The major events that occurred at Hogwarts seemed to have come to a tumultuous end due to the deliberate delay of the Ministry of Magic.
Scott didn’t know what kind of efforts Dumbledore had made. In the end, the “Daily Prophet” published a wanted portrait of Medea, defining her as the murderer of the “Hogwarts Massacre”.
But the newspaper did not publish her name, instead calling her “an unknown crazy and evil witch.”
It seems that the Ministry of Magic does not believe that she is the daughter of Slytherin.
Of course, the introduction in the newspaper also warned all wizards that this witch was very dangerous.
Scott believes that this may also be Dumbledore’s efforts.
Of course, with the Ministry of Magic’s whitewashing operation, it’s hard to say how much weight this warning carries.
Because after the newspaper was published, Medea seemed to have quickly become a star in the magical world with her unique beauty.
She had a cult following even among the students at Hogwarts.
A drama of “three views follow the five senses” was truly staged.
This reaction undoubtedly surprised Scott.
He couldn’t help but think of the news he had seen in his previous life. Some extremely vicious serial murderers in Europe and the United States had a group of crazy fans.
He couldn’t help but think that if Voldemort hadn’t been disfigured, there might not have been so many opponents.
Early Saturday morning.
After Scott got up, he went to the deserted common room and found Ms. Gray in the corner of the college library.
“Good morning, Ms. Grey.”
“Good morning, Scott.”
Perhaps because she was already familiar with him, Ms. Gray was no longer so cold when facing him.
Scott told her directly: “I want to complete Ms. Ravenclaw’s next commission.”
“That’s fine.” Ms. Gray nodded, “You go ahead and go to the corridor where the house is.”
Scott responded and left the common room.
When he trekked all the way to the eighth floor of the castle’s main building, Ms. Gray was already waiting there.
At this moment, Scott wanted to ask why there wasn’t a magic spell that could allow him to pass through the wall like the ghost.
He took a few breaths and walked back and forth in the corridor three times, concentrating on reciting “Helena’s study” silently until the door appeared again.
This time, the copper ring on the door did not speak, and the door opened automatically.
Scott pushed the door open and walked in, waiting for Ms. Gray to enter before closing the door.
“You are finally here!”
A crisp voice said excitedly.
It was Helena in the painting. She looked at Scott happily.
“Come talk to me, Scott!”
“We are busy,” said Mrs. Gray. “He has no time to talk to you.”
“I didn’t call you! You are so annoying, Helena!” The girl in the painting stared at her dissatisfied.
Ms. Gray ordered her, “Okay, open the door quickly, Helena, we want to see our mother.”
“Alright alright.”
The girl in the painting seemed unable to refuse the request, and obediently allowed the door hidden behind the landscape painting to appear.
Scott stepped forward, opened the door and walked in.
“Hello, Lady Ravenclaw.”
He saluted respectfully to the Ravenclaw in the portrait.
“Hello, kid.”
The Ravenclaw’s voice was soft.
“You did it, the oath has been broken.”
Scott answered her, “But something happened. Medea was reborn and left Hogwarts.”
“That’s not your problem.” Ravenclaw said very reasonably, “I only ask that you break your oath.”
“That’s great if you think so.” Scott laughed.
“Mother.”
Ms. Gray floated up to the portrait.
“Medea may cause chaos and bring war.”
Ravenclaw smiled and nodded, “You and I are both dead people, Helena, and there is no need to interfere with the current magical world.”
“But……”
Ms. Gray seemed to disagree.
“Do you think what happened to Medea was caused by me?” Ravenclaw asked her.
“No.” Ms. Gray shook her head, “It’s my fault. My mother signed the oath with her because of me.”
Ravenclaw sighed, “Wizards say I am famous for my wisdom, but I sometimes make mistakes.”
Scott understood that Ravenclaw had probably never thought that Medea could really wake up under the influence of the oath.
“Actually, Medea’s rebirth and departure are inevitable.”
Ravenclaw said again.
“Before that, I went to the principal’s office.”
“Could it be…”
Scott couldn’t help but blurt out.
“Yes.” Ravenclaw looked at him and said, “I told Dumbledore that he cannot attack Medea until the oath between Medea and the castle is completely broken.”
“Why?” Ms. Gray asked.
Ravenclaw replied, “That will cause magic chaos inside the castle, and it will lead to disaster if you are not careful.”
Although Scott had some guesses, he didn’t expect this to be the real reason.
No wonder Dumbledore acted so poorly that night.
Ravenclaw said soothingly: “Don’t worry, it’s difficult for Medea to be completely reborn.”
“Is it a problem with the magic source?” Scott asked her.
Ravenclaw nodded, “It will be difficult for her to find a place with a huge source of magic like Hogwarts to hold the transformation ceremony.”
“I thought she would just keep eating wizards,” Scott said.
“It’s not that easy.” Ravenclaw said, “The change in the magic environment has made many previous spells ineffective, and the demanding transformation rituals are even more difficult now.”
“So that’s how it is.”
Scott felt relieved.
“She has no oaths to trade now, and has lost the huge source of magic that can be used, so her strength will not be strengthened for the time being.”
In his perception, the magic power of Medea is only slightly worse than Dumbledore’s. If it is strengthened, it will be too terrible.
At this time, Ms. Grey took the initiative to speak, “Mother, Scott is here to receive your second commission.”
“Very good.”
Ravenclaw nodded slightly.
Seeing Scott looking at her, she whispered, “Child, the second commission is about my crown.”
Scott waited for her to finish.
“You must find the crown to complete the task.” Ravenclaw said, “Maybe Helena knows where it is.”
She doesn’t know as much as I do.
Scott thought.
But Scott didn’t say anything, but looked at Ms. Grey.
Ms. Grey said, “I stole the crown from my mother and ran away… Anyway, I hid it in a forest in Albania.”
This mother and daughter are really good at ordering people around!
Scott complained.
If the crown is really in Albania, then this commission is really a trap!
“I can take you there.” Ms. Grey seemed to think that he was unwilling, “I’ll lead the way for you.”
“Are you sure the crown is still there?” Scott reminded her, “Will someone steal it?”
Ms. Grey’s face suddenly turned ugly when she heard this.
