curing delphini and her past

Alex told Cho to bring delphini to room of requirement, Cho brought her after classes and Alex asked," delphini, I can cure you, but I want you to get me something from the lestrange vault, is it possible?, don't worry I will cure you even if you don't agree.", delphini nodded and said," it is a cup right , I will help you get it from the vault".

Alex didn't think much as he know about the connection to horcruxes and told her stay calm while he asked Cho to not panic after this as he will faint due to over magic use, cho is puzzled at same time concerned about him.

Alex took out his wand, delphini shivered from this and Alex reassured her by saying he will separate the evil magic and don't worry about this, delphini just nodded while shaking, Alex cast ," purification " on delphini and felt his magic draining at a fast pace, he activated ring of sage magic recharge effect, delphini on the other hand felt warm and something like her weakness is pulling out of her, she didn't notice Alex sweating while casting this.

dark cloud like fog appeared out of her body and Alex touched it.

at this time the system sounded:

[soul shard detected. does the host want to exchange this for holy spring of life y/n].

Alex clicked yes before falling to the ground by over exhaustion , but he smiled as he can call dead souls and can revive them without visiting the underworld. Cho ran to him and said," Alex are you okay?", delphini who felt the warmth and relaxed by the spell also looked at Alex approached him.

Alex said," don't worry, I overused my magic reserves, it will take a few minutes to gain magic , just let me rest for some time, also delphini are you okay? try to feel the soul in your body and check if it's gone?" , although he knew the soul fragment is gone, he should atleast ask her about this.

delphini watched Alex with tears and felt guilty by thinking he is cursed by lifting the magic and apologized, Alex waved his hand and said," I'm really okay, this is due to overusing magic, don't worry, I'll be fine". Delphini relieved after hearing that and hugged Alex while crying , while saying ," I'm finally free, thank you Alex".

Alex recovered after a few minutes, then Cho asked," Delphini, can you tell us who are you really ? and how you got the evil magic on you?". Delphini lowered her head and asked," you'll hate me after hearing that, I can't tell that to you". Cho said," no, I'll be like your big sister , I won't hate after hearing your story, just tell us about it?".

Delphini told them," please don't tell anyone about what I'm going to say?". Cho and Alex nodded, the Delphini began to narrate her story about who her parents are, she said she is the daughter of Bellatrix and voldemort, this shocked Cho but Alex calmed her and asked Delphini to continue and she continued about her life.

she told them it's peaceful and harmonious until she is 5 year old, the people around her respected her and show affection until one day her father killed someone in front of her and used some magic to enter a black cloud into her body, though she is feared then onwards but after a year she heard her father is dead and her days of torture started.

her mom brought people into her room and torture them with magic, she is scared by their screams and sometimes her mom even killed them, then her mom began to give her a wand and told her to torture them when she refused she started yell at her, after a few days like that when she refused again her mom began to hit her, then she started torturing her with the same curse she used torture people.

her mom even began to starve her , there is even nights when she suddenly appear and use the torture curse on her, after a few months a man joined is thrown into the same room with her, her mom began to torture him ruthlessly causing him to scream, but the man observed her also being tortured and cared for her, he began to give a part of his food to her, bandaged her wounds, cared for her, he even escaped with her even though he is bleeding and saved her from there, she considered that man as father and his name is Rodolfus lestrange, then she told them about Dumbledore hiding her and her father in Hogwarts when her father brought her here.

Alex and Cho has tears hearing this and Cho hugged Delphini caressed her hair and consoled her, Alex said," don't worry delphini , we aren't gonna hate or tell others about you, we will take care of you". Delphini them said," can you call me Delphi, that's what my father Rodolfus called me". Cho ,Alex agreed to this and Alex told Cho to look after her along with Luna once again.

Delphi calmed down a little and Alex took out some chocolates and sweets he bought in America from his inventory, then he gave some to Cho and Delphi, Cho and Alex told Delphi about their experience in Hogwarts and their family, Delphi is envious of this and Alex told her he will take her to meet his family during Christmas, though Cho is jealous she didn't say anything as it's for making Delphi happy.

Alex then gave Delphi some packed candies and chocolates as she liked them , Delphi took them with a smile, they exited room of requirement and entered Ravenclaw common room to meet Luna who is waiting for them and asked Alex about the unicorn and pheonix. as it's only 4:15 at this moment, he decided to take them to the forbidden forest to visit the unicorns, he told Delphi to tag along with them. she agreed after hearing it's a unicorn.
