The Emerald at Hogwarts

Chapter 115 Are You Doing Well at School

The young woman pushed open the door of the building and led Ada into the foyer. Whether it was outside or inside the building, this orphanage was much better than it was in London.

On the left hand side of the foyer is a clean and spacious dining room and activity room, on the right hand side are the reading room and several classrooms, facing the door is a flight of stairs, and behind the stairs is a locked underground storage room.

Along the stairs, Ada followed the young woman to the second floor and walked towards the innermost room. The children she met on the way would greet them politely. Some children called the young woman Miss Nelson, and some The child is called Catherine.

At the door of the innermost room, Miss Nelson knocked lightly on the door and said, "Ms. Valente, this is Catherine. Miss Esmeralda Drizzt has arrived."

The Ms. Valente mentioned by Catherine Nelson is the person in charge of this orphanage. She is a very capable middle-aged woman, and it is all thanks to her that she can maintain the place so well.

The door of the room was opened, and Ms. Valente, who was kind and well-dressed, came out. Ms. Valente adjusted her glasses and looked at Ada and said, "You are as beautiful as she said, come in, she will wait for you." You've been around for a long time."

Ada and Ms. Valent entered the room one after another. Miss Nelson did not follow, but returned to the yard to take care of the children playing there.

The size of the room is not large, and the items placed there belong to Mrs. Mary. Ida also saw a photo of herself with Mrs. Mary before going to Hogwarts, and a photo of herself sent by her before (of course not moving, normal kind of photo).

Mrs. Mary was sleeping on the bed. Her face looked terrible, gray and haggard, and her brows were tightly knit together even in her sleep because of her illness.

"After returning from the hospital, she became very lethargic, and there were not many times when she could stay awake every day." Ms. Valente brought Ada a chair and continued, "A kind person like her shouldn't have to suffer like this." painfully."

Ada and Ms. Valente sat down by the bed together. Ada never took her eyes off of Mrs. Mary. Mrs. Mary, who was tortured by the illness, was thinner than when Ada left. Even without magic, Ada can now Pick her up.

"When did it start?" Ada asked softly, not wanting to disturb the sleeping Madam Mary.

"At Christmas, she was still showing off your letter to me. After a few days, her physical condition began to get worse and worse, and she couldn't lift her spirits every day. She didn't pay much attention at that time." Valente The lady said while recalling, "After Easter, she suddenly fainted in the yard, and then we sent her to the hospital, and the doctor said..."

Ms. Valente didn't continue to speak, she turned her head away and sniffed. This kind of action shouldn't have happened to her, but as she said, a kind person like Mrs. Mary shouldn't have to suffer like this pain.She was pitying Lady Mary as well as herself.

"The doctor originally wanted to keep her in the hospital, but she insisted on coming back, and we couldn't hold her back." Ms. Valente continued, "A few children she had taken care of came to see her in the past few days. It's a gratifying thing."

Ms. Valent sat with Ada for a while, chatted a few words about Mrs. Mary, and after caring about Ada's study, she proposed to leave. She said: "You can stay with her alone for a while, wake up If she can see you, she will be very happy. I will arrange a place for you to live in, and then I will go to see the children. "

After seeing off Ms. Valente, Ada took off the "Last Glory" hanging around her neck.On the way from Hogwarts to the orphanage, Ada was thinking of a way to see if she could help Mrs. Mary get through this.

At first Ada thought of potions, but Ada searched her brains and thought for a long time, but she didn't think of any potions that could be applied to Madam Mary's condition. At most, it would help her delay her death.

Ada even thought of the potion used by Glover Cecil, but this potion needs the user to have magic power, and Mrs. Mary is just a Muggle. Obviously, this potion is not effective for her, it will only Hasten her pain and death.

After much deliberation, there was no result, so Ada gave up the potion, changed her thinking, and then she thought of the ring hanging on her body.One of the passives of the ring is barbaric growth, which is used to increase the vitality of the wearer.If Mrs. Mary's vitality is improved, maybe she can recover!
Ada stuffed the ring into Madam Mary's hand, waiting for the passive and savage growth to take effect.It's just that the ring, which was originally shimmering, became dim as soon as it was placed in Madam Mary's hands, as if it was just an ordinary black iron ring.

Ding!Ding!Ding!The notification sound of the system kept exploding in Ada's mind, like a magic spell, and Ada did not expect that this broken ring would have the function of automatic alarm when the ring is separated from the human ring. Hui Ada has become a blasting genius.

Resisting the ding sound, Ada opened the system prompt, but she still didn't take the ring back despite her unwillingness to give up.

[The last glory cannot take effect on wearers other than the host, please take it back as soon as possible! 】

It was another exclusive prop like a trial puppet, which could not be used by others. Ada reluctantly took the ring back, but this time she did not hang it around her neck again, but tore off the red thread and put it on herself directly. hands.

Rings worn on different fingers have different meanings.The right hand has no meaning except for the ring finger, so you can wear it casually.But Ada is right-handed, and the dominant hand of the wand is also the right hand. It is somewhat inconvenient to wear the ring that can be turned into a shield on the right hand, so she wears the ring on her left hand.

The left hand is the luck that God bestows on human beings. Everyone usually wears the ring on the left hand. She put the "last glory" on the ring finger of her left hand. Ada also hopes that her luck will be better.

If worn on the thumb, it is usually a symbol of power and status. The index finger means that you are unmarried or has the idea of ​​getting married. Willingness to live alone.

The meaning of wearing a ring on the ring finger of the left hand should be the most familiar to everyone. It is the finger closest to the heart, so it represents the meaning of being married.Ada is just a 14-year-old girl, how could she be married, and she wears it on her ring finger just because it is more comfortable and does not delay anything.

Ada caressed the ring, and didn't feel any change in herself after wearing it. Things like vitality and willpower are really not easy to visualize. You can't add a blood bar to Ada's head!

In addition to the reminder about the ring, the system also has another reminder about Apparition, because she followed Professor McGonagall in the accompanying apparition, so Ada has now mastered this method of movement, but the degree of mastery is not high That's all.

Mrs. Mary, who was lying on the bed, frowned even more. Ada had experienced this feeling of hopelessness before, so she could empathize with her. She stretched out her hand to gently smooth Mrs. Mary's brows, like someone else had done to her before. Same as I did.

I don't know if it was because I felt Ada's presence, or the savage growth just now played a role, Madam Mary's ugly face turned a little rosy, and she also woke up from her sleep.

Mrs. Mary looked at the girl in front of her uncertainly. When she was sure that the person in front of her was Ada, her eyes lit up, she opened her mouth with difficulty, and said slowly: "Ada... are you here?" How is school going?"
