Hogwarts Rising Again

Chapter 498 Underage Magic
"Compared with the magic knowledge we are learning a thousand years ago, it feels like a minor."

Arnock continued walking towards the Forbidden Forest.

"Underage?"

Maureen also followed.

"Yes, the magic of our era belongs to minors, and the magic of those adults is sealed by stone arches. This is the same as people. Underage children are young, but full of vigor, and have more choices and hopes ...and the world of adults is too cruel, always full of all kinds of unspeakable desires, contradictions and disputes, so I still prefer the magic of minors."

Anok said with a smile.

Maureen nodded half-understood. He didn't quite understand the thoughts of adults, but he seemed to understand a little more when he thought of Floyd hiding from the world in order to shoulder his own responsibilities and protect his wife and children.

The world of adults is indeed complicated, it is better to be a child.

"So the abyss area you mentioned just now refers to—"

"It is one of the magic rules, but it is not sealed by the stone arch, but is independently attached to the other side of this world."

"the other side?"

"Everything has two sides. We live on the front side of this world, and naturally there are people living on the back side of this world, understand?"

Mo Lin was very surprised, this was the first time he had heard of this statement.

"So those—the people and monsters I saw in the abyss are all people living in the backside?" Mo Lin asked.

He tried to understand what the so-called back side meant, underground or otherwise, but found he couldn't imagine it.

"Yes, the abyss and our world are interdependent, but it is also a place of magic, with its own magic rules, just like the world in the painting, it is also dependent on us." Anok said.

Mo Lin remembered the special shovel of the so-called Invincible Universal Access just now. Could it be that Arnock used that shovel to dig through the world?
Or that the shovel is like Hufflepuff's Room of Requirement, giving them a gateway into other magical places?

"Magic is far from being as simple as you imagine. Many special magics will never be experienced by many people in their lifetime. As I said, all magic has been underage since the Stone Arch was sealed for thousands of years. What do you think? The worldview needs to be gradually expanded.”

The two of them had reached the edge of the Forbidden Forest. The trees in the Forbidden Forest were lush and verdant and plunged into the sky. Birdsong echoed in the forest, and various strange magical creatures were making strange calls.

At this time, there was a loud noise in the distance. Molin looked back and found that people from the Ministry of Magic had arrived and were talking to Principal McGonagall. Several people had already rushed into the castle, and some people ran away. Near the Stone Arch.

"I'll explain everything to them. You don't need to worry, and you don't need to talk too much. Let's get that guy from the Forbidden Forest back into the Rubik's Cube." Anok walked into the Forbidden Forest.

With Anok around, Mo Lin didn't worry that he would be attacked by any monsters in the Forbidden Forest. As long as he followed Anok obediently, those dangerous creatures would avoid him.

The process of finding monsters is not complicated. After walking in the Forbidden Forest for a short time, Arnock found a relatively open place, took out the Rubik's Cube of the Brear family guarded by the centaur, and tapped the black one with his magic wand lightly. Rubik's Cube.

Not long after, a strange wind suddenly swept through the woods, the leaves were rustling, and many birds flew into the sky in panic.

A stream of smoke diffused from the depths of the Forbidden Forest, and the overwhelming smoke made the entire forest a bit gloomy.

Mo Lin took out his wand, no matter what, last time he and An Ran were chased badly by this guy in the Forbidden Forest, it's better to be more cautious.

The strange man with the mark of the Blier family on his forehead condensed out of the smoke, staring closely at the black cube in Arnock's hand.

"Give it back."

A dry and hoarse voice came from the smoke monster's mouth.

"It's over, Briar." Arnock opened the box of the Black Rubik's Cube a little.

"Blier?" Maureen looked at the smoke monster in surprise.

"It's not over yet—I can feel that the sealed magic rules have been opened, and what was supposed to happen has finally happened—" the smoke monster said in a low voice.

"We will take care of the rest. Your descendants have also awakened their abilities, so you don't need to destroy it anymore," Anok said.

The weirdo was silent for a moment, and then scattered into a pile of smoke again.

Arnock swung his wand, and a blue wind rolled up. The wind fell on the smoke all at once, and the smoke made a sharp whistling, and rushed into the black cube.

"Arnock, this smoky man—is it Blier?" Maureen asked puzzled.

"He is a kind of guardian magic sealed in the Black Rubik's Cube by the ancestors of twelve families. It can be simply understood as their magical consciousness, but it has been stripped out. When the Black Rubik's Cube is in danger, he will look for his own. Future generations, let them prevent the danger from happening."

Arnock closed the Black Rubik's Cube and put it back in his pocket.

"So he arrested An Ran that day just to remind An Ran to stop all this?" Mo Lin asked suspiciously.

"Yes, making all kinds of huge roaring noises, making a deep pit in the woods, and at the bottom of the deep pit there is a ball that can only be condensed by a Loken lodestone—this is all the clues he left for you, He's going to draw you in and make you think of Lucas."

Lucas has the Loken lodestone in his hand, which will bring a very serious disaster every time. The smoke monster condensed by Blier is just to simulate Lucas' behavior.

Arnock explained, and said with some regret: "But obviously, what he did was a bit futile. No one in the school knows about it, except maybe you can think of the Loken magnet, but you can't do anything about it."

"Is that so?"

Mo Lin felt it was a little weird. On the night when An Ran was taken away, he was still worried about An Ran and rushed into the Forbidden Forest like a headless chicken to rescue her.It's a pity that they didn't want to hurt An Ran at all, but he thought too much.

"He can actually show up and explain the problem directly, and we don't need to be misunderstood by us," Mo Lin said.

"He can't explain clearly. A magic consciousness can't do too many things. In addition, the secret of the stone arch seal is too dangerous, let alone say it casually. It can only be used to guide you in this way. Unfortunately, at that time I No, I couldn't help in time."

"Professor Binns is also at school, why didn't he find out about this?" Morin asked puzzled.

"Maybe he knew, but he didn't say anything. I think he should have been investigating on his own since the summer vacation. He only tracked down Payngade's whereabouts a while ago, so he left the school to arrest him. Unfortunately, he ignored Helena and was caught instead. Trapped." Anok guessed.

Maureen suddenly realized, and he remembered the last time in the Muggle office building, when Lucas opened a crack of the Black Rubik's Cube, and then there was a voice inside telling him how to deal with the Loken lodestone, and at that time, he Only then did I know that the Loken lodestone needs to be cracked with lightning magic.

In this way, not all the consciousness of the seal in the Black Rubik's Cube has been released. Maybe the ancestors of the Blier family were just accidentally released by Lucas and the old witch, but the truth about the horse people in the Forbidden Forest is lost in history. That's why I don't believe the words of the smoke monster.
