Hogwarts: Hermione and I switched identities!

Tom wanted to laugh, but he had to hold it in.

……

When Tom returned to Hogwarts, Ravenclaw and Hermione had been waiting for a long time.

Hermione showed no impatience when she saw Tom return; instead, she looked at him with curiosity and asked, "Where did you go?"

And when did you find a teacher? How exactly did you find one? Why don't I know anything about it?

She could have switched identities with Tom and lived Tom's life, but over that long period of time, Hermione found that she seemed to have never met Tom's teacher.

It could even be said that he was completely unaware of their teacher; if that incident hadn't happened, he might never have known that Tom even had a teacher.

Before Tom could answer, Ravenclaw patted his new student on the head: "No, no, no, little Crane, you have to understand, there are some people who, if they don't want to reveal their identities, you'll never know them no matter what."

For example, if I hadn't appeared before you today, how many people do you think would still believe that the name Ravenclaw exists in this world?

If you encounter someone like this, either build a good relationship with them or never have any interaction with them.

Their terror is incomparable to that of a mere Voldemort.

"Now I will lead you to the realm of the God of Memory."

Hermione Tom listened to Ravenclaw's words, opened his mouth, and uttered an incredulous sound: "God?"

"I will explain to you on the way."

Tom, the places where the God of Memory and the Grim Reaper live are a little different. Your family member has their own unique domain, but the God of Memory is different.

His domain doesn't exist in another dimension; it still exists in this world, only it has special restrictions that prevent others from entering.

"The realm of the God of Memory, is it in this world?"

Ravenclaw nodded, then put a finger to his lips: "You must remember to keep this a secret. You absolutely cannot tell anyone, and I mean anyone."

Although it was Hermione's first time encountering something like gods, she still realized Ravenclaw's seriousness and understood the gravity of the situation, so she quickly covered her mouth.

……

Meanwhile, a newspaper article has been fully published.

Voldemort, in the Shrieking Shack, received a brand new newspaper. He slowly unfolded it, looked at the news at the top, and felt as if he had heard a joke.

But the joke happened to appear in the newspaper, and Tom was one of the main characters.

Once you get involved with Tom, all the absurd news suddenly becomes real.

Voldemort knew this clearly, so he also knew about the photograph in the newspaper—the witch posing with Tom Hermione.

The word "Ravenclaw" was written in large letters above the witch's head. Anyone else would have thought this was absurd news, but Tom was there.

"Ravenclaw is actually still alive." Voldemort's face was grim.

He didn't know what was wrong with this world, why so many people who should have died suddenly stood up again, and each one of them had a more terrifying identity than the last.

King Arthur, who has been dead for countless years, and Ravenclaw, who founded Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry.

These names originally existed only in legends, but now they have all appeared.

If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, Voldemort would never have believed the newspaper's authenticity.

"Where did this Tom come from?" Voldemort couldn't help but smack his lips.

It seems that ever since Tom officially started making his reappearance in the wizarding world, a whole host of monsters and demons have suddenly appeared.

Voldemort rubbed his forehead, feeling only a sense of relief. He was glad he hadn't been resurrected so early. Voldemort couldn't even believe what these old guys would do to him if he were fully resurrected at this point.

Ravenclaw might just twist his head off, especially since he bullied Tom... although he didn't really bully him, he did try to kill Tom at one point.

If his Horcrux had caused Tom trouble, would King Arthur have killed him on the spot?

If King Arthur were to intervene personally, it's likely that none of his Horcruxes would be saved.

Voldemort didn't believe that he could have any secrets in the eyes of these wizards.

He could maintain his mystique around the weak and ordinary, but with these legendary wizards, Voldemort felt like nothing more than a clown.

The reason why he didn't show up for so long was simply because he wasn't qualified enough. Even if he killed hundreds of people, he still wasn't qualified to make these wizards show up.

From this perspective...

Voldemort couldn't help but mutter a curse under his breath: "Damn it, they say Harry is the savior of the world, but compared to Tom, what is Harry?"

Savior? Your savior is nothing compared to others!

The true savior already has a stronger teacher and has already learned most of the magic. He's nothing like Harry, who's still playing house at Hogwarts.

Voldemort suddenly thought of Isabel, who had just joined the Death Eaters.

Isabel is Tom's woman, and so is Hermione.

He increasingly hoped that his plan would come to fruition. The final item on his plan was to recruit Tom into the Death Eaters, even if he became the new Dark Lord in the future, it didn't matter.

