“Broken … broken?!”
Ravenclaw’s Diadem, the legendary magic item, was broken into two pieces!
Evan blinked and couldn’t believe it.
He stared in a daze at the rusty diadem. There was no magic on it.
As the diadem broke, Voldemort’s Horcrux living in it also dissipated and disappeared completely.
Now, this diadem was just an ordinary iron headband, as common as anything. If he didn’t know it was Ravenclaw’s Diadem, Evan wouldn’t even look at it.
He picked up one of the halves and watched it carefully.
Was the texture of this thing too fragile, or was the venomous Basilisk’s fang too powerful?!
It was important to know that when the Dark Lord made the Horcruxes, he cast very powerful curses on them to protect them from damage.
It was useless to tear up a Horcrux, smash it or grind it into powder to destroy it. Under the influence of magic, it would be restored as ever.
Therefore, something extremely destructive needed to be used, so that it could no longer be repaired with magic. The Basilisk’s fang was one of them, because the venom of the Basilisk had only one antidote, and that was the tears of the Phoenix.
Evan had intended to use the venom to destroy the things living in the Diadem. He didn’t expect that the decayed Diadem would be broken when stabbed with the sharp fang, just like an ordinary object without any magic.
He didn’t know what Voldemort had done to Ravenclaw’s Diadem, or was it just like this?!
Evan put the Diadem back on the table and waved his wand, “Reparo!”
There was a flash of red light, but there was no reaction. His magic had no way to repair the broken Diadem.
“Interesting!” Evan picked up the Diadem again and put it in his hand.
There was only one possibility for this to happen, that was his magical power was not strong enough.
What Evan needed to fix was far beyond his ability, that’s why the spell had failed.
In other words, Ravenclaw’s Diadem was not as simple as it seemed, and there were magical powers that Evan did not understand.
He knew that Voldemort had modified the Diadem to make it look ordinary. That was not what the Diadem originally looked like.
To restore it, Evan needed the help of stronger magical powers, such as the Philosopher’s Stone or the Elder Wand!
The power of the Philosopher’s Stone could not be used casually. It needed to be guided by a magical array.
In his recent research on the magical array of the stars above the Centaurs’ Temple and the magical array called Silence carved in the Silent Temple, Evan had made a lot of progress and gradually found out the correct way to use the Philosopher’s Stone.
But after all, he was just getting started, and he still needed time to carry out follow-up research. There was no way to use the Philosopher’s Stone in the short term.
There was only the Elder Wand left. It seemed that he had to go to Dumbledore.
Evan took the two pieces of the Diadem for further study. But if he couldn’t, he would go and find Dumbledore.
Anyway, there was enough time before the Merpeople’s next party.
Evan came out of the Room of Requirement, and changed it to a Chamber of Secrets equipped for potions. He went in again to check it out and put the potions and ingredients Caresius had given him.
All of these things had been stolen from Snape’s private store cupboard, and there were many precious herbs that were not suitable for carrying on him.
Then, Evan summoned Dobby and asked him to bring some food. He was starving now. After all, he had not eaten anything all day.
When Evan returned to the Common Room, Harry, Ron, and Hermione were still discussing how to breathe underwater.
There were a lot of books on the table in front of them, including Madcap Magic for Wacky Warlocks, A Guide to Medieval Sorcery, An Anthology of Eighteenth Century Charms, Dreadful Denizens of the Deep and Powers You Never Knew You Had and What to Do with them Now You’ve Wised Up, etc.
Hermione was trying to find a way to survive underwater, and Harry and Ron were discussing.
They were studying the possibility of deliberately infuriating Professor Moody and getting him to use Transfiguration on Ron.
“Evan, you’re back. Where have you been with Professor Moody all day?!”
At the sight of Evan climbing into the Common Room, the eyes of the three of them shined.
“Evan, do you have a way to breathe underwater?” Ron asked hastily, looking expectantly at him.
“Underwater breathing?!” Evan came over and sat next to Hermione. “It’s a good idea to use the Bubble-Head Charm.”
“Hermione said that the magic needs six years to learn,” said Harry. “Is there any other way?”
The three of them told Evan the secret of the Golden Egg as quickly as possible, even though he already knew it.
“You have to help me, Evan,” said Ron sighing. “Otherwise I’ll drown in the water!”
“Yeah, we can’t do anything about it,” said Harry. “We can only count on you!”
“Well, if the Bubble-Head Charm can’t work, you’ll have to use Gillyweed,” said Evan, seizing this opportunity to take out Gillyweed and hand it to Ron. “Just in time, I have this herb here. You can eat it before the task; it can help you breathe underwater for an hour, enough to complete the task!”
“Are you sure this thing works?!” Ron hesitantly stared at what looked like grayish-green rat tails.
“Gillyweed?” Hermione stared at it, too and suddenly something came to her mind. “I wonder where I’ve seen it … yeah … in Magical Mediterranean Water-Plants and Their Properties. I borrowed it from the library as a supplement to the Potions class.”
“Is this plant reliable?”
“Of course it works. When you eat it, it will give you gills and webbing between your fingers and toes, allowing you to swim with ease and breathe underwater. It’s one of the most amazing plants.” Hermione looked up at Evan. “I should have thought of it, but it’s very, very rare. Evan, where did you get Gillyweed?”
“Well, it’s my personal collection. You know, I have been cooking potions. I asked Professor Lupin to help me collect all kinds of rare ingredients … it happened to be among them,” Evan explained.
“So, you always carry it with you?!”
“Yeah!” Evan nodded. “My cloth bag extended by the Undetectable Extension Charm can hold many things.”
Looking at Hermione’s expression, it was obvious that she was suspicious. This girl was always very sharp with this kind of thing.
She and Evan looked at one another for a while, but she did not continue to ask.
As for Harry and Ron, they were still there studying Gillyweed, and there was nothing wrong with it.
They hoped they could successfully pass the second task, and Evan also hoped that he could get through Voldemort…contemporary romance
