Chapter 539 Helga: Salazar, don't do this, I'm scared

After the laughter, Helga told her favorite student seriously that Les Lint was a very opinionated person, and your "invitation" might not be successful.

"Unless you wrap him up with stones and sand, but - ha - I advise you not to do that." Helga felt that if she chose to take action, her stupid student would definitely be severely punished by Salazar.

He might not even be able to beat Salazar's two beautiful apprentices.

"I will persuade him well." Cedric did not change his decision because of his teacher's words.

"It's up to you." Helga shrugged.

If Salazar was so easily persuaded, the four of them would not have been so stiff back then.

After Cedric left the office, Helga started to work at her desk again.

This time, after the student left, she used magic to make a magnifying glass for herself.

"It's really hell, my eyesight is getting worse day by day, is there any magic in the world to enhance the eyesight of the elderly? Damn, why are these guys saving parchment so much?! The words are too small!"

Helga's complaining voice echoed over the office.

To Helga's great surprise, at six o'clock in the evening, Cedric pushed open the door of the office on time, and behind him was Les Lint.

Helga's eyes widened.

"You, do you have something to do?" She felt that Salazar must have come to her by chance.

Cedric and Les' faces showed confusion at the same time.

Les glanced at Helga, and then asked his own question: "Are you old and confused? You asked me to come at six o'clock tonight!"

Cedric nodded repeatedly on the side. He was also quite surprised that the task was completed so smoothly.

"Well... yes, but-okay, you come to help me handle some orders." Helga felt that Salazar was probably up to no good, and he was planning to do something bad in secret!

So after thinking about it, the order she assigned to Salazar was the kind that did not require precious materials.

"You can give me a more complicated task, my craftsmanship is not worse than Diggory."

Hearing Salazar's words, Helga believed in her judgment more: this guy is here to mess things up.

So she immediately responded: "Thank you for your kindness, but you should complete the task I assigned to you first."

Les shrugged his shoulders and said no more.

For the next few hours, Helga was anxiously waiting for Salazar's "trick", but to her surprise, Salazar actually sat there and made a lot of doll accessories for her.

This made Helga confused: Is this really Salazar?

When the clock hand on the wall passed the number nine, Cedric stretched his body, and he was a little thirsty and took a glass of honey water from his teacher's desk to moisten his throat.

In the end, he didn't get what he wanted, because the honey water prepared by Helga was a little too sweet, and it was the clear water that Les made for him that quenched his thirst and choking.

After this brief episode, Les said that he would stop here tonight and he would come again tomorrow. Then he and Cedric left Helga's office together.

Helga sat alone in a chair behind the desk, frowning.

Although the scene just now was what she wanted to see, such a "well-behaved" Salazar really made her feel extremely unfamiliar.

'Why is he doing this? ' Helga couldn't figure it out.

She even checked the parts made by Salazar - they were all qualified products without any quality problems.

In the evening of the second day, Salazar and Cedric arrived as scheduled and worked hard for her for another night.

The third and fourth days were the same. Sometimes even if Cedric didn't come, Salazar would come on time.

This abnormal phenomenon made Helga unable to sleep peacefully.

She took the time to talk to Rowena, but Rowena couldn't figure it out. She just told her that since Salazar was willing to help, why not let him do more work. This way you won't lose anything, and it can also involve some of his energy.

But the words of the old friend did not make Helga relax, and her spirit was always in a tense state.

Finally, on a Friday night, while Cedric was away, Helga decided to throw the question that had been weighing on her heart for a long time to Salazar.

"Salazar, why are you doing this?"

"Why?" Les stopped his work and looked at Helga in confusion, "Isn't this because of your-"

"It's really abnormal for you to work so hard!" Helga interrupted Les's words, "Tell me the reason, otherwise I can't sleep well."

"Because I'm your graduate student..."

Helga sneered loudly.

"Don't be funny, Salazar, I really should record what you said and play it back for you so that you can hear clearly what you are saying."

Les lowered his head and looked at the half-finished parts in his hands.

"If there is nothing else, I will continue to work. The workload tonight is relatively heavy."

Helga took a deep breath, as if she was angry.

"Salazar, don't do this, I'm scared, what happened?!"

Les put the semi-finished parts in his hand aside and looked at Helga seriously and seriously.

After taking a close look at his old friend's face, Les had to admit that her face had aged a little.

A year in the parallel world does not fall out of thin air from elsewhere. The sword of time did not leave many marks on him, Rowena and Godric, but it left deep scars on Helga.

After returning to the normal timeline, those wounds were temporarily covered up. But the damage caused by time will not disappear out of thin air, it will only be released at another time.

Apparently, now that the "wound" was exposed, it turned Helga's hair white at an alarming rate and the wrinkles on her face became more numerous and deeper.

She is aging rapidly.

The prophecy was correct.

"How is your health lately?" Les asked a question that seemed to have nothing to do with the current topic.

"It's very good." Helga said angrily, "I can still feel the freshness and sweetness of the food on my tongue. This is the greatest blessing to me."

"Really?"

"Of course -" Helga paused, but did not say the next words.

Because she also suddenly became aware of the details that she had ignored before: the increasingly insufficient energy, the deteriorating eyesight, and even the gradually deteriorating sense of taste - Godric had complained to her that the honey water was a little bit spicy, but she It feels just right.

Les saw the answer on Helga's face.

"I heard a very bad prophecy."

"Prophecy?" Helga's expression can be summed up in one sentence -

Are you kidding me?

