บท 76: 76- Yes, this wound was caused by a dog bite
"What's wrong with him?" Daphne also noticed Hagrid's odd behavior: he seemed to be avoiding Rhys and her, looking quite sneaky.
"Hmm.. He wants to raise something that's not allowed in the magical world."
"What?"
"A dragon. The book he was holding just now is related to dragon care. If you're curious, you could investigate the books he's borrowed. You might find more evidence."
Daphne immediately got up and dashed out. A few minutes later, she returned with Hagrid's borrowing list.
"<Dragons of Great Britain and Ireland>, <From Egg to Inferno>, <Dragon Breeding for Pleasure and Profit>—just by reading the titles on Hagrid's borrowing list, Daphne confirmed that Hagrid was indeed planning to raise a dragon.
Regarding Hagrid's desire to raise a dragon, Daphne's reaction was: oh.
The Greengrass family had raised dragons centuries ago; it wasn't a big deal. The Ministry of Magic now banned wizards from raising dragons only because they were too easily spotted by Muggles, violating the Statute of Secrecy.
Hagrid living on the edge of the Forbidden Forest, raising one shouldn't cause too much trouble. But could he really handle such a big creature?
Daphne and Rhys had remarkably similar attitudes towards Hagrid's plan to raise a dragon: if he wants to, let him.
Rhys was even a bit excited: no need to buy dragon blood and other potion ingredients anymore!
To this end, he eagerly prepared a few potion recipes, all dragon nutritional supplements, aiming to get on good terms with Hagrid and obtain some dragon materials.
After this brief interlude, Rhys finally found the book he needed amidst a pile of dust-covered volumes.
"'An Examination of Medieval Fairy Tale Prototypes—Every Legend Has Its Source,' this book looks reliable." Rhys opened the book and quickly found what he was looking for.
Daphne leaned in and read the title: *The Origin of the Three Brothers — The Peverell Family from Godric's Hollow.*
"Godric's Hollow?!" she exclaimed, immediately thinking of the Potter family living in Godric's Hollow and the invisibility cloak Harry possessed.
If it were just one clue, it might have been a coincidence, but with all this information lining up, calling it a coincidence seemed far-fetched.
Rhys turned to the relevant page and began reading the text.
[The origin of the Three Brothers legend, according to the author, is highly likely to be the Peverell brothers: Antioch, Cadmus, and Ignotus, who were active in the mid-to-late 12th century in western England.
The three were masters of Transfiguration and Alchemy and were highly respected in their local area (Godric's Hollow). Their relationship with the legendary wizard Godric Gryffindor is uncertain. Some believe they received Gryffindor's inheritance. The author considers this unlikely because the timeline between the three brothers and Gryffindor is at least a century apart, and Gryffindor was not known for alchemy.
The eldest brother, Antioch, possessed a powerful wand, the prototype of the Elder Wand, characterized by its inability to be passed down except through dueling, giving it a notorious reputation. Many wizards claimed to have possessed the Elder Wand throughout history; for further details, please refer to "Dark Wizards in History: Volumes Four and Five."
Cadmus, the second brother, was highly skilled in alchemy and is the prototype for the Resurrection Stone owner. It is said that he created a stone capable of summoning the apparitions of the dead. The Gaunt family, descendants of Slytherin and one of the Sacred Twenty-Eight, claimed to possess the Resurrection Stone.
Ignotus, the youngest brother, owned a cloak of invisibility with an exceptionally long duration. The symbol of the Deathly Hallows on his tombstone is the strongest evidence that the Peverell brothers were the originals of the Three Brothers legend. His granddaughter, Iolanthe Peverell, married the wealthy Hardwin Potter. Iolanthe rarely discussed the invisibility cloak, stating it lost its power upon her grandfather's death, suggesting that the cloak's existence might be exaggerated.]
"You see, the book records it very clearly."
After reading the article, Rhys was almost 100% certain that the cloak Harry possessed was one of the Deathly Hallows.
Iolanthe inherited her grandfather's wisdom, successfully diverting public attention, and since the cloak's effect wasn't as dazzling as the other two Hallows, it had been passed down through the Potter family.
Of course, seeing the book use terms like "descendants of Slytherin," Rhys was also quite angry.
He could guess what his good godson, Gaunt, had done after he fell into slumber. He was sure he wouldn't "rise from the grave," and after the other founders gradually passed away, Gaunt had taken the wand and other relics Rhys had left him to Hogwarts, falsely claiming to be Slytherin's heir.
Due to the lack of knowledgeable people, Hogwarts actually believed it!
Luckily, he hadn't told Gaunt the location of his slumber; otherwise, how could he have ever woken up?
It seemed like it was time to visit the Gaunt family.
Since they had taken on his name, it wouldn't be too much for an ancestor to ask for a stone from his descendants, right?
"Merlin!" Daphne exclaimed, expressing her deep inner astonishment. "That Potter is actually a descendant of the Three Brothers, and the cloak he holds is one of the Deathly Hallows!"
However, after the brief astonishment, came the shattering of the filter.
"But that cloak doesn't seem all that special—I admit it has near-eternal magic imbued in it, but so what? When an ordinary invisibility cloak loses its effectiveness, you just buy another one."
To Daphne, the Invisibility Cloak was far less appealing than the other two Hallows.
If she wanted to become invisible, she could either buy several invisibility cloaks or use the Disillusionment Charm that Rhys had taught her—it wasn't that she couldn't afford a lot of invisibility clocks, but the Disillusionment Charm was simply more cost-effective.
The Elder Wand and the Resurrection Stone, on the other hand, were in a completely different league; you couldn't just buy those with money.
"Any alchemical artifact that involves eternity can't possibly be mediocre," Rhys had a broader perspective than Daphne.
He knew that the invisibility effect of the cloak might be its most insignificant function. Just like a wizard's wand could be used to roast meat skewers, but that was obviously a secondary function.
The two began to discuss Harry's Invisibility Cloak, almost forgetting about Hagrid's little antics until someone came to remind them...
"So you're saying this was caused by a dog bite?"
Rhys looked at Ron with a "Are you kidding me?" expression.
Ron's complexion shifted, his ears turning red. He stubbornly insisted that the green-tinged wound on his hand was from a dog bite.
"Oh, then there's no cure. Just wait to die. Goodbye, I have to write my History of Magic essay," Rhys responded with a three-hit combo, dealing a critical blow to Ron's spirit.
Ron: Huh?!
