Hogwarts: Tom is not the Dark Lord

And they...all the Slytherins will stand here, following the founder's will, blocking the front...

The true heir...will hold a sword in one hand and a shield in the other, becoming an insurmountable line of defense...

'I will do it...I swear...this has long become my home that I will protect to the death...'

Whispering in a low voice, Tom slowly input magic power into Goldie's Knot, and the stone slabs on the side shook and disappeared, revealing a long and narrow passage.

Walking in the passage with his wand, Tom was a little irritable. He now knew his ancestor's last wish, but the most important thing had not yet been settled. The guy who was thinking about his body was still there.

Could it be that the control of his body was taken away before he even got the wand? Tom scolded Gormlaith Gaunt in his heart. Why should she be crazy when she has nothing to do? Bullying a child is nothing! The wand was also stolen by a child...

Gunter...Haaah! What a ridiculous group of people. He would rather be named Malfoy from now on!

(Salazar’s original words in the previous chapters did not explicitly say that half-bloods or hemps were to be eliminated, only that those who were not worthy of learning magic were to be eliminated. Only Salazar’s wand was indeed buried in Ilvermorny. .

I am really...so humble w_w)

In Tom's conscious space, the young man suddenly looked up at the sky. The originally gloomy and dark sky seemed to have been shattered by a giant hammer, and the long-lost sunlight shone on the ground through the gaps.

'The sun will shine again...honor will resurface...you were right, I was wrong...'

A bleak smile appeared on the young man's face. If he could have discovered it earlier, wouldn't everything be different? If he could face his heart, would the ending be changed...

'Useless persistence, useless pride...'

The young man set his sights on the clearer valley and looked at the manor whose outline could be seen in the distance. After a long time, he let out a sneer.

'Yes... I am now... indeed as you wish...'

Coming out of the passage, Tom looked at the surrounding environment. Fortunately, at least it wasn't the girls' bathroom, it was in the corner of the hall not far from the open space.

"Even if you are a prefect, you can't wander around at this time, are you right~ Tom..."

Sighing in his heart, Tom was a little lucky, at least he wasn't discovered by Professor Dumbledore when he came out of the wall.

"I'm sorry, Professor. During the day, I heard some noises from the cupboard. It seemed like... the sound of "clicking, clicking" eating. I was a little worried so I went to take a look. As you know, this year's exam is very... It’s important, I don’t have much free time...”

Tom accepted the scrutiny calmly. What he said was not all lies. He even knew what was in the cupboard. The Acromantula...the Acromantula that had hatched not long ago...

And who else could be fed the crumbs besides the half-blood giant from Gryffindor? For such a big man, even if you want to hide, you are still very conspicuous...

Dumbledore blinked quickly, ah... Of course he knew Hagrid's little hobby, but a simple guy would not do anything to harm a student.
