Chapter 292: The Fourth Hallow

Xenos got serious. "Over my many years of research, I have found references pointing to a fourth Deathly Hallow several times, but they were nothing more than speculations, rumors, or legends, even more so than the other three."

"But?..." Harry assumed that Xenos wouldn't have come here if rumors were all he had.

Xenos reached into his robes and pulled out a small tome with a black leather cover and something written on the top.

"A diary?" Daphne spoke her first impression.

Harry had to agree with her. By the looks of the book, it very much resembled a certain diary he was very familiar with. The name on the cover became clearer after Xenos held it in his palms. "A.N.P?"

"Anthony Nathaniel... Peverell," Xenos revealed.

"Was that one of the Three Brothers from the tale? I don't remember if the names were actually mentioned," Daphne commented.

"No, but this Anthony was the direct descendant of the youngest brother, the one who was given the Cloak of Invisibility." Xenos glanced at Harry. "It was, in fact, him who was responsible for the cloak ending up in the Potter family."

"Really? Does it say the how and why?" Harry asked.

"You'll have a chance to read it in a moment, but first... there is something else you need to see." He opened the diary around the middle.Ne/w novel chapters are published at novelhall.com

"At this point, the Peverell family was in decline. Anthony was one of its latest members and the current Lord of the house. The first half of the diary entries are very mundane and just describe the many struggles he had as the Lord. But then, on the night of his 30th birthday, he received the visit of a mysterious figure."

"A mysterious figure..." Daphne repeated.

"You saw the Peverell vault?" Daphne exclaimed. Only a few knew about that vault which remained untouched for centuries at the bottom of Gringotts' underground caves.

"I didn't just see it. When I got closer... I felt something, some sort of connection, but it was very faint," Harry explained.

"Like what you felt from the other Hallows?" Xenos asked.

"I think so... it's hard to be sure. This was much earlier."

"Right, you were yet to awaken properly as the Master of Death. I'm sure the connection will be much stronger now," Xenos said.

"You think that box was left for Harry," Daphne realized what Xenos was implying.

"I believe it was left for whoever was chosen by the other three Deathly Hallows... it just didn't happen until now."

"I guess we could make a trip to the vaults and check," Harry suggested.

"And have you thought about how to open the Peverell vault? Because I assume you don't have the keys," Daphne said.

"I do have the key, actually." Harry said.

This surprised both Xenos and Daphne.

"Why would you have the key to the Peverell Vault?" Daphne asked.

"A few years ago, when I visited my family vault...we found it there, in a small box, hidden behind a wall. It was very weird." Harry admitted.

"I knew it!. This must be fate!" Xenos got exited.

"But those old vaults don't work with just keys. You need to be part of the family bloodline..." Harry frowned. "So we are still going to need a Peverell to open it for us."

"That family went extinct centuries ago..." Daphne said.

"We don't have to look for anyone." Xenos proclaimed before moving his eyes to Harry. "We have a Peverell descendant right here."
