Hogwarts doesn't need a savior

"You've passed. Now is a good opportunity, although it's not as comfortable as in the statue."

With a wave of his arm, the chirping Sorting Hat and the dozing Phoenix immediately fell into a deep sleep.

"During this time, I have been observing and thinking, and looking for clues - about your and Helga's heritage, about the wizards of your time, and those monsters that have disappeared."

Without the possible ears of others, Rowena's tone was lighter, and her words aroused Lynn's interest—seven parts curiosity and three parts well-disguised eagerness.

As the saying goes, when you feel sleepy, reach for the pillow.

Chapter 343 The broad road

By the time Euphemia woke up from her dreamlike state, Rowena and Lynn's conversation had come to an end.

"Smart young man, I hope you can truly internalize my knowledge and develop it into greater wisdom."

Leaving such a blessing, Rowena looked at Lynn meaningfully and disappeared into the wall without a word.

"…What did you talk about?"

"Some very valuable information. Or you could say it's a problem that Rowena and the others were unable to solve back then."

Lin En walked forward and gently put his arm around his girlfriend's waist, his eyes full of joy and tenderness. "We'll talk about this when we get back. First, tell me about your achievements. Rowena herself doesn't even know what kind of message I left in this notebook. This makes me a little curious. Does she allow it to be spread?"

"Well... it's not completely impossible. After all, she recognized you." Euphemia leaned against Lin En, her expression lazy and charming. "You might regret choosing Helga instead of Rowena."

"Oh? You actually gave me such a high evaluation." Lin En smiled in surprise, "But I won't regret it. After all, if you get it, it's the same as if I get it. What's the difference?"

“That’s right~”

A playful smile appears on the flawless face, fresh and full of youthful energy.

At the same time, there is also unprecedented confidence and determination.

"This is what Rowena recorded back then—"

"dong dong dong"

"click"

Just as she was excitedly preparing to tell Lynn, the heir who was not the heir, Rowena's words of admonition, Dumbledore knocked on the door and then opened it.

He came back at the right time, or it could be said that he came back at the wrong time.

Euphemia could only suppress the joy in her heart, pulled herself out of Lin En's arms, and calmly greeted the returning principal.

"Royna has already gone back. Before she left, she asked me to tell you that she will stay in her statue. If you have anything you want to discuss, you can go find her."

Lin En was also a little disappointed. "We will keep her notes temporarily according to the millennium convention and return them at the appropriate time."

"Of course, this is Euphemia's right." Dumbledore smiled as if he had expected it. "I want to congratulate you both. This is a unique achievement."

He looked meaningfully at the still silent portrait on the wall and said, "Perhaps you will be the first couple to reach the true peak of the wizarding path at the same time, and you will each receive the true teachings of Helga and Rowena. This will be a wonderful story."

"Thank you for your kind words," Euphemia thanked her politely.

She was not as humble as Lynn, but accepted the congratulations and blessings calmly.

The paths of the two legendary wizards Helga and Rowena will only allow her to go faster, more steadily and further through learning from them.

In her eyes, this was a matter of course, and she didn't even have the anxiety that Dumbledore and Grindelwald had in the past.

Her outstanding talent and intelligence made her never doubt whether she could walk out of her own unique path, but she did not have the inflated ambition like Dumbledore and Grindelwald.

Dumbledore blinked and said, "I will look forward to that day, and I believe that in the near future, I will be able to witness this magical scene with my own eyes."

He put a slight emphasis on the word "future".

He slowly raised the Elder Wand above his head, and the gentle magic power was like a trickle of water, removing the spell from the portrait and the Sorting Hat. His movements were as smooth and natural as flowing water.

It was not until then that the principals in the portraits discovered that the founder they revered had left long ago, as if it had happened in just a moment.

Equally shocked and dismayed was the Sorting Hat.

"I'm so jealous, little Eric!" he cried. "Rowena ignored me and spoke to you alone! What did she say?"

"Sorry, Sorting Hat, we talked about some topics that are not suitable for public disclosure." Lynn smiled, "But Rowena is grateful for your thousand years of work."

"Ha! I knew it!"

The tattered hat almost jumped up from its place, and the cracked mouth let out a cracked gong-like laugh.

