(Gryffindor Tower, boys' dormitory.)
Harry wiped the broom in his hand as he recalled the scene he saw on the court today in his mind.
"Harry, why are you still up?"
"Can't sleep, our the next game will be our Quidditch match with Ravenclaw"
Ron replied in a daze, he didn't know what's wrong with Harry, he still didn't sleep and was with the broom in his arms in the middle of the night.
"Harry, you have to believe in yourself, you are the best Seeker, you will definitely beat Ravenclaw."
"If that annoying Grindelwald can beat the Seeker of Ravenclaw you can also do it."
Ron fell asleep while talking.
He didn't notice that when Lucas was mentioned, Harry's expression looked really annoyed.
"Yes, my father was the best Seeker, and I will be the same in the future."
"I will definitely prove that I am no worse than Lucas Grindelwald against Ravenclaw."
His gaze gradually became firm and when he looked back at Ron, he realized that his friend had fallen asleep again.
Harry put the broom away and stored it safely before going to bed: "I will prove it."
…
The eagle knocker issue didn't pose a problem for Lucas and after answering a simple riddle he carefully looked inward along the open door, making sure no one was in there.
He tiptoed into the Ravenclaw common room, which instead of a common room it is more like a library.
The walls are surrounded by bookshelves.
The roof is a vaulted transparent dome where at night, you can see the starry sky directly from there.
The decorations are in the same color scheme as other Houses, with their respective representative colors.
But Ravenclaw's Blue is matched with the starry sky of the dome, which adds some mystery to the whole room.
Although Lucas is a student of Slytherin, he still found it more comfortable than the Slytherin common room.
At least it's not so depressing.
Taking out the diadem of Ravenclaw, he walked step by step towards the only sculpture in the room.
According to Hermione, this statue of Rowena Ravenclaw was placed here right after the school was established.
Almost as long as Hogwarts has existed.
If Rowena really left her own Chamber of Secrets, it must be inseparable from this sculpture.
Coming closer to the sculpture, Lucas placed the diadem on its head with both hands.
Finding that the size of the crown and the sculpture is just right, Lucas is more sure of his idea.
There was a slight noise and it seems that a secret door has been opened somewhere.
Immediately afterwards, the bookshelf behind the sculpture began to change its position upside down.
The entire wall of bricks began to overlap each other and it quickly became a downward passage.
Taking a deep breath, he drew his wand and walked in.
He didn't know how long he walked, but there was finally a light ahead.
Lucas quickened his pace, but it still took him another three or four minutes to reach the exit.
Facing the bright light suddenly, Lucas, who was used to the darkness, had to squint his eyes.
He didn't open his eyes until he gradually got used to it.
What appeared in front of him was a garden and the amazing thing is that it is daytime here.
Lucas looked up, but didn't see the sun.
He guessed that the light source should be caused by magic or magic items.
Walking into the garden Lucas stepped on the soft grass, feeling that everything was a little unreal.
He walked to the depths along the road full of flowers on both sides and it didn't take him long to see a circular building.
The building has three floors, and its shape is very simple like a small tower.
~Squeak~
Pushing open the dusty door, the candlesticks in the house were automatically lit.
[Ding, congratulations to the host for obtaining a new achievement: Exploration — Rowena Ravenclaw's library, reward: 500 achievement points.]
[Detected that the host has completed a new achievement: explore Ravenclaw House; get a reward: 2000 achievement points.]
Sure enough, this is the secret room left by Rowena Ravenclaw.
Lucas stepped into the house, and there was a single book on the separate bookshelf on the right side of the door.
Since it can be placed here, there must be some ulterior motive.
Lucas opened this not very thick book, the first thing that caught his eye was the delicate and graceful cursive characters.
[For those who are destined, hello, when you find this library, I have probably been dead for a long time, please allow me to introduce myself first, my name is Rowena Ravenclaw.
Since you can come here, it means that you must be a thoughtful person, but please promise me that you will not use the knowledge inside to do evil.
Well, that's just my personal wish, anyway, I'm dead, so I can't control you at all, I just give you a piece of advice.
This is the library I built secretly, which collects most of the magic books from ancient times to the present. I believe you will like it.
