I opened the last one.
What does it mean?
Before anyone could understand, the line of words disappeared.
"I opened the last one. What does it mean?" Harry asked, confused.
Hermione and Ron shook their heads, confused.
"I open it when I close it, I open it when I open the last one, I open it at the last one …" Sirius was still spelling out the words that had just appeared, trying to find the meaning.
"I open it at the end." Elwyn said, "Dumbledore left magic on the Snitch. Harry can only open it when he thinks it's the last one."
He didn't finish, nor did he tell them that there was a Resurrection Stone inside. The meaning of this was not as simple as opening the Snitch.
In fact, only when Harry had the courage to face death calmly could he open the Snitch and get the Resurrection Stone inside.
The Resurrection Stone wouldn't help people resurrect, but it could help people understand the true meaning of death.
At that time, Harry's parents, his deceased relatives, and the innocent people killed by Lord Voldemort would come out to help him and give him courage.
The courage to face death and move on.
Death, or to be exact, to be killed by Lord Voldemort himself, would be Harry's final fate.
Although it was difficult, it was something that could not be changed.
To destroy the soul of Lord Voldemort in Harry's scars, he had to experience death.
Although Dumbledore said that it might be possible to use the magic of the Double Snake Staff to do this, no one knew how to do it.
Dumbledore could train Elwyn as his helper to fight against Lord Voldemort and the evil gods. But for Harry, he could only use this method to help him grow, especially spiritually, because only Harry could understand the process of death and make the final decision.
This was far more difficult than magic, and even Elwyn did not quite understand it.
Elwyn could learn a lot of magic, and he could figure out the ins and outs of the whole thing. However, without that kind of experience, without that kind of awareness and understanding, he could not face death or understand what love was …
This was what Dumbledore had always emphasized. The strongest power was not magic, and the scariest thing was not death. The Lord Voldemort would never understand these things. So no matter how strong the Lord Voldemort became, it was just a joke to Dumbledore.
Of course, these were just Elwyn's guesses. There were many things in this area that he did not understand.
"Elwyn, what did you mean when you said it was over?" Harry asked, puzzled.
"From the literal meaning, it means when everything is about to end. Maybe it's when we fight Lord Voldemort." Elwyn said, "Maybe it's when Dumbledore thinks that everything is about to end. Anyway, no matter what, you'll know when the time comes."
Harry did not understand Elwyn's answer, but Sirius instructed, "Keep the Snitch close to you, Harry. Dumbledore must have left something important in it for you. When you need it or when you don't use it carelessly, it will come out."
"If that's really the case …" Harry muttered and kept the Snitch.
"Well, Ron's Light Extinguisher is a very practical magic item. Elwyn's statue is related to the Evil God. Harry's Snitch can be explained in this way. Then what's in this book?" Hermione said, raising the fairy tale collection in her hand. "The function of a book is to pass information. But I don't understand. If Dumbledore really wants to pass some information to me, and this thing is very important, he must pass it to us under the nose of the Ministry of Magic. He should at least let us know why … unless he thinks it's obvious and not based on our guesses. Look at this, 'The Tales of Beedle the Poet', I've never heard of this book … "
"You're kidding. How could you have never heard of 'The Tales of Beedle the Poet'?" Ron said, puzzled.
"No, I've never heard of it," Hermione said in surprise and looked at Ron in surprise. "Do you know?!"
"Of course I know." Ron replied in confusion, as if thinking that Hermione was joking with her. "Everyone knows that the oldest fairy tales were written by Beedle the Poet, right? 'The Fountain of Good Luck', 'The Wizard and the Jumping Pot', 'The Wizard's Hairy Heart', 'Babbitty and the Tree Stump' … "
"Sorry, I didn't hear you clearly. What's the last one?" Hermione asked.
"Stop joking!" Ron looked at them in disbelief. "How could you not know these stories? All children have heard of Babbitty the Stingy Rabbit."
"Maybe it's because we grew up in Muggle's family. Me, Elwyn, and Harry are all from that family." Hermione said, "We didn't hear those stories when we were young. We heard stories like 'Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs', 'Daughter of the Sea', 'Little Red Riding Hood', and 'Cinderella'. I even performed Little Red Riding Hood in elementary school …"
"What are you talking about? A disease? "Ron asked.
Hermione snorted heavily and ignored him.
"Alright, it's not surprising that Ron, Harry, and the others don't know about Beedle the Poet's Tales. This is a collection of fairy tales in the magical world. It contains many old fairy tales, some of which are thousands of years old. Because it has been passed down for so long, there are many versions of the stories in this book." Sirius explained, "I remember I had one when I was young. It contained 'The Fountain of Good Luck', 'The Wizard and the Jumping Pot', 'The Wizard's Hairy Heart', 'The Talking Skull', 'The Legend of the Three Brothers', and so on. But the one I saw was definitely different from the normal ones. It must have been adapted by a dark wizard, because the Muggle in the stories all had bad endings. I always thought that these stories were not suitable for children to read. They were too dark. "
"I see. So, all the stories in this book are fairy tales?" Hermione buried her head in the ancient text again. She could not wait to read the first story. "This is ancient magical text. This book must be very old, but it's just a fairy tale …"
