A Magical Journey Starting at Hogwarts

Early the next morning, Aaron went to the library after breakfast.

The current task is to find the legendary secret room, but he knows nothing about the secret room and can only find the answer in books.

Aaron also asked Draco, but he only had a partial understanding.

Lucius once told him that the Chamber of Secrets was opened fifty years ago, but the person who opened the Chamber of Secrets was fired, and that time a wizard from a Muggle family died. Other than that, there were no other clues.

But he spent more than an hour without finding a book related to school history, which was obviously not normal.

Aaron frowned and approached the librarian, "Mrs. Pince, I would like to ask where there are books related to the history of Hogwarts?"

"Sorry, Aaron, you're late." Mrs. Pince said with some gloating, "When the library opened today, a group of wizards came over specially to borrow those books. Not a single one was left."

When Aaron heard this, he felt a string of exclamation marks floating above his head.

Damn, do you want to roll it like this?

"Are you looking for clues to the secret room?" Mrs. Pingsi asked meaningfully, "I was not there last night, but the matter was spread this morning."

"Mrs. Pince, do you know about the secret room?"

"I don't know, I'm just an ordinary administrator, I really don't know that much.

But I can tell you something else. Mrs. Pince lowered her voice, "The book about the history of Hogwarts does not contain the answer you want." "

Aaron blinked and said thanks blankly.

He didn't think Mrs. Pince was lying to him. This witch had been in the library for more than ten years, and her love and familiarity with books was simply outrageous.

I dare not say that she has read all the books here, but her knowledge of books is definitely the first at Hogwarts.

"Excuse me, Mrs. Pince."

"It doesn't matter. If you really want to know about the secret room, you can ask the professors at the school. They should have some clues."

Aaron nodded slightly, but he didn't have much hope in his heart.

The professors may know more than Lucius, but they may not know the key points, otherwise the secret room would not have been found today.

...

Transfiguration Classroom.

Professor McGonagall finished teaching the theoretical knowledge in the textbook and looked at the second-year students of Gryffindor and Slytherin sitting below.

Behind her are two blackboards with a parrot and a goblet painted on them.

"Attention everyone, today we are going to learn how to turn animals into goblets." Professor McGonagall walked up to a parrot, "Just like this, one, two, three, the appearance changes drastically."

A stream of transparent air was emitted from the front end of the wand, and the parrot instantly turned into a transparent crystal cup, without any characteristics of the animal at all.

The students below were in an uproar, full of interest in this difficult transformation technique.

"Now it's your turn, who would like to come first?" Professor McGonagall stepped off the podium and began to search for suitable candidates.

After walking around, her eyes flickered to Ron and Aaron, because they were the only ones in the entire classroom who brought pets for demonstration purposes.

But when she saw the tape wrapped around Ron's wand, the corners of her eyes twitched and she ruled him out.

"Mr. Gaius, come on!

One, two, three, the appearance changes drastically. "

"Um..." Aaron smiled hesitantly, "Professor, does this spell work on any animal? What will happen if I fail?"

Professor McGonagall was stunned for a moment. When he saw Abe lying on Aaron's desk and taking a nap, he suddenly realized that this was a magical animal with a certain degree of magic resistance. It would be bad if the magic spell bounced out.

"I'll give you another one." Professor McGonagall clicked on a cage on the wall with her wand, and directed an owl inside to Aaron, "Let's get started!"

Aaron raised his eyebrows and picked up his black wand, "The appearance has changed dramatically."

Silver light flashed on the wand, and the owl turned into a silver goblet with the Slytherin symbol wrapped around the surface.

"Very good." Professor McGonagall exclaimed, "Five points for Slytherin."

"Anyone else want to try?"

At this moment Hermione raised her right hand.

"Miss Granger, I assume you are also interested in this."

"No, professor, I just want to ask you something else.

Can you tell us a little bit about the secret room? "

Hermione looked a little unnatural, after all, the question she asked had nothing to do with transfiguration.

And after Halloween, the secret room is a sensitive topic. You can check it in private, but it is a bit embarrassing to ask this question in class.

