Chapter 384 The Collapse of Azkaban! Ethan's reputation is now on par with the two Dark Lords.
To be able to create a painting that transcends one's own level in a short period of time?!
Ethan's eyes lit up.
Stroking the smooth, soft fabric in his hands, feeling the vibrant vibrations within, he murmured in delight, "What a treasure... No wonder it's a treasure dropped by the Grim Reaper, possessing properties that other extraordinary materials don't have!"
'
"Perhaps I can use this treasure to draw something I've never drawn before."
"A painting based on rules!"
Ethan's eyes sparkled, and a longing surged within him; he couldn't wait to start painting right then and there!
He happily pocketed the "heart skin".
Immediately, a faint rumbling sound came from the leather bag that had been enchanted with the Invisible Stretching Charm.
It was as if a thunderclap had been inserted into it.
"After so many years of accumulation, my leather bag is now full of treasures."
Ethan thought to himself, then laughed, "Haha, if someone were to take a stroll inside my bag, they might just write a 'Peach Blossom Spring' story!"
'
Absolutely stunning!
At this point, Ethan suddenly exclaimed, "Huh? Why do I feel like I've forgotten something...?"
There are no living creatures in the leather bag, are there?
Faintly, it seemed as if a very faint roar could be heard coming from within.
Ethan listened intently for a moment, but no sound came through.
"Hmm, maybe I misheard."
Ethan shrugged and nonchalantly put the bag away.
then.
He stretched lazily, let out a comfortable but tired yawn, rubbed his eyes, and said sleepily, "Alright, the dark wizard's underground chambers have finally been explored."
"Now I can go back to my cell and get a good night's sleep!"
It must be very quiet in Azkaban tonight.
Just as Ethan was looking around the secret room, which was full of signs of decay, with a lingering and appreciative gaze.
His inspiration suddenly flashed.
It guided him to look at the shriveled heart that had been split in two.
Ethan extended his long, slender fingers, pointed to his heart, and whispered, "Torn to pieces."
Magic emanated from his fingertips, transforming into invisible blades.
Remotely, it sliced open the giant, mushroom-like, thick heart with a series of "plop plop" sounds.
Incidentally, this spell is also frequently used to cut potions.
Ethan always cuts the best slice.
Even if Professor Snape stretched out his hooked nose, he couldn't find a single flaw.
Inside the cut-open heart, a pale spine was exposed.
Its appearance was very upright, about the size of a forearm. Even though it was wrapped in flesh and blood, its body was still as white as snow, round and smooth, and radiated a faint glow.
"What is this?"
Ethan, curious, bent down and picked up the spine bone buried in his heart.
The instant his fingers touched it, Ethan's mind was struck by a hoarse, ethereal female voice—
I beg you, take me with you, and I will guide you to the side of death.
The sound vanished in an instant.
"6
""
Ethan reacted for two seconds, blinked, and then his eyes suddenly lit up with excitement!
"It actually broke through my defenses in an instant and made the voice resonate in my mind... Interesting!"
This fairytale-like magical world truly holds many more secrets worth uncovering!
Ethan licked his lips, his fingers tracing the coldness of his spine.
His eyes were like torches, and his heart was filled with an insatiable thirst for knowledge.
You have obtained an extraordinary item: the Bone of Guidance.
[Guiding Bone: Able to point to the scattered remains of the Grim Reaper on the earth]
[An item left behind by some unknown being, because of its strong connection with death, always points in a direction related to death when it is thrown on the ground.]
[At the same time, it can also serve as an exceptional material, enhancing the power of a painting.]
—Isn't this a bone-like "compass"?
Ethan curiously tossed it a few times.
Each time, the spine pointed in the same direction.
"It seems the system was right; it really is a compass—or rather, a death compass?"
Ethan played with the spine, saying with great interest.
However, while it serves as a guide, its scope is too general.
He couldn't possibly follow the direction the spine pointed and walk until the end of time.
"Moreover, with my current strength, I'm not entirely confident that I can face the remains of the next Grim Reaper."
