Elwyn had never seen Elaine use the Guardian Charm, so she was unfamiliar with this magic.
Now that he thought about it, it wasn't that Elaine didn't have happy memories, it was probably because of the Evil God …
"The price to pay for a part of the power is to give up another part of the power. The power in our blood prevents us from using this kind of magic that is obviously harmful to it." Keresis said, "When facing it, there are only two choices, one is to surrender and the other is to die. Obviously, these two choices have the same destination, which is destruction. This is the fate of our race. "
"We can also resist!" In Elwyn's opinion, Keresis's view was too negative.
"Fate should be in our own hands. Although we might not succeed, as long as we work hard, we won't regret it." Hermione followed.
"I believe in Elwyn and Hermione." Elaine said with a little fear, "We will defeat it. Elwyn is the person in the prophecy."
"Alright, you three! Now I also believe that Elwyn is the person in the prophecy. That's why we are here to resist the shackles of fate. " Keresis smiled and rubbed Elaine's head. He said with relief, "We will succeed, we will destroy that monster …"
"Keresis, I was just thinking about this. If we destroy the monster below, what will happen to you?"
"Then we will be free from this damn fate!" Keresis answered simply.
He started to move forward, using the green fluorescent light to mark the dangerous stairs.
"But you told me before." Elwyn said to Hermione and Elaine, "You used the blood of the Evil God to complete The Embrace and become a vampire. Your power comes from it. If it doesn't exist, these powers will also disappear … "
"Losing power is better than losing life and freedom." Keresis paused for a moment, his voice echoing intermittently in the secret passage. "Of course, some of my clansmen will miss this kind of power, but personally, I prefer to become an ordinary person, whether it's for Elaine or the future of the family."
If every vampire could think like Keresis, then it naturally wouldn't be a problem.
Otherwise, the thirst for power and magic in their blood would drive them crazy and push them to a deeper level of depravity.
After getting used to power, not everyone would be willing to be ordinary.
The secret passageway spiraled downwards, getting deeper and deeper as if it was a passageway that had been forcefully carved out of the rock wall.
The interior was not rock, but a dark hollow area, a bit like the huge abyss cave in the depths of Aragok's lair.
In other words, the vampire castle on the surface was built on top of the abyss.
At first, the group of people could still talk, but then they gradually became silent, as if they were lost in the endless darkness.
Suddenly, ethereal and mysterious music floated over from somewhere, and a ball of golden light flashed.
In the flames, a crimson bird suddenly descended from the sky. It was the phoenix, Fawkes.
It spread its wings and flew in front, the flames dispelling the deepening darkness, and the phoenix's song was inspiring.
"It's Fawkes, Dumbledore must be nearby."
They quickened their pace, and the scene before them suddenly opened up. They had arrived at the bottom of the abyss.
At the bottom was a wide, circular underground hall, and the surrounding walls were made of rough stones.
Unknown plants grew on it, emitting a faint green light. The walls were carved with exquisite patterns, and there was the emblem of the Slytherin family.
Right in front of them was a huge stone door with a magnificent aura.
"We're here, if we continue forward, we'll reach the core of the seal!" Keresis said. "According to the information revealed in the family's ancient books, only the true descendants of Slytherin can enter. It's now opened because …"
Without waiting for him to finish, Elwyn saw the fifteen-year-old Riddle standing in front of the door with a smile on his face.
He did not know how Dumbledore did it, but he once again regained his physical form. His face was ruddy, as if he was alive.
Looking at him purely on the surface, it was impossible to tell that he was just a memory formed from a soul tool.
Instead, it was a fifteen-year-old handsome youth, wearing the Hogwarts uniform, a good student with excellent conduct and studies.
"Welcome, welcome!" Riddle said softly, bowing slightly, and walked towards Elwyn and the others. "This must be Miss Granger, I've heard of your name from the professor. He said that you're the most outstanding student of Hogwarts in recent years. The one beside you must be Elaine, the young descendant of the vampire Slytherin family. Oh, this Guardian, the monster inside must have a great influence on you. You just have to endure it for a while, trust me, this process will not last long. "
There was nothing to criticize about his behavior. Coupled with that smile, it gave people a good impression at first sight.
If one did not know his true identity, they might be bewitched.
"So, Dumbledore believes you again?" Elwyn said, watching him shake hands with Hermione and Elaine.
Hermione hesitated for a moment, then shook hands with him lightly.
Elaine kept looking at the Guardian on her shoulder and did not pay any attention to Riddle. He did not care either.
"It's obvious that Dumbledore is willing to give me a chance to prove myself," Riddle replied, extending his hand to Elwyn. Riddle replied, extending his hand to Ivan. "My experiences these past few days have been very strange. How should I put it? I feel like I've been reborn."
Elwyn lightly touched his right hand. It was so cold …
"Where is Dumbledore?"
"He's inside studying the magic left behind by Salazar. The magic is very fascinating," Riddle said. "This way. We agreed that before we start studying the legacy left behind by my great ancestor, we should first solve the problem he left behind."
"Elwyn, who is he?" Hermione asked suspiciously, looking at Riddle's back. "Why is he wearing the Hogwarts uniform?"
"Fifteen-year-old Tom Riddle."
Hermione blinked, seemingly puzzled by Elwyn's answer. Then, she reacted, her eyes widening.
"He's the young Lord Voldemort?"
"Yes. To be more precise, he's a soul vessel. Just like the diary back then, after obtaining energy, he'll leave the soul vessel and move on his own." Elwyn said, holding Hermione's left hand. "I'll tell you the details when we get back. After all, this guy is the young Lord Voldemort. He's very troublesome. No matter what he says, be careful!"
Because of Dumbledore's request, Elwyn did not tell Hermione about what happened that night.
