·Chapter 255dShareChapter 25: Third Eye
Before we knew it, it was almost January. In recent times, Alexander had been making Fairy Fire non-stop, enjoying Fairy Fire BBQ, and using it to conduct some alchemical experiments after a long time.
December 12th was Christmas, and Penelope and Kate mentioned in a roundabout way in their letter that they should meet Alexander again at Hogsmeade on Christmas Day.
Alexander was speechless. Hogwarts had a holiday at Christmas. The holiday was also very long, and they didn't go back to school until the beginning of January. Neither of these two had a home.
The most important thing was that Alexander already went to Hogwarts almost every evening. The Phoenix Legend of Ravenclaw was almost known to everyone in Hogwarts.
Why did they still need to write letters after meeting each other so often? Even Kate seemed to have been led astray by Penelope.
Having said that, with Alexander's unremitting efforts, the Phoenix Incarnation finally reached level 2, and the Nirvana skills it contained were finally activated. Skills related to major events in his future life, Alexander couldn't afford to be careless.
Alexander had been constantly using his thinking skills in the past month. Even his detection skills had mutated again, creating a strange wizarding intuition. He could always find relevant information that seemed unrelated on the surface and tied to books.
Alexander finally discovered that Nirvana could indeed regenerate, but it must wait until old age or serious injury. The memory problem after rebirth, which he was most concerned about, could also be preserved under the skill of thinking. Nirvana was like a good sleep.
During this reflection, Alexander also discovered a side of wizards other than magical properties and talents.
The detection skill came from Alexander's unwillingness to be unable to sense the aura of magic. With the help of his imagination and talent, it was closer to the identification skill in games. As Alexander's research on magic deepened, he could even link invisible spells. Under special circumstances, he could also come into contact with the magic magnetic field.
Recently, he had even gotten closer to the Third Eye mentioned by the prophets. As long as he thought about it, Alexander could always find the knowledge he needed, but it had to be related to magic. This might be related to the power of magic knowledge itself. What he was looking for wasn't just knowledge — finding a magic book was a re-derivative of his previous skill.
Just like Alexander's detective skills, wizards actually had strange intuitions. For example, the production of potions could only be made by craftsmen according to the standards in the books, but to become a master, the control of magic power must be put in and out according to intuition. Only with different quantities could one truly make a potion that could be called excellent.
There was also "I", who had a strange intuition in alchemy and mathematics. Alexander inherited this after traveling through time. With the help of his father's manuscript, he completed the Black Knight.
The most well-known wizard's intuition was the Third Eye.
Prophecies were actually not as rare as imagined. In the Department of Mysteries of the Ministry of Magic, there were many things that only a small number of wizards could access and study. The wizards who worked there were called Silent People, including love, space, thought, time, death, prophecy, and so on. They researched all of these.
There was a special prophecy hall here. Countless true prophecies were contained in crystal balls. Each one was true and valid, but not all of them would happen. A prophecy was only a possibility, telling the truth.
The true prophecy itself was magical and could not be faked. The prophets who made the prophecy could not control it, and the wizards who heard it could not forget it.
With so many crystal balls mentioned in the original work, one could only imagine how many prophets or wizards there were.
This kind of intuition was even more reflected in the possible prediction of the future. Although the Divination class at Hogwarts was considered ignorant and ridiculous in the eyes of people without talent such as Harry and Hermione, in the eyes of truly talented wizards, every course was an exercise and development of the Third Eye.
Not every prophet was as crazy as Sybill Trelawney and thought they were a liar.
As the great-great-great-granddaughter of the famous prophet Cassandra, on extremely rare occasions, Sybil would slip into a trance, make a true prophecy, and then return to normal.
Her overly powerful prophecy ability prevented her from remembering her predictions like other prophets. After the prediction was made, she forgot about it.
If the Department of Mysteries didn't have a magical item with a magical power similar to the Hogwarts Book of Admission, every prophecy made in the UK would have been recorded and finally entered into the crystal ball.
This was probably the only prophecy Sybil had ever had recorded. This was why Divination and Arithmancy had never been abolished. But it may also be because Dumbledore was too impressed with his "boyfriend" who had the ability to predict the future.
Ordinary prophets made prophecies while they were in a semi-awake state. They could remember a small part of the predictions and truly knew that they had celestial vision and talent.
Speaking of which, Professor Sybill Trelawney could also predict something through tools when she was awake, but she often didn't believe it herself.
Thinking of this, in the memory palace, the book Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince automatically moved without wind, Chapter 10: Gaunt's Old House:
[Harry walked quickly through the empty corridor. Suddenly, he saw Professor Trelawney turning the corner, shuffling a deck of dirty playing cards in her hand, reading the numbers on the cards, and talking to herself. Muttering to himself, Harry quickly ducked behind a statue.
"Two of Spades: conflict;" she muttered as she walked past where Harry was hiding: "Seven of Spades: omen; ten of Spades: violence; Jack of Spades: a young man with dark hair, probably distraught and unwilling to be interrogated—"
She stopped and stood on the other side of the statue where Harry was hiding.
"Oh, this must be wrong," she said in annoyance, and Harry heard her vigorously reshuffling the cards as she moved forward, leaving only the smell of sherry behind her. ...]
Professor Sybill Trelawney was so sad, maybe it was a curse. After all, her family traced back to being a priestess of Apollo. She was cursed by Apollo for making prophecies at will and passed it down from generation to generation.
"What a shame," Alexander sighed. If Professor Sybill Trelawney's intuition were replaced by potions, alchemy, and magic, she would probably be a great wizard again, instead of being looked down upon by McGonagall, who is also a professor, or even being looked down upon by a junior official, Urimchi, who made things difficult for her and almost drove her away.
It's best to replace talent with strength so that others don't dare to make things difficult for you.
In order to protect Professor Sybill Trelawney, Dumbledore hid the identity of the prophet who made her prophecy of the Savior Star. No wizard knew that the prophecy that led Voldemort to his death came from the mouth of a crazy liar professor.
But this also resulted in her not having the bonus of fame, and the only identity she could tell was that she was the great-great-granddaughter of the prophet Cassandra.
Voldemort should also have understood the prophecy. After learning part of the prophecy from Snape, he decided that it was a true prophecy and went to kill him.
After hearing this prophecy, Voldemort probably wouldn't have been so stupid.
The key to this prophecy is that the Dark Lord marks him as a powerful enemy. Having powers that the Dark Lord doesn't understand is not the key. Only the marked Son of Prophecy is the real Son of Prophecy and Voldemort's powerful enemy. In the end, only one of the two can survive.
In fact, as long as Voldemort didn't attack a family that had defeated the Dark Lord three times, he could survive on Horcruxes for a long time.
If Alexander, a wizarding family like Voldemort, could withstand his two attacks, he would never attack them personally again. Wouldn't it be possible to train his subordinates or win them over?
Prophecy will only take effect if you believe it and implement it.
Otherwise, how could there be so many true prophecies that did not take effect in the Prophecy Hall?
