Chapter 555 Ravenclaw's Letter
After a thousand years, Helena stepped into Ravenclaw's secret room again. She stared at the room obsessively, and suddenly lost her mind.
A towering circular bookshelf came into view, against the wall, thousands of leather-bound grimoires, and crates of ancient scrolls... stacked layer upon layer to the roof.
Thousands of years have passed, but the furnishings here have not changed at all, just like back then.
This feeling made Helena feel a little dazed. For a moment, she felt that she had returned to her carefree girlhood, and a long but familiar picture appeared in front of her eyes:
The mother was looking at the little wizard who was tortured by the stairs and was about to be late with a wicked smile through the crystal ball;
Hufflepuff bit her quill and racked her brains to write the recipe. She had just discovered a crop called carrot in Persia and was going to use it as a side dish;
Slytherin was communicating with a basilisk the size of a bowl, using a Parseltongue, hissing, he didn't know what he was talking about;
The young Helena copied other people's homework, including her name, so she was punished to stand with a crystal ball on her head.
And Gryffindor listened patiently to Helena's cries, and expressed sympathy for the trouble she caused by being stupid...
Thinking of this, Helena's beautiful face was suddenly filled with sadness... because this has been a thousand years ago.
The past is like smoke, and it all evaporates.
Rove also revisited his hometown again after a thousand years, but he was not as sentimental as Helena, with a lot of emotions.
He used the time machine made by Ravenclaw to cross a long time and space. In terms of real feelings, he just came back here after a few months.
What Rove thought more was that he would be the master of this secret room in the future!
Hermione, who was a bookworm, her eyes fell on the magic books that covered the bookshelves, and she couldn't take her eyes away anymore. She praised repeatedly, and stretched her neck to read the titles of those books.
"It's so shocking here!" she couldn't help but exclaim.
These are Ravenclaw's spellbooks, even if they are only from her era, they are thousands of years old... Thinking of this, Hermione couldn't contain her excitement.
The girl intends to stay here permanently and "gnaw" these books. Even if the villain Rove takes the opportunity to make excessive demands...she will agree without hesitation...without frowning!
Careful Shirley noticed something on the table in the center of the room. After she approached, she glanced down and called softly:
"Rove, here is a letter, it seems to be left by Ravenclaw..."
Before Rove could speak, Helena had already shouted, her voice full of heart-wrenching excitement.
"A letter from my mother? It must have been for me!"
Helena couldn't wait to float towards the table, but when she landed on the ground, she saw the words on the envelope clearly, and her whole body froze.
The signature on the envelope was indeed Rowena Ravenclaw, and Helena saw that it was her mother's handwriting, but the letter was not addressed to her, but to...
Rove!
Helena was stunned for a moment, she couldn't believe her eyes, and then looked at the letter carefully again, and it was indeed clearly written on the envelope - "From Rove Scamander"! !
But how is this possible? Mother and Luo Fu are clearly separated by a thousand years, and it is impossible for them to know each other. How could she leave him a letter? !
Helena was puzzled, but then she thought again, her mother was the famous Ravenclaw—the wisest witch in the world—she must have a way to see Rove across a thousand years.
Therefore, they must have known each other a long time ago, so that Rove knew that his nickname was "Stupid Beauty", and he could still have the key to the secret room!
No wonder Rove has such a strong motherly breath!
Helena's heart was full of twists and turns, and she suddenly had an outrageous and bold idea:
Could it be that the man I want to marry is my father who has never shown his face in a thousand years? !
No... Helena immediately put away this ridiculous thought from the bottom of her heart, she couldn't accept this kind of thing!
Helena would rather believe what Uncle Gryffindor said, that she was picked up by her mother from the trash!
Rove didn't know that Helena had already thought up a small essay that subverted ethics in his mind. If he knew, he probably couldn't help feeling:
Helena, you have such a brain, why don't you write a novel? !
The teenager picked up the letter straight away, and used his thumb to lift off the blue sealing wax with the shape of "Eagle" printed on it, and then pulled out a letter.
The three girls, Shirley, Hermione, and Helena, leaned over to Rove's side, and read the letter that spanned thousands of years:
Rove, when I write this letter to you, you and Cassandra Trelawney should have arrived in the kingdom of Nadia and met the goblin Ragnac and his reforged sword.
I told you that the magic material of that sword came from a broken sword, a weapon forged by ancient wizards before the doomsday catastrophe came, and was found by Gryffindor in the ruins.
That sword is very important, you have to find it after a thousand years, and keep it properly... Remember this.
I'm going to the forests of Albania to find Helena. So, by the time you read this letter, I must be dead.
But grieve not for me, for as I say at the well of death, I have seen my destiny.
I enclose a map with this letter. That map was drawn by me after I entered Avalon by mistake seventeen years ago. It will be useful to you.
Of course, for you, a thousand years have passed, and many landforms may have changed, so you should pay attention to screening.
In this secret room, there are ancient wizard materials I have collected over the years, as well as the notes I wrote, and the death well, all of which are left to you.
I will seal up the room. In the future, you have already got my silverfish, and it will become my key.
But remember, anything in this secret room is forbidden to be taken out of the room.
The time converter you used, Helga is going to keep, can only let you go back on the time ball I invented... Although it has some errors, it is still good.
I remember you said that the time-turner belonged to your classmate Hermione Granger. As compensation, the production process of the time ball is left in the secret room, and you can pass it on.
Helga was calling me to eat, and she wanted me to add: Don't forget you still owe her a lot of money.
Finally, take care of Helena and the girl who has access to my grave.
Rowena Ravenclaw.
Rove put the letter back into the envelope and sat in the lonely and deserted secret room. He stretched out his palm and gently smoothed the envelope on the table.
Shirley, Hermione, and Helena were also speechless for a moment.
