Wind and Eagle Wings at Hogwarts

Chapter 361 361. Is Avalon Real?

"Fate chose you, and you can only face it."

Dumbledore's blue eyes looked directly at Scott, and his voice was gentle and encouraging.

"Brave, although people are used to associate this word with Gryffindor, but I think bravery exists in everyone's heart."

Scott's heart gradually calmed down.

The thing has already happened, and there is no way to avoid it, and there is no other way except to face it directly.

"The most important thing is not to let anything affect your heart, and not to make choices against your will." Dumbledore continued, "It is not our abilities that determine our lives, but our choices."

Scott laughed, "You're right, Professor. I won't flinch from the illusory prophecy now, and I won't let this matter affect the way I want to go."

He has to admit that although chicken soup for the soul seems useless, people do need some delicious chicken soup for the soul sometimes.

Hearing Scott's answer, Dumbledore nodded in relief, and he became as cheerful as usual again.

"Of course, you should also remember that you are not alone." He continued, "You have family, friends, and us old guys. I believe that no one will refuse to help you."

At this time, Professor McGonagall on the side also said; "I said, Mr. Trollope, no matter what happens to you, you can ask your professors for help."

Professor Flitwick simply walked up to Scott and looked up at him.

"Oh, Scott, I believe in you. You are one of the best students ever in Ravenclaw House, and I believe you can break through all difficulties. Of course, don't forget that the entire Ravenclaw House is yours backing."

After he finished speaking with some excitement, he reached out and patted Scott's arm comfortingly.

"Thank you." Scott lowered his eyelids with a smile on his face, "Professor Flitwick, Professor McGonagall, Professor Dumbledore."

At this moment, his heart was at peace, and the fear and cowardice that arose after hearing the prophecy had been swept away.

Scott didn't try to control it, but when he decided to face it, those useless emotions simply disappeared.

"I have one more suggestion."

Dumbledore spoke again, and he said: "You can look for clues and interpret the true meaning of the prophecy, and we will all help with this. But please remember, don't force it."

When he said "We will all help", both Professor Flitwick and Professor McGonagall nodded to Scott.

Dumbledore added: "What is certain is that in the days to come, everything mentioned in the prophecy will appear in front of you, perhaps in an inadvertent or sudden way."

Having said that, his tone was full of encouragement again, "And what you have to do is to make yourself strong enough to face those difficulties."

"Yes." Scott responded, agreeing with his words very much.

Although it is true that the professors will not refuse to help him and protect him, he cannot hope for it.

No one can protect him all the time, only when he is strong can he not be afraid of any difficulties.

Dumbledore smiled at him again, his long silver beard shook slightly, "If it was another student, I would suggest that he accept our strict protection. But if it is you, I believe you, Scott, Because you are a student who is called a genius by everyone."

Faced with such a compliment, Scott could only nod slightly.

Compared with the old principal in front of him, although he doesn't think he is a rare genius, he also has some pride and self-confidence, and he doesn't feel that he will not be able to reach the height of the old principal in the future.

"Go." Professor Flitwick said to Scott, "Maybe you should forget about this for a while and go have a good rest. By the way, remember to come to my office after dinner tomorrow."

Scott responded again.

Every Tuesday evening he was tutored by Professor Flitwick, a habit that had not changed for a long time.

Judging from Professor Flitwick's expression, the professor's guidance to him should be strengthened next.

Of course, Scott will not reject this kind of small stove.

Professor McGonagall also said: "It seems that your progress in Transfiguration is going to be further accelerated, Mr. Trollope. You have such a talent, which is also your advantage. I think you can definitely come in the summer vacation. Learned Animagus before."

Scott also agreed.

"Just do what you can," Dumbledore said with a smile.

Scott bid farewell to the three professors, put away his [Magic Mirror], and left the classroom.

The three professors did not leave for the time being, presumably they will have a discussion on this matter.

Scott glanced back at the door of the Transfiguration Club, and left in a hurry.

He deftly walked through the winding corridors and moving stairs, with a clear goal of climbing up to the eighth floor and entering Helena's study.

For Scott, his biggest backer is Ravenclaw, who has become a mentor.

