Analysis

The next scene shows Ryan watching Harry and the others rescue Regulus, who was Inferi, while Kate sits beside him, also 'watching' everything.

Before we knew it, two hours had passed.

"Harry Potter and his friends just brought Regulus, Sirius's brother, back so easily?" Kate said.

She even felt that this was not as difficult as dealing with the zombies in the Zombie Trail.

"Voldemort's skill level was never that great to begin with; he even forgot to guard against the magic of House-elf." Just as Ryan was making sarcastic remarks about Voldemort, he forgot one thing.

"Ryan, I just connected with your vision, and I think—it seems—maybe—perhaps I can read minds," Kate said with a smile, her brown eyes now restored.

Mind reading? Does that even exist?

"I think this is a distortion resulting from the combination of my power and your power, which may be related to a field that the current Wizarding World has not yet explored." Ryan said, looking puzzled.

"Oh, even if you can read minds, I won't get angry about it."

"I would be happy instead, so you don't have to play the fool between Penelope and me like before."

"Oh, and Hermione Granger too."

"Perhaps there's also Phoebe? I remember you reading Penelope's letter for a long time when we were at the Vampire Castle in Romania three years ago."

"I just remembered that Phoebe was in Penelope's photo." Kate said, puffing out her cheeks.

Ryan cleared his throat. "Phoebe? Do I know her?"

"Phoebe and I are also pen pals."

"She once complimented you, saying you were a gentleman," Kate pressed on.

She always felt there was something between Ryan and Phoebe. She could understand why Ryan was handsome; perhaps she had seen his photos.

But if we're talking about gentlemen, I've definitely had some contact with them.

"I remember now, it was last summer, weren't you busy then?"

"Penelope and I went to France to learn Alchemy," Ryan said, as if he had just remembered.

"But Penelope and you went to a wizarding village around the Pyrenees Mountains in the south of France, while Phoebe's family lives in Paris," Kate, wrinkling her nose.

Showcase your talents as a woman – look for details and dig up old grievances.

"Isn't Phoebe a student of Beauxbatons? Beauxbatons is in the Pyrenees Mountains."

"By the way, Penelope was taking a nap at the hotel at that time. I met her nearby. She was going to see their principal, Ms. Olympe Madam Maxime, about her sister Gabrielle's enrollment."

"You know, she's Half-blood Veela, so getting into school is a bit difficult for them." Ryan's eyes seemed to be flashing with reminiscence.

"Although I don't know when Gabrielle's birthday is, she's at least 5 years old now, maybe 6 at most."

"I remember Beauxbatons also started school at age 11."

"Did I remember wrong?" Kate looked at him with an expression that suggested she was being stupid and had misremembered.

"You're not mistaken."

"Gabrielle is very attached to her sister and wants to go to school early to be with her," Ryan said, squinting.

He wasn't just making things up.

Gabrielle is that kind of little devil.

Even in the original timeline, she was 8 years old and hadn't yet enrolled at Beauxbatons when she accompanied her sister to Hogwarts as a member of Beauxbatons.

"Fine." Kate said with a look of disdain.

"Is Mr. Delacour's gift ready? It's Phoebe's father's birthday soon."

"I think a pair of platform boots would be perfect," Kate said casually.

"Yeah, I think so too." Ryan nodded, while Kate beside him had a look of delighted satisfaction.

But the next second, Ryan looked confused. "But why do I need platform boots? Is Mr. Delacour very short?"

"Alright, I'll pretend you don't know," Kate said with a straight face.

She genuinely pretended not to know that Ryan had met Phoebe in Paris and had also met her family.

This is where her biggest flaw lies – Ryan hasn't even met her and Penelope's family yet!

"Oh right, you almost made me forget about today's exam."

"The first question: what magical traps are in Voldemort's cave?" Ryan suddenly realized.

He said that Kate was deliberately picking a fight today, something that Penelope would normally do.

The reason he had Kate link his vision was to use the location where Voldemort hid the Horcrux as a topic.

As for the images of Harry and his friends in it, they were just for entertainment.

"I forgot, maybe next time," Kate said, squinting.

"You should have seen everything from Harry and his group destroying the Horcrux to finding Regulus, the Inferi," Ryan prompted.

With Kate's skill level and the help of Ryan's magical vision, she should be able to analyze the effects of those magical traps.

Even if attention is focused on Harry and his friends' adventure, their conversations reveal everything.

"Okay, let me think about it."

"I'll divide that cave into four parts for now: the entrance, the lake, the island, and the stone basin."

"First, its entrance is physically difficult to enter. Without magic, entering this cave requires extremely skilled rock climbing techniques, because the ship cannot get close to the cliff. Second, from a magical perspective, let me think back, it seems to be Transfiguration? When I 'saw' it, it seemed that the cave entrance required blood."

"I understand. The difficulty with that cave is that it's hard to find, and once found, you have to offer your blood," Kate said haltingly.

"Good, and then what?" Ryan said sternly.

It wasn't to get revenge on Kate for causing trouble.

No, that's not true!

"Secondly, that lake."

"There are Inferi hidden in the lake. I can see invisible threads spreading from those densely packed Inferi to that thing in the stone basin. I think any attempt to grab the Locket will cause those Inferi to become agitated."

"And the only way to cross that lake is by taking that invisible boat," Kate said after a moment's thought.

"Oh, why not? Why not a flying broom?" Ryan challenged.

Kate clenched her fist. "That lake is filled with a lot of darkness, a sinister magic."

"Apart from the boat, everything above that lake will be subject to a downward force, as well as the reaction of the Inferi," Kate said.

"That's right. Even if you're using the latest version of Nimbus 2001, you'll only be able to drift by as slowly as a snail."

"With the lake's blessing, the Inferi can even jump up and pull you down," Ryan added.

"As for that ship, it seems to sense the magic of its passengers, and there's a threshold," Kate said.

"Not entirely. To be precise, it was enchanted with a spell that only allowed one wizard to ride it at a time."

"However, if you bring along Magical Creatures with relatively weak magic (compared to an adult wizard), or Muggle, it will not violate the spell."

"That's why Voldemort needed a House-elf at the time."

"Although it's possible for a wizard to be underage, in Voldemort's eyes, a wizard's life is precious," Ryan added.

"Muggle-born too?" Kate asked, puzzled.

"Yes, without the Mudblood he talks about, who will this self-proclaimed noble wizard rule?" Ryan said sarcastically.
