Because the time he could stay in the past was limited, he had to grasp the remaining two chances to confirm the exact time.
Elwyn did not want to return to the Hogwarts of a thousand years ago, only to be unable to find Ravenclaw in the end …
If that was the case, what was he going back for?
A sightseeing trip to the Hogwarts of a thousand years ago? Or a taste of the terrible British cuisine of that era?
"The information recorded in this book should be accurate," Dumbledore said as he took out a crystal bottle from his pocket. Inside the bottle, there was a silvery-white swirling object floating in the air. "When Harry and I walk along Bob Ogden's memory lane, you can go back to the past to meet the founders of the Hogwarts and listen to the voices of our great ancestors!"
Listen to the teachings of the great ancestors. To be honest, Elwyn did not want to meet these dangerous and troublesome ancestors at all.
But he had no choice. He had to go back.
Elwyn did not say anything. He just nodded slightly and carefully confirmed the time recorded in the information in front of him.
Without considering emotional factors, going back to the Hogwarts of a thousand years ago was a good way to solve the problem. Elwyn had many questions for the four founders to answer. At the same time, he also wanted to ask about the whereabouts of the key left behind by Slytherin and Hufflepuff.
But considering the personalities of those people, it would be useless to ask a lot of questions. They would definitely not tell him.
When each founder left behind the treasure key, they also left behind riddles and tests. He had to pass their tests to get the reward. The mild-mannered Hufflepuff was fine, but Slytherin's cold and handsome face appeared in Elwyn's mind. He did not believe that Slytherin would take the initiative to tell him any information.
If he met Slytherin alone, it was hard to say what accidents might happen.
Besides, Elwyn's return to the Hogwarts a thousand years ago was part of the test left behind by Ravenclaw.
Starting from the mermaid in the lake, the clues she left led Elwyn to find the Coronet that was stolen by her daughter, Helena. The magic on the Coronet led Elwyn to follow in her footsteps to meet the Titan of Time and find the time converter.
This time converter was the one that brought Elwyn back to a thousand years ago. It was the beginning of everything.
Link by link, Ravenclaw had already planned all of this when she was designing it.
She might have deliberately let Helena steal her Coronet.
While completing the test left by Ravenclaw, Elwyn also met the Titan of Time, Kronos. This was probably part of the plan.
After Kronos told him a lot of things that were obviously beyond Elwyn's understanding, he also left behind a test.
He guided Elwyn to find the special time converter, which was part of his original power. However, the power of this time converter was not strong enough to bring Elwyn back to the Hogwarts a thousand years ago. Therefore, Elwyn had to collect the power of time scattered in other places to strengthen this time converter.
In this way, he had to go to the Sun Relic in Egypt and meet Ramesses II himself.
After agreeing to Ramesses II's request, Elwyn learned from him about the nature of Titan magic, the power of rules, and the replica of the Word of Horus, a magic item that could change the rules. He also knew that Ramesses II had once made a deal with the Titan of Time. Therefore, his going to Egypt to find the time converter seemed to be a coincidence. In fact, from the moment Elwyn met Kronos, he had already decided that this matter had been included in the rules of time and was bound to happen.
Saying so much is so complicated!
It took Elwyn a long time to sort it out by himself.
Also, these plans were beyond his control. Every move he made was within the expectations of these ancient wizards.
He felt like he was a chess piece that was being arranged to walk around and do this and that …
It was really an uncomfortable feeling!
After solving all these problems, it was not over.
Elwyn needed to go back a thousand years to see Ravenclaw again and get the key to the treasure she left behind from her.
In other words, it was hard to say whether he had passed Ravenclaw's test or not.
The whole process was full of countless dangers and was very troublesome.
When Ravenclaw left the test, she did not seem to think about the abilities of future generations at all.
She couldn't have set up the entire test based on her level of strength, right?
Compared to her, Slytherin's test was more troublesome. Currently, he was entangled with Lord Voldemort and involved two evil gods.
If Elwyn had the confidence to defeat Lord Voldemort and the evil gods, why would he go looking for the treasure left behind by the four founders?!
Hufflepuff's test had not started yet, but anything that was related to the devil would not be simple no matter how one looked at it.
All in all, Hufflepuff, Ravenclaw, and Slytherin's test were each more difficult than the last.
Elwyn really did not know what they were trying to do. Were they testing whether their teaching philosophy had been passed down, or were they trying to train a savior?
If that was the case, Gryffindor was the best. He did not purposely make things difficult for the future generations. Just like the School Sorting Hat, he left a part of his consciousness to personally choose the future generations that could satisfy him. There was no messy stuff involved …
He sighed and did not think about these messy things.
Now that the time had been determined, it was time to start. There was no need to hesitate.
It was not the first time that Elwyn had returned to the past. He looked up at Harry and Dumbledore.
After seeing Dumbledore slightly nod to him, Elwyn turned the time converter according to the time recorded in the book.
The next second, his body suddenly disappeared, leaving only an air vortex …
Harry stared at the place where Elwyn disappeared. He knew that Elwyn had returned to a thousand years ago.
This kind of magic, no matter when it was looked at, was incredible!
"Don't worry about Elwyn. He will take care of himself." Dumbledore said. He slowly poured the silver-white substance in the crystal bottle in his hand into the meditation basin. It slowly rotated in the basin, emitting a faint shimmer. It was neither liquid nor gas.
"But, Professor …"
"You look very worried."
Harry was silent. Let's not talk about Elwyn first. Indeed, he looked at the meditation basin with worry and fear.
For this strange object that stored and displayed thoughts and memories, although his previous experiences were quite enlightening, they were all very uncomfortable. The last time he broke in without permission, he saw many things that he did not want to see.
