HP: White Lord of Slytherin

Dumbledore was very happy to see Gloria's change, which showed that she had love in her heart. As long as there was love, she was not hopeless.

"Harry told me that you took away the basilisk in the Chamber of Secrets?"

Gloria nodded and reached into her school robes to take out the shrunken green snake. It coiled its body with its head hidden underneath. "When Salazar hatched him, he was going to combine it with Alchemy, but he left because of a conflict over the admissions criteria, so he temporarily left him to guard the school. Since the entrance to the Chamber of Secrets had changed, I followed Harry and found it."

"I didn't expect he could shrink his body." Dumbledore adjusted his glasses and asked, "May I know if Salazar really wanted to purify the school by keeping him?"

Gloria reassembled the Bagillisk. "Not entirely. Salazar does think that only pure-bloods are qualified to learn magic. He believes that Muggle blood will dilute wizards' magic. Moreover, even if Muggle wizards learn magic, they still belong to the Muggle world in terms of society. The Bagillisk is a key, a key to revenge."

"Revenge?" Dumbledore was puzzled.

Gloria looked around and said, "He also put a lot of effort into the construction of this school. If one day a Muggle wizard chooses to betray and tells the Muggles where the school is, the wizards here will definitely move away. Muggles are greedy for everything wizards have. When they find the secret room and dig it up thinking there is a treasure, Basil will kill everyone present to complete his revenge." She sneered and continued, "Rather than saying that Muggles are afraid of and hate wizards, it's better to say that they are extremely eager for the power of wizards. Muggles once tried to capture wizards and use some methods to obtain the wizards' magic, but they all failed, so they killed the wizards instead."

"There is very little information about the school's founders," Dumbledore said. "I didn't expect the story to be so complicated."

Gloria smoothed her school robes. "Times have changed now. Basilius no longer needs to carry out this mission. I have complete control over him. I will let him live in Slytherin Manor during the summer vacation. I plan to invite Mr. Scamander to visit the manor at a certain time. Is the headmaster interested?"

The silver-haired old man smiled and readily agreed, "Of course I'm interested. That's Slytherin Manor." He looked at the time again, "I'll tell the kitchen to prepare a midnight snack. The Great Hall will host a party. I'll give you guys extra credits then. Miss Slytherin, do you want to reveal your last name or keep it secret?"

"Just call me Gloria. Let's be open. I forgot to tell you that when Creevey went to the hospital wing that night, he ran into me and Bajirisk. Luckily, I ordered Bajirisk to open his nictitating membrane, and he was holding the camera himself, so he was just petrified. I was in a hurry to find someone to help, so I forgot to ask for the location of the secret room."

Dumbledore said, "Oh, about this matter, Ginny Weasley asked me to apologize to you. She let the basilisk attack you while she was unconscious. This was later told by the diary, and she was very upset about it."

"Oh?" Gloria didn't react. "I accept her apology, but she is very brave to talk to something with autonomous consciousness. Can I ask how this diary appeared in school?"

Dumbledore said: "Mr. Malfoy took the opportunity to put the diary into the girl's book during a meeting. I guess he didn't know the true purpose of the diary. He wanted to get rid of Voldemort's shadow while causing some trouble for the Weasley family."

Gloria didn't know how to comment for a moment, "It seems that after this incident, his position as a school director is no longer secure."

"Yes."

"I will join the school board." Gloria said, "I will invest a large sum of gold galleons to repair the castle, update the teaching materials, and the magic potion materials that are not available outside. Besides, my ancestor played a role in the establishment of this school, even though he left at the time."

"I will consider it seriously and tell the other directors." Dumbledore could only give this answer first.

At night, Professor McGonagall suddenly announced that the murderer in the Chamber of Secrets had been caught, Ginny Weasley was out of danger, and Headmaster Dumbledore had returned and decided to hold a party and invite all students to the auditorium.

The four colleges were all in an uproar, and the deans of each college went to the common room to inform them personally.

When Gloria came back, Draco was waiting for her. Seeing that she was back safely, he hugged her directly.

"You're really okay. I didn't quite believe it when my father told me that you were okay."

Gloria buried herself in his warm embrace. "Of course I'm fine. The principal will announce my identity at the party later. Let's go change clothes together."

"Really?!" Draco's eyes were filled with surprise, "Then I have to change into something new!"

The other students saw them being so intimate as if they were alone.

Zabini and the others looked at Pansy, and sure enough, the black-haired girl clenched her hands in anger.

All the Slytherin students were dressed formally, and the headmaster said that the murderer was not from their college.

In the dormitory, Tok designed a beautiful hairstyle for Gloria. The upper part of her hair was tied up loosely, with a braid hanging behind each ear and scattered hair on her forehead. She matched it with a custom-made gorgeous robe. This time, the Slytherin family crest appeared prominently on the left chest, and finally she wore the Slytherin locket.

After going out, Draco reached out his hand to her, and Gloria gently placed it on it and held it tightly.

When I got to the auditorium, I found that most of the professors from the other three colleges were wearing pajamas and had messy hair. They seemed to have just heard the notice and ran here. At this moment, only Professor Lockhart was missing from the professors' table, and the rest were all sitting there.

When everyone was gathered, Dumbledore raised his hand and shouted, "Listen to me for a few words."

The noisy voices gradually quieted down and everyone looked towards the stage.

"We had a difficult year this year, with several students and Sir Nicholas being attacked, but thankfully everyone persevered and resolved the Chamber of Secrets incident tonight."

As soon as he paused, warm applause broke out in the audience.

Dumbledore smiled and waved his hand again. He waited until it was quiet before continuing, "Several of these students made outstanding contributions to the Chamber of Secrets incident. They must be commended here."

Many people looked at the Gryffindor table.

"First, Miss Granger, she used her wisdom to find out information about the Basilisk in the Chamber of Secrets. I will give her fifty points for Gryffindor."

The Gryffindor table immediately cheered.

After they calmed down a bit, Dumbledore started to mention the next person. "Next is our Mr. Weasley. He and Mr. Potter bravely went into the Forbidden Forest to inquire about the truth of fifty years ago and went to the Chamber of Secrets. Mr. Potter bravely faced a product of dark magic that could bewitch people's hearts and saved Ginny Weasley without hesitation. They will each get 200 points."

Gryffindor was more than three hundred points ahead of second-place Slytherin, and Gloria could feel the low pressure around her.

When the place was quiet again, Dumbledore looked towards the Slytherin table, which attracted everyone's attention.

"Finally, I would like to thank Miss Slytherin from Slytherin College. She entered the Chamber of Secrets and took away the basilisk, preventing it from causing more damage. She also destroyed the product of the dark magic that launched the attack and saved the lives of Mr. Potter and Miss Weasley. I will give her 400 points!"

There was no applause or cheering this time.

The hall was so silent that only the sound of everyone's gasps could be heard. All eyes were on Gloria. She was calm and composed. Draco beside her looked at her with pride.

The girl, who was being watched by the whole audience, stood up and said, "I'm sorry for hiding my real last name. My real name is Gloria Slytherin, the direct heir of the Slytherin family. Please give me your guidance in the remaining years—"