But it didn't seem noisy, but rather friendly, especially after Lin En said the first half of the sentence.

Dumbledore still has a good sense of propriety in these matters.

He just politely asked about Euphemia's work at Beauxbatons, just like an old neighbor he met on the street, chatting for a few words before parting ways.

Although he was indeed very curious, and made a point of asking several older headmasters after the two had left.

It’s a pity that no matter how much they achieved in their lifetime and how much magic was contained in the portraits, they were just ordinary portraits in front of Lynn and Rowena.

-----------------

Not to mention Dumbledore who was thinking hard in the office, on the other side, Lynn, who had just returned home, stretched out as soon as he entered the house and leaned comfortably on the sofa.

"It's still the most comfortable to be back home, where there's no old fox plotting against me all day long."

"He won't be able to sleep well today." Euphemia smiled maliciously.

"It's time to let him suffer for a while." Lin En frowned mercilessly, then broke his composure in a second and asked with a smile on his face, "What did Rowena leave you in the notebook? Tell me more quickly, I've been waiting for a long time."

"In fact, there is nothing special about it - I suspect she input a fixed voice message and said it to everyone, imparting her magical philosophy and the deep principles of the various spells written in this book. It is different from Helga's."

"Like a class? That's very much her style. Helena said that she was the strictest of the four when she was alive."

"That's about it. However, the spells she left behind are very rich and interesting. It is said that there are hundreds of them, each of which carries her thoughts and magical research results. I only wrote down a small part of them, and the rest will have to be learned slowly later."

Euphemia took out the notebook and pressed her right index finger on the eagle emblem. A light appeared and the pages slowly turned, revealing blank paper.

Only wizards who have truly been recognized and have established spiritual connection can see the words on it. This is the case with Helga and Rowena. There is no intention to conceal it. It is a contract magic created by the goblins and perfected by the three of them.

This contract magic itself is precious, because even the fairies have lost it in the long river of history.

But compared to the heavy knowledge contained in the book, this exquisite and effective magic is nothing.

A small magic notebook, only two or three hundred pages thick, records the hard work of one of the most outstanding wizards of all time.

This is a path to the pinnacle of wizardry, and it is a proven, open road that is bright and broad.

It's not the indomitable momentum and skills, nor the unparalleled strength and bloodline, but the purest knowledge, the infinite extension and subdivision of magic - this is magic in the eyes of Rowena Ravenclaw, the dazzling starry sky.

"Three years." After flipping through a few pages, Euphemia's breathing became rapid. "Three years at most. I can transform all of them into my own knowledge. By then, I can reach the same height as her - or even surpass her."

"Of course, you are the most suitable successor to Rowena." Looking at his girlfriend with eager eyes, Lin En said confidently, "And you will definitely go further than her, because we stand on the shoulders of these predecessors and have the opportunity and ability to go further."

After twenty years of being together, no one knew Euphemia's talents and qualifications better than him.

With all twenty-four types of rune magic, endless original spells, and extremely sophisticated elemental magic, no one among her peers can surpass her except Lynn - including Lily Evans, a magical prodigy that has not been seen in decades.

She is one of the rare ones who has successfully realized her astonishing talent through her unremitting efforts.

The road to the summit has been paved, under the dual guidance of Rowena and Helga.

Chapter 344 Reward

The first Saturday in May.

In the Birmingham mansion, Lynn was still busy preparing lunch. Ever since Euphemia focused her attention on studying Rowena's notes, he had to take care of all the chores at home. For this reason, he cancelled the Stargazer Club activities at school this week, went home early every night, and left all the homework grading to Hermione.

Take today for example. Starting from six o'clock in the morning, except for a short time for washing and eating breakfast, Miss Fei was fully engaged like a sculpture sitting in front of the desk. Only the occasional falling feather pen and the growing pile of parchment files showed her existence.

And, of course, there's the coffee that needs to be refilled every hour—with sugar and milk, and the taste and temperature must be just right.

Such efforts would naturally not be without results. In just a few days, she had preliminarily clarified the principles of several long-lost spells. This was a very good start and an excellent starting point for a series of subsequent work.

