Hogwarts: This Dark Lord is so evil

Grindelwald looked at Leif, who was pretending to be confused, and a smile reappeared on his face.

“No, nothing, I'm just talking to myself.”

“Oh, is that so? I knew it, you definitely weren't talking to me,” Leif said cheerfully.

The two men's eyes met and then drifted apart, never to meet again.

However, although the two did not establish communication on the surface, in fact, they already understood what each other was thinking.

The words Grindelwald said were just some preliminary probes of Leif…

As for what to test?

Of course, it was to test whether Leif wanted Dumbledore to know about his suggestion to him.

If Leif didn't intend to hide it, he wouldn't pretend to be confused, but would communicate with him generously.

At least, Leif is not without the possibility of joining his camp.

Moreover, this also means that Leif's interactions with him will no longer be restrained by Dumbledore!

Just like Leif learning dark magic, Dumbledore can't control it even if he wants to.

After Grindelwald looked away from Leif, he immediately turned to Tom.

Tom immediately felt a sense of foreboding.

In fact, Grindelwald's eyes on Tom were much gentler than on Leif.

It's really… Tom's heroic spirit of detonating the poison gas bomb to die with him shocked even someone like him. You know, Tom was only eleven years old last year…

Grindelwald has worked hard for so many years, and there are many people who want to die with him, but a child who wants to die with him and puts it into practice… so far, there is only Tom!

“Tom.” Grindelwald called Tom's name with a smile.

Tom's face stiffened. Unlike his conversation with Leif, Grindelwald directly called his name!

That is to say, it is impossible for him to pretend to be confused like Leif… unless Leif's cat is there!

This is the first time Tom doesn't hate Leif for naming that cat Tom, and eagerly hopes that the thing is on the scene!

Anyway, that cat can understand human language!

“Tom, Tom… I really admire your courage,” Grindelwald said with a smile.

“Me? Courage?” Tom was a little stunned by what he said. He really didn't think he had anything to do with courage.

“Not many people dare to detonate a poison gas bomb so resolutely. What's more, you are still a child…” Grindelwald said with emotion.

“No… that's not a poison gas bomb, that's a sleeping draught…” Before Tom could finish his words, Grindelwald laughed.

“Tom… no one knows the reaction of people before they die better than I do…” Grindelwald looked at Tom gently, “At that time, you definitely didn't know that you detonated a sleeping draught bomb, but you were very sure that it was a poison bomb, right?”

Tom opened his mouth, but in the end he didn't say anything.

God knows, at that time he really thought it was a sleeping draught dung bomb! He was just tricked by Leif's fake death poison…

As for why there was a ferocious reaction before death… don't you, Grindelwald, have any idea?

You almost recited Avada Kedavra! Do you still want me to smile? I'll go to hell!

But Grindelwald didn't know these things.

He firmly believed that Tom was really determined to die with him at that time!

Sometimes, as long as people have preconceived ideas, it is difficult to change…

And this preconceived idea was already imprinted in Grindelwald's heart when Tom squeezed the dung bomb last year.

Therefore, in his heart, Tom and Leif's images are exactly the opposite of what Dumbledore thinks!

In Grindelwald's view, Leif is a little black wizard who is despicable, shameless, and ruthless at a young age!

He and Grindelwald are serious “peers”!

And Tom… is a good boy who is willing to sacrifice himself for the safety of his friends!

This kind of willingness to die is like… Dumbledore…

Therefore, for no reason, Grindelwald has a better impression of Tom, even if Leif is more outstanding than Tom.

“I think I need to apologize to you. Last year, some of my actions did leave you with some bad impressions. I sincerely hope to get your forgiveness here,” Grindelwald said sincerely again.

Some bad behavior? Are you referring to pointing a wand at my neck and starting to Avada Kedavra?

You almost killed me! Now you want me to forgive you? I forgive you a hammer!

Of course, Tom didn't dare to say the above words, he could only slander secretly in his heart.

As for reality…

“It's okay, I've already forgotten it if you don't mention it,” Tom said calmly.

Yes, Tom admitted his cowardice again.

Whether it's Grindelwald or that Leif, they are all lunatics!

