Hogwarts: My name is the Unforgivable Curse

Chapter 58 Professor Baker’s message

As Avada expected, after Balon revealed that he was a Slytherin, the atmosphere in the room immediately cooled down. Ron's smile suddenly became very forced, and Harry scratched his head and didn't know what to do - there was no way, they were all people who had been disgusted by Slytherin in the past few days. My favorability level has almost been brushed off the line.

Balon seemed to want to ask something, but before he could speak, Ron casually said a few goodbyes and then pulled Harry away. Hagrid also looked at the few people in confusion. I just couldn't figure out what happened.

"They seem to have only been in school for two weeks, right? Why do they have such strong opinions against Slytherin?" Baron frowned and was very confused: "And both Potter and Weasley are pure-blood families, those guys with bad personalities There should be no reason to target them? Could it be that their Muggle-born friends are being targeted?"

"Why don't you ask Draco? They are in the same class, so they should be able to understand something."

Avada mercilessly betrayed Malfoy, whom she had met several times.

"Well, there is a way." Balon didn't expect that Lucius's son would specifically look for the savior who killed Voldemort. He simply wanted to confirm the situation with Malfoy.

As for what will happen after he knows the real situation, Avada doesn't know for the time being - anyway, he only heard that Balon went to find Harry and Neville, but he didn't tell him what happened specifically... …

For more than a month, everything went as usual except that Baron seemed to be in a bad mood. The progress of Voldemort's mental power analysis is progressing steadily; Avada went to the edge of the Forbidden Forest to see the Ball Escape Birds when he had nothing to do. Over time, he gained a lot, and he has found ideas for new space magic; he has already taken two classes with Voldemort. This time, I also gained a lot of knowledge about mental power and the soul-stealing curse for nothing...

And today, he has finally accomplished something that has always been on his mind - he has completely unlocked the seal left by Professor Baker on the book.

Although Professor Baker had made it clear that only he could read the contents of the book, in order to prevent his roommates or classmates in the library from wondering why he was holding a large blank book and reading it with gusto, he still chose to read it in the Room of Requirement. Opened this book for the first time.

'What is the lowest level, the most essential mystery...'

Full of expectation, Avada opened the first page of the book - inside was a neatly folded piece of parchment with a few lines of small words written on it.

"Is this a message from Professor Baker?"

Avada unfolded the parchment curiously and read the content on it:

[Ken:]

[Congratulations, you have finally completely unlocked the seal I left. I hope you can still have some impression of me, a professor who has been away for several years. If I guessed correctly, you will definitely not be obedient. If you wait until sixth grade to open this book, you can break this seal in advance with your ability. 】

[I can't confirm what your secret is yet, so I can't predict exactly when you will open this book, but I can guess - probably fifth grade or fourth grade? Or if you can get some secret knowledge in advance, it's possible for you to be in third grade... It can't be second grade, right? 】

"I didn't expect that."

Looking at the contents of the letter, Avada couldn't help but smile: He really opened the seal in the second grade, and it was less than two months after school started!

[If you can really break this seal alone in the second grade, then this means that the secret in you is the most outrageous of all my guesses, but this is probably unlikely. And please don’t worry, I didn’t cast any magic on this book that would make it sense to me as soon as it is opened, although I did consider doing so...]

"..."

[First of all, I have to apologize to you and Mr. Shafiq. When I asked you for help, I deliberately concealed something, about the one that carries my consciousness and should now be in the hands of Mr. Shafiq. That black crystal ball—but don’t be nervous, it’s not a dangerous thing. 】

[You have also seen that that thing is a dark magic item, and I have personally admitted this, but in fact you still underestimated the origin of that thing. Maybe if you have enough experience in secretly browsing the restricted area (I often did this when I was a student anyway), maybe you will have heard of the word "horcrux". 】

[Horcruxes are generally considered to be the most evil form of black magic in the world. It was created by the "despicable Herbo" from the chocolate frog picture, and has only one function: to make the unleasher of black magic immortal. 】

——He was actually willing to take the initiative to say it? !

[And its principle is to split the soul-this is also something I concealed. At that time, it was not just my consciousness that was locked into the crystal ball, but my entire soul. And the way to split a soul, I can tell you right here: it requires a malicious murder. Killing must be done with malice, in self-defense or to punish evil. It will not work - you must clearly realize that the next killing is a very evil thing, which is enough to split your soul. Meet the prerequisites for making a Horcrux. 】

[Seeing this, you will probably be very angry, thinking that I am a heinous dark wizard - but don’t forget, I promised when I signed the contract that I have never done evil and will never do evil in the future. . 】

[The above method of splitting souls is only the most primitive version, and it is also the only version known to people in the magical world. This is why I won’t let you tell other professors about me - they will all directly assume that I have committed an evil murder. , and then treated me as a dark wizard without hesitation. No matter what explanation I gave, it had no effect at all. 】

[But what they, and you, don’t know is that thousands of years after the despicable Haierbo created the Horcrux, there are several generations of geniuses in the corners of the world who have already discovered the essence hidden under the surface and are interested in the Horcrux. Magic has been improved and changed from generation to generation. And I gained this knowledge in the process of constantly fighting dark wizards. 】

[The Horcrux magic I use no longer requires splitting the soul in such an evil way. 】

[As for the specific principles and methods, please allow me to hold off for the time being - after all, this book contains detailed relevant content. As for why I keep fighting dark wizards and collecting this knowledge, and why I choose to make Horcruxes, I have no comment. 】

"..."

Avada stared blankly at these lines, not even glancing at the content immediately below.

From these few lines, he can realize how vast and mysterious the magical world beyond the original work is.

[You may have guessed that the content in this book records the secrets of the soul. In addition, there are some more mysterious things - so if you want to study the above content, you must be cautious. It may be more complicated than you think. 】

[To be honest, before I got out of trouble, I never thought about handing over these materials to others. The contents inside are too mysterious and dangerous. If it falls into the hands of someone with ulterior motives, the consequences may be unimaginable. And since you were chosen by Hufflepuff and possess unprecedented abilities, I think if I give these to you, you might have the opportunity to bring some beneficial changes to our world. 】

[This book is a collection of research materials on dark wizards that I obtained during many journeys, so there will be some contents in it that are quite uncomfortable to read. But don’t worry, almost all the practitioners of those contents have been defeated by me and received the punishment they deserve. So you just need to read the knowledge inside with awe of life and regret for the deceased. 】

[Okay, that’s it for now. You’re probably getting impatient now—then I wish you success in your studies, a happy life, and the ability to make good use of the knowledge in the book. 】

【Benjamin Baker】

"Professor Baker... seems to be a person with a lot of stories,"

After Avada sighed, she finally opened the table of contents of the book to see what was recorded in it——

"Part 1: "Discussing the structure of the human soul based on the principles of the Unforgivable Curse - Verification of the three-layer theory of the soul."
