HP Approaches the Magical World

Chapter 16 Ravenclaw Legacy

Jon felt that Helga was being too modest.

His ancestor thousands of years ago—Jon really doesn’t know how to call Helga because he doesn’t know how many generations have passed—has magical knowledge beyond time. Although the magic in the magic world is improving, Helga Your insights are always unique.

After explaining the initial casting of the Disillusionment Charm to Jon, Jon gave up the idea of ​​mastering the spell immediately.

——Compared to the manufacture of invisibility cloaks, simple invisibility spells such as the Disillusionment Spell were not practical at that time, and the environment at that time was quite harsh. If we had only used such a simple spell, we would have been placed in the Burned at the stake.

After comparing some current spells with their spells at that time, Helga said this to Jon.

She took some books of contemporary spells from Jon—the magic of the portrait world can rub the words on the books and recondense them in the portrait world—planning to modify the way these spells are cast for Jon, Only then did he start training Jon's magic.

Jon has no complaints about this. There is a legendary magician who tailors the power of the spell for him, which is something he has never thought of before.

— at least the meditation method was praised by Helga.

Since he could not start practicing magic for the time being, he might as well explore the study left by Ms. Ravenclaw.

There are no books worth reading on the bookshelves, but outdated spellbooks and magic item manufacturing guides. On these levels, today's wizarding world has long since innovated and achieved higher achievements.

Jon felt that Ravenclaw's legacy would not be so simple. At least the things that the legendary witch usually used should be quite extraordinary items.

After browsing the whole room, Jon set his sights on Ravenclaw's desk.

He sat down straight on Ravenclaw's chair, and began to open the drawers on both sides of the desk one by one.

"Huh? Locked?"

Jon, who didn't find anything in the previous three drawers, suddenly cheered up. The one locked in the drawer by Ravenclaw would definitely not be ordinary.

He thought for a while, pointed the magic wand in his hand at the keyhole, and said softly, "Alahoo is open."

If there is no response, the spell fails.

Jon didn't think there was a problem with his spell, because he had practiced it many times at home, and this spell was one of the best spells he had mastered.

"You can't do this. Although the spell 'Alahoo Open' is very subtle, it can't be used to unlock the anti-lock spell that Rowena set." Zhong returned to the surface: "She is the top spell master I have ever seen."

Jon waved his wand and poked himself on the head with the tip of the wand: "But I only know this kind of lock-opening spell, and you just said that if you break it in a violent way, it is likely to be counter-injured by magic." arrive."

"Of course, Rowena's magic is too dangerous for you now, even a backlash against the Lock-Unlocking Curse will seriously injure you, but why are you so obsessed with opening this drawer?"

"I just want to know what's in there."

Jon knocked on the big locked drawer. This was a scene that didn't appear in the original book. It was impossible to say that he was not curious: "It must not be something simple that can be locked here by Ravenclaw. , perhaps the real legacy left by Ravenclaw."

"Rowena's inheritance... Then it's inappropriate for you to take it away? I think Rowena's heir is still in the castle, so maybe he won't agree with your behavior."

"Helena has become a ghost, besides, she probably doesn't even know..."

Jon got stuck in the middle because he slipped up.

11 years since rebirth,

This was the first time he had slipped his tongue. Fortunately, it wasn't someone else who heard it, but his own ancestors.

He looked up at the portrait, and Helga in the portrait was also thoughtful, and didn't notice anything unusual.

Why? Can't you hear anything wrong?

He was about to skip this incident quietly, when Helga continued: "Has Helena become a ghost? Is it still known to you? Let me just say that the boy named Tom was unreliable. The rhetoric and the identity of being a descendant of the founder tricked Helena into telling the whereabouts of the crown, but in the end no one was found."

"..."

It's not good to say this kind of thing in front of a child like yourself.

And it seems that the old lady doesn't know that Tom Riddle has become the Dark Lord Voldemort.

Jon looked at Helga who was trapped in his own world, and kept silent. Although Helga in the portrait looked very young, she was still an old lady in essence because of the legendary magic.

Moreover, the fact that when thinking about it, it becomes a state where no one else is there is a common feature of legendary wizards.

But Helga's words also reminded Jon that he had fallen into a misunderstanding.

What is the essence of the drawer that casts the anti-unlock spell?

It's essentially a locked drawer.

Since there is a lock, then naturally there is a key.

And when Tom Riddle got the Ravenclaw crown, how did he hide it?

The answer is that he found the Room of Requirement, which is where Jon is now.

This is the Room of Response!

Jon tapped his brain. Ever since he received the notice from Hogwarts, his thoughts have been short-circuited a lot by the real arrival of the wizarding world. Sometimes it is very simple but it is difficult to think of the joints. .

He put away his wand, stretched out a hand, and whispered.

"I need the key to this drawer."

After a while, there was silence.

The key didn't appear out of thin air or fall out of somewhere as Jon guessed, which made him wonder.

"Is there no key?"

Jon tugged on the handle of the drawer, and it was obvious that the lock inside was stuck on the bezel, so there must be a key.

The only possibility is that the key was taken away by Ravenclaw as a funeral object.

Well, he still has other solutions, he just can't do it yet.

"If you can't open it, don't do it. I always feel that there should be nothing in it. It may just be some books collected by Rowena." Helga said softly: "She always likes to study some strange magic."

"Okay, let's put it away for a while."

Jon thought of some ways to unlock the lock, but without a locksmith, he would not be able to make keys himself, so he could only keep this matter in mind first.

"I've been out for a long time. When there are more students in the castle, I don't think I can avoid it, so now I have to go." He said to Helga's portrait: "This portrait of yours first Store it here, and I will bring you home when I have a holiday this year."
