The first White Lord of Hogwarts - Chapter 103
“This is the cursed gold coin.”The cursed gold coin is just a sample. As for the sarcophagus, it is now stored in Gringotts.
What is the point of putting it in Gringotts?
Ivan didn’t understand what the Ministry of Magic was thinking. It was obviously a cursed item, but it was handed over to the goblins and kept by outsiders.
Did they really not treat goblins as outsiders?
Ivan ignored Fudge and focused on the cursed gold coin.
If Ivan might have had some doubts before, then now, after witnessing the strange magic emitted by the gold coin with his own eyes, he could confirm 100% that this was the test prepared by the system for him.
“Did you see anything, Albus?”
Fudge saw Dumbledore observing the gold coin for a long time without saying anything, and he became a little anxious.
“Wait, don’t worry, Connelly”
“257” Dumbledore took out the wand. The wand that looked like a dead tree branch in the eyes of others was so dazzling in Ivan’s eyes.
In terms of magic power alone, the old wand was the most terrifying magic prop Ivan had ever seen.
It was hard to imagine how such a wand was made.
“The curse on it is very strange.”
Dumbledore tapped the gold coin with his wand, floating it in the air, and looked at it carefully.
Seeing this, the officials of the Ministry of Magic remained silent.
There was no other way, because among all the people present, Dumbledore was the authority in the field of magic.
“Ivan”
“I am here”
“”Did you see anything?”
Dumbledore’s words attracted everyone’s attention.
What was going on?
The headmaster was actually asking a little wizard what he thought?
“It’s an incredible curse that can be self-sufficient.”
Ivan ignored everyone’s reaction. Like Dumbledore, he wholeheartedly wanted to understand the principle of the cursed gold coin.
“Hmm.”
Dumbledore:”Continue”
“The gold coin itself is a product of alchemy.”
Ivan:”In addition, according to the degree of change of magic power, I judge that the magic on it has existed for at least 400 years, or even 500 years.”
In five hundred years, even for magic props, most of the magic on them will dissipate.
But this cursed gold coin remains intact.
Not only that, it can cast a curse on Muggles again after 500 years.
In Ivan’s concept, the only magic that can remain immortal for hundreds of years is Hogwarts Castle and the relics of the Big Four.
Of course, the Three Deathly Hallows must also be magical items of this level, and they are even more mysterious than the former.
But the problem is that this is just a cursed gold coin.
“Nearly a thousand gold coins, if they all retain their original power,”Ivan:”It is hard to imagine how powerful the curse on them would be.”
“So?”
Fudge didn’t understand why Ivan was the only one talking:”What do you want to say?”
He wanted to know what Dumbledore was doing.
Was he giving a lesson to the little wizard?
“Ivan meant that this was a curse that could not be broken violently.
Dumbledore was very disappointed with Fudge. He returned all his magical knowledge to the professor after graduation.
“Break it with violence?”
“In other words, St. Mungo’s Hospital, potions, and the End of All Curses are all ineffective against it?”
Scrimgeour finally understood what the two meant. He widened his eyes and said,”I have never seen such a curse.” (To read the exciting novels, go to Faloo Novel Network!)
“In fact, there are many such curses.
Ivan casually gave Scrimgeour many examples, such as vampires, werewolves, and blood-cursed orcs. These are curses rooted in the blood and cannot be forcibly broken.
To be honest, to this day, the method of how these beings can restore their human bodies has long been lost.
“What should we do then?”
Fudge didn’t want to hear this, he just wanted to know how to solve this problem.
“It can be relieved.”
Dumbledore shook his head and put the cursed gold coin back:”Using potions and special spells, Muggles can recover temporarily.”
“But this is obviously not enough.”
Fudge:”There are already at least twenty Muggles under this curse, the Ministry of Magic can’t make them disappear forever.”
Cleansing the memory of Muggles and making them forget something is what the Ministry of Magic can do.
But making a group of Muggles disappear completely.
Even if the Ministry of Magic can do it easily, Fudge can’t do it…..
Because this violates the laws of the Ministry of Magic and will leave a huge loophole, increasing the risk of exposure to the wizarding world.
“We need time, Cornelius.
Dumbledore would not ignore this question, but for a moment, he did not find a way to break the curse.[]
“Moreover, more of this kind of gold coins are needed.”
Cursed gold coins are important materials. With Dumbledore’s profound knowledge, he can find a way to break the curse in a week at most.
The solution here is not to break it by force, but to find the way to break the curse originally set.
If this thing is really the Aztec cursed gold coin, then the way to break it should be to let the person who took the gold coin return it and repay blood with blood.
Thinking of this, Ivan immediately used his magic eye and spiritual vision, and simulated the ratio of the curse and special blood in his mind.
And the result was just as Ivan thought, this thing is really an Aztec gold coin.
Should I tell Dumbledore?
For a moment, Ivan hesitated.
He trusts Dumbledore very much now, but now is obviously not the time to say this.
The officials of the Ministry of Magic and Fudge are all here. Ivan has been in the spotlight enough. If he jumps out again, he will easily become the target of public criticism.
Dumbledore also noticed this. He just looked at Fudge calmly, waiting for the reply of the Minister of Magic on 5.9
“Sure!”
Fudge said,”But the things are in Gringotts.”
“You know, no matter what it is, once it falls into the hands of those greedy goblins, it will not be so easy to get it out.”
So, why put the things in Gringotts?
Ivan found that the officials of the Ministry of Magic looked unhappy, so he turned on Legilimency.
Only then did he understand that the goblins of Gringotts had taken the sarcophagus away long before the Aurors found it.
In the end, the Ministry of Magic just intercepted the batch of cursed gold coins that had already leaked out from the goblins. The real big money is still inside Gringotts.
However, considering the special nature of these cursed gold coins, the powerful magic that can rival the relics of the four giants, it is impossible to make the goblins spit out the things.
