Hogwarts: This Dark Lord is so evil.

Chapter 42: Slytherin Traits

Since Dumbledore has not found a suitable house yet, Levi and Tom have to stay in Hogsmeade village temporarily before school starts.

Li Wei and Tom both have plenty of patience for this.

Especially after they received dozens of books sent by Dumbledore this morning.

However, unlike Tom's excitement, Li Weide seemed much calmer.

For Levitra, who had inherited a huge collection of dark magic books, although the books sent by Dumbledore were very good, they were not enough to cause any emotional fluctuations in Levitra.

However, after seeing the calm and composed Li Weide, Tom, who was completely unaware of the situation, compared his own excited performance and suddenly felt a little ashamed of himself.

He felt that he should remain in this state of being calm in the face of praise or criticism at all times and in all places.

Otherwise, what's the difference between you and any other ordinary idiot by always making such a fuss?
"I, Tom, no matter where I am or who I am with, even if I am always suppressed by Levitra, I must become the most extraordinary one under Levitra!"

Tom looked at the books that had just been unpacked and wanted to pick up a few directly, but after taking a look at Li Weide, Tom withdrew his hand.

"Tom, what's wrong? Haven't you been longing for these books for a long time?" Li Weide was a little surprised by Tom's behavior.

"You choose first," said Tom calmly.

Li Weide said in surprise: "It's rare that you are so polite today."

"I'm not being polite, but... you are better than me, so when there are good things, you should have the right to choose first." Tom said calmly, "If one day I am better than you, I will not be polite to you!"

Li Weide could see that Tom was actually telling the truth this time.

I can only say... Tom is worthy of being a Slytherin. Although he is arrogant, he also has the characteristics of Slytherin - admiration for the strong.

They consider themselves strong, and therefore, they also admire those who are stronger than themselves.

Even Tom, who would become the famous Voldemort in the future, could not change his admiration for the strong after discovering that there were people stronger than himself.

After figuring it out, Li Weide did not refuse, but directly picked up a book "Defeating Black Magic" from the pile of books.

"Then I'll read this one first. Okay, I've finished choosing, you can take it."

After hearing what Li Weide said, Tom carefully selected several books that interested him the most from the pile of books.

After taking a quick look, Li Weide found that the books he had chosen were: "Common Spells and Curse Solutions", "Self-Defense Spell Collection", "Practical Defensive Magic and Its Control over Black Magic"...

Almost all of them are books about Defense Against the Dark Arts recommended by Dumbledore.

There is no doubt that what Tom is thinking about is how to become stronger quickly...

Suddenly, Li Weide put the book "Defeating the Black Magic" in front of Tom.

"what happened?"

"I suddenly remembered that I have something to do today. You can read the book first and return it to me when I come back." Li Weide said.

"Where are you going?" Tom was slightly stunned.

"I'm going to Diagon Alley with Toby. And do some shopping."

"What do you want to buy? Haven't we already bought everything we need?" Tom felt very surprised.

In theory, everything you want to buy has already been bought. If you really forgot something, most of them can actually be bought in Hogsmeade village.

Even if Hogsmeade didn't have it, Levitra could ask Toby to buy it for him, so he didn't need to go there himself...

Why waste time studying?

"I'm going to buy a few more second-hand wands. I need to be present in person to pick the one that suits me best." Levitra didn't hide it. "Don't we already have wands? Did you lose your wand?" Tom looked at Levitra in surprise.

"Of course not... In fact, I recently discovered a spell called the Flashback Spell, which can bring back the magic that the wand has recently released..." Levitra looked at Tom quietly, his black pupils becoming a little deeper. "And I don't really want others to know what magic I have recently cast through my wand."

Tom understood it all by now; in fact, he agreed with it!

Tom immediately put down the book in his hand and said, "I'll go too..."

"I also need another wand as a backup. I heard that new wands all have a magic called trace thread..."

"This is used by the Ministry of Magic to monitor students' spellcasting outside of school. Since we are not allowed to use wands after the holidays."

"This is such a stupid policy! I don't want to be left alone with my wand after the holidays."

Li Weide nodded, "If that's the case, let's go together..."

……

It should have been effortless for Toby to Apparate with the two little wizards.

But Levitra's magical power was no different from that of an adult wizard, so Toby had to take them to Diagon Alley in two batches.

Toby said: "You can buy almost all second-hand items in a junk shop. Although most of them are broken, sometimes people can find some good things in them."

He is very familiar with scrap shops.

Thinking back, his former master came here quite often...

Without staying anywhere else, the two people, plus a house-elf leading the way, arrived at the door of the scrap shop in just a few minutes.

"Okay, Toby, I have a list here. Please help me buy the items on it and then wait for us at the place where we just appeared."

Li Wei De took out a piece of paper and a bag of gold galleons and handed them to Toby.

"Yes, Master Wade!" Toby took it respectfully and disappeared on the spot.

"Tell me... when can we learn this kind of magic... where we can disappear with a snap?" Tom looked at the place where Toby disappeared with some envy.

"This magic seems to be called Apparition. However, the Apparition of house-elves is not the same as that of wizards. At our current age, we probably can't learn it yet."

Although Li Weide said this, he was indeed moved, just like Tom.

Tom is still young, and his magical powers are only at the level of an underage wizard. It is indeed not time for him to learn Apparition.

But Levid is different. He already has the magical power of an adult wizard, and after practicing, he can cast many advanced magics.

In other words, he can learn Apparition at any time now.

However, learning the art of Apparition carries a very high risk, and if one is not careful, it can easily lead to separation.

Generally, when wizards first start learning this magic, they need an experienced teacher to watch over them.

In case of separation, we can help him reconnect the separated bodies.

Li Weide secretly thought about who he should find to "protect" him if he really wanted to learn the Apparition.

It is absolutely not okay to practice alone.

He didn't want his head to be in one place and his body to be in another...
