Capítulo 199: Top? Bottom?
In his newly found room on the seventh floor which Loki had named the puzzle room, he sat down in his chair while sipping tea, thinking about the current problem in front of him.
'So something in the school is causing weakness in students' bodies.'
'It could be the work of a demoness, a beyonder item, or something else entirely.'
'Maybe something like what a member of the Abyss pathway can do? Except they are using a Beyonder item to do it? Like the book in the second year?'
'After all, 'He' is supposed to be the villain of the Harry Potter books right?'
'Or is there some twist that I'm unable to see, for now?'
Loki thought some more and thought thoroughly about everything. That was when a thought struck him.
'Hadn't Mr. A said he came to Hogwarts for another task when I battled him in the chambers protecting the Philosopher's Stone?'
'Perhaps the seed of evil he planted back then ended up sprouting only now?'
'But what would take an entire year? And how did it go unnoticed by the teachers?'
Loki thought about a window to the school grounds and the room formed one for him on the wall in front of which he was sitting, allowing him to take a peak over the grounds to spot something that would indicate what was happening.
But the grounds were empty.
'Is it just another drama for Harry to act in and emerge as a Hero?'
'No. This seems unplanned. It looked like it almost caught 'Adam' off guard.'
'Then who is it?'
'Who can catch someone that is at the very least an angel, off guard?'
'A king of Angels or someone that's a True God?'
'Hmm…this is tricky…either one makes it hard to even think about the event any more.'
'Can I even think more about this situation while I'm outside?'
His thoughts paused there and he held off from thinking about it anymore.
He left the puzzle room and moved toward his dorm room where, after creating a wall of spirituality to seal his room from outside interferences, he performed the ritual to step into the Sefirah Castle.
Once inside, Loki sat down on his chair and closed his eyes to let his thoughts move and think about all the things that had happened until now.
'The castle grounds, the sickness, Sirius Black and Peter Pettigrew, the riddle that Salazar Slytherin gave me, the bodies of the founders, You-Know-Who being a villain.'
'And above all the aurora order being after me.'
'What does it all mean?'
Creating pictures to match each of his thoughts Loki projected a hologram in front of himself with his illusion abilities as he looked at his thoughts thrown out in front of him.
It gave him a different perspective, literally.
As soon as Loki looked carefully at one of the holograms, his mind began to burst with different ideas.
'No…it can't be.'
'...but if it is 'Her', why is 'She' working with the Aurora Order? And more importantly, how is 'She' working?'
Loki's fingers trembled at the thoughts that were shooting past his mind, yet he remained fixed on following those streams of thoughts to see where they would eventually lead.
Would they find the ocean or would they remain a lake, bound by walls after coming to a dead end?
After much careful consideration, Loki decided to step out of the Sefirah Castle.
'I don't understand much just yet, but whatever it is, safety should be my number one priority.'
As soon as Loki emerged into his room, however, he did not disable the wall of spirituality that surrounded him. Instead, he started a bestowment ritual to give himself a vial of Unicorn Blood that had already gone bad.
And then for the first time since he had owned it, Loki used the Necklace of Giants to summon a ring of twilight from the necklace as its centre and placed the vial of polluted unicorn blood in it.
Almost immediately, the dark and dirty Unicorn blood began to bubble and steam up, causing reddish blood-like vapours to escape from it and float away into the air.
Loki continued to provide spirituality to the necklace for as long as he could to keep the necklace working to purify the vials of Unicorn blood he had.
There was a constant sizzling sound inside his room throughout the night as he collected multiple 'fresh' vials of Unicorn blood to protect himself from what was to come.
In between each use however, he had to pacify the Necklace by telling it stories about giants, which he did by talking about a great land in the distant past that was currently hidden from the world, a land that the giants ruled.
Definitely not a made-up story that he'd seen somewhere.
Once morning fell, Loki with a tired expression, sent back all the vials above the grey fog but kept one on himself, by strapping it to his body using his wand holder.
Eventually, after he freshened himself up, Loki first went to classroom 2-21 to use the camera for a while and then went to the Owlery, where he wrote a short letter of a detailed plan that he had come up with during the night and sent it off to its recipient.
'I can only do this much.'
'I don't know a lot about what is going on, so the best bet is to swindle Mr. X into giving me information.'
'I just hope he doesn't call my bluff and figure out exactly how much I know and how I am trying to toe the line to learn more about what's going on.'
Sirius picked up the new letter that he'd just received and looked at what was written in it.
'I want you to send a new piece of information to the Aurora Order.'
Flipping the letter, Sirius found a new parchment, with exquisite handwriting like always, which was very different from how the letters addressed to him were written, a loser couldn't bargain after all, and began to read the contents.
'I have intercepted the letters between Sirius Black and Gehrman Sparrow. I don't know who Gehrman Sparrow is however, whenever he picks up his letters he uses a Beyodner item to hide his identity and is very careful.
The drawing you gave us is of a fake identity, no such student exists.
However, the letters I have intercepted contain something surprising in it, they discuss plans to interfere with the Aurora Order's plans.
The content of their plans remains unclear and eludes me since they are using wordplay to keep their plans a secret.
But from the very first note I intercepted, which was more explanatory and didn't use encryptions, I gleaned that they were working against a certain demigod and planned to cause harm to 'Them' directly.
Attached with this letter is a picture of their first conversation and their corresponding letters that used wordplay, I've only included half the pictures since I haven't received payment for the first bit of information I gave you.
I will send you the rest when I have my payment first, and I want you to double it, because what I'm doing is very risky, or forget me even trying anymore.'
Sirius then looked at the several photographs Loki had included and read the first one, it was short and simple.
'I've narrowed down the location of the residence. I can attack it at any time. But unfortunately, because my strength hasn't fully recovered yet, so I cannot kill.'
Sirius looked at the other pictures-
'I will cover the top. You cover the bottom. All that needs to be done after that is use a spark to create a fire fueled by passion.'
-but decided to stop when his mental health started degrading.
