Hogwarts: I inherited my legacy

Chapter 796 Raven: I really can’t refuse

This wave of collective death by Helbo was probably a carefully laid trap. Whether they chose to search for activated Horcruxes with all their strength or carefully check the unactivated Horcruxes, it would take a lot of precious time. I'm afraid it would take at least ten days and a half months to complete the comprehensive cleanup.

But the problem is that if they really wasted their time on these trivial matters, Helbo might have already successfully resurrected and been reborn again.

King Arthur looked at Merlin and Raven in astonishment, his eyes wide open. He really couldn't imagine that a mere legendary wizard could cause Baicairen and Merlin, two powerful men who were ranked among the best in the underworld, so much trouble.

He would rather believe that the guy's attack today was his last trump card.

King Arthur asked blankly, "No way? Haven't you killed his nine legendary wizard-level Horcruxes? Such a powerful fighting force should be considered his trump card, right? Even in the history of magic, there are not many times when multiple legendary wizards coexist in the world?"

However, Merlin shook his head. "Who knows? Maybe this is also a trick to confuse the enemy. That old guy is very cunning."

He is someone who has faced Herbo directly and has a deep understanding of this guy. But then again, if Herbo was not so difficult to deal with, why would Gaia have been thinking about him for so long?

But Merlin is Merlin after all, the Idea King of Camelot.

Even when faced with such a difficult situation, he could find his own way out. He smiled, his eyes sparkling with wisdom, "I have an idea, maybe we can give it a try."

Merlin gestured with his fingers and continued, "Why don't you ask Gaia directly? You know, the matter of Helbo may be hidden from us, but it is impossible to hide it from this person."

Hearing this suggestion, Raven frowned and fell into deep thought.

After a moment, he said, "But, judging from the current situation, Gaia obviously cannot attack Helbo directly for some reason, and cannot even reveal relevant information to us, right?"

Merlin nodded slightly, then shook his head gently, "Indeed, when Gaia chose me to deal with Helpo, her attitude was exactly the same as it is now. However, for her, this seems more like a constraint than an absolute prohibition. She is likely to use some unconstrained way to tell you where the problem lies."

Merlin took a sip of beer, a smile on his face, and then added, "How do you think I managed to lock that guy up in the first place? Gaia hinted at some weaknesses in Helbo's character. I used this as a breakthrough point and set a trap specifically for Helbo."

Hearing Merlin's words, Raven frowned thoughtfully, as if he understood something.

Yes, no one knows Helbo better than Gaia, and no one wants to destroy Helbo more than Gaia.

Raven had actually experienced firsthand the means that Gaia had prepared in advance and her hints.

Remember that adventure to Azkaban?

That was Gaia's long-planned fatal blow aimed at decomposing Helpo's body in the Limbo.

Although there was no direct communication between her and Raven, she had already quietly handed the deadly knife to Raven.

"I see," Raven nodded, a glimmer of understanding flashing in his eyes, "Perhaps the clue to finding Helbo's back-up plan is actually in my hands."

"Very likely," Merlin agreed.

The three of them chatted like this, and before long, the Phoenix Fawkes brought Dumbledore the latest message.

Putting away the note in his hand, Dumbledore said with a smile,

"Minerva told me that under the command of Ms. Hufflepuff, the house-elves have prepared a brand new dinner to comfort the children after the shock they just received. I sincerely invite you two to attend the Samhain dinner at Hogwarts."

Merlin and King Arthur looked at each other and agreed happily.

(The dinner party will be included in the extra chapter~)

In the early morning, the warm sunshine shines on the Hogwarts castle. The campus, which should have been full of vitality and energy, is filled with a heavy atmosphere.

The students walked towards the classroom listlessly, with dark circles under their eyes.

The reason for the heavy dark circles under their eyes was that what happened last night was so shocking that these young wizards could not sleep peacefully.

From the beginning of Voldemort's attack, to Dumbledore's sudden return, and finally the appearance of six mysterious guests, the young wizards talked about it with great relish and were excited, but this was not enough to keep them tossing and turning.

However, what really kept them awake at night was Dumbledore's retirement announcement last night and the choice of headmaster to replace him next school year...

