The Dark Lord's Guide to Employment at Hogwarts

As the Resurrection Stone left her hand, Merope's figure suddenly disappeared.

"What on earth is going on? What on earth is going on?" Tom gasped, repeated the question, and then stared at Li Weide.

"That's the magic on this stone, Tom... It allows you to see the person you want to resurrect." Li Weide looked at Tom with a complicated expression. "So... you want to resurrect your mother?"

"No... I didn't..." Tom denied it flatly.

He looked up at Li Weide again, "Did you see your relatives too?"

"Me? Well... unfortunately, there's no one I want to resurrect..." Li Weide replied calmly.

Tom just felt that Li Weide didn't want to tell him. If he hadn't seen anything, how would he know that the magic of this stone was to summon the dead?

Li Weide looked at the Resurrection Stone lying quietly on the table. "What did your mother say to you? Why did you throw the stone away?"

This time, Tom was silent for a long time before he said softly, "Weide... the first thing she said when she saw me was, 'That coward!' She didn't even care whether I had lived well these years! She...she only had eyes for that coward!"

"Besides, don't you think she's too selfish? I...I don't want to grow up in an orphanage at all. If she didn't want to live anymore, why did she give birth to me?"

Li Weide silently picked up the Resurrection Stone and put it back in Tom's hands. "Since you want to know the answer, why don't you take this opportunity to ask her in person?"

Tom looked at the resurrection stone in his hand, then turned to look at the corner he had just been in.

Sure enough, Merope appeared there again.

At this moment, her face was full of sadness.

"Child, don't you want to see me anymore?" Merope said sadly.

Tom looked at Merope silently without answering her. After a moment, he turned his head and looked at Livid, "Is she serious?"

Li Weide shook his head. "I don't know either. Besides, only the person holding the stone can see it."

If it was before, he might have said it was fake, but... Tom clearly didn't turn the Resurrection Stone, and Merope appeared, so it's hard to say...

Tom turned to look at Merope. "Whether you're real or fake, you've disappointed me... Mother. How could you leave me in an orphanage and let me die alone? Have you never thought about me?"

Merope's lips trembled. "I... I had no other choice... I was in despair... I could no longer... I could no longer live. I was dying, Tom... I had lost the will to live..."

Tom said angrily, "Then why can't you regain even a little bit of the will to live for me? Or am I just a burden to you? How great it would be... After getting rid of this burden like me, you can die in peace, right?"

"No... No... My love for you hasn't diminished at all! It's just that I was already exhausted at that time. I used up my last bit of strength to give birth to you, and then used my last bit of ability to arrange a place for you... I just wanted you to have a place to stay after I died..."

Merope walked over with a sad face and reached out to touch Tom's cheek.

But Tom turned his head away.

"Arrange a place for me... do you mean abandoning me in an orphanage? Eleven years! I spent eleven years in an orphanage! Do you know how I spent those eleven years? If I hadn't awakened my ability as a wizard, do you know how dark my future would have been? I hate that place... Mother! If I had a choice, I would rather I had never been born!"

In Tom's heart, he always had a vague dissatisfaction with his mother.

After visiting the Riddle family, Tom's dissatisfaction with his mother reached its peak.

After he came back, he secretly thought about what would happen if his mother had not died in front of the orphanage.

If I were raised by my mother...

What would happen then?

Tom was sure that if he had known he was a wizard earlier and had been exposed to magic earlier.

With his abilities, he could definitely provide a good life for both mother and child! At least food and clothing wouldn't be a problem!

Even if you can't use magic to commit crimes, would it be difficult to use magic to get some food and clothes?

That way, he wouldn't have started so late...

At least, I won't be in an orphanage, not knowing anything, and then being stepped on by Li Weide...

Merope apologized sadly and feebly, "I'm sorry... child... I'm sorry, I... I don't expect you to forgive me, but... at least, let me look at you again."

Tom took a deep breath and said, "Enough... Really enough..."

