Ancient wizards return to Hogwarts.

"So what do you want to say?" Rowena had a bad feeling in her heart.

"This stair magic is quite fancy. In my opinion, it is not practical at all except for being a nuisance!" Aries came to a conclusion based on his own analysis.

Rowena suddenly stopped talking.

Aries followed the stairs to a landing.

"Senior, where are we going next?"

Rowena didn't reply.

"Ouch!" Aries felt as if a needle had pricked the left back of his head, causing a sharp pain.

Now she knew where to go.

“Senior, please give directions in the normal way. This method is too painful.” Aries said with a bitter face.

Rowena didn't want to pay attention to her, and only reminded her in her own way when she needed to turn. At the same time, she was quietly looking at the Hogwarts Castle a thousand years later.

Well, it is well maintained. The walls of the castle have survived thousands of years of wind and rain, and the interior has been fully upgraded. Except for some dirty armor paintings, the overall condition is very decent.

Looking at the castle that could definitely be called luxurious, Rowena's good mood returned.

Following her guidance, Aries turned a few corners and arrived outside the Defense Against the Dark Arts professor's office.

"Hey, senior, there seems to be someone in here..." Aries looked at the closed door worriedly, feeling uneasy.

Aries could tell at a glance that there was someone in the office, not because of her excellent perception, but because the noise Helga made inside was a bit loud, crackling, and anyone with good hearing would know that there was someone inside.

As for why Helga still stayed in the castle to "work overtime" during the summer vacation, it was not because of the surge in orders for dolls. Although Helga did receive a lot of orders from all over the world after the World Cup, Helga postponed all of them. Now her top priority is to do maintenance for the Ministry of Magic's automatic combat dolls.

In the battle with Voldemort, although Rice was the main force, puppets from the Ministry of Magic also got involved. Many of the puppets suffered more or less damage, and one puppet was completely burned.

As Helga had promised a lifetime warranty, it was natural for her to fulfill the contract at this moment.

"It's not a big problem, you just need to lend me your tongue." Rowena made a direct request to Aries.

"Oh, okay." Aries was stunned for a moment, then smoothly handed over control of his body. However, after Rowena took the lead, Aries felt his eyes go dark and fell into sleep.

Rowena respected Aries' choice and didn't let her know all the secrets.

After taking over the body, Rowena knocked on the door of Helga's office.

"Who?" Helga's confused voice came from behind the door, and the next moment the door opened.

Helga was sitting behind her office, with a doll on the table and doll parts scattered all over the floor. In the corner of the office, more than a dozen dolls were piled together, giving people a gloomy feeling.

"You are... huh? Who are you?" Helga looked at Aries' face and felt a little confused at first, and then alarm bells immediately rang in her heart.

Helga could see that the person in front of her was not in a good condition, as if he was possessed by some dirty thing.

"It's me." Rowena said calmly with an Aries face.

Although she still looked like an Aries at this moment, she exuded an extraordinary temperament from head to toe, and even her facial features had undergone subtle changes, becoming somewhat similar to Rowena's original appearance.

'What a familiar feeling...' Helga was surprised, and then suddenly thought of something.

"You, could it be that you are--" She stood up hesitantly. A bold guess had already come to her lips, but she did not dare to draw a conclusion easily due to the lack of conclusive evidence.

A light breeze blew through Helga's hair, and it seemed as if thousands of whispers rang in her ears, but when she really paid attention to the message brought by the wind, these voices disappeared into thin air.

"You look a little unwell lately. Is the pressure from school work so great?" Rowena continued.

Helga:…

Not only was there pressure from school work, but there was also pressure from orders for dolls! The thing he regretted most was making an automatic doll and promoting it and selling it like crazy.

But these are nothing compared to what is happening right now. What is happening now is the top priority.

"Royna, why are you running? I mean, you finally found a way to get out of the seal!" Helga forced a smile.

"Thanks to Salazar, he gave me a very good body." Rowena moved her joints, making a few crisp sounds. "It fits me very well."

Helga:…

"So it was the old viper's doing." The smile on her face didn't change at all, but her voice sounded like it was squeezed out from between her teeth.

Rowena coming out of the dungeon seal, if it happens, then we have to let it happen. We can't just put Ravenclaw back in, right? Although putting her back in would definitely save my future self a lot of trouble.

This is also the reason why Helga has always maintained strict neutrality, neither providing help nor obstructing.

But who would have thought that the old viper would actually lend a helping hand first, which was beyond Helga's expectations: Why did Salazar do this?

"I was surprised too, but this isn't the first time Salazar has brought me experimental materials." Rowena's voice rang in Helga's ears, and Hufflepuff couldn't help but have a somewhat absurd thought in his mind: Could it be that the old Viper did this because he felt guilty about Rowena and was trying to compensate her? This didn't seem to fit the old Viper's style, but considering that he had a much brighter personality after shedding his skin and being reborn, it was not impossible.

"Although I have heard about it from you, I am still surprised by the current appearance of Hogwarts. The descendants have run it very well." Rowena took a few steps forward and came to Helga's desk.

She picked up a doll part and looked Helga in the eye and asked, "Can an old antique like me, fished out from the bottom of the river, still find a place to shine on this little boat?"

Helga understood that Rowena wanted to continue looking for a job at Hogwarts.

Of course she was welcome, but it seemed that there were no vacancies recently. But it didn't matter, because even if there were no vacancies, they had to be created. Helga didn't dare to let someone like Rowena Ravenclaw sit idle.

'How about persuading a certain professor to resign?'

Persuade Professor Flitwick of Ravenclaw College to resign, and then give the position of Vice-Principal to Rowena, leaving her trapped in all the clutter and unable to take care of other things!

Helga even had such an idea.

This is obviously unrealistic.
