Chapter 173: The current child is really realistic
"The Elder Fuþark, one of the most famous ancient runic scripts. The ancient runi script, also known as the Devil's script, is the basis for most of the current mainstream spells. The pronunciation of Fuþark also comes from the first six runi letters: feoh, your, thorn, ansur, rad and ken. ”
Grindelwald waved his hand, and most of the magical characters in mid-air were hidden, leaving only the six most legible characters.
According to ancient documents in the wizarding world, the ancient rune script is not the mystery of the universe that Muggles know as they are known in Norse mythology and legends, when Odin hung himself upside down on the World Tree and pondered for nine days and nights.
In fact, the word "Rune" – which originally means "whisper of secrets" – represents the mystical power that was embodied by the ancient wizards who listened to and perceived the sounds of nature.
In that ancient dark period when Ru Mao drank blood, neither magic spells nor wand craftsmanship were as developed as they are today, and the appearance of the ancient runi script greatly improved the direct use of spiritual power by wizards, giving humans the ability to compete head-on with other intelligent magic species.
However, today, after several major social changes, most of the ancient runi script has been blurred and disappeared, and modern wizards can only use the remnants of magical objects and ancient books to try to restore some fragmented pronunciation and original meaning, even if it is difficult to do it directly.
"Ancient rune, isn't that an extinct alphabet, no matter how brilliant it once was, it's only a thing of the past, and if it's really as powerful as you say, why haven't I ever heard of a modern wizard who is good at casting spells in rune. ”
Elena raised an eyebrow, looking disinterested.
Because, if Elena remembers correctly, by the time she reaches the third year, Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry should also open the [Ancient Rune] elective. However, judging from the original book, it seems to be a marginal discipline similar to magical archaeology, and it does not show anything very special.
Even according to Grindelwald, learning the ancient Forsak language would be very helpful for the study of spells, but it should be quite limited at best, at best it is only used to manifest itself in front of people, just like those who used oracle bone to write college entrance examination essays in previous lives.
"No, although most of the ancient Phrsak system has been discontinued, there are still some bits and pieces of alphabet meanings and pronunciations that have been recorded, and I happen to have a complete lineage of several of them. ”
Glancing at the disapproving little silver-haired witch, Grindelwald smiled proudly.
As the first Dark Lord who once ruled the entire wizarding world by just one step, Grindelwald's research and yearning for magic was much more comprehensive than Voldemort's system, and when wealth, fame, and power were all at his fingertips, knowledge and ideals became the old man's favorite things back then.
In his heyday, Grindelwald didn't even need to personally explore the lost scriptures, but only a little bit of a will, and countless fanatical "saints (Grindelwald's supporters)" would take the initiative to bring the knowledge of the magic scripts left around the world to Newmengard Castle and respectfully present it to him.
"Think about it, you can learn the spells in the textbook at any time. But without this castle there is a second person who can teach you the whole thing—for there is probably no second wizard in the wizarding world today who is as fluent in ancient Fersak as I am, not even Nicol Lemay and Albus Dumbledore. ”
Grindelwald shook his index finger at Elena, his tone tinged with a strong sense of seduction.
"Sounds great, but you still haven't answered my previous question. ”
Elena shrugged her shoulders and simply cut to the heart of the matter, "After learning Gufsak, in addition to seeing a wider range of things, what other can I get that can be quantified - such as being able to master a few new spells, or how many times more powerful spells can be made, or something else. ”
Truth be told, Elena wasn't particularly interested in Grindelwald's long history of the rise of wizards, and as a pragmatist through and through, theories that could not be translated into practical results and power, no matter how precious and unique, were just a flash in the pan.
"How many new spells have you mastered?"
Hearing Elena's words, Grindelwald couldn't help but grin, as if he had heard something particularly funny, "Don't you understand? Ancient runes are the cornerstone of most modern spells, and mastering them means that you are qualified to create spells." ”
"I don't want to create new spells, I just want to be a rice worm on the achievements of my predecessors. Elena pouted, why carry if she could lie down and win?
"Forget it, you can feel it directly, let's say ...... like this"
Looking at the girl in front of him, Grindelwald sighed helplessly, thought for a while, stretched out his hand on the back of Elena's somewhat red and swollen hand, and whispered, "your〈wyrd〉".
As soon as the words fell, a white cloud of light appeared silently, softly wrapping the girl's hands, and Elena felt as if they were soaked in a cloud of slightly warm water, and the soreness and exhaustion caused by carrying the solid wood door panels quickly faded.
Not only that, while eliminating the fatigue, Elena could feel that some small scratches and calluses on her fingers were also rapidly healing and disappearing in the misty white light, and this slight itching sensation of small rebirth even made her almost moan in comfort.
After a few moments, the white light gradually dissipated.
This is your, the second character of the Guphosak language, which in the superficial sense represents the bison, a beast of strength and courage, meaning an untamed and uncontrollable force of freedom. In a deeper sense, it represents spiritual and inner strength, a strong body and ...... Well, all you need to know anyway is that it spawns more than half of the healing spells. ”
Grindelwald's old face showed a touch of exhaustion, and directly using his spiritual power to cast magic spells was much more tiring than casting spells without a wand, even if it was the lowest-level ancient magic spell casting, it was at least equivalent to the compound spells of several modern magic spells.
Unfortunately, being more comprehensive and complex does not mean being more powerful, and in general, it just means more waste and cumbersomeness, which is one of the reasons why the ancient runi script is gradually being replaced by more targeted modern spells.
After all, when people are injured unexpectedly, it is enough to heal the wound as soon as possible, and it is not necessary to do a full set of skin care, rapid tissue growth, and energy recovery at the same time.
"Wow! ”
Elena looked at her baby-white skin, and a happy little star unconsciously appeared in her eyes, Aimei is an irresistible fatal temptation for girls of all ages.
Although she had almost forgotten most of what Grindelwald had said before, the all-round "hand care" in front of her was enough for her to refuse—she didn't expect that Old Man Grindelwald would have quite a lot of things, washing dishes, skin care, baking potatoes...... It's like a treasure in the family.
"You have a point, I've always been interested in ancient magic. ”
Without waiting for Grindelwald to continue to organize the language, I saw that Elena, who was originally lazy, suddenly had a straight look in her eyes, sat down obediently, raised her head and looked at Grindelwald with a proper attitude and said, "When will we start learning, I am ready, the will of the ancient sages will be inherited by us!"
Grindelwald looked at the silver-haired little Lori who instantly judged the two of them, and the corners of his mouth twitched, the current child is really realistic...... Well, the cheeks are also thick.
