HP's return to innocence

Chapter 31 Transition

In fact, the Dark Lord's interests in destruction, calculation, and pleasure are not a big problem.In other words, as long as they are high-ranking people, they will have such interests.The difference is only in the object and degree.Destroy the enemy, calculate the enemy, enjoy what you can enjoy within your own ability - in fact, if you can do these, you are already considered a qualified monarch.

The real trouble is that Voldemort is "not good at business", and after returning, he lost that "calculating" hobby.They only know about destruction and enjoyment, and often after creating a ruin, they never think about how to rebuild a new force on the ruins, but move to the next place to continue tossing.

This not only distanced the already hostile people, but even turned neutral people into enemies.

What's worse, his greed and madness are not only aimed at enemies, but even his own people are the objects of his blood and bone marrow.Drake couldn't forget the anger, unwillingness and helplessness that belonged to him even though it was his home.

"Father, what if the Dark Lord becomes a man who is proficient in violence and cunning, but at the same time, knows how to build?"

"Of course..." A wise leader who can represent the interests of pure blood and nobles is of course what the platinum nobles would like to see. However, the actions of the Dark Lord in the past few years before his disappearance really made him have little confidence in his change. .But soon, Lucius looked at the crown - if he really controlled the Horcrux, then even if he didn't want to be wise, he must be wise!

But, is it possible?

After all, the prerequisite for the Horcrux in front of him to become the Dark Lord, first of all, the real Dark Lord must be "disappeared"...

This is undoubtedly a very tempting idea, but at the same time, it is also an extremely dangerous idea, after all, the one he is about to murder was once so powerful.

"Father, I wonder why that man didn't come to you or any other Death Eater when he came back. Instead, he found a young and stupid guy like Quirrell." Of course, Draco didn't want Voldemort to stick to his father The back of his head--the back of his father's head should only be covered with his beautiful platinum-blonde hair--he just added fire after seeing Lucius' obvious hesitation and wavering.

And why didn't Voldemort come to Lucius or any nobleman, but wandered alone for ten years before finally finding Quirrell?

Arrogantly speaking, his self-esteem does not allow it. As a "king", he cannot allow his servants to see his embarrassed, weak and powerless side.

To put it bluntly, he was running away because of low self-esteem - it might be a little scary that the Dark Lord would have low self-esteem.But if you think about it, you will know, if he didn't feel inferior because of his blood and appearance, why would he remove the Muggle blood in his body, cut off the youth and childhood before the age of 16, and disfigure his appearance.

Of course, these are all things he hates, but it is undeniable that these are still his own.Don't want to face it, or even abandon yourself, isn't it inferiority?

Realistically speaking, even with the existence of the Dark Mark, he does not trust his servants to help him in his most miserable time.

In fact, if he had gone to find a nobleman immediately after being blown away ten years ago, even if he was just a soul, Voldemort's power would not have given anyone the courage to betray him.He will be able to regain a body soon, then, it is very likely that there will be no counterattack by the Ministry of Magic and the Order of the Phoenix at that time.

After all, they dared to resist only because the Dark Lord disappeared.The Death Eaters will retreat steadily, and even a large number of traitors will appear, because the Dark Lord has disappeared!

As a dictatorial force with highly concentrated power, he was indispensable no matter whether he was an arrogant lunatic who had lost his reason at the time.His behavior at that time can be said to be selfish and abandoned all his subordinates who trusted and relied on him.

Therefore, the reason why Voldemort didn't find the nobles in the first place, no matter what it is, he is definitely not a qualified king, not even a qualified hero. Yes, it's just a tyrant with some abilities.

Lucius didn't know much about Voldemort, but as long as he thought of one or two of them, it was enough as a reason for his betrayal.That person is no longer worth following. If a similar situation happens again, even if he can still handle it, the Malfoy family will be hurt fundamentally.

He didn't want his little dragon to take over a broken family in the future.

"Perform the Blood Pact Ceremony again." Lucius said, looking at Drake.

"Okay, father." Draco nodded without hesitation. If the former master is not dead, performing the blood sacrifice again will not change anything. This is just a waste of magic power.However, he couldn't refuse for any reason, because now, what Lucius wanted was not control over the Horcrux Crown, but to confirm that his son was not controlled.

And Drake's straightforwardness really eased Lucius' tense expression a lot, but he didn't change his decision because of it.Lying—whether verbally, facially, or physically—was a compulsory subject in Slytherin, and Lucius himself was so proficient in this subject that he could not believe it completely.

"Then, let's start now." Now, only after confirming the safety of the crown, can they continue to discuss how to make the Dark Lord "disappear", and then how to replace it with the dangerous technology in front of them.Only then can I spend this Christmas Eve safely, no, Christmas Eve has passed, and it is the early morning of Christmas...

It is not a good idea to perform a blood sacrifice ceremony in the study.

