Mentor and Friends

After saying this, without waiting for Dumbledore to respond, he hurriedly left with Harry in his arms.

Tom followed, frowning.

"Ron...Ron..." Harry held Ron's shoulders tightly, and slowly opened his closed eyes. Tom, who was following Ron, was surprised to find that the pair of eyes that were originally emerald green like emeralds At this moment, the eyes were gradually covered with blood—just like Tom's eyes hidden in the darkness.

"I'm here," Ron said with difficulty. The magic in Harry's body was chaotic, and they were being impacted by another soul who wanted to replace Harry's existence and reverse the cycle of magic power. "I'll take you out of there, As long as there's no reaction between them, it's better than nothing."

"Ron..." Harry handed the wand to Ron. He still remembered that the wand used by Voldemort was the same as his wand, and the core of the wand was the same as Fox's feather. The magic power of the dead soul has the greatest room for development, "Take my wand and don't give it back until I'm stabilized." Harry never leaves his wand, although he has already learned silent and wand magic, but His dependence on the wand has never disappeared. After the war, many people never leave their wands, and Ron is no exception.

However, under such circumstances, he handed his wand to Ron.

"Man, you look like you're telling your last words." Ron gritted his teeth, went into the cellar, took out his wand and made a rope, and tied Harry tightly, "Empty your brain, how did the old bat Taught you, use your Occlumency." Harry's consciousness was fading, and Ron couldn't care about anything at this time, even if Riddle was beside him.

"If I can't resist..." Harry, who clearly knew that his soul was damaged, had already begun to struggle with the ropes that bound him, "Ron, you know what to do."

Ron bit his lower lip. After a long time, he nodded slowly: "I will."

Harry closed his eyes in relief.

During this time, the magic power of his whole body was mobilized, forming a protection around him. Tom could clearly see that Harry's forehead was swollen enough that it could no longer swell, but the pain on Harry's face was slowly calming down.

The magic power that spread all over his body was like a vortex, circulating on Harry's body, impacting off the rope on Harry's body.

At this time, Ron would chant the spell again to restore the destroyed rope.

Tom always felt that they made him very strange. It was a world that made him incompatible. He always felt that he wanted to ask something, but he was afraid that if he did, he would lose something.

And Ron was almost engrossed in paying attention to Harry's situation.

The calmer Harry's breathing became, the tighter Ron's brow furrowed.

After a long time, those closed eyes opened.

The pupils that were originally covered in blood were completely covered in blood, and the pure green that was unique to Harry's eyes had disappeared. Tom looked at those familiar but unfamiliar eyes, and even took a step back involuntarily.

Such eyes appeared on Harry's body, so terrifying.

Then, the bewilderment in those eyes disappeared, and he saw Harry give a wry smile.

"He failed..." He heard that the always gentle and kind voice became extremely cold at this moment, like the unpleasant sound made by something rubbed against sandpaper.

"Damn..." In just a second, Harry's gentle voice appeared again.

After that, they kept switching to each other, and it looked as if two people were fighting for one body.

It's just that he's only heard of split personalities causing people to have two personalities, but Harry...

Just when Harry was secretly startled, he saw Ron next to him point his wand at Harry's forehead expressionlessly.

Tom looked at him in surprise, and saw that in those eyes, pain and unbearable were intertwined, but in the end, those eyes were finally replaced by firmness.

It's like making up your mind...

Tom suddenly had a bad feeling in his heart.

The next moment, he only heard Ron chanting a spell clearly and firmly: "Avada Kedavra!"

Do not!

Tom's heart was instantly replaced by panic. The spell was only a few fists away from Harry, and he hit it with a black magic without thinking.

Harry allowed him to use black magic under special circumstances, but he didn't expect that this black magic was actually used to disintegrate Avada.

The two spells sank into Harry's forehead almost at the same time, and Tom heard a terribly shrill scream that hurt his eardrums.

And the next moment, Harry's scar radiated a ray of light, and the magic that had been absorbed into Tom's wand was shot out in an instant, and it was actually connected to Tom's wand.

