"It … it's broken?!"
Ravenclaw's Coronet, a legendary magical item, was broken in half just like that!
Elwyn blinked his eyes in disbelief.
He stared at the rusty Coronet. There was no longer any magical aura on it.
As the Coronet broke, the fragment of Lord Voldemort's soul that resided inside also dissipated and disappeared completely.
Now, the Coronet was just an ordinary iron headband, the most ordinary kind.
If he did not know that this was Ravenclaw's Coronet, Elwyn would not even look at it.
He picked up one of the pieces and observed it carefully.
This thing's material is too fragile. Or is the snake monster's poisonous fangs too powerful?!
One had to know that when dark Magi were creating soul tools, they would cast powerful spells on them to protect them from being damaged.
To destroy a soul tool, tearing it into pieces and grinding it into powder would not work.
Under the effect of magic, it would be restored to its original state.
Therefore, it had to be destroyed by something so powerful that it could no longer be restored with magic.
The snake monster's poisonous fangs were one of those things. There was only one antidote for the snake monster's poison, and that was the Tear of the Phoenix.
Elwyn originally wanted to use the poison to destroy the thing that resided in the Coronet. He did not expect that when it collided with the sharp poisonous fangs, the already rotten Coronet would also break into pieces. It was like an ordinary item without any magic.
He did not know what Lord Voldemort did to Ravenclaw's Coronet. Or was it originally like this?!
Elwyn placed the Coronet back on the table and waved his wand. "Restore to its original state!"
A red light flashed. There was no reaction. His magic could not restore the broken Coronet.
"Interesting!" Elwyn picked up the Coronet again and played with it in his hand.
There was only one possibility for this to happen, and that was that his magic power was not strong enough.
The thing that Elwyn needed to repair was far beyond his ability, so the spell failed.
In other words, Ravenclaw's Coronet was not as simple as it looked. There were magical powers that Elwyn did not understand.
He knew that Lord Voldemort had modified the Coronet to make it look ordinary. This was not the Coronet's original appearance.
In order to restore it, Elwyn needed the help of more powerful magic, such as the Sorcerer's Stone or the Old Wand!
The power of the Sorcerer's Stone could not be used casually. It needed to be guided by a Magic Array.
Recently, Elwyn had been studying the Star Magic Circle on the Toma Temple and the Silence Magic Circle engraved on the Silence Temple. He had gained a lot and gradually figured out the correct way to use the Sorcerer's Stone.
But after all, he was only a beginner. He still needed time to conduct follow-up research, so he could not use the Sorcerer's Stone in the short term.
That left only the Old Wand. It seemed that he still had to look for Dumbledore.
Elwyn put away the two halves of the Coronet and prepared to study it. If he could not find it, he would look for Dumbledore.
Anyway, there was still enough time before the merfolk's next gathering.
Elwyn came out of the house and replaced the Room of Granted Requests with the secret room where he made his potions.
He went in to check and put away the potions that Keresis gave him.
These things were all stolen from Snape's personal storage cabinet. There were many precious herbs that were not suitable to carry around.
Then, Elwyn summoned Dobby and gave him some instructions. He also asked him to bring some food over.
He was starving. After all, he had not eaten anything all day.
When Elwyn returned to the common room, Harry, Ron and Hermione were still discussing how to breathe underwater.
There was a pile of books on the table in front of them, including "The Mad Magic of the Weird Wizard", "A Guide to Medieval Witchcraft", "Selected Spells of the 18th Century", "Terrifying Animals in the Depths of the Earth" and "The Abilities You Don't Know You Have and How to Use Them Once You Understand".
Hermione was trying to find a way to survive underwater, while Harry and Ron were discussing.
They were studying the possibility of deliberately provoking Professor Moody into using the Transfiguration Spell on Ron.
"Elwyn, you're back. Where did you go with Professor Moody the whole day?!"
Seeing Elwyn climb into the common room, their eyes lit up.
"Elwyn, do you have a way to breathe underwater?" Ron asked hurriedly, looking at him hopefully.
"Underwater breathing?!" Elwyn walked over and sat beside Hermione. "Using the Bobbing Spell is a good idea."
"Hermione said that you need to be in the sixth grade to learn that spell!" Harry said. "Is there any other way?"
The three of them told the secret of the golden egg to Elwyn as fast as they could, even though he already knew about it.
"You have to help me, Elwyn!" Ron sighed. "Otherwise, I'll drown in the water!"
"Yeah, the three of us don't have a way," Harry said. "We can only count on you!"
"Well, if the Bobbing Spell doesn't work, we can only use the Gill Sac Grass!" Elwyn said. Seizing this opportunity, he took out the Gill Sac Grass and handed it to Ron. "I happen to have this herb here. Eat it before the competition. It can help you breathe underwater for an hour, which is enough for you to complete the competition! "
"Are you sure this thing will work?!" Ron stared at the thing that looked like a grayish-green rat tail hesitantly.
"Gill Sac Grass?!" Hermione stared at it too and suddenly thought of something. "I think I've seen this before. Oh, it's called 'Magical Aquatic Plants of the Mediterranean and Their Characteristics'. I borrowed it from the library to supplement my herbalism class."
"Is this grass reliable?"
"Of course. Once you eat it, you'll grow gills and webbed fingers and toes. You'll be able to breathe and hesitate underwater. It's one of the most magical herbs." Hermione looked up at Elwyn. "I should've thought of it, but it's very, very rare in books. Elwyn, where did you get this Gill Sac Grass? "
"Well, this is from my personal collection. As you know, I've been brewing potions. I asked Professor Lupin to help me collect all kinds of rare potion ingredients, and I happened to have this thing," Elwyn explained.
"So, you've been carrying it with you?!"
"Yes!" Elwyn nodded. "My cloth bag has been expanded by the Traceless Stretch Spell. It can hold a lot of things in it."
Looking at Hermione's expression, it was obvious that she was suspicious. This girl was always particularly sensitive when it came to these kinds of things.
She and Elwyn looked at each other for a while and did not continue to ask.
As for Harry and Ron, they were still studying the Gill Sac Grass and did not notice anything wrong.
