Hogwarts: Wizards of Eternity

#152 - Chamber of Secrets and the Basilisk

"Harry has been picked up."

After the school's welcoming dinner, Roger did not go to the dormitory to rest with the others.

He still had some other things to discuss with Dumbledore.

The Sorting Ceremony?

Nothing much to say, the Weasley's little sister Ginny went to Gryffindor, Luna still went to Ravenclaw, just like in the original timeline.

"Well, what do you plan to do about the basilisk?" Roger wasn't too worried about Harry's situation, Dumbledore would surely handle it properly.

Roger came this time mainly for the Chamber of Secrets issue.

During his first year, Roger's main focus was on figuring out immortality, and after Christmas, he was perfecting the Three-Dimensional Magic.

The basilisk in the Chamber of Secrets didn't make any movements in the first year, and Roger didn't bother with it.

But this year is different. He wants to use the Time Illusion Travel Curse within Hogwarts to view the past of the four founders of the school, so he naturally has to go to the Chamber of Secrets.

"If possible, it's best to relocate it." Dumbledore replied after thinking for a moment.

After all, it was left behind by the founder, and it's better to preserve it if not necessary.

"However, you said the entrance to the Chamber of Secrets is in the girls' bathroom?" Dumbledore recalled something from many years ago.

Before, because the opening ceremony had many things to be busy with, Roger was mainly talking about Harry's affairs, and the Chamber of Secrets was only mentioned casually.

Now he's starting to talk about it in detail.

"Yes." Seeing Dumbledore's expression, Roger knew what he was thinking.

Without waiting for Dumbledore to ask, Roger directly gave the answer: "Myrtle was killed by the basilisk, and it has nothing to do with Hagrid's spider."

"The basilisk was released by Voldemort."

Within Hogwarts, there have always been some ancient legends passed down from generation to generation, such as Gryffindor's sword,

Merlin's entanglement with Slytherin House, and so on.

Slytherin's Chamber of Secrets is also one of the legends. It is said that the founder Slytherin was not satisfied with the other three founders' advocacy of 'education for all'. He only hoped to provide magical education for purebloods and those with talents beyond their bloodline.

He naturally couldn't twist the arms of the other three people alone, but he left a backup plan, which is the Chamber of Secrets. It is said that the person who opens the Chamber of Secrets will be Slytherin's heir and will use the power in the Chamber of Secrets to cleanse Muggle-born wizards within Hogwarts.

—— In Harry's original fate trajectory, his second year will revolve around the incident of Voldemort's Horcrux diary inducing Ginny Weasley to open the Chamber of Secrets and release the basilisk, embarking on another adventure.

During this period, several students will be petrified, injured, and almost die, and Dumbledore will also be heavily criticized by the outside world for this.

Roger felt that perhaps it was during this period that Fudge saw through Dumbledore's soft side, realized Dumbledore's emphasis on "rules," and began to become ambitious, wanting to break away from Dumbledore and work independently.

What a legendary wizard who defeated Grindelwald and overcame the mysterious man, he's just an old man who doesn't even dare to flip the table.

From then on, he no longer wanted to listen to Dumbledore's command.

"Sure enough, Hagrid he — — — —" Dumbledore's expression changed.

Then he said: "Since the basilisk did that thing back then, then it cannot be kept."

As he spoke, a cold glint flashed in Dumbledore's eyes.

A basilisk and a basilisk that has killed Hogwarts students are two different concepts.

Just like in Muggle society, animals that have killed people are generally humanely euthanized, and the rules are similar in the wizarding world.

Just like the hippogriff that was originally destined to be executed for injuring Draco Malfoy in the Care of Magical Creatures class.

"Kill it? Fine." Roger had no objections to this.

"However, opening the Chamber of Secrets requires Parseltongue, and I don't know it." The translation alchemy item that Roger gave to Harry before is not a conceptual language proficiency.

It stores various language materials, which can be called upon when needed, equivalent to an in-brain translation APP.

It's not Doraemon's translation konjac.

Roger's energy is limited, and he won't spend time learning some minor languages that are troublesome to find and have nothing to do with immortality.