At the same time, Tom only felt a gravitational force, as if something was pulling him, and it seemed that something was crashing into his body desperately.

His eyes went dark, and when he woke up again, he found himself in a small yard.

He frowned and looked at his hand, and he realized instantly that he didn't have a wand in his hand.

"This is how the same thing?

Just when he was wondering, a barking of dogs caught his attention.

The door of the house was opened, and a little boy ran out from inside, and climbed up the tree in front of him in a panic, even if the bark scratched his arm, he didn't care too much.

A dog chased after him, barking at him constantly under the tree.

"Hahahahaha..." A fat boy ran out of the house laughing loudly, watching the boy trembling on the tree, such a scene seemed to please him.

Tom looked at the boy climbing on the tree, and almost froze in place the moment he saw his appearance clearly.

That's Harry.

Although it was far from the Harry he remembered, it was indeed Harry.

It's just... this Harry was beyond his expectation.

He didn't have the elegance and gentleness of a grown-up, and he didn't have the sunshine of the man he saw, but he was thin, baggy old clothes, and slightly timid expression that didn't belong to his peers.

This is... Harry?

"Aunt Petunia, how did I get the scar on my head?"

"Your parents were left behind in a car accident. Don't ask questions."

"Boy, you should go get your damn hair cut!"

"Weird, give me your homework quickly, the teacher asked you to hand in your homework."

"If you dare to mess up the bacon, try it. I want Dali's birthday to be a smooth one!"

"I don't want him to go, I don't want him to go..."

"Hey Dad, Harry got a letter."

"Who will send him a letter..."

Tom remained motionless, watching the pictures come and go in front of him.

This is... Harry's past?

Those bullied, enslaved past...and him...as if...

Tom didn't know why he was able to peek into Harry's memory. The only guess was that when he just stopped Ron's death curse, the magic power resonated with Harry's magic power, causing him to stumble into the bottom of Harry's memory by mistake.

Accidentally, he peeped into his past.

But...he never knew that Harry's past was so similar to him, he had no parents, he was rejected by others, he would never have himself...the same, the turning point of fate came from that letter.

Harry didn't graduate from Beauxbatons, Harry was a student of Hogwarts from the very beginning!

He looked at the torn envelope, which was the contact information of Hogwarts. Harry probably couldn't press the surface of the envelope at the time, which caused his memory to be blurred at the moment, but Tom knew that there were so many people outside. The reason for the owl is because Hogwarts has to make sure that the owl gets the letter to the addressee.

Then, he saw Harry on a small island, welcoming a half-giant—the Rubeus Hagrid who had been dropped out of school by his design.

Wait, he remembered that when Hagrid dropped out of school, and even now, he wasn't so... strong!He looked much older and older than the half-giant guarding the hunting grounds now...

Harry finally saw the letter, and Tom saw the letter.

"Harry Potter" received...

Is that Harry's real name?

Someone in the Potter family called Harry all these years?Or was Harry expelled?

"How could James and Lily die in a car accident? That's slander, slander."

"Your scar didn't come from a car accident, oh, every kid in our place knows about it, and you don't know anything about it..."

"About 50 years ago, a dark wizard appeared."

"Oh, well, his name is Voldemort, Merlin, don't make me repeat that name again."

"That Halloween night ten years ago, he came to Godric's Hollow, and both Lily and James..."

"You are the only one who survived the death curse, you are the Boy Who Lived..."

You are our savior and our only hope to defeat Voldemort!

When Tom was ejected from the depths of his memory, his whole body was shaking.

The author has something to say: until the [-]th, it was operated by the manuscript box, and I love a passionate kiss╭(╯e╰)╮

It means that Yueyue is exhausted from sweeping the tomb, please forgive me for not replying in time

98. The third game ([-])

Harry seemed to be in a nightmare, he was muttering something, more like calling someone's name.

Ron didn't even dare to approach him, he couldn't bear to turn his head away, but he was extremely used to Harry's current situation.