Sure enough, Professor McGonagall's expression changed slightly, and she obviously didn't want to answer this question.

But the suddenly quiet classroom and the curious eyes finally made her soften.

"Okay!" Professor McGonagall began to pace slowly in the classroom, "Everyone knows that Hogwarts was founded more than a thousand years ago. The founders were the four greatest wizards at that time: Godric Gryffindor, Helga Hufflepuff, Rowena Ravenclaw and Salazar Slytherin.

Three of the founders got along well, one didn't.

Salazar Slytherin wanted Hogwarts to be more selective when recruiting students. He believed that magical education should be limited to magical families, that is, pure-blood wizards.

Unable to change the minds of the other three, he decided to leave the school.

According to legend, Slytherin created a secret room in the castle, known as the Chamber of Secrets.

However, he sealed the secret room shortly before leaving and waited for his true heir to return to school. Only this heir could open the secret room and release the terrifying things inside.

This would purify the school of those who, in Slytherin's opinion, were unworthy of learning magic. "

"Professor, do you know what is in the secret room?" Aaron raised his hand and asked.

"It is said that the things that live in the Chamber of Secrets can only be controlled by the heir of Slytherin. Some people say that there is a kind of monster living in it."

"Of course, school personnel have searched countless times, but no one has found the secret room."

After class, the students left the classroom in twos and threes.

Aaron looked at the notebook on his desk and sighed with regret, "It's so troublesome! But it can be considered a gain."

He listened carefully to everything Professor McGonagall said and wrote it down verbatim.

She had to admit that she knew a little more clues, but they were too complicated and needed to be sorted out carefully.

"Aaron, what are you looking at?" Draco came over and asked, a little surprised after seeing the contents in the notebook, "Why are you writing this down?"

"Nothing, I'm a little interested in the secret room."

"Secret room? That doesn't seem to have anything to do with you!"

"No."

"Then don't look for it. It would be bad if you are accidentally injured by the monster in the secret room." Draco advised, "According to legend, the unlucky ones are also those Muggle-born wizards. We pure-blood wizards are still safe. of."

"I didn't want to provoke that monster, I was just interested in Salazar Slytherin's Chamber of Secrets.

The secret base built by a Holy Magister, Hogwarts has been looking for it for so many years but has not found it, and it is full of mystery. "

Hearing this, Draco also became a little interested.

There will definitely not be only one monster in the Holy Magister's secret base, and there may be Slytherin's treasures.

But soon he couldn't help but shudder. Even if there were magic props or magic books, Malfoy couldn't covet them.

Unless the heir of Slytherin died and those things became ownerless, Malfoy would have a chance to fight for them.

"Looking at you like this, I know you're scared." Aaron joked, "But it's excusable!"

Draco smiled coquettishly and did not deny it.

"Then what clues do you have now?"

“It’s a mess, and we can only slowly unravel it.

You go to eat first! I'll think about it by myself. "

After Draco left, Aaron was the only one left in the classroom.

He picked up a piece of chalk, walked to the podium, and wrote down all the clues he knew on the blackboard.

The first is what Draco knows about what really happened: the Chamber of Secrets was opened once fifty years ago; the person who opened the Chamber of Secrets at that time was fired; a Muggle-born wizard died.

Next is the legend of the Chamber of Secrets that Professor McGonagall knows: only the heir of Slytherin can open the Chamber of Secrets; there is a monster in the secret room; the monster will eliminate all Muggle-born wizards.

The last he knew: the petrified cat; that Harry Potter could hear sounds that others couldn't; that the crime scene was filled with water damage.

Looking at these clues, the corners of Aaron's mouth rose slightly. His intuition clearly told him that the location of the secret room was among these clues, but it just took some time to find it.

But before looking for the secret room, you must also take protective measures. You have to guard against that monster!

Just as Aaron was thinking this, the system's voice sounded in his mind again.

[Kill the monsters in the secret room:

The reward for completing the task is 1000 magic points. There is no penalty for failure of the task. Does the host accept it? 】

Aaron: ...

Is this what he is doing?

"I accept it. Wealth is gained through danger. The worst I can do is try to give up halfway."
