“As I said just now, these creatures from the Shadow Void, which you call the evil gods, are extrely powerful. Once they succeed in arriving, it will be a disaster for our world,” said Ravenclaw.
Evan nodded silently. This was obvious.
He didn’t need Ravenclaw’s warning to understand the nature of the evil gods. Evan had encountered their true forms multiple tis in visions and the spiritual realm. Their grotesque, colossal bodies and overwhelming power had left a deep impression on him. He couldn’t imagine any wizard standing a chance against such monsters. …
Wait, maybe Salazar Slytherin was an exception, he seed to have dissected one of these evil gods alive.
But Evan couldn’t expect Slytherin to travel through ti to the future to deal with the troubles of his descendants or an evil god that Voldemort might summon at any mont. Powerful wizards could not travel through ti, and a wizard from the past could not change the future.
This was very unrealistic. Perhaps the only thing that could help Evan was the secret treasure left by the Four Founders.
But until now, he still didn’t know what was inside.
Just imagine if it turned out to be Hufflepuff’s recipe collection, detailing how to properly cook an evil god. …
The Four Founders might not do such an unreliable thing, but everything remained uncertain. The best way was to prevent the evil god from coming, solve all problems at the beginning, and then use the power left by the Four Founders to defeat Voldemort.
From a purely refreshing perspective, perhaps this was the kind of plot developnt that everyone would like to see.
Evan was lost in his thoughts as usual. Ravenclaw didn’t seem to notice his distraction. She continued, “The Ti Titan should have told you that more than a thousand years ago, in the ancient era we call the last era, evil gods once descended. This incident directly led to the end of that era. In front of the evil gods, even those ancient warlocks with super powers were no match. …”
“Hmm!” Evan nodded again, snapping out of his thoughts.
During his encounter with the evil god worshipped by the fallen Centaurs, he had heard him talk about this matter.
The evil god had tried to persuade Evan to give up resisting, claiming that even his powerful ancestors had been no match for him and were ultimately forced to flee.
In the eyes of the evil god, Evan’s strength was not worth ntioning at all, he was too weak.
Here, the ancestors ntioned by the evil god were those ancient sorcerers who possessed super powers.
“What happened then?” Evan asked.
“A tragic magic war, a war that destroyed everything,” Ravenclaw said softly, looking up at the night sky outside the window. “After the Wizarding civilization of the ancient warlocks developed to a certain extent, their perception finally penetrated into that world. After a long ti, the existence of humans and this world finally attracted the attention of those terrible creatures lurking in the void. Perhaps because they were too arrogant, perhaps they were bewitched, or perhaps because they were confident in the power they possessed, so ancient warlocks finally turned to these terrible creatures and summoned them. The mont the evil gods returned to this world again, the war began. …”
Evan had also heard of this catastrophic war from the Titan of Ti.
At the end of the war, the ancient sorcerers re-sealed the incoming evil gods, but they themselves perished.
As for the specific course and severity of the war, Evan did not know, and Ravenclaw did not continue to talk about it. This was not their focus.
All Evan needed to know was that if the evil gods ca again, it would be the end of the entire world.
The wizards’ magic level was simply not comparable to that of the ancient sorcerers. They had no chance of defeating the evil gods who had descended in their true forms.
“Because of the Titan of Ti’s request and the anomalies happening around us, I’ve co to realize that that world and the monsters within it truly exist. So, I’ve been collecting and organizing all the information I could find,” Ravenclaw explained. “This has been my primary research focus for the past twenty years. The more I learned, the more astounding it beca. From here to the mysterious East, traces of the evil gods can be found everywhere — like that cat earlier. They hide in the shadows, waiting for opportunities. …”
Rowena Ravenclaw had conducted comprehensive research on evil gods, and Evan’s first thought upon hearing this was of the organization Raven’s Claw.
No wonder this doomsday cult, known for its worship of the evil gods and spreading apocalyptic prophecies, originally erged from Ravenclaw House.
They claid to have discovered ssages left behind by Rowena Ravenclaw — sothing that had always seed absurd.
But now it seed that this was entirely possible.
The difference was that Ravenclaw studied these things in order to destroy the evil gods and save the world, while the Dark wizards of Raven’s Claw used this information to promote the coming of the end of the world and let everyone believe in the evil gods to obtain the so-called salvation. They even searched all over the world for relics left over from ancient tis, hoping to find sothing in them to finally summon a certain evil god. The sa knowledge had different effects in different hands. The key lay in whether one’s heart leaned toward benevolence or the embrace of chaos.
“To summon these creatures to our world, very harsh conditions are required.”
“I know; the evil god I encountered required a lot of power to support his arrival, as well as a huge amount of flesh and blood to construct his body in this world,” said Evan. “The most crucial thing is the evil god statue. Professor Gryffindor once told in a vision in the future that the statue is a coordinate that guides the evil god when traveling through ti and space. …”
“Yes, this is the most important thing,” said Ravenclaw. “But it’s not just a coordinate for guiding those beings’ descent; it’s more like a beacon. Beyond serving as a coordinate, it acts as an unmistakable marker, forging a connection between our world and the dreadful world those creatures inhabit. Based on the materials I’ve found, every beacon was created at the cost of a powerful ancient sorcerer’s life. They co in various forms. Before becoming a beacon, they might have been ordinary objects. But once crafted into a beacon by the ancient sorcerers, they beco indestructible.”
“Like Horcruxes?!” Evan exclaid.
“Indeed, like Horcruxes!” Ravenclaw stared at him for a mont, then spoke slowly. “But beacons are a far more powerful and sinister form of magic. To create one requires imnse magical power and the ultimate sacrifice of an ancient sorcerer.
“Each beacon contains a fragnt of a soul — or sothing akin to a soul — that originates from those terrifying beings. Through the imnse power generated by burning their own life force and magic, the ancient sorcerers could open a very small, short-lived passage between the two worlds. Although brief, it was sufficient to allow the terrifying beings they were in contact with to send a fragnt of their soul, body, or core essence into our world.
“Sorcerers who sided with the evil gods would use these fragnts as the core to create beacons. …”