Although she is a person who believes in prophecies, the current situation still makes her feel ridiculous.

"That's it..." Les told Helga about his experience in the divination class.

Les's words did not dispel Helga's doubts. She still had a hard time believing what Salazar was saying.   mainly because Salazar, you haven’t shown any talent for divination in the past! It’s hard for me to believe that you suddenly say something like this, right? I do feel that my energy is not as good as before, but Dumbledore is still alive and kicking when he is over a hundred years old. Why am I about to die in your mouth?

Helga suppressed the urge to beat Salazar, and kept thinking silently in her heart: He is doing it for my good, he is doing it for my good...

"Would you like to do a divination for yourself?"

"Can I tell myself a divination?"

Helga's rhetorical question silenced Les, because he didn't know either.

"How about I go find Rowena and Godric for a divination?"

Helga nodded, feeling that it was totally okay to give it a try.

Anyway, I will definitely laugh at Salazar about this matter in the future.

After Salazar left, Helga dug out a book called "Clearing the Fog to See the Future" and then used the materials on hand to make a tea fortune telling for herself.

After quickly drinking the boiling tea, Helga squinted her eyes and studied the shape of the tea leaves.

"What the hell..." Helga, who turned around a few times and couldn't figure out the reason, lost her patience, put the tea cup aside, and continued to work.

Under the influence of the remaining tea, the shape of the tea leaves gathered on one side of the bottom of the cup gradually changed, becoming something like a black dog.

…

Les went to Rowena first. Although she sneered at Les's statement, she still performed a divination seriously.

In terms of divination postures, her movements and steps are impeccable, like a true fortune teller.

But the result...

"A pile of rubbish. According to the divination book, this figure symbolizes good luck - do you think the four of us have good luck?"

Les was so angry that he laughed. With four thousand-year-old trees, don’t think so much.

After leaving Rowena, Les planned to go to the principal's office to find Godric.

Ask him for a divination, tease him along the way, and see how the "greatest principal" lives in the principal's office.

When he arrived on the eighth floor of the castle, he keenly noticed something. He immediately restrained his aura, cast an invisibility spell on himself and walked quietly towards the principal's office.

Before he reached the statue, he heard Godric's voice.

"Get out of the way, I'm here to help the great Salazar Slytherin get something!"

Les:? ? ?

Rumble - this was the sound of the statue giving way to the passage behind it, and Les was stunned on the spot.

No, buddy, what's going on with your password? Are you mentally stimulated and planning to die with me?

Les couldn't understand the significance of Godric setting such a password.

Godric folded his arms and fell into deep thought: He had tried it before in the parallel world, and this password could not open the principal's office, but it could do so when he returned to the real world.

How strange!

Suddenly, he felt that someone was secretly watching him.

Godric raised his hand and waved, and a fire dragon that filled the entire corridor roared through the corridor.

This fire dragon is full of Godric's magic power, and will not burn him when he encounters people. It will only send feedback to Godric, allowing him to find the person hiding secretly.

The same effect can be achieved by using magic wave, but the momentum is not as huge.

What Godric wanted was to be loud, because this would make the hidden people confused and more likely to be exposed to him.

But this time the person spying on him was very familiar with Godric, so Les was not moved at all. He restrained his aura, leaned against an open window next to him, and climbed out of the window.

He turned back after the dragon dissipated.

Godric was relieved after making sure that no one was hiding in the corridor.

He must not let anyone else hear what he said just now.

He walked quickly into the headmaster's office. The statue slowly rotated behind him and blocked the entrance again.

After making sure that Godric had left, Les walked to the statue.

After squinting and staring at the statue for a while, he suddenly had an idea and said, "Get out of the way, I'm here to help the great Godric Gryffindor get something!"

The statue did not move at all, and beads of sweat appeared on Les' forehead.

Oh no, it's not really against me, right? !

"Get out of the way, I'm here to help the great Rowena Ravenclaw get something!"

This time he changed someone, and the statue slowly moved.

Les:...

Godric seemed to be a little bit of a slap. He bet that the sentence just now could be used with Helga's name.

When he arrived at the principal's office upstairs, Godric was so scared that he almost knocked over the teacup beside him.

"You?! Salazar, you are-?" After a brief shock, he quickly calmed down.

Then he realized a problem: How did Salazar know the password to the principal's office? Did Rowena or Helga tell him?

Thinking of the fleeting sense of prying in the corridor just now, Godric had a very bad guess in his heart.

"Password?" Les had a half-smile on his face, "Do you need me to repeat it to you? The password of "come and get something"? "

The expression on Godric's face froze for a moment.

It's really you, Salazar!

"You are really good, Godric." Salazar complained to Godric, and then confirmed with him that this should not be the password of the statue?

Emotionally, he felt that it was probably not, but who knew if Gryffindor would suddenly go crazy?

"Of course not, what are you thinking! This is just-uh... Forget it, let's not talk about this, what do you want to talk to me about?" Godric wanted to explain that this was a password he had set up on a whim before, but when the words came to his lips, he realized that Salazar would definitely sneer at him, so he changed the subject.

Les didn't bother with him, and directly took out the materials and asked him to do a divination.

"Okay." Godric agreed very readily.

As long as we don't talk about the password, everything is easy to say.

Under Les's guidance, Godric completed the divination.

But when he was cleaning the carbon ash on the animal bone, an accident happened. Godric used too much force and broke the animal bone.

"This... can it still be used?"

Looking at the cracks that became a mess, Les shook his head.

This divination is considered useless.
