The Wind and the Wings of Hogwarts

Even though he himself is a fake teenager with memories of his past life, he still gets creeped out by seeing other children who are too mature and worldly-wise.

Monday night arrived quickly.

Scott was notified and went to Professor Flitwick's office.

Good evening, Professor.

Scott greeted them and sat down on the sofa without asking.

"You've come, Scott!"

Professor Flitwick jumped down from the chair behind his desk, seemingly unable to contain his excitement, and paced back and forth in the office.

“Ms. Ravenclaw’s appointment is today,” he muttered to himself. “Once Albus arrives, we’ll go over there together.”

“Okay,” Scott replied.

Although he sat firmly, he was actually quite excited inside.

It wasn't because of Ravenclaw's crown.

Rather, it's because after today, it means he has completed both of Lady Ravenclaw's commissions, and it's time to collect his payment.

He is about to have a magical portrait containing most of Ravenclaw's knowledge as his full-time personal professor.

For Scott, this was certainly more valuable than the Ravenclaw crown itself.

Even if a crown is incredibly magical, it is still just a magical item.

Today, its symbolic meaning far outweighs its practical significance.

In any case, the crown will ultimately belong to Ravenclaw.

Since it could never belong to him, Scott stopped thinking about it.

At this moment, he was already imagining what valuable knowledge he could learn from Ravenclaw.

Tap, tap, tap...

A soft knock sounded, and Professor Flitwick quickly ran to open the door.

"Oh! Albus, you've come!"

His voice was somewhat shrill from barely suppressed excitement.

Scott then stood up and walked to the door.

"Good evening, Felius, Scott," Dumbledore said with a smile. "Let's go."

The three walked through several corridors and arrived at the location of the Room of Requirement.

Scott opened Helena's study once again.

"good evening."

Inside the study, Helena, who was depicted in a painting, smiled at the three of them.

"You've come at the perfect time."

She looked very happy.

“Mother has purified the crown.”

The inner door appeared, Helena disappeared into the portrait, and then her voice came from inside the door.

"Please come in."

Outside the door, Dumbledore smiled and stepped aside, gesturing for Professor Flitwick to go in first.

Professor Flitwick straightened his bow tie and robe, and solemnly pushed open the door.

The door opened, and Scott and Dumbledore followed Professor Flitwick inside.

The inner room remained empty, with only the Ravenclaw and Helena depicted in the paintings on the walls, and the crown on the floor.

As the three entered, their eyes were drawn to the crown that had become dazzling.

"Good evening." Ravenclaw smiled as he looked at the three people who entered. "As you can see, the crown has been restored to its original form."

Professor Flitwick snapped out of his reverie and quickly bowed to the portrait of Ravenclaw.

Good evening, esteemed Madam Ravenclaw.

Seeing that the dean had already bowed, Scott quickly followed suit and bowed as well.

“No need for formalities,” Ravenclaw said softly. “From now on, the crown will be kept at Ravenclaw House, under the care of the Dean.”

“This…” Professor Flitwick said excitedly, “This is your item.”

Ravenclaw shook his head. "I no longer need it, so let it remain in the house to help children in need. Of course, how it is used is up to you, the headmaster."

At this point, she looked at Dumbledore again.

"What do you think, Principal?"

“Of course.” Dumbledore nodded in agreement. “Everything will proceed as you wish, Ms. Ravenclaw.”

“In that case, you may take it with you,” Ravenclaw said.

Professor Flitwick nodded, walked to the middle of the room, squatted down, and carefully held the crown in both hands.

The Ravenclaw in the portrait said nothing more, but simply watched them leave.

Scott wanted to ask about himself, but he held back.

Since Ravenclaw didn't bring it up, he should keep it a secret.

As the last person to leave the inner room, he looked back one last time.

Ravenclaw winked at him.

Scott felt more confident and decided to come back alone when no one was around.

The three quickly returned to Professor Flitwick's office.

Professor Flitwick solemnly placed the crown on his desk, cushioning it with a soft blue velvet cloth.

"Do you have any ideas, Philius?"

Dumbledore asked him.

"This matter cannot be kept secret; many people in the magical world will be curious about the crown."

"Oh!"

Professor Flitwick seemed to awaken from a dream.

"This……"

He thought for a moment, then said firmly, "I will keep the crown safe. No one except the Ravenclaw children is allowed to touch this treasure!"

"Of course I believe you."

Dumbledore said.

"Of course, I will also help you resist external pressure."

“Thank you, Albus!” Professor Flitwick said gratefully.

Dumbledore added, "But we must be cautious about the use of the crown, and it is not entirely a good thing for students to come into contact with such magical items rashly."

Professor Flitwick didn't immediately understand. "What do you mean?"

"Just like how Hogwarts students would secretly take potions like Buffet before every exam; students could never resist that temptation."

"Dumbledore said slowly."

“We cannot allow students to become dependent on magical items like crowns that can increase wisdom; that would do them no good.”

Professor Flitwick listened and nodded repeatedly.

"You're right, you're right, I have to be careful," he muttered to himself.

He thought for a moment and then said, "I will announce that only students who are mature in thought and of good character can apply for this."

Dumbledore nodded and added, "It must be used under your supervision and cannot be taken out of your office."

Professor Flitwick agreed with his suggestion.

"Of course, you should decide on the specific rules, since you are the headmaster of Ravenclaw."

Dumbledore said one more thing, then said goodbye and left.

As soon as he left, Professor Flitwick became agitated again.

"Oh! Legend has it that this crown can increase wisdom, that's unbelievable."

He walked around the desk.

“I think we can both give it a try, Scott.”

At that moment, he acted like a child.

Chapter 186 The Trial of the Ravenclaw Crown

"Why don't you give it a try first?"

Scott said to Professor Frivy.

"Take a look and see if this crown is as magical as the legends say."

"Shall I give it a try?"

Professor Flitwick stopped circling his desk and looked at Scott.

“Of course,” Scott said with a smile. “You are the most suitable candidate.”

"Then I'll give it a try."

Professor Flitwick nimbly climbed onto the chair, reached out his hands to pick up the crown, and put it on his head.

"Oh!"

His hand touched the wizard's hat on his head.

"I forgot to take off my hat!"
