Ch 846-850

Probably to prevent Ivan, Hermione, and Ron from coming out to find himself, Harriet walked in the opposite direction and quickly walked to the edge of the Quidditch pitch.

It was late at night and there was no one on the court, and the cold wind slowly calmed his excitement.

It's just that Harry still couldn't understand why Professor Dumbledore planned to let himself follow Snape to learn Occlumency, he knew how much the professor of potions class hated him.

Not to mention that Snape did a lot of things for Voldemort...

Harry couldn't help thinking that when he had dreamed of Voldemort recently, Snape always stayed beside him every time. They seemed to be looking for something... very urgent!

But he couldn't tell anyone this information, because Ivan, Hermione, and Sirius had repeatedly reminded him not to believe everything he saw in his dreams...

If he revealed what he had dreamed of, they would have been talking non-stop.

As for Professor Dumbledore not mentioning himself in his will, Harry had already looked away.

This is not something incomprehensible, after all, Ivan is much better than him, and he is the most likely person to defeat Voldemort in the future.

In contrast, what can I do for myself?

He just escaped from Voldemort's hands by luck.

Just as Harry was thinking about it, a familiar fairy music suddenly came from above. Harry looked up curiously. A golden red bird was falling on the treetop, staring straight at him... …

"Fox?!" Harry shouted in surprise.

The proud phoenix flew down from the treetops, and after a circle around him, flew towards the forbidden forest.

"Do you want me to follow you? Fox?" Harry subconsciously took a step forward and asked uncertainly.

The phoenix hovered in the low air and screamed, as if to confirm his conjecture.

After getting the confirmation, even though he had a lot of doubts in his mind, Harry did not hesitate to follow.

The road ahead became more and more skewed, and Harry felt that he had entered the depths of the Forbidden Forest, and the surrounding darkness was dark, and the sound of insects made him more uneasy.

Fortunately, Fox did not continue forward, and soon stopped in front of a huge banyan tree. Harry walked a few steps out of breath, under the dim flame of the phoenix, a silver-gray, liquid-like thing. Hanging on the branch of the banyan tree.

"This is... my invisibility cloak?!" Harry recognized it instantly, and muttered to himself in surprise.

The joy that was lost and regained made him too late to think about why this dress appeared here, Dang Even drew out his wand and shouted loudly.

"Torn apart!"

A slender beam of magic spell flashed in mid-air, interrupting the branches of the banyan tree, and the invisibility cloak hanging on the treetop suddenly slipped down.

Harry hurriedly took the dress, and only then did he discover that a square card was sticking to the surface of the invisibility cloak, and it was written in a handwriting familiar to him.

[I thought for a long time and didn't think of what should be left for you, so I could only find your invisibility cloak. I'm sorry that I kept it privately for a few months. I couldn't find it the first time I found it. Give it back to you...]

The end of the card was empty, without any signature, but Harry guessed from the Phoenix and the handwriting that brought him here, it must be Professor Dumbledore.

But why didn't the professor simply write this in the will and send the invisibility cloak along with the other relics?

Harry was very confused. He faintly realized that Professor Dumbledore might only want him to see this invisibility cloak, otherwise he would not put this thing in such a remote place and leave Fox alone in him. When, bring him here.

Harry's idea was quickly verified, because there was another sentence written on the back of Paper.

[Don't tell anyone about this, try to trust Severus if necessary...]

It was Snape again... Harry was somewhat depressed, and he couldn't help wondering if Professor Dumbledore believed him too much.

At the same time, Harry was keenly aware that another meaning hidden in the messages left by Professor Dumbledore was that someone he knew had turned to the Dark Lord. Only in this way could he explain Dumbledore. Why don't you want others to know that you have recovered your invisibility cloak.

But who could this man be besides Snape?

A figure flashed in Harry's mind, but he couldn't believe that any of them would choose to abandon everyone and throw themselves into the arms of the Dark Lord.

Harry didn't care much about Dumbledore's words on the card that he kept the invisibility cloak privately. He didn't use it some time ago anyway. On the contrary, he was very grateful for the invisibility cloak that Dumbledore could accidentally lose. Find it again.

This is not easy...

Seeing the darkening of the sky, Harry stuffed the invisibility cloak into his robe indiscriminately, and then put the card in his pocket~www.mtlnovel.com~ and prepared to follow the light of the castle in the distance to return...

The hovering Phoenix Fox flew slowly down from mid-air and landed directly on his shoulders.

"Is there anything else you want to tell me? Fox?" Harry turned his head, looking at the golden red phoenix and asked curiously.

