127. The first condition of the oath is:
As the offspring of a legendary wizard, is it all that stressful?
After listening to Ms. Gray's story, Scott thought playfully.
I don't know if Hufflepuff and Gryffindor have direct descendants.
"At that time, I only knew that Medea was often saddened by the lack of praise from her father, but I did not know that she would be as far ......as she is now," said Ms. Gray.
She turned her head to look at the portrait of Ravenclaw.
"You know, Mother, the purpose of her oath with you."
She said firmly.
"I can't believe you didn't see through her thoughts, you would only be irrational when you faced me."
"Of course I know what she's trying to do." Ravenclaw said calmly, "But the conditions under which the oath will work are so harsh that I don't think she'll ever have a chance to wake up completely." ”
Scott stood aside, looking at them with confused eyes.
He was tempted to say ......
The Riddler get out of Hogwarts!
"Oh, I'm sorry, Scott." Ms. Gray looked at Scott.
Noticing his eyes, she seemed to come back to her senses.
"I should have made it clear to you." She said apologetically.
"I really only understood it." Scott said.
While something could be deduced from their conversation, Scott wanted to hear the details as well.
It's good to satisfy your gossip heart.
"That was before I made a mistake."
Ms. Gray said.
"Slytherin's sudden absence of a farewell was a blow to Medea, and she knew she had no chance of getting the praise she wanted."
She seemed to be caught up in the memories.
"She had genuinely thought that one day she would make Slytherin proud of her daughter."
Scott said: "I remember her saying...... Did she ever ask you for help? ”
"Yes, she's so proud."
Ms. Gray said with some embarrassment.
"She wants to break her father's engagement to her, she doesn't like the Gaunt, she wants to keep her Slytherin name."
Scott was a little incomprehensible for a while, if he regretted his marriage, it would be good not to marry, and ...... Helena didn't seem to be of much help.
His expression was palpable, at least both ladies could read his thoughts.
"The marriage contract of that era could not be easily broken, it was a contract with magical effects."
Ms. Gray explained.
"She wanted me to help her convince my mother to come forward and dissolve the marriage."
Scott looked at Ravenclaw again.
Ravenclaw smiled helplessly.
"Medea's child begged us, but it was Salazar himself betrothed to his daughter."
She shook her head.
"Neither I, nor Helga, nor Godric, have the right to meddle in the marriage of two wizarding families."
"Why did Slytherin do that?" Scott was a little puzzled, "After all, he named his daughter Medea, didn't he?" ”
Although he has a bit of an eccentric taste, according to Ravenclaw's explanation, he still loves his daughter.
"Salazar only thought about one thing, Medea will not be wronged after marrying into the Gaunt family."
Ravenclaw sighed.
"He thinks that Medea, who is generally talented, can live a peaceful life after marrying into the Gaunt family, but he doesn't know that that's not what Medea wants."
She looked at Ms. Gray again.
"I made the same mistake as Salazar."
She said softly.
"We don't know what's going on in our hearts, we're busy with school, we're always lacking communication with our children, but we're all conceited that we can control everything."
Miss Gray shook her head.
"In short, Medea's struggle failed."
She continued to say to Scott.
"After I escaped, she graduated from Hogwarts, and before she got married, she secretly found her mother to sign that vow."
"That's when I learned that Medea had such great ambitions." Ravenclaw smiled, "She's worthy of Salazar's daughter." ”
Hearing her say this, Scott became more and more curious about the content of the oath.
Ravenclaw said apologetically, "It's a pity that I was bedridden and sad because of Helena, and I didn't have much energy to help her." ”
"Why did she ask you to sign a contract?" Scott was also curious about this.
But Hufflepuff and Gryffindor are there, too.
"Because Helga and Godric are both more principled than I am, they won't agree to anything in the castle that would hurt the students, even if the odds of it happening are pitiful."
Ravenclaw said bluntly.
"But I'm different, Medea knows that only I will promise her. And, only I don't think that's a disservice. ”
Scott nodded understandingly.
Ravenclaw, he knows.
Ravenclaw added, "I wanted Barrow to help me secretly find Helena, but Medea was the only one who could stop him." ”
"Barrow?" Scott pretended not to know.
"Bloody Barrow." Miss Gray said in a cold tone, "It's the ghost of Slytherin House right now. ”
Ravenclaw nodded, "Barrow is a student of Salazar, and Medea can use her identity and Salazar's kindness to Barrot to stop him." ”
Scott gave Ms. Gray a surprised look.
She doesn't seem to understand what she has to do with Barrow the Bloody.
"It doesn't matter what happens between Barrow and me." Ms. Gray said indifferently.
"At that time, I had a hunch that my time was running out." Ravenclaw said, "I desperately want to see Helena again before I die." ”
"So you agreed to Medea's request?"
Scott asked, but he wasn't too surprised.
"Yes, I promised her, and helped hide it from Helga and Godric."
Ravenclaw said.
"After I've confirmed the terms and conditions of the oath."
"So, what exactly are the terms of the content of the oath?" Scott couldn't help but ask.
Ravenclaw said, "The first condition of the oath is that Medea will return to Hogwarts in a special form after her death, but she will fall into a complete sleep until her bloodline descendants are sacrificed with soul power, and she will not really wake up." ”
Soul Power Sacrifice?
Scott raised an eyebrow.
Could it be Voldemort's diary?
That's not right!
He thought again.
Before the diary was destroyed by the professors, Milton had heard the sound of the organ twice.
What the hell is going on?
He suddenly felt a little aggrieved-
Because he shouldn't know about the Horcruxes, he can't ask at the moment.
"Bloodline descendants?"
He could only ask questions, hoping for answers.
"Could it be Voldemort? But how could he sacrifice his soul? ”
At this point, Ms. Gray said, "I've already looked into this matter. ”
