"She's my daughter, but I've let her down … But I'm sorry, Helga, we have no other way to save Helena. Otherwise, the era I'm in will definitely have a completely unknown change …" Allen tried his best to explain the reason to Hufflepuff. "I know a word of thanks can't make up for your care for the mother and daughter … But I can only thank you so simply now."
Hufflepuff was silent for a while before her expression softened. She sat on the chair in the headmaster's office and looked up at Allen. "You're not here just because I sent you an invitation letter, right?"
"Helga, we still need to imitate the Netherese era to create a staff that represents our identity. I'll use it for the next mission I need to complete during my next conversion … But we lack some raw materials, so I hope you can support me …" Allen was not hypocritical. Instead, he told Hufflepuff the purpose of his visit. He paused and added, "Loina hopes you can understand her. If possible, I hope you can join in the research on the Netherese scroll. Helga, I can't stay here forever … Although I'm doing this for selfish reasons, I personally hope that you can spend more time with Loina … This is the only way we can repay you a little. "
"Since when have you been so polite when taking things from me? Write me a letter if you want anything, and I'll send it to you." Hufflepuff sighed. She found that she could no longer stop the two guys who were obsessed with research. She had no reason to stop them, so she simply expressed her full support. "But I won't be joining you guys. Loina can stay alive because she won the divine blood from the dangerous demon in a bet. I don't intend to let you guys take the risk and make another bet with a Grand Duke. Whether he can get that kind of thing again is another matter. The Philosopher's Stone and the Sorcerer's Stone are full of evil, and they can't guarantee you true immortality. I'm sorry, Allen, but I have no intention of doing so. If you're from the Hogwarts a thousand years in the future, and it's the number one magic academy in the world, then it means that my efforts have not been in vain. My greatest wish in life has already been achieved … "
"Helga, I understand. Thank you for always supporting us." Allen did not try to persuade her further. According to historical records, Hufflepuff died in the eleventh century, but Hufflepuff was obviously not Ravenclaw. She could not fake her death and abandon everything else …
"Allen, but … I do have a request." Hufflepuff's kind face showed a hint of awkwardness and pleading.
"As long as I can do it, I will not refuse." Allen replied seriously. If he could at least repay some of the favor, it would at least make him feel better.
"Did Loina tell you about Godric Gryffindor?" Helga asked tentatively.
Allen had just nodded when he heard Helga's complaining tone. "It's all because of Loina. His family's blood curse has been activated, and he has no choice but to turn into a giant squid in the Black Lake. Every day, he only has a small amount of time to revert to his human form and wander around the castle." Helga glanced at Alan. She, who was usually willing to give but rarely asked for anything, was not used to the change in roles. She blushed and said in a low voice, "Godric didn't know about the time converter. He always thought that you abandoned Loina and caused her temperament to change. He also thought that Helena's death angered that selfish Raven to death, so he wanted to duel with the irresponsible jerk who caused their deaths in his eyes … Alan, I personally hope that you can duel with him once and fulfill his only wish now before he completely turns into a giant squid. He's been spending less and less time transforming back into a human recently, and his mind is starting to blur. He can't differentiate between a wizard and a giant squid. In fact, I suspect that if it weren't for this obsession, he probably wouldn't have wanted to turn back into a wizard after Loina faked her death …" Helga said in a low voice, "Alan, I personally hope that you can duel with him once to end his only wish now before he completely turns into a giant squid.
"Thank you, Helga. No matter who it is, it's a very lucky thing to be friends with you. I'm very willing to duel with him. " Allen stood up and solemnly made a wizard's salute to Hufflepuff. "Although there are some misunderstandings, in fact, I'm very grateful for his selfless help to Ravenclaw all these years."
"It's nothing, Allen. You don't have to do this …" Hufflepuff hurriedly returned the salute. She continued in a pleading tone, "I hope that you can duel with him again when you have enough confidence. I know that after you studied the Nether Scroll, Godric, who has been stagnant for many years, is no longer your opponent. But I still hope that you can improve your strength to the point where you can control your power in a duel and be confident that you won't harm his life. I hope that if the lion sees your current appearance, it will most likely understand your difficulties …"
Allen once again nodded solemnly and promised, "I think I can already do it, Helga. I promise it will be so … This is also what Loina and I owe him …"
"By the way, I haven't given you your prize when you were the champion of my tavern's double-headed bull game back in the carnival." Hufflepuff saw that they had finished talking business and added to Allen, "I also built a secret chamber in the forbidden forest. They gave me an Ioun Stone found in the ruins of Nether Seril during their adventure. I have no use for it anymore, so I'll give it to you."
"Erm … In my timeline, in fact, I think I've already received it when I completed your secret chamber challenge … Helga, you can continue to put it in there. I think you understand what I mean …" Allen looked a little embarrassed. He did not expect Fried Bull Advanced Player to still follow him around like a shadow …
"In that case, I have to leave you with a challenge …" Helga nodded thoughtfully.
The two talked for a while and temporarily agreed that no one else would be present in this duel except for Allen, Godric and Hufflepuff. Ravenclaw would see if she was willing to tell Gryffindor about the faked death. From tonight onwards, Hufflepuff would take advantage of the time when the giant squid turned back into a red-haired sorcerer wandering around the academy to inform him of Allen's arrival and set a time for the duel. Finally, he would inform Ravenclaw and the others through a letter.
Seeing that things were more or less settled, Allen drank up the remaining wine in his glass and asked Hufflepuff for a bottle of ink and a quill pen. He listed down the list of materials he and Ravenclaw would need to create magical items in the future. After bidding farewell to Hufflepuff, Allen stepped into the shadow of a desk in the headmaster's office with a few puddings and dinner that Hufflepuff had prepared for him. He teleported back to Ravenclaw's secret laboratory from the Hogwarts Magic Academy where Phantom Transference was prohibited.