Lucius summoned an elf—Draco suggested Dobby—as a means of transport for the crown, and then brought the Malfoy family's manuscript of a certain ancestor, two vials of blood tonic, a vial of dragon's blood, four A black candle came to the dungeon of Malfoy's house.

But Lucius obviously didn't want Draco to follow him into this place, although after the "heart-to-heart talk" this night, Lucius had to admit that Draco had grown up and was a qualified Malfoy.However, he is still, and will always be, his son. As long as he is with him, he is obliged to stand in front of him and protect him from the wind and rain whenever he faces danger.

"Draco, I think it's time for you to sleep. Tomorrow, we can continue the rest of the content."

"Father, I think it is very necessary for me to stay here. Although I know that the blood tonic you used must be the best, but I don't think those potions can make up for the blood you lost in order to draw the magic circle. After all, I have experience."

Lucius' gray eyes, obviously wide with shock.He always thought that Drake's blood sacrifice ceremony would not be too successful, the main reason was that he didn't think Drake would use his own blood.After all, if a person wants to hurt himself, he needs not only calmness, maturity, etc., but also a sense of ruthlessness—except for lunatics and people who are in despair.

Before that, he always thought that his little dragon was a little clever and cunning, but mature and calm?Maybe wait for him to play a few more times?As for ruthless?He originally thought that Draco could only be cultivated when he was 17 years old or even older, but he must have suffered several losses after officially taking over the family business...

But obviously, this Christmas, Xiaolong is determined to keep his old father by surprise.

"You used your own blood, little dragon?"

"Yes, it's my own blood. But because the amount of blood needed is too much, in order to prevent accidents, I can only cooperate with blood supplements and take blood every other day. When taking blood, in order to prevent magical interference, I Only cut the wrist with a silver knife, without using any spells. It took me almost a month to collect all the blood. 90.00% my own blood, fused with 5.00% dragon blood. Everything is strictly according to the handbook requirements."

Lucius stretched out his hand and touched the top of Draco's head, never like today, he didn't want his little dragon to grow up...

Guan Guan, who had been floating aside, looked at this scene and couldn't help curling her lips.

Voldemort cut off the 16-year-old diary, thinking that he had abandoned the stupid past before the 16-year-old, but in fact, he just created a Horcrux with only the memory of the 16-year-old, and he himself, what he should have is still Also, what should be remembered is still engraved in his mind - otherwise, the day after the Horcrux was divided, he would be an idiot who couldn't even walk or talk.After all, as a person, the past may be forgotten, but it is absolutely impossible to be separated. It is Tom Marvolo Riddle's previous experience that created Voldemort at the age of 17 and later.

So, for example, standing here now, watching the interaction between the father and son, he knew that what came to him was jealousy.He had been looking forward to his father for 16 years...that was almost half of his life—the crown—but what his father gave him was only disgust, fear and even hatred.

Crown turned away from looking at the father and son, they made him very strange.

Lucius finally performed the blood sacrifice, and Drake's decision to stay was obviously right. The two bottles of blood tonic could not fully make up for the blood that Lucius had lost, but the potion's potency was also limited. Even if Lucius poured himself a dozen blood tonics, they wouldn't give him any effect other than stomach bloating.

Therefore, more than three-fifths of the magic circle were completed by Drake, and he even corrected one of Lucius' mistakes-Lucius hadn't particularly remembered this magic circle before, after all, with a soul In this day and age, such an effect as signing a device does not sound very common.

"I remember seeing it inadvertently, so when I realized it could be used in school, I pulled out the memory." Drake explained, and what he said was indeed true, but It wasn't accidental, but he sneaked a peek in Lucius' study before Hogwarts started.

And thinking of peeking at his father's book, Draco thought of a bad habit of his father - he likes to keep all kinds of books in the study, such as the ancestor's handbook, and a certain diary, but his father didn't seem to realize that It is a Horcrux, but it is only regarded as a more dangerous dark magic item.

However, regarding the diary, let's wait until we reveal it. Father is already tired enough today.

The author has something to say: Voldemort's killing his father is definitely a very bastard act -- but from his point of view, this is actually a matter of deep love and hatred. He has been looking forward to a father, but in the end he Dad wasn't just the Muggle he hated the most, but he obviously didn't have the slightest bit of love for him, maybe even hate and disgust.For example, thinking that he is a stain on his life or something.

Not to mention that Tom himself has the madness of the Gaunt family, even if he is an ordinary orphan, if he is treated like this by the father he misses - he will probably beat old Riddle hard.It's just that Tom is clearly overdoing it.

As for Tom's Orphanage, the concept of "my dad will have the same power as me, take me away, leave this group of people, and punish this group of people", in fact, as long as you are a child, when you are bullied when you are young , will think that his family will avenge himself and the like.

So at least before he killed the old Riddle family at the age of 16 and framed his uncle, he absolutely cannot say that Tom is a born lunatic, crazy murderer or something like that.

The above is all personal understanding--