Finally, please tell my daughter Helena that I love her very much.]
The beginning of the book is like a letter of introduction. Lucas turned to the next page, which introduced the location of the library in detail.
It's hard to imagine that this place is actually the deepest part of the Forbidden Forest, and neither human nor magical animals can detect it due to its magical protection.
On the next page, there are major events in the early days of the school recorded by Rowena Ravenclaw.
These include the quarrel between the Founders and the specific reasons as to why Slytherin left.
Closing this book written by Rowena Ravenclaw herself, Lucas turned and walked into the library.
Three floors, a large library with 360 degrees.
The collection of books inside is probably at least tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of books.
It's just impossible for Lucas to read one by one.
Fortunately, Ms. Rowena has thoughtfully marked the type on each bookshelf.
Lucas made a beeline for the dark magic area and saw a very interesting piece of information in a book by the name "Ancient Black Magic Records".
Curse of Blood Sacrifice: The user must be full of strong love, and after chanting the spell has to use his own magic power and blood to protect the loved one.
Note: Since it is a curse, those who are guarded will also have to bear the price and will not live to be fifty years old.
The rest of the content records how to continue the protective power of the Curse.
The method is similar to Harry's, requiring staying with the caster's blood relatives.
Lucas closed the book and solemnly put the book away.
Whether he can win Professor Snape's allegiance, this book and the "Secrets of the Darkest Arts" will play a key role.
However, Lucas has been searching for a long time in the dark magic area but didn't manage to find the book he needed.
It's not too early to find out...
Lucas had no choice but to hurriedly leave a space mark, turn around and walk out through the passage.
When he finally retrieved the diadem from the sculpture's head, the hidden passage gradually disappeared and turned into a towering bookshelf again.
"Lucas?"
Lucas was taken aback by the sudden voice behind him.
When he saw it was Cho, he was immediately relieved.
Seeing the childish pajamas on the girl, Lucas chuckled, "your pajamas look great."
Cho glanced at her current attire and her face immediately turned red.
Just when she was about to escape, Lucas blocked her path with a lunge.
"Cho, why are you still up so late?"
"It's not that it's your fault, but there were so many people watching at dinner, so how can I eat?"
Cho struggled a bit, trying to pull her hand out of Lucas' palm.
Finding that she couldn't pull it out, she just let him lead her.
The two came to the sofa in the lounge and sat down, Cho looked at the night sky and started talking.
"By the way, I signed up for the Dueling Club, intending to learn some useful spells to protect myself."
"Then you may be disappointed, Lockhart can't do anything."
"I know, but don't I still have you?"
She suddenly raised her head and looked at the boy in front of her seriously.
"I have discussed it with Hermione, and I will pester you until you teach us all the magic you know."
Lucas turned his head and looked into her eyes: "I know a lot, maybe I can't finish teaching you for a lifetime."
"Then we will haunt you forever!"
After they finished speaking, the room became quiet again.
The two listened to each other's breathing.
Gradually, slowly approaching.
"we can't!"
Cho stood up suddenly from the sofa.
With a flushed face, she exhaled and said: "you made me wait for a year, so you also have to wait! Humph!"
Regardless of the boy who is still sitting on the sofa.
In a panic, she ran to the dormitory and once she was back to bed a smile appeared on the corner of her mouth.
Lucas saw the girl run away speechless.
'seems like I shot my own foot'
He just shook his head smiling and left the Ravenclaw common room.
He had a great harvest tonight, and the biggest gain was not achievement points, but the room full of books, Rowena Ravenclaw's personal library.
This is a huge fortune.
Lucas, who was in a good mood, wandered all the way to the dungeons.
Just when he was passing the bathroom on the second floor, he suddenly heard the voices of Peeves and Myrtle coming from inside.
'Haven't they always been at odds?'
Lucas didn't delve into it, let alone that he didn't have the habit of eavesdropping.
Once he was gone, in the bathroom, Myrtle suddenly shouted angrily: "Why don't you believe it? I saw Grindelwald here last year."
"At that time, he was making a hissing sound like a snake in front of these sinks, so I think he must be the heir."
