Chapter 561: Successor to Filch?
Chapter 561 Successor to Filch?
In the room, Kyle held the wand and used it as a quill, drawing glyphs and symbols bit by bit on the rosewood frame.
Drawing magic text is not writing with ink. Once you make a mistake, you cannot modify it. This is destined to be a very boring job and requires enough patience and concentration.
Fortunately, Kyle just meets these two conditions.
And when focusing on the magic formula, time seemed to go much faster. Kyle had just finished drawing half of the frame, and it was already a week later.
This also means that the Easter holidays are almost over.
This morning, the house elf Tata brought over a plate of sandwiches and bacon as usual.
The dining table was too big, and he was alone, so it was more comfortable to eat here.
Kyle picked up the sandwich casually and was about to put it into his mouth when a head suddenly popped out of the plate and stuck right in front of Kyle.
This sudden scene was so frightening that Kyle almost threw the sandwich in his hand, and Tata next to him let out a piercing scream and howled out of the room.
“Ms. Helena…”
After coming back to his senses, Kyle said with lingering fear: "When did you learn Peeves' tricks?"
"No wonder Peeves likes to play pranks so much," Helena said brightly, "It's really fun."
She seemed to have changed into a ghost, her tone was relaxed and cheerful, and the expression on her face was no longer the preoccupied one before.
She is smiling, and she is smiling happily.
One thing to say, as the daughter of Ravenclaw, Helena can be regarded as raising the average appearance of the Hogwarts ghosts. She was like this when she had a straight face before, but now she can probably charm the **** Barrow when she smiles. Becoming mentally retarded.
"Ms. Helena, one Peeves is enough in the castle. If there is one more, I'm afraid everyone will go crazy." Kyle put down the sandwich in his hand and said helplessly: "Are you done talking?"
"Not yet." Helena shook her head, "But mother said that we can communicate in the future, so we should leave time to you now."
“Give it to me?” Kyle raised his head in confusion.
“Well, you’ll find out when you get there,” Helena said, “but you’d better hurry up, the Easter holidays are about to end.”
Kyle nodded, put away his wand and the mirror half painted with magic words, turned and walked towards the previous room.
Tata had already screamed and ran away.
Kyle came downstairs and found the room, opened the oak door and walked in.
The crown is placed on the table, very conspicuous.
When Kyle picked it up, he hesitated slightly whether to put it on or not.
“Don’t worry, mother is here and she won’t let you be affected by the crown.” Helena, who followed behind, said, and Kyle could hear a hint of pride in her tone.
As a daughter of Ravenclaw, this is perfectly normal.
Without any further hesitation, Kyle placed the crown on his head.
This time, he did not feel the magical state he had experienced before. Kyle let out a breath, and he couldn't tell whether he was disappointed or grateful.
"Thank you, child." Ravenclaw's voice came, "Thank you for bringing Helena here. This child never likes to talk to me, and I rarely care about what she wants... If If I could pay more attention to Helena, she probably wouldn't insist on stealing the crown.
“I didn’t expect that these things that I ignored would actually become a shackles in the end, trapping her for more than a thousand years.”
"Although it's a little late, the misunderstanding is finally resolved." Kyle said, "And Ms. Helena also helped me a lot during the Triwizard Tournament... Oh, this is a competition between European magic schools. , in addition to Hogwarts, there are Beauxbatons and Durmstrang.”
"The school founded by Nellie Davokanova?" Ravenclaw said softly: "Salazar agreed with her teaching philosophy at first, but Godric did not agree, and the two had a big fight. "
Kyle blinked.
The person who can be approved by Slytherin will most likely not be Beauxbatons...so is it Durmstrang?
I didn’t expect that the founder of this school would actually interact with the Big Four. "No matter what, you have solved my biggest problem... and it is a problem that I cannot solve while I am alive."
Ravenclaw's voice was a little erratic, and it seemed that it was not as clear as before.
"As a thank you, I can grant you a request, as I said before, whether it is wealth or knowledge."
Kyle was a little excited.
Although it was a bit too purposeful to say this, he had indeed been waiting for this sentence.
In addition, either Ravenclaw is one of the four giants, it is atmospheric, unlike Dumbledore’s old bee, which also comes with a lot of restrictions.
“I want to learn the disappearing spell.” Kyle said immediately without hesitation.
“The Vanishing Curse?” Ravenclaw thought for a moment, “Is it a spell that erases objects?
Although I can teach you, I must remind you that this spell needs to be used in conjunction with complicated magic words, and even the slightest mistake may backfire on itself and cause irreversible damage. Even in my era, it was extremely dangerous.
We prefer to use the magma swallowing spell. The effect may not be as intuitive as the disappearing spell, but it is almost the same, and it is also much safer. "
The corner of Kyle's mouth twitched. He always felt that Ravenclaw seemed to have misunderstood something. There seemed to be something different between erasing and disappearing.
And it’s similar to a magma curse. Is that what he meant?
I really teach everything...
I have to say that Kyle was a little tempted, but he quickly shook his head and resisted the urge to agree.
“No, you misunderstood, it’s this disappearing spell.”
Kyle took out his wand and pointed it at a book on the table.
Soon, the book disappeared, and when Kyle recited the counter-spell, it reappeared on the table.
"Not bad transformation spell..." Ravenclaw said, "You have already mastered it very well, haven't you? The process of transformation is very stable, I don't think there is any need to learn it separately."
“On objects, that is,” Kyle said. “But I want to learn how to cast it on myself.”
Then, Kyle briefly stated his idea...that is, to use this magic spell to make himself truly invisible.
“What a great idea,” said Ravenclaw.
“Is it possible?” Kyle asked expectantly.
"Yes." Ravenclaw said without any thought: "The biggest difficulty is to solve the magic conflict, so just turn yourself into a squib."
Kyle's excited heart calmed down instantly.
“Then let’s forget it, right?”
How to use magic when you have become a squib? This is impossible in itself.
And he doesn't want to pick up Filch's class yet... although it is indeed convenient to catch those who violate school rules in this way.
“No, it’s another form.”
Ravenclaw continued: "The simplest way is to use a magic item."
“What prop?” Kyle asked quickly.
“Salazar has a locket that connects him to his own magic.”
Ravenclaw said calmly, "When you wear it, the locket becomes a part of your body, but at the same time relatively independent.
"In this way, you can use magic without having any magic power yourself."
