Hogwarts: I'm really not the third Dark Lord

Chapter 161 The Price of Resurrection

Morissa is resurrected!

The girl has long golden hair as bright as the sun, a black and white dress, and holds a broom in her hand - just like when they first met.

"Hey! Good afternoon, Reimu."

Hakurei Reimu choked up and tears fell down: "Long time no see, Morissa."

"Eh? Didn't we just meet yesterday?"

Morissa scratched her hair and quickly put her doubts behind her: "Don't cry Reimu, I will take you to a good place today."

"Yes!" Reimu Hakurei hurriedly wiped away her tears and nodded heavily.

……

In Kyubey's eyes, what came out of the door was an out-and-out monster.

Her hair, as lifeless as dry straw, was scattered messily on the back of her head.The skin showed a festering purple color, and something was vaguely crawling underneath.

His eyes were pitch black, with a faint flash of red light visible in his pupils.

Lingmeng's eyes were blank, and he walked towards the monster step by step. The monster opened its mouth, revealing its sharp teeth, and saliva dripped down...

"What the hell is that?"

Everything that happened now was beyond Kyubey's cognition. It quietly hid in the dark and watched with cold eyes.

Just when Reimu was about to hold the monster's hand, a voice came.

"Be careful, Professor!"

A beam of light emitted from nowhere hit the monster. The monster was hit so hard that it backed away and let out an angry roar.

Jerry got up from the ground, his memory still stuck in the moment before he fell into coma.

Seeing Hakurei Reimu walking towards a monster without any defense, he immediately took action without hesitation.

"What have you done!"

Unexpectedly, Reimu became extremely angry and raised his hand to release a talisman.

There was a faint golden light on the talisman, which shot directly towards Jerry.

Jerry hurriedly turned a stone into a shield and blocked it in front of him. The shield was broken in an instant, which surprised Jerry. He connected with his wand and transformed several shields in front of him.

Fortunately, the secret room is now in ruins and there is no shortage of materials for transformation.

After the talisman broke seven shields one after another, the golden light on it dissipated and fell lightly to the ground.

"You're quite capable, Jerry." Lingmeng sneered and took out a red and white yin-yang jade from his sleeve.

"Ghost and God Yin Yang Jade——"

"Wait!" Jerry shouted hurriedly, "Professor, please wake up and don't be confused by the monster!"

In his opinion, there is only one reason for Reimu's abnormal behavior now, and that is that he was caught in a monster's illusion!

Unexpectedly, this made Reimu even more angry.

"Huh? Monster? Is that what you said about your master?"

"master?"

Jerry was stunned for a moment and saw the Yin Yang Jade suddenly swelled in Ling Meng's hands.

It grew bigger and bigger like a snowball until it reached the height of a person.

"Let me teach Shasha a lesson for you, this unfilial disciple..."

Midway through her words, Reimu suddenly stopped, and blood began to flow from the corners of her mouth.

It started out as just a line, and after a few seconds, it spewed out like a waterfall.

She looked down in disbelief, and saw a hand passing through her chest, holding a beating heart in her hand.

"Sasha, you..."

His heart was violently crushed, and Ling Meng felt as if he had been struck by lightning.

"why……"

In her eyes, the body of the girl who was full of energy just now quickly decomposed and finally turned into a monster.

"It hurts... I feel so much pain... Reimu... why do you want to wake me up... why do you want me to bear this pain..."

"So that's how it is..."

Reimu closed her eyes.

Resurrecting the dead was just her wishful thinking from the beginning.

The boundary between the living and the dead has been so clear from the beginning.

Those who attempt to cross this boundary will pay a heavy price.

This is what grandma has already told her.

But... I am really unwilling to do so!

I want to be with Morissa all the time. I want to go see the cherry blossoms on Mount Fuji in April with her, roll in the lavender fields in Provence, and bathe in the starry sky in the crater of Oregon...

All of this, with the death of that person, became an unattainable dream.

Now, Reimu finally understands that forcibly bringing the undead back to the living world is no different from living beings entering the underworld. It is a huge torture for them.

