Harry Potter and the Secret Treasures

The Resurrection Stone had the magical power to summon the dead back to this world. But the resurrected were not in the form of souls, nor memories, nor were they truly resurrected beings.

They took on a unique form, capable of awakening the deepest sorrow in the soul of the person using the Resurrection Stone.

Unable to make contact with the dead, this grief would eventually lead the person to commit suicide.

Therefore, since ancient times, the Resurrection Stone had been a terrible weapon and a temptation of Death.

As long as there was a memory of the deceased in the heart, there was no way to resist the influence of the power of the Resurrection Stone.

Voldemort was made to cry by it, and Dumbledore was addicted to it and couldn’t extricate himself. It was really scary…

Looking at Dumbledore’s nostalgic and sad look, Evan thought it was best not to ask about his sister or the Resurrection Stone in detail.

Especially since this stone also involved the secret of the Deathly Hallows and Grindelwald, it was very sensitive.

If Dumbledore thought Evan should know these things, he would divulge them.

He had never known that the Resurrection Stone could split a person’s soul into a Horcrux. No matter how he thought about it, it was incredible.

“Professor, Riddle just said that he entered the world of Death through the Resurrection Stone?” Evan asked.

“Oh, yes, he entered that strange world and saw the spirit of Death!” Dumbledore pondered, slowly speaking. “It sounds amazing, doesn’t it? We must admit, the timing of Death’s appearance was perfect. Although it split Tom’s soul, it actually saved him, at least a part of his soul. This was the main reason why he was confident that I could spare him, from the perspective of the soul, he is Voldemort before his fall…”

“But why would Death do that? Who is he?” said Evan. “I mean, this ring has been passed down for so long, from the Peverell family to the Slytherin family, and then to the Gaunt family, with thousands of years of history, countless owners, yet besides Riddle, no one has encountered such an anomaly. Just as he acquired the ring, his soul was split, which sounds highly unusual.”

“Yes, it is very abnormal; you have hit the crux of the matter, Evan,” said Dumbledore calmly, carefully examining the ring in his hand. “This is the most inexplicable part of his story. Unless he’s lying, I lean toward the idea that the magic formed by the ring and the Resurrection Stone was specifically prepared for Tom. Death was waiting for him, so when he appeared, the magic was activated, splitting his soul—entrapping the part that entered the ring due to his love and sorrow for his mother, preserved in a special way, as a Horcrux…”

“This sounds like a deliberate protection for Riddle, seemingly harmful but actually a special safeguard,” said Evan, feeling more certain about his previous guess. “The only wizard I know who has such incredible power and is willing to protect Riddle is Salazar Slytherin, he once knew the story of his last descendant from me. With that guy’s character, he wouldn’t just stand by and let his bloodline vanish.”

“Proud Slytherin!” Dumbledore agreed, his piercing blue eyes turning to Evan. “In fact, since you went back to a thousand years ago and met the Four Founders, time and history have been altered! I dare say, in these past two years, I have found more magic and relics left by ancient wizards than in the past few decades combined. That’s the power of time magic.”

“It sounds terrifying!” Evan couldn’t help but say, not at all surprised by altering history.

He remembered what the Titan Cronos had said to him, that time magic was the most mysterious field of magic, with infinite possibilities and uncertainties.

Time in this world was like a tangled web, and those within could not tell where the starting point was and where the ending point was.

Countless timelines were intertwined with everything, independent of each other but influencing each other, and jointly shaping the entire world.

Each historical event was like a link point on the web. Different results would lead history in different directions.

Using a Time-Turner to go back and forth in time would change these key link points, redirecting history onto new trajectories.

But at the same time, time had unique characteristics: different timelines were independent of each other.

Because of the existence of these link points, different timelines overlapped and even influenced each other at specific time nodes.

What happened in the past might be your future, and similarly, what happened in the future could be your past.

Being too entangled and trying to figure out all the clues on the timeline would end up getting lost in time…

For now, because Evan had only used the Time-Turner once, things were not that complicated yet.

In the normal timeline where Evan didn’t exist, Slytherin also wouldn’t know about Voldemort’s affairs and naturally wouldn’t leave any magic behind.

So, fifteen-year-old Tom Riddle took the ring from Morfin and went to the Riddle Mansion not far away to kill his father and grandparents.

He put the blame on Morfin and returned to Hogwarts to continue his studies and find the secret of making Horcruxes.

Before he killed his father with his own hands, he could only be described as a young man with a dark personality and extreme ideas.

That was not surprising, considering the environment in which he had grown up.

But after killing his father with his own hands and completing the first murder in his life, he completely degenerated.

Regardless of whether there was love or other positive spirits in his soul, they vanished in the complete fall.

Eventually, he became the terrifying Voldemort.

And half a century later, Dumbledore came here to complete the redemption of his sins, paying the price with his life.

But in the current time, Evan appeared and went back to Hogwarts a thousand years ago to meet the Four Founders. Many things on the timeline had changed and history had been altered.

Thinking about it, as the four most outstanding wizards in history, after knowing the current situation of the Wizarding World from Evan, it was impossible for Gryffindor, Slytherin, Ravenclaw, and Hufflepuff to only leave tests and secret treasures and doing nothing else.

They had their own ideas, their will and beliefs that needed to be maintained, and they also had the ability and power to change history.

Put yourself in their shoes. If Evan had this opportunity, he would certainly do something as well.

Of course, as an insignificant part of the time network, he now only felt the dread…

Dreadful time magic, no wonder the Ministry of Magic was strict in regulation, prohibiting all wizards from researching it.
