The bronze wings were rusty and mottled with all their might, but they did not move; The sharp claws buckled deep into the stone wall of the castle, never to be pulled out; The fine hairs on the neck seemed to be swaying in the wind, but after all, they were frozen forever in the last moment.

There is no doubt that its size is many times larger than before, and its body posture is much more brave and muscular than in the past, so it can be said that it finally shows the appearance of a bird of prey.

But Maca can still easily recognize that the eagle statue with wings spread on the top of Hogwarts Castle is definitely the bronze eaglet that once led him to the current "road of no return".

It's just that I think the bronze eaglet that liked to twitter and ramble the most at the beginning, but now it has finally become a real bronze eagle statue, and I can't say half a word anymore.

“…… Did it drive out Helpo? ”

With her hands at her side, Maca craned her neck to look at the bronze eagle statue with wings fluttering, her brows furrowed.

To be honest, although he didn't want to deal with that guy all the time, he even deliberately avoided meeting him. But now, I can't help but have an indescribable feeling in my heart.

In particular, several deep cracks that were clearly visible had appeared on the bronze eagle's body. It's far from being scarred, but it's really very caring when you see it.

"Well......" McGonagall muttered slightly, "it can't be said to be 'driven away'!" It unleashed an unknown protective spell as Helbo tried to charge at us...... I couldn't move for a moment, and Helbo was completely shut out - voila! The range is probably as far as the footprints left by the pair of Helbo. ”

"'Can't move'?"

Maca barely thought about it, and quickly nodded as if she understood.

"That's probably the result of freezing a certain range of space."

He naturally remembered what the Bronze Kitty had said very clearly - the entire school-wide space was reinforced by Rowena Ravenclaw, and the only one who could control this space was the Bronze Kitty who was the key.

I remember that when Kitty Hawk casually mentioned this fact, Maca didn't know much about the rules, but now that I think about it, it undoubtedly involves the application of space rules.

"Rowena left this spatial rule on the bronze eaglet, probably trying to use it as the last line of defense for Hogwarts Castle, right?"

This thought naturally flashed through Maca's mind in an instant.

Yes, the rules of space are one of the several third-level rule runes recorded on the 'Scroll of Truth'. Rules of this level would be fine if they were broken runes that made up the Traceless Stretching Spell, but if they were complete runes, they would definitely require a lot of mana to activate and maintain.

In this way, it doesn't seem so strange that the bronze eaglet has exhausted all its magic power like it is now, and even its body has cracked.

"No, wait—"

Suddenly, as if sensing that something was wrong, Maca subconsciously looked back at Hogwarts Castle again, and a strange feeling made him close his eyes and ponder.

"What's wrong, Maca?"

McGonagall saw that he had suddenly put on a thoughtful look, and at first she was worried about disturbing him from thinking, so she didn't speak. But after waiting for a long time without him talking, I finally couldn't help but ask.

"It's nothing," Maka shook her head and opened her slightly closed eyes, "Something else!" For example, when did Helpo leave? Did the bronze eaglet and him say anything? And ......"

Speaking of this, Maca couldn't help but pause slightly, and then said with a little hesitation:

"And then there'...... Is there anything you would like you to tell me? ”

"This-"

McGonagall visibly hesitated.

"In my opinion, it should have something to say to you, but it didn't say it in the end...... It muttered to itself, 'There's nothing left to say about it now,' and flew to the top of the castle. ”

As she spoke, she also raised her head, looked at the bronze eagle statue on the top, and said:

“…… After that, I was completely immobile, so I didn't know what kind of battle the two had fought after Helmo flew up and out of my sight. By the time I was finally able to move, Helbo was gone. ”

"'Nothing to say'?" Maca chewed on the sentence for a moment, then turned to look at McGonagall, "Is that all?" ”

"Ahh One more word! McGonagall thought about it again, and then frowned and said unconfidently, "It seems to have muttered something relatively quietly before it flew to the top of the castle...... It seems to be related to Rowena Ravenclaw, the founder of Hogwarts......"

She struggled to recall the slight tone of the bronze eaglet at that time, and only after a moment did she say slowly:

"Maybe ...... something like a 'miscalculation'?"

Even though Professor McGonagall was skeptical, apparently unsure of her own memory and interpretation, Marca's expression changed subtly again and again after hearing her say so.

"Rowena? Miscalculated? Where are the miscalculations...... Is it the 'Helbo reappearing in the world'? ”

"Well, it doesn't seem wrong to say that there is a miscalculation here, after all, she planned to get rid of Helmpo completely, and for this reason, she did not hesitate to let her husband live to the modern ......."

"Ahh No, at the end of the day...... What exactly is Rowena's purpose? ”

That's right, it's always been the case – the farther Maca goes down this so-called "alternative" path and the more he learns, the more he feels that there is nothing but contradiction and confusion.

At first, he thought that Rowena Ravenclaw, one of the founders of Hogwarts, was planning to select future generations to solve a legacy puzzle for Hogwarts, but in fact the Bronze Kitty said so at the beginning;

But after that, when Maca gradually uncovered more old secrets, Rowena ...... No, the impression of "Royna Mira" on him seems to be gradually filled with evil and fear.

However, as more and more complicated events take place, and as he traces the remnants of Rowena from various other angles, the line between good and evil in the other party becomes blurred again.

What exactly is Rowena Ravenclaw up to...... It seems to have become a "worst problem" with many clues, but in fact there is no one to connect to the answer.