It was not until noon, at exactly twelve o'clock, that she put down the notebook on time, rubbed her swollen eyes, and walked slowly to the restaurant, just in time to see the matcha pudding in Lin En's hand, which was the after-meal dessert specially prepared for her.

"Well...thank you for your hard work."

She touched the tip of her delicate nose and curled the corners of her mouth slightly as she whispered.

"As long as I am serving the most lovely Miss Fei, no matter how hard it is, it won't be hard." Lin En smiled and untied her apron, and said seriously, "Have a drink and then take a nap."

"Just take a nap... well, I happen to be a little tired."

Euphemia, who was about to decline, changed her mind halfway through her speech, walked forward, and gently hugged Lin En, who still smelled of smoke.

It took a while before he let go.

-----------------

The dinner table is a place where you should relax and feel physically and mentally happy, especially when two people are together.

The sunlight outside the window is bright, shining through the open curtains onto the wooden floor not far away, bringing a little warmth between spring and summer.

The two of them chatted and laughed, and quickly finished a bottle of red wine by listening to the interesting things and anecdotes happening around them.

Lynn didn't ask much about Euphemia's research results, and Euphemia didn't ask much about Lynn's arrangements - although she was also very interested in the information and clues given by Rowena, on the one hand, now was not the right time, and on the other hand, she didn't intend to bother herself.

"Would you like to open another bottle?"

"Of course, I haven't had enough."

Fei, who was in high spirits after drinking, shook her empty wine glass, her cheeks slightly red, which made her look the cutest.

Lynn was also not vague. With a flip of his wrist, the old wine specially sent by Madame Maxime fell on the table. With a slight sound, the cork was pulled out, and the rich aroma of the wine spread in an instant, mixing with the aroma of the food. It was not pure, but carried a complex sense of life.

The ruby-like wine is poured into the glass and then taken to the mouth. From the mellow, full and slightly bitter taste to the fruity and oak aroma lingering on the tip of the tongue - mixed with a hint of smoky flavor.

This amount of wine is not a problem for the two of them who can drink a thousand cups without getting drunk, but it is enough to stimulate a little romance between lovers.

"You're drinking a little too fast...!"

As Lin En was speaking, his body suddenly stiffened.

He experienced a special touch, as if something was rubbing against his right calf. When he looked up again, the red wine in Euphemia's glass was almost empty.

With a slight sound, the plush slippers fell to the ground, followed by five delicate toes that could be felt through the fabric.

Euphemia had a standard Greek foot, meaning the second toe was slightly longer and the last three toes were arranged in a stepped pattern.

Studies have shown that women with this type of feet generally have slender figures, and this is indeed the case with Euphemia.

It has to be said that this posture is quite ambiguous. Even though their relationship is so close that it cannot go any further, Lin En still feels his throat tighten and start to feel a little dry.

"Gudu..."

He swallowed with some difficulty, then took a big gulp of wine, and then he came to his senses a little.

"You don't have any other plans today, do you?" Euphemia raised her lips jokingly. Taking advantage of the alcohol, she lifted her left foot slightly again, spreading and closing her five toes. "Of course, even if you do, you have to cancel it. This is a reward for your performance."

This was a rare time when she took the initiative, and no one could refuse.

"I think... there will be no arrangement."

The next moment, the curtains were closed, and all the light from the outside was blocked out.

No matter how attractive the magic is, it will eventually give way to human factors - not to mention that it is just information that cannot be fulfilled for the time being.

-----------------

When time began to flow again, the light outside the window had become dim.

"call……"

Lynn, lying on her back on the big bed, let out a long breath.

He turned his head and saw Euphemia lying beside him still sleeping soundly. Her face looked relaxed and her red lips looked even fuller.

As if she felt Lin En's gaze, her delicate eyelashes trembled slightly, and her beautiful brown eyes slowly opened.

The two of them shared the same pillow, looking at each other closely, and could even sense each other's breathing clearly.

"……what time is it?"

She asked vaguely, her eyes full of confusion and fatigue.

"If I'm not mistaken, it should be six o'clock." Lin En tucked the corner of the quilt considerately for her, covering up her stunning white skin, "Do you want to sleep a little longer? I'll go prepare dinner. Don't do research today."

"Woo..."
