Harry Potter: The Legend of Demigods

Chapter 38 The past of this world

After Anakin rested, he walked over to the campfire. During this time, he gradually understood the meaning of "Son of the Starry Sky". The planets worshiped by the centaurs are from the solar system and are named after gods in Roman mythology. This makes him a "Son of the Stars," a being with a special connection to nature and the universe. He also began to speculate that there might be some connection between Greek mythology and this world, but this connection seemed to be severed for some reason.

"Son of the Starry Sky, I am coming to find you." Ronan said. "Before sending you back, I want you to meet our high priest, the leader of our centaurs tribe. You will be the first human to step into the sacrificial cave of our centaurs."

"Okay, of course I will," Anakin said. Harry and others wanted to follow, but were stopped by other centaurs. "Only children of the Starry Sky can go in. You can wait outside."

"Why is Anakin the only one allowed in?" Harry asked.

Anakin smiled, trying to calm their spirits. "The centaurs are good people, and they will not harm me. This place should have great meaning to them, and I believe this is an opportunity to reveal more information for us. You guys wait outside, I will be back as soon as possible ."

Hermione nodded, trusting Anakin's judgment despite her concerns. "Okay, we'll wait here, you have to be careful."

Accompanied by Ronan the Centaur, Anakin entered the entrance of the huge cave at the foot of the mountain. There were torches placed on both sides of the entrance, illuminating the passage ahead. The interior of the cave is spacious and solemn, with hanging decorations woven from feathers and branches. There are also some ancient murals on the walls, depicting the harmonious coexistence of horse people and nature. In the center of the sacrificial cave is a large fire. The blazing flames dance on the stone platform, reflecting a huge centaur sitting there.

This huge centaur is the high priest of the centaur tribe. He is tall and solemn. With his flowing mane and ancient tattoos flashing across his skin, he seemed to be a living fossil of nature. He waved his hand and told Ronan to step back.

Anakin felt that he was not just facing a creature, but a being that carried the wisdom and history of the tribe. The high priest's gaze was profound, as if he could see into every corner of Anakin's heart. Behind him, Anakin discovered that the walls were lined with statues of giant centaurs that seemed to guard the sacred cave.

"Son of Neptune," said the High Priest, his voice solemn and ancient, "Welcome to our sacrificial cave. We believe that you will bring about important changes. This is a mysterious moment. We will work with the power of nature. Communicate for wise guidance.”

"Oh, it seems you have discovered our heroes." In Anakin's confused eyes, the high priest continued: "Each statue represents a centaur hero, and their heroic deeds have been praised by us for thousands of years. .”

"You, how do you know that I have a relationship with Poseidon?" Anakin asked the question he wanted to ask most now.

The high priest answered with a smile, his voice low and kind, as if it contained the wisdom of the years.

"Our tribe has been worshiping the power of nature and the universe, and you, as the son of Neptune, have a special connection with water and ocean. This is not the result of our divination, but the special energy in you. Centaur We have been guarding this forbidden forest, and our connection has been established thousands of years ago. In you, we feel the reawakening of this ancient connection. You are the son of the starry sky and the son of the sea, this is a fact we firmly believe. "

Anakin silently pondered the words of the high priest, feeling that his mysterious connection with the world became closer and closer.

"Excuse me, what is your relationship with the Greek gods? You know, centaurs also appear in Greek mythology." Anakin asked curiously.

The high priest nodded and explained: "Yes, our tribe has a deep connection with the Greek gods. In ancient times, centaurs once fought side by side with Greek gods and heroes to defend nature and order. The most famous among us are the heroes His mentor is Chiron. He is the ancestor of all Centaurs and the teacher of all Greek heroes."

"I have a question, why do you call this tribe centaurs and call yourself centaurs?" Anakin felt a little confused.

The high priest continued to explain: "This is what I am going to say next. According to the records of our tribe, about a thousand years ago, all the gods suddenly disappeared. Most of the mythical creatures also disappeared. Among us, the centaurs Most also left this world. However, it seems that some unexpected changes occurred, and only a handful of mythical creatures survived and remained in this world. However, with the disappearance of the gods, the members of our tribe also began to gradually degenerate. Although we The centaur gained the mysterious ability of divination, but lost its previous powerful combat ability and ability to use other magic."

The high priest paused, his expression looking a little heavy. "I am probably the last centaur. Your arrival gives me hope. Maybe we can rediscover the power of our myth and return to the glory of the past. I know that the history of these two worlds is now important to you. It’s still a mystery, but I believe you have established a special connection with our tribe. This new era may be changed because of your existence, and our tribe will be your strong support.”

Anakin thought for a moment, understanding more of the complex connections between the world and himself. He realized that this time traveling was not just an accident, but was closely related to the history and mythology of this mysterious tribe. This is an opportunity and a responsibility.

"High Priest, I will do my best to help the centaurs regain their former glory and power." Anakin solemnly stated that he felt that he had been accepted by the tribe and became a part of them.

The high priest nodded and said with emotion: "Your arrival is a miracle for us. We will provide you with all possible help to understand the connection between the two worlds and our mysterious past. Now, you can stay Learn more in the Horde, or you can return to Hogwarts at any time. Whatever you decide, we will always be with you."

Anakin took a deep breath in gratitude. He knows his mission is not yet complete, but at least now he has allies and a deep understanding. After bidding farewell to the high priest, he left the sacrificial cave and returned to the centaurs tribe's campfire to face his friends who were waiting for him.
