Hogwarts: What are the four great masters doing?

“Just say it in your mind three times – that’s the magic number.”

But at the time, the room was just an idea.

At least until Ryan returned to 1991, Ravenclaw hadn't finished the room.

But Ryan already knew where Ravenclaw planned to locate this room.

"It is the crystallization of wisdom, and of course it should be contrasted with stupidity."

The silliest thing about the whole Hogwarts scene, of course, is "The Troll Strike Barnabas"—what could be sillier than trying to teach a troll to dance?

So Ryan came here.

He felt that if Ravenclaw had indeed left a treasure for him inside Hogwarts, it would most likely be in this room.

So now, he is very proud.

"Ravenclaw's wisdom...it seems like I inherited it perfectly!"

He pushed the door open triumphantly, and then he was stunned on the spot.

Because at this moment, there was nothing in the room he opened.

There wasn't even a floor in the entire room, and Ryan was suspended in the air.

He looked up at the 'ceiling' - it was a starry sky.

There are countless stars in the starry sky, emitting bright light in the dark room.

"Did I guess wrong?"

So Ryan's pride disappeared.

He seemed to see the great witch walking out of the room and saying to him coldly, "Being swayed by emotions before seeing the results—you're still a long way from here, Ryan."

"..."

So Ryan quietly left the room.

Ryan took a deep breath as he watched the door in front of him slowly disappear.

He still didn't intend to change his opinion. He still believed that the treasure left for him by Ravenclaw was in this room.

so...

"Something Rowena Ravenclaw left behind."

He repeated it three times in his mind.

So when he opened his eyes, the smooth door appeared in front of him again.

So Ryan opened the door again, and this time the scene behind the door did not disappoint him.

At this moment, he was in a huge room with various things placed in the room.

There was a crystal ball - Ryan recognized it. It was the crystal ball used by Ravenclaw for divination. It came from a magical settlement in Rwanda, Africa.

There was a jeweled monocle—the kind Ravenclaws loved to wear while reading.

There were spellbooks—Ryan saw quite a few he had seen before.

There were crucibles, alchemy books and spoons, and Ryan even saw many helmets and armors.

"After I left, the Ravenclaw teacher became obsessed with this kind of thing again?"

Ryan didn't find it strange.

In his memory, Ravenclaw was such a person.

She is full of curiosity about all knowledge and has a spirit of research into everything.

But when he thought of this, he couldn't help but think of the scene he saw in the Sorting Hat's memory.

The great witch is dead.

After realizing this, Ryan, who was originally filled with nostalgia, suddenly became depressed.

He didn't think any more and just walked around the room silently.

He tried hard to suppress the sadness in his heart and tried to find the treasure that might be left for him.

And soon, Ryan saw something.

It was a crown placed among a large number of alchemical dolls.

It is made entirely of mithril, with fine patterns engraved on the surface and inlaid with blue lapis lazuli. The jade is as deep as the sky.

The crown is topped with an eagle's head with outstretched wings, and vine-like fabric forms its wings.

Ryan didn't even need to get close to know the words engraved inside the crown - "Extraordinary wisdom is the greatest wealth of mankind."

It was one of the Ravenclaw teacher's most proud alchemical creations, into which she had infused her wisdom.

"Could the thing the teacher left me be her crown?"

So Ryan stepped closer to it, thinking in his heart.

But it was at this moment...

"Come on...Come on..."

A low murmur entered Ryan's mind.

"Lian Elias."

"I can feel you—great ambition, great talent."

The sound was wet, gloomy, and cold, like the hissing of a snake.

"Take me, possess me, follow me... I will lead you to great deeds, I will take you with me—over death."

Chapter 23 Strong Muscles Are the First Step to Becoming a Duel Master

The cold, deep voice seemed to go directly into Ryan's mind.

That magical and seductive voice was enough to bewitch most young wizards.

But Ryan is clearly an exception.

He was confused for a moment before he immediately woke up.

"Buzz!"

He could clearly see a dazzling green light flashing on the pendant around his neck.

That voice wasn't an illusion—there was someone around!

So, Ryan flicked his right wrist.

The wand from his right sleeve was swung into his hand, and he swung it: "Protego!"

"Armor protection!"

"Armor protection!"

Casting the Shield Charm three times in a row was enough to earn Professor Flitwick's sharp roars and endless praise.

Shield Charm - the most commonly used protective spell in the wizarding world today, but it is not easy to learn.

In today's wizarding world, even adult wizards may not necessarily use it.

But Ryan is only in the first grade - to be exact, today is just his first day of school.

He was able to cast the spell, and he successfully cast it three times in a row, which was amazing!

but...

"too weak!"

Ryan was still not satisfied at this time.

"The power of the Iron Armor Spell is weaker than the original 'Spirit Protection'... Oh, according to today's custom, it should be called ancient magic!"

Ryan knew the prototype of the Iron Armor Spell - it was a spell called the Guardian's Blessing.

He knows the spell, but...

"I have too little magic power now, and the power of magic is too weak!"

He felt the invisible armor that wrapped around him.

"Even with the triple armor charm, it can only resist a few spells from an adult wizard..."

"too weak!"

He instinctively made a judgment in his heart, so he lowered his body and looked around more vigilantly.

Then he discovered...

He saw no possible enemy nearby.

“Come on, come on…”

The voice continued to enter his mind - and it was not until this moment that Ryan was able to determine the source of the voice.

"The teacher's crown..."

He was certain that the source of the gloomy voice came from the Ravenclaw crown in front of him.

After a careful inspection, Ryan's expression changed instantly.

His eyes became sharp and his expression became a little cold.

Because after inspection, he discovered something abnormal about the crown - inside the crown, there was an evil soul.

"That spell created by the despicable Herpo..."

There was anger in Ryan's low voice.

That's right.

He recognized the spell.

Horcrux——Actively splitting one's own soul to escape the evil curse of death!

This curse originated from the ancient Greek wizard Herpo the Vile, who existed even longer than the Big Four.
