"So tell me more about Ophelius. What is this book? What's so special about it? "Severus playfully asked.
[Mmmm…. well. Ophelius is a book that contains several spells of all kinds.]
Interest sparkled in Severus' eyes "Be it fire, water, necromantic, or dark? "Severus asked curiously.
[As far as I know, the gods created nine different books of different categories of spells and magic. It was for their own use and research]
This new knowledge completely hooked Severus so he became very curious and asked several questions, "So is Ophelius, one of them?"
[Luckily it's not]
Severus was confused. "Why luckily? Isn't it unlucky that it isn't one of them? Just think about it if those books get into the hands of mortals then they will become as powerful as gods. Isn't it good?"
[Severus becoming a god isn't all about eating and enjoying life. There are many things that they do in secret to protect the mortals. So stop belittling them]
"Sorry but can't help it," Severus spoked furiously.
"Some resentments are hard to cross and Severus had one too.
[This child. ufffff] Noworry sighed.
[Okay Severus. Stop pouting already and listen to me]
"Yes, yes, tell me."
[Once there was a greedy mortal, a necromancer to be specific. He was highly intelligent and skilled. He had everything that a mortal wishes for. A lovely family, a beautiful wife, kids, money, leisure, and anything you name, but sadly, he also has a great appetite. He was an extremely greedy man who performed taboo spells and dark magic for knowledge. To be specific he was greedy for knowledge, but the knowledge that he wanted, was taboo so he faced retributions from the divine books. He used shady methods to read those nine books and made handmade notes and later combined them in a form of the book]
Severus broke into sweats and his heart thumped loudly, "Don't tell me that notes which he combined, were later named as OPHELIUS"
[Why do you think it's not Ophelius?] Noworry asked gravely.
"This doesn't feel good"
[It is not good in the first place. Stealing from gods gives you punishments from heaven and do remember. Heaven is heaven for only those who see it as heaven. Otherwise, it's just hell]
[If you steal from heaven then...!!!!!!!!!!!!]
"Then....". Severus asked seriously
[All the hell would break upon you and you will be considered as a sinner for eternity receiving punishments]
"Damn, it's scary"contemporary romance
[Yeah. It is scary. Back to the topic, that dinner was very powerful and even gods had a hard time dealing with him. At last, the lord of the underworld, Hades performed an exorbitant spell and ceased him.]
"Wow"
Astonishment fitted in Severus' eyes, "Didn't that sinner have a counter for it since he already had the knowledge of Nine books?"
[You are forgetting. A book is just a medium to store knowledge. True knowledge is always stored inside our brain]
"Yeah, I agree"
[So Hades ceased that sinner and buried him inside the earth while putting a curse on that book to protect the earth]
Severus had several questions running inside his mind. Finally, he asked the one which was bugging him the most, "So, nobody knows where the sinner is buried or where is the book"
[Well, nobody except Hades knows the burial of sinners but about the book. It's a different case. Although Hades put a curse on that book but due to the curse, a will kindled.]
"A will?'
[Yes, Will of the book]
"What's that? Is it any other form of spell?"
[The will of that book is a no joke]
"Okay"
"Will a book. What's that? Tell?"
[You know about the will of God?]
Severus shook his head.
[Ayooo. Do you even know anything?] Noworry sighed.
"HEHEHEH"
[Don't show your teeth you look ugly]
Severus"...."
For god sake, no, for Hate's sake, I am a handsome guy. How can you even say that I look ugly? Severus complained inwardly.
[Do you remember what I told you inside the chamber of secrets?]
"Yeah, you told something about god's will"
[Yes. That door of the Chamber can only be opened if God wishes. In other words, if anyone wishes to enter inside the chamber of the secret, he needs god's acknowledgment otherwise they would be killed the instant they place their foot inside. If the gods don't allow it, then no one can enter ]
"Then how did we enter? I don't have god's acknowledgment"
[Who told you that you don't have one?]
Severus"...."
"Excuse me, I never performed any ritual for god's acknowledgment so how can I be acknowledged?"
Severus was confused. All these things made him baffled.
[Even I am not sure why you are acknowledged by him] Noworyy murmured.
"Hmm, did you say something?"
[I said I don't know why they acknowledged a fool like you]
Severus"...."
