169. Talk to Dumbledore about Horcruxes
Ravenclaw glanced at Dumbledore and beckoned to Lady Grey, curled up in a crying ball.
"Come here, Helena."
"Mother's ......"
Ms. Gray looked up slowly.
"Come here."
Ravenclaw looked at her tenderly.
"Yes."
Lady Gray slowly got up and floated to the portrait.
With a flash of white light, her body vanished.
Immediately afterwards, Helena, a girl in the form of a girl, appeared in the painting.
"Mother?" She looked at Ravenclaw in a daze, "What am I?" ”
"Helena, my daughter."
Ravenc labored and hugged her softly.
"You can live with me in the painting for the time being, and your portrait can be used as your support."
Scott watched in amazement.
It is worthy of Ravenclaw, who pulls Ms. Gray into the painting, who is a ghost.
Such a method is incredible.
"This ......"
He heard Dumbledore muttering in surprise.
"It's amazing magic......"
At this point, Ravenclaw turned to look at the three men outside the painting.
"I'm sorry." She said, "Please bring the crown to the room where I was from, and I'll find a way to remove that soul fragment." ”
As soon as she finished speaking, the painting sank into the wall and vanished.
"Albus!" Professor Flitwick asked with some excitement, "Horcruxes...... Is it reversible? ”
Dumbledore shook his head.
"I never knew." He sighed, "It seems that no one can say that they have reached the end of the magic road. ”
He looked at Scott again.
"Looks like you already know something about Horcruxes, Scott."
Scott nodded.
"Medea also survived with Horcruxes." He said, "After hearing about it, I went out of my way to find out a little bit. ”
Dumbledore nodded, not asking him what he knew.
"What do you think of Horcruxes?" He asked with interest.
"That requires splitting one's own soul."
Scott shook his head in disapproval.
"It sounds like the Lich in Muggle fantasy, they're usually hopelessly insane."
"So that's what you think?" Dumbledore said happily, "But ......"
He pretended to speak ill of people behind his back and was afraid of being discovered, "I think both Tom and Medea are really crazy. ”
Of course, there are many people in the wizarding world who call you an old madman.
Scott belly slander.
"The act of splitting souls seems to me to be tantamount to self-harm." Scott told the truth, "I don't think that's a good thing. ”
He truly believed that the integrity of the soul should be the most important thing for a person.
"Of course, you're right, Scott!" Professor Flitwick immediately said in a tone of praise.
Dumbledore nodded in satisfaction.
"It's a pity Tom didn't think so." "He was lost in his quest for power," he regretted. ”
Scott said disapprerovingly, "That's just his personal choice." ”
He simply let go in front of Dumbledore.
After all, he knew that he couldn't disguise his temperament in front of this old man.
Sure enough, Dumbledore was not surprised when he heard his words, but asked curiously, "Why do you say that?" ”
Scott replied, "The Dark Lord doesn't mind turning into a goblin in order to gain power, he thinks power is the most important thing. But I always believed that I had to be a human being, and that human identity was more important to me than strength. ”
Human beings are the primates of all things.
Such thoughts were ingrained in his mind.
"Well, that's a novel statement, and it's the first time I've heard of it."
Dumbledore seemed intrigued by his ideas.
"Well, you must think that wizards and Muggles are both humans, the same species."
"That's right." Scott nodded, "Like a grass owl and an owl, although they have differences, they are both owls. ”
"Oh, I love your metaphor!"
Dumbledore let out a happy laugh.
At this point, Professor Flitwick rubbed his hands together and said, "Let's get the crown over as soon as possible." ”
He looked like he couldn't wait.
"It's fine."
Dumbledore pulled out his Elder Wand and waved it, sending the crown flying.
Then they left the huge room the same way they came.
Back in the hallway, Scott opened Helena's study again.
The eagle-shaped brass ring on the door seemed to have recognized him, and took the initiative to open the door as soon as they saw him.
Scott thanked him, pushed the door open, and walked in.
"You're here."
Scott looked at the painting, and Helena in the painting was no longer lively.
"Ms. Gray?"
"Call me Helena." Helena said, "Ms. Gray was originally nothing more than a rumor. ”
"Okay, Helena."
Scott smiled.
"Go in, Mother is waiting for you."
Helena glanced at the crown that Dumbledore was manipulating and flew through the air, and opened the door to the inner room.
"Thank you, Helena."
Dumbledore nodded, and walked into the inner chamber with the crown.
Scott and Professor Flitwick followed him.
"I'm sorry for you."
Said Ravenclaw in the painting.
"Please place the crown in the center of the room."
Dumbledore swung his wand, causing the crown to fly automatically to the center of the room and to the ground.
"You can leave." Ravenclaw said, "Please come back here in seven days." ”
Dumbledore froze for a moment, then nodded in agreement.
"Then we'll take our leave, Miss Ravenclaw."
Professor Flitwick's expression was a little tangled, and he looked back several times as he left.
After returning to the hallway, he said regretfully, "What a pity, I also want to see how Lady Ravenclaw is going to remove the fragment of that person's soul without destroying the crown." ”
Dumbledore also looked regretful, "Since it was Miss Ravenclaw's request, we had no choice but to comply. ”
Scott glanced back at the bare wall.
He'd love to see it, too.
"Professor Dumbledore." He asked Dumbledore, "What did you do with that notebook before?" ”
"Completely destroyed, of course."
Dumbledore spread his hands.
"Ordinary spells can't even cause any damage, and as a last resort, I used a very dangerous spell."
"Oh, Albus, what spell did you use?" Professor Flitwick asked him curiously.
"Fire Spell." Dumbledore whispered.
Professor Flitwick's face changed, "Oh, that's a dangerous dark spell, it's hard to control, it's hard. ”
"That's right."
Dumbledore glanced at Scot again.
"It reminds me of the last night in the Forbidden Forest, when young Mr. Trollope took a striking response to a wizard who was casting a fire spell."
"Oh?" Professor Flitwick turned to look at Scott, "How did you do that, Scott, I haven't heard you talk about it." ”
"It's just a trick."
Scott said.
"I cast a happy spell on that wizard."
"Happy Charm?"
Professor Flitwick's eyes lit up.
"It does work, and probably the best way for you little wizards to deal with it! Oh! You've always impressed me, Scott! ”
