HP has a villain system but has become a popular character

The room was eerily silent. Dozens of people were silent, and even their breathing was slowed down as much as possible.

The reason they were so cautious was simply to avoid disturbing the man sitting in the main seat who was reading the fragrant letter in his hand.

I casually opened the gift that came with the letter, and it was useless.

The man threw an exquisite and gorgeous tie on the table with disgust.

The storage room of Malfoy Manor is now filled with gifts from the boy, and even his study, which he usually uses as an office, is filled with various gifts.

None of it was useful.

The masked man sitting in the main seat was playing with the magic wand in his hand, and the sound of his fingertips tapping on the table was heard by everyone.

With his brows furrowed beneath the mask, Tom Riddle impatiently burned the first page of the letter to ashes, his eyes full of impatience.

As planned, he would invite Vince Lord to live at Malfoy Manor during the holiday at the end of the Hogwarts school year.

He wanted to make the boy even more addicted to him so that he could successfully make him a helper to him.

Tom Riddle no longer had the patience to wait, and his plan could not afford to go wrong.

So in recent times, he personally replied to all the letters exchanged with Wenxiu Lord.

Although Lucius would come to him every day to report the contents of the letter after replying, he was really surprised to see the word "love" written all over the letter by Wenxiu Lord.

It still made him feel sick and disgusted.

Useless words filled several pages of valuable paper and lay spread out before Tom Riddle.

The man burned one sheet after another in annoyance, until finally, he saw a few lines of reply he wanted.

He was very dissatisfied with the boy's answer.

A little kid who only knows about love and is good at disguise.

I don't know how many people he has killed, and now he is pretending to be compassionate.

What a double standard of kindness.

The last piece of letter paper also caught fire without any fire, and the air was filled with a burning smell.

His scarlet eyes scanned the people at the long table. He and his Death Eaters had visited almost all the nobles in the British wizarding world whose addresses he could find.

After lying dormant for so many years, he can finally start to realize his great cause.

The Lord was inspecting his followers, but his followers were full of gossip at the moment.

There has been a ridiculous piece of news circulating among the Death Eaters recently - their Lord seems to have a lover.

This news was spread by a confidant at the long table. It was said that the Lord called him to the study that day, where he saw many exquisite and valuable gifts.

Today, seeing the legendary "gift" appear in front of everyone, a few people who were valued and a little bolder at the scene couldn't help but raise their eyes curiously, and their sights fell on the gift that was casually discarded in the middle of the long table.

It is indeed very exquisite. You can tell at a glance that the fabric and material are custom-made and a lot of thought was put into it.

I don’t know who is so bold to get the favor of the Lord.

The scarlet eyes noticed that several people's eyes were fixed on the tie, and the man's gaze instantly became gloomy.

Those who were curiously looking at the gifts on the table only felt a chill creeping up their backs. They quickly withdrew their gazes and lowered their heads in silence.

Those who can sit at this long table are the man’s confidants, but this is not a reason for the man to forgive them.

If you accidentally break the taboo, even if you don't lose your life, you will suffer torture.

His venomous gaze moved over everyone, finally landing on the woman beside him.

"Bella, you have completed the task I assigned to you very well. As a reward, you can make your request."

The purpose of today's meeting is mainly to reward and reward those who have performed well in the past few days.

As the subordinate who contributed the most and killed the most people in the attacks on Muggles during this period, Tom Riddle would not be stingy with his reward.

In the sight, the woman's gaze stayed on the tie on the table for a moment, a flash of resentment passed through her expression, and then she excitedly stood up from her seat, knelt on one knee facing the man in the first seat, and her words were full of respect and admiration.

"My Lord, being able to serve you is the greatest reward for me."

As she spoke, the woman was about to kiss the corner of the man's robe to show her loyalty.

The expression under Tom Riddle's mask moved, forming an arc.

"Bella, you are truly my most loyal subordinate. I believe that with you here, we will definitely stand at the top of the world in the future."

The woman kneeling on the ground had facial features distorted with excitement and her expression became more and more obsessed.

"Wake up, Bella."

The tip of the staff waved, and an invisible force lifted the woman's body.

After the woman sat back down, the room returned to dead silence.

In the huge hall, there were no less than 20 people sitting at the long table alone, and the people standing around were groups that reduced the area of ​​the empty room to half its original size.

With so many people around, only Tom Riddle's voice could be heard in the room.

After nearly an hour, towards the end of the meeting, the dead silent atmosphere finally relaxed a little.

Some were delighted that they had received the reward, while others were terrified and almost became tools for the men to vent their inner cruelty.

The man waved his hand, and everyone in the conference room dispersed.

In the end, Tom Riddle only asked Bella and Lucius to stay.

The platinum young man sitting in the middle of the long table stared blankly at the exquisite gifts that were casually thrown on the long table, lowered his eyes and concealed the thoughts in his eyes.

Things that are out of his reach are things that others can easily discard and disdain.

"Lucius."

The deep and magnetic voice echoed in the empty hall.

The platinum youth stood up and knelt on one knee, his cold gray eyes, which were operating the brain occlumency technique, empty and numb.

"My Lord."

"In a while, there will be new friends in Malfoy Manor. We should leave a good impression on him."

The man stood up and looked down at the young man in front of him, "Repair Malfoy Manor."

In order to keep Wenxiu Lord, it is always necessary to create some illusions so that he can fall deeper into the trap.

Lucius' heart trembled when he heard this. Could it be Wen Xiu? Is he going to become a Death Eater too?

"Yes, My Lord."

Restraining his excitement, the platinum young man spoke in a steady tone without any ups and downs.

After hearing the reply, the man patted the young man's shoulders twice with satisfaction and left without looking back.

Bellatrix, who was following behind Tom Riddle, stared at the tie with a strong look of jealousy in her eyes.

Who on earth is so close to the Lord every day? She wants to find this person and kill him (her).

The most important person around the Lord, the one who can finally stand by his side, can only be me.

The door closed slowly and firmly, and there was a click when it was completely closed.

A few moments.

The young man who was kneeling on one knee stood up and walked slowly to the table.

The gift just lay there quietly, completely unaware that it had already been abandoned.

His slender, beautiful fingers passed through the smooth and shiny fabric, picked up the tie, folded it, and put it into the inner pocket of his shirt, close to his heart.

He picked up the love that others didn't want and brought a mirage oasis for his dry soul.
