HP has a villain system but has become a popular character

Tom Riddle's scarlet eyes swept over the people who were kneeling on the ground and trembling. Seeing that these people were surrendering and fearful, the man narrowed his eyes with satisfaction.

He stretched out his slender, bony fingers and pinched a corner of the black hood. The hood slid down with his movement, revealing the handsome and almost enchanting face of a man.

"Get up."

He is like God's beloved child. Even his voice is deep, magnetic and charming. Every word he speaks is like a whisper in his lover's ear.

When everyone heard the man's words, they stood up one after another, but still did not raise their heads, just as if people could not look directly at the god they believed in. They believed in him, admired him, but also feared his power.

Abraxas Malfoy stood up and walked quickly with his son to Tom Riddle, stopping half a step behind him.

Tom Riddle showed a satisfied look on his face, but pretended to be regretful and dissatisfied. "Abu, I told you that we are friends. You don't have to be so disciplined."

Abraxas Malfoy lowered his noble platinum hair even lower, "You are our Lord, etiquette cannot be abolished."

"Well, you're always like this." Tom Riddle twirled the wand in his hand with satisfaction.

Behind him, the woman looked at the man she was following with fanatical obsession.

Tom Riddle felt the burning gaze behind him, turned around, and casually turned his wrist. A red light burst out from the tip of the wand and hit the woman.

"Bella, take your eyes off me. This Cruciatus is just a small punishment for you."

Cruciatus requires sustained malice as an output, so this fleeting curse can only be regarded as a painless warning.

The moment the curse hit Bellatrix, she fell to the ground and curled up in pain, but she did not scream or beg for mercy because of the pain. Instead, she became more obsessed and fanatical.

"Okay Lord, thank you for your reward."

When the other followers saw Bella like this, disgust and fear appeared in their eyes.

This woman was really unworthy of her Black family name, and the nobles disdained to associate with such a person. But Bellatrix also had the madness of the Black family, and her paranoia made everyone afraid of her methods.

The woman endured the severe pain from deep within her soul and stood up. She raised her feet tremblingly and stood respectfully behind Tom Riddle.

Tom Riddle did not see the person he wanted to see at the banquet. He turned his head slightly and glanced at Abraxas Malfoy beside him. "Abbu, where is Wenxiu Lord? Didn't you say he would come today too?"

When Lucius heard Tom Riddle call Wenxiu Lord's name, he panicked and was about to raise his head to explain.

Abraxas Malfoy reached out his hand to stop Lucius's movements, gave him a warning look, and took a respectful step forward.

"Lord, someone spilled wine on Wenxiu Lord at the banquet, and he was taken away to clean up the stain, and he never came back."

Tom Riddle ignored the little gesture of the father and son and looked at Walburga Black in the crowd, "Oh?"

Walburga Black sensed the Lord's gaze and took a few steps forward and walked out of the crowd, "Yes Lord, if you need to see him now, I can bring him down."

Tom Riddle is always so deceptive, and every word he says is hypocritical and misleading.

He chuckled twice, "Since I want to see him, of course I should take the initiative to meet him. Lead the way."

The fat man Selwyn took a few steps forward before Walburga Black could reply. He was eager to show off his achievement.

Since no one knows where that Oulu was taken, then it is natural that all these credits belong to him.

The Lord actually took the initiative to ask to go find Wenxiu Lord, and his attitude towards him must be special. When the time comes, if he presents the drugged boy to the Lord, he will definitely gain unimaginable wealth and status.

As if he was thinking about his glorious future, the fat man couldn't help laughing out loud.

When the other people present saw the man suddenly jump out, and after seeing who this man was, the same idea popped up in everyone's mind at the same time.

'What a damn fool.'

Tom Riddle looked at the man who suddenly came forward with an obscene laugh, and felt his hand holding the wand itching more and more.

"Selwyn, what's going on?"

Selwyn quickly knelt on the ground respectfully, "Lord, please allow me to go with you. I have prepared a gift for you."

