When I arrived back at my manor, the familiar stillness greeted me — a silence laced with power, waiting to be shaped. My wards shimmered faintly as I stepped inside, recognizing my magic and parting obediently. The moment the doors closed behind me, I felt it — a pulse deep within my chest, as if something ancient had awakened.
My supreme Magic Control ability flared instinctively, attuned to every ripple within my body. That's when it happened.A surge of foreign yet familiar energy erupted from my core, coursing through my veins like liquid fire. It wasn't painful — it was transformative. My heart thundered once, twice — and then the energy settled, merging seamlessly into me.
Ding!Congratulations, Host. You have absorbed the Peverell Bloodline.
I froze, letting the system's words sink in. The Peverell bloodline — ancient, pure, and deeply intertwined with the essence of Death itself. It wasn't just knowledge I had inherited… it was lineage.
Instantly, my magic responded. It felt sharper, more refined — ancient in tone, yet perfectly harmonized with my own. My senses expanded; I could feel the subtle hum of the ley lines beneath the manor, the intricate network of enchantments hidden in the air. Every rune, every thread of ambient energy, became clearer than ever.
The bloodline settled fully, and then came the changes.
My soul felt heavier — not in burden, but in depth. I could sense the barrier between life and death, that delicate veil most wizards never perceive. I could almost reach out and touch it. My wand hand tingled faintly as if recognizing a power beyond mortal comprehension.
Then visions flickered behind my eyes — Antioch, forging his wand under a moonlit sky; Cadmus, whispering to the spirits of the dead; Ignotus, cloaking himself from Death's gaze. Their essence flowed through me, now bound to my very blood.
"Peverell…" I whispered, the word tasting of destiny. "So this is what true legacy feels like."
My veins glowed faintly with silver light for a moment before dimming, my control asserting itself. The transformation completed cleanly, perfectly.

Deathly Resonance: The Hallows will respond to your will instinctively
I exhaled slowly, feeling the surge of new strength within me. My connection to the world of magic deepened; I could now feel the pull of the Deathly Hallows somewhere in the distance — faint but distinct, as if they recognized me as one of their own.
A small smirk curved my lips."Not only their knowledge," I murmured, "but their very blood. The Peverells live again — through me."
The air crackled around me, resonating with a strange duality — life and death, light and shadow, all balanced perfectly under my control. I clenched my fist, feeling that divine harmony of opposites hum through every fiber of my being.
With this bloodline now mine, I had taken yet another step beyond mortal wizards — beyond even the founders themselves.
