Chapter 24 – Next Steps

Introduction

Hello everyone, welcome to our Walkthrough for Chapter Twenty-four of Beyond Hogwarts: Volume One of Harry Potter Hogwarts Mystery. In the previous part, you were shocked to discover that Ruby was alive. You immediately demanded an explanation, and it turned out that Ruby knew who was behind all of this. She even set a Graphorn loose to attack you because you were on the right track. Ruby explained that faking her death was the only way to protect the person she loves, who is none other than the culprit who owns the quill. Eris, her girlfriend, was the one she was protecting. However, they had a terrible fight when Ruby faked her death, leading to their breakup. 

Afterward, you met with your boss, Flump, who wasn’t surprised to see Ruby alive since he had witnessed many strange things during his time at ROCC. Following a brief conversation, Ruby revealed that she knew the location of the cursed quill, saying it was in Red Cap Hole. Flump insisted on accompanying you, not wanting you to go alone. 

Upon arriving, you faced a battle with three Red Caps. You successfully defeated them and finally found the cursed quill in a nearby chest. You immediately went to the Research Lab to verify if it was the quill you were searching for, and fortunately, it was, meaning your case was resolved and finally over.

Then, Olivia arrived and told you she had found Jacob, who was waiting for you at the Hog’s Head Inn. Jacob wanted to apologize for disappearing and explained that he had time to think. Although his sight hasn’t returned, he is grateful to have his family—you and Olivia.