No one knew what Tom Riddle and his companions were thinking at this moment, but Walburga Black and Lucius behind him were already ready to kill someone.

If Abraxas Malfoy hadn't been there to stop Lucius, he would probably have seen himself, the only child of the Malfoy family, taking action in front of the Lord.

Tom Riddle raised his eyebrows, hiding the displeasure in his eyes very well, and pretended to be interested, "Okay."

He glanced at Walburga Black behind him and said, "Let's go."

Walburga Black was so angry that her teeth were about to break. How could she know where Wenxiu Lord was now! Damn Selwyn.

"Lord, it was my two sons who took Wenxiu Lord to clean up, so I'm afraid..."

Walburga Black stopped talking quickly after stealing a glance at the man frowning in displeasure and twirling the wand in his hand. He was so frightened by the man's actions that he broke into a cold sweat.

"Please follow me."

Walburga Black was now extremely flustered. She was like a person who had never exercised and suddenly heard the physical test notice that she had to run 5km within 2 minutes.

She kept praying in her heart, hoping that her two sons would be more capable and take Wenxiu Lord to one of their bedrooms. She also hoped that Wenxiu Lord would be more capable and would definitely remove the effects of the potion.

Thinking of this, Walburga Black cursed Selwyn and the ignorant Olu behind him in his heart.

The three of them finally stood in front of Regulus' bedroom. Walburga Black still felt that if he really had to choose one, his two sons probably would not choose to bring Wenxiu Lord to Sirius' bedroom which was full of dresses.

Walburga Black took a deep breath, bowed to Tom Riddle behind him, and then knocked on the closed bedroom door.

After waiting for a few seconds, the bedroom door was opened from the inside. Regulus, wearing casual home clothes, looked at his mother standing in front of him and the two men behind her in confusion.

Although the young man looked puzzled, he still stepped aside and invited the three people in.

"Please come in."

When the three of them walked into the bedroom, they found the room tidy and clean. The hot tea in the cup on the coffee table was still steaming, but there was no one else there except Regulus.

Walburga Black asked his youngest son in front of him, "Regulus, where is Mr. Wenxiu Lord?"

The boy's face showed just the right amount of confusion. "Wen Xiu? He seemed to be unwell. He left a note for me and my brother, telling us that he was going back to Lord Manor."

Selwyn, who was standing nearby, shouted in disbelief, "It's so far away, there's no fireplace and no carriage, how did he get back!"

Regulus seemed even more confused by his words. "Wen Xiu can Apparate. There is no anti-Apparate spell in this manor. Besides, Wen Xiu brought the portkey with him. He just used the portkey to go back."

Hearing this, Selwyn saw Tom Riddle's expressionless face, and he collapsed to the ground in despair.

When Tom Riddle saw how useless he was, his scarlet eyes became even more charming, but he didn't say anything. He just snorted coldly and left.

When Walburga Black heard the news that Wenxiu Lord had left, he first breathed a sigh of relief, but then held his breath, fearing that Lord would vent his anger on his youngest son.

After seeing the man leave, I finally let out the breath I had been holding in my heart.

She looked at Selwyn, who was slumped on the ground in a daze, with sarcasm. But when she saw her youngest son, her eyes were filled with infinite pity. Her youngest son was always so outstanding.

Regulus bent down, hiding all the emotions in his eyes, poured a cup of black tea and handed it to his mother, "Mother, who was the person who just left?"

After Walburga Black took Regulus' hot tea and drank it, he felt his stiff limbs warm up.

"That's the adult. You're still young. Don't talk about it now."

Regulus' eyes flashed with a look of "as expected" and he looked at the fat man slumped on the ground, "Mother, what about him?"

There was murderous intent and disgust in the boy's eyes. This man wanted to plot against Wen Xiu and now he had soiled his carpet.

Walburga Black sat on the sofa and drank black tea. "The Lord will definitely punish him when he returns. You don't have to worry about it. Just ask Kreacher to throw him out later."

Regulus looked at the man on the ground, picked up the teacup on the table and took a sip, "Okay..."

What a pity, I can't kill him myself...
