Hogwarts Lion Girl

Chapter 64 Destroying the Diary

A strong murderous intent and hunger spread from the basilisk's bloody mouth, and the diary fell accurately into the mouth of this monster that had lost its sight but was still terrifying.

The basilisk's jaws snapped shut, biting hard, and the air seemed to be torn apart. Its fangs were like sharp blades, piercing straight through the fragile paper. The venom spread across the pages of the diary, turning into a flower of death, blooming on the paper.

The corrosive power of the venom caused the edges of the paper to turn yellow. Wisps of black smoke emerged from the diary, carrying a pungent chemical smell.

Under this fatal penetration, the words written on the paper became distorted, gradually blurred and disappeared, as if they were erased along with their stories.

"No!" Tom Riddle's voice, full of disbelief and despair, suddenly rang out in the Chamber of Secrets. It was like the wailing of a cold wind in a storm, or like the last flash of broken glass in the faint light.

A human figure made of black mist slowly rose up in the diary, then gradually faded, and finally slowly dissolved into the surrounding environment, becoming an elusive shadow.

As his outline gradually disappeared, his existence seemed to be torn away from the fabric of reality, along with his memories, power and anger, turning into phantoms.

The basilisk seemed to be stunned by the voice of its former master, and Snape took the opportunity to cast a spell and hit the basilisk in the head.

The basilisk's huge body trembled violently at first, and then, like a mountain about to overturn, it slammed heavily to the ground with a dull sound, accompanied by a roar of pain.

Blood and tissue fragments mixed together, forming a messy bloody scene.

Salina whispered to Harry, "Go ahead and give the basilisk the final blow."

Harry was stunned and was about to ask himself how to deal the final blow to the basilisk. His magic was like a tickle to the basilisk and could not penetrate the basilisk's hard scales at all.

But at this moment, his fingertips seemed to touch something strangely cold and hard.

Harry's heart skipped a beat, and a feeling of nervousness and anticipation spread in his heart.

He lowered his head, and his eyes met the sword hidden in the Sorting Hat.

The sword exuded a brilliance that was impossible to look directly at in the dim light. Every inch of the silver-white sword body seemed to be polished from countless stars, and the ruby ​​inlaid on the hilt sparkled with a bright and mysterious light.

As Harry carefully pulled the sword out of the hat, the blade met the air, and the shining light instantly became more dazzling. The light on the ruby ​​also became vivid at this moment, as if they were whispering, telling the ancient legend about Gryffindor's fame for courage and justice.

Salina looked at the sword and whispered, "The Sword of Gryffindor."

Harry put the Sorting Hat in Salina's hand, holding the Sword of Gryffindor, and walked towards the basilisk step by step.

At this moment, the professors stopped at the same time, and seemed to agree to give the "head" to Harry.

Harry's arm exerted force, and the sword of Gryffindor flashed with cold light, like a lightning that cut through the darkness, fiercely piercing into the body of the basilisk. The blade made a dull sound as it penetrated, as if it had passed through many obstacles and finally touched the fatal spot.

The scales of the basilisk were completely cut by the sword, and the bright red flesh burst open, revealing the bones underneath that shone with a cold luster. The tip of the sword moved, bringing up a puff of blood, which splashed like a fountain.

But the basilisk, which had already been seriously injured, could only utter a weak and painful roar, and then it died completely and stopped moving.

……

In the principal's office, the group began to sort out everything.

They watched as Dumbledore wrote "Tom Marvolo Riddle!" and then, in a flash, it became "I am Voldemort!"

Harry exclaimed in a low voice: "So he is Voldemort! Then the memories he showed me were all fake! Hagrid was framed by him!"

Dumbledore smiled and reassured him, "Don't worry, I have written to Fudge. Hagrid will not be sent to Azkaban."

Harry breathed a sigh of relief, then he looked at Dumbledore and handed the Sword of Gryffindor back to him.

"Headmaster, does this mean that I am a qualified Gryffindor?"

Dumbledore patted Harry's head and said, "You have always been a good boy."

After that, a group of people left the headmaster's office one after another. Harry stayed at the end, seeming to be hesitant to speak.

Dumbledore asked gently, "What's wrong, Harry?"

Harry lowered his head and said, "I'm sorry, Headmaster. I feel like I'm very similar to Voldemort in many ways..."

Dumbledore nodded and said, "Yes, you are both equally smart and excellent, but that doesn't mean anything. From the choices you made, it can be seen that you are different. You are a good child."

Harry looked at Dumbledore with some emotion, "Headmaster..."

At this moment, another person pushed the door open and walked in. It was Lucius, followed by Dobby.

Harry's eyes widened, "So you are Dobby's master!"

Lucius glanced at Harry and ignored him. Instead, he walked up to Dumbledore and said, "Albus, if I remember correctly, you seem to have been dismissed as the headmaster. Why are you still here?!"

Dumbledore smiled and said, "We have resolved the issue of the Chamber of Secrets. The danger to the children has been eliminated, so the school board has decided to reinstate me as the headmaster."

Lucius was surprised. "What? How could it be! Those bastards..."

Harry stared at him angrily and said, "You were the one who put this diary into Ginny's cauldron in the bookshop."

Lucius glanced at the torn diary on Dumbledore's desk with a guilty look on his face, and said forcefully, "What nonsense are you talking about, little brat?"

Then he threw back his cloak and turned away.

"In that case, I won't bother you any more. Dobby, let's go."

Harry looked at Dobby who was being abused, and couldn't help but turn to Dumbledore and said, "Headmaster, can I take this diary?"

Dumbledore nodded, "Of course, you can take it."

"Thank you!" Harry said and quickly chased after him.

Salina stood on the balcony on the second floor and watched Harry play a trick on Lucius and successfully free Dobby, the house-elf.

Then she turned and walked towards the greenhouse. The mandrake was ripe today, and she planned to go to Professor Sprout to help Hermione recover from her petrified state as soon as possible.

……

At night, the starlight was sparse, only dimly illuminating the lights in the corridors of Hogwarts.

The wind outside the window blew gently, causing the curtains to sway gently.

Hermione walked quickly, almost running through the dim corridor, straight to the dinner hall.

The moment she opened the door, her eyes sparkled with impatience.

Serena watched Hermione hug Harry warmly, then smiled and shook hands with Ron.

famous scene.

Later, Hagrid returned safely, and with Dumbledore's announcement, the grand dinner began.
