HP: Let professors walk towards the light

"The curse left a lethal magic in your body. After you die, your soul will be absorbed and used by the person who left the curse. You will not be reincarnated." Korra looked at Reina with pity. "Your parents finally resolved the curse, but it's a pity that they can't come back. Poor child, you've worked so hard."

"You know? Then why would I..."

"I proposed it, of course I know it, child. I also knew that you would come to me. That was the magic your parents created with their lives. But, it shouldn't have come to this. What on earth happened to you?" Cora looked worried.

Misent and Snape both looked at Reina. Reina seemed to understand what Cora meant. She just smiled faintly and said, "Maybe for 'faith' like my grandfather did?"

"But thank you for telling me this. Otherwise, I'm afraid I would never know the truth."

"You think too much."

Cora took a sip of tea and said, "Even if you didn't come to find me, I would have come to find you. It just looks like I'm late."

"I'm fine, it's not too late." Lena said.

Cora was a little annoyed, "Isn't it too late for you to be like this now? If you do this again-"

"Korra!" Reina interrupted her, "I'm sorry, I'm really fine."

"You also said that you apologized to your parents, not me." Cora tapped the ground hard with the cane in her hand.

Reina lowered her eyes silently. "But, there are things I want to do and must do. Dad once said, do what you think is right, even if it means falling into the abyss. I think my father must think the same way."

"I knew it. Sure enough, I still don't like dealing with Talros. This is our fate." Korra shook her head and sighed deeply.

"What...are you guys talking about?" Micent came over and scratched his head.

"Why are you asking if you know it's a riddle?" Cora picked up her cane and hit Misent. "Does it have anything to do with you?"

"Why does it not matter?" Misent dodged Cora's cane. "Is there anything I can't know?"

“Sorry, this is a bit complicated…” Reina looked embarrassed.

"Who is he?" Cora suddenly looked at Snape.

"He is Professor Reina. Cora, are you getting senile? Didn't I just say that?" Misent asked doubtfully.

"That's not what I'm asking." Cora rolled her eyes at him.

"Then what are you asking?"

"It has nothing to do with you!"

"Why doesn't it matter?"

"you!"

"Okay, okay, Micent, just say less." Lena acted as a peacemaker again.

"Cora, this is my Potions professor, Severus Snape." Reina introduced.

Snape nodded at her.

"You lost something, it's better to find it back." Korra said calmly.

"What?" Snape was a little confused. He didn't quite understand why the topic suddenly turned to himself. He just accidentally eavesdropped when he came out of the basement...

Eavesdropping is risky, please be careful next time.

"It should be something very important to you. It may be far away or right in front of you. Of course, if you can't find it, I can help you." Cora smiled, and the wrinkles on her face were squeezed together.

"I don't know what you're talking about. I don't think I lost anything," Snape shrugged.

"It's okay. We'll just charge you for the overdue payment." Cora drank her tea calmly. She glanced at the man in the black robe out of the corner of her eye. Humph, this is quite interesting. She has seen a lot of excitement in her life.

"No, so I am the only outsider? How come you and he both have something to say?" Misent accused.

"This has nothing to do with you."

"Please, I brought you here."

"That has nothing to do with you, right?"

"I……"

?

At night, Misent and Cora were also let stay in the manor by Reina. Reina wrote a letter to Harry, saying that she hoped to visit him at his home to thank him for rescuing her from the Chamber of Secrets.

But Harry still lives in the Dursleys' house, and the Dursleys naturally would not agree to Harry bringing those weird classmates to their house, so Harry directly invited Reina to visit No. 12 Grimmauld Place next month, and he also invited Hermione and Ron.

Of course, Lena also wrote a letter to Dumbledore to give him a heads-up.

"Knock-"

On the first floor, Reina knocked on Korra's door and it quietly opened.

"Come?" Cora stood in front of the window. There was only a bedside lamp on in the room. The moon outside the window was hidden behind thick clouds, looking mysterious.

"How long?" Cora looked at Reina, serious and solemn.

"If you're asking about the time, it's been about 20 to 30 years," said Reina.

"Eh—" Korra sighed, "How many times?"

“This is the fourth time.”

"Wonderful, so wonderful." Korra walked towards Lena, stretched out her hand and placed it in front of Lena's face, as if she was sensing something.

"Did my father do this too?" Lena asked.

Cora put down her hand and said, "Your curse prevents you from living past the age of six. Your father has been looking for a way to break the curse since you were born."

"But your curse has not disappeared anyway, and your soul after death will become the nourishment of the curse wizard. There are more than one children like you who have been killed by the curse. Your father killed the evil man in anger, and the one who broke the curse turned into ashes."

"Your father said that was the most impulsive thing he had ever done, and his children had to pay for his mistakes."

Cora fell into memories, her eyes seemed to be blank.

"Your father loves you very much. You shouldn't be like this."

"I told you, I have things I have to do." Lena said calmly.

"Is it for that man outside?" Cora looked complicated, "Is it worth it?"

"He deserves it."

"He's old enough to be your dad, just an old man, worthless." Cora looked disgusted.

"My father doesn't mind, so why should you?" Lena said with a smile.

"How did he die last time? Tell me about it." Cora

“It’s a bit ridiculous to say that.” Reina was a little helpless, “I wasn’t paying attention for a moment, and I was taken advantage of and cursed.”

"I finally understand. Your physical condition attracts curses."

"You said before that my grandfather also looked for you. What did he want to see you for?" Lena asked.

"Haha, your grandfather came to me to support the justice in his heart, but that is already in the past. The Talros family possesses a very mysterious power, which is also the reason why your father can lift your curse and give you a new life. Your grandfather came to me to understand this power. It's a pity that I am not as powerful as he imagined, so I can't help him."

"Grandpa's justice?"

"That's what he wanted to do. Talros is full of stubborn people." Korra was also a witness.

"Listen, kid. The process of retrospection will damage the soul. This is a forbidden technique to escape death. The price is imaginable. Facing death repeatedly is also a price. You could have lived your life without injury or pain. Isn't that good?"

"originally?"

"Your parents' magic power can only support you to go back once at most. They sacrificed most of their power when you were six years old. Your father used the forbidden technique to ensure that you would safely reach adulthood, but it would never allow you to die and come back to life like you are doing now."
