Chapter-28: another farce at year end feast, endless troubles

In February on Valentine's Day she did not forget to record the embarrassment of Harry for the new paper article. Anything and everything that can be used as news, it was covered by her and used to the maximum limit for her benefits. 

Only at the end of the year around May that Daphne released the information about Lockhart being the fake. It was such big news that the entire magic world is shaken. With the support of Dumbledore and Harry potter, Lockhart has improved in reputation during this time.

Actually it was Dumbledore's tactics to divert the attention of the public from Hogwarts but Daphne directly detonated a big bomb to blast all the plans of Dumbledore to bits and pieces.

In the article not only the information of Lockhart is released but also all the information about Dumbledore failing to bring a proper defense against dark arts teacher was also mentioned. This dragged the name of Hogwarts to mud.

It is just floating there for small breath. Daphne did not stop at that. After her great discovery about basilisk she was not awarded any house points till now. It has been 6 months and she was not given a single house point for her contribution of saving.

On the day of the house cup allotment Dumbledore is present but looked very exhausted. He is no longer as energetic as before. Because of various things Gryffindor has more points than other houses.

It has been a year since the year end feast when Daphne first awakened her memories. Now she once again stood up right when Dumbledore was about to announce the results. Naturally he and every one stopped to pay attention to her.

"Sirs and madams, I have a very few valid questions I wanted to ask? May I ask the questions?"

Naturally everyone is silent and only Dumbledore has the right to speak.

"Sigh… you can ask child"

"Thank you sir, what I want to ask is why am I not given any house points when I am the one the solved the mystery that was not solved for 50 years.

Also my discovery of the identity of the beast and its location has saved so many people at Hogwarts. I was not given a single house point. Even if the points are not given they did not even recognize this matter. 

Did the people of Hogwarts become so ungrateful that you don't want to give anything to me just because I am a Slytherin? We are not the ones that opened the chamber of secrets but it is from Gryffindor.

Even then we did not make things difficult and even helped save the life of a student. Other than that the accusations on Mister Hagrid were removed after I solved the case. He did not even mention a thank you. 

If things are not solved he should be taken to Azkaban by now and we don't know how many people would have died. I am not saying all this because I want house points. I no longer see this house cup as something honorable. I even detest it now. 

What I want to ask is why the students here became so ungrateful. If Slytherin students act ungratefully then it is okay because it is their nature. What happened to valiant Hufflepuff, intelligent Ravenclaw and brave Gryffindor?"

Her question was so good that it directly blocked the throats of many people. After speaking till here Daphne looked at Dumbledore once again and said.

"Sorry for disturbing your feast people. I have something to do so I will leave early."

After speaking Daphne stepped out of her place and walked out of the great hall before others got back to her senses. For this she specifically sat at the edge of the table so that she can leave early.

Wily got a good recording of the entire thing and Daphne left to send the letter to Rita Skeeter. Right now Rita Skeeter is very busy with all kinds of articles that she could not respond to Daphne in time.

Well it is not wrong as the previous articles got good amount of attention and her name has improved by leaps and bounds. But she knows that behind her there is Daphne that is making the moves and giving her first hand information along with proofs.

Even if there is a problem she can face it up with the help of those evidences. This made her work easy but also hard. The number of clients increased and she cannot gather evidence as Daphne could gather. 

This made her too overwhelmed that she barely keeping up with the things. This slight delay did not cause any problems for Daphne but she doesn't like this kind of slow response. This might cost her few things. 

So Daphne warned Rita not to make this same mistake again. Rita felt embarrassed by being told by a kid that is a third of her age. Still she did not refute because Daphne is very terrifying and Daphne did not cause her any trouble.

It was her that caused the trouble. Daphne knows that there are no eternal friends of enemies. So she has to keep safe with Rita from now on so that in the future she would not double cross her.

For that Daphne has to become stronger in physical level, magical level, financial level and other places as well. Only then can she be safe even if someone tried to back stab her secretly. Fortunately after a year of training her strength has improved significantly.

At that time dobby is freed and Daphne got a hold of dobby for herself. Dobby has righteous face and it needs to be kept as a cover in many places. She is now close to 15 years old and her beauty is showing.

When she enters third year she would turn 15 that is in three months. Her date of birth is on September 5th after all.
