The Wind and the Eagle Wings at Hogwarts

Scott now has no way to deal with Medea who wants to use him, not to mention Salazar Slytherin behind her.

In order to deal with Medea, the only thing he did was to secretly let Barty Crouch Jr., a diehard of Voldemort, get free in advance, causing Voldemort to take back some of his power in advance.

But this also indirectly changed more of the established fate, making the current situation in the magic world even more complicated.

It can be said that the revelation of the prophecy made Scott feel huge pressure for the first time and tasted a strong sense of frustration.

In the past, he had always been confident in himself, believing that as long as he followed the plan, he would eventually achieve his goal and become a powerful and freest wizard.

Even the sudden appearance of Medea did not make him too worried about his future.

But the revelation of the prophecy completely changed his situation, and the time he had to grow up became embarrassing.

Now he can't cope with Professor Flitwick's duel training, let alone face the legendary Salazar Slytherin?

Facing the threat of the prophecy, it is impossible to say that Scott has no anxiety.

He just tried to get rid of those useless emotions and not let them affect him.

But emotions are not something that can be perfectly controlled, and occasionally they will affect his mood.

Scott reached out and pushed open a window, letting the cool night breeze pour in from the window.

He emptied his mind and stood in the wind for a long time.

"Scott."

Until he heard someone calling his name.

He turned around and saw Luna in her nightgown jumping down the stairs behind the Ravenclaw statue.

"Luna?" Scott was a little surprised, "You're still awake so late?"

"I just fell asleep and woke up again." Luna ran to his side in slippers and looked up at him, "I wanted to go to your dormitory to find you, did you just come back from outside?"

"Looking for me?" Scott looked at her puzzled.

So late?

"I wanted to wait for you here, but then I was too sleepy." Luna took out a letter from the pocket of her nightgown, "This is the letter that Savannah asked me to give you. I received it after dinner."

"Thank you." Scott reached out to take the letter.

Luna walked to the table nearby, took off the wand behind her ear, and lit the candle on the table.

"I think you need light?" she said.

"Thank you."

Scott walked to the table and sat down, opened the envelope in his hand, took out the letter and unfolded it to read.

[Scott, are you okay?

I have been worried about you.

I have been looking for information based on the prophecy. Now, I finally have some results, so I want to tell you what I know as soon as possible.

Salazar Slytherin, he has been here and dealt with our Doherty family.

This is the news I got from my grandfather, and it is also the news he has been hiding alone.

In the Doherty family, only one person in each generation can know the humiliating history hidden in the past. ]

Scott was already curious when he saw this.

[The following is what my grandfather told me.

More than a thousand years ago, when the fairy Morgan took back King Arthur's body, she closed the passage between Avalon and the world.

As Morgan's servant, my ancestor, the first Doherty, was ordered to stay in the world to guard the passage of Avalon.

After hundreds of years of reproduction, the Doherty family became a prosperous family.

The ancestors transformed the swamp outside the passage into the Sea of ​​Oaks. They spent a lot of effort to cultivate a sacred tree and used the sacred tree and stone formations to guard the passage. ]

Scott's mind emerged with the oak tree that blocked out the sun and the stone formations under the shade of the oak tree.

[About a thousand years ago, Salazar Slytherin visited Doherty.

Before that, my ancestors had no intersection with wizards.

Slytherin arrogantly asked the ancestors to take him to the passage to Avalon. Of course, his request was sternly rejected. ]

Seeing this, Scott could already foresee the bloody storm that Slytherin had set off in the Sea of ​​Oaks a thousand years ago.

Sure enough...

[The angry Slytherin took action.

His strength is unstoppable.

Resistance and concealment are meaningless. A powerful wizard can even read other people's brains at will.

Slytherin killed many people from the Doherty family, broke into the Sea of ​​Oaks with a savage attitude, and came to the outside of the sacred tree and stone circle.

The Druid priest at that time said to him: "Powerful wizard, we really can't stop you. But you can't open the passage to Avalon, it has been closed for hundreds of years."

Slytherin said: "I have the key! That's the key left by Merlin! I got it from Merlin's servant!"

The priest said: "But your willfulness will eventually lead to the cruelest doom. Avalon is ruled by nine fairies, and they will give you the most severe punishment."

Slytherin laughed, "Fairies are just more powerful witches. I have gone far enough on the road of magic, and I don't believe there are wizards in the world who are much stronger than me!"

