HP Approaches the Magical World

"I want to give it to a special person, or rather, not a person."

Jon raised his eyes: "This gift is for the ghost of our academy, who used to be a monk."

"Oh, you mean Renciro."

This is the advantage of living for a long time. No matter where they are, she knows a little bit, at least she has heard of it.

As a wizard who "defected" from the Holy See, the fat monk Renziro was very low-key, which became more prominent after he became a Hufflepuff. In fact, except for the living people and the current ghosts, Few know of the past that belongs to the Fat Friar.

This is a secret, even among the ghosts, only a few ghosts know his identity, and others don't even know his name.

"He used to be a monk of the Holy See, but he was an undercover agent sent by the wizard to the Holy See... You know the grievances between the wizard and the Holy See, I think you should have received education in this area."

After getting Jon's affirmation, Perenal continued: "After he was discovered in the Wizarding War and fled back to Hogwarts, he stayed in Hogwarts completely. And he only met...once?"

But this is not an important matter. Perenal took another pocket watch with a cross engraved on it. This pocket watch is quite special and looks transparent.

"The material of this watch is..." Perenal glanced at Jon's line of sight, unavoidably puzzled: "Can you see this watch?"

"Of course, I'm still wondering why this watch is transparent...is it made of crystal?"

Jon thought this watch was very suitable, and Perenal's recommendation also gave him a lot of confidence. He thought the fat monk would like this gift very much.

"This watch is not made of crystal. It is made of the bones and feathers of thestrals. Even here, there is only such a watch."

"That should be expensive, right?" Jon said shyly, "I didn't bring that much money."

"No, you don't need money. It's a kind of fate that you can come in. Besides, he and I are not short of money in the first place, so this should be regarded as a gift for you."

For some reason, Jon felt that the witch in front of him suddenly became enthusiastic. Of course, he was also very enthusiastic before, but now he was even more enthusiastic, which made Jon a little confused.

But soon Jon knew why, because Perenal asked him a question.

...

After the transparent watch was wrapped by magic power and put into a box, the witch suddenly asked.

"Jon, do you know what death is?"

"What?"

Jon froze for a moment, eyes puzzled.

"It's death, the real death, if you have to use something to describe it, I think it should be a kind of...experience, just like you know the appearance of fire when you see fire, and know the fragrance of flowers when you smell it , any intelligent life will always understand the meaning of death for a moment.

It's as if you just lost someone very important, and this understanding may come from any time, at a certain moment when that person is gone, you suddenly understand what death is all about.

Even, you have your own personal experience to know the meaning of death. "

"tell me,

Have you ever had any related experience? "

Jon was silent, and finally nodded.

It doesn't make sense for him to deny this kind of thing, because he just saw thestrals.

Even if that magical creature died, its essence did not completely dissipate.

Only those who have experienced death can see thestrals.

Perenal smiled, as if her thoughts had been affirmed, she no longer stared at Jon, but turned her gaze to the door, a few blocks away, the students who were rushing back to school He and other walking wizards came and went in a hurry, not realizing that someone was watching them secretly.

"It's a lucky thing that you have experienced death and not yet died."

The witch's voice suddenly became a little hoarse: "After experiencing such a thing, I think you should understand how fragile life is in this world."

"For this world, no matter how long life is, it is insignificant. In the face of death, when you really see the appearance of death, you will know your helplessness and weakness, so you can see the person in the darkness. true self."

It's like seeing your own reflection in the water, and it's an extremely distorted reflection.

The voice in Jon's ear suddenly became blurred, but strangely, he could still hear Perenal's voice clearly, and he could even feel the witch's emotions.

Sadness and relief coexist here, forming a wonderful balance.

And then he realized that the emotion he had been brought into Perenal resonated with.

This kind of resonance is not common, but it is not rare. Many powerful wizards can do this. After all, sometimes things that cannot be understood often appear. When Helga took him to see the origin of the world , that is a superlative emotional resonance.

Perenal was not malicious, and Jon could feel the sense of reality conveyed by her emotions in resonance, so he was even more surprised.

It's just the first time we met, how can you trust him so much?

If you...

Jon instantly emptied his cranky thoughts. Although emotional resonance is transmitted in one direction, no one knows what special abilities a witch like Perenal has, and I really feel sorry for others' trust if I think so.

He began to concentrate, listening to Perenal's words.

She said that "death" is a truth that comes with time. No matter how powerful a wizard or magic is, it is difficult to avoid the erosion of death unless it has the power to resist time.

That's why in the age of gods, such a creed was passed down by the followers of the gods.

"All things will wither eventually, only those who are protected by the gods can have eternal life."

For some reason, this sentence appeared in Jon's mind out of thin air, and then he whispered it out.

"Yes, but even the gods have not succeeded in getting rid of the consequences of demise, which is the fate of life."

Perenal said appreciatively that she likes the children of the ancient family. There is no need to explain anything in detail. Their family has a long history and they know at least a little bit about everything.

"In order to avoid the coming of death, the wizards and the followers of the Holy See have made countless efforts and attempts, and even done many evil things. Everything they did was just to survive."

The witch said quietly:

"But is it really a good thing to survive?"
