Chapter 1882 Please Embrace Death
"You didn't open it."
Rowena looked at the stone box placed in front of him by Maca, and after being silent for a while, he said something that seemed suspicious. But just judging from her tone, this is not so much a question, but more like a statement of a "front" fact.
When Maca heard this, Dang even nodded.
"Didn't you engrave all the words on it?" He pointed to the stone box and said, "'If you are not ready, do not open this box'-I have 'personally' written all your tests and plans. How can it be 'ready' when it's destroyed?"
"But you are not an 'obedient' person." Rowena looked directly at Maca, and said indifferently, "otherwise, you would not have repeatedly questioned the tests and clues I gave, and finally messed them up completely .”
"Okay, okay!" Maca spread his hands, "Then let me ask you now, can I open it?"
"cannot."
This time, Rowena's answer was very straightforward.
But after answering this way, she lowered her head again, looked carefully at the stone box on the ground, and said as if talking to herself while looking:
"I think you must be very confused and curious about what is in it, but unfortunately, I can't tell you any information about it... Do you know? The will was handed over to Helga later, but I also won't let her know what's in it, because..."
"...Because apart from the 'candidates' who have completed your test, opening this stone box will immediately trigger some terrible disaster, isn't it?"
Maca took her words and said what she wanted to say directly, and then Maca looked at her who raised her head again, shook her head and said:
"This is the only answer I can get when I have no clue—seriously, your stone box is just like the legendary 'Pandora's Box'."
"You are indeed very smart and confident," Rowena continued to look at him and said, but at the end, he hesitated for a while, "...a bit like me."
For Rowena, who is extremely intelligent, such an evaluation is already extremely high, and it can be said to convey the greatest recognition to Maca.
Because she could understand how difficult it was to make such a conjecture with such certainty without any reliable hints or clues, and with Haierbo's malicious inducement from the side.
After all, Maca really did not try to open the box.
If it were someone else, thinking that this stone box was most likely left by Rowena to deal with Hai Erbo, he probably couldn't help but open it for a long time.
However, after "praising" Maca in this way, she suddenly shook her head slightly, and said decisively:
"Unfortunately, being too smart may not be a good thing sometimes... Just like me, although I was young when I left this will, I can say with certainty that I will definitely die in the future. Even... Future generations will never know how I died..."
Having said that, she couldn't help but pause for a while, and then said bluntly:
"...And you, your ending will be the same."
When Maca heard this, he couldn't help but raise his eyebrows.
"Even your Eun won't know?"
"Yuen..."
mentioning her husband,
Rowena seemed to be stunned - she hesitated.
"No, he won't know... I won't let him know."
"But he knew," Maca shrugged, "and he told me later—but it's true, except for him, no one else knew how you died, and Hogwarts only announced that you were Died of serious illness."
"So, I finally told him?" Rowena murmured in a daze before sighing, "Sure enough, time can change a person, even I can't escape it."
"Yes!" Maca heard this, and couldn't help thinking about everything she had experienced, and then sighed the same way, "Besides, it's not just one or two people who can change time?"
Rowena looked at him and sighed, and then let go of this "little matter" that was actually not very important - although it was related to her death, she obviously didn't care.
And then, I saw her change the subject again:
"Anyway... smart young man, I think I have to ask you two questions. Can you answer me honestly?"
Hearing that Rowena seemed to want to get back to the topic, Maca actually lost interest at this time, because he already knew what he wanted to know from the other party.
After thinking about it, Maca inexplicably remembered the first time he entered Rowena's chamber.
"You seem to like to ask questions..." He smiled and said, "Okay! You can ask, but whether you answer it or not depends on the situation on my side - didn't you mention it just now? Time, A lot of things have changed."
Rowena listened, but just nodded noncommittally.
"The first question," she said directly, "Godric's sword, have you found an heir?"
Seeing the other party mentioning the sword of Gryffindor, Maca thought about it for a while, and then said frankly:
"There is one, but it's not yet ripe."
"Then the second question," Rowena continued, "out of respect for your wisdom, I want you to make a choice—are you willing to be permanently sealed by me, or are you willing to embrace death?"
To be honest, Maca was not very surprised when he heard the other party's two options that were somewhat "excessive". Because, in fact, he had already expected that he would face such a choice sooner or later.
However, the one who gave him the choice was Rowena Ravenclaw.
"'Embrace death'?" Maca looked at her still calm and pretty face, and said indifferently, "like you, did you choose to commit suicide?"
"That's right," Rowena also stared at him, and said slowly, "Because my plan was not thorough enough, I got you involved. It's my fault. I'm sorry...but I'm sorry. Man, you and I both deserve to die."
"Ugh……"
Maca was silent for a few seconds, and finally heaved a solid sigh.
"If my death can solve the problem, then my death is actually fine... But, do you really think that I can end all this by dying?"
"At least the disaster can be postponed for a few more years." Rowena said expressionlessly.
But Maca waved his hand immediately, and asked:
"This is just adding more uncertain possibilities to this matter! Royna Mira, aren't there enough factors that are difficult to control? When are you going to leave it?"
