Hogwarts God of Ice and Fire

Chapter 102 The Basilisk as a Demon

Gryffindor common room.

Harry was telling Irina and the others that he promised Nearly Headless Nick to attend the Deathday Party, and invited the three of them to join him.

"The Deathday party?" Hermione said with interest. "I bet there aren't many people alive who can say they've been to one of these parties. It must have been an amazing experience."

Ron said with a little disdain: "Why would someone celebrate the day of their own death?! I feel very unlucky when I hear it..."

Irina, who is familiar with the plot, persuaded Hermione: "Wonderful is wonderful, but I bet you won't like the Deathday party. Maybe the ghosts use rotten food, covered with white maggots... "

Hearing Irina's words, Hermione and Ron shuddered at the same time as they imagined the scene.

"Irina, can you stop being so disgusting..." Ron complained.

Irina shrugged her shoulders and said, "Maybe it's true! The Halloween dinner on the eve of Halloween is one of the four most lavish dinners at Hogwarts Castle in a year. The food is definitely not to be missed! Harry, I suggest you turn down Nearly Headless Nick."

Seeing that none of the three of Irina wanted to go, Harry was a little frustrated, and said, "But I already promised Nearly Headless Nick..."

Irina patted him on the shoulder with a smile, and said, "Then don't worry, Hermione and I will bring you some food. Maybe there is really something interesting there?"

Ron nodded vigorously and said, "Yes, yes, I will bring you big chicken legs!"

It could be seen that Ron really didn't want to go to this so-called death day party.

Harry reluctantly gave up the idea of ​​inviting the three of them. In fact, after what Irina said just now, Harry didn't want to go to the so-called death day party.

But he promised Nearly Headless Nick, and he still has to do it.

So, at seven o'clock in the evening on the eve of Halloween, Irina, Hermione and Ron walked towards the auditorium in a happy mood. Only Harry, with a slightly depressed expression, passed the auditorium decorated with lights. Go in the direction of the underground classroom.

Along the way, Harry, who was already depressed, became more and more unhappy. On the aisle leading to Nearly Headless Nick's Deathday Party, there were small black candles lit, and these candles lit Harry's face. The light was gloomy, like a walking dead.

Moreover, the closer to the Deathday party, the colder the surrounding temperature, which forced Harry to wrap his clothes tightly.

At this moment, there was a piercing sound as if fingernails were scraping glass. It seemed to be the music of the death-day party. This kind of "yin music" made Harry's ears extremely tortured.

"My dear friends, welcome, welcome... I'm so glad you're here..."

Nearly Headless Nick's voice with infinite sadness came over, and Harry finally arrived at the Deathday party.

Under the foreshadowing of the previous things in the underworld, Harry already had no hope for this so-called Deathday Party. However, after seeing the long table full of food in the underground classroom, Harry immediately had a desire Thoughts of leaving.

The things on the long table on the beautiful silver plates are no longer food, big chunks of rotting meat, charred black cakes, and haggis filled with milky white maggots. And a rotten cheese covered in green hairs.

And in the center of the table, there is a gray cake in the shape of a tombstone, with nearly headless Nick's name and date of death spelled out in corpse oil-like icing.

It's exactly what Irina said, all these foods are full of maggots!

Harry immediately put on a mask of pain, and he didn't even have the mood to say hello to Nearly Headless Nick, so he quickly ran away in the direction he came from.

Even Peeves, who wanted to stop him, couldn't stop Harry who was running for his life.

In the auditorium, the little wizards of Hogwarts are enjoying delicious food on the eve of Halloween.

At this time, Irina saw Harry running all the way back from the underground classroom.

"Hey, Harry, why did you come back so early?! Isn't the death day party very interesting?"

Irina, who knew Harry's experience well, asked jokingly.

Harry still had a mask of pain on his face. He snotted and cried, and complained: "Stop talking, Irina, your guess is really accurate! That's not a place for people to stay!"

After listening to Harry's story about what happened just now, Hermione and Ron cast grateful glances at Irina. If Irina hadn't helped them rein in the precipice, they would have foolishly followed Harry to that so-called Deathday party.

"Harry, if you don't eat any more, these things will probably be replaced with desserts later."

Irina looked helplessly at the bitter Harry and reminded him.

Hearing this, Harry was startled, and quickly sat down beside Ron, and even grabbed the big chicken leg that Ron had just got in his hand, and stuffed it into his mouth.

It's a pity that Harry came back too late, and before he even took a bite, the delicious food on the table disappeared in just a few breaths, replaced by pudding and other exquisite desserts.

The grief-stricken Harry had no choice but to take these desserts as his main food, and stuffed them into his mouth in big mouthfuls.

But just as Harry was cramming, a voice that only he could hear rang in his ear.

"...tear you...tear you...kill you..."

The sudden cold voice almost made Harry choke himself to death, he choked several times before looking at Ron, Irina and Hermione beside him in horror, and asked, "Did you hear that? There is a voice that says to kill!"

"What sound? Harry, you..." Hermione was taken aback.

Harry interrupted, "There's that voice again...don't talk yet!"

"... I'm starving... It's been a long time... Killing... It's time..."

The cold voice rang in Harry's ears again, but Harry found that Irina and the others seemed completely unable to hear the voice.

The sound became weaker and weaker, and Harry could feel that the owner of the sound was moving upwards, but the ceiling above the auditorium looked like a starry sky, and there was no one there at all, unless the other party was someone who could pass through the wall the ghost.

"Follow me! That person must be up there!" Harry immediately got up, trying to stop the owner of the voice from killing people.

However, Irina held him down.

Irina glanced at the desserts that had disappeared on the long table, and the little wizards around who got up and were about to return to the common room, and said, "It's not normal that you can hear voices that we can't hear. , besides, all the students have already gone in the direction you said, and there is no shortage of you!"

Naturally, Irina knew that the voice she could not hear came from the basilisk in the Slytherin Chamber of Secrets in Hogwarts Castle.

And now, on the eve of Halloween, it was the first time that basilisk left the secret room to be a demon!