In short, although this decision has been unanimously approved by the four founders of the college, King Arthur, Merlin and other important figures, it is a foregone conclusion that one of them will become the principal.

But for the little wizards, the days ahead will be difficult!

But what does this have to do with Raven?

Inside the manor of Dawn Ranch, he was receiving Gaia who had just gotten off work.

At this time, Gaia used the image of Neopher Fitzgerald, which made her look gentler.

When Raven was about to speak, Gaia said first, "Let's not talk about Helpo." Her tone was firm and decisive, not giving Raven any chance to refute.

Seeing Riven's constipated expression, Gaia's mouth corners slightly raised, revealing a mischievous smile.

However, for Raven's physical and mental health, she continued to add, "Because I know you want to target him, I can't tell you some secrets about him, but we can talk about the agreement between us. Now is the time."

Gaia's words were like a bomb, instantly igniting Raven's emotions.

He still remembered the conditions Gaia had promised him—an offer that he could not refuse.

In order to keep the surprise, Raven had not urged Gaia to show the chip, but deep down he was full of curiosity and anticipation. He couldn't help but wonder what it was that he couldn't refuse.

Could it be... Thinking of this, Raven's heartbeat involuntarily quickened, as if he could hear the sound of his own heartbeat.

Seeing Raven's expectant expression, Gaia knew that his bargaining chip was indeed a treasure that Raven wanted.

She nodded, as if agreeing with Raven's guess.

"Yes, I can take you back, but..."

"But what!?" Raven urged anxiously.

Yes, go home! The ancient demon king never gave up on this point. Why did he give up everything that was within his reach in this world a hundred years ago and head to the vaster underworld? Wasn't it because he wanted to go home, and the magic in this world was not enough for him to do so! ?

And hasn't he been devoting himself to researching the way home during the more than one hundred years in the underworld?

As for the possibility of drilling a hole in the world or something... isn't this paused?

A hundred years only made Raven less impatient, but it never stopped him from thinking about going home. Now Raven was just enjoying himself while moving forward.

And now that Gaia actually took the initiative to mention this matter, how could Riven not be excited?

"But what? Tell me, oh my god, I'm so anxious!"

Gaia looked at Raven helplessly, unable to bear his urging, and said,

"But the energy is not enough. You are from Earth, and I am Earth. I can use my other-world self as a location to send you there. If one time doesn't work, I can do it a hundred times. If one hundred times doesn't work, I can do it a thousand times. Given your connection with your original world, you don't actually need that many times. But that's the problem. The energy is not enough. In other words, the magic power is not enough. With my current reserves, I can only perform three or four such cross-world teleportations."

"Then how can I replenish your magic power? Everything on this planet belongs to you, unless I mine it for you from outer space? How about building a Dyson sphere for you? Or getting you the helium-3 from the moon first?"

Raven's mind worked very quickly, and he had already taken all the energy within the solar system into consideration.

"There's no need to go through so much trouble. In fact, you're already on this path," Gaia said.

This sentence calmed Raven's anxious mood a little, but he still asked with some doubt, "Oh? What is it?"

"Remember what the foundation of modern magic is?" Gaia asked.

"Emotions," Raven asserted, then he suddenly realized something and said in surprise, "Wait! You mean..."

Raven suddenly had a clear idea, because this idea was the magic he mastered.

"Yes, it is Isidora's emotional magic," Gaia agreed. "This magic is the key to transforming the emotional magic of modern magic into ancient magic. Just like the word invented by Muggles, the former is a renewable resource and the latter is a non-renewable resource. This magic can transform renewable magic into non-renewable ancient magic. Aren't you very skilled in using it?"

Gaia looked around and said meaningfully,

That's really skillful. Riven's base uses the fairies' [fear] as energy. I didn't expect that Gaia also needs this kind of power.

"Do we need to raise fairies? That's a bit difficult. The fertility of longevity species is a big problem."

Raven frowned, and suddenly he seemed to have thought of something, looking at Gaia with a thoughtful look, "Or, use some magical creatures with a short reproduction cycle? For example, wizards?"

Raven thought of his own seeding plan. In Britain alone, the wizarding population increases by nearly 10,000 every year, and this number will only increase in the short term, not decrease.
