Chapter 8: Nature's Messenger
"It's a long-standing question about where people go when they die, and wizards have been looking for this answer for thousands of years, and they have found it."
Wilson said as he walked with Hope.
"If you have read the Tales of the Poet Bean, there is a story that you should be very interested in, the legend of the three brothers, the legend of them found the Grim Reaper, got a powerful wand, a mysterious resurrection stone, and an invisibility cloak, but in the end they were harvested by the Grim Reaper, and the legend says that if you can collect these three things, you can dominate the Grim Reaper."
"So speaking of which, you should know that when people die, they go to the world of the god of death."
Looking at Hope's thoughtful look, Wilson continued: "Doesn't it feel incredible, and I can't believe it?" But it's true, except that after death, wizards have found a way to the realm of the dead, located in the Department of Mysteries, where your mother now works, and it has a nice name beyond the curtain. ”
"However, it was later discovered that things were not simple, Fantastic Beasts, as creatures with magic and intelligence, did not go to the undead world after death, and according to the descriptions of those ghosts who returned to reality due to obsession, they never saw Magical Beasts there."
"After years of research, Lorman's ancestors discovered another mysterious place, which is the place where plants and animals belong, the natural world."
"Like the three brothers and the god of death, the ancestors of Lorman also have a pact with nature, the descendants of the Lorman family will always be favored by nature, and we must protect the natural world from being disturbed, and the most favored one of the descendants can go to nature, and we will call the most favored one the messenger of nature."
Across a canyon, Hope followed Wilson into the middle of the valley, where a quaint bronze gate stood.
Wilson proudly introduced: "This is the place that the Loreman family has guarded for generations, the passage to the natural world, the green vine." ”
Hope looked at the bronze door in front of him, and there was an indescribable attraction.
"So I'm the messenger of nature?"
"I'm not sure yet, but if you can enter, then you're a messenger of nature."
Hope looked at the closed door
"What's in there? It won't be dangerous, right? ”
Wilson shrugged his shoulders and said, "There is nothing in it that no one knows except the messenger of nature, there is no danger, no messenger of nature has ever been injured or killed in the history of the family." ”
Hearing that there was no danger, Hope relaxed a lot, reached out and touched the bronze door, and just wanted to ask if he had to push it open to enter, but before he could say anything, the scene in front of him changed, the valley was gone, and there was only a forest around.
Hope was taken aback: "I'll rub it, where is this?" ”
Just as he wanted to move forward, his body instinctively crawled forward, and he landed on all fours, Hope stood up again in a daze, and looked at his body, brown hair, sharp claws, and thick palm pads, he actually turned into a bear.
"This is the natural world?"
Looking at the surrounding trees, which are similar to the forests in the real world, the most obvious difference is that the body is suddenly from the muddy mud pond into the clean pool, and the body is indescribably comfortable.
Hope happily walks through the forest, and when he sees a tree that is not pleasing to the eye, it is the strength of a bear. Not to mention that the strength is quite strong, the thick trees are directly fanned out with deep scratches.
Hope, tired of playing, sat down on the ground. "Why don't you go back, I won't be cheated."
There was no going back for a while, so Hope decided to go shopping first, and after choosing a direction, the adventure began.
There were many animals here, and he saw many other animals along the way, including rabbits, small squirrels, etc., and he also saw a big brown bear like him, but looking at the fierce eyes of the other party, he decided to take a detour.
I don't know how long he walked, he felt hungry, looking at the rabbits running all over the ground, he felt that it was unacceptable to eat raw, why don't you drill wood to make a fire? It turns out that he thinks too much, and he can't catch up with him and eat, compared to real wild animals, his family is almost meaningless.
At this time, a beehive in the tree caught his attention, he should not be afraid of bees now with rough skin and thick flesh, right? Whatever, eat it first.
Climbing trees is not very feasible, he can't climb, but he has the strength.
Bang~ The body hit the tree, the hive did not fall down after a few times, the unbelieving Hope began to hit the tree again, the hive did not fall, the bee that sensed the danger flew out and surrounded him, and took a closer look that this was not a bee, this was a Billy Wig worm.
"Wait, this is a misunderstanding, do you believe it?"
It's a pity that Billy Wigg didn't believe it, and it was a stab when it went up, and then Hope felt dizzy and floated, and what was even worse was that a fire dragon was patrolling the air, and when he saw the takeaway delivered to his door, there was no reason not to eat it.
Haw~ Hope ended his short bear career.
After death, Hope also returned to reality in an instant, and as soon as he came to his senses, he saw Chang Wei calling Fu... No, his mother was training his grandfather.
Teresa saw that Hope finally came out, and hurriedly stepped forward to check Hope's situation: "Are you okay, are you injured, you have been in for a day, do you know, don't listen to the old man in the future, these things are recorded by the family in a few words, not credible!" ”
Wilson next to him was not happy. "This is a record of family history, and besides, how can you slander him so much, and how much favor our family has received?"
Teresa pursed her lips disdainfully: "Cut, the old antique knows how to guard these old things." Angry Wilson blew his beard and glared.
Hope hurriedly stopped: "There's really no danger in there, and it's fun... "I just wanted to talk about the situation inside, but I found that I couldn't say anything.
A new thought came to Hope's mind.
"Anyway, there was no danger, and I felt like I could transform." Hope said with some excitement.
"Transfiguration?" In the bewildered eyes of the two, Hope transformed, rose to three meters, and turned into a large brown bear.
......
Eventually, Teresa accepted the fact that her son had indeed become a messenger of nature, and after agreeing to Hope's request to stay here until school started, Teresa reluctantly went to work.
Hope was a little curious, obviously so reluctant to go to work, why didn't he quit, anyway, the family has money, why can't he do it, his grandmother told him with a smile, Teresa used to be very obsessed with alchemy, and one day locked herself in the room to study this and that, and it was okay to go to school before, and there were a few classmates who could play together.
After graduating, she had only seen owls coming in and out of her house, Wilson thought that this would not work, so Polym suggested that she try to work, Wilson thought it was a good idea, and even introduced many of them, and later introduced an old friend to a job of the Silent Man, which studied some very magical things, including many mysterious alchemy.
Theresa, who couldn't resist the temptation, obediently went to work, until she married Joey, and Wilson was very happy that her daughter was finally married.
Only then did Hope know why the father and daughter fought as soon as they met.
Wait, he hasn't seen his grandfather in eleven years, it can't be his mother's malicious revenge, Hope feels like he's found a blind spot.
