The Charles Becomes a Wizard
Chapter 55: Meeting with Voldemort Again
The expressions of the little lions became visibly depressed, and a few girls even couldn't help sobbing softly.
If Dumbledore had not just specifically suggested giving Harry and the others extra points, perhaps the little lions would not have been particularly disappointed about losing the house cup.
After all, the number of gems in each college has long been clearly displayed, and the little lions naturally have an idea of who will win the college cup this year.
But Dumbledore's stroke of genius gave them hope of winning the House Cup from those venomous snakes in Slytherin, but before they could be happy for long, they were brought back to square one.
It would be fine if you had never seen hope, but when something that you can clearly touch with your hand is taken away mercilessly, the huge psychological gap in between is not something that most people can bear.
Naturally, the little lions began to vent their anger on others.
They instinctively began to shirk responsibility.
At this moment, they did not think about how they performed in daily life, nor did they think that if Dumbledore had not been partial to Harry and others and gave them a lot of extra points, Gryffindor's original number of gems would not even be as many as Hufflepuff's.
They only knew that if Harry and his friends had not violated many school rules and had not been deducted 100 points each by Professor McGonagall, perhaps Gryffindor would have won the house cup.
As the "culprits" who made their mood fall to the bottom again, the Gryffindor trio received many resentful looks from the little lions.
Yes, if you think about it carefully, the points deducted from Gryffindor by Harry and the other two this year are by no means a small amount.
Dumbledore, sitting on the high platform, took in the reactions of the little animals. His eyes flickered, and it was unknown what he was thinking in his mind.
......
The holidays were not easy for Ciel, because he not only had to complete the papers assigned by the Hogwarts professors, but also had to learn the knowledge that Eric had learned when he was studying at Hogwarts.
When Voldemort, who was forgotten by Ciel, finally couldn't help but come to him, Ciel was still struggling with the exercises assigned by Sebastian.
"Mr. Voldemort." Ciel raised his hand and pinched his swollen brows, looking at the uninvited guest in the study: "Next time you show up, maybe you can notify me first?"
Voldemort found a chair and sat down without any hesitation, not taking Ciel's words seriously.
The Dark Lord had his own reasons for doing anything, and a little Muggle wizard was not qualified to know the Dark Lord's itinerary.
However, after looking at the black-clad butler standing behind the boy, Voldemort wisely did not say this out loud.
"Did you find what I wanted?" Voldemort asked.
"I found it." Ciel nodded, looked at him straight, and said with a smile: "But is there something Mr. Voldemort forgot to tell me?"
For example, if you touch the crown directly with your hand, your soul will be sealed in the crown and your vitality will be absorbed.
If it weren't for the fact that demons are naturally extremely sensitive to souls, it's possible that Charles would have been tricked by the crown.
“Really?” Voldemort thought to himself that it was a pity that the curse he had cast on the crown when he split his soul was actually discovered by the boy.
If the boy died, who knows, maybe the man would be willing to become his subordinate?
Voldemort thought so, but his expression did not change at all, "Since I didn't say it before, it shouldn't be an important matter."
Anyway, the magic contract they signed before did not stipulate that he had to ensure the boy's safety.
"Where's the stuff?"
"Still in Hogwarts." Ciel answered in a matter-of-fact tone.
Of course Ciel could let Sebastian take the crown out of Hogwarts, but on what basis?
This person is already thinking about taking my life, so how can I expect him to complete the transaction between us in an honest manner?
The magic contract did not specify a time limit for completing the transaction, so just drag it out. After all, he was not the one who was in a hurry.
Voldemort's eyes turned cold: "I thought our previous deal was for you to bring the things out."
"Don't worry, Mr. Voldemort. I have always had a good memory." Ciel narrowed his eyes and smiled.
Hearing what he said, Voldemort also understood the boy's attitude, and he subconsciously wanted to raise his wand and cast a dozen Cruciatus Curses on the ungrateful Mudblood in front of him.
But just as Voldemort's fingers moved, a beautifully crafted teacup was placed in front of him. The bottom of the teacup made a crisp sound when it touched the table. When he raised his eyes slightly, he saw a man in black showing him a gentle smile.
"Mr. Voldemort, please have some tea."
Meeting that pair of dark red eyes, Voldemort suddenly remembered the silver knives that were embedded in the wall when he first saw this man.
They are so close now, if they act rashly, he might cut their necks, right?
This thought suddenly appeared in Voldemort's mind.
So Voldemort forced himself to suppress his anger.
"When can you give me the crown?" Voldemort asked, suppressing his temper.
His soul had been split too many times before, and his current condition could not be described as good.
After learning from that person that splitting his soul would not only fail to grant him immortality but would drive him crazy, Voldemort had always wanted to take all the split souls back into his own body. The soul hidden in the crown was very important to him.
"I thought the Ravenclaw crown belonged to Hogwarts." Ciel lowered his eyebrows and took a sip of tea. "Is it not good for Mr. Voldemort to take it for himself?"
Ciel directly pointed out the origin of the crown. If he had known that Voldemort wanted such a valuable thing, he should have cheated him again.
"I think, no matter how valuable the crown is, it will not affect the transaction between us." Voldemort gave a fake smile. "Are you going to tell me that you regret it now?"
Just because he found out that the crown originally belonged to Ravenclaw?
"Of course not." Ciel shook his head. "Don't worry, I still have some sense of contract."
The two sat opposite each other, and Ciel noticed that the burn marks on Voldemort's face seemed to have become smaller this time.
"You seem to have encountered some good things recently?" The boy, whose identity as the soul hidden in the crown was deliberately concealed by the evil devil, considered his tone and asked tentatively.