There was a deep and deep joy in Fox's mouth, but Harry was confused-he could not understand Fox's bird language.

The latter probably realized this too, and simply didn't waste any effort on Harry's body. A flame was ignited on his body, and Harry was wrapped in it, so that one person and one bird disappeared out of thin air.

When Harry came back to his senses again, he had already appeared in the boys' dormitory.

For some reason, it looked empty here, Ivan and others were not there, and Harry looked around and didn't see Fox.

At this moment, Ron's voice suddenly came from the door, and Harry thought of Dumbledore's instructions on the card, and hurriedly stuffed the invisibility cloak hidden in his robe under the bed.

The next moment, the door of the bedroom was pushed in, and Ivan, Ron, and Neville walked in through the door together.

All three of them were surprised that Harry had already returned to the dormitory, and Ron took a step forward and complained. "Where did you go, Harry? We went to Hagrid to find you, and you were not there at all!"

"Sorry, Ron, I just want to be alone..." Harry replied apologetically, hesitating in his mind to tell him about his previous experience and let Ivan, Ron and Neville help him. Analyze who is Voldemort's undercover agent, but after thinking about it, he still couldn't speak.

"I understand, Harry, no one would want to learn magic from that old bat. I really don't know what Professor Dumbledore thinks." Ron patted Harry sympathetically on the shoulder and said comfortingly.

Ivan on the side stepped forward and interrupted the conversation between the two.

"By the way, Harry and Ron, the current situation in the magic world is very unstable. Voldemort may attack each of us at any time, so I recently developed a magic that allows us to communicate with each other and communicate information. Do you want to try it?"

"What magic?" Ron suddenly became interested and asked eagerly.

Harry was equally curious.

"It's a kind of imprint magic..." Ivan Dang even explained the various effects of the magic imprint.

As early as the beginning of the school year, he thought of engraving magic marks on Harry and others, lest Voldemort, who was mad, would pass his hatred to these friends.

Only worrying about being misunderstood, coupled with the fact that Dumbledore would still be alive, could provide protection for Harry and the others, it has been delayed until now.

"Carve a logo on the arm? Like the mark of the Dark Devil?!" Ron said subconsciously after listening to Ivan.

"This kind of imprinting magic itself has no right or wrong, it just depends on how we use it..." Ivan explained patiently.

But before he could finish speaking, Ron started to speak excitedly. "This is awesome!"

Ivan was stunned, and his gaze at Ron became a little weird. He realized that he didn't quite understand what these little ghosts were thinking...

Ron didn't notice Ivan's weird gaze, and continued excitedly. "I always felt that we should also set up a magic organization to fight against mysterious people together, just like the Order of the Phoenix!"

"Order of the Phoenix? What order of the Phoenix?" Seamus, who had just entered the door, looked at the people in the room with a confused look.

"Ah, that...we're just saying what name should be given to the newly formed secret organization..." Ron hesitated to explain, only then did he remember that the news about the Order of the Phoenix needs to be kept secret.

Seamus didn't doubt anything, his attention was quickly turned to this so-called secret organization, and when he learned that Ivan had developed a special magic mark, he also yelled for Ivan to get one for himself.

Ivan was a little bit dumbfounded. He hadn't expected that things would develop so smoothly, and all the rhetoric that he had originally prepared suddenly became useless.

But it's okay to spend less time. After Ivan explained how to use the mark to Harry, Ron, Seamus, and Neville, he drew out his wand and started casting the spell. In just a few minutes, it was gorgeous. The imprint of the sleeping dragon appeared on the wrists of Harry and the others.

"Cool!" Seamus touched the lifelike fire dragon pattern on his arm, shouted excitedly, and then cautiously asked as if he had thought of something.

"You said, what if we cheat on it?"

Ron and Harry were shocked by Seamus's bold idea, but when they thought about it, they unexpectedly discovered that this seemed to be a feasible move. Since they can communicate with each other without barriers through the magical imprint, wouldn't they also be able to use it? To deliver the answer?

"That's not good, Seamus?" the good boy Neville said weakly.

But Seamus didn't want to talk to him at all, and discussed their cheating plan with Ron enthusiastically.

"You'd better dispel this idea. I heard that this year's owls exam is very strict. The Ministry of Magic will send some Aurors to oversee it. Maybe there will be instruments to detect magic. If you are caught, you will definitely be expelled! "Ivan said very solemnly, but felt helpless in his heart.

He didn't expect that Seamer and others, after learning about the effectiveness of the magic seal to transmit information, the first reaction was to cheat with it...