What I have been thinking about all my life is such a meaningless thing.

It's ridiculous enough.

"Am I going to die?" Ling dreamed, surprisingly not feeling scared.

She glanced at Jerry, who stopped in front of the unconscious Erin, Harry, Hermione, and Penello, and used his wand to support a faint light shield.

At this time, he seemed to be shocked by what happened before him, and then showed a sad look.

"Sorry for causing you a lot of trouble..."

As her lips moved, Jerry seemed to understand what she meant and put down the wand blankly.

Miles deep underground, the wind suddenly picked up.

The blood-stained miko's uniform was making a rustling sound, and her long black hair was flying high behind her head.

Powerful magic power that had never been seen before poured out like nothing, and the air seemed to become stagnant.

Jerry had only seen such coercion from Dumbledore.

The Yin-Yang Jade split into nine parts behind Lingmeng and quickly rotated around her.

"Damn it! This is the trick!"

Kyubey was shocked and subconsciously wanted to run away.

The witch in front of him brought back painful memories from hundreds of years ago.

That's how the witch sealed it back then.

"Dreams are born!

Infinite light emitted from Reimu's body, and there seemed to be an extra sun under the ground.

Under this dazzling light, Jerry had to close his eyes.

After an unknown amount of time, when he opened his eyes again, he found that the secret room had become completely empty. No matter Reimu, Morissa or Kyubey, they were all gone.

Jerry sat on the ground, in a state of great sadness.

He was not stupid, and he naturally realized that Reimu's role in this series of events was not a good person in the true sense.

But her love and care for herself were not false.

Maybe there was something about Morissa in it, but Jerry really regarded her as his own relative.

Now Reimu used his last strength to take away Morissa and Kyubey.

Jerry didn't want to know where they had gone...or rather, he still had a fantasy that they could finally live together in another world.

In that world, they can enjoy the cherry blossoms together, roll in the lavender fields, or bathe in the starlight, cuddling together and telling each other how they miss each other.

"You must be happy, in that carefree Fantasyland."

……

……

The seven gems left by Kyubey became dimmed after Kyubey left.

At this time, it suddenly glowed slightly.

A vortex appeared in the air.

The gods finally noticed the world that suddenly appeared in their eyes, and couldn't wait to extend their tentacles.

A guy with a pair of white wings under his ribs and a proud face walked out of the whirlpool.

"Praise the Holy Lord!"

At a glance, he saw Jerry sitting on the ground with his eyes blank.

"Mortal, you..."

[Touch of the Abyss (Passive): When someone stares at you for more than a certain period of time, the abyss will also stare at him. 】

The angel's eyeballs suddenly exploded and he let out an extremely miserable wail.

His wings were infected by the darkness that had climbed up without knowing when, and the originally shining golden feathers turned into wriggling tentacles.

The next moment, golden blood flowed out of his seven orifices at the same time, and his whole body exploded into a ball of black mist.

There were countless eyes looking over.

"That's...the power of the abyss..."

"The Lord of Fear..."

"No... He has already lost his self-awareness and fell into a deep sleep..."

"...Perhaps, Prince of the Abyss..."

"You mean, that prophecy..."

"..."

"..."

At this moment, several great wills reached a certain consensus and withdrew their sight.

Jerry ignored the guy who suddenly appeared and died inexplicably. He was very tired now and just wanted to have a good sleep.

……

……

When Jerry opened his eyes, the first thing that appeared in front of him were two pieces of glowing blue glass.

"you're awake?"

Dumbledore stood up straight. Just now he seemed to be leaning down to observe Jerry carefully.

Jerry looked around and found that he was the only one in the ward.

"Where's Erin?"

"Don't worry, the child is fine." Dumbledore said briskly, "In fact, in this adventure of yours, except for Professor Hakurei who is missing, everyone else is intact."

"Miss Penello and Miss Granger woke up midway. They were the ones who brought you back. Harry's soul seems to have been traumatized in some way. The senior physician at St. Mungo's is treating him, Miss Diana. I also woke up not long ago..."

