HP Approaches the Magic World

Chapter 16 Ravenclaw's Legacy

Jon felt Helga was too modest.

His ancestor from a thousand years ago - Jon really didn't know what to call Helga because he didn't know how many generations had passed - had magical knowledge that transcended time. Although the magic in the magical world was improving, Helga

His insights are always so unique.

After explaining to Jon the preliminary use of the Disguise Curse, Jon gave up the idea of ​​mastering this magic right away.

——Compared to the manufacture of invisibility cloaks, simple invisibility spells such as the Disguise Curse were not practical in our time. The environment at that time was quite harsh. If we only used such a simple magic spell, we would have been put in the dark.

Burned at the stake.

After comparing some of the current spells with the spells they had at that time, Helga said this to Jon.

She took some books on contemporary spells from Jon - the magic of the portrait world can rub the words on the books and then re-condensate them in the portrait world - and planned to modify the way of casting these spells for Jon.

Then he began to train Jon's magic.

Jon had no complaints about this. Having a legendary magician customize the power of the spell for him was something he had never thought about, something that could never be expected.

——At least the meditation method was praised by Helga.

Since he can't start practicing magic for the time being, he might as well explore the study room left by Ms. Ravenclaw.

There are no books worth reading on the bookshelves, they are all outdated spell books and magic item manufacturing guides. At these levels, today's magic world has long ago brought forth new ideas and achieved higher achievements.

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

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

He sat directly on the Ravenclaw chair and began to open the drawers on both sides of the desk one by one.

"Huh? Locked?"

Jon, who had not found anything in the previous three drawers, suddenly cheered up. The person locked in the drawer by Ravenclaw would definitely not be ordinary.

He thought for a while, pointed the wand in his hand at the keyhole, and whispered: "Open the Alaho hole."

There is no response and the spell fails.

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

"You can't do this. Although the spell 'Open Alaho' is very subtle, it cannot be used to open the anti-lock spell set by Rowena." Helga on the wall didn't know when she changed from the world of portraits.

Zhong returned to the surface: "She is the top magic master I have ever seen."

Jon waved his wand and poked his head with the tip of the wand: "But I only know this kind of unlocking spell, and you just said that if you use violence to break it, you will probably be hurt by the magic.

arrive."

"Of course, Rowena's magic is too dangerous for you now. Even the backlash of an anti-lock spell will seriously injure you. But why are you so obsessed with opening this drawer?"

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

Jon knocked on the big locked drawer. This was a scene that had never appeared in the original work. It would be impossible to say that he was not curious: "It is certainly not a simple thing that can be locked here with great care by Ravenclaw.

, maybe it’s the real legacy left by Ravenclaw.”

"Rowner's inheritance...isn't it appropriate for you to take it away? I think Rowena's heir is still in the castle and may not agree with your behavior."

"Helena has turned into a ghost. Besides, she probably doesn't even know..."

Jon got stuck mid-sentence because he let something slip.

It has been 11 years since he was reborn, and this was the first time he let it slip. Fortunately, the person he heard was not someone else, but his own ancestor.

He looked up at the portrait. Helga in the portrait was also thoughtful, and did not notice anything unusual.

Huh? Can’t you hear anything wrong with this?

He was about to skip this matter quietly when he heard Helga continue: "Have you still heard about Helena becoming a ghost? I just said that the boy named Tom was unreliable. Damn it.

With smooth words and the identity of being a descendant of the same founder, Helena was tricked into telling the whereabouts of the crown, but in the end no one could find it."

"..."

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

And it seems that the old lady still doesn’t know that Tom Riddle has turned into the Dark Lord Voldemort.

Jon looked at Helga who was trapped in her own world, silently not talking. Although Helga in the portrait looked very young, due to the legendary magic, she was still essentially an old lady.

Moreover, it is a common feature of legendary wizards that they become indifferent when thinking.

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

What is the essence of a drawer that has been casted with an anti-locking spell?

It's essentially a drawer with a lock.

Since there is a lock, there is also 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 Requirement!

Jon knocked his head. Ever since he received the notification letter from Hogwarts, his thoughts have been short-circuited by the real arrival of the wizarding world. Sometimes it is difficult to think of the joints in simple things.

.

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

"I need the key to this drawer."

After a moment, there was silence.

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

"Don't you have a key?"

Jon pulled the handle of the drawer and clearly felt that the lock inside was stuck on the baffle, so there must be a key.

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

Well, he still has another solution, but he can't do it yet.

"If you can't open it, don't do it. I always feel that there shouldn't be anything inside, maybe it's just some books collected by Rowena." Helga said softly: "She always likes to study some strange magic."

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

Jon thought of some ways to open the lock, but there was no locksmith, and he didn't know how to match the key himself, so he could only keep this in mind first.

"I have been out for a long time. When there are more students in the castle, I think I may not be able to avoid them, so I have to go now." He said to Helga's portrait: "This portrait of yours will go first.

Store it here, and I will bring you home when the holidays come this year."
