Chapter 149: About Myrtle
Arthur turned to Cedric and asked, "Cedric, how is the Holy Grail made?" Are you having any problems?"
In the Holy Grail War game, the Holy Grail exists to provide magic for the seven Servant Heroic Spirits involved in the war, and if the Holy Grail is not made, then the whole game will probably not go smoothly.
Therefore, the production of the Holy Grail is also very important.
"It's going well, I'm having some minor problems at the moment, but after questioning the professors, it's been solved perfectly. Ninety percent of the grail is now complete, and the chalice will be ready in about a week."
The corners of Cedric's mouth turned up, and he smiled confidently.
"Very well, at this pace, then we can make the Holy Grail War game before Christmas."
Arthur smiled slightly, as long as the Holy Grail War game is made, then the students of the entire Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry will love it.
When the Holy Grail War game catches fire, he will earn more money.
Now I owe more than 163 million gold galleons to the audience, and I have to earn more gold gallons as soon as possible to pay off this foreign debt.
"Christmas... Time flies, and it's 10 days before Christmas."
Cedric sighed that the college life in the second half of this year was the fastest year he had in the past three years.
"yes, I don't know why, I always feel like this year has been going by so fast." The Wesley twins looked at each other and agreed.
"That's because we were so full in the second half of the year, so it feels like time flies so fast." Arthur explained.
"Alright, come on, everyone. Strive for us to make a Holy Grail War game before Christmas."
"Okay!"
"No problem!"
"I can't wait to play this game."
"Haha!"
The three of them responded to Arthur with a smile.
......
After separating from Cedric and Wesley, Arthur made his way to the library.
Regarding Myrtle's disappearance, Arthur prepares to use his writing skills to bring her back. But because it is unclear why Myrtle disappeared and what state she is in at the moment.
Arthur did not dare to use his writing skills indiscriminately without the premise of finding out the reason.
Written stories will become reality, but if the story doesn't follow the logic and is driven by inexplicable reasons such as "inexplicable" or "strange", the cost will increase.
Whoever speaks, will be known. When you know it, it knows you and all the people you come in contact with. The more you know about it, the more likely it is to be written into the woven story.
Arthur didn't know anything about Myrtle, but knew that she was a student of Voldemort's contemporary, and when Voldemort released the basilisk, Myrtle happened to be in the bathroom, so she was unlucky enough to be killed by the basilisk.
And Myrtle's death was also the reason why Hagrid was expelled from Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, because Hagrid liked to raise all kinds of weird and terrifying magical animals.
Voldemort took advantage of this and slandered Hagrid as a murderer.
All of the above is the only information Arthur knows about myrtle.
But as for the information about Myrtle herself, Arthur never understood.
So this time in the library, Arthur is going to look up the materials of the students who used to be in school.
Half an hour later, Arthur found that the name of Myrtle had not been found in the student logs of Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, which made him a little puzzled.
"Lady Gray, are you free now?"
The library didn't find the information he was looking for, so Arthur thought of getting it from the ghosts who lived at Hogwarts all year round. So he went to Hogwarts Castle in search of the ghost who had lived here the longest.
Soon, he found Mrs. Gray in the classroom next to the lounge on the top floor of the castle.
Mrs. Gray, whose original name was Helena Ravenclaw. is the daughter of the founder of Ravenclaw.
She should be a proud, a little timid, face-saving, but kind-hearted and cultivated lady. She has been seen in several scenes of the Harry Potter films.
For example, Harry, Ron, and Hermione were sitting in the classroom when she tried to alert Professor McGonagall that someone was stealing the Philosopher's Stone. As Harry checked Tom Riddle's diary, she was floating past him.
She is a Ravenclaw ghost and we can assume that she is intelligent. She may have had something in common with Dumbledore, watching the whole thing unfold. In Part 7, Harry's elimination of the Horcrux, the Ravenclaw Coronation, helped him a lot in some way.
In order to gain greater wisdom, Helena Ravenclaw stole her mother's crown and was accidentally killed by the Bloody Barrow while being pursued by the latter. And her death also indirectly led to her mother's later death.
Later, when she became a ghost, she was tricked by Tom Riddle Jr. into telling the location of the Ravenclaw crown. Knowing that she had been deceived, she became wary of everyone and created a small obstacle in Harry's search for the Horcruxes.
That's what Arthur knew about the old ghost in his previous life.
"Yes, Mr. Pendragon. Your Twilight is brilliantly written. Do you still have any plans to write a follow-up plot?"
Mrs. Gray, who was sitting at the table by the window reading a book, raised her eyebrows and smiled at Arthur.
"I'm currently working on it, and I'll probably be able to finish the second part of 'Twilight' after Christmas."
"yes, that's great. By the way, is there anything you can help me with?"
Hearing this, the smile on Mrs. Gray's face became even stronger, although "Twilight" is about the love between vampires and Muggle humans, but the story is so exciting, Mrs. Gray unconsciously substituted herself into the heroine when she read it for the first time.
I fantasize that I can also experience such a bastard and fierce love.
"Lady Gray, Peeves said that a ghost had recently disappeared, and he was a little worried. So please ask me to find this ghost. But I don't know much about this ghost. So I want to ask you what kind of person this ghost, known as the weeping Myrtle, was when he died."
