Scott felt that Medea at this moment was the same as Helena in the portrait in the Room of Requirement, and he didn't know why he started talking.

It turned out that Medea was moved when she discovered the true purpose of the music room in the notes left by Slytherin.

The magic of Hogwarts Castle is too powerful.

Slytherin himself is a legendary wizard, so he just uses the castle's powerful magic to do some experiments.

But Medea, who is not so powerful herself, is extremely greedy for the powerful magic contained in the castle.

She has been researching how to use these magic powers to strengthen herself, catch up with the back of her great father, and gain his approval.

After countless days and nights of careful research, she seems to have finally seen a glimmer of hope-

She found an ancient vow-making ritual in the collection of Slytherin that required a vast source of magical power.

This oath serves no other purpose than to follow the principle of equivalent exchange and can be traded with anyone.

It's not money and goods that are traded, but intangible things like magic, talent, and even longevity.

Medea was overjoyed by this discovery.

If she can exchange enough magic and talent, she can become a genius like her father!

But after calming down, she was not satisfied with it.

The oath follows the principle of equivalent exchange, which means that what you gain must lose what you lose.

Medea just wants to be strong, she doesn't want to lose anything.

Later, she began to study and transform it with great pain, and she had some ideas.

This is also the reason why she suddenly wants to regret her marriage.

She confidently felt that she had found a way to become stronger, and getting married was no longer her best choice.

So, she turned to the other three founders, who were friends with her father, and asked her friend Helena.

But everyone politely rejected her.

According to the rules, Slytherin himself made a marriage contract, and no one could interfere unless he himself appeared.

Although Medea, who regretted her failed marriage, was a little disheartened, she quickly cheered up again.

Marriage can't change her desire to become stronger.

She began to devote herself wholeheartedly to her research, trying to improve on the ancient oath.

She didn't want to be a party to the bargain under the oath witness, but to be the master of the oath.

But she failed.

The oath didn't seem to work as well as she had hoped.

The oath can only run on a huge source of magical power, and as a wizard, she can't really control it.

On the eve of graduation, Medea, who is about to get married, is extremely unwilling to choose to leave her achievements.

Since she is alive and can't control it, let's wait until she dies to complete it.

She reinvented the vows, looked into the distant future, and sneaked into the music room to further transform it.

She then tried to convince Ravenclaw with the conditions, and finally agreed to some of the harsh conditions offered by Ravenclaw, completing the signing ceremony of the reformed vows.

Listening to Medea's own revelations, Scott felt more and more that she was a genius.

He didn't understand why a witch who could do these things said that she was mediocre......

Is talent only magical?

In Scott's opinion, Medea was simply erudite and talented.

Medea didn't elaborate much on the process of researching and transforming the vow, but only a few words were beyond Scott's comprehension.

He glanced at Dumbledore, and the old headmaster listened with relish, his eyes lit up.

For the first time, Scott realized the huge gap between himself and a wizard like Dumbledore.

The amount of knowledge alone is already very different!

Medea is still telling.

After signing the vows, her mindset seemed to change again.

Although the content of the oath gave her hope to achieve her goals after death, the harsh conditions of the oath made her dare not die like that.

After graduating from Hogwarts, she seemed to figure it out and compromise.

She obediently got married, and lived the life that Slytherin once wanted her to live in peace.

In her long and trivial life, she seemed to be perfectly integrated into the life of the Gaunt family, becoming an ordinary wife and an ordinary mother.

The vow to stay at Hogwarts was like an unattainable dream, just a witness to the struggle she had fought with all her might when she was younger.

She seemed to have let go of all the emotions she had at that time.

Until she was old, she unconsciously began to think about her youth frequently, and remembered the dream of staying at Hogwarts.

She finally recognized herself.

She doesn't love her husband and doesn't like her children that much.

She has never let go of the obsession of her youth.

She had even forgotten her father's face, but she still wanted the recognition she had never received.

After figuring this out, she became more and more unable to stand a mediocre life.

When she thought about her life's experiences, she was almost suffocated with despair.

Even the old husband and grown children in front of her are becoming more and more hateful in her eyes.

She was quick to act.

She made a doll that was exactly the same as when she was younger, killed her husband who she hated more and more, and turned the doll into her own Horcrux.

“……”

Scott's eyes widened as he looked at Medea, who kept revealing herself.

He was already stunned by the old lady's miraculous operation!

This old lady, you really aren't a good stubble!

Don't you know how many generations have passed, and Voldemort's Horcruxes are also genetic?

And what the hell did your poor husband do wrong!

It's miserable!

Dumbledore, who heard the Horcruxes, was not calm at the moment.

"Horcruxes." He said with some solemnity, "That's an evil spell, I didn't expect you to do it." ”

Medea said disapprovingly, "You should have guessed, Mr. Headmaster. ”

"Indeed." Dumbledore nodded, "But I'm not sure." ”

Medea laughed, "Don't worry, Mr. Headmaster, this is my only Horcrux. ”

Dumbledore didn't speak, didn't show belief or disbelief.

Medea began to continue telling her story.

After crafting the Horcruxes, she returned to Hogwarts without anyone noticing her, pretending to be dead.

She sneaked into the music room, left some of the set-ups, and ended her life.

To be precise, she sacrificed everything she had using a magical ritual.

To be honest, Scott didn't understand too much.

Presumably Medea sacrificed her own body to bind her Horcrux puppet to the oath.

She took a big gamble and gambled everything, leaving only the puppet that had been crafted into a Horcrux.

As long as the conditions of the oath can be met, a blood descendant will be sacrificed at Hogwarts, she will be able to awaken.

This awakening does not make sense, as long as the conditions are met, the vow can make her wake up.

And judging from the harsh conditions of the oath, the chances of her waking up are actually pitifully small.