Under Ivan's warning to drop out of school, Seamus and Ron had to regret giving up their cheating plan and instead talked about what to name their secret organization.

...

In a blink of an eye, February came. In the nearly one month since the beginning of school, the magical world seemed very calm. Many Voldemort who had been worried and afraid seemed to have disappeared, and there were no expected attacks on Hogwarts. Happened, which temporarily relieved the hearts of some parents.

The Daily Prophet attributed it to the Ministry of Magic's credit, because Pierce sent a large number of Aurors to search for Voldemort's whereabouts, causing the Dark Lord to be exhausted and unable to regenerate the incident.

The wizards who have experienced the last war all sneered at this statement. They all knew how powerful Voldemort was. The average Auror could not be Voldemort's opponent even in groups. In contrast, they were more willing to believe in the dark. The demon is hiding in the dark, planning a conspiracy to subvert the magic world...

However, the tense atmosphere before has eased a lot~www.mtlnovel.com~ After enjoying a period of peaceful life, the little wizards at Hogwarts temporarily put the danger brought by Voldemort behind them. Most of the attention was focused on the upcoming exam.

Every weekend, those fifth graders facing the owls exam and seventh grade graduates always crowd the school library. Under such an urgent learning atmosphere, even Harry and Ron don't like to learn very much. People also put off their playful thoughts, and honestly sat in the lounge with books in their hands and reviewed them over and over again.

Only Ivan is incompatible with the atmosphere here. At this time, he is holding a top with gems, carefully looking at it, tapping it with a magic wand from time to time, seeming to be exploring something.

"Ivan, don't you plan to review it? The owls exam is about to be taken in more than a month, and you told me before that you plan to take this year's ultimate test, strive to pass all subjects, and apply for graduation in advance, right? "Hermione put down the book and couldn't help but reminded.

"I've reviewed it before, and besides, it's just some ordinary exams, and I'll confess it..." Ivan almost missed his words, and hurriedly put down the crown, and said to remedy. "Ahem, I mean you can live with your eyes closed..."

Harry and Ron, who were carrying the book, rolled their eyes, wanting to complain, can they not make these exams so easy, so that they don't have any motivation to review...

The o.w.ls (general wizard test) is a very important and difficult sub-test, not to mention the n.e.w.t. (ultimate wizard test). The level of results directly determines whether they can find a good job in the future.

On the side Hermione was also choked by Ivan's words, but was unable to refute. Professor McGonagall once said that with Ivan's magic level, he could have graduated from Hogwarts a long time ago, and the owls exam may be really difficult. Can't hold him.

But this also means that Ivan will leave Hogwarts next year. Thinking of this, Hermione's mood has become a little frustrated. Although her grades are also very good, she is not sure that she can pass the higher grades with excellent results. newt exam.

Naturally, Ivan saw this, and he said amusedly to comfort him. "I'm not a student, but it doesn't mean that I won't be at Hogwarts in the future..."

"Are you planning to come back to teach after graduation?" Hermione immediately guessed Ivan's thoughts, then thought about the vacant position, and said tentatively. "Defense against the Dark Arts class?!"

"No, no, no! I can't teach this course for anything!" Ivan was taken aback, and hurriedly interrupted.

He hasn't lived enough yet!

In the past five years, Ivan has witnessed the horror of Voldemort's curse. Those who have served as a Defence Against the Dark Arts class professor will always be unlucky for various reasons. So far, they have been able to leave their job in a peaceful situation. , Lupin is the only one.

But even Lupin failed to attend a full year of class, and at the end of the semester he chose to voluntarily resign due to some reasons.

Although Ivan has outstanding strength, he will not make fun of his personal safety!

Hermione spit out her tongue, apparently also thinking of the curse of Defence Against the Dark Arts class from Ivan's startled reaction.

However, apart from the vacancy of the professor for this course, it seems that there is no other course to choose from. It is impossible for Ivan to be the principal, right?

"I heard that next year the Ministry of Magic wants to increase your ability to face risks during this special period, so next year a new course will be added to train your fighting skills." Ivan said half-truth.

"Train us like a duel class?" Harry and Ron asked with enthusiasm and interest.

Normally, when they hear that the Ministry of Magic will add a course in the coming year, they will groan and complain, but if this course allows them to take up their wands and fight, it becomes much more interesting.

"Almost..." Ivan slapped his mouth. In fact, he hadn't figured out how to teach.

"But, will the Ministry of Magic approve you to be a professor?" Hermione said hesitantly. Ivan will only be sixteen years old next year, and he will not even be an adult. The Ministry of Magic is unlikely to let an underage wizard be a professor. of.