"Crying myrtle? There's still this ghost in Hogwarts Castle?" Mrs. Gray asked, confused.
"It's the ghost that has been staying in the girls' bathroom on the third floor." Arthur explained. Lady Grey is one of the oldest ghosts at Hogwarts, and she doesn't know what Myrtle says, so it's a bit of a stretch.
"Oh, I remember. A crazy little guy." Mrs. Gray was stunned for a moment, and soon remembered who the weeping myrtle was.
"Her name was Myrtle Elizabeth Warren, and she was a Ravenclaw student who enrolled in 1941. Poor child, I don't know why I died.........
Half an hour later, Arthur and Mrs. Gray parted. Having learned about Myrtle's deeds, he stood in the hallway and pondered for a while, then walked towards the Slytherin common room.
It's getting late, and in about ten minutes, it's curfew. Arthur didn't want to be caught by Filch again.
Although he holds Filch's handle in his hand, he keeps using this handle to blackmail Filch, and Arthur can't do this kind of thing.
"Could it be that Myrtle is seeking revenge on Oliver Humbe again?"
Lying on the bed, Arthur begins to reason about the whereabouts of Myrtle.
The reason why Myrtle was killed by the basilisk who had just come out of the secret room was because she hid in the women's bathroom and cried because she couldn't stand Oliver Humbe's cynicism, and then heard someone coming in and hearing them whispering. She could tell it was a boy's voice, so she opened the door to remind her that it was the women's bathroom, but she collided with the basilisk.
After her death, the ghost-turned-Myrtle chased after Oliver Humbe and harassed her, trying to make her pay for laughing at herself, until the Ministry of Magic intervened.
So Myrtle eventually went back to the women's bathroom, where she would cry whenever she felt pain
Crying and crying, getting water everywhere.
Arthur guessed that the appearance of the previous ancient creations had more or less affected the Ministry of Magic's tracking spell on Myrtle, and Myrtle noticed this and ran out of Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry to find Oliver Hombe, who had bullied her as a student.
Arthur repeated the reasoning three times, and determined that this conjecture was the most probable, so he got out of bed, took out his diary from under his pillow, and began to write a story.
The general content of the story is that Myrtle sees that the elderly Oliver Humbe can't even eat a mouthful of liquid food, his body is sick, he is incontinent, and even his house-elves dislike him. Myrtle looked at Oliver Humbe like this, finally let go of her hatred, no longer prepared to take revenge on the school bully who had bullied her, and began to return to Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry......
"Huh? Didn't you use up your stamina?"
When Arthur thinks the story of bringing Myrtle back to Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry is perfect enough to be activated with his writing skills, he realizes that his stamina has not been depleted at all.
This means that his story has failed and will not happen in the future.
"What the hell went wrong?"
Arthur scratched his hair in annoyance, this story was created by gathering a lot of information about myrtle.
Myrtle disappeared from Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, and the only possibility is to seek revenge on the person who bullied her back then.
Apart from this possibility, Arthur could not think of anything else that could make the ghost, who had been in the bathroom for fifty years, leave Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry.
"By the way, maybe the Ministry of Magic can find out Myrtle's whereabouts......
Arthur's eyes lit up at the thought of the Ministry of Magic, but soon darkness sank.
He has a bad relationship with the Ministry of Magic, and he is still a first-year student, so it is impossible for the Ministry of Magic to inquire about the whereabouts of Myrtle for him.
Thinking of this, Arthur quickly gave up on the idea.
"Forget it, go to bed first. I'll go to Hagrid tomorrow and ask about Myrtle when she was a student. After all, he is Myrtle's senior, although he is not an academy, but he should know her ......."
......
"Mr. Pendragon, please wait!"
The next day, Arthur, having finished breakfast, was about to leave for Hagrid's cabin. But while walking in the hallway, he was suddenly stopped by the house-elf Rocky.
"What's the matter? Rocky." Arthur asked, confused.
He had already helped Rocky exorcise the ancient creations on Kreacher's body, and also took away the Slytherin locket box from Kreacher's body. Now Arthur sees Rocky, implying that Rocky is trying to help Kreacher retrieve Slytherin's locket.
"Lord Pendragon, you helped us destroy that terrible monster. We house-elves thank you very much. But our house-elves don't have any wealth of their own, so we can't afford to thank you with money."
"However, I know that Lord Pendragon loves to collect all kinds of precious magical creatures, so I asked my companions to help you find a very rare magical creature, you see!"
With that, Rocky pulled out a huge box from behind him, and under Arthur's puzzled gaze, he opened the box.
"This is the Farsman Rabbit, a magical animal that wizards consider extinct."
"Well, thank you so much."
Arthur didn't know what was precious about this strange-looking rabbit, but when he heard that it was already considered an extinct magical creature, he decided to take it anyway.
"This creature is so precious that you'll need it after you've fully digested the Sequence 9 writer's potion."
When Arthur entrusted the Farsman rabbit to the house-elf silk, Arthur sensed the audience's emotions, and he quickly took out his diary and saw what the audience wanted to say on the cover of the diary.
"What the hell went wrong?"
