Luke's head hurt like no other. And when he was able to open his eyes and look around, the faces of Slytherin and Dumbledore appeared in front of him.
Luke was startled.
He was really worried that these two people would say to him, "Are you awake? The operation was successful..."
So Luke stretched out his left hand and touched his second brother calmly.
Then he breathed a sigh of relief.
But after thinking about it, I laughed out loud. The two people in front of me didn't know the story of the previous world. He would neither say those words nor do those things.
"What happened just now? Who is the owner of that voice? Is it who I thought it was?"
Luke asked himself as calmly as possible to ask these questions. But it was a pity that because the possibility he thought about was a bit too shocking, he still could not completely suppress the surprise in his voice.
At the same time, his own heart was ticking.
Is he really a god?
In the world of wizards, there are gods, which does not seem to be counter-intuitive to normal understanding. After all, there is mysterious magic. So what’s the big problem with the existence of gods?
But this wizarding world is very different, and Luke, who has lived in this world for a long time, has been affected to a certain extent.
However, there is a great god beside Luke.
The existence of the system made him suspect that there were indeed high-level creatures in the world. Moreover, whether this high-ranking being is an alien, a god, or a poor writer, it has made him much more receptive to the existence of gods.
At least it won’t be so easy to call out that it’s impossible when you see a god.
So...if the story of Death and the three brothers was not an exaggeration or a metaphor, but a realistic story...then it would only surprise him at most.
Dumbledore was slightly surprised by Luke's question. After all, it seemed like Luke did guess something.
"I don't know, I can only guess, maybe it is indeed the person from the fairy tale."
Dumbledore didn't lie, he really didn't know the exact identity of that person. After all, that person didn't express it, and Slytherin didn't have any direct communication with him.
But since this situation occurred, Dumbledore didn't ask any more questions. He just smiled and said: "It seems that you are not affected much."
Luke patted his head, and then said angrily: "I just think faster."
Apparently Luke understood what Dumbledore meant. He glanced at Slytherin over there, and then frowned.
Dumbledore looked at his expression, his face was calm, and his heart was filled with ripples.
This kid shouldn't be so awesome, right?
Could it be that Luke could tell that something was wrong even though there was no sign at all?
But he didn't panic and remained calm.
"Your condition doesn't look very good."
Luke looked at Slytherin, whose face flashed with confusion from time to time, and asked with some concern.
When Slytherin heard this, a trace of pain flashed across his face, and then he hit his head hard.
"If I lose my sanity again... I may have to return to my original state. According to past experiments, this state may last for a long time. Of course, with the help of the magic circle this time, it should be much shorter... "
Slytherin said somewhat uncomfortably at first, but afterwards, his expression became much more normal. After all, the effect is not completely lost.
Luke thought for a moment, and then said: "Do you want to go back with me? Anyway, at least I can take good care of you. I won't let you be like this..."
Slytherin glanced at his tattered robe, lifted up his long oily hair and sniffed it at the tip of his nose, then showed a look of disgust.
But I still haven’t sorted out my thoughts
.
"These things don't matter, but I really can't go back with you."
He declined Luke's invitation without hesitation.
Luke looked at him and asked with confusion: "Why? Reason?"
"Not everything has a reason." Slytherin looked troubled, "I don't know why, but when I think of living with you, no, I can't say that..."
It wasn't because of Luke's awkward expression that he changed his words, it seemed that he thought something was wrong.
"I can't live with normal humans. Something like a contract or an oath is stopping me. I'm also a little repelled by places like that. But I don't know if it's my own psychological problem or that thing that's restraining me. ..."
When he said this, the expression on his face was somewhat helpless.
It seems that he has inherited a lot of memories, but those memories come and go. It seems that his own soul is not fully developed yet.
Dumbledore also had a little surprise on his face. This kind of ban seems to be meaningless.
At the very least, Dumbledore had some difficulty understanding the meaning of this behavior.
Luke, on the other hand, looked thoughtful.
"Don't you want to have too much contact with this world?" Luke nodded with some distress, but didn't say much.
With that said, he stood up and walked towards the direction of the magic circle.
"You've been here long enough, and those guys outside can't wait any longer. Since... ancestor, you still have some thinking ability, then help me explain this magic. I'm still very curious."
Dumbledore followed Luke's lead. Of course he wouldn't miss this kind of thing. And since he came and helped a lot, he had no intention of leaving just like that.
Luke and Slytherin would not burn bridges and kill donkeys. So it was agreed that Dumbledore would come over to learn this magic, which was supposed to be the secret of the Gaunt family.
As for whether anyone will raise objections after knowing this.
Just kidding, the current Gaunt family and the ancestors of the Gaunt family haven't said anything yet. How can any monster dare to speak here?
