Hogwarts: This Dark Lord is so evil

“Wow, this place of yours is really great!” Li Weide enthusiastically toured Tom's new house.

It's fully equipped, and there's even a huge garden outside where you can grow magical plants.

After planting, there's still a large area left for practicing spells.

And such a place is just a small part of a dispensable forest on someone's manor.

Is this the extravagance of a rich second generation?

Li Weide was a little envious.

Tom watched Li Weide touring the place on his own with a blank expression.

In fact, this is his secret base! One that he absolutely didn't want Li Weide to discover!

However, this guy directly discovered some protective magic he had set up when he first arrived at the Riddle Manor, and then… he was exposed!

Tom had tried to stop him, but… he never seemed to succeed in stopping Li Weide from doing anything.

Including now, he seems to be unable to stop himself from going back to St. Mungo's again…

“Tom! Come on, didn't you say you wanted to spar with me?” Li Weide drew his beech wand while touring the training ground, looking at Tom with anticipation.

“I admit that I was a bit loud before… but… I still can't beat you now…” Tom admitted defeat very directly.

He really had a brain fart before.

In fact, he had no confidence in facing Li Weide now!

He was too cocky at the time and didn't think of one thing, which is… since Li Weide could increase his strength with just a few words.

Then how strong is he himself?

Without strong strength and experience as a foundation, how could he casually guide people to improve?

You know, even Dumbledore could have an epiphany because of his words!

What was he thinking? He dared to challenge him with a little progress?!

Sure enough, the side effect of a surge in strength is that it's easy to get cocky…

Li Weide had mentioned this to him before.

It's just that he actually forgot…

“No big deal, Tom, I won't go for the kill.” Li Weide waved his wand.

It had been a while since he had used his wand, and when he waved it, he actually felt a faint emotion coming from the wand.

Hmm… it felt like it was feeling very aggrieved for being neglected.

This discovery made Li Weide feel very interesting.

Could it be that what Ollivander said was true? Do wands really have their own spirituality?

So, dragging Tom into a fight was also to try out what was different about his wand from before.

“Seriously, Weide, I just had some progress in my relationship with my family… so… just don't let me go to St. Mungo's for the time being, okay? Let me spend more time with my family, alright?” Tom said with a mournful face.

“Alas, okay… too bad.” Li Weide said helplessly.

Tom was overjoyed. Could it be that this dark wizard was letting him go this time?

“Then let's switch from sparring mode to practice mode… Tom, attack with all your strength! I'll help you see if there's anything you need to improve!” Li Weide held his wand vertically to his nose, carefully sensing the subtle emotions coming from the wand.

“Uh…” Tom's heart fell to the bottom again. In the end, didn't he still have to get beaten up?

Really… what does it mean to bring disaster upon oneself with words? Tom was determined to try not to speak as much as possible in the future…

As for now… just take the beating properly…

A moment later, Tom's classic screams echoed from the forest…

…

Li Weide only stayed at the Riddle's house for a few hours and left when it was getting dark.

He politely declined Old Master Riddle's carriage, took his suitcase, and walked into the dim night at the entrance of the manor.

In the blink of an eye, he disappeared.

“You wizards are really… coming and going without a trace.” Old Master Riddle sighed, leaning on his cane, looking in the direction where Li Weide disappeared.

“There aren't many like him… among wizards. At least, I can't do what he can do.” Tom said meaningfully.

“Is that so? But I think he's about the same age as you, and aren't you classmates?” Old Master Riddle asked strangely.

“A wizard's skills can't be judged entirely by age… Some people are born standing at the finish line of others.” Tom said resentfully.

He still felt that Li Weide came from an ancient Eastern pure-blood family and inherited countless ancient family magic and methods…

Otherwise, how could he do so many things that even adult wizards couldn't do?

“In any case, we should be grateful to him. He saved our lives…” Old Master Riddle sighed, “The wizard who treated me said that if he hadn't helped me delete some painful memories, I would have gone mad even if I woke up…”

“Yeah… very lucky indeed…” Tom said sincerely.

“I thought you would travel with him.” Old Master Riddle said.

Tom shook his head, “This time, I want to stay… I've realized something, and these things are only available in this place…”

“What is it?” Old Master Riddle asked.

