Helga was certain of Jon's conjecture.
"But are you sure you don't want to tell Dumbledore about this?" Helga closed the parchment in her hand. "That way, it'll be a reminder."
"That won't be necessary. I remember …" Jon paused for a moment. He didn't want to tell her what he remembered, but changed his words. "Economic warfare doesn't seem like an all-out war. I think this is a test. I just don't know if it's a test by Voldemort's subordinates, or if it's a test by the German Black Wizard to rescue the first Black Lord."
"What do you think? Tell me about it. "
Helga was pretty sure about most of Jon's ideas recently. Jon was always able to guess the right direction, which surprised Helga.
In their time, every surviving adept maintained this ability to predict and judge the situation. That was the only way to avoid putting themselves in danger.
But in this era, it was rare to see such a Wizard. Helga had spent so many years in the castle, but she rarely saw young Wizards who were outstanding in this aspect. These students mostly focused on Quidditch and Nocturnal Castles. The last student she admired was Tom Riddle. Under Jon's introduction, Helga already knew that this student would become the second Black Lord.
"If it's the latter, then it's not a big deal. Since Dumbledore was able to lock Grindelwald up in Newmungarde for the sake of justice, then no matter how much the German Black Wizard tries to stir up trouble, it won't be a big deal. As long as Dumbledore makes a trip to Newmungarde, nothing big will happen."
Jon cleared his throat and continued, "If Voldemort has already taken in the German Black Wizard, then there's no need to worry. As long as Voldemort doesn't revive, those Black Wizards won't really attack the British Wizard World."
Helga nodded. She didn't really care about the Black Wizard's attack. After all, she was now living in the portrait and couldn't affect the outside world, and the outside world couldn't kill her either. Helga was worried about Jon's safety.
There was only one bloodline left, so she had to think of a way to protect Jon.
"Even if those people won't really attack, some small disturbances can't be avoided. How about this, starting from the next class, I'll start teaching you some of the battle charms I mastered back then."
"Battle charms? But you said that many of the charms in the Wizard World are being improved. Are the charms you used back then still applicable now? "
Jon's questions were always on the key point, but Helga had naturally considered this. "You don't have to worry about that. The improvement I'm talking about isn't because these charms are outdated. On the contrary, it's because these charms have too much power, and the magic environment later on can't handle it. Otherwise, do you think that the only charms that can kill people are the Death Charms?"
"Alright."
Although he could foresee that the coming days would be more difficult, this was a choice he had to make in order to save his life.
"Then, when do we start learning?"
Helga waved her hand. "No rush, no rush. Let's stop here for today. I have to find the feeling of teaching students back then. Next Tuesday, we'll practice in Ravenclaw's study. Didn't you say you found a way to open the drawer? This time, we can try to open the drawer."
"Alright, then I'll go first."
Jon gathered his thoughts and recalled his dorm. The scene in front of him started to blur, and the next moment, he opened his eyes abruptly.
Looking at the time, it was already five in the morning. Jon was not in the mood to sleep, so he sat on the bed and meditated for a while. When he felt that his spirit was slightly better, he climbed out of bed.
Today was Sunday, so there was nothing to study. He had already finished his homework. Now, what Jon needed to do was to start learning the theory of magic.
When he first started learning magic, the first reason was to save his life. The second reason was because he wanted to become a scholar who studied magic.
Learning those charms for fighting and killing was because he had no choice, but studying magic was what Jon liked to do.
Science and magic were both ways to see through the essence of the world.
In the words of a physicist, in this world, the end of science was magic.
As for Jon, he felt that his learning of magic had only just begun.
The essence of a Wizard's magic was to mobilize the magic in his body and display it to the outside world through a specific method to complete the corresponding task.
From this point, Jon had a personal experience, which he realized when he was meditating.
In this world, the floating magic elements between heaven and earth were essentially no different from the magic in a Wizard's body. These magic elements were absorbed into a Wizard's body and thus became magic.
Jon named places with a higher density of magic elements as places with strong magic elements, and places with a lower density of magic elements as places with weak magic elements.
Most places in the world had weak magic elements, so in a place that was completely filled with Muggle, it was reasonable for a Wizard to be born. It was unreasonable for multiple Wizards to be born at the same time.
If magic elements could be integrated into a Wizard's body, then conversely, a Wizard's soul could exist purely by relying on magic elements.
Jon suspected that this was the reason why Voldemort could exist in the form of a soul. Although the soul artifact ensured that Voldemort would not die, without the protection of magic elements, his soul could only exist by lodging in someone else's body.
Then, that forest in Albania should be a strong magic element like the Hogwarts Castle?
In that case, Voldemort's situation was actually not that bad. And since he could hide in Albania, then Jon's previous guess was very likely to be true.
But if that was really the case, Voldemort could have found an ordinary Wizard to possess and then resurrected in Albania. There was no need for him to come all the way to the Hogwarts to find Harry Potter.
The most likely reason was that the restriction of the resurrection spell was that he had to find the person he hated the most in his heart. And because of the effect of the ancient spell, before Harry came of age, Voldemort could not capture him personally, nor could he borrow someone else's hand to take Harry away from the protection of the Phoenix Society.
After all, he had lost to Dumbledore.
Because of this, Jon was full of curiosity about that forest in Albania.
Ravenclaw's crown was now a soul artifact, and was hidden in the Hogwarts House. As long as Jon wanted, this soul artifact would be his.
Once Voldemort was completely eliminated, he would definitely make a trip to this place.