He took one last, deep look at his mother and put the Resurrection Stone back on the table.

As the Resurrection Stone was placed down, Merope disappeared from the house.

He raised his head and looked at Li Weide, who had been standing aside without saying a word. "This stone...you can take it. I...I don't want it anymore."

Li Weide looked at Tom in surprise. "Why bother? Tom... Since you can see your mother, it proves that you want to resurrect her. In other words, you are not completely without feelings for her..."

"Really? I don't know... but I don't want to see her again..." Tom said, without even looking at the Resurrection Stone, he turned and walked upstairs.

"Tom...even if you don't want to see your mother again, you don't want this Gaunt family ring anymore? Isn't this your heirloom?" Li Weide asked as he picked up the Resurrection Stone.

"No... after all, it's the Gaunt family's stuff! In the future, I will naturally have my own family stuff to pass down! Starting from my generation!" Tom said, and went upstairs without looking back.

"Tsk tsk, young man, you are still too impulsive." Li Weide said with emotion, and his eyes returned to the resurrection stone in his hand.

Although no one knows what accident happened just now, which caused Tom to behave abnormally when holding the resurrection stone.

But there is no doubt that the Resurrection Stone is indeed a good thing.

According to Levid's memory, Grindelwald once thought about collecting the three holy artifacts, and his purpose in collecting the Resurrection Stone seemed to be to create an army of zombies.

In other words, this thing can also create Yin corpses?

Li Weide remains skeptical about this because there is no record of this in "The Tales of Beedle the Bard".

Thinking of this, Li Weide ran back to his room and took out a book called "The Stories of Beethoven the Poet" from the bookshelf.

He bought this out of curiosity before, and now it comes in handy.

He looked at the inscription "Peverell" on the Resurrection Stone and flipped through the story collection to the page of "The Tale of the Three Brothers".

Then he put down the Resurrection Stone, took out a piece of parchment and began to write a letter.

After he finished writing, he called Toby over and handed him the letter.

"Give the letter to Professor Dumbledore. You know where he is now."

……

Dumbledore was still busy in his office in Hogwarts Castle.

However, Levid sent a house-elf to deliver a letter to him.

Originally Dumbledore thought it was just some trivial matter.

However, after reading the letter, Dumbledore immediately quit his current job and rushed directly from the fireplace in his office to Levid's safe house as quickly as possible!

Resurrection Stone!

The Resurrection Stone, one of the Three Deathly Hallows!

The Three Deathly Hallows hold great significance for both him and Grindelwald.

If the Deathly Hallows Grindelwald wanted most was the Elder Wand, then the Deathly Hallows he wanted most was the Resurrection Stone...

He dreamed of seeing his sister and his parents again...

Then tell them in person...

sorry!

Chapter 128 Tom, he doesn’t understand love?

Dumbledore arrived so quickly that even Levid was surprised.

Dumbledore arrived just minutes after the house-elf had Apparated away.

From this we can see how anxious he is.

Levander welcomed Dumbledore into his room.

"Wade...where is the thing you were talking about?" Dumbledore started asking as soon as he entered the room.

Levander had never seen Dumbledore so anxious before.

This is not surprising. In the original timeline, after seeing the Resurrection Stone, he actually forgot that it was Voldemort's Horcrux and put it on his hand without any precautions. As a result, he was cursed and his life was reduced to only one year...

"Here." Li Weide pointed to the resurrection stone on the table.

Dumbledore recognized it immediately. It was a gem taken from the Gaunt family heirloom ring that Tom had won.

"Tom and I wanted to see if there was any special magic on this ring, and then... I discovered the inscription on it. I happened to have read this story in The Tales of Beedle the Bard. So we gave it a try..."

"Peverell..."

Dumbledore picked up the Resurrection Stone, gently stroked the inscription on it with his fingers, his eyes very complicated.

In fact, when he first saw the ring at Gaunt's house, he felt that the stone on the ring was a little special.

