Among the many mysteries of Ravenclaw Castle, Darian Ravenclaw was definitely an extremely special existence.
Elwyn felt that he should know something.
"Aunt has really chosen an impatient heir. You don't look like Ravenclaw at all, but more like Gryffindor," Darian said faintly as he casually took two steps forward. Darian said faintly as he casually took two steps forward. "As I said just now, I and the poor old butler are both phantoms of the past. For more than a thousand years, I've been imprisoned in this castle by evil magic. I've always been there, but I've never been seen by the living. It was your arrival that called us back from the darkness."
Elwyn didn't say anything. He pointed his wand down and motioned for Darian to continue.
He had some guesses, but he wasn't very sure.
Since it was Ravenclaw's Coronet that caused all these changes, then …
"The Coronet on your head caused the changes. As for who cast the spell that brought us back to life, the answer is obvious. Of course, it was my dear aunt, Lady Rowena Ravenclaw."
"Lady Ravenclaw?!" Elwyn said. It was indeed Rowena Ravenclaw.
Like the Coronet, was it another event that was planned a thousand years ago?!
Before this, Elwyn didn't like Salazar Slytherin very much.
Because he represented trouble, and the tests he left behind were layers upon layers. The enemies he faced were stronger and more troublesome. But now, he also didn't like Rowena Ravenclaw a little. She seemed to have calculated what Elwyn would do a thousand years ago, and then planned everything to wait for him.
It was the same with the Coronet before, and the situation here was the same.
If things went wrong, Elwyn would have to go back to the era of the ancient gods with her and help the Titans solve the evil god's descent. What a headache!
"That's right. Apart from her, who else could set up a spell across thousands of years? Powerful Magi are not rare, but as far as I know, she's the only one who can control the power of time! " Darian paused and continued, "I've seen that special time converter in the family's internal information. Do you have it with you?"
Without answering his question, Elwyn did not admit that the time converter was in his hands.
He thought for a moment and said, "You don't seem like a squib at all!"
"Not having the ability to cast spells doesn't hinder me from gaining knowledge from books. I have to admit that Ravenclaw is smarter than the wizards of other families. That's why the Coronet on your head is called the Crown of Wisdom, not the Crown of Power, Crown of Courage, or Crown of Power." Darian said, "It's a pity that I can't feel magic, but it also means that I don't need to waste more precious time on meaningless waving of the wand. Instead, I can stay quietly in the library and read, gaining any magical knowledge I want to know. In fact, I learned a lot of knowledge from the books."
He seemed to be very willing to talk about this topic, and said, "Father and many people in the family have been working to restore the glory of the family. They've been looking for the whereabouts of the Coronet on your head and have done a lot of things. For this reason, the relationship with the Council of Elders, the Hogwarts, and other wizard families is tense, but they've never been willing to calm down and read a book. It's sad, isn't it? I've always thought that it's knowledge that makes the Ravenclaw family strong, not the Coronet. "
"Is it just knowledge that you've gained? I saw those statues when I came up just now. Markus said you carved them? "Elwyn continued," Those statues are all the creations of the evil gods. They're resurrected now! "
"I just carved the monsters I saw inside the Death's Gate. Their resurrection has nothing to do with me," Darian said. "Well, I think it's because the evil god inside the gate is descending, and its power has resurrected them."
"Have you ever entered the Death's Gate?" Elwyn frowned.
"No, it's all in the book. My ancestors left a detailed record, and I found it in a pile of documents," Darian said. "No one but me is interested in these interesting records. I originally hoped to alert my father and my people in this way, to let them realize what's inside the Death's Gate, but it didn't work. In fact, most people think these are fabricated monsters that don't exist at all."
"Well …" Elwyn didn't quite trust Darian's statement. He thought for a moment and continued to ask, "What happened here? What about Lady Ravenclaw's magic? Also, I heard from Markus that there's magic in this book room that can stop the Death's Gate from opening and put the soul to rest. Where is it? "
"These are actually the same thing," Darian replied, walking to his music box. "In fact, you should know better than I do. After all, you're Rowena Ravenclaw's heir. Everything she planned should be done by you."
"What do I need to do?" Elwyn asked. He didn't quite understand the meaning of Darian's words.
"The whole magic, the magic that Ravenclaw's ancestors left in the castle, the magic of the Valkyrie."
"The magic of the Valkyrie?!" Elwyn repeated, feeling even more puzzled.
There was indeed a magic set up inside the castle. The layout of the castle and the magic runes on the walls all indicated this. There was a powerful magic here, but where was this magic? How was it to be used?
Judging from the sky above and the magic runes on the surrounding stone pillars, this should be the center of the entire castle.
But the magic in this place was also the most chaotic and complicated, and Elwyn hadn't found a way to cast it.
"Yes, the magic of the Valkyrie. Only this magic can stop the opening of the Death's Gate and put the souls of all the dead to rest. It was left by the ancestors of the Ravenclaw family, and only the true heir of the family can cast it," Darian said slowly. "The true heir of the Ravenclaw family, the inheritor of the Valkyrie's magic, and the guardian of the Death's Gate."
With every word he said, he took a step closer to Elwyn.
As Darian approached, Elwyn could feel the surrounding magic becoming more and more chaotic.
"My aunt, she's the last guardian of the family. She chose you, so you're the new heir of the Valkyrie's magic and the guardian of the Death's Gate. It's up to you to do all this," Darian said, reaching out his right hand to Elwyn.
As soon as he finished speaking, the time converter on Elwyn's neck floated up, and the needle on it rotated faster and faster.
