Chapter 180: Chapter 183: Nagini, Open the Door, Your Old Friend is Outside
It was late at night in the headmaster's office of Durmstrang.
A three-to-four-meter-long snake was tightly coiled, its tail incessantly slapping the floor, seemingly in unbearable pain.
As its body twisted and writhed, layers of lace from skirts began to grow out from its body, making the scene appear particularly eerie.
"Ah..."
A pained female voice emerged from the snake's body.
Wilson's expression turned slightly peculiar. It wasn't a pure female voice, but because he was a Parselmouth, he could understand Nagini's words.
This was Wilson's reward for defeating Snape while disguised as Peter Pettigrew.
Honestly, Parseltongue wasn't very useful.
Wilson didn't feel anything special about it.
As the anguished groans continued, the snake's body contorted even more fiercely.
Its body twisted tighter and tighter, as if it were trying to bind itself into a ball, even wrapping its head tightly with its coils.
Just when Wilson began to worry that the snake might be attempting suicide, a pair of pale human feet suddenly emerged from the mass of writhing snake body.
The pale feet stood firmly on the floor.
"Ah... Ah..."
The groans from the snake grew louder.
Its snake body coiled upwards, revealing smooth, delicate calves, indicating that it was becoming more human-like.
Wilson slowly put away his time-turner, calmly watching as the snake's body continued to twist and deform.
A pair of graceful, round legs gradually emerged...
Above the legs, the coiling snake body continued to twist, forming a stark contrast that made the scene look terrifying even to Wilson.
As the transformation continued, a skirt suddenly dropped down. This floor-length skirt covered from thighs to ankles.
However, the skirt was made of semi-transparent lace, with a slit in the middle, making the smooth, white legs beneath it faintly visible.
Ignoring the coiling snake body above, the glimpse of long legs under the skirt was quite alluring.
"Mm..."
A woman's muffled voice emerged.
It was a human voice!
The transformation had produced a human voice!
As the groan echoed, the snake's transformation sped up, quickly forming a human shape from the legs up to the shoulders, with a large expanse of pale skin exposed on the chest.
Clearly, the transformation was complete.
Wilson watched as the snake body disappeared entirely, revealing a very beautiful woman.
She had long black hair and a delicate face adorned with heavy makeup. Her dark, blood-red lips couldn't hide her beauty but instead made her look more aggressive.
Dressed in a semi-transparent lace gown that barely covered her enticing figure, she was incredibly captivating.
"Nagini?"
Wilson frowned slightly, as if asking for her name.
"What...?!"
The woman looked at Wilson with hesitation, her eyes showing some surprise as she saw a gray-haired boy: "A... child?"
Her soft voice was in stark contrast to her terrifying ability to transform into a giant snake. She spoke with a bit of awkwardness, perhaps due to not having spoken in a long time.
Yes, it was Nagini.
Nagini looked at the gray-haired boy with a puzzled expression, her wariness slowly fading as she noticed his Hogwarts uniform: "A Hogwarts... student?"
Having visited Hogwarts before, Nagini recognized the uniform and knew a bit about the school. She knew Hogwarts had a Hufflepuff House.
After all...
When she was with the Hogwarts group, someone always mentioned Hufflepuff, where the students were known to be honest and kind.
What was that...
Nagini pressed her hands to her head, trying hard to recall her memories, but the intense pain overwhelmed her mind.
"Why don't you stop?"
Wilson raised his finger, casting a healing spell on her. The woman's painful expression immediately eased.
"Magic?"
She took a deep breath, looking at the gray-haired boy in front of her: "Who are you? A wizard? A Hogwarts student?"
"Yes."
Wilson spread his hands, calmly introducing himself: "Wilson Wright, Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, Hufflepuff House, third-year student."
"What's happening?"
Nagini looked at her body, hardly believing she could transform into a human again: "How did I..."
Her memories rushed back.
Due to the blood curse, she had completely lost her memory after turning into a snake. Now, as her body returned, memories flooded her mind.
Last time she transformed into a snake...
She thought she'd never be human again and had even said her goodbyes to her friends.
But now...
She was back.
She could become human again.
Nagini's hands gently touched her chest and body, fearing it was all a dream. Her eyes filled with tears.
"What year is it now..."
"1991."
Wilson propped his chin with his hand, watching the confused woman with interest.
"1991!"
Nagini's expression turned grim, showing signs of fear: "I remember... the last time..."
The last time...
It had been decades since she transformed into a snake...
Had she been a snake for decades?
"Yes, your curse took effect."
Wilson looked at Nagini, continuing calmly: "Nagini, at that time, your body could never return to human form..."
"..."
Nagini's expression froze.
Her spirit seemed to waver, her body almost collapsing to the floor, unable to believe the boy's words!
"That's impossible..."
"It's true."
Wilson picked up a newspaper from the table and handed it to Nagini.
"..."
October 29, 1991.
The date on the newspaper was accurate.
When Nagini saw the contents, her eyes widened, and she became despondent: "Grindelwald... still won..."
Yes.
It was news from Europe.
The newspaper reported a small country's minister praising Grindelwald, which left Nagini disheartened.
Grindelwald was still alive!
Nagini's hand loosened, letting the newspaper fall. She looked at the gray-haired boy with a dazed expression.
"Are you a Hufflepuff student?"
"Yes."
Wilson nodded, explaining casually: "Originally, you could never return to human form, but I temporarily neutralized the curse. I didn't want to communicate with a mindless snake..."
"You?"
Nagini frowned, confused.
She didn't quite believe it.
He was just a boy.
And a Hogwarts student.
But at least based on that, Nagini could trust him as a straightforward person. She had once interacted with Newt Scamander, a Hufflepuff graduate.
Seeing the boy's young face, Nagini's voice softened, clutching her chest: "You helped me... so you want me to do something... don't tell me you want me to... kill Grindelwald?"
"Something like that..."
Wilson tapped his fingers on the table.
Suddenly, Wilson's gaze turned to the door, a smile forming on his lips: "Open the door first; the owner of this office is back. He's your old friend. You can catch up..."
