HOGWARTS AND THE DARK SECRETS

CH-10 THE LESTRANGE FAMILY

On April 1th, 1990, it's April Fool's Day, and everyone remembers it well. Class is about to begin, and students are sitting in the Great Hall, which is a good thing as there are no conflicts between houses. Oliver, Xenophilius, and Bellatrix seem to be quite upset, with Professor Andromeda giving Oliver a challenging assignment, thinking he's very clever. They are talking, and Oliver is doing his homework. Meanwhile, Bellatrix is holding a newspaper, wondering if there's any bad news to read. She decides to read it and finds out that the Ministry has no information on "cyguns," but they recently discovered something related to it. Xenophilius, who was doing his homework, remarks, "After all this time, no cyguns." Oliver mentions that Professor Isabelle Black is very ill, and it seems to be kept secret. Bellatrix agrees that not many people know about it.

At that moment, a House Elf who serves the Malfoy family arrived in the Great Hall and stood next to Oliver. The House Elf said, "Malkin instructed me to give you this bag; it belongs to your mother. Malkin and your mom were very good friends when your mom was murdered, and this bag was in our possession. Malkin said you need to know everything."

"Has my mum been murdered? Oliver said."

The House Elf replied, "Yes, I saw it." "I'll go now. My master called me. Her name is Cassandra Malfoy, and she has two sons, Lucius Malfoy and Lucas Malfoy." After saying this, the House Elf disappeared.

Oliver, Bellatrix, and Xenophilius remained silent for a few seconds, and then Oliver opened the bag. Inside were four letters. Oliver took out one letter and began to read aloud, "Alaster Malfoy, I am Minerva Lestrange. My husband has committed 8 murders. The Ministry is investigating him. I am currently pregnant, and my husband is missing. Yesterday, I managed to save a Mudblood from a Pureblood witch. Professor Victoria from Hogwarts School, who is also a Pureblood, came to my house and told me that your husband killed my brother. I am desperate for revenge. I have waited for too long; I don't know what to do."

After two minutes of silence, Oliver spoke, "Two years after my birth, my mom was murdered." Bellatrix remained silent.

Xenophilius's face turned pale. Oliver took out another letter and began reading, "Hello, Isabelle Black. Professor Victoria has killed my husband. I am going to the Malfoy family with my son Oliver."

Another shock hit Oliver as he took out the third letter to read, "I, Isabelle Black, am giving this bag to the Malfoy family. Oliver's good father is dead. Oliver is 5 years old, and today, his memory has been wiped."

Everything has been revealed about why the Lestrange family is so popular."

Bellatrix replied, "Don't worry, we'll never part with you sometimes." Saying this, Xenophilius and Bellatrix hugged Oliver.

Professor Andromeda arrived there and said, "Oliver and you all, pay attention to your class; I don't know why the professors are making so many prophecies." Xenophilius asked, "Prophecies?" Professor David Oliverander said, "Yes, they are saying that a cyguns will come, there will be a murder, and a boy will discover his family's secret."

Oliver said, "Gone, this also means that my father committed 8 murders, and Professor Victoria killed my father."

Professor Andromeda's face turned pale. They hesitantly said, "Did you find out that I am also your mom's friend?"

"Yes, I found out, why did you hide it from me?" Oliver replied.

"Your Godfather had asked me to keep it a secret, and the professor also instructed us," Professor Andromeda said and then left.

Bellatrix said, "Oliver, Professor Isabelle Black is leaving the Great Hall."

Xenophilius sarcastically remarked, "I don't think anyone cares. Let's see if anyone actually cares, of course, no one cares." Oliver picked up the bag and showed that behind it, there were 28 names of pure-blood families written.

Obviously, mine and Xenophilius' family surnames won't be on that list because we are not from this country; we are Greek." Bellatrix said.

Oliver replied, "I know, I know."

A girl came and sat next to them, who didn't seem to be from the United Kingdom; her face had a slightly brown complexion, her eyes were green, and her hair was dark black. She smiled and said, "My name is Maya Chauhan, and I am from India. It was nice meeting you all."

Oliver responded, "Hello Maya, it was nice meeting you too."

Bellatrix and Xenophilius smiled at the girl whose name was mentioned. There was a piece of chicken in front of her, and she was looking at it with disapproval, probably expressing her dislike for non-vegetarian food. She said, "I don't even touch non-veg; I don't know how people can eat animals, it's so dirty."

"You are not from here, I know," Maya Chauhan added.
Maya Chauhan said, "Can I ask you something? Before anyone could answer, Maya continued, "Do you know my father came from India to England for work, and my mom doesn't know magic, but my dad does."

Oliver didn't feel like talking to anyone at this moment, but he had to respond, so he said, "That's good, Maya, that's good."

Mayank frowned, not sure what made him angry.

"I want to go to my class now, bye-bye," she said.

She got up and headed towards her classroom.

Oliver picked up the glass of juice lying next to him and started drinking it while thinking, "I have experienced so many shocks, and there's nothing, no God, no one. Just give me the strength to let everyone live happily."

Suddenly, a loud explosion occurred, and many the students ran towards the Hogwarts grounds, shouting in excitement.