"This time, I narrowly escaped defeat by hitting the heart. I can't guarantee that I'll be able to do it just as well next time."
Ethan tossed his spine up and down, then snapped it into his hand.
He murmured firmly, "For now, I should focus on improving my strength and successfully advancing to the level of an immortal. As for the remnants of the Grim Reaper, I'll find them as I go."
Just like this time.
Wherever the wreckage exists, darkness and mutation must gather.
He'll always run into them.
"However, it's not a freebie. I've gained an extraordinary item that can be used repeatedly, which can enhance my painting abilities."
Ethan stared at the spine in his hand, his eyebrows curving upwards.
In my mind, I already had a plan on how to "transform" it.
"First like this, then like this, and then like this... hehehe~"
Amidst laughter comparable to that of a dark wizard, the pure and flawless spine trembled slightly.
It's as if a young, unmarried woman has fallen into the hands of a villain.
Just then.
There was a "click" sound.
Ethan stopped laughing and looked in the direction of the sound, only to see a large crack in the wall.
When the heart loses its vitality, the strong meridians that once supported the walls wither and die.
Magic has lost its power.
This underground fortress, submerged in seawater for over a century, is rapidly aging and cracking!
In the blink of an eye, the initial crack spread to the entire wall!
"Boom!"
Feeling the ground shake, Ethan fell silent.
He straightened his back, turned and strode outside, grabbing Percy, who had just regained consciousness, and pulled him up.
Swipe once to open any door.
Percy, feeling dizzy and weak, said, "What...what happened..."
'
Ethan lowered his head and gave a gentle smile: "It's a small problem."
"It's just that the foundation has collapsed; Azkaban looks like it's about to crumble."

Percy: ? ? ?
His eyes widened in shock as he looked around at the rumbling, shaking noise.
His eyes rolled back, and he fainted again.
Unwilling to face this surreal reality.
Ethan stepped into the portal, and on the other side, he appeared in the lower hall of Azkaban.
A head peeked out from the dark door, startling the Aurors who were gathered together in a panic.
Ethan: "Excuse me, when does my second trial begin?"
"6
'
The Aurors opened their mouths in disbelief, then hesitantly replied, "Uh—it seems to be in the last couple of days?"
"Great, it looks like I can still make it to Christmas."
Ethan smiled and said very politely, "If there's nothing else, I'll be going now. I've been so talkative lately."
"Uh—goodbye?"
Done.
Ethan then raised the hat he had conjured, and then shrunk it back into the Anywhere Door, intending to teleport directly to the Ministry of Magic.
Just thinking about his beloved Minister of Magic, seeing his sudden appearance and dazzling entrance.
How surprised they'll be to jump for joy!
Ethan couldn't help but smile, feeling a warm glow in his heart.
There needs to be more care and connection between people.
"Hmm, if I remember correctly, in the original story, Ron's father, Arthur, was bitten by Voldemort's viper just before Christmas..."
'
Ethan thought to himself.
This plot never happened.
I don't know if he dropped the butterfly, or if it will happen soon.
"If it happens to coincide with my second trial, that would be such a coincidence, hahaha."
Ethan smiled and said he would make a mental note of it.
Before leaving.
Ethan also thoughtfully created a protective barrier for the Aurors.
As the dark door disappeared into the air.
The first brick of Azkaban has fallen.
Aurors:
'
'
"Boom—!!!"
Countless bricks and stones fell from the sky like rain!
The ground collapsed with a deafening roar, as if a giant maw had opened, swallowing all the Aurors whole!
It was swallowed up by the billowing smoke and dust!
—This tower, which has stood for over a century and buried countless souls, is the "safest" in the modern magical world.
The prison, the infamous Azkaban.
It collapsed!!!
Amidst the rubble and bricks, the Aurors, protected by the barrier, cried out from their very souls: "Ethan! You are truly my ancestor!!!"
They accomplished a feat that was unprecedented and will never be repeated!
This is enough to leave a significant mark on the history of the magic world!
As for his reputation... well, it can only be said that he's on par with the two Dark Lords.
Tomorrow's news headlines are going to be explosive again.
