Chapter Seventy-Five: Waiting
Helga's beautiful face was filled with a hint of reminiscence, and the woman's natural acting skills made her seem to really tell stories that happened in history.
"At that time, there was only one treasure, but there were too many transcendents to get it!"
"What follows is a catastrophic battle in the wizarding world."
She glanced at Princess Anne, who was listening intently, and there was a subtle, just right amount of sadness in her voice.
At that time, except for the few magic families that remained neutral because of the magic oath of "banning demons for a hundred years", the rest of the more than ninety-five percent of the magicians and extraordinary knights participated in that war. ”
"And then, who won in the end? Who got the item? ”
Princess Anne, who was a little fascinated by the listening, asked.
"Who gets it? No, Annie, there was no winner in that battle. According to what I know, the ancestors' accounts of that war, those extremely powerful knights and wizards in the war, all died in the final decisive battle, in the powerful forbidden magic unleashed by the other side! ”
"Together?"
Anne wondered what kind of treasure could make these legendary supermen, known for their erudition and strength, so mad.
"Yes!" Helga nodded affirmatively.
"Didn't you notice? After the Middle Ages, there were a lot fewer fantasy rumors about wizards and powerful heroes all at once! ”
"And we, as you may have guessed, are one of those magic families who have made a magic oath and "banned demons for a hundred years". ”
Then she seemed to suddenly think of something, and directly broke out a big news. Let some people who are hidden behind the scenes and have ulterior motives be surprised when they hear the news.
"Speaking of which, that treasure was finally obtained by you decades after the end of the Holocaust."
"That thing, not only for our magical world, but also for the history of your Muggles."
There was a hint of suspense in Helga's voice. This made Anne, who was sitting on the side, also start to feel a little apprehensive in her heart.
But fortunately, Helga didn't sell off.
"Even after so many years, there are still people who will remember the name of that thing very clearly."
"Your grandmother, Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth, for example, must know about it!"
"We call it the Dragon's Jewel, and you."
Helga paused deliberately, with a hint of mystery in his tone.
"Call it the 'Cosmic Rubik's Cube.'"
・・・・・・・・・・・・・・
"Smack!"
On the outskirts of London, the capital of England, beneath the vineyards of a remote farm, is an underground building that covers an area of thousands of square meters and is tens of meters deep.
This building, with its famous name, is "MI6". (It's the British secret service unit that 007 is in.) )
MI6's chief boos "M" monitored Anne and Helga's conversation through a long-range satellite construction system.
Fortunately, although the information dictated by Helga is more detailed, it is generally consistent with some historical records of the royal family and some ancient aristocratic families.
But when she heard Helga talk about the "Cosmic Rubik's Cube" that had changed the world, owned by the Nazis and the Hydra Organization, she was still startled and almost broke the pencil in her hand.
――――――――――――――――――――――――――――・
"Cosmic Rubik's Cube"? Anne repeated the name in her mind a few times, memorized the letters, and was ready to ask her grandmother, Queen Elizabeth III, the monarch of the United Kingdom, when she returned home.
"Can you show me the power of magic? Helga, I don't mean anything else, just very curious. ”
Anne said a little shyly. Although she was indeed very curious about these mysterious things, asking Helga to show her the power of magic at the right time was one of the things her father Crown Prince William had told her before she came to the island for a vacation.
"It's alright, Annie, it's been a long time since we've been there, and it's time for people to see the power of magic."
Helga said calmly, the reincarnation bracelet on her wrist that Edward had personally ordered had reminded Anne of when she first came to the island.
The platinum stud earlobe on Anne's delicate left earlobe will record some of her conversations with Anne and convert them into a special kind of radio waves, which are transmitted.
But Helga didn't care, or rather, the conversation between her and Anne could get through as part of Edward's plan.
Helga gracefully stood up from his recliner.
A thick dusk yellow magic power unleashed from her body, slowly lifting her whole body up, levitating in midair.
Then, a pressure as heavy as a mountain emerged from the slender body and spread rapidly in all directions.
Anne only felt her heart being squeezed by a thick gravity, and her whole pretty face revealed an unnatural dark red. Fortunately, Artoria on the side noticed that something was wrong with Anne in time, and the dull hair on the top of her head shook rapidly.
"Sister Helga, there's Anne here!"
"Hah, I forgot!"
Helga stuck out her tongue in embarrassment, and the dim yellow magic light from her body converged into her body.
An incomparably huge magic array quietly appeared at the bottom of the sea, slowly taking shape with the influx of Helga's huge magic power.
"Look, Annie!"
A miraculous scene appeared before Anne's eyes.
At the surface of the sea, a kilometer away from the beach, the atmosphere began to shake.
The red clouds that had been covered with sunset in the evening had become thick and black at some point.
Then, the thunder exploded.
An incomparably spectacular stout waterspout with a diameter of tens of meters, with majestic water vapor and strong winds, swept everything on the sea.
The blonde hair danced wildly in the air by the wind blowing in the air. The tall woman suspended in the sky, with mystery and majesty, gazed at everything in front of her.
"Is this magic?"
Anne was stunned to see this incomparably spectacular and incredible scene in front of her, and she muttered unconsciously.
"That's magic!"
Artoria walked over to Anne's side, already with a silver wielder, separated by the flying debris of Helga's waterspout.
She had a big smile and the goofy hair on the top of her head swaying from side to side.
"Want to learn?"
――――――――――――――――――――――――
After giving some of the fragments of the "Destroyer" that he recovered to Tony, the two bastards who were far away from their wives (Pepper went to Morocco for a meeting, which I mentioned earlier) hooked up in the bright lights of the metropolis of New York for a few days.
Then, Edward and Tony say goodbye.
After so many days off, it's time to get down to business. Edward's mind moved, and the space-time gate that flashed with a faint golden light opened instantly.
The next moment, his figure appeared on the tallest tower of Hogwarts House Castle.
"I haven't seen you for a month, but it's changed a little bit!"
In the distance, the town is not the first empty town with only a few hundred people, and the dense flow of people and floating carriages on the streets is endless, and it seems to be very lively.
And in all corners of the academy castle. Everywhere you look, young mage apprentices reading big magic books or talking loudly about new spells.
This made Edward suddenly and inexplicably feel that he was old.
He gathered a water mirror in front of him, and his handsome face came into view.
Edward raised an eyebrow and used his magic to control the breeze to blow a nice bang on the hair on his forehead.
Then narcissistically nodded.
"I still look so handsome."
At this time, on Edward's shoulder, Alice's small body condensed into a physical entity under the abundant pure magic of the private space "Hogwarts", and her little face with a happy expression rubbed comfortably on Edward's neck.
"Alright, alright!" Scratched a little tickled by Alice, Edward said with a smile.
"Alice, go and tell everyone to come to the council hall."
"It's time to tell them some plans for what's next!"
"Then, just wait for you to do it, Loki ・・・・・・"