If Tom joins Voldemort, He Ming will come along too.

Voldemort dared not even imagine how powerful the Death Eaters would be if these people came. How strong would their backers be?

In the entire wizarding world, who dares to offend the Death Eaters!

Just as Voldemort was still pondering these things, a Death Eater quietly approached him, bent down, and whispered in Voldemort's ear, "Master, Lady Isabel doesn't seem to be in a good mood today."

Voldemort suppressed his fantasies and glanced coldly at the man: "Isabelle is in a bad mood, so give her what she wants. What's the use of telling me?"

Could I use magic to make Isabel feel better?

That's why I said you're a bunch of good-for-nothing idiots. You can't even do something this simple right. What is there that you're capable of doing well?

Faced with Voldemort's questioning, the Death Eater could only lower his head and respectfully explain to Voldemort, "But Master, we seem to already know the reason why Lady Isabel is in a bad mood."

only……"

"But what?"

"It seems we can't help him solve this."

Voldemort frowned: "A bunch of idiots! Now that you know the reason, why can't you help him solve it? Didn't I tell you? We need to do everything we can to win Isabel over and make her truly one of us!"

The Death Eater coughed and said, "Master, if we're not mistaken, the reason Isabel is unhappy is because Tom and Hermione took a picture together at Hogwarts."

As you know, Master, Lady Isabel has a special relationship with Tom... but Hermione's appearance makes Isabel feel uneasy, yet she is helpless.

We can't just go and kill Hermione, can we? We can't afford to offend either Hermione or Isabel.

Upon hearing this, Voldemort rubbed his temples.

You know what, it's really true.

He turned his gaze to the newspaper in his hand, looking at the photo of Tom and Hermione.

There's really nothing we can do about this situation.

"Can't you just let him vent his anger? Don't come to me with these kinds of trivial matters anymore. Use your brains to figure things out yourselves. What am I supposed to do with you if you make me do everything?"

Voldemort, disregarding everything else, continued to berate his Death Eaters.

If you can't meet my requirements, that's your problem. Don't worry about what Isabel does!

Of course, Voldemort knew that even if he personally took to the field, he wouldn't do any better than these Death Eaters. However, as the Dark Lord, he had to maintain his seriousness and his authority.

……

On the other side, Hermione and her two companions had arrived in a new area.

Even as wizards, all they faced was a cliff.

Standing on the edge of the cliff, He Ming hesitated to take a step.

"This is where our master lives. Hermione, this will also be your future home. Just jump down without worry, nothing will happen."

Even so...

Hermione shrank back slightly, somewhat hesitant to carry out Ravenclaw's orders.

Immediately afterwards, Hermione saw Tom take a step in front of her and step into the precipice.

In the blink of an eye, as if by magic, Tom vanished completely before his eyes.

Hermione's eyes lit up instantly.

Chapter 164 Winning Over

Hermione's throat bobbed as she watched Tom disappear right before her eyes.

Behind this cliff, there really are some secrets hidden.

He took a small step, his foot hovering in the air, but after a short while, Hermione pulled her foot back.

Below him lay a bottomless abyss, and he was still somewhat hesitant.

But Ravenclaw patted Hermione on the shoulder from behind and pushed her off.

Hermione stumbled, her foot slamming hard into the ground.

On the ground...?

Suddenly, the surrounding environment changed drastically. He turned his head and saw that the cliff that had just been behind him had vanished.

A field of flowers came into his view, and he trampled it under his feet.

Delicate white flowers nestled against Hermione's boots as she was surprised to find that the path she had come from had vanished.

Having experienced time travel, Hermione had a similar feeling when she first stepped into this area. It was as if her vision had suddenly blurred for a moment, and when she opened her eyes again, she was already in this place.

He looked at Tom standing not far in front of him, who seemed to be used to all of this and did not show any of his embarrassment.

Ravenclaw arrived shortly after and laughed beside Hermione: "This is where we'll be living from now on."

In a moment, I'll teach you a teleportation spell. From then on, even if you're at Hogwarts, you can use teleportation to come back. You won't need to come all the way here anymore.

Ravenclaw smiled slightly: "It's quite normal for everyone who enters this area at first to feel some fear."

However, I think you'll adapt quickly, after all, as you know, the wizarding world is usually full of mystery.

Some powerful wizards can even do things that are more unbelievable.

Although Ravenclaw didn't say what those wizards could do, Hermione no longer cared about it.
