Chapter 1753: Aiwen's Guess
Squibs?
A Ravenclaw Squib?
This Squib is a descendant of the pure Ravenclaw family, and appeared thousands of years ago when the bloodline was very pure.
This kind of thing, no matter how you think about it, is incredible.
There is reliable data that the frequency of Squibs has increased over the centuries, mainly due to the intermarriage between wizards and Muggles, and the fusion of bloodlines, which is often used as an example in books or magical studies about "purebloods".
In the Black family's library, Aven found many books on such magic, which he read as a pastime.
Although the assertions that pure-blood wizards are superior are worthless, the data itself does not lie, and the frequency of Squibs does have to do with the degree of blood purity of both parents, both parents are wizards, and the bloodline is pure, the more likely it is that the child is a wizard. It can be inferred that in the era of a thousand years ago, a direct descendant of a wizarding family like Ravenclaw would actually be a squib, and the probability of such a thing is undoubtedly as low as a comet hitting the earth.
"Wait, if this young master Dalyan isn't a Squib......," Evan thought, "then he can't be an Obscurity, right?!"
Compared to the fact that he is a squib, this reason seems to be more believable and acceptable.
Darien Ravenclaw is not a squib, but silent!
It's not that he doesn't have magical powers, his magic is just curbed, or parasitized by some kind of dark magical power, making him lose his ability to cast spells. Although the number of Silent Ran is just as rare, even less than that of a Squib, it is obviously more credible than being a Squib, given Dalyan's status.
Thinking along this line, what could be the reason why Dalyan became obscure?
Could it be that someone mistreated him and caused him to lose control of his magical powers?
Or was he bewitched by an evil god and parasitized by the magical power of darkness?
Considering that the Death's Door was located in the middle of the lake next to the castle, where the world of the evil gods was connected, Evan thought the second possibility was very likely.
With the clues he found so far, he quickly made up a story in his mind: the original guardians sealed the door of death and the evil gods inside the door, and the seal they left behind was very strong, but as time passed, the power of the seal became weaker and weaker, and the spirit of the evil god gradually infiltrated the real world from the alien dimension.
By some coincidence, it bewitched the young Dalyan, parasitized him in his heart, and then used Dalyan to perform evil dark magic, and gradually affected the wizards of the entire Ravenclaw family, causing them to lose their minds and open the door to death, leading to their final destruction......
As for why it was destruction, rather than an evil god, it was most likely related to the magic left in the castle by the ancestors of the Ravenclaw family.
The castle, when it was still intact, had a powerful guardian magic in its overall structure and interior settings.
As the ghost Marcus said, the final designer arranged the magic inside the castle, connecting it with the five towers on the periphery and the central tower, the "Top of the Stars", as a meeting point, and the internal structure of the castle was also built for this magic, and many passages were restricted to ensure the integrity of the spell runes.
Although the light and shadow did not show this, on the remaining stone walls of the castle, Aven still found some traces, some ancient magic script that was no longer recognizable, drawn by gold threads, and now only faint traces of the past could be seen, but it did exist, and these traces were part of magic.
This proves that the castle was indeed filled with powerful magic, not the magic that was arranged with the wave of a wand, but a powerful spell left over from ancient alchemy, left by the ancestors of Ravenclaw or the original Guardians, and triggered to control it when the door of death was opened.
Although there were still some things that Evan couldn't explain, such as how this powerful magic worked, and what happened on the day the door was opened, things were now starting to outline compared to the initial confusion.
Of course, these are all Evan guesses, but they are very likely.
This conjecture explained a lot of things that he had thought were strange before, such as why the ghost Marcus couldn't see the traces of the Black Witch's spell at the door of death in the center of the lake, why he didn't seem to notice the strange statues under the garden until Aven's reminder, and how difficult it was to recall about Master Dalyan, as if there was a force in the dark that prevented him from remembering.
If these were all influenced by the dark magic of Dalyan himself, then there would be nothing surprising.
Evan pondered, scrutinizing the stone carvings below, looking for clues that might have been left behind.
To date, these stone carvings are the only ones in the castle that are directly related to Dalyan Ravenclaw.
Perhaps it was carved by him in the process of being parasitized or bewitched by the evil gods, after all, the loss of reason is a gradual process, and it cannot be achieved overnight.
Through the huge hanging window, Ewen carefully observed that most of the statues on the outside of the garden near the banquet hall were extremely abstract and difficult to describe, or monsters such as Medusa that appeared in myths and legends, and vaguely gave him a sense of familiarity.
It's like the evil god creation he saw in the centaur temple, but there are many differences, and there is an inexplicable sense of disobedience.
As we approached the "Top of the Stars", the central tower of the castle, the sense of disobedience on the statue began to grow stronger and stronger.
They seem to become more abstract, but this abstraction is not as untraceable as it was at first, but gradually begins to have some kind of pattern.
What the law is, Evan can't say, but he has such a feeling.
Also, the aura of the evil god on the statue is getting stronger and stronger!
Later on, the stronger Dalyan became, the weaker his control over himself became, all of which was reflected in the statues in the garden.
"These statues must have something to do with an evil god, some kind of evil god creation!" Evan could be sure.
But it wasn't the evil god he was familiar with, but ......
Suddenly, as if sensing something, his gaze quickly passed through the hollowed-out hanging windows and the countless statues in the garden, and finally landed on the humanoid statue that had been pushed up to the nearest central tower, which itself was badly damaged and weathered, but could vaguely see the old appearance in the light and shadow of magic.
From the back, it looks a bit like a Dementor!
That's right, Dementors, the guards of the Azkaban Wizard Prison!
These evil creatures created by the dastardly Helbo, Aven is familiar with them!
Even if it wasn't very clear from that angle, he could be sure it was a Dementor!
In other words, the aura of the evil god that appears here is the evil god transformed by the despicable Helbo.
Inside the Death's Door is the space where the dastardly Helpo is!
Wait, how is this possible?!