"Don't think the Ministry of Magic is so pedantic, believe me, the new Acting Minister Pierce is a very open-minded person!" Ivan promised.

Although he had not had time to discuss this matter with Pierce, he believed that the Ministry of Magic would not reject this proposal.

However, Hogwarts does not need to think too much, because the position of the principal is still vacant, and the twelve school directors who can influence the decision are all their own.

The only thing that needs to be considered is the opinions of parents.

But Ivan already has a way to deal with this, that is, let the Prophet's Daily publicize his genius name. It is best to make everyone aware of his leapfrog graduation, and then re-exhibit his previous great achievements. Show.

With this genius name, the Ministry of Magic specially hired him to become a professor at Hogwarts to teach a new course that is temporarily not included in the exam, and there will be no more opposition.

In fact, if possible, Ivan even thought about whether he should simply become the new headmaster of Hogwarts. After all, there are some system tasks that can be easily completed with the help of the headmaster's identity.

However, after careful consideration, Ivan dismissed the idea.

The 16-year-old Hogwarts principal is too ridiculous, and he has no experience in managing schools, so Ivan can only choose to start as a professor, and be promoted to the position of principal after a year or two.

To change the status quo of Hogwarts education has to be done step by step.

Harry, Ron, and Hermione were dubious. They all felt that the Ministry of Magic would probably not agree to let Ivan, a minor wizard, be a professor.

Ivan shrugged and did not continue to explain, but instead looked at Harry and asked. "Did you decide whether you want to learn Occlumency with Professor Snape these days? Harry?"

"I'll talk about it later." Harry replied with a headache. Recently, he has been busy reviewing every day and it is enough to make his heart tired. Harry really does not want to face Snape's big face while reviewing. , That would definitely make him crazy.

"You should be more concerned about this, Harry! Have you forgotten? The mysterious man sent a lot of wrong information to Professor Dumbledore through your dreams during the last school year. Maybe, the mysterious man. Going through your memory now..." Hermione solemnly told Harry about the necessity of following Snape to learn Occlumency.

The latter couldn't bear Hermione's babbling, and finally had to agree to ask Snape when he was free on Friday~www.mtlnovel.com~ to see if he would like to teach himself.

Harry thought optimistically, and Snape would definitely reject his proposal without hesitation...

Just when Harry was having a headache for this, Ron leaned in front of Ivan, curiously watched Ivan fiddle with the crown in his hand, and asked. "What is this? A crown?"

"This is Ravenclaw's crown. It was previously made into a powerful black magic item by a mysterious man. It was the result of Lockhart's attack on students three years ago..." Ivan simply got himself The story of the crown was said again.

Hearing about the mysterious man, Ron suddenly felt his scalp numb, but after knowing that Ivan had repaired the damaged crown, he immediately became interested. He had also heard about the rumors of the Ravenclaw crown. It is said that the crown brings wisdom to people.

"Can I try it with me?" Ron asked.

"Of course." Ivan handed the crown indifferently.

Ron took it without expectation, buckled the crown on his head, then opened the book and read it, wanting to try the effect.

However, after reading the book carefully for a few minutes, Ron took the crown down with great disappointment, because he found that this thing could not improve his memory, nor could it make him incredibly smart all of a sudden...

Ivan shook his head and took the crown back. He was not surprised by Ron's reaction, because he had done various experiments before, but no matter what method was used, it seemed to be just a gorgeous decoration.

However, the systematic evaluation clearly told him that Ravenclaw's crown is a powerful magic item that can increase people's wisdom...

Maybe Helena Ravenclaw will know something...

Ivan's heart moved and thought of the ghost lady who hadn't seen him for a long time. He was busy dealing with the Ministry of Magic before and almost forgot the other party. It seemed necessary to meet Helena again.

...

In the middle of the night, in the tower of Ravenclaw, an owl quietly got in from the open window, and after landing, it changed into a human form again.

Ivan looked around, and soon found the ghost lady in front of the white marble bust of Rowena Ravenclaw.

Helena obviously also noticed the arrival of Ivan, but she pretended not to see it, and moved her body towards the depths of the corridor.

Ivan frowned and felt a little strange, but he still followed in stride and greeted him.

"Good evening, Ms. Helena!"

The erratic female ghost reluctantly stopped her steps, turned her head, cast a weary look at Ivan, and said casually. "Good evening, Hals, it's been almost a year since we met last time. I didn't expect you to come to me... Is there anything else you haven't figured out?"

Ivan touched his nose. How could this inexplicably have a sense of sight of a saddler seeing his ex-wife.