However, this was something Tom had won at the risk of his life, so he didn't dare to ask to borrow it.

And now, the two children have discovered the secret of the ring themselves.

"Where's Tom?" Dumbledore only then realized that Tom, who had always been hanging out with Lewd, was missing.

Li Weide pointed in the direction of Tom's room. "He's in his room now, trying to calm down. He...he just used the Resurrection Stone once, and it seems he saw his mother."

"He should be very happy, finally getting to see his mother..." Dumbledore asked somewhat presumptuously.

"No... He was very sad. He asked his mother why she didn't live for him. Why did she give birth to him and then abandon him to an orphanage... In the end, he gave me this stone. He said he didn't want to see his mother again." Li Weide leaned on the edge of the table and shrugged.

Dumbledore was very surprised by this. "Tom... Alas, I should have known about his inner repression earlier. I originally thought... that he didn't understand what love was, but now it seems... I misunderstood him. He just hid this emotion."

"I think he just lacks guidance, professor. Don't worry, I'm here." Li Weide said confidently.

"With you here, I feel really relieved. In fact, I've seen Tom's changes. His changes are indeed inseparable from you. I'm glad that Tom met you..."

"Professor, you are too kind. Ahem, let's talk about this stone... Professor, do you think the stories in this collection are true? Is this 'Resurrection Stone' really made by the God of Death?" asked Li Weide.

Dumbledore looked at the Resurrection Stone carefully, feeling the traces of magic on it.

"In my opinion, the story might not be true. The Grim Reaper might not exist. Those three brothers were probably just three powerful wizards who each created three powerful magical items... Yes, I can still feel the extremely powerful magical fluctuations from this Resurrection Stone..."

Dumbledore looked at Lewd and said sincerely, "Wade, can you let me try it now? I... am sorry to say, but I really can't wait to try it. I... have any questions, I can answer them for you later."

"Of course!" Li Weide looked at his room, "Well... the environment here is a bit small, do you need to go to the yard outside?"

"it is good……"

Compared to Tom, Dumbledore wanted to see two more people, and Levitra's small room might not be able to accommodate them...

The safe house has its own yard, and the yard and the house are integrated, both of which are cast with the Fidelius Charm.

In other words, as long as you stay inside the fence, people outside, even if they are leaning on the fence, cannot see the scene in the yard.

At this time, Dumbledore was already standing in the center of the yard.

He stared blankly at the Resurrection Stone in his hand.

The thing he once longed for was now in his hands. At this moment, he actually had a feeling similar to homesickness.

Li Weide stood quietly aside, without saying a word.

Normally, he should have avoided it and let Dumbledore face it on his own.

However, Levid was eager to hear more... He really wanted to know what Dumbledore would say after seeing his deceased relatives.

Anyway... Dumbledore didn't let him back off...

He didn't have to wait long. A moment later, Dumbledore took the Resurrection Stone in his hand and gently turned it three times.

Then, Levid saw Dumbledore froze, tears instantly welling up in his blue eyes.

Li Weide stood in the corner, still feeling a little regretful.

It would be nice if he could also see Dumbledore's vision. If he could only see Dumbledore talking to himself, it would be a little less interesting...

Suddenly, Li Weide remembered the scene when he used the Resurrection Stone just now. At that time, a white mist first appeared around him. He wondered if Tom had seen it too...

However, he always felt that the white mist was very similar to the white mist he had seen when he used nightmare magic to enter a dream.

Thinking of this, Li Weide quietly released a trace of his nightmare magic power, and then covered his eyes...

This was one of the uses of Nightmare Magic. Originally used to spy on other people's dreams, one simply covered their eyes with Nightmare Magic, then looked at the sleeping person and could see what they were dreaming about...

But now, this magic was used here by Li Weide.

What Li Weide didn't expect was that this action, which he just tried, actually worked!

In his field of vision, several figures appeared around Dumbledore.

Although these figures were still a little blurry in his vision, he could see them clearly!
