Chapter 119: Barrow, the Bloody Man Who 'Caught the Rape in Bed'
It's the first time Rove has heard of the so-called Wizard Blood Curse, but when he thinks about it, it seems reasonable.
After all, compared to Muggles, it is a well-known fact that wizarding children are difficult.
It's not that many wizards don't want to have a second, third, or even n child, but they really can't give birth!
Most of those prominent surnames that existed thousands of years ago were not destroyed by war or vendettas, but suddenly disappeared in a certain generation, leading to the eventual demise of the entire family.
Pefreyer, Slytherin, or Hufflepuff, you name it!
There are also some wizard families, a certain generation suddenly prospered, but it will not spread out, and within one or two generations, due to various "accidents", the bloodline will be rapidly reduced, and finally the same vein will be passed on again.
One or two examples can be said to be coincidences, but it is generally true, and it is likely to be true as Ravenclaw said...... There is a curse.
It's like Defense Against the Dark Arts, all teachers don't stay in office for more than a year, you say that's just a coincidence, why not coincidence to the position of Minister of Magic?
(Fudge: Thank you!) οΌ
In an ethereal, pure voice, Helena sang, "All the gifts of fate have been secretly priced. β
"Magic is a gift to humanity, and curses are the price to be paid."
Rove pondered for a long time and asked a crucial question: "Who cursed the sorcerer's bloodline?" β
Being able to curse an entire race is not an ordinary force, even Dumbledore and Voldemort can't do it, right?
"I don't know." Helena shook her head, a little embarrassed:
"This is what my mother said when she was playing wizarding chess with Hufflepuff, I wasn't interested in this stuff, I got bored with it and walked away......"
ββ¦β¦β
Two great wizards are talking about the secrets of the wizarding world, and you are annoyed?
Rove sighed, he only felt again, Ravenclaw, who is known for his wisdom, was able to give birth to such a smart girl, are you sure that the delivery room held the wrong cub back then?
But, then again, as beautiful as Helena, it seems that it doesn't matter if she's smart or not, as long as you know how to run home on a rainy day.
Rove looked at the old Gaunt mansion in the distance, the weeds on the roof fluttering stubbornly in the wind, and he said softly, "Okay, I'm going back to school." β
"Will you go back now?" Helena asked.
"yes, it's faster, maybe you can make it to school lunch." Rove glanced at Helena and said, "What's the matter, are you still okay?" β
Helena nodded, and after a silence, she whispered, "I want to go to the hot springs...... Can you come with me? β
ββ¦β¦β
Rove is a little powerless to complain, you are a ghost who has been dead for a thousand years, what kind of hot springs do you soak, can you feel the temperature of the water?
Of course, the boy was not interested in bathing with the female ghost, and when he was about to turn away, Helena said in a soft voice:
"Rove, I know that there is a fierce earthworm under the hot springs, and it often attacks Muggles in nearby villages...... Are you sure you don't want to go? β
Rove was expressionless, even a little disdainful.
An earthworm leads you, and you want me to sell my hue and accompany you to the hot springs?
You look down on me Scamander too much, don't you?!
The young man stopped suddenly, he lifted the box in his hand, turned to look at Helena, and said with a smile:
"Let's go, lead the way."
β¦β¦
β¦β¦
In the middle of a forest, there is a natural underground hot spring filled with a small pool. The water is steaming and the edge of the pool is covered with moss.
Rove sat on the shore and stretched out his hand to stir up the hot springs, the water surface stirred up ripples, and the water temperature was just right, indeed suitable for bathing.
Now that he knows the location, he can also bring people here to soak in the hot springs in the future.
Helena, who had already entered the water, urged: "Rove, you come down quickly, the earthworm is under the water." β
Rove hesitated, but considering that Helena was dead and just a ghost, he had nothing to be shy about, and quickly took off his robe and shoes, wearing only shorts, and stabbed into the water with a fish leap.
Rove took out a golden scale, it was warm, like life, shining with a golden light, shining brighter than gold.
This golden scale was a gift from Lotus that Messira had stripped from herself, and as long as she held it in her mouth, she could breathe in the water.
The boy took the golden scales in his mouth, plunged underwater, and soon dived to the bottom, Helena appeared beside him and instructed, "That earthworm is over there. β
Rove swam underwater, and found an earthworm more than four meters long on the edge of a boulder rooted in the water.
The earthworm is a very fierce magical creature, as thick as a human arm when it is a larvae, and it is very irritable when it is an adult.
Of course, its most famous feature is its tenacious vitality, which can grow back even if its body is cut into more than a dozen segments.
Rove looked at the earthworm, and there was a sudden "ding" in his brain.
[Detected wild earthworm leads one, triggers side quest 1:]
Capture the Worm and reward Magic:
γRebirth of a severed limbγ
[By consuming a large amount of mana and promoting the continuous proliferation of cells, you can regenerate damaged organs]
γSide Mission 2γ
100% domestication of the water earthworm and rewards magic:
γEating soilγ
[By eating soil, you can absorb organic matter in the soil and maintain the survival of life]
Rove glanced at the system mission, although he used to complain every day that he was going to eat soil, he didn't want to really eat soil.
The water worm that was more than four meters long was really very irritable, and when it saw Rove, it suddenly jumped up and opened its mouth at him, its teeth as sharp as jagged.
Rove's five fingers spread out, and with a grasp of it, an arm-length water dragon condensed at his side.
The water dragon swooped straight into the water worm, and its body became bigger and bigger.
One meter, three meters, ten meters.
A huge whirlpool appeared throughout the pool.
The earthworm had already realized that something was wrong, and it tried to stop its form, but the water dragon jumped up and slammed into it, causing it to fall to the bottom.
The water dragon chased after him, pressing down with one claw and slowly lowering his head.
Rove swam near the water dragon, looked down at the water worm curled up under the water dragon's claws, and couldn't help but smile.
Capture complete!
Helena appeared beside the boy and exclaimed, "Rove, you are much better than you were two years ago. β
"It's okay." Rove smiled, he has completed too many tasks in the past two years, and his strength is certainly much stronger than before.
"Rove, with your strength now, you are strong enough to enter my mother's tomb, and there will definitely be no danger." Helena asked again, "When do you want to go?" β
Rove didn't speak, he was actually very resistant to this matter, so he always shirked it with subtle words.
Helena obviously felt it too, and she lowered her eyes and said:
"Rove, do you know why I still came to the hot spring when I was dead?"
Rove shook his head.
"Because when I was still alive, I used to spend a lot of time with my mother. I love the big pool, the hot, steamy environment. Helena sighed:
"So, I come here a lot to bring back memories of my past."
"But in fact, I can't remember the feeling of being alive for a long time."
Rove was silent.
"Rove, I beg you to help me." Helena's face was full of pleading:
"I know...... You've been playing with me all the time, and you've never thought about resurrecting me in the bottom of your heart. But you are the person Cassandra Trelawney prophesied. β
"I can give you everything I have if you want to...... My whole being is yours. β
Helena floated in the water, gently removing her long skirt, she was wearing thin underwear, but she could still see the delicate ...... Chest.
ββ¦β¦β
Rove sighed, did this start using the color seduction?
A moment later, the boy resurfaced, and he was suddenly stunned.
Barrow the Bloody Man was actually standing on the shore, he looked at the naked Rove, and then at Helena, who came out of the water and was still arranging her collar......
Barrow's eyes instantly turned red.