Harry's mind is basically a battlefield now, and the awakened dead souls are constantly eroding his soul.

Just make it past the very beginning, and Harry will make it through.

He could resist Voldemort's curses so many times, and it didn't make sense that he would die on the side of the dead soul.

"He..." Tom squatted on Harry's bedside. Harry was in a nightmare, and the original magic power began to appear chaotic. He was competing with Voldemort's dead soul for the right to use his body. in an extremely weak state.

Tom didn't know what to say, he seemed to have a thousand words, but he didn't know where to start, what he saw in Harry's mind was still hitting his mind, he had never He thought that Harry would have such a past, and he never thought that the "Voldemort" he thought of before had already invaded Harry's life and brought endless disasters to Harry.

He never thought of all this.

The sudden connection to Harry's memory caught him off guard.

"Your consciousness just connected to his brain and saw his memory." Ron said without looking back, "Harry also had this situation before..." Harry's previous consciousness was often connected with Voldemort together.

"No matter what you see... remember that it has nothing to do with you." Harry's first half of his life was almost related to Voldemort. He didn't know if Riddle had begun to develop his own power now, but he knew that Riddle saw What he saw was enough to shock him, "These...all happened before." The person who hurt Harry, the person who made them lose countless relatives was not Riddle after all, they might have the same personality, But after all, they have different fates.

Whatever Riddle saw, don't take it to heart.

Those were just Harry's past after all.

"You just..." Tom pursed his lips, "Curse him to death."

"There is another force in his body, if this force gains the upper hand, I must attack immediately." Tom said another spell to Harry, and the ropes were tied even tighter, "We... No one can afford to have another power in him fully awaken." They had lost so much for that war, and Harry's previous "you know what to do" was a reminder that their efforts should not be in vain , when necessary, Ron must be ruthless, just like when the Death Eaters held Ron in front of Harry and let Harry watch Ron being tortured by the Cruciatus Curse, Harry finally ruthless in order to free Ron Like laying down Avada.

Sometimes, they need to point their wands at their companions.

"he……"

"I shouldn't be the one to tell you these things." Ron lowered his head, "From the very beginning, I objected to him paying too much attention to you, but I can never stop what he is going to do, he wants to tell you I can't stop anything, but I shouldn't be the one to say those things." In less than two years since he came here, he watched Harry and Riddle go from being strangers to being almost inseparable now, and there may be some collisions, sometimes Tom inadvertently caused Harry's memory to cause Harry to be in a bad mood for two or three days, but anyway, Harry did what he said, distinguishing Riddle from Voldemort.

Harry told Ron at the beginning that Riddle and Voldemort are two completely different people. In this world completely staggered from their time and space, Tom has another hope. They will have different paths and different futures.

During the period when Ron was still in chaos, and Ron was still in a state of mixed emotions towards Riddle, Harry had completely isolated him from Voldemort.

Ron asked himself that he couldn't do that.

He always felt that Harry was slowly integrating into this world, and no one knew better than him that Harry had a harder time accepting the existence of new people and things—after going through the war, it seemed that Harry had a harder time accepting other people's feelings Normally, because no one knows who will be the betrayer in the next second, because no one knows who will leave in the next second, Harry slowly closed his heart in that war, even though he still enthusiastically Treat everyone.

Harry is slowly integrating into the world through Tom.

He finally untied the knot between Dumbledore and Grindelwald, and he finally...slowly accepted this young man. Ron saw everything in his eyes, but he didn't know what to say. , Harry has not opened his heart for a long time.

Tom sat on the edge of Harry's bed.

Harry seemed to be slowly settling down.

"Originally, I should have given him another Death Curse." Ron said, "But... I don't know what spell you used just now. That spell should have counteracted my Death Curse, leading to the current situation." Yes, the canceled spell probably caused damage to the dead soul because it entered Harry's body.

At least from the current situation, Harry's situation is improving, although Ron doesn't know whether the power of the dead souls is weak or Harry's two spells are helping.

"Is he... all right?" Tom asked softly.

