Hogwarts: This Dark Lord is so evil

"Old Mr. Sophiek originally did intend to sell those books, but he passed away before he had the chance," Toby said, shaking his head.

"Old Mr. Sophiek never liked reading since he was a child. In his opinion, those books were the least valuable things. In fact, since Mr. Sophiek inherited the tower, he rarely went to the third and fourth floors…"

"So, when he was short on money, the first things he sold were the items in the laboratory."

Li Weide was shocked. In the magical world, there were actually people who thought magic books were the least valuable things?

And Toby had been with his former master for quite some time, so he also thought books were just waste paper.

That's why he initially told Li Weide that there was nothing left in the old house.

He didn't even mention those books!

Looking at it this way, it's completely understandable that this Mr. Sophiek couldn't beat others.

In fact, he couldn't even be called a dark wizard…

What kind of dark wizard has an empty laboratory?!

However, it was fortunate that this spendthrift started selling off the equipment on the first floor first, allowing the books on the third and fourth floors to escape this disaster!

"Take me to the third and fourth floors to have a look!" Li Weide said excitedly.

In his opinion, these books were the most valuable things in the entire old house!

…

While Toby was happily cleaning the wizard's tower.

Li Weide was on the third floor, looking through the Somnolun family's collection.

It wasn't until he saw a manuscript titled "The Origin of the Somnolun Family" that he finally understood some information about this family.

Although the Somnolun family wasn't as old as other pure-blood families, it had also been passed down for hundreds of years.

What surprised Li Weide was that, according to the manuscript, the founder of the Somnolun family was actually a hag!

As far as Li Weide knew, a hag should be considered a magical creature. Later, the Ministry of Magic classified them as humans, just like centaurs and mermaids.

In fact, although hags look very ugly, they are very similar to humans.

Their image is like an ugly old witch.

In Muggle fairy tales, the images of ugly and old witches come from hags.

And this founder of the Somnolun family was named Leticia Somnolun.

She once gave a princess an overdose of Draught of Living Death because she was jealous of the princess's beauty… which is the same thing Li Weide gave Tom tonight.

The princess, after taking an overdose of Draught of Living Death, fell directly into a coma.

Until a wizard appeared.

This wizard was very cunning. He put a cheering potion on his lips and then kissed the princess, and the princess was awakened.

Next, the king, not knowing the wizard's identity, married the princess to this young wizard…

When Li Weide saw this, he couldn't help but scratch his head, because this matter looked extremely similar to the Muggle fairy tale Sleeping Beauty.

It is very likely the prototype story of that fairy tale…

Li Weide continued reading.

The princess's awakening made Leticia extremely angry.

But she was no match for the young wizard, so she had to endure it.

It wasn't until the princess and the young wizard had their first child that Leticia stole the child.

And this child was the true ancestor of the current Somnolun family…

This matter was only told to the child by Leticia on her deathbed, many years after stealing the child.

By the time the child learned the truth and went back to find his biological parents, he found that they had already died and could no longer return to their roots.

In the end, the child still chose to return to this tower, and then the Somnolun family was born…

After reading the family's origin story, even Li Weide couldn't help but marvel.

After putting down this manuscript, Li Weide began to browse the other collections.

It must be said that the Somnolun family is indeed an old family that has been passed down for hundreds of years.

Although it is not as old as those pure-blood families, its foundation is not weak at all.

Judging from these manuscripts and books, this family has produced many talents.

It's just a pity that it ended up being ruined by Sophiek…

The more Li Weide read, the more excited he became.

His original intention was just to find one or two manuscripts or magic books that Dumbledore wouldn't let him see.

But now it seems that tonight's harvest far exceeded his expectations!

After quickly browsing the collection on the third floor, Li Weide went directly to the fourth floor.

The books on the fourth floor were no less than those on the third floor.

It should be said that most of what is placed on the third floor are experimental manuscripts and magical insights left by past members of the Somnolun family… or simply books they wrote themselves.

And the fourth floor is where magic books and rare editions collected from outside are placed.

The most important thing is that Li Weide discovered that both floors of collections have one thing in common.

That is, there is not a single magic book that can "pass censorship"!

It can only be said that it is worthy of being a dark wizard family. Ordinary magic books without a bit of darkness are not worthy of entering their library…

Li Weide even found a book called "Secrets of Cutting-Edge Dark Magic" on a bookshelf!

In other words, Li Weide can read and learn all the collections here.

However, when you really want to use the knowledge inside, it's best to make sure there's no one around…

Otherwise, you will definitely be locked up in Azkaban!

Li Weide reads quickly and has a strong interest in these books.

After browsing several books in a row, he reluctantly put down the book.

He looked at the time and found that it was already five in the morning. It was time to go back. There will be another time to explore the other places in this tower.

For safety reasons, he doesn't plan to take any of the books here. Anyway, he has a good memory, so it's better to store it in his mind.

"Toby, we should go back."

At this time, Toby had already cleaned the entire tower spotlessly.

It was only because Li Weide was always reading that he didn't bother him.

"Okay, Master Weide!" Toby said happily.

Toby was so happy that Li Weide was willing to inherit this "old house".

"Toby, remember, you must not tell anyone else about everything that happened tonight, and everything about this old house! Remember, you must not mention it to anyone!" Li Weide said seriously.

These books must not be seen by Dumbledore…

Tom is even more out of the question!

If he really reads these books, Voldemort will be born ten years earlier!

"Yes!" Toby responded seriously.

…

The Hog's Head Pub.

Tom rubbed his head vigorously.

For some reason, he always felt that his head was particularly heavy this morning.

It was as if he hadn't slept enough.

"Are you okay?" Li Weide asked.

"No… nothing…" Tom said, shaking his head again.

"Drink this." Li Weide threw a bottle of cheering potion over.

Tom's symptoms must be because Toby gave him too much medicine last night.

It was said to be one drop…

But for Toby, how much is one drop may still be debatable.

After Tom drank the cheering potion, he immediately felt much better.

He couldn't help but feel a little more grateful to Li Weide.

Completely unaware that the reason he was like this was because of the medicine Li Weide gave him!

Poor Tom, being played in the palm of his hand without knowing it…
