Chapter Seventy-Two: Souls and Ghosts

"No, you've been trying to nurture me to the best of your ability, and I'm not fighting ......," Helena sobbed at the sound of Miss Ravenclaw.

"No, it's me who demands too much of you." Ravenclaw shook his head and smiled. "I always want you to surpass me and set you too high goals, but I ignore the order, stage and individual differences of education. I was supposed to train you gradually, in stages, and according to your aptitude, but unfortunately I was too eager at that time, and after all, I gave you unbearable pressure......"

"I used to think that human wisdom was the greatest treasure of mankind. It wasn't until after you left that I finally realized that a beautiful family relationship is just as great! ”

Hearing this, Helena could no longer cry, and crystal tears passed down her delicate cheeks and dissipated in the air little by little.

"Okay, she's already a girl who is about to turn a thousand years old, why do you still cry so much?" Miss Ravenclaw smiled and stood up from the bronze chair and opened her hands to Helena.

Shevin let go of Helena's left hand and delicately pushed her into Ravenclaw's arms.

When the two came into contact, Lady Ravenclaw's pure white marble body magically glowed with crystalline light, and Helena's ghostly body actually touched with it!

At the moment of embracing, the knot between the mother and daughter that spanned thousands of years was finally untied.

After a long time, Lady Ravenclaw let go of Helena, turned to look at the bored ghost Xiwen floating beside her, and said, "Mr. Ghost, you don't seem to have introduced yourself to me yet?" ”

"Oh, okay!" Xiwen pulled back his thoughts that he didn't know where he was flying, and once again took out the words that he had memorized, and said skillfully. "My name is Stephen Strange, I come from the ancient civilization of the East, because I love to travel the world, I deeply feel the bondage of the body, so I take the initiative to cast spells......"

"Stop, Mr. Strange." Lady Ravenclaw's wise eyes swept over and whispered. "I think we should all be more sincere with each other, so I don't need to repeat this rhetoric here. What do you say, Mr. Strange? ”

Shevan was shocked and looked at Lady Ravenclaw in a daze.

Ravenclaw smiled confidently and said to him, "Actually, I don't study much about the human soul, but Salazar is very good at it, and I have learned a lot about the soul from him by the way. ”

"A normally formed ghost is not a complete soul, but a fragmented spirit that remains in the world by obsession, and therefore cannot absorb new knowledge and skills, and will forget many things that happened before death. Just like Helena is in her current state. At this, she glanced at Helena with pity. Because of this, no one will admit that ghosts are alternative immortality. ”

"But that doesn't seem to be your case, Mr. Strange. I can see that your soul is so intact that even now, you are unconsciously inducing the magic that is escaping from the air around you. ”

"Even if you can really give up your body and become a ghost, if you want to move freely like a real ghost, you can only give up part of the weight of your soul based on an obsession. However, doing so also results in a loss of the ability to absorb knowledge and skills. Therefore, this reason does not explain your current state at all. ”

"So I can conclude that you are not a simple ghost at all, but a real soul body!" Ravenclaw looked at Shevin with a wise gaze and said in a tone of great certainty.

"Stephen, you're ......" Helena looked at Shevin in disbelief, speechless in shock.

"Shall I say that I am worthy of Ms. Ravenclaw?" Xiwen sighed heavily and said with a wry smile. "I'm sorry, Helena. I lied to you. ”

"No, I don't believe it!" Helena couldn't believe that after the joy of being reunited with her mother, she had to experience another sadness of being deceived by her partner.

"That's why I said, Helena, you're too gullible to trust people!" Xiwen sighed.

He knew that there was no point in continuing to hide it at this time, and slowly revealed his origin: "I come from another world, and I have lived in a magical practice holy place called Kama Taj since I was a child, because the soul is not in harmony with the universe ......."

He recounted in detail the story of his crossing the multiverse due to his soul being at odds with the universe and finally being accepted by the current world, as well as his relationship with Shivin Rozier.

“…… Multiverse? Ms. Ravenclaw listened to Shevin's account with some fascination, but finally shook her head regretfully.

Helena was relieved after listening to Xiwen's narration, and said firmly: "So you didn't deceive me at all, you just didn't tell me something!" ”

"You did live in the East in the world you used to have, and you did have a great teacher, and it is true that you have been sick since you were a child! So you didn't lie to me at all! She said to Xiwen with a proud face.

"Huh?" Xiwen was completely stunned, and began to reflect suspiciously on whether he had lied to Helena.

Miss Ravenclaw chuckled and began to ask curious questions, "So you came into this world and were accepted by the body of Shevin Rozier, right?" ”

"That's right." Xiwen nodded and said.

"And what about the original soul of this body?" Ravenclaw stared at Shevin and asked sharply.

Hearing her question, Xiwen shook his head helplessly and said with a wry smile: "Actually, I also want to know this question." After my soul body entered my current body, I didn't find any signs of the original soul in this body, and it stands to reason that even newborn babies wouldn't be in this situation! ”

Lady Ravenclaw thought for a moment, showed a sudden expression, and then said with some heaviness: "Then it is very likely that someone has already done something to this baby before you came to this world, and I have heard of more than one kind of dark magic that erases souls!" ”

"What?" Xiwen's eyes widened suddenly, and he said angrily. "In other words, someone has long wanted to target the Rozier family! And they are ashamed to do it to babies? ”

"It stands to reason that if that person hadn't done something to the baby, you wouldn't have this newly acquired body. You should be thankful to him. Ravenclaw said as he stared at him with a smirk.

"It's different!" Shiwen shook his head and replied. "If the price of getting a new body is a living life, then I'd rather not have this body!"

"What's more, it was Sandrine who made me experience motherly love for the first time, and I actually accepted this new identity in my heart. The past, present, and future of the Rozier family are to be guarded by me. This is a fate that I have accepted since I got this body! ”

Xiwen's eyes gradually hardened.