"I don't know..." Ron shook his head, "This is the first time that Harry has been in such a situation." If Min found out by accident, they might really be caught off guard after the dead soul woke up. "Look at him, I'm going to find potions for him, if he's still unconscious, just remember to tie him up, if something...is wrong with him, your black magic will come in handy." Ron He got up, opened the closet, and took out a black cloak from inside.

He had never gone to Knockturn Alley by himself, either with Hermione or Zabini.

Although it was a little nervous to go alone for the first time, he still had to go. Some potions could only be found in Knockturn Alley, even though Riddle was a student highly praised by Slughorn, but those potions There is no material cellar here, and he still needs to go out.

If Riddle stayed here, it shouldn't matter...

It was better for him to have Harry here alone than for someone to watch over here.

"No matter what, Harry had better be in a coma before I come back." I don't know what's going on outside, and he can't leave from the outside at critical moments. Fortunately, the fireplace in the cellar is connected to the fireplace in Godric's Hollow. It shouldn't matter if you follow this way out and then Apparate to Knockturn Alley.

Tom nodded.

After Ron left, he was alone with Harry.

The rope that was constantly cut by the magic power made him repair it time and time again. He lowered his head and looked at Harry who kept raving.

Harry couldn't hear what he was saying.

That seemed to be Harry's past, a past he hadn't been able to participate in.

He didn't know that Harry had the same experience as him when he was a child. He didn't know that Harry had a pair of parents who loved him. He didn't know the relationship between the person Harry was calling and him.

He had never met anyone in the past... who had such a bond with Harry.

This kind of Harry...is he sure to keep Harry?

Tom reached out and took Harry's hand lightly.

The magical power that was supposed to reject any foreign objects actually opened a gap for him.

The magic around Harry was still spinning and turning, but the magic didn't cause any damage to his hand.

He quietly held Harry's hand, which was so hot under the influence of the magic power, it was unbearably hot for Tom, who had a low body temperature all year round.

Tom wondered how Harry put up with this state.

He wanted to shake Harry awake and ask where he came from.

Is it the future, or something else?

"But..." Tom held Harry's hand tightly, "Even if you don't belong here, I have to keep you here." You have already broken into my life, and I don't want to let you go.

He held Harry's hand so tightly, and unexpectedly found that because of his joining, the chaotic magic power gradually became milder.

"This is……"

What he didn't know was that the black magic he had driven into Harry's forehead just suppressed part of the power of Ron's original Killing Curse, causing the remaining power to go straight to the dead soul on Harry's forehead. In the tug-of-war, the death curse and the black magic just helped Harry a lot.

Unbeknownst to Tom, Harry was slowly suppressing the dead souls.

It's a pity that Ron went out, otherwise he would find something wrong at this time, and then add a spell, maybe Harry can suppress the dead soul. After all, as long as he survives the initial period of time, Harry will definitely be able to To suppress the dead soul.

At this time, Tom didn't know why.

He could only hold Harry's hand, and accompany Harry through difficult times when Harry was unconscious.

Until Ron came back, looked at the potion, then looked at Harry.

Ron didn't dare to approach Harry. When Harry was unconscious, his whole body was almost on alert, not to mention that Harry's body was actually very unstable now.

Tom finally snatched the potion and fed it to Harry himself - whatever doubts he had, he had to keep Harry safe first.

The sky suddenly broke, but Hogwarts fell silent.

Ron went out to check what was going on outside, and Tom, all night long, never let go of Harry's hand...

99. The third game ([-])

Harry had a long, long dream.

He dreamed about a lot of things, and those memories that were deposited in the years or forgotten or could be buried did not know why they flashed in his mind one by one, as if suddenly he remembered many things, but these things, he should have forgotten That's right.

There was someone screaming in his mind all the time, he knew it was Voldemort, the piece of dead soul was gradually waking up, he was robbing himself of everything.

The shock of the resurrection of the dead soul actually brought Harry. At the moment he was revived, Harry felt a pain that made him collapse more than Cruciatus-it was the shock of the resurrection of the dead soul, and both he and Harry knew it , if he couldn't snatch Harry's body in the first place, then it would be Harry who suppressed him.

