"What's wrong with these books?" Delphie followed him to the bookshelf.
"Interesting. Where did she find these books?" Elwyn said, his fingertips tracing the spines of "Birth of the Titans" and "Shadow Pact". "I haven't read many of them."
"Elwyn, we're not here to read books," Delphie reminded. "Time is limited …"
"Don't worry, Delphie. The time converter is hidden in these books." Elwyn said, "To be precise, it's in one of these books. She has cast a spell on these books. Don't take them out easily, or you'll trigger the spell."
"Really?" Delphie looked up at the bookshelf and said with interest, "'Shadow and Spirit', 'Poison Witchcraft Guide', 'The History of Opal Flame', 'Soul Snatch Spell and Its Use', these are all banned books. Our minister may be a hidden Dark Wizard."
"She only collected them here. She can't have read them all." Elwyn said, his fingers stopping on a very thick book where the magic reaction was the most obvious. "Look at this, 'My Eyes and How to See the Future' by Cy Bill Trelawney. This is a divination book. Interesting. Hermione hates divination and Trelawney. Why would she put this book here?"
"Maybe it's a hobby. I've never heard of the minister hating divination."
"That's because you don't know her. In her eyes, Trelawney is a big liar and divination is a waste of time."
"You say it as if you know her very well."
"Of course, there must be something in this book." Elwyn took the book out. "Let's take a look."
The pages flipped open and it began to speak. It was Professor Trelawney's voice: the first is the fourth, a disappointing mark. You noticed it stopped, but not in the park.
"What do you mean?" Delphie was stunned. "The book is talking!"
"This is a riddle. It's giving us hints. It fits Hermione's style very well," Elwyn said.
He threw the book to the ground. The pages opened and closed violently as if they were going to eat it.
"Riddle?"
"Yes!" As Elwyn spoke, he pulled Delphi and pushed it back. Just like the Monster Book of the Monsters, this "My Eyes and How to See the Future" scurried in front of them like some kind of weird crab.
The thick pages of the book opened and closed violently. If one were to accidentally get caught, the feeling would definitely be very unpleasant.
"The second one … where did it stop?"
"The third is the mountain climbed and the road taken!"
"Hmm, the answer to the first riddle should be the letters d and e, the second refers to men, and the answer to the third riddle is tors, which means Dementors. It wants us to find books about Dementors."
"Here's a copy of 'The Dementors of Dictatorship: The Real History of Azkaban'!" Delphi took out the book.
But this was a mistake. As the books on Delphi flew into the air, they rushed towards Elwyn and Delphi.
Elwyn hurriedly waved his wand and an energy barrier formed in front of them. All the books that were rushing towards them flew back.
They began to combine into a terrifying monster of hundreds of books stacked on top of each other.
"This spell is really good!" Elwyn said, and a red spell shot out from the end of his wand.
The broken pages flew everywhere, but the monster formed by the books did not seem to notice. It slammed into Elwyn and Delphi.
The book "My Eyes and How to See the Future" continued to speak. Professor Trelawney's voice changed. It was not an ethereal voice, but a very low and suppressed voice. "I was born in a cage, but I tore it apart in anger. The Gunter and bloodline in me released me, and he should have stopped me."
"It's a prophecy. That was a trap. Before entering the zone, Professor Trelawney's prophecies have always been inaccurate. She also took this into account," Elwyn said. "This should be true. We need to find books related to the Lord Voldemort."
"The Dark Lord!" Delphi's eyes flashed. "We need to find books related to him?"
"That's right!" Elwyn controlled the energy barrier and protected himself and Delphi as they walked towards the bookshelves.
The books were still ramming into them with great force, as if they were going to crush them to death.
"There's' Born Noble: The Glory of Pureblood 'and' The Bloodline of Slytherin 'here. What do you think?"
"It shouldn't be these two," Elwyn said. Although he was a descendant of Slytherin, the Lord Voldemort was a mixed-blood.
They browsed the bookshelves, and the names of the books flashed before their eyes.
"There's' Marvolo: The Truth, the Birth of Darkness', written by Hermione Granger," Delphi said.
"I think we can try. The prophecy gave us a general direction, and the rest can only be guessed."
Delphi pulled the book out, but there was no reaction from the bookshelf.
But as soon as she opened it, a flash of light flashed, and her body was quickly petrified from bottom to top.
"It's not this one!" Elwyn knocked her with his wand and undid the magic on Delphi. He pulled her away from the bookshelf that had suddenly gone berserk. "Let me do it next time. She cast different magic on different books, so we have to be careful."
"Lord Voldemort, Lord Voldemort, I got it. 'The Battle of the Dark Lord and the Hogwarts', written by Elwyn Mason."
Elwyn took out the book. It was a book he had written.
The next second, the pages flipped quickly, and a cracking light enveloped Elwyn.
His body quickly changed into a black cat, much like his Animagus form. He had been transformed!
"Elwyn!" Delphi shouted. Her voice was drowned out by the sound of countless books flipping.
At that moment, all the books on the bookshelves flew out and whistled through the air. Countless books in the entire office spun and turned into a giant whirlpool. They were going to swallow Elwyn and Delphi, annihilating them in the ocean of books.
Delphi hugged Elwyn and dodged everywhere. She had no idea what to do in the face of so many violent magic books.
A heavy book came crashing at her. She fell to the ground and rolled under the desk …
Without the wand, Elwyn could not transform back. He had to find the right book to undo this spell.
He looked at the magic books flying in the air. He had to admit that Hermione's magic had improved a lot after eighteen years.
This could not go on. He had to find the right book. Elwyn found an opportunity and jumped onto a book.
He was already very familiar with his cat form. He was very agile and skillfully dodged the magic books that attacked him.
Elwyn flipped through a few more books, but none of them were correct. They were all wrong.
Professor Trelawney's voice continued. She said a few prophecies in a row, but they were all false.
