Hogwarts: Bloodline Legend

Chapter 812 - 227: The Mirror of Erised and Morgan (2)

"Since you’re so cooperative, why not chat with me?"

Ian also wanted to study the Big Bad Wolf and the secrets behind it.

"Of course, of course, no problem." The soul body of the Big Bad Wolf wavered slightly, as if nodding. Its voice was deep and hoarse, with a touch of ingratiating flattery.

"What do you want to talk about?"

The Big Bad Wolf even managed a smile on its wolf face.

There wasn’t an uncanny valley effect, it seemed more like a happy valley effect, quite comedic.

"Let’s talk about the Soul Hall," Ian stretched his neck, his eyes reflecting the true form of the Big Bad Wolf, the surrounding shadows offering no concealment before his eyes.

"Like how you joined the Soul Hall?" He consciously chose a topic that shouldn’t be too sensitive and started a casual chat with the Big Bad Wolf.

"Joining the Soul Hall huh..."

The Big Bad Wolf fell silent for a moment, seemingly reminiscing about its past. Its voice slowly rang out, tinged with a hint of lament: "I had a nemesis. She grew into a fine young woman and moved away. I don’t really miss her, but life afterward was a bit empty, so I occasionally went out looking for fun."

"I’ve seen the tortoise and hare racing, watched the rise of the Lion King, scared a little pony crossing the river to tears, mocked the monkey fishing the moon. Such life was indeed fulfilling."

"But then, one day, a great fire broke out in the forest, black flames devouring everything. I died in that fire, yet my soul did not enter the Netherworld. As I was lost, Cinderella appeared. She took me to the Soul Hall, offering me a new wolf life."

"Of course, there were other Fantastic Beasts." The soul body of the Big Bad Wolf wavered slightly in the bottle, clearly impacted emotionally by these memories and past experiences.

"Cinderella?" Ian raised his eyebrows.

"Cinderella?"

He wanted to confirm further.

"Yes."

The Big Bad Wolf nodded.

"Cinderella is the one with the most affairs in the Soul Hall. We all think she is the Hall Master of the Soul Hall. She told me that we are characters in stories and thus possess quite special powers."

"Actually, I haven’t learned much. This is my first mission. My mission is to guard Morgan, because she is one of the Raven’s Servant Angels."

It’s undeniable.

The fact that the Big Bad Wolf was caught so carelessly by Ian indeed showed that someone like it was definitely not an experienced individual.

"Raven’s angel huh..."

Ian whispered the title, not the first time he’d heard the word angel, pondering, a hint of complex emotion flashed in his eyes.

"It seems you guys can perceive fate, which is indeed a basic characteristics of time travel." The Little Wizard raised his head to look at the Big Bad Wolf, asking curiously.

"Then, have you seen the Raven?"

He’s delving deeper, seeking further secrets of the Soul Hall.

How to put it.

Very cautious, very skillful, yet evidently somewhat overly cautious, the Big Bad Wolf was now in a state of saying anything it knows, shaking its head before decisively answering, "No. The eternal Raven is the highest existence of the Soul Hall, almost no one has seen him. However, every Soul Hall member has His imprint in their minds, which is our ’entry credential.’ And it’s precisely because of this imprint that I feel fear towards you."

"You are our master...right?" The Big Bad Wolf carefully sought confirmation from Ian, its disclosure wasn’t betrayal, but it had already determined Ian’s identity in its heart.

"Maybe."

Ian blinked, somewhat ambiguous.

Entry credential as a saying.

Indeed aligned with his style.

He just didn’t understand why he’d consistently appear as the Raven in the future, if something unexpected happened causing him not to change back or some other situation?

Thinking this.

Ian couldn’t help but recall Medivh, the established alias, if Medivh and the Raven could coexist, then it proves his Animagus must not have malfunctioned.

"And Medivh? How much do you know about him?"

Ian quickly inquired.

Playing two roles wasn’t an issue, but thinking about how he obtained the Animagus form felt inexplicably odd, something seemed off.

"Uh, well..."

The Big Bad Wolf stuck out its tongue.

Somewhat puzzled as to why Ian was asking these questions.

Was he testing him?

While imagining, it responded simultaneously.

"Medivh is the Great Guardian of the Soul Hall, but his whereabouts are even more mysterious than what’s in your heart. Reportedly, he is fond of pillage and arson, thoroughly enjoys engaging in things hard to evaluate in terms of good or evil."

The Big Bad Wolf seemingly already believed Ian was its eternal master.

However.

Evidently, it didn’t know Medivh was also Ian, otherwise, it surely wouldn’t have given such an evaluation.

"..."

Ian fell into a depression at these words, if it were just the Duke saying so, perhaps it could be dismissed as heavily distorted rumors, but why did members of the Soul Hall say so too!

He really didn’t like pillage and arson!

"You should’ve just heard of it too, right?"

Ian persistently probed.

The Big Bad Wolf’s reply offered him psychological comfort.

"Yeah, perhaps only Cinderella and Cassandra have seen him. Connections among Soul Hall members are not close, everyone has their own tasks, plus I am a newbie, knowing little." It indeed hadn’t seen, nor had any interactions with Medivh, and most of the Soul Hall members likely shared its lack of experience.
