Chapter 168 The Jealous Bloodman Baro
Misty illusion, the middle ground between life and death...
Rove thought silently about Helena's words, and this was the first time he heard the term "blurry and illusion".
He had never seen a spellbook mention it before.
The young man suddenly remembered that in the original time and space, when Harry finally chose to die, he also suddenly appeared at King's Cross Station, where he met Dumbledore who had been dead for a long time.
Could it be that there is a blurred illusion?
"Is the appearance of the Misty Illusion not fixed?" Rove asked suddenly.
"Yes, the Twisted Illusion is both reality and illusion. The appearance there depends on the person who enters. When I entered, it was Hogwarts Castle.
But inside the castle there are no students, no portraits, no ghosts, nothing...not even the stairs, it's just constructed from my memory. "
Helena was silent for a moment and said: "I stayed in it for a long time, but I didn't have the courage to go any further, and I was unwilling to die, so I returned to the human world.
When I woke up again, it was a ghost. "
Rove listened silently, Helena sighed and said:
"I became a ghost, lost the ability to touch the entity, and was bound forever to the place where I lived. From then on, I belonged neither here nor there..."
Rove thought for a moment and asked, "Can anyone stay in the illusion for a long time? I mean, neither rush to death, nor choose to return to the world?"
"I don't know, but I think it's difficult." Helena smiled wryly:
"There is only nothingness in the Misty Illusion, and there is no one. You don't even have the concept of time... Can you stay in this kind of place for a thousand years?"
Rove shook his head.
Breaking away from all entertainment facilities, without even accompaniment, just staying in a silent dead place... Let alone a thousand years, a month may be crazy.
People are social animals, even the top nerds still have access to the Internet and entertainment facilities such as "two-dimensional wives", and they are not completely stripped from society.
"So, you were in the illusion at that time. If you continue to walk, you will die completely?" Rove asked.
"Probably so." Helena said softly:
"I've heard people say that death is just another great adventure, but I was afraid at the time... People who become ghosts dare not face death."
Rove nodded slightly, and continued to ask some questions.
Talking about death with a dead person, although it feels like poking a scar, but who let Helena be the person involved.
Of course, Helena is just a personal case, at most there is a reference value, Rove is going to conduct a large-scale questionnaire survey, anyway Hogwarts has a lot of ghosts.
However, ordinary ghosts must keep this kind of thing secret, and it is because Rove and Helena have a special relationship that she is willing to tell the truth.
The two quickly walked through the corridor and came to the basement classroom where Nick held his death anniversary.
A banner was pulled at the door:
Congratulations on the 500th anniversary of the death of Nicholas de Mimsy Popington!
There was also a pile of wreaths and bouquets on the ground.
Nearly Headless Nick stood at the door with a black velvet curtain on his body. He looked more like...an emcee.
Nick came up to greet him, and he said excitedly: "Ms. Gray, it is a great honor for you to be able to attend my death anniversary."
Every hundred years, Nick throws a death day in imitation of the famous Nick Flamel... Ms. Gray never attended!
Nick always felt that something was missing when Britain's most beautiful ghost was not attending this anniversary.
"My dear friend, welcome, welcome."
Nick looked at the boy again, and said in surprise, "I'm so happy that you can come... Rove, are you alone?"
He didn’t expect Rove to come.
Although the two sides are very familiar, they are not in the same academy, and the living rarely attend the banquet of the dead, so he didn't ask for trouble in inviting Rove.
"Rove came with me." Helena raised her voice and said proudly, "I'm his female companion tonight!"
Nick, who was almost headless, was a little stunned for a moment. He looked at Rove, then at Ms. Gray, then took off his hat with feathers, and bowed to invite them in.
Nick really wanted to remind the Bloodman that Barrow was there, but he hesitated for a moment, and the two had already entered the room.
All the ghosts at Hogwarts knew that the Bloody Barrow liked the pretty Lady Gray.
The bloody Baron often wanders outside the Ravenclaw Tower, and when he sees Ms. Gray, he likes to look at her in a daze.
Any fool can see it!
Ms. Gray is indifferent to everyone, but she walks with a boy, which has to be thought-provoking.
Won't fight? !
Nick thought a little excitedly.
Rove followed Helena into the room. There was a chandelier hanging from the ceiling, and a thousand candles were lit, shining blue light, which looked particularly gloomy.
The temperature in the room is very low, like a morgue. I have to say that the atmosphere is good.
Rove was the only living person, and Helena was so beautiful, which immediately attracted the attention of all the ghosts.
Many Hogwarts ghosts noticed the scene here and saw Ms. Gray and Scamander walking in together.
Myrtle's eyes were about to burst into flames with jealousy, and then she couldn't help crying, why didn't good men get her turn?
No one wants her for free!
On the dance floor, the fat monk who was swinging happily with a group of nuns stopped swinging, and he couldn't help covering his forehead.
Last time, he helped Ms. Gray and sent a message to Rove. He knew that their relationship was unusual, and he told Rove to be more careful...Why are you so aboveboard?
The fat monk glanced cautiously at the man in shackles not far away, and prayed: "You should forgive, you should forget..."
The skinny blood man Baro turned around, his eyes widened, and the shackles on his arms tightened, making a rattling sound.
All the ghosts immediately cleared a large space for him.
Helena stretched out her hand, wanting to grab Rove's hand, although it was undoubtedly penetrated... But the provocative taste can be imagined.
Rove curled his lips, a woman's vengeance.
Of course, men are also very vengeful.
The bloody Baro looked at Rove with hostility, staring at him, as if he wanted to strangle him to death with the chain in his hand.
Nick rushed in. Even though he was dead, he was still very scared. He quickly waved his hands and said, "Music... start!"
A group of ghosts with weird musical instruments played, making a disgusting sound like nails scraping on a blackboard.
Hundreds of milky, translucent ghosts began to waltz across the crowded dance floor.
"Rolf, how about dancing with me?"
Helena's voice was not too loud, but it just happened to be heard by the bloody man Barrow, his teeth were about to be crushed.

(Thanks to the two big guys "Sorrowful Autumn Wind" and "Just Love Wailing Water" for their rewards.
By the way, Harry finally appeared at King's Cross Station and met Dumbledore. The official translation of that place is "Misty and Mirage", not just written by Yaya casually.
Although this translation is not magical, it is an official translation after all. )
