Harry Potter and the Secret Treasures

Chapter 1097: The Secret of the Vampires



Dumbledore and Grindelwald, two people who were destined to be together, ended up turning against each other.

But they were still friends, they still cared about each other, and they were still the one who understood the other best.

Although they might not have seen each other or spoken to each other for nearly a hundred years, this special relationship had never changed.

Because of the encounter when they were young, the incomprehensible relationship started and had continued ever since.

Whether it was Dumbledore or Grindelwald, their lives were full of legends, both being the greatest wizards.

For the Greater Good, they both acted upon this statement with practical actions!

Although none of their original ideas came true, they changed the world through their own efforts.

“You know what happened next, Evan. I won the duel, and I locked him up with my own hands.”

There was another silence, Evan opened his mouth, and in the end he didn’t ask whether Dumbledore had ever found out who struck Ariana dead.

Dumbledore should already know the answer, but Evan didn’t want him to say more.

The two stood silently in front of the gate of Nurmengard, lost in their thoughts, until Caresius came out.

He had a stern face and was wearing a set of pure black robes. His face looked paler than usual and bloodless.

Although he had just recovered, he was still the king of vampires, and his breath was colder than when Evan had seen him before.

“Caresius, have you recovered?” Evan asked hurriedly and walked over.

Through the crack in the gate, he saw a pair of blood-red eyes appear in the darkness, devoid of any emotion, silently staring at him, seeming to evoke the deepest fear in one’s heart, then with a snap, the gate of Nurmengard closed.

The owner of those eyes was the guard of Nurmengard, a dark creature as terrifying as the Dementors.

According to rumors, they were monsters created by Grindelwald to conquer the world.

Their exact appearance was not known as they remained hidden in the darkness, only their eyes visible.

“The magic has been undone, and the remaining injuries will gradually heal,” said Caresius, nodding respectfully at Dumbledore, and then looking down at Evan. “Evan, I learned everything from Dumbledore. I must thank you for defeating the statue of the evil god that night. I was a fool to think I could destroy it, thanks to you…” �

“It was actually Harry, if he hadn’t seen you being attacked, we wouldn’t have been able to arrive in time,” said Evan modestly.

“I will thank him. That boy, like you, has won the friendship of vampires!” said Caresius. “By the way, how is Elaine doing recently? I heard that she went to Hogwarts with you, that has always been her dream.”

“Don’t worry about her. We left Hogwarts early because of a little incident, along with Hermione,” said Evan. “They’re both at the headquarters of the Order of the Phoenix, you’ll see her soon. But let’s talk about Norway, Caresius. What’s the trouble with your family?”

He must have talked about it with Dumbledore, but Evan didn’t know the details.

He hadn’t had time to ask Dumbledore yet, but hearing it from Caresius might even be better.

“It is a seal, a seal left by Salazar Slytherin. My family is the guard of this seal, and for centuries, we have been maintaining it with the power of blood,” said Caresius, sighing. “It is our family’s responsibility, and Elaine’s parents gave their lives to maintain the seal.”

“Gave their lives?!” Evan didn’t know this point. Did Elaine’s parents die because of this?!

Dumbledore did not participate in the conversation between the two. He kept looking at the highest point of Nurmengard’s main tower.

“Yes, you know, the power of a vampire comes from blood. If you want to become a vampire, you must go through the first embrace and reach a blood covenant. In simpler terms, the original blood of the first embraced is replaced by the blood of a vampire,” said Caresius. “This magic is usually performed by powerful vampires, but our clan is a little different. When we reintroduce the blood back into the body of the first embraced, a little special blood will be added… …”

“Special blood? What is that?” Evan looked at him in surprise. “Where does this blood come from?”

Evan was no stranger to the first embrace. After all, Elaine had always been obsessed with it, wanting to turn him into a vampire.

But this was the first time he knew about special blood, which was not mentioned in any of the relevant magic books he’d read.

“It is right there with the seal, this special blood is left by Salazar Slytherin just like the seal. It is the proof of our clan, our strong foundation,” Caresius explained. “The magical power contained in this blood far exceeds the imagination of ordinary people. During the Embrace, we extract a drop and merge it into the body of the Embraced. The higher the fusion rate with this drop of blood, the greater the power and potential gained…”

“A rare kind of Black magic,” Dumbledore’s voice sounded, and he looked away from the main tower. “The transformation of the body requires the original magic power, and the transformed person needs to pay a considerable price, but there is no doubt that he will gain immense power. Voldemort has undergone this kind of transformation to become what he is now, but he did it more thoroughly. He was not satisfied with obtaining just a drop of blood, he took the whole body. If you ask me, this way of obtaining power is actually a curse.”

“Yes, it is a curse,” said Caresius. “In this way, my people and I have gained powers far beyond those of ordinary wizards and other vampires, but we also bear the responsibility of maintaining the seal and enduring the curse of fate upon us.”

“But why?” Evan asked, still somewhat puzzled.

“This has something to do with the monster Slytherin left in the seal. It is a powerful creature. When we first embraced him and became vampires, we established a connection with him. Whenever the power of the seal weakens, we hear him speak to us, commanding us to become his servants,” said Caresius. “According to legend, if the seal is opened and the terrible monster is revealed, all of our clan will become his servants or be swallowed directly by him. All my people are afraid of him.”

Evan looked at Caresius. If his understanding was correct, then the special blood actually came from what Caresius called a terrifying monster.

That was the evil god, so there was that special connection between them.

In other words, Caresius and his people used the blood of the evil god to become vampires.
