I became Voldemort

Ever since Myrtle was killed by the Basilisk fifty years ago, this bathroom has been almost abandoned.

No one wants to use the toilet here.

It's not that they think it's unlucky, it's just that no one wants a ghost head to suddenly pop out of the toilet while they are using it, not to mention that the ghost will be chattering and crying.

Myrtle is extremely unpopular even among ghosts, second only to the evil-doing Peeves.

Over time, no one wants to use the toilets here.

Cyrus didn't see Myrtle when he walked into the bathroom. She had probably used the toilet to flush herself into the black lake again.

This is a good thing.

Cyrus walked to the sink, and the mirror on the sink reflected Ginny's lovely face.

Ginny's appearance cannot be said to be completely unrelated to that in the movie, it can only be said that she is more beautiful than the actress. In fact, she is much cuter.

He praised her cuteness and then found the copper faucet that did not produce water according to Riddle's memory. An inconspicuous snake was engraved on the side of the faucet.

{"Open!"}

Cyrus opened his mouth and let out a terrifying hiss. He inherited all of Riddle's talents, including Parseltongue.

Suddenly, the snake's head emitted a dazzling white light and began to spin rapidly.

Then, the pool started to move, slowly sank, and disappeared from his sight, revealing a very thick water pipe that could allow a person to get in.

Cyrus jumped down without hesitation. Of course, he did not forget to close the door to the secret room to avoid any accidents.

It was like rushing down a dark, slimy, endless slide.

He could see many more pipes branching off in all directions, but none as thick as this one. After a while, the slide was almost at the end. It was a black rock tunnel.

Cyrus cast a flying spell to levitate himself so he wouldn't fall to the ground.

He was flying without a broom. Just like Voldemort!

The rock tunnel is very humid and contains a lot of sludge. He himself prefers cleanliness.

"Lumos Solem!"

A huge bright light flew out from the wand and hung above Cyrus' head like a sun, illuminating almost the entire tunnel.

The tunnel leading to the secret chamber is dark and damp. It may be, because it is built under the black lake, so the stalactites above the head will drip a few drops of water from time to time, making the road to the cave very muddy.

Cyrus was glad that Voldemort had invented a flying spell, because it made him a little nauseous just to think that these water droplets dripping from the top of his head were connected to the Black Lake, and the Black Lake was where so much toilet excrement accumulated in Hogwarts. Yuk!

But in fact, not to mention that the self-purification ability of the huge black lake itself is enough to deal with the dirt, the process of water droplets seeping down from the soil has already filtered out the impurities.

Continuing to walk inside, he saw a huge monster, its width as big as an adult. The terrifying outline is vivid in the darkness. This is the snake king's snake slough, a layer of snake skin covered with treasures.

Voldemort looked down upon these things in the novel, but Cyrus found it a bit strange. After all, the basilisk has not been seen in the UK for many years.

Even if there are basilisks in other places, they may not grow so big or live as long as this one.

"We can find a way to take it away then!"

The skin of the basilisk itself has strong magic resistance.

Whether it is used to make armor, make *ehm*—wine—*ahem*, or use it as a potion material, it is very precious.

And it's not difficult to take it away from this place.

You just need to use the Invisible Stretching Charm to make a suitcase with a large space, and then find an opportunity to take it out of Hogwarts.

Doing that in the Christmas holidays would be a good idea.

After bypassing the huge snake skin and walking further in, Cyrus followed the tunnel, turning and coming out from one to another,

"Haa!" He finally found a solid wall in front of it, with two intertwined snakes engraved on it, and their eyes were set with big rings, sparkling emeralds were embedded in those rings.

{"Open!"}

Cyrus made a "hissing" sound from his mouth, which sounded like an evil curse. He was like the king of snakes, commanding everything from here!

The two snake figures separated, and the stone wall cracked in the middle, slowly sliding to both sides and disappearing.

Behind the door was a long, dimly lit room.

Many stone pillars carved with entangled snakes towered up to support the ceiling that melted into the darkness above, casting long and strange black shadows on the entire room that was filled with green and mysterious mist.

Cyrus took Ginny's wand and strode between the serpent-coiled stone pillars.

He was very familiar with this place, as if he had returned to his own home, and his footsteps produced hollow, loud echoes among the ghostly walls.

When he reached parallel with the last pair of stone pillars, a statue as tall as the room itself loomed before him, clinging to the dark wall behind.

"Not so handsome, heh,"

It was an old, monkey-like face, with a long sparse beard that almost reached the hem of the wizard's robe carved out of stone, and two large gray feet standing on the smooth floor of the room.

This statue was of Slytherin himself!

He knew from Tom's memories but- ewe~

Cyrus raised his head and looked up. The stone statue was ugly, but it didn't matter.

He was dead anyway. And compared to Slytherin's power, his appearance is no longer that important.

{"Speak to me, Slytherin - the greatest of the Hogwarts Four."}

Slytherin's huge stone face moved, and its mouth began to open, opening wider and wider, eventually forming a huge black hole.

Cyrus closed his eyes to avoid being accidentally harmed by the basilisk's magic.

Then, he heard something moving in the mouth of the statue, sliding upwards from the depths of the statue.

*thump!*

A moment later, something heavy hit the ground, and the entire secret room shook.

*hiss...*

He could hear its heavy body gliding slowly across the dusty ground.

Not long after, Cyrus opened his eyes again and saw the appearance of the basilisk with his own eyes.

Its scales were green, but they reflected a colorful luster.

Its huge body swam across the floor of the chamber, forming a huge circle around Cyrus. Finally, its upper body stood up from behind Cyrus. From there, eyes bigger than light bulbs floated above Cyrus's head!

This is proof of its obedience. The innate Parseltongue has the power to make snakes submit, but the acquired Parseltongue like Harry's is just a language.

After sleeping for almost fifty years, this is a new different moment in the life of the Basilisk, seeing someone inside the chambers. Now, it seems to have gained a chance to be reborn, and its terrifying magic power is swaying wantonly.

{"Quiet!"}

Cyrus ordered with a hissing sound.

The basilisk immediately bowed its head.

{"Haha! Don't worry, you will be able to move freely soon. But before that, we still need to be patient, Heh~"} Cyrus raised the corner of his mouth slightly.

He just came here today to see the status of the basilisk.

As for the attack on little wizards..? It will be postponed to the night before Halloween.

Halloween at Hogwarts would start to feel like it was missing something if something unexpected didn't happened.

After all, there should be a little horror show in this festival of ghosts, right?
