Chapter 126 Gryffindor Records

"So, the magic on these pages is not protecting the words on them, but protecting the incomplete symbols in this corner."

George looked at the ancient magic words spelled out by Feeney and said,

Feeney nodded, and kept moving his hands, copying the symbols on these pages onto a blank piece of parchment, and converting them into other words according to the table.

Then an article appeared in front of the four people, written in universal script.

[In 987 AD, I and three friends founded this school together and named it Hogwarts. The main purpose of establishing the school was to protect the young wizards who were persecuted by Muggles and prevent them from suppressing their magic. Talented and became Obscurus died a violent death.

However, with the establishment of the school, some problems also emerged. We all have different personalities.

In my opinion, today’s era needs more wizards who have the courage to resist.

Rowena believes that wisdom is the most important thing for a wizard to grow.

Salazar felt that talent was more important. At that time, wizards with excellent talents were often descendants of pure-blood families, so he preferred wizards with pure blood.

Helga is the kindest among us. In her opinion, any young wizard deserves their help and education.

Because of our discordant concepts, we had a quarrel and eventually established four colleges to help each other and compete with each other.

As time passed, some Muggle-born wizards told other Muggles about the school, causing Hogwarts to face its first crisis since its establishment.

Although that crisis was successfully resolved, we also hid Hogwarts so that Muggles would not see, hear, or even detect it.

However, on the issue of recruiting Muggle wizards, the differences between us have become more serious. According to Salazar, since they can betray once, they can betray twice, three times or even more. He believes that we should not recruit pure Muggle wizards, but should focus on half-blood or pure-blood wizards.

After one of the most heated arguments we'd ever had, Salazar left school with a grumbling message.

'I sealed the Chamber of Secrets, and no one can open it again until my heir comes here. He will open the Chamber of Secrets, release the most terrifying things inside, purify the campus, get rid of harmful Muggle wizards, and protect Huo Gewoz. ’]

When he saw this, Li Qiaodan suddenly said,

"Wait a minute, wasn't the reason why Slytherin left the Chamber of Secrets clear of all Muggle wizards? Why does it say..."

Feeney nodded and said,

"If this is really something left by Gryffindor, then the rumors about Hogwarts for thousands of years are all wrong. Slytherin did not leave the Chamber of Secrets to clear up Muggle wizards, but to protect Hogwarts. "

After saying that, the four of them continued to watch.

[After Salazar left, I also began to reflect on myself. Indeed, it was too dangerous for us to allow anyone to join Hogwarts. Therefore, Rowena, Helga, and I jointly cast a spell on the school. A secrecy spell. No Muggle-born wizard can tell anything about Hogwarts to other Muggles. This spell is time-limited. We don’t think the current situation of wizards will last forever. Sooner or later it will improve. Yes, by that time, maybe wizards and Muggles can coexist peacefully.

Although we found a solution, there is still no trace of Salazar. We cannot find him. There is no trace of him in the places we have been before. It is as if he has disappeared from this world.

As time passed, the three of us grew older and could no longer look for traces of Salazar.

Later, Rowena's adopted daughter stole her crown. This was something I didn't expect. Rowena's crown had no effect at all. Later, Rowena proposed to save all the knowledge she had and wait for this When her daughter comes back, if possible, it would be good to leave some inheritance to the younger generations of the school.

This idea is very good, so I also left some things and hid them all in the Black Lake.

Helga also left some things, but not enough. I don’t know where she put them. However, when I think about it, when the younger generations are looking for the inheritance we left behind, it is also very interesting to continue taking risks through hard work and wisdom. 】

There is a long blank space after that,

[Rowner left anyway. Before she died, she did not see her daughter. Helga was very sad and locked herself in her dungeon and never came out again. I am also old. , I know very well that I won't live long, but there is still no trace of Salazar. Has he forgotten us? I wanted to wait for him to come back and apologize to him. If I hadn't been so tough, he wouldn't have left.

I cast a spell on myself, and it will take some time to take effect. After I turn into Animagus form, I can never change back, but it can give me a long life and let me protect this place forever. Slytherin Castle, waiting for the return of Salazar, I recorded all these things and put them in one of his favorite books. I am going to protect my inheritance and this castle. 】

There is no more content after that. Obviously, this is what Gryffindor wanted to leave behind.

"Wow, there really is Gryffindor's treasure!"

George and Fred said excitedly in unison,

Lee Jordan shook his head and said,

"Didn't you see that? That's not Gryffindor's treasure but inheritance, and it's in the Black Lake. We don't know the Head-Breaking Charm yet,"

Finny said,

"Even if we know the Head-Breaking Charm, it's hard to get to the depths of the Black Lake. You know, there's a tribe of mermaids in there, not to mention Grindylows, sea monsters with horse-headed fish-tails, Lobaworms and other creatures. Also, I suspect that the giant octopus in the Black Lake is Gryffindor."

"Ah?"

The three of them made a very surprised sound.

Finny nodded and said,

"According to the notes he left behind, he cast a spell on himself, trapping himself in the Animagus form forever, and allowing him to live forever to protect Hogwarts. The only thing that can meet this requirement is the octopus in the Black Lake. I have read the records that it has existed in Hogwarts for a long time. Octopuses can grow very large, not to mention living for thousands of years. Therefore, it is very likely that the big octopus is Gryffindor himself."
