Chapter 560: The only idler in the manor
Chapter 560 The only idler in the manor
It can be seen that Helena is more incredible than Kyle that she can wear the crown.
"What exactly is going on…"
Helena looked at Kyle. Just when she was about to say something, her pearl-white body trembled violently, and the expression on her face was full of shock, panic, and disbelief.
Then, in a panic, she tried to take the crown off her head, but her hand went directly through the crown.
“Take it easy, Helena.”
Kyle said with a smile: "Didn't you want me to help bring a message to your mother? It just so happens that Ms. Ravenclaw also has something to say to you."
“As for me, I’m not very familiar with the working process of owl. I really can’t do things like sending messages and letters. It would be bad if I don’t remember any words.
“So, I took it upon myself to trick you into coming here. I hope you can understand.”
Helena didn’t speak, but pearly white tears flowed from her eyes.
The tears fell to the ground, and then turned into a hazy smoke, and floated back into Helena's body.
"We haven't seen each other for more than a thousand years. You must have a lot to say... Then I won't disturb you."
Kyle walked to the door, opened the door and walked out.
"Oh, right?" He seemed to suddenly think of something, and turned around and said: "If you need anything, just call Tata... He is the house elf here, as long as you call his name in this manor , he can hear it.”
After saying that, Kyle closed the door gently.
As soon as the oak door was closed, the sounds inside completely disappeared.
Although Kyle was also curious about the gossip in the Ravenclaw family, now was obviously not the time to gossip, and they probably didn’t want to have an outsider standing next to them while they were talking.
Kyle followed the corridor and soon returned to the hall of the manor.
Tata was wiping the crystal ornaments on the table with a piece of flannel. After seeing Kyle, he quickly stopped what he was doing and bowed to say hello.
"Don't mind me, Tata." Kyle said. He looked around and found that only Tata and himself were here.
“Is Mrs. Perenelle also helping Nico refine the magic stone?”
“Yes, the hostess is also helping.” Tata replied.
"All right."
Kyle found a chair and sat down casually, while Tata continued to wipe the crystal ornaments.
After about a few hours, there was still no movement in the room. Neither Nico nor Ravenclaw seemed to have forgotten that he was still here.
Lunch was prepared by Tata. It was very rich, but also very deserted.
Because he was the only one eating at the long dining table, Nico and Perenel did not come out. According to Tata, they had been eating in the alchemy room recently.
As for the two people in the room, a ghost and a memory, they obviously don’t need to eat.
The only remaining Tata, after serving the last dessert, he didn’t know where he ran.
It wasn’t until Kyle had eaten that he suddenly appeared in the corner of the room again.
A few more hours passed. Kyle was getting bored of waiting, so he simply stood up and asked, "Tata, can I go to the opera room upstairs?"
They haven’t seen each other for more than a thousand years. In this short while, the topic between Helena and Ravenclaw is probably not going to end. He has to find something to do for himself.
Listening to opera is a good way to spend time. Although Kyle can't understand it, there seems to be no better place to go.
However, after hearing this, the elf immediately became alert. He still remembered that Kyle and Dumbledore discussed dismantling the room and taking it away.
“The master said that you can go to any room here.”
Tata said, and then added, "But sir, you can't destroy the house. There is a spell from the owner here. If you try to destroy the wall, sir, you will be injured."
“I just went to listen to an opera, why did I want to destroy the wall?” Kyle asked confused, not understanding what Tata meant.
"No, it's nothing. Tata was just talking casually... I'll take Mr. over here." The elf quickly put down the flannel in his hand and led Kyle to a room upstairs.
This place was still as empty as before. Kyle walked to the wall directly opposite the door and pressed a symbol on it.
Almost in the blink of an eye, a large band appeared in the empty room. Listening to the melodious orchestral music, Kyle turned to Tata and said, "If a ghost comes to you, please tell me as soon as possible."
“Ghost?”
Visibly to the naked eye, Tata's body trembled.
"Sir must be joking with Tata. There are no ghosts here. Tata knows..." he said tremblingly, and Kyle could even clearly hear the clicking sound of his teeth.
"Are you... afraid of ghosts?" Kyle couldn't help but ask.
"Tata is not afraid!" the elf said sharply: "Tata just... just doesn't like them."
“Okay then.” Kyle said, without revealing the elf’s self-deception.
It's just a fear of ghosts, nothing to make a fuss about. Most freshmen don't do much better than Tata when they first meet the ghosts in Hogwarts.
"That's good." Kyle continued: "If you hear someone calling you, just come to me directly. Don't be afraid. The ghost is also Nico's guest and will not scare you."
Hearing the word "guest", Tata suddenly became less scared. Although he still looked nervous, at least his teeth no longer chattered.
“That ghost...guest, when will he find Tata...”
“I don’t know about that.” Kyle thought for a moment and said, “It could be today, it could be tomorrow, I’m not sure, but it shouldn’t be too long.
"If you are scared, you can stay with me for the next two days. If you find anything unusual, you can tell me as soon as possible."
“Tata is not afraid.” The elf said with a stiff neck, but still refused to leave the room.
Kyle shook his head in amusement and said nothing more. He took out his wand and conjured a chair for himself and Tata, and then sat on it to enjoy the opera performance in the room.
…
However, Kyle listened to it all day long.
The next day passed, but there was no sign of the oak door being opened.
Every time we eat, Kyle is always the only one at the table.
“Wait a minute, they haven’t really forgotten themselves.” Kyle cursed in his heart.
Looking at the empty dining table and hall, he suddenly had the illusion that he was the owner of this manor.
Finally, after breakfast on the third day, Kyle stopped Tata who was about to leave.
“Can you please help me find a mirror?”
"Of course, no problem." Tata nodded and said, "What kind of mirror do you need, sir?"
“An ordinary mirror will do, but it needs to be larger, preferably with a wooden frame.” Kyle said.
Soon, Tata found the mirror he wanted. It was similar to the Mirror of Erised in the principal's office. It was just the right size and had a rosewood frame on the outside.
Kyle asked Tata to place the mirror in an empty room, and then followed him in.
He originally thought that Helena and Ravenclaw would only be able to chat for a day or two at most, but now it seems that a week or two may be enough.
There are also Nico and Perenel, both of whom have no intention of leaving the alchemy room.
Although the opera is indeed good, you can’t listen to it for two weeks.
More importantly, everyone is busy. If you don’t find something serious to do, others will think you are free...
So Kyle decided to find something to do for himself, such as trying to make a magic item... the mirror that he saw in the room before, which could store Nico's memories.
Because of the crown, the magic formulas and symbols engraved on the mirror are no longer as difficult to understand as before. In addition, Kyle also clearly remembers the function and location of each magic text.
Although it is quite difficult for Kyle to completely reproduce these magic words after losing the blessing of the crown, he still wants to try it. Anyway, he is idle. If he can Success.
Oh, by the way, there is also the magic spell "Vulcan Opens the Way". After discovering the existing problems, he is also going to practice it again to see if there is any difference from before.
In a while, you can ask Tata to see if there is a spacious and sturdy place here where he can use this magic spell with confidence.