The sacred tree and stone circle did not stop him.

Under the desperate gaze of the priest, he took out the scabbard of the sword in the lake that was lost by King Arthur, and forcibly opened the passage to Avalon.

The priest called the names of Morgan and several other fairies, hoping that they would give Slytherin the harshest punishment, but he was disappointed.

No one showed up.

The fairies disappeared, and Avalon seemed to be a deserted land.

Slytherin sets foot on the land of Avalon.

A month later, he appeared again, completely peeling off the bark of the sacred tree and writing on it.

The bark of the sacred tree, filled with writing, eventually turned into a scroll. ]

This is the birth of [History Volume].

Scott understood.

Slytherin broke into Avalon and read the past history and future destiny through the [Thousand-Clear Eyes] left by Merlin, and recorded them on the bark of the sacred tree to make a [Scroll of History].

[Slytherin, who brought disaster to Doherty, left after re-closing the passage.

The druids, immersed in grief, could only do their best to save the dying sacred tree.

Ten years later, Slytherin arrived again.

At that time, he was still strong, but he was much older, as if he would die at any time due to old age.

He stepped into Avalon again and never came out again after closing the passage.

Ancestors believe he buried himself in the lands of Avalon.

They decided not to talk about what happened until they died.

This history eventually became a secret that only each generation of priests could know. ]

Scott exhaled slowly.

The prophecy says that Slytherin is sleeping, so he is not really dead.

[The above is the history I heard from my grandfather.

But that's not entirely true, is it?

Judging from the content of the prophecy, Slytherin is brewing a huge conspiracy.

Forgive me, Scott, even now that I have become a priest, I still don't know how to deal with this.

When Salazar Slytherin reappears, both you as revealed in the prophecy and the declining Doherty family may suffer disaster. ]

Scott raised his hand and rubbed his somewhat swollen temples.

He is very tired.

He had gone through duel training and a battle with Carlo this night, and there had been a cold wind blowing for a while just now.

Now he felt that the fatigue in his body was gushing out in waves like a tide.

But he still cheered up and read the next few sentences in the letter.

[But I won't give up.

I don't think you can either, right?

Because you have always been so high-spirited and don't seem to take any difficulties seriously.

I have always believed in you.

That’s all for this time’s letter. If there are any new discoveries, I will write to you again.

Savannah Doherty]

Scott put down the letter and rubbed his temples again.

"Are you okay?" Luna, who had been standing nearby, asked.

"I'm fine," Scott said. "I'm just tired."

"Then go to sleep." Luna said, "If this continues, your brain will completely lose its protection."

Scott put away Savannah's letter and nodded his heavy head.

"Then I'll go back." He didn't care to say anything else, "Good night."

"Good night."

Luna waved her hands and jumped up and down the stairs leading to the dormitory.

Scott also walked back to the dormitory with heavy steps.

He didn't alert his roommate, didn't wash up, and didn't even have time to review the contents of Savannah's letter. He fell directly on the bed and fell asleep.

The next day, Scott was woken up by bursts of cheers.

He opened his eyes and found that he was the only one left in the dormitory.

The sound coming from the distance announced that a wonderful game was taking place on the Quidditch pitch.

After Scott got up, he took a shower, went to the kitchen for a meal, and then ran to the Room of Requirement.

When he entered Helena's study, the girl Helena in the painting looked at him in great surprise.

"It's so rare, Scott, that you're actually late!"

"Feel sorry……"

"Sorry? You should tell your mother."

"..."

When Scott saw the portrait of Ravenclaw, he bowed and apologized.

The Ravenclaw in the painting doesn't criticize him, just asks him, "What happened?"

Scott obediently recounted what happened the night before, including the attack he suffered after duel training, and the contents of Savannah's letter.

Of course, the content of Savannah's letter is the focus.

"So, you got another piece of the puzzle." Ravenclaw said in the painting. "We don't know Salazar's actions after leaving Hogwarts. He has obviously gone through a lot."

Scott said: "From what we know in the past, coupled with the oral history of the Doherty family, Slytherin's coveting of Avalon is premeditated."

"The scabbard of the sword in the lake." Ravenclaw said in the painting, "This is the reason why Salazar asked Medea to marry into the Gaunt family."

As she spoke, she shook her head.

"Those days at Hogwarts, I thought Salazar had changed a lot," she said. "I didn't expect that he would still be the same person."
