One.
After Helena finished her words, there was a long silence. Only the sound of the bonfire could be heard.
"I love you, Helena. You know that!" Barrow said affectionately.
"If you really love me, then leave this place immediately," Helena Ravenclaw said softly. She was not moved at all.
"No, you have to go back with me. Ms. Ravenclaw wants to see you. She's sick, very sick."
"My mother..." Helena took a deep breath. At that moment, she seemed to be a bit hesitant, but soon she calmed down again. "For a wizard like her, death is not the end. I'm very sorry for my mother. I've done something unfilial and unjust, but I won't go back to Hogwarts. My mother and the other three professors have their own lofty ideals. I don't, and I don't have the ability to inherit that magic school and their will. That place is a cage full of pain for me. Now I finally have my freedom. As long as... one day, I'll be smarter than my mother and more famous than her. "
"Enough!" Barrow suddenly roared. He walked out of the shadow of the fire.
Elwyn saw the twisted expression on Barrow's face, which looked very scary. Barrow was very angry.
"I don't believe you. Everything you said is a lie. I gave you a chance, but you still wouldn't tell me the truth. I know why you left Hogwarts. Before I left, Malfoy told me everything. Someone saw you with a man, a lowly mud bastard. You two eloped together! " He breathed heavily and walked to Helena step by step. "Tell me his name, Helena. Tell me who he is. I'm going to kill him!"
"I told you just now. It's just me," Helena said angrily. "Do you know why I hate you? Because of your bad temper and your unsalvageable intelligence. You don't love me at all. You just want the support of my mother and Professor Gryffindor. I would rather marry Muggle than choose you. "
"Shut up!"
"Don't think I don't know, Barrow. You're jealous of me. It's ridiculous. I see it as something I want to get rid of, but you're jealous of it. You want to get it. You're jealous of my identity as the heir of Ravenclaw family. You're jealous that my mother is one of the four founders of Hogwarts. You're jealous that I'm more powerful than you. You're jealous of the things you can never get. You're jealous of my freedom, "Helena continued." You're jealous... "
She stopped abruptly. Barrow pulled out his short sword and stabbed it into her chest.
The sword was very sharp. It took away Helena's life almost instantly. She didn't even have the chance to scream in pain.
Helena stared at Barrow with her eyes wide open. Her eyes were filled with shock, disbelief, hatred, curiosity, and other complicated emotions.
In front of her, Barrow gripped the dagger tightly, using all the strength in his body. His eyes were bloodshot and the muscles on his face were extremely twisted.
Helena's blood splashed all over him, and the red blood almost soaked through his robe.
There was an indescribable madness in Barrow's current appearance. It was terrifying and intimidating.
Elwyn held his breath and looked at the murder taking place on the empty ground.
Everything had happened too quickly. He did not even have time to think and react. Helena had died.
She shouldn't feel any pain. This thought appeared in Elwyn's mind.
Helena fell back heavily. Barrow stood there alone. The light from the fire elongated his shadow.
After a long while, the madness and savagery on his face receded. What replaced it was pain and dullness.
As he panted heavily, he seemed to realize what he had done. Tears flowed out uncontrollably.
Only Barrow's cries could be heard in the empty ground.
He should really love Helena. This thought appeared in Elwyn's mind.
Otherwise, he wouldn't have cried so miserably after killing Helena out of impulse.
But this love is really heavy ….
In the empty ground, the regretful Barrow hugged Helena tightly. He cried so miserably.
Then, without any warning, he picked up the dagger again and committed suicide. He ended his life.
The two of them died just like that. Elwyn looked at Barrow's body slowly falling next to Helena. They couldn't have been together when they were alive. However, they were together in this way after death. Only two overlapping skeletons were left for future generations to investigate. However, Elwyn knew that this was not the end of their fates.
Death was really just a beginning. In the long 1,000 years that followed, their souls would continue to wander around Hogwarts Castle. They would become the ghosts of Ravenclaw Academy and Slytherin Academy. The cold Hogwarts Castle and the tower of Ravenclaw Academy were the cages that Helena had tried so hard to escape from when she was alive. To Barrow, as long as he was next to Helena, his soul was destined to only feel pain.
If he left, it might be even more painful …
A soft sigh sounded next to Elwyn's ears. It seemed to be Madam Ravenclaw's voice.
The next second, the raven that Elwyn had transformed into moved again.
It flew down from the branch and landed next to Helena's face. It looked at her closely.
Then, the raven spread its wings and flew into the night sky, moving up the tall tree trunk.
At the height where the moon could be seen again, a hole appeared on the tree trunk. Ravenclaw's Coronet was placed there quietly.
This was the complete Coronet. The sapphire was emitting a gentle glow under the moonlight.
Above the sapphire was the main body of the Coronet. It was in the shape of a raven spreading its wings. It wasn't silver like what Elwyn had seen. Instead, it was light gold and emitted a bright glow. The radiance of the sapphire and the light gold of the Coronet were mixed together and reflected the moonlight in the distance.
Below the Coronet, there was a line of words that could be clearly seen: Extraordinary intelligence is the greatest wealth of mankind.
Similarly, the magic surrounding the Coronet was very clear. When Elwyn had approached the tree, he had felt a strange magic from afar. He had thought that it was the tree's magic, but now he knew that it was the magic emitted by Ravenclaw's Coronet. This was a legendary magic item of a very high level and possessed great power.
In the future, what Lord Voldemort and Elwyn found was only a defective product. It didn't have much power and only had a symbolic meaning.
