Chapter 80 - Hufflepuff's Test

After hearing those words, Chris' mind turned black. When he woke up, Prometheus was waiting for him. He smiled at Chris.

"Congratulations Chris. You have also passed the Ravenclaw test. You've done a great job," Prometheus said.

Chris nodded.

"How did Kristine do on her tests? Did she pass Ravenclaw?"

"Good news is that she passed the Ravenclaw test. The bad news is that she failed the Gryffindor test. Unfortunately, she didn't have what it takes to get Gryffindor to acknowledge her. Like I have said with Hermione, that doesn't mean she isn't brave. It's just not up to the standards of Gryffindor," Prometheus said.

"So now I'm the only one left," Chris said.

"Fortunately so because like I said, I honestly don't want to part with you guys just yet. Maybe after a couple decades I'll start to get a little tired of you, but as of now, you're a blank canvas and I'm waiting for a picture to be drawn," Prometheus said.

"It seems that I'm not a completely boring person after all. It's an honor to have a titan be so interested in me," Chris said a bit sarcastically .

"Enough with your sarcasm. Ravenclaw wants to speak to you as well," Prometheus said.

Ravenclaw's hologram appeared like the other two Founders.

"Congratulations Chris. You have passed my test. Fortunately, it seems that as a student in my House, the test wasn't so difficult. Having plans for every situation is the key to success. Making new plans when in an unexpected situation is just as important. Of course, there were some things that I would do differently, but you are worthy of passing," Ravenclaw said. Unlike Gryffindor, she didn't have as much words to say and her hologram disappeared.

"So are you ready for your final test?" Prometheus asked.

"It's the Hufflepuff test correct?"

"Yes and it is the hardest test. Many would think that a Hufflepuff test, if it existed, would be easiest test of them all simply because her house is the most inclusive and the character traits of the people she accepts are things like loyalty, fair play, and patience, traits that people in other Houses would all most likely have. However, the diary has gotten what she wants deep within her heart and put it as a test and it has deemed it the most difficult test out of the four. Perhaps it'll be easy for you to pass because it all depends on the person,"

'I really wonder what the Hufflepuff test will be,' Chris thought as Prometheus continued to wait.

"I ȧssume that you're done resting up?" Prometheus asked.

"Yes. Send me to the last test. I'm sure that Hermione and Kristine are getting really nervous right about now," Chris said.

"Alright then. Good luck and I hope you succeed. I haven't had my fun yet," Prometheus said and Chris' world went black once more.

Back in the throne room, like Chris predicted, Hermione and Kristine were both getting more nervous. Hermione who stopped crying earlier has started crying again both because of guilt and fear for her life.

"What do we do Kristine? If Chris doesn't pass, we're going to die," Hermione said as she started to hiccup.

Kristine who was also about shed a tear wiped her nose and hugged Hermione. Hermione continued to cry on Kristine's shoulder while Kristine was patting her back trying to comfort Hermione.

"You've got good students in your House Rowena," Helga said with a smile.

"I agree," Rowena said with a smile.

"So Helga, please enlighten us on what your test might be," Godric said suddenly.

"If I am correct then the test should be about the ability to forgive," Helga said. "When I created my House, the requirements to enter were set to include everyone so I made my requirements very broad and long. However, the long list of requirements means that there are some traits that can sometimes be difficult to do and if my test is the hardest one, I think that the hardest trait is to be forgiving,"

"In the end, my test was deemed easier than just the simple act of forgiving?!" Salazar asked angrily.

"It's not that simple Salazar," Helga said as she shook her head. "Anyone can forgive someone for accidentally breaking their glass cup, but can just anyone forgive acts that are much more severe than just accidentally breaking a cup? Salazar, I'm sure that you know the answer to that,"

"Yes Salazar, I remember you chased down that man who hurt your wife," Godric said.

"That bastard deserved to die in my hands. However, if I am correct, you would do the exact same thing Godric. I'm sure that the anger you have felt towards Roman on that day would have made you kill him if not for the fact that he had already killed himself," Salazar said with a smile.

Godric's face turned red as he remembered the past, but he quickly regained his cool, but he didn't speak any further.

"So Salazar, I am sure that you know what I mean. Trying to pass a test where you have to forgive any random incident is extremely simple, but if that boy is able to forgive even when others find it extremely difficult to forgive, I will fully acknowledge him," Helga said.

"Let's see if he is able to do it. Like you said, the test is very difficult indeed. That boy will definitely struggle with his emotions," Rowena said as she looked the mirror in front of her.