Tom pondered for a while, a embarrassed look on his face, “… Maybe it's called… love?”

“Ha… then it's right for you to stay. If you had to leave with him to realize love, that would be a big problem!”

Tom: ?

…

“Screech!”

A harsh braking sound rang out, and Li Weide jumped off a strangely shaped bus, then squatted on the side of the road and started vomiting.

“Welcome to ride the Knight Bus again next time! Goodbye!”

“Beep beep!”

The bus started again and sped away…

Li Weide took a while to recover before standing up on the side of the road.

Today, he had the whim to try the legendary Knight Bus, but… this bus, which officially started operating in 1865, brought Li Weide an unspeakable riding experience!

Ride again next time? No next time!

However, this bus does have one advantage, which is that it can take you directly to your destination.

Now, he is standing on the land of Dorset…

After all, Li Weide had never been to Dorset and couldn't Apparate.

After completely recovering, Li Weide looked at the road signs on the side of the road and confirmed his location.

In this era without “immoral maps” navigation, finding the way is quite troublesome.

“I told you a long time ago, buy a broom, that would make traveling much more convenient.” A soft voice suddenly sounded in Li Weide's ear.

Li Weide shuddered and quickly looked around, but there was no one around!

“Senior sister?” Li Weide asked in surprise.

“It's me.”

“You… you don't need to use small animals to convey consciousness anymore?” Li Weide asked happily.

“Yes… Due to the research during this period, I have been able to use more magic… Within the UK, my consciousness can now talk to anyone at any time.”

“Hiss…” Li Weide gasped.

Before, senior sister could cover her consciousness over the entire UK. Now, she can just use a little more power and can directly talk to him with consciousness?

It's hard to imagine how powerful she will be when she comes out…

Senior sister seemed to see through Li Weide's thoughts, and a soft voice sounded in Li Weide's mind again.

“Even if I come out, I won't be as powerful as you think. Because, if I don't dissipate the 'residue' on my body, I won't be able to come out, but when I dissipate the residue, I won't be that strong. Relatively speaking, you who helped me absorb these powers are the stronger one. So, you don't need to worry at all.”

“I'm not worried, just amazed.” Li Weide said, “Moreover, after mastering the correct conversion method, your strength will definitely be able to return to its original state again, right?”

Senior sister said softly: “Yes… my research is almost there. When I am completely successful, any emotional power can be converted into harmless power here.”

Li Weide was shocked. If he could really do this, he would need a hammer system. He could hug senior sister's thigh and become a god directly!

“Then when you come out, wouldn't you become a god in minutes?”

“God?” Senior sister heard this word and was silent for a while before saying: “God is omnipotent, and I… even if I am stronger, I can't make up for the regrets of the past… so, I can't become a god.”

“Sister! I don't want to work hard anymore!”

“You call me sister? Do you know how old I am this year?”

“Then… Auntie? Auntie, I don't want to work hard anymore!”

Senior sister said helplessly: “Don't be glib, how can you not work hard? Even if a pie falls from the sky, you have to be willing to bend down.”

“Then I only need to bend down?” Li Weide asked excitedly.

“You… why do you always try to be lazy?”

“In fact, thinking about being lazy is the driving force for human progress! If people weren't too lazy to walk, how would they have invented the flying broom?” Li Weide said very rigorously.

“Okay, even if you're right, and even if I want to help you, but… according to my current conversion speed and your speed of absorbing 'residue', when I come out, your beard may be whiter than your Professor Dumbledore's.”

Li Weide's eyes widened, as if struck by lightning.

Now Dumbledore's beard is still reddish-brown! By the time his beard turns white, it will be fifty or sixty years later!

That is to say…

“This… that is to say, you can only come out when I become a hundred-year-old man?”

“Actually, with your ability, I can't predict your future achievements. Who will help whom in the future is still uncertain… Strictly speaking, I am also making an investment.”

“Uh… you flatter me too much… Wait, your voice…” Li Weide realized it belatedly at this time.

When senior sister appeared before, both her figure and voice were unclear.

But now, he can actually hear senior sister's original timbre?

“Yes… I finally got back some of what belonged to me… It's just a pity, things have changed…”
