v2 Chapter 1752： Dumb gun

"Statue?!" Marcus seemed to be surprised too, as if he had just noticed the statues because of Avon's reminder.

He looked puzzled at the monster statue in the garden and fell into meditation.

Ai Wen frowned and observed the expression on his face, and there was a strange feeling.

Marcus seems to have just noticed the statue. It was just like when Elvin mentioned the black magic that the black witch was casting. This ghost did not see the green magic light shining from the sky, but it was a reminder at Ai Wen. It’s strange to notice these obvious things.

This feeling

It’s like there is something, some kind of magic that is blocking Marcus’s vision, letting him turn a blind eye to something in front of him and what is happening. The scene he sees is different from that seen by Ai Wen, when Ai Wen After reminding him, this magic was immediately released, and he saw what Ivan said.

Considering that Marcus's existence is also a kind of magic, this possibility is very big. What he saw was the scene left by the caster. Or is Marcus pretending not to see, so that Ai Wen does not notice these things, but this is the case, and now it is the same, whether it is the trace of the black witch's casting or the statue in the garden below is obvious. If Marcus hopes that Evan does not see them, then ignore the past and it is too much to say.

"The statues" Marcus's sense of pride is gone, he said dryly, "The statues are always there."

"But you didn't seem to see them just now?"

"I didn't pay attention to the owner," Marcus said. "I didn't expect you to be interested in them. These scary statues have been there for a long time, and it has been easy for others to ignore them. In fact, I can't remember when they were there, but it must have been made by that person. He likes to play with some weird things, and everyone is surprised to see if they don't pay attention. The old master has always been extraordinarily ecstatic about him. Tolerance must be that he put the statue"

"Wait, Marcus, who is that person you said?" Ai Wen asked.

"The man" Marcus's expression has become sluggish again. He seems to have fallen into a long-lasting memory. After a long time, he said, "It’s Master Dalyan, master, please forgive me for a while. His name, Master Dalyan is the youngest son of the old master, a weird guy with no sense of existence. As you can see, he always does some bad pranks, as if to think it is interesting, but actually let Everyone has a headache. No one in the castle likes him. Master Dalyan is not as talented as his brothers and sisters, nor has he inherited the talent of the Ravenclaw family. In fact, he has nothing. He is a dumb gun."

"A dumb gun?" Avon said, remembering Hogwarts janitor Felch, he was a dumb gun.

A dumb gun is a person who is born in a wizarding family but cannot use magic, that is, a Muggle from a wizard.

Generally speaking, the dumb guns will be looked down upon by some wizards and considered to be second-class citizens in the magic world.

Especially in those pure-blooded wizarding families who believe in pure blood, this kind of discrimination will become extraordinarily obvious. Many pure-blood wizards think that it is a shame to have a dumb gun in the family. They will remove the dumb gun members from their family tree. For example, the Malfoy family or the Black family have done this.

Even a wizard-like family like the Weasley family who is very friendly to Muggles and does not believe in pure blood is hard to accept the dumb guns in their family. As far as Ivan knows, Ron has an uncle who is a Muggle accountant, but his existence is almost a taboo topic for the Weasley family and will not be talked about.

In the days before the millennium, the status and circumstances of the dumb guns were much worse than they are now.

They are the existences of the wizarding family that are not easily talked about and are forgotten.

Very few individuals who value the pure blood wizards with higher bloodlines than everything else, even directly kill the dumb guns inside the family, so as not to be known by others.

"Yes, Master Dalyan is a dumb gun. From small to large, he has not shown any ability to cast spells." Marcus paused for a while before continuing. "He is a shame of the Ravenclaw family, people Basically, he rarely talked about him, usually pretending that he didn't exist. The old master was too kind and didn't expel him from the family. But it was strange, it must have been a long time, and my mind was about the memory of Master Dalyan. Always on and off, as if I forgot a lot of things, but there is nothing, isn't it? You can ignore him, the master, in addition to doing something weird to destroy the castle, Master Dalyan has not done anything."

How could it be ignored, this Dalyan is too suspicious.

Can he carve these statues like the creations of evil spirits, is it really just a coincidence?

And Marcus, the strange reaction of this old ghost and he forgot a lot of things about Dalyan, is it a coincidence? !

“Is these statues carved by Darian himself?” Ai Wen asked softly.

"probably."

"The images of these monsters are all his own thoughts?"

"Yes, he must have intended to scare everyone, and he specially carved these terrible things." Marcus said, "There are no such monsters in the world. These are his own delusions, even if he follows other people. Said that these monsters wandered around the castle."

"Wait, Dalyan said the following statues of the monsters wandering around the castle?"

"This is a prank, the master, no one but him has seen these monsters, they simply don't exist." Marcus continued. "It is not surprising that he can say that, Master Daly always does this. Some despicable pranks, such as painting a pattern on the walls of a castle that nobody can understand, or whispering a person there, pretending to be around him, etc. He probably wants to cause it in this way. The attention of others, but it just makes everyone hate him."

"Okay!" Ai Wen thought for a moment and asked, "What happened to Dalyan?"

"At the time of the death, everyone in this land is dead, I think he is no exception." Marcus replied, "But he was not qualified to go to the door of death to witness the opening ceremony, so he I should still stay in the castle, but I didn't see him. His soul may have dissipated. After all, he is just a dumb gun with no magic."
