Lady Ravenclaw was there when the incident happened in the forest of Albania, right?
She must have been there, but why didn't she stop Barrow and watch Helena get killed?
Also, what was the feeling Elwyn felt on the Coronet? Why did he enter that emotionless state?
Was it really because she had no feelings that she could accept her daughter's death calmly?
Ms. Ravenclaw did not seem to want to say more. It had nothing to do with how to defeat the evil god or what Elwyn was going to do this time. However, he could not accept it emotionally. Even though he knew that Ms. Ravenclaw had no feelings and all her thoughts were absolutely rational, Elwyn still felt very uncomfortable and could not accept it. It was just like how he insisted on risking his life to save Malfoy, saving Ron with friendship, and giving Dwarf Peter a chance to repent.
Elwyn felt that he was the opposite of Ms. Ravenclaw, who had "absolute wisdom". He was too sentimental!
Especially at those critical moments, his IQ would quickly go offline.
Instead, he was dominated by some messy thoughts and feelings in his heart. He was even willing to take great risks to do some things, to verify a certain idea in his heart, or to practice a certain belief that he had always believed in.
Logically speaking, these thoughts and behaviors were completely childish, but Elwyn just could not let it go.
He had done a lot of "stupid things" because of this, and he might never become a powerful wizard like Ms. Ravenclaw or Professor Dumbledore. However, Elwyn felt that this was his true self, not what others thought he should be …
He had never thought that he was different from others. He was just an ordinary person full of contradictions and willing to believe in beauty. However, Elwyn had never felt that there was anything wrong with him like this. After all, this was who he was.
Whether it was good or bad, what Elwyn needed to do was to accept himself instead of hate and change himself.
Therefore, he was very stubborn to find out what Ms. Ravenclaw's real thoughts were.
Even if these things were meaningless.
"Professor!" Thinking of this, Elwyn raised his head and stared at Ravenclaw resolutely. "You just came out from that forest, right? You saw Helena being … killed by Barrow, right? Why didn't you stop it?! "
"Why do you think I didn't stop it?" Ravenclaw asked calmly.
"Because …" Elwyn paused for a moment and then said what he thought, even though he knew it was impolite and would offend Ms. Ravenclaw. "Because you have no emotions and can't feel feelings. You only use your cold and absolute wisdom to think about gains and losses. Therefore, Helena's death won't make you sad or sad, even if she was your daughter. To put it bluntly, you didn't care about her life at all. Therefore, she wanted to escape from the Hogwarts by all means possible. I heard her conversation with Barrow. The Hogwarts made her feel pressure and pain. She hated this place. I don't think it's right. "
Ms. Ravenclaw stared at Elwyn quietly and didn't seem to have any special reaction.
"You're right, Elwyn. I also don't think it's right!" she said softly after a long time.
Elwyn was stunned. He didn't expect Ms. Ravenclaw to answer like this.
He thought that she would avoid this unpleasant topic or explain to him that there had to be sacrifices in order to achieve a greater benefit. Professor Dumbledore would usually say this, but Elwyn didn't expect Ms. Ravenclaw to admit it so frankly.
"I'm not a competent mother. I can't even be considered a normal person. I'm related to Helena's escape and death. I'm the one who caused this outcome. I've let her down. " Ravenclaw continued. There was no fluctuation in her ethereal voice, as if she wasn't talking about her own matters. "I've always been used to thinking about how to obtain the best outcome. I always thought that what I did would be good for Helena, but I never considered the pressure I brought to her. I never considered her feelings because I don't have feelings either. Therefore, I never thought that making the most sensible decision and choice wasn't the best.
"There are gains and losses in everything in the world. I've obtained absolute wisdom, and the price I paid was my own feelings. Since I was young, I've never felt any feelings. I don't know what love is, nor do I know what evil is. I don't even have the normal feelings of sweetness, coldness, pain, or itch. I'm like a bystander watching this world. A soul resides in the body of Rowena Ravenclaw. No matter what happens in this world, it has nothing to do with me … "
She doesn't even have a sense of taste and touch?
Elwyn didn't expect it to be so serious. He originally thought that Ms. Ravenclaw just didn't have feelings.
Now, it seemed that she didn't have any feelings at all, including feelings in a broader sense.
"Different from those patients who lost their sense of self, I can't feel any feelings, but I've obtained absolute wisdom. This is a terrible combination. Because I don't have feelings, I can use my wisdom without any restriction or influence. It's not only in the study and research of magic, but also in the way I conduct myself. I can easily understand other people's thoughts and know why they react the way they do. I don't need to train deliberately. It's a talent that I'm born with. I can easily understand people's minds and know how to control them, even though I've never felt those feelings before." Ravenclaw said, "I remember it very clearly. It should be when I was four years old. After a short period of observation, I started to learn to imitate other people. I remembered how to react to different things so that I wouldn't seem so special and more like an ordinary person …"