Dumbledore kept talking, and while Jerry felt relieved, his heart couldn't help but twitch when he heard Reimu's name again.

Seeing this, Dumbledore's expression turned serious.

"I heard from Granger that you stayed with Professor Boli all the way. Can you tell me where Professor Boli went?"

"Professor Boli...is gone." It was a simple sentence, but Jerry found it difficult to say it.

"Leave? Has she left Hogwarts?"

Dumbledore still hadn't reacted.

"I went to a very far away place..."

"..."

Dumbledore seemed to understand something and silently lowered his eyes.

In fact, there was already a storm in his heart.

Hakurei Reimu's strength is not much worse than him or Voldemort in his heyday.

As a miko, her power attribute is also more focused on destroying evil and dispelling demons.

In other words, Voldemort's curse on the Defense Against the Dark Arts course would be difficult to take effect on her.

Besides curses, what else in this wizarding world could threaten such a powerful witch?

"Mr. Yoder, I hope you can tell the details of this incident."

Jerry naturally wouldn't refuse. It just so happened that he also had a lot to ask Dumbledore.

Jerry started from the story about Kyubey told by Reimu Hakurei, then he discovered that something was not right with Harry and the others, and then Hermione discovered the secret of the Chamber of Secrets. After they went to the Chamber of Secrets, they found that Riddle used a diary. Ben takes control of Penelo…

"It's amazing." Dumbledore said softly, "Tom Riddle, he is probably the best Hogwarts student I have ever seen -" he glanced at Jerry, "except maybe you."

"After graduating from Hogwarts, Riddle disappeared for a long time. He spent this time traveling around, traveling to all corners of the world... hanging out with the most evil guys in the wizarding world, and using many dangerous methods on himself. He underwent a magical transformation and finally reappeared as Voldemort. It was difficult for people to recognize him, and almost no one connected him with the smart and handsome boy student union president who had studied here..."

"I found out his identity just by relying on clues. You are better than I thought, Jerry..."

Jerry interrupted him directly: "Do you know Kyubey? Professor."

Dumbledore nodded: "I've heard of it, but I don't know much about it."

"Just like the Department of Mysteries of the British Ministry of Magic, there is a similar institution in Japan that specializes in the study of those inexplicable magical props. This kind of magic cannot be taken away, cannot be copied, cannot be controlled... just like being born with it. ,Confusing……"

"Some people even think that this is a creation of the gods..."

"What is the goal of Kyubey sharing his power with Harry and the others?" Jerry asked.

"I can only guess, Jerry... Believe me, I am as ignorant as you are about God's creation."

"It has been recorded in many ancient documents: the power of wizards comes from subspace, and the power of subspace comes from emotions."

"A lot of evidence shows that wizards in ancient times were much more powerful than they are now. We can reasonably guess that wizards in ancient times were closer to the subspace than modern wizards."

"Later, due to some changes, the subspace was far away from the planet. It became difficult for wizards to communicate with the subspace, and their strength declined seriously..."

"Of course, these are all guesses. But Kyubey's efforts to collect the power of seven emotions reminds me of a kind of magic called ritual magic."

"Ritual magic is a special type of magic popular in Africa and the Middle East that uses specific dance moves and sacrifices to gain power from the gods."

"But the gods have never responded to them. Everyone thinks it is a funny trick."

"Now it seems that it may be that the connection between the subspace and this world has weakened, which is why they are unable to communicate with the gods... Kyubey's ritual magic is obviously much better than theirs, and maybe they can really reconnect with the gods."

"Is it a god..."

Jerry inexplicably thought of the angel-looking guy who appeared at the last moment.

If that was a god, it would be too weak.

"In fact," Dumbledore looked grim, "I suspect it has succeeded. The power of the same magic I have released now is one-tenth more powerful than before. Subspace is coming to the earth again."

Jerry thought of Reimu again inexplicably.

If she wants to resurrect Morissa from the God of Death, she must first contact the God of Death.

It is not difficult to understand that she released Kyubey from the seal and even secretly supported Kyubey's behavior.