Though it is only a portrait of Ravenclaw that can help him today, it is the portrait of a founder of the house famous for her wisdom. She has an unusually wide knowledge. clearer interpretation.

The girl Helena in the painting was a little surprised by Scott's arrival at this time, but at his earnest request, she quickly opened the inner door for him.

After seeing the portrait of Ravenclaw, Scott only briefly explained a few words, and then let Ravenclaw and Helena in the portrait see Trelawney's prophecy through the [Magic Mirror] again.

"This is indeed a real prophecy," said Ravenclaw in the painting.

After watching the entire "video", she frowned very rarely.

"Mother?"

Helena snuggled up to her side, looking a bit disturbed, she seemed taken aback by Trelawney's performance in the "video".

Ravenclaw patted Helena's hand lightly.

She looked at Scott and asked softly, "Are you sure you are the prophesied non-existent?"

Scott nodded.

"I see." Ravenclaw murmured.

Like Dumbledore, she didn't delve into why Scott thought he was [the one who didn't exist].

"The great man?" She repeated the title, "If I'm not mistaken, this should refer to Salazar."

Scott looked at him questioningly.

Ravenclaw in the painting smiled slightly, "People call us the four founders of Hogwarts the Big Four (The great four), and he is the only one who has a relationship with Medea (The great one) .”

Scott nodded, and it makes sense to think so.

But he still asked, "Is this sure? There are still some wizards who can be called great people, such as Merlin who is often talked about by wizards."

"But Merlin will not claim the Eternal King's legacy," said Ravenclaw.

Scott asked, "Is the Eternal King Merlin's best friend, King Arthur?"

Ravenclaw said: "Prophecy is magical. In England, who else would the title of the Eternal King refer to except King Arthur?"

Scott felt a little unbelievable, "The legacy of the Eternal King? It is said that the dying King Arthur was carried back to Avalon by several mysterious fairies. Could it be that Avalon...the legendary Utopia really exists? ?"

Ravenclaw shook her head, saying that she didn't know whether the legendary Avalon really existed.

"I'm sure that Merlin and King Arthur are real," she said to Scott. "As for Avalon, which is the sacred place of Celtic mythology and the central belief of the ancient druid religion, maybe you can Ask the druids who still exist today."

Avalon...

Scott frowned.

As a legend that has been passed down from ancient times to the present in Britain, he certainly cannot judge whether it is real or not.

But the prophecy involved Salazar Slytherin, and even the legendary King Arthur, and Scott felt that things became more confusing.

It seems that he still has to find a way to contact Savannah.

Today, Savannah has become a druid priest, and the trip to [Oak Tree Sea] during the Christmas holiday also made Scott understand that the inheritance of druids is not simple, maybe Savannah will know something.

and……

"What are Clairvoyance and Scroll of History?"

"Sorry, I haven't heard of it either," said Ravenclaw in the painting.

Helena couldn't help but said: "This sounds too complicated, there must be a big secret hidden in it."

Neither Scott nor Ravenclaw responded to her obvious claims.

"It seems that after Salazar left Hogwarts, there is still a connection with Medea." Ravenclaw said with a sigh, "Maybe everything Medea did was controlled by him." , including the oath she signed with me back then."

"Mother?"

In the painting, Helena looks at Ravenclaw in surprise.

"Is what you say true?" she asked, "but how could Medea have deceived you?"

Ravenclaw patted her hand again, and said gently; "Sometimes I'm just an ordinary mother."

Helena bowed her head in shame.

"Although I can say it wasn't me," she murmured softly, "but it was Helena who stole the crown and made my mother seriously ill."

Ravenclaw looked at her lovingly, and reached out to stroke her long, silky hair.

"Do you know what to do, Scott." Ravenclaw looked at Scott who was standing outside the picture.

Scott said with a smile: "In addition to being mentally prepared and strengthening your own strength, it seems that there is no other better way."

Ravenclaw nodded slightly, agreeing with his statement.

"There's no need to panic about it," she said. "You just have to do what you have to do."

Scott nodded again.

Ravenclaw added: "Prophecy only reveals a destiny, don't let it become your shackles. If you are strong enough and wise enough, it is possible to break it."

　There are two updates today, 3000 each, and there will be another update later.
