Hogwarts: What are the four great masters doing?

At this moment, he is experiencing an unprecedented experience.

He could feel the transformation taking place in his body.

The seed of abundance within him that has become one with him is the source of all these changes.

He felt the seed taking root and sprouting inside him.

It grew roots called 'magic' and gave birth to branches and leaves called 'life'.

It was still small, but it was beginning to grow—just like Ryan's eleven-year-old body.

He felt that every inch of his body was cheering and jumping for joy, filled with unprecedented energy!

Ryan seemed to be able to hear the vision that Hufflepuff had told him in the past.

That was her vision and ambition for her greatest work.

"It will have the properties of the Whomping Willow, and he will be incredibly strong."

"It will have the properties of the snow fig, and he will never feel cold."

"It will have the properties of the beech tree. It will be strong and can recover quickly."

"It will have the properties of the evening primrose, and the night will be his companion."

"It will have the characteristics of an everlasting tree, whose vitality will never fade."

"It will have the properties of the Cat Spirit Flower, and it will become sharp and agile."

"He will possess the properties of the guardian tree. He will be immune to curses and evil, and the creatures of darkness will fear him."

"He will be the best, most perfect life."

Until one moment, Ryan finally opened his eyes.

When he opened his eyes, he saw the top of the giant tree, which was now quiet and deserted, and the nursery below.

The 'sun' above the giant tree had merged with it, so there was no light inside the nursery.

The dim moonlight was not enough to illuminate it - it plunged the nursery into darkness, like a ship sinking into the sea of ​​night.

but...

But in Ryan's eyes, everything is not so.

The night and darkness could not block his sight. Even in the darkest night, he could now see everything.

Just as Hufflepuff had told him...night and darkness could no longer hold him back.

He could see their branches and leaves.

He could feel their presence.

He could hear them.

The sound came from this nursery, from the forbidden forest outside the nursery, and from all the magical plants that existed there.

He heard the breathing of the guardian tree and the humming of the evening primrose.

He heard the laughter of the Everfrost Flower and the cheers of the Whomping Willow.

That is the chorus of "life".

Then Ryan realized the first thing he had gained.

That's a permission.

That authority... comes from the 'Forbidden Forest' itself!

That's right.

During this semester, Ryan had heard of a legend circulating in the modern magical world.

Hogwarts - Britain's only school of magic holds many secrets.

The biggest secret is the area where the castle is located.

It is one of the most magical places in England, Europe and even the world.

According to legend, the four founders transformed this place with their great magic.

They activated the magical power of this place.

It is said that Hogwarts cannot Apparate because of this power, rather than someone casting a spell here to limit Apparition.

It is said that the successive headmasters of Hogwarts have held certain powers that allow them to control some of the secret places in the castle.

Of course, before today, Ryan had scoffed at such statements.

As one of the builders of Hogwarts, he was sure that his teachers had not arranged any permissions when building Hogwarts.

But now, he knew...it really existed!

"..."

Ryan thought about it and tried to take a step forward.

then...

"Fuck!"

From the giant tree, huge vines began to grow out of thin air from the trunk.

They are born in a winding manner, constantly interweaving to form a bridge.

Ryan walked on the bridge, stepping down step by step.

Wherever Ryan passed, the already blooming flowers became more vibrant, and the already rich vitality of the trees became even stronger.

And all the magical plants in this nursery lowered their branches to him at this moment.

They are paying homage to a greater life.

There is no sun in the nursery.

But the nursery welcomed its owner.

Ryan could even clearly perceive it, whether it was in this nursery or in the forbidden forest.

All the plants in Hogwarts seemed to be an extension of his body.

He can control and command them, he is their 'king'.

"what is this?"

So Ryan muttered silently.

"Am I a human being? Or am I a magical plant...the kind that has just sprouted?"

He said this, but his heart was still filled with warmth.

Because he knew that this was a gift from Helga Hufflepuff.

She handed over her highest achievement in life magic, along with the authority of the castle, to her most beloved disciple.

This is the weight of inheritance!

and...

"It's not just this 'authority'."

Ryan could feel it.

This authority is only part of what he gets.

Besides this, the most important thing Ryan got was...

"My life force...is almost unbelievably strong!"

He felt the condition of his body and confirmed that his magic power had not actually been greatly enhanced.

In fact, he didn't use any of his own magic power at all to see the magical scene around him at this moment!

All the changes in the plants around him are phenomena naturally caused by the transformation of his body.

The Seed of Fertility - this is Hufflepuff's greatest product on the path of life magic, which brings Ryan endless and constantly radiating vitality!

Soon, Ryan walked down the path woven by the vines.

He saw again the Thestral in front of him and the corpse of the unicorn beside it.

The former had already torn off many pieces of its flesh and blood, which made its appearance look even more hideous.

But at this moment, Ryan came in front of it.

"Woo!"

He struggled to get up, lowered his head and neighed, as if begging for something.

And Ryan certainly understood what it was praying for.

So, he looked at the unicorn's corpse.

At this moment, the unicorn's body had shriveled up, and its eyes showed a terrifying red light - this meant that it had almost completely turned into a zombie.

"I see... Is this what you've trapped its soul within you?"

Ryan whispered.

"Woo!"

"Of course, I'll help you—just like you helped me."

He answered this while extending his hand.

That's right.

If it were before, Ryan would have simply declared that the unicorn was about to turn into a zombie and was beyond saving - the best he could do was to free its poor soul.

Even a legendary wizard like Dumbledore could only sigh in despair.

But now, Ryan knows...

He can save the other person.

He didn't know how to cast the spell, nor did he know what to do specifically.

But he was sure he could do it—just like the original magic.
