books related to prophecy magic, but Amon summarized it based on some examples recorded in the book.

For example, Trelawny's "Savior" prophecy, Amon speculated that it might be due to the general environment of the magic war at that time, as well as Trelawney's own difficult mood of wandering for a long time, and the need to obtain a stable job or shelter. Under the influence of various factors such as urgent desire, the "horizon" is triggered.

Of course, it may also be spurred by Trelawny's uneasiness about interviewing in front of the greatest wizard of our time and his strong desire to show his worth.

At the same time, this can also well explain why Amon has never had a prophecy after awakening his "sight", even a fleeting scene!

More often than not, it was a "flash of inspiration" when studying magic.

After all, Amon's exposure to the external environment is extremely limited, and it is difficult for him to have strong emotions...

'Lockhart' looked at Trelawney who was lying on the chair, and suddenly the corners of his mouth turned up in a strange arc, and he slowly opened his left hand, revealing what was inside - a small translucent tube with twelve rings. insect.

Then the little bug turned into a shimmer of light and got into Trelawny's body in the blink of an eye.

Then 'Lockhart' stood up and left the office leisurely.

······

Shortly after Lockhart left, Trelawney was left alone in the office. Trelawney, who was leaning on his chair, slowly woke up.

She moved her body first, sat upright in the chair, and slowly narrowed her eyes.

Then the eyes gradually opened wider to accommodate more things.

He immediately closed his eyes again, raised his hand and took off the old-fashioned big glasses, stroked his eyeballs, and wiped away the traces of blood and tears on both sides of his cheeks.

Then he opened his eyes again, put on his glasses again, and slowly raised the corners of his mouth.

'Trelawny' looked at the dim environment around him with his eyes that had just been bitten back before, and found that even if he was wearing glasses, his field of vision seemed to be covered with a veil, and everything he saw was indistinct. .

"So this is what it feels like to have divination backfired?" 'Trelawney' said with great interest, unabashedly using a tone that was completely unfit for Trelawney.

Then he adjusted his pair of reading glasses, turned around and walked out the door.

She was going to Gringotts to collect the legacy of the Trelawny family.

Now the Trelawney family can almost be regarded as existing in name only. All the family properties have been sold off, and the inheritance is stored in Gringotts.

This is actually the current situation in the magic world today. Many wizard families that still call themselves families only have two or three big cats and kittens left. From this, we can also see the degree of decline of the magic world.

As for why the office fireplace is not used and the floo network is used to go to Diagon Alley, it is because usually the fireplace in Hogwarts is not connected to the floo network, so 'Trelawny' can only go to Hogmore first. Tokumura, use Apparition again to go to Diagon Alley.

······

Gringotts is a tall white building.

'Trelawny' carried a suitcase and came to the shiny bronze door of this building. The goblin guard wearing scarlet and gold uniforms standing at the door bowed to her.

This goblin guard looks only slightly larger than a house elf, with dark skin, long fingers and legs, and a hemispherical head.

This was the first time 'Trelawny' had seen a goblin, and it was also the first time she had come to Gringotts. In addition, she was about to receive the inheritance from the Trelawney family, so she was very excited.

She walked into the bronze door with an obvious smile on her lips, and then saw a silver door engraved with text.

'Trelawney' paused slightly, looking at the sentence warning the thief, the corners of his mouth raised even more.

After entering the silver door, you are in a spacious marble hall, where about a hundred goblins sit behind a long counter and make notes in a large ledger.

Some are using scales to weigh coins, while others are using eyepieces to detect gems.

'Trelawney' walked leisurely to the counter and knocked on the countertop, attracting the attention of a goblin.

The goblin carefully observed Trelawny's robe which was not gorgeous but rather dirty and old-fashioned, and asked her:

"Ma'am, how can I help you?"

"777 Treasure House, get some things." 'Trelawney' said concisely and clearly.

Immediately, the goblin's expression remained unchanged, but his tone seemed to be somewhat reluctant as he said:

"Well, ma'am, if you insist, do you have your keys?"

'Trelawny' had already taken out the key, which had been kept close to him before.

The goblin took Trelawny through one of the countless doors in the hall, then got on the cart and walked along the twists and turns of the maze-like stone corridor, blowing the howling cold wind, and passed a The underground lake came to the mountain stream.

'Trelawney' turned around and glanced behind him. The flames at the end of the passage just now made him suddenly feel something.

If it weren't for the fact that I could only deeply parasitize one person at this stage, it would definitely be very interesting to experience the feeling of parasitizing a fire dragon.

"Madam?" The goblin saw Trelawny observing the passage behind and immediately called out vigilantly.

'Trelawney' looked back with a normal smile and said:

"It's nothing. It's just my first time riding such an exciting and interesting means of transportation. I find it very interesting."

"Okay..." The goblin replied without any doubt, but subconsciously speeded up his movements and opened the vault door.

Then he moved his body, indicating that 'Trelawney' could take the things.

'Trelawney' walked into the vault leisurely and looked around.

I found that the Trelawney family's treasury was actually very tidy - books were neatly arranged in rows on the bookshelves, and magical items used for divination, such as crystal balls, tarot cards, charms, etc., were placed in separate categories. on the shelf.

Not as messy as Trelawney's office!

'Trelawney' came closer and found that the things on the shelf had not been moved for a long time, which meant that Trelawny had not been here for a long time.

In fact, Amon, who had gained Trelawney's memories, could understand this.

Because Trelawney's magic talent is very poor - even if he awakens a special talent, it does not mean that he is a magic genius. If it is very difficult for a wizard to practice a floating spell, then there is no need to develop his own special talent. , developing talents also requires a magic foundation!

Moreover, during the period of his adulthood when his magic power increased rapidly, Trelawney had been wandering and had no time to study and study.

And she herself lacks self-awareness, hoping to get a "matching" job by relying on the reputation of her ancestors, and has not deepened her awareness.

Finally, Cassandra Trelawney's bloodline has actually been extremely diluted to her generation - according to incomplete but documented examples, magical talent is inseparable from bloodline, just like It is the same magical ability of magical creatures. Slytherin and Voldemort also took advantage of this when they practiced sixth-level transformation.

Therefore, based on the above factors, Trelawny's "sight" talent was extremely poorly developed, and even relying on divination methods to make predictions would sometimes fail.

Under such circumstances, the experience and inheritance of the Trelawney family's ancestors can only gather dust in the treasury.

However, looking at it on the other hand, even if Trelawny's talent was so poorly developed, he still predicted several major events, which is enough to prove the power of the "sight" talent, which is different from the power of intuition.