Harry was also so painful that he couldn't breathe because of the momentary impact. For a long time, his resistance became lower and lower, and he even felt that the magic power was out of his control.

Voldemort took advantage of his weakness.

He was extremely thankful that he had handed the wand to Ron before he passed out.Ron should know what to do.

They are tacit to each other.

No matter under any circumstances, dead souls can never be resurrected.

At the moment when the dead soul seized his body, at the moment when the body and even the magic power were under control, Ron had to use the Death Curse.

Only in that way can the dead soul be killed, although they don't know what accidents will happen to him.

And he clearly felt a force intruding into his body, he heard Voldemort screaming, cursing hoarsely, but he could feel that Voldemort's control was gradually disappearing, and the magic power that had been taken away was gradually disappearing in him under control.

It seemed that some other power had invaded his body, and the power that would have burned him was counteracted by that power. It hurt Voldemort, but because of the dead soul as a shield, he was safe and sound.

Taking advantage of the momentary recovery, Harry firmly suppressed the dead soul.

However, there seemed to be some kind of power connected to him. Since learning Occlumency, the brain that Legilimency could no longer invade was connected to some kind of consciousness.

Harry saw him when he was very young.

He didn't know who was peeping at his memory, but he who was resisting the dead soul at the moment couldn't be distracted to stop it.

He let that person see himself in first grade.

He suppressed the dead soul and resisted that force.

It nearly broke him.

The shock when the dead soul first woke up caused him huge damage. The last time he was so seriously injured was in the decisive battle with Voldemort in the final battle; Voldemort is worthy of being Voldemort, even if he is dead Soul can also cause such huge damage to him who is defenseless.

Suppressing the dead soul and flicking away the consciousness that invaded his brain, he almost lost any ability to move. He is extremely weak at this moment. If the dead soul makes a comeback, then he is dead.

In a daze, he didn't know what happened afterwards. The only thing he was sure of was that he finally suppressed the dead soul. Before he could find a way to kill him completely, he could only continue to suppress the land that could be revived at any time as a horcrux. dead soul.

When Harry woke up in a daze, he felt a force suppressing him. He couldn't move his body, he could only barely turn his head.

He was covered with ropes, which should have been tied by Ron to prevent accidents.Ron didn't know where he was going, but he felt someone holding his hand, and barely propped his head up, which disturbed Tom who was sleeping beside him.

"Harry." Tom looked at him with vigilance. He probably didn't have a good rest. It was just one night. His eyes were faintly bloodshot, and there was worry in his eyes, but he still pointed his wand at Harry.

"It was me," said Harry hoarsely. "I came to you during the game and warned you not to look into the Basilisk's eyes."

Tom was relieved at last.

"Harry, how are you?" He didn't easily untie the rope on Harry's body. Ron's words were still echoing in his mind. He was afraid that another force in Harry's body hadn't disappeared. If he got off the rope and Harry was suddenly controlled, he couldn't guarantee that he could control Harry. After all... Although he didn't want to admit it, Harry was really much stronger than him.

"It's not good," Harry gasped. "It's been a long time since I've felt my magic run out like this." This feeling of being extremely weak is really uncomfortable.

"Ron went out to check the situation, he found some potions for you last night," Tom bit his lip, "Do you want to eat something?"

"I think I can eat something light, don't give me meat, or I won't be able to drink the potion later." Thinking of the potion that Hermione specially formulated for him to suppress dead souls, Harry frowned in disgust.

No matter how much the potion helped him, he still didn't like things that smelled bad and made people sick after drinking them.

Tom brought a simple breakfast on the coffee table outside. These were delivered by the house elf just now, and they should have been ordered by Ron when he went out to check the situation.

Tom didn't dare to let go of Harry, and Harry didn't propose to untie the rope on his body. He and Tom had the same scruples. It was the first time that the dead soul was revived. He didn't know the current situation of the dead soul, and he didn't dare to test the dead soul. In the current situation, it is safer only to let oneself maintain such a state of restraint.

