Homecoming from Hogwarts

The warm sunlight poured into an office at Hogwarts a thousand years ago.

On the playground, the laughter of the little wizards and the clear chirping of birds from the Forbidden Forest blended into a cheerful and peaceful melody. Gryffindor held the rim of the teacup with one hand and looked out the window, seeming to be enjoying the tranquility of the moment.

At this moment, the other three people in this office all have their own thoughts.

Slytherin glanced at the complacent Gryffindor, his downcast eyes revealing hesitation.

He knew what Rowena and Helga were doing.

Although these two ladies were careful and attentive, the secrets they tried to hide could not be hidden from his eyes.

He also knew why Rowena chose to hide this matter.

If Rowena Ravenclaw and Godric Gryffindor got married and gave birth to offspring, then the prominent families in the wizarding world would definitely erupt.

This will undoubtedly bring severe challenges to the newly-born Hogwarts. In comparison, Rowena's choice is more wise.

Although her choice would bring her criticism and shame, the wizarding world would feel more at ease with Hogwarts.

just
The Slytherin raised his eyebrows again, looking at Godric who seemed to be unaware of the situation.

Rowena's choice was most unfair to Godric.

"Do you know what secrets the Ravenclaw ladies and Hufflepuff ladies are hiding, Amosta?"

Dumbledore asked, interested.

Amosta noticed that Dumbledore used the word 'hidden', and obviously noticed something.

This is not surprising. It is hard to say in terms of magical power, but in terms of life experience, he is the most experienced guy in this office.

After a few pauses, Amosta said softly,

"Helena Ravenclaw."

Dumbledore was slightly surprised.

"Ms. Ravenclaw's child will be born during the journey of the two ladies, Ravenclaw and Hufflepuff?"

"In fact, the child's father is Gryffindor, but based on the special form of the wizarding world at the time and the delicate status of Hogwarts, Ms. Ravenclaw decided to conceal this fact and fabricate a Muggle father for the child--"

Amosta felt quite sad.

This answer was unexpected yet reasonable. Dumbledore nodded slightly, not showing any surprise at the answer to this eternal mystery.

In fact, he was more concerned about the affirmative tone in Amosta's voice when he mentioned this matter. This undoubtedly proved his guess again.

The wonderful experience they were experiencing now was probably not the first time that Amosta had experienced it.

"I heard"

Slytherin gently shook the teacup, and the blood-red tea soup began to ripple.
"You recently recruited two new students?"

The carefree look between Gryffindor's brows disappeared immediately. He glanced at Slytherin with an expression like a fighter ready to accept a challenge.

"Yes, very talented children. Are you going to accept them into your academy, Salazar?"

"You shouldn't do this, Godric."

Salazar Slytherin raised his head, his expression somewhat gloomy.

"Oh, Salazar—"

Godric shook his head, pushing a strand of sweaty hair from his eyes.

"When are you going to give up your old-fashioned ideas?"

Godric put down the teacup and stood up from the stool. Under the gaze of the three people, he paced back and forth in front of the floor-to-ceiling sliding window.
"The purpose of establishing Hogwarts is to break the concept of magic families and allow magic to be better passed on, right?" "I don't deny that."

The Slytherin said calmly.

"In that case, you shouldn't worry about the origins of those children anymore. If magic education is only open to those descendants of pure blood, then there is no point in opening Hogwarts, because those children can receive education from their parents within the family!"

Gryffindor said angrily.

"You should be patient and listen to what I have to say, Godric--"

Salazar Slytherin remained calm.
"What I want to tell you is that you shouldn't always snatch people from the Church. That will undoubtedly create new and powerful enemies for Hogwarts."

Well.
After a few seconds of silence, Gryffindor scratched his head.

"Oh, you're worrying about that. I'm not as stupid as you think, Salazar. I concealed my identity when I did it."

Salazar glanced at Godric, looking at him as if he were a fool.

"Oh, I can't just watch those children being executed by the Church, right?"

Gryffindor said guiltily,

"When I was tracking down that island with Rowena, she mentioned that she wanted to find a way for Hogwarts to discover those children who have awakened their magical talents before the Church. But over the years we have been working hard for magical education and preventing Helbo from returning to this world."

Stop Helbo from returning to this world?

The look in Dumbledore's blue eyes began to wander again.

He turned his head to look at Amosta and saw a calm face.

Dumbledore moved his lips, but in the end, he said nothing.

"Speaking of Rowena——"

Slytherin's eyelids suddenly lifted, and a sharp light flashed in his light green eyes.

"You plan to keep going like this?"

Gryffindor, who was pushing the window, was stunned for a moment. He did not expect Salazar to break this layer of window paper so suddenly.

Gryffindor's expression fell silent. Slowly, he turned around and silently gazed at the bright world outside the window.

There was a deep sadness on that rough, square face.

"You are more of a wimp than I thought, Gryffindor—"

Salazar said calmly,
"Isn't the criterion for admitting students to the academy you founded based on fearless courage, Godric?"

Amosta had seen Godric Gryffindor twice in her memory.

He was deeply impressed by the indomitable spirit shown by the founder of Gryffindor House in his first two journeys.

Just like the image of Godric Gryffindor portrayed by wizards thousands of years later.

Therefore, when this majestic wizard showed such a sad and helpless expression in front of him, Dumbledore and Amosta were quite surprised.

"I respect Rowena's choice, Salazar—"

Godric said in a hoarse voice, he was facing the window, and Sarah couldn't see his expression clearly.

But what he said shocked Salazar!
After hesitating for a while, Salazar narrowed his eyes and looked at his good friend, his mind racing.
"You know something about Rowena, don't you, Godric?"

"Everything you know about Rowena--"

Gryffindor turned his face away, his smile still sad.
"I know everything, Salazar." (End of this chapter)
