Hogwarts: From Selling White Peppers to Becoming a God

Chapter 88 The Healer's Diary

"On September 4th, the weather was sunny. Giovanna was sick, but she trusted me a lot. I comforted her and told her not to worry, that I would definitely cure her. Although I didn't know how to do it yet, I was sure I could do it."

"September 5th. I'm more proactive now. I'm trying new methods every day. I mix those potions, trying to find a better ratio. I've become more cheerful. Looking at my previous diary entries, I'm surprised I didn't use the Heart Seed sooner."

"September 7th. To alleviate the villagers' pain, I used the Seed of the Soul on them again, so that they could forget their suffering."

……

"On September 9, I began building the wall to prevent the plague from spreading."

"September 11th. Giovanna died."

"September 13th. I activated the barrier and made adjustments to it. I no longer need to worry about the plague spreading. From now on, I only need to focus on treating the villagers."

……

"On September 27th, I found my ancestors' notes. The descriptions of the Mind Seed confirmed my thoughts. My ancestors used this spell to create house-elves! The spell I used was incomplete; it was altered. It can still change a person's mind, but it has lost the ability to change their body..."

"This spell is so powerful that its effects can even flow through the bloodlines of house-elves. Everyone fears it, our ancestors suffered the most severe persecution, and the spell was lost. We can only recreate this incomplete version through some memories and texts."

"If I can complete this incantation, will my body believe it can be healed and regain its health? Or will the plague that has entered their bodies die automatically?"

"I need to conduct some experiments."

……

"On October 5th, I conducted the experiment on Drus, and it failed."

……

"On October 12, the experiment on Marissa also failed."

……

"October 17th. The wall construction is complete."

……

"October 22nd. I started having a fever. Is it finally my turn?"

"October 24th. High fever."

"October 25th. I am going to die. I have decided to use the Seed of the Mind on myself. I will not be killed by the plague. As long as I believe this, I will definitely not be killed."

"October 26th. The plague did not kill me."

"October 27th. The plague within me changed. It became something gentle."

"I suddenly realized I had succeeded. I had replicated my ancestor's incantation!"

"October 29th. My memory is declining; I always seem to forget things."

……

"Burta died on November 4th. It's strange, it can't be. I should have cured her, she couldn't have died."

"Burta was buried on November 6th. I still believe I can cure her."

……

"November 7th. I dug Burta out. I knew she was dead, but I still felt I should treat her. I opened her chest cavity, found the location of the lesions, removed them, and then used dictamnus dasycarpus, which of course did not grow back."

"On November 9th, Burta began to rot. I cut away more and more tissue until she became just bones. Was this still Burta? I didn't know, but I knew I still wanted to treat her, wanted her to keep living..."

"November 11th. I can't... I can't cure her..."

"November 14th. I made the bones move, but is she Burta?"

……

"November 20th. I discovered some strange phenomena."

"November 21st. Things are starting to get better! They are recovering; the new plague is actually healing them! The villagers are starting to grow new tissue! The new organisms are healthier than the originals, and they are almost unaffected by contamination!"

"November 22nd. I checked on most of the villagers, and they were all very happy! Most of their symptoms have stopped progressing! Apart from becoming a little forgetful, they are much healthier!"

……

"November 24th. Monica came back from Hogwarts to see me, and she thought I was crazy. She said the plague outside was over, and I was treating some dead people. That's impossible! If that's the case, why am I still doing pointless work? We had a huge argument."

……

"November 26th. Monica asked me to let her go. She was even planning to go to that stupid school. Didn't she realize she was sick?"

"November 27th. Monica cried and said that I was the one who was sick. She said I was already dead, a ghost wearing a dead body, and the villagers were also imprisoned in bodies by the Seed of the Soul and turned into ghosts. It's ridiculous! Can't she see that this is newly formed healthy tissue? This tissue will not become diseased, and we no longer have to fear the plague!"

"November 28th. Monica tried to break the magic beneath the church; she wanted to break the barrier! She wanted to spread the plague! I stopped her. She said I'd completely gone mad. She said if I thought we were both healthy, why should we be afraid of the plague spreading?"

"November 29th. Monica said the plague was controlling us, that the Seed of the Mind had mutated the plague, making it a vessel for the Seed of the Mind, and that it was controlling us. She was partially right; I did use the Seed of the Mind to change the plague, but it couldn't control humanity. My daughter lacks basic medical knowledge."

"November 30th. Monica has gone completely mad. Her illness is getting worse and worse. She can no longer distinguish between reality and fantasy! My good daughter, spouting off about the false knowledge she learned in that stupid school and in the Muggle world, while blind to the facts before her eyes!"

"December 1st. Monica started to fantasize. She actually said that I had kept her locked up for more than two years, and today is April 9th. Ridiculous, I have read my diary, my memory cannot be wrong. I must cure my daughter."

"December 3rd. I threw away the Muggle pills she had been secretly taking, which she thought would help her fight off the disease. But I knew that those drugs were poisoning her brain, and I had to save her!"

"December 7th. Monica said she was sick. She was no longer fully conscious, but that's okay, she was actually getting better. The new plague would replace the bad germs in her body and make her healthy."

"December 9th. Monica came to me and said that I killed her with my own hands, and that she didn't want to be a puppet of those germs. We had a big fight."

"December 10th. Monica said she loves me. I was so happy, my sweet daughter is back! We went for a walk together, we reminisced about her childhood, I was immersed in happiness, and we had a delicious dinner together. After a long time, Monica hugged me again."

……

"December 11th. Monica burned herself to death."

……

"Oh my god, what have I done?"