Harry's morning exercises were fed by Tom, and Tom felt that he was very happy to take care of Harry, even if Harry felt a little uncomfortable.

The only disadvantage of the potion Hermione ordered is that this potion cannot be taken on an empty stomach except in an emergency state. In an emergency state, it can take effect immediately, allowing the magic power on Harry to be emptied instantly, so that the dead soul has no magic power to use, and its own advantages are gone. Half, it will also severely injure the soul in an emergency state, but Harry's body consists of two souls, so the potion last night gave an important trauma to the already weak dead soul, and Harry happened to be suppressed State, so last night's emergency state did not cause much harm to him.

And now that Harry was awake, he was no longer suitable for emergency situations. He needed something to eat, and taught Tom to say a spell on the potion before he dared to drink it safely.

After Harry finished his potion and lay down with the nausea of ​​wanting to spit out his breakfast, Tom packed his things and returned to Harry's side.

"You don't look very well, go to sleep for a while?" Harry lay on the bed and looked at him. He is now in a weak state, and in order to prevent the dead soul from moving, he suppressed the speed of his magic power recovery, Although the lack of magical power in his body made him uncomfortable, he could still bear it during this period of time, and... this world is really safe, isn't it?

Tom didn't speak, just sat on the seat, held Harry's hand, and bowed his head, as if he wanted to fall asleep by relying on their hands.

Harry couldn't help laughing: "I'm fine Tom, you go back to sleep first."

"I want to be here." Tom said softly, "Harry... I have to admit that when Ron used Avada on you, I was really scared to death. I have never experienced such a panic."

When that green light flashed, he even felt that he was about to suffocate from now on.

He couldn't imagine what it would be like for Harry to disappear into his own world. At that moment, the cold war in the past, the worry about the Horcrux, and the worry about Harry knowing what he was doing, all of these were not as good as Ha The possibility of Leigh disappearing from his side made him panic.

He can easily adapt to a person's life, but when he finally opened his heart to embrace the warm sunshine, he can no longer afford to lose after experiencing the sweetness.

"Harry...Harry...Harry..." He just called Harry's name, burying his face in Harry's palm.

Tom's body temperature is low, and sometimes people can't even feel the temperature. Sometimes he himself feels that even his own blood is as cold as Nagini.

His only warmth comes from Harry Potter.

"Tom..." Harry caressed his cheek with stiff fingers, not knowing what to say for a moment.

"I see, Harry," Tom murmured, "when I stopped Ron from using the Death Curse on you last night, I accidentally connected with your consciousness."

"So...it was you." Harry chuckled.

He has always been a closed brain, and he accommodated Tom's entry unconsciously.

"If...if it's really different from that so-called Voldemort as Ron said, why can't you accept me?" Tom asked him a little confused.

"They're different," said Harry softly. "You're better than him, really." It’s here, it’s okay to tell you, Ron and I come from another dimension..."

Recalling those people and events back then, he suddenly discovered that those childish, sharp, painful, or sad things were already like sand grains entering a clam shell. After all, it turned into a crystal pearl, exuding a soft light in the corner of the memory, lightly touching it, it is no longer half aching all over the body as it was at the beginning.

The impulsiveness and courage of his youth became an inseparable past and the past he was most proud of.

"You're different, Tom," said Harry softly. "I've always known that you were different."

Tom looked at the pride in those green eyes, and finally he leaned in and kissed him almost reverently.

"Harry, stay and watch me succeed, okay?"

Harry, stay and accompany me to success, okay?

The author has something to say: (╯‵ ′)╯︵┻━┻ I didn't prepare to let their relationship settle down until Chapter 99. This is the saddest qaq of my so many hp articles

To be honest, I think Tom is still unable to stand side by side with Harry. His strength is a problem. He is still too weak—in his own opinion—so he has to go back to experience it, and then continue to die ╮(╯▽╰)╭ Do you think this is the end of this article, you are too naive
