Librarian at Hogwarts

Neil's application came to fruition, and Igno was very happy.

Just as they were about to leave, Principal Dippet stopped Igno.He said that there were some things that he wanted to talk to Igno alone.

In the principal's office, only Principal Ignat and Principal Dippet were left.

But this time there was something different. There was a reddish-brown-haired wizard on the portrait in the room.

Igno knew this wizard.

He's as famous as Hogwarts.

He is one of the founders of Hogwarts and the founder of Gryffindor, Godric Gryffindor.

"Igno, you may be wondering why I kept you here."

Principal Dippet said slowly.

"First of all, I have to thank you on behalf of the school. Thank you for notifying us of Septimus's actions last time."

Ignat smiled awkwardly, "This is what I should do. In fact, I think we may not have succeeded in stopping them... After all, they still brought the legacy of Slytherin in the Chamber of Secrets to the public. gone."

Dippet smiled lightly, picked up the tea cup in his hand, and took an elegant sip, "Protecting the safety of students is our biggest goal. You have provided a lot of help in this regard. Therefore, the school is grateful, It’s the reward you deserve.”

While speaking, Principal Dippet waved his hand gently, and a silver fluorescent key appeared in front of Igno.

"I think you may know that in the library, in the restricted book area that you are responsible for managing, there is a place that has been locked for many years."

Igno nodded.

Yes, Igno noticed this area from the beginning.

In fact, it is difficult not to notice this. After all, in the restricted book area, a chain suddenly appeared, and this chain just blocked off a space.

Igno actually tried quietly, but he gave up quickly.

He was sure that without the key, it would be impossible to open the chain.

"This key is the key to unlocking the chain."

Principal Dippet continued.

"This is also a reward given to you by the school."

"I believe that knowledge will always make people richer than vulgar money."

Ignat took the key and wiped it in his hand.

The material of this key is very special, cold to the touch, and unique magical veins can be seen on its surface.

"This is a very valuable gift."

"Thank you to the school for trusting me."

Igno said sincerely.

This gift from Principal Dippet is very valuable.

The Hogwarts library already contains many extremely rare books, and the books in the restricted book area, especially this blocked area, will only be even more amazing.

As for the secret room, Ignat told the truth, but he did not confess that he could open the secret room.

This is also a selfish intention of his.

After all, the existence of the secret room is a very secretive matter.

And now if it is known that someone can open this secret room, Igno will definitely cause himself a lot of unnecessary trouble.

"The secret room..."

Principal Dippet kept tapping his fingers on the table.

In fact, he already knew about the Chamber of Secrets from Dumbledore, and the battle between Ignat and Gaunt and others in the Chamber of Secrets.

Principal Dippet is actually concerned about whether there are legendary monsters in the secret room.

He thought it was a creature that would put the school in danger.

"No..." Ignat hesitated. He did not see any monsters in the secret room. "Yes, Principal Dippet, I am very sure there are no monsters in there..."

Then Igno seemed a little hesitant again.

"Actually... I don't know if there is really any kind of creature inside..."

Ignat thought of the intricate underground pipelines. He felt that if a giant creature lived inside, it would be a very scary thing.

"The entrance to the secret room needs to be strictly guarded, Dippet."

The wizard in the portrait, Godric Gryffindor, finally spoke.

"Yes, that's what I'm planning to do."

Dippet glanced at the portrait behind him, and it was obvious that he already had an idea in mind.

Gryffindor nodded, his momentum like fire.

"Now, all we need to do is one more thing."

"About Slytherin, my old friend, the legacy he left behind..."

Gryffindor seemed to know exactly what Slytherin's legacy was.Ignat guessed in his mind.

Then, he asked tentatively: "Mr. Gryffindor, what exactly is that inheritance? I only saw a stone box..."

Gryffindor responded: "Igno, I think it contains a map. If my guess is correct, it is a map about ancient ruins."

Ancient ruins?

Igno's heart seemed to be hit hard by something.

Among the history books of magic, only the oldest history books contain a few lines of records about ancient ruins.

None of the history of magic textbooks currently used in magic schools mention ancient ruins.

This thing seems to have been deliberately hidden by some people.

"Yes, ancient ruins."

Gryffindor repeated.

"My old friend Slytherin once got a map about ancient ruins. Although it is dilapidated, with our efforts, this map was finally repaired."

Gryffindor's tone was erratic, and there seemed to be some nostalgia in it.

"It's just that due to some reasons... Of course you may also know that we didn't have a very happy time later."

"The map has always been with him."

"I think he hid it. In his later years, he once proudly showed off in front of me that he discovered incredible things through that map."

"The reason why I am so sure is because when we were sorting out his legacy, the only thing missing was the map."

When the Gryffindor had finished speaking, he had lit a long cigarette.

In the portrait, clouds of smoke rings spit out from his mouth.

"Then...is there anything in the ruins?" Ignat asked the question he was most concerned about.

Gryffindor was silent for a long time, until the long cigarette in his hand burned halfway.

"Slytherin showed off in front of me that there is an extremely mysterious thing in the ancient ruins. He called that thing: the Eye of Magnus!"

"He declared before me that the Eye of Magnus has the power to destroy."

"And he will find the Eye of Magnus. Then he will defeat me and make me his defeated enemy forever."