"Actually, the core is the pattern of the magic circle. But in fact... the real core is the material used for resurrection."
Slytherin explained seriously.
He pointed to the bones in the center of the magic circle and said: "It seems that the bones there are the core of resurrection. But in fact, the vitality contained in the bones there is not enough. Using that thing as the main material of resurrection is It is impossible to completely resurrect Medusa."
"So, I put this thing here as a support, or an anchor point for reviving the soul."
"But you have also seen the effect. This magic still has not completed the summoning of souls. In fact, the most important thing we can bring back souls is the Resurrection Stone."
Having said this, Slytherin rubbed his brows in distress and said, "But the hidden dangers of the Resurrection Stone have also appeared. The soul it summons cannot exist in this world for a long time."
"The second child of the legendary three brothers is like this. Although a separation is painful, repeated separation will not make people get used to it."
"Even though he knew that he could summon her again, the time spent with her was getting less and less each time. In the end, he was embarrassed and burdened, and he finally chose to stay with his wife forever."
"This is the conclusion I came to when I studied resurrection stones before. I can't guarantee it's correct, but the possibility should be relatively high."
Dumbledore and Luke also nodded when they heard this inference.
After parting, you will slowly get used to the life of losing each other. But constant separation means constant cuts in one's heart. Old wounds are not healed before new ones are added. This is a process of constant destruction. After all, it will be unbearable.
Dumbledore had some feelings about such things. And when he looked at Luke, he realized
There was a sentimental look in Luke's eyes. There seems to be empathy.
This made him a little confused, but he was quickly relieved.
After all Luke...is an orphan.
What he didn't know was that what Luke missed even more was the world that could tolerate him more. But if you want to give him a chance to go back, will he agree?
Then he will definitely not agree!
There was also a lot of darkness in that world, which wasn't necessarily much better than this world. In that world, although I could live a very comfortable life, I couldn't change the things I couldn't stand. The most you can do is to keep out of sight and keep out of sight while not doing it yourself.
But in this world, you can try to change the world.
"So... what is the main material of resurrection?"
Luke glanced at Medusa sleeping in the corner and asked with a puzzled look on his face.
Medusa was in such a lively state just now that even Dumbledore had to deal with her for a while to figure out the methods of this "Donkey of Guizhou" before subduing her.
From this point of view, the physical recovery can be said to be quite successful.
"It's a heart."
Slytherin said solemnly: "It is a heart containing the life essence of Medusa."
"Medusa and I are friends. After she died in an accident, I took off a piece of snake hair as a souvenir. At that time, she still had some snake hair scattered. So I was not surprised when I felt the breath of snake hair. .”
"However, I buried her body with my own hands at that time. But her life essence appeared in a strange heart."

Will be waiting for us outside. So after you go out, be careful. "
"You're not even going to go out with us?"
Luke glanced at Slytherin in surprise.
Slytherin nodded and said, "I will modify the magic circle here later to speed up the growth of my soul. It will prevent me from losing control again."
When Luke heard this reason, he couldn't say anything. No one wants to be a fool who doesn't understand anything.
Then, Slytherin broke apart the entire magic, crushed it into pieces, and explained it to the two of them.
Luke felt a little dizzy. After all, there were many magic theories involved, and he could only understand a noun at most.
Fortunately, Dumbledore was with him this time. Although he has a lot of magic that he cannot share with Dumbledore. But this magic is already heavy enough. It wouldn't be a big deal to have Dumbledore say it a few more times after the fact.
Dumbledore served as the perfect backdrop for the previous dialogue between Luke and Slytherin, the pair of ancestors and descendants.
Of course, there will be no less benefits at all. This time, he is not a freeloader. He has paid for all this with his own efforts.
Although, Slytherin's magic gave him a little headache.
After finishing speaking, Slytherin left the two of them here and asked them to think about this magic, while he began to modify the magic circle.
After a long time, Luke gave up thinking.
He really couldn't understand something.
Dumbledore also opened his eyes shortly afterwards.
After rubbing his temples, he said to Luke: "Take that body with you, we should go."
Luke nodded without delaying. He stepped forward. First, take off your own robe and put it on the Gorgon's body. Then he used the levitation spell to levitate it in the air, and then followed Dumbledore and walked out of the cave.
As he walked out, he turned to look at Slytherin, but Slytherin just looked at him and waved his hand towards him.
Obviously, he has no regrets about his descendant.
Luke also breathed a sigh of relief. It would have been the best outcome if the ancestor didn't get involved.
So he turned back and followed Dumbledore's footsteps.
Outside the cave, a group of people looked at the entrance of the cave.
Arthur's face showed joy: "Come out! Two steps!"