He can't afford to offend any of them now! So… forbearance!

However, his answer fell into Grindelwald's ears, who had already formed a fixed impression, and became proof of Tom's great courage!

Look, how brave this child is! Even if I almost killed him with the Killing Curse, he can still answer me calmly! He doesn't even tremble when he speaks!

Moreover… he generously forgave me! This broad mind… is more and more like someone's shadow before.

Well… before…

Now someone is stingy!

Isn't it, what are you doing staring at me all the time just because I'm talking to the students?

Could I eat all these students?

“I'm glad to have your understanding. I can only say that I had no choice at the time. To express my apology, if you have any difficulties in your studies or any difficulties in your life in the future, you are welcome to come to me at any time. I will be in Hogwarts during this time… Remember, you can ask me anything you don't understand,” Grindelwald winked, hinting very well.

Tom could only vaguely respond.

If it was before, Tom might have been ecstatic, even if this guy had almost killed himself before.

Because he used to have a great desire for power… especially dark magic.

But now… it's not that he doesn't desire power now, but that he doesn't have such a great desire for dark magic.

He has realized the magic of love, and also felt the powerful charm brought by the magic of love advocated by Dumbledore.

Moreover, he also realized the fundamental truth that only one's own strength is the foundation.

Besides, while his strength is growing rapidly, he also found that his talent for dark magic seems to be… a little worse…

This was discovered when he was practicing spells before. As his defensive spells became stronger and stronger, the power of his Killing Curse, Cruciatus Curse, and other dark magic seemed to be not as powerful as before…

Tom didn't know if this was his illusion, but it also greatly reduced his interest in dark magic.

The latest novel is first published on 69shu.com!

With such a powerful role model as Dumbledore, he is not worried that he will become weaker if he doesn't use dark magic.

This is a correct path that others have taken!

While Tom's mind was spinning, Grindelwald started talking to the students in the surrounding clubs again.

Those students were very restless… hoping that this guy would leave here quickly.

However, Grindelwald seemed to be staying here, with no intention of leaving at all.

As for those students whose parents were in his service, he never seemed to have thought of chatting with them.

After Grindelwald chatted with everyone, he started pestering Tom again…

Tom never knew that this world-famous dark wizard could be so talkative!

Poor Tom could only shiver and echo.

Anyone would be frightened in this situation.

After a while, Tom pitifully looked at Leif, thinking that Leif could help him out or something.

However, Leif's attention didn't seem to be on Grindelwald at all.

At this time, Leif was watching the short boy named Filius Flitwick trying hard to climb onto the stool.

The Sorting Hat had only been on his head for a second before it directly sorted Flitwick into Ravenclaw.

With his pursuit and enthusiasm for knowledge, Ravenclaw is indeed the most suitable place for him.

A burst of warm applause rang out from the Ravenclaw table.

Although Flitwick looks a bit special, this is not the most important thing for Ravenclaw students.

In Ravenclaw, knowledge is the most important thing.

If you are a loser, then even if you are devastatingly handsome, you will not be respected by other eagles.

Even the later fraudulent Lockhart was a complete academic master when he was in school.

“Currently… there are still too few Ravenclaw students in the club… Do they think that no one in the club can help them with their studies? Or are they saying that they feel that being helped can only make them study well, which hurts their self-esteem?” Leif pondered, completely ignoring Tom's pleading eyes next to him.

After a while, the Sorting Ceremony was about to end, and there were only a few students left in front of the stool who had not been sorted.

“Alastor Moody…” Professor McGonagall called out another name.

Then, a thin boy walked up quickly.

Leif looked at Little Moody, his eyes gleaming.

Alastor Moody, the most famous Auror in the future… it would not be an exaggeration to call him a legend among Aurors!

You know, when Voldemort was rampant, at least half of the prisoners in Azkaban were caught by him!

Even if he later died at the hands of Voldemort, he was still a real talent! We must strive for it!

Compared to Ravenclaw's Flitwick, Gryffindor's Moody is relatively easy to fool!

Gryffindor… just shout more about bonds, friendship, and so on, and they will join.
