Chapter 1421: Murder and Suicide
After Helena finished speaking, there was a long silence below, only the sound of a campfire burning.
"I love you, Helena, you know that!" Barrow said affectionately.
"If you really love me, get out of here now. Helena Ravenclaw whispered, unmoved.
"No, you must go back with me, Lady Ravenclaw wants to see you, she is sick, very sick. ”
"My mother......" Helena took a deep breath, at that moment, she seemed a little hesitant, but quickly regained her composure, "for a wizard of her level, death is not the end. I'm sorry for my mother, I did something unfilial and unrighteous, but I won't go back to Hogwarts, my mother and the other three professors have their own lofty ideals, I don't, I don't have the ability to inherit that school of witchcraft and wizardry and their will, it's a painful cage for me, I'm finally free now, as long as there is ...... One day, I will become smarter than my mother, more famous than her. ”
"That's enough!" Barrow roared suddenly, and he stepped out of the shadows of the firelight.
Evan saw that the expression on his face was hideously twisted and looked terrifying, and Barrow was very angry.
"I don't believe what you're saying, it's all a lie. I gave you a chance, but you still won't tell me the truth, I know why you left Hogwarts, before I left, Malfoy told me everything, someone saw you with a man, a lowly mudblood, you eloped together!" he gasped and walked up to Helena, "Tell me his name, Helena, tell me who he is, I'm going to kill him!"
"I told you just now, I'm the only one. Helena said angrily, "Do you know why I hate you, because of your violent temper and irretrievable intelligence." You don't love me at all, you just want the support of my mother and Professor Gryffindor, and I wouldn't choose you even if I married a Muggle. ”
"Shut up!"
"Don't think I don't know, Barrow, you're jealous of me. It's ridiculous that I see them as something that I desperately want to get rid of, and you are so jealous that you want to get it in every possible way. You're jealous of my status as heir to House Ravenclaw, jealous of my mother being one of the four founders of Hogwarts, jealous that I'm more powerful than you, jealous of what you are not destined to get, jealous of my current freedom. Helena continued, "Jealous ......"
Her voice stopped abruptly as Barrow drew his dagger and stabbed it in her chest.
The sword was so sharp that it took Helena's life almost instantly, and she didn't even have a chance to scream in pain.
Helena looked at Barrow with wide eyes, a mixture of shock, disbelief, resentment, and inquiry.
In front of her, Barrow clutched his dagger and used all his strength to make his eyes red and the muscles of his face twisted extremely.
Helena's blood splattered all over him, red blood almost soaking through his robes.
Barrow's current appearance has such an indescribable madness, terrifying, daunting.
Evan held his breath and stared silently at the murder unfolding in the clearing below.
Everything happened so fast that he didn't even have time to think about his reaction, and Helena died.
"She shouldn't feel the pain. The thought popped into Aven's head.
Helena fell backwards heavily, and Barrow stood alone, the firelight pulling his shadow long.
After a long time, the madness and hideousness on his face gradually receded, and was replaced by a kind of pain and sluggishness.
With a heavy gasp, he seemed to finally realize what he had done, and tears flowed uncontrollably.
In the clearing, only Barrow's cries remained.
"He should really love Helena. The thought popped into Aven's mind again.
Otherwise, after killing Helena on impulse, he wouldn't have cried so sadly.
But this love is really heavy......
In the clearing, the remorseful Barrow hugged Helena tightly, and he cried so sadly.
Then, without warning, he picked up the dagger again and committed suicide, ending his own life.
The two of them died like this, Evan watched Barrow's body slowly fall next to Helena, they couldn't have been together in life, but after death, they were together in this way, leaving only two superimposed bones for posterity to explore, but Evan knew that this was not the end of their two destinies.
Death is really the beginning, and for the next thousand years, the souls of the two will haunt Hogwarts, becoming the ghosts of Ravenclaw and Slytherin. The icy Hogwarts castle and the Ravenclaw House towers, where Helena tried everything to escape from during her lifetime, and for Barrow, as long as he was next to Helena, his soul was destined to feel only pain.
It can be more painful if you leave......
A soft sigh rang in Aven's ears, and it seemed to be that of Lady Ravenclaw.
In the next second, the raven that Ai Wenwen had become moved again.
It flew down from the branch and landed next to Helena's face, looking at her up close.
Then, the raven spreads its wings and flies into the night sky, all the way up the tall tree trunk.
At the height at which the moon could be seen again, a hollow appeared in the trunk of the tree, where the Ravenclaw crown lay silently.
It was the crown in its intact state, and the sapphire glowed softly in the moonlight.
Above the sapphire is the body of the crown, the shape of a raven spreading its wings. It was not as silver as Evan had seen, but a pale gold, exuding a bright luster, the brilliance of the sapphire and the pale gold of the crown body were softly combined with the distant moonlight.
The line below the crown is clearly visible: Extraordinary ingenuity is the greatest treasure of mankind.
It is also very clear that the magic around the crown, when Aven approached this big tree just now, he felt a strange magic power from a distance, he thought it was the magic power of this tree, but now he knows that this is the magic power emitted by the Ravenclaw crown, this is a legendary magic item of high grade, with great power.
In later lives, Voldemort and Evan found nothing but a defective product, with little power, only symbolism.
Now, what is presented to Aven is the complete crown, the true crown of wisdom!
