HP: Let professors walk towards the light

"As for why I woke up? Did you ask for my consent before you wanted to sacrifice me to revive yourself?"

Reina asked contemptuously.

"The Talros family will not work for a freak who only talks to himself, plunders and squanders the family property of his followers, tramples and uses Death Eaters like tools, and does not even know how to love."

"Rights, status, power, ask yourself, which one are you willing to share with others? You are selfish, ruthless, and violent. You are a half-blood who has perfectly inherited the bad qualities of your dirty and vulgar father. You still want to create a perfect world for pure-blood wizards? It's ridiculous. I think what Harry said is right. You are suitable to stay in this dark underground."

"Draco, Theodore, come here." Reina stretched out her hand and pulled Draco behind her.

"You didn't really believe him, did you, Draco? Theodore? If you were bewitched by his words and abandoned me to die, I would never let you two go even if I became a ghost."

Reina smiled gently, gracefully.

"How did you wake up? Answer me!" Riddle gripped his wand tightly, his eyes bloodshot.

"Didn't I tell you? I thought you felt it." Reina tilted her head.

"What?" Riddle asked confused.

"In theory, the more magic you absorb from me, the weaker I am, the stronger you will become. But the key is that the magic you use to materialize and stand here is all given to you by me. This is very simple. I just need to prepare some magic stones from great wizards. There are many people doing this kind of business in Africa. I bought quite a few. Oh, sorry, I forgot that you are only active in the UK, so you probably don't know this yet."

Reina covered her mouth and looked at Riddle with an apologetic look.

"you……"

"Do you think I'm really that stupid? After our first chat, I prepared the defense against the dark arts, and naturally I discovered that you were secretly absorbing my magic power."

"This is really—"

“Ahhhhhhhhhh!” A shrill scream came from the side, and Ron rushed out with a wand in each hand, “Get out of the way!!!”

While they were still wondering what was happening, a huge black shadow suddenly rushed over from behind him, and Ron directly knocked Lena and the other two to the ground.

The basilisk twisted its body and ran around ignoring everything. Many of the stone pillars in the secret room were broken. Even though Reina cast the Iron Armor Spell on several people in time, they had to dodge everywhere.

Harry was lying on the basilisk's head, holding tightly onto the sword of Gryffindor that was pierced into the basilisk's head. The basilisk tried to throw him off countless times but it only made the wound on its head bigger.

After a while, the basilisk let out a long roar and fell heavily to the ground.

Harry stood up with difficulty, pulled out the sword of Gryffindor from the basilisk's head, and gasped.

"No! What have you done!" Riddle was a little panicked when he saw the basilisk fall down.

"It's just... pulling a sword out of a tattered hat." Harry's tone was a little weak.

"Harry!" Ron ran over and supported Harry who was about to fall.

Only then did everyone see clearly the wounds on Harry's body caused by the basilisk bite.

"Haha, so what, you are going to die, Harry Potter! And I, I will be resurrected one day! But I am -"

A cry from Fawkes interrupted Riddle's arrogance, and it slowly landed in front of Harry.

"Ron, lay him down." Lena said to Ron.

"What are you going to do?" Although he was confused, Ron still gently put Harry down.

Fawkes walked forward and looked at Harry quietly, drops of pearl-like tears falling from his smooth feathers and landing on Harry's wounds.

Harry felt dizzy and drowsy, and suddenly the pain disappeared in an instant. Could it be that he was dead?

He shook his head and slowly opened his eyes. The darkness was no longer in front of him, and the secret room was no longer spinning. He saw Fox standing beside him with tears in his eyes, and his wound had disappeared.

"Get away! Damn bird!" Riddle pointed his wand at Fawkes.

With a "pop", Reina cast a disarming spell to knock the wand out of Riddle's hand and took it back.

"Phoenix's tears have a strong healing effect, Riddle, you lose this round again." Reina said in a light tone.

"You're right, I am Malfoy, but the only one I can be loyal to forever is the Malfoy family." Draco also raised his wand and stared at Riddle fiercely.

"So is Nott," Theodore continued.

"Hahahahaha, a bunch of kids who haven't even grown all their hair yet, you don't really think you can fight against the most powerful wizard in history? You think you can threaten me like this? What wishful thinking." Riddle's loud and cold laughter resounded throughout the stone chamber.

"We really can't do it, but we can still deal with your diary." Reina threw the diary at Harry.

Harry grabbed the basilisk's fang and stabbed it into the diary.

Suddenly, Riddle screamed in pain as if he had been severely injured, and the ink in the diary spurted out and flowed to the ground.

He curled up and convulsed, and Harry stabbed him several times.

There was a flash of light, and Riddle's screams stopped abruptly. He was dead. There was silence all around, and the basilisk's venom burned a hole in the diary, which was still hissing with black smoke.

"Harry, you did a good job." Reina smiled at him and looked at the others. "Also, thank you for coming to save me."

"Finally... it's over." Ron slumped to the ground. "You can't imagine how we escaped from such a big mouth." He pointed at the basilisk.

"Hey, Weasley, are you scared now?" Draco still didn't forget to talk back.

"Come on if you have the guts. If it weren't for us, you would have been eaten by the basilisk, you cowardly Malfoy!" Ron retorted.

"You guy!"

"Okay, Ron, we should go," Harry interrupted.

"We still need to find Blaise." Theodore said to Reina, "He was injured and didn't come in with us."

"Okay, wait till I get something."

Reina walked up to the basilisk and took out a glass bottle and fiddled with it.

"What are you doing?" Harry asked.

"I was kidnapped here for no reason. I can't go back empty-handed. Even the shed skin of the basilisk is medicinal."

After saying that, Reina broke off the remaining teeth of the basilisk and put them into the telescopic bag.

"Ew—" Ron looked at Lena with disgust.

"Tap tap tap——"

There was a sound of footsteps, and everyone turned around to look. A black figure appeared in their sight.

"Good evening - I thought maybe someone could explain what's going on here -"

Snape's low and magnetic voice echoed in the quiet stone chamber, striking everyone's spine and making them shudder.

"It seems that there is a friendship meeting between Slytherin and Gryffindor here? I came here at an unfortunate time."
