Ch. 348The Moving Maze (6)

Chapter Summary: “Moving Maze (6)”

Plot and events

Klein continues to outwit the Sphinx in the maze by treating its riddles as opportunities for deliberately absurd answers. After the Sphinx blocks him from proceeding and accuses him of failing three questions, Klein gives a fanciful explanation involving a wizard and a Parselmouth for why a cobra would not bite someone. He then provokes the Sphinx by insisting that, according to their agreement, it must lead him to the maze’s center and the Goblet of Fire rather than keep challenging him.
Enraged and humiliated, the Sphinx demands a life-or-death wager. Klein agrees, but instead of asking a conventional riddle, he poses a mathematics problem: determining the speed of a steamboat and the current from its upstream and downstream speeds. The Sphinx is completely unable to answer and bursts into tears. Klein declares that he has won and that the Sphinx’s life now belongs to him.
The Sphinx finally abandons its pretense of being a civilized riddle beast and attacks Klein, claiming his life for itself. Klein easily dodges its claws, removes the silver hair ring he has been wearing, and dispels the Transfiguration hiding the Basilisk. A terrifying dark-green serpent emerges, preparing to confront the Sphinx.

Character developments

  • Klein displays extreme confidence, cleverness, and theatrical cruelty. He deliberately acts innocent and frightened while manipulating the Sphinx, then escalates from trick riddles to mundane Muggle mathematics.
