"Death Eaters?!" Evan remembered that Golgomath had always been in touch with the Death Eaters.
"Remember how Golgomath returned our gift before?!" Sirius continued, "In fact, he had already contacted the Death Eaters, agreed to Voldemort's request, and was ready to take his companions to join his army. Then, when he killed Karkus, became the Gurg, and ruled all the giants overnight, the Death Eaters couldn’t be happier. However, he told them that he was not going to cooperate with th...

The giantesses were even more terrifying than the Cyclops!
In the dim light, Evan sat up quickly, but his body was weak and he fell feebly again.
He panted and saw that the figure standing by his bed was Sirius, not a giantess.
"Thank goodness, you finally woke up!" Sirius said happily and hurried over to help Evan.
"How long have I been asleep?" Evan asked, rubbing his eyes, confused.
He checked his belongings and breathed a sigh of relief. The wand, Slytherin's...

In mythology, the Cyclops was a horrible creature comparable to ancient gods.
It had strong power to control the magic of Thunder and Lightning, but the most terrible thing was that eye. The eyes of different Cyclopes had different powers, such as cursing, insight, copying magic, foreseeing danger and even creating illusions, and so on.
The single eye was their symbol, a byword for fear, and represented the dark ages that were ruled by Cyclopes thousands of years ago.
If thi...

Silence!!!
There was only silence inside the cave. Sirius, Hagrid, Madame Maxime and all the giants seemed to have lost their voices.
They looked at Evan in disbelief, and at the powerful force that burst out from this thin body.
How did he do it? Was this power a human wizard should have?!!
Even Dumbledore and Voldemort would not be able to kill one of the most powerful giant warriors in a second.
If all wizards and witches had the power of Evan, then the giants...

The filthy goo on the black iron bludgeon was actually from the brains of other creatures.
It included animals in the nearby woods, giants killed by him, and humans...
Few people could match the brute force of giants. They were proficient at wielding huge tree trunk bats or iron clubs in battle, causing extreme damage as if they were walking meat grinders. Obviously, they could just directly grab the enemy, breaking their necks and smashing their skulls, letting the blood splash o...

The magnificent Cyclops statue oppressively towered above everyone, almost being inviting to bow at its sight.
The creature stood as high as a mighty Greek titan and was extremely powerful, enough to slaughter the dragon and kill anyone who dared to offend it.
But now, that momentum has been undermined by a mere scabbard.
The scabbard was planted into the giant's eye, carved with exquisite patterns and inlaid with small sparkling rubies.
With it as the center, the huge...

In Evan’s impression, Hagrid could subdue any dangerous magical creature, and even bring a dragon into submission.
This powerful half giant being easily knocked away by Grawp, the weakest of full-blooded ones, clearly showed the gap in strength between humans and these powerful creatures.
Under the sound of Madame Maxime's screams, Hagrid rose from the ground, bleeding from his nose and mouth.
Herbert stopped Grawp, and Fridwulfa scolded him, and the giant stood there unea...

"My brother!" Hagrid murmured, his eyes turning red!
He looked at Grawp with his eyes wide open, though he could only see part of him, with his head and feet covered by bushes.
Through the dense foliage, Evan could see what he thought to be a vast mossy boulder in the distance, but it was actually Grawp’s head.
It was perfectly round and covered with tightly curling, close-growing hair the color of bracken.
The rim of a single large, fleshy ear was visible on top of ...

The giantess, about twenty feet tall, was lying on Karkus, bouncing constantly up and down, all while eating like him.
She should be his wife, and the giants around seemed to be used to it, and did not feel any bad.
The scene in front of them was particularly shocking, and Evan tried to keep calm.
The giants around started shouting noisily, but Hagrid and Madame Maxime held their gift up high, kept their eyes on the Gurg, and ignored the others, and the other giants graduall...

Evan had to resist the urge to pull out his wand. The giants were in awe of magic and wanted to sense its mysterious power, but they hated wizards pointing their wands at them and using magic against them; it would only agitate them.
By now, he had finally understood why Dumbledore had to send someone to woo the giants. He could imagine the shock and sense of domination brought about by the battlefield presence of formidable fighters as large as mountains…

"Because of grudges from the past, the remnants of the old tribes often fight each other, and that’s even without squabbles over food and the best fires and sleeping spots," said Hagrid. "You'd think, seeing as how their whole race is on the verge of extinction, they’d give it a break, but… those are giants for you!"
"That Gurg, the chief of the giants, doesn’t he care?" Evan asked. He had read about this in the reading materials gathered for him by Hermione, but still found it ...

The lighthouse was the highest point on the coastline, standing high above all. Being up there, one could oversee the whole area.
Those dark wizards who occupied the lighthouse must have planned to find a favorable position to observe Scylla and the whirlpool, and everything in the area. But why would they extinguish the lighthouse?!!
Evan couldn't understand. But on the other hand, Sirius, Hagrid, and Madame Maxime had things going well. The giants had a few contacts among local ...

Both Scylla and the whirlpool were located in the Strait of Messina between the Italian peninsula and Sicily.
From the northeast corner of the island, where Evan was now, they could clearly see the panoramic view of the strait.
There was a small town near their camp, Taormina, where Muggles and wizards lived together. There was a well-preserved ancient Greek theater in town. It was also the name card of Sicily. Evan had just visited it not long ago.
At the southern end of th...

After that night, whenever he looked at the owl pendant on his left wrist, this rough and simple carved turquoise, Evan thought of Shukrya, the girl with a smile on her lips and a wise and calm expression, the girl who willingly became a devil for the sake of love…
He didn't know the name of the shaman's relic on his wrist. He just called it " Shukrya’s Shield".
This pendant had a very strong natural force, which was a very unique magical power. But Evan was not a witch doctor...

She lunged forward, but immediately retreated back, screaming.
It wasn’t just that she couldn’t break through, the cage actually badly burned her claws, and black smoke came out of them as soon as they touched it.
"You’re all going to DIE… you’re all going to DIE!" Ariane cursed, waving her claws vigorously and acting mad. "No! I want you to live forever, and I will TORT...

Just as Evan became an owl, a mysterious force of nature was released from the shaman totem, quickly passing through the dark castle.
The owl ghosts wandering in the castle were stunned to find that the power that had been confining them had disappeared.
Their bodies were changing rapidly, returning to their former shapes...
The ghosts regained their senses, shouted cheerfully, and celebrated in the broken corridor covered by the cobwebs.

Sirius opened his eyes wide and looked at what was happening in disbelief.
A woman's figure gradually appeared in the red glowing mirror. It was Ariane, whom he and Evan had seen before.
She was still dressed in her aristocratic dress from hundreds of years ago, and her expression was grim and indifferent, but she was slightly changed from before.
Her skin was paler. It was unhealthy white. Her eyes were strangely red and a long tongue was hanging out of her mouth.

There was a large space in the dark cave below, and climbing down the rope was definitely not the right way to get in here.
Looking at the nimble Hélène below, Sirius secretly admired her; few witches had such a skill.

He followed Hélène, tightly tangling the rope with his left hand and legs, carefully sliding down, with his right hand stretche...

They were just props to achieve increasingly evil magic, some of the important magic materials that were just… effective

The altar was very simple and crude, with a wooden pillar erected in its center, narrow at the top and thick at the bottom. A simple portrait of an owl was depicted with a knife or the like in an abstract style, looking more like some terrible monster.
Its body was significantly widened, its eyes were large and out of proportion, and its feathers jumped like flames.
A very thick rope was tied to the post, forming a knot, on which hung a turquoise owl pendant.