"The way to open the Chamber of Secrets is very simple, just say 'Open' in Parseltongue, and I can only trouble you then." Roger said.

Dumbledore is a language expert, and he has dabbled in niche languages such as Mermish, Gobbledegook, and Parseltongue.

"By the way, to prevent accidents, it's best to call a few more professors." After thinking for a moment, Roger urged again.

It has been more than two years since he crossed into this world, but Roger still doesn't know what version this world is.

He still remembered that when he first entered school, Draco and McGonagall's scenes did not match the movie scenes in his memory.

This Chamber of Secrets may not be as simple as he remembers.

It's better to be safe.

"That's natural." Even if Roger didn't urge him, Dumbledore would have the professors guarding outside.

"When the time comes, I will have McGonagall, Severus, and Nicolas Flamel present together." These three can be regarded as wizards who can bear Dumbledore's trust and are also powerful in combat.

"What about the time?" Roger asked.

"The sooner the better, let's do it tomorrow after all classes are over." Dumbledore is not a person who likes to procrastinate.

But today is really too late, and everyone has been busy all day and is tired.

"Okay." Roger nodded.

After finishing the business, Roger then brought up another topic.

It's about the Second Magic.

Roger had previously promised Hermione that he would talk to Dumbledore and Professor McGonagall to help her try different paths.

"That's nothing, but — —" Dumbledore frowned.

He doesn't reject teaching others his own spiritual power path, but teaching Hermione "Are you sure she should learn this now?" In Dumbledore's eyes, this is a bit too fast.

Hermione is only 12 years old, and it has been less than a year since she resolved the Three-Dimensional Magic.

Except for Roger's outrageous individual case.

Whether it's himself or Professor McGonagall, they have been immersed in the magical world for decades.

They have a thorough understanding of themselves and magic. Lacking this foundation, rashly learning spiritual power —

"I think she's qualified enough. It's better for you to teach her than for her to fumble around on her own." Roger then explained that Hermione had already developed her own dimensional magic and had begun to come into contact with the Second Magic.

"I see, I understand." Hearing Roger say this, Dumbledore understood.

Dumbledore sighed lightly in his heart. Although he was also a Gryffindor, the children of this house are sometimes really worrying.

Interacting with the minds of others, is that something to play with casually?!

Truly, ignorance is bliss.

"There's one more thing, I plan to teach my version of the Second Magic to a student." Since Hermione's matter has been discussed, Roger thought about it and also informed Dumbledore about another matter.

"Who?" Dumbledore's eyebrows, which had just relaxed, raised once again.

Learning the Second Magic cannot bypass the Three-Dimensional Theory, and he is too clear about the dangers of the Three-Dimensional Theory.

This kind of thing is really not suitable for dissemination at the current stage.

Regarding this matter, Dumbledore showed a more serious expression than when he heard about the basilisk.

"Luna." Roger said very naturally.

"You know, that child who was involved in the Fear Demon incident last year." Dumbledore was not at Hogwarts during the Fear Demon incident and went to the Middle East.

During that incident, Roger borrowed the power given by Dumbledore, mobilized some professors and students, and also talked to the Ministry of Magic.

Roger will naturally report this matter to Dumbledore after using someone else's 'things'.

"Her potential is very good." Roger's expectations for Luna are not low.

Roger has already completed the path to immortality.

The path to eternal youth can only rely entirely on Roger's own efforts.

Harry is the key figure for Roger to complete the path of imperishability. Roger plans to complete space-time imperishability with Harry.

And Luna, in Roger's eyes, her position is — — — immortality!

The path to immortality, Roger believes that a wizard who has developed perception to the extreme may be able to give himself a different inspiration!

"Of course, teaching Luna the Second Magic is currently just my one-sided idea. I'm just informing you in advance here."

"Whether to teach it or not depends on whether she is willing to learn it."

To be honest, many things in the Three-Dimensional Theory are not very compatible with Luna's personality.

Roger doesn't intend to do this by deception.

In the next two days, Roger plans to find a time to talk to Luna in detail,
