Chapter 116: Discovering the Chamber of Secrets

The two professors and the Headmaster approached the destroyed bathroom with quick steps.

As soon as they entered through the hole where the door once was, they were welcomed by a very angry ghost.

" Did you come to finish the job?!" She came flying and screaming but stopped when she saw the person who had just entered.

"You are not him...who is this?" Myrthel stared at the Headmaster.

"Myrtle, you may not remember me....I was just a professor back then but we talked for a bit... I am Albus Dumbledore, the current Headmaster of Hogwarts.

"Mmm...I don't think I remember you..."

"That's unfortunate, and I'm very sorry about what happened to your bathroom. You have my word that it will be restored, as soon as possible."

"Really?." Her expression changed.

"That would be.."

"But now, I really need to find the person responsible for this."Geett the latest novels at novelhall.combledore said with urgency in his voice.

"Can you tell me who did it?"

"You are going to punish the culprit?...he never told me his name. He was a cute boy with glasses and the most stunning green eyes I have ever seen..." the ghost recalled.

"Glasses?" McGonagall said.

"Green eyes...." Snape frowned.

"It does sound like Mister Potter..." Dumbledore declared.

"He better be expelled for this! I knew that boy was going to cause trouble...it is his son after all. But he went too far with this!" Snape growled.

"Severus!, control yourself. Harry Potter is nothing like his father in this regard. You would know this if you gave him a chance. He would never do something like for a prank if that is what you are suggesting." McGonagall pointed to him.

"We will reserve judgment until we have all the facts," Dumbledore stated to them before turning his attention back to the ghost.

"Tell me, Myrtle, what did Mister Potter do exactly."

"Headmaster, you need to see this." Snape Found something lying on one side of the bones.

"Snakeskin.." Dumbledore noticed.

"That's massive!, there are no snakes of that size," McGonagall said.

"If this is the place that I think it is...that is not just a snake." Dumbledore looked into the corridor.

"Stay behind me."

They walked through the destroyed passageway and saw what was left of the circular metallic door that was now embedded into the wall, as well as a pool of blood.

"This is all very recent..." Snape spoke.

They could still discern the intricate design with carvings of snakes on what was left of the metal door.

"This truly must be..." McGonagall muttered.

They ventured further and entered the main chamber.

The three of them gasped and stared in awe at the sight.

Even in its current dilapidated state. The Chamber of Secrets was a sigh to behold.

"This really is the legendary Chamber of Secrets," Dumbledore proclaimed in awe.

"Or what is left of it...it seems like a massive battle has been fought in here." Snape looked around at the cracka on the walls, the blood, and pieces of gore.

McGonagall screamed.

She was the first one to spot the body of one of the basilisk in the distance.

"Is that the Chamber's monster?"

"It looks dead..." Snape pointed out.

"Let's get closer to inspect it," Dumbledore suggested.

"What if is not dead?!" McGonagall exclaimed.

Dumbledore conjured a few big rocks and sent them towards its head.

The rocks collided and they then waited....no response.

Dumbledore moved his eyes to her.

"Fine...its dead..." McGonagall huffed.

"Be careful where you step... it seems like most of the floor has collapsed into that hole over there." he pointed at the massive hole in the middle. Not knowing that the giant basilisk was the one who created that.

Snape got closer and examined the creature.

"Merlin!, this is a basilisk.!"
