Chapter 275: Chamber of secrets

Myrtles bathroom was rather primitive all things considered as the toilets and sinks were very primitive in functionality. The sinks were obviously an original part of the castle since they were basically magical water basins like those in his own manor on Ravenclaw island. The toilets however were definitely added on latter since the founders time didn't have them. Nick wasn't here for an architecture tour though and ignored most of the bathroom. "Come to mock poor helpless little Myrtle have you?" a feminine voice spoke up mockingly from nearby. Nick turned to look at the source of this sound and wasn't surprised to see the ghost haunting this bathroom acting like she was sitting on the stall walls.-nôvel binz was the first platform to present this chapter.

"Not at all Myrtle , I am merely here to use a secret passage hidden in this room." Nick said with a smile. Clearly his reaction to her sudden appearance caught her off guard as she went silent for a bit before snorting and leaving with a silver blush on her ghostly face. People like Myrtle were easy to deal with thanks to their almost paranoid levels of self depreciation that made them very uncomfortable when spoken to kindly or with respect.-

Nick folded the eighty foot long shed up by tapping it with his wand before storing it away in greed after transfiguring it into a small block of wood. He didn't have enough room in greed to keep it full sized after all. Once that was collected he walked forward ignoring the crunching of bones underfoot as he found the large metal door with various snakes carved on it alongside incredibly enough parseltongue runes. They looked like a bunch of squiggles meant for decoration but were in fact an actual written language.-

The words written on the metal door spelled out {Here stands the chamber of the great Salazar Slytherin , greatest of the Hogwarts four!}. Nick snorted at this egotistical sentence 'more like most notorious of the four' he thought before putting the parseltongue ring back on and commanding the door to open. The metal serpents retracted their heads one by one before the metal door swung open on it's own. 'Well at the very least the man knew how to make his enchantments last if nothing else.' he admitted as he stepped into the true chamber of secrets.-

It was cold and dirty but plenty of signs of it's previous glory remained as there were serpent statues lining the walls and burning green gubraithian flames cast light through the entire massive room. There was a stone walkway leading to a deep pool of water that sat under a massive stone face that was obviously Slytherin himself. On either side of the walkway were deep pits filled with water as well. Other than this however the room was fairly empty as there was nothing else within sight. Nick acted like he didn't notice the massive magical creature starting to move behind the statues face as he walked into the chamber.