Fortunately, from Helena's few words, Ivan also found the reason for the other's cold attitude, and a little apologetic suddenly appeared on his face.

"I'm sorry, Ms. Helena, too many things have happened at Hogwarts during this time, which has affected my energy... and I want to surprise you too!" The white gold crown studded with gorgeous sapphires was taken out.

Helena's gaze was instantly attracted, she slowly floated in front of Ivan, looking at the crown in Ivan's hand intoxicated, her eyes full of nostalgia and sadness, and finally she gently extended her hand as if she wanted I want to lift up the crown, but it is a pity that my arm passed directly through it.

At this time, Helena suddenly remembered that she was a ghost, unable to touch things in reality.

Helena sighed low, but she also keenly noticed that this crown didn't seem to be as badly damaged as Ivan said before.

"Have you fixed it?" Helena asked in a slightly surprised voice.

"Yes, this is the reason why I waited so long to come to you..." Ivan nodded, and then talked freely and told Helena that he had made various attempts to repair the crown. It failed, and finally found a way to fix it from Ravenclaw's laboratory...

"I accidentally broke it three years ago, so I always wanted to repair the crown before returning it to you, but I didn't expect it to be so long." Ivan spread his hands and added helplessly.

"It turned out to be so, I don't know... I thought..." Helena said glutinously, with a look of embarrassment on her face.

"I thought I was the same as Tom Riddle? I left you aside?" Ivan asked with a smile.

"It seems that I misunderstood you..." Helena's cold face flushed slightly.

After learning that Ivan had been trying to repair her mother's crown for nearly a year and fulfilled her wish, the anger and resentment accumulated in Helena's heart immediately disappeared.

She did not doubt that Ivan's words were true or false, because during this year, she had also asked the students of Ravenclaw to learn about the past three years ago, which is no different from what Ivan said. .

In addition, Ivan had asked her about alchemy before, so Helena knew very well that the young wizard in front of her had extraordinary attainments in alchemy, and it was not impossible to repair her mother's crown. thing.

"Thank you anyway, but I have lost one of my wishes, Hals." Helena said gratefully.

"Since I promised that you will bring it here, I have to do it. Besides, you helped me before and told me many secrets of this castle, didn't you?" Ivan raised his brows. Replied with a word.

Helena smiled lightly, her erratic figure shining brightly in the moonlight.

"You should smile more, it's much better than your usual cold look." Ivan said jokingly.

Helena was stunned for a moment, the smile on her face narrowed a little, and she said slightly angrily. "You should keep these words to the little girls who are still alive..."

Ivan shrugged noncommittal, and when Helena was in a good mood, he asked about business. "By the way, Helena, I heard that the golden diadem left by your mother can increase people's wisdom. Is this true?"

"Of course it is true. I stole it to become smarter than my mother." Helena sighed.

"Then, did you succeed?" Ivan did not rush to ask how the Ravenclaw crown was used, but asked curiously.

To be honest, it is hard for him to imagine that relying on a magic item can make a person incredibly smart...

"I succeeded, but maybe I also failed..." Helena slowly floated to the bust of Ravenclaw, staring at it ~www.mtlnovel.com~ after a long time before suddenly speaking. "Have you been to the laboratory in the responsive room?"

Ivan nodded, but he didn't understand why Ms. Ghost mentioned this suddenly.

Helena ignored Ivan's confusion, but said to herself.

"My mother, Roina, is a very smart witch, not...it should be said that she was the smartest person in the magic world at the time."

"But it is precisely because she is so intelligent that she is fascinated by the magic of magic, and wants to explore the mystery of magic... and even unsatisfied to make a golden crown that can make people smarter..."

Helena faintly talked about the past. As the daughter of Rowena Ravenclaw, she was full of expectations since she was born.

It's a pity that compared to the mother of Tianzong Wizard, her talent is only the level of an ordinary genius, no matter how hard she tries, she can't match her mother's in case.

Probably she was disappointed with her performance. After she became a little sensible, Roina devoted most of her energy to the study of magic, and the time she spent with her became less and less.

This made the young Helena feel resentful, and she also envied her mother's incomparable wisdom, no matter where she went, she could always get praise from others easily.

"At the time, I was stubborn that if I could become smarter and more prestigious than my mother, then she would probably be willing to look at me more..." Helena said in a low voice.

"So you stole the crown?" Ivan asked.

Helena nodded gently, then turned to look at the golden crown in Ivan's hand, and said with emotion. "When I wore this crown, I knew I was wrong. It was very wrong, but I don't want to be soft to my mother. I want to prove to her that what she can do, I can do the same..."

V
