The Dark Lord's Guide to Employment at Hogwarts

"How... did you do it?" Tom couldn't help but ask in a low voice.

Li Weide smiled and said, "Tom, you know me. When you knew me, I liked to experiment with all kinds of magic. So, it's not surprising that I might come up with one or two magic tricks that you haven't seen before, right?"

Tom was speechless.

While he was still working hard to learn various magics in the hope of becoming stronger quickly, Li Weide had already developed new magics.

And he also witnessed the power of Li Wei De's new magic...

Faced with such a monster, I still have the delusion that I can catch up with it?

Tom couldn't help laughing at himself.

At this moment, Tom's previous fighting spirit had been completely destroyed by Li Weide.

"Tom, you seem a little depressed?" Li Weide suddenly said, "Are you planning to give up?"

"What else can I do if I don't give up? I... I have no other choice..."

"That's not something you'd say, Tom," Livid said with a bored look on his face. "The Tom I know isn't the kind of man who gives up when faced with difficulties. He'll just endure it first, and then, at the right moment, bite his enemy's throat like a venomous snake, delivering a fatal blow!"

Tom looked at Li Weide in astonishment.

He didn't understand why Li Weide told him all this. He had already planned to give up and would never dare to challenge his authority again...

Isn't Li Weide trying to boost his fighting spirit by saying this?

Li Weide continued, "Tom, I know your abilities... I'm really looking forward to seeing what surprises you can bring me in the future."

Tom couldn't help but feel angry when he heard this.

Does Li Weide feel that he has no ability to threaten him at all, so he just treats himself as a joke?

Are you thinking of yourself as a clown who overestimates your own abilities?

Li Weide, who possessed great strength, stood on a high mountain, and from the top of the mountain, he watched himself shouting at him like a clown at the foot of the mountain...

This thought made Tom's resentment reach its peak.

"You will definitely see the surprise I prepared for you in the future!" Tom said word by word.

Li Weide smiled and said, "Again, I'm very much looking forward to it, Tom."

In Li Weide's eyes, Tom is his best tool for gaining merit points.

We can’t let him be hit too hard and become depressed, so we have to stimulate him like this.

It now seems that the effect is very good.

Suddenly, Alphard, who was next to Tom, said, "You two have such a great relationship. My sister never encourages me."

Tom was slightly stunned when he heard this, "Encouragement?"

"Yeah, wasn't Wade encouraging you just now? If she were my sister, she would have criticized me to pieces." Alphard said helplessly.

Tom frowned and looked at Li Weide again. At this time, Li Weide was chatting with an unfamiliar senior student next to him and was not paying attention to the situation here.

Tom couldn't help but recall what Li Weide said, and suddenly felt a little confused.

Could it be that what Li Weide said just now was really just to encourage himself?

Clowns and such... am I just being too sensitive and overthinking things?

At this moment, Tom couldn't help but recall everything that happened after he met Li Weide.

Then he fell silent again.

Because he found that after getting to know Li Weide, although he tried to plot against Li Weide many times, Li Weide's revenge was always a small punishment or a big warning.

For example, today, I wanted to find someone to beat him up, but his revenge only embarrassed me. Apart from that, he could be said to be unharmed.

Moreover, he has never forgotten what benefits he has gained.

For example, when Levitra asked Dumbledore for a book, he also asked for one for him...

To be honest, if it were him, and he met someone who was much weaker than him and kept provoking him, he would have found a way to kill the other person long ago!

There is no way he can get along with me like Li Weide does!

Could it be that... although Li Weide seems to have many conflicts with me on the surface, in fact, he really regards me as a friend?

Could it be that I have really misunderstood him all along?

Thinking of this, Tom was really confused.

On the other side, Li Weide, who was chatting enthusiastically with his senior, had no idea that in these few short minutes, a very subtle change had taken place in Tom's heart.

At this time, Annie ran over and sat next to Li Weide excitedly.

"Vade, Tom, I knew you were Slytherins too!"

Anne was sorted after Tom.

After Tom's farce, Dumbledore carefully checked the Sorting Hat and confirmed that there was no problem before continuing the Sorting Ceremony.

Therefore, it was not until this time that Anne completed the sorting ceremony and was successfully sorted into Slytherin.

Li Weide moved aside a little without making a sound, but the smile on his face was still warm.

"It's great that we can be in the same college. You don't know, I was a little worried that I would be assigned to another college."

Anne said, "You don't have to worry about that. You're definitely a Slytherin. I'm a very accurate judge of people. But... Tom, how did you get the Sorting Hat to put you in Azkaban just now?"

Tom hadn't recovered from his complicated thoughts yet. When he heard Anne's question, he subconsciously shook his head and said, "I don't know..."

Annie said in surprise, "You actually answered me! We've known each other for hours, and you've never spoken to me before!"

"Tom is just not good at talking to girls. It doesn't mean he has any opinion about you, Annie." Li Weide said with a smile.

Tom looked at Li Weide with a strange look.

Li Weide had spoken up for him many times before, but he had never thought much about it before, thinking it was just Li Weide's bad taste.

But now, after Alphard's reminder, Tom's thoughts were completely different from before.

It seems... Li Weide really treats me as a friend...

Otherwise, why would you always protect me intentionally or unintentionally?

Friends...So I can have friends too?

Chapter 68 Are you the famous little prince of Azkaban?

After the sorting ceremony, Principal Dippet did not give any long speech.

Instead, he stood up and said loudly: "Welcome! Dinner is ready!"

Such a clear and concise speech received thunderous applause from everyone.

The dinner for the opening ceremony looked very sumptuous.

But after tasting it, Li Weide still felt a little disappointed.

The cooking skills of the Hogwarts house-elves are actually quite good, but it's a pity that their recipes are a bit lame...

Everyone ate and talked, and soon they were full.

Principal Dippet was as straightforward as ever.

After the tableware on the long table became as clean as new again.

He announced again in a crisp and clear voice, "Dismissed! Go back and rest! Follow your respective prefects and don't go the wrong way."

Li Wei De and the dazed Tom followed the group of Slytherin students forward.

Soon, they found themselves heading underground into the castle.

A few minutes later, the freshmen followed the class leader to a stone wall with a snake statue carved on it.

"Pureblood!" said the male prefect as he approached the stone wall.

The two snake statues on the stone wall immediately came to life.

As the snake-like statue swam to the side, the stone wall suddenly split apart, revealing a door...

"Everyone, remember, this week's password is 'Pure Blood'. Don't forget. If you forget, you won't be able to get in."

Pure blood? Hearing this slogan, Li Weide felt that he was indeed worthy of being a Slytherin.

People from Slytherin always have a special obsession with power.

So, after entering the common room, the arrogant male prefect gave a half-hour speech to the freshmen...

It was not until many freshmen were so tired that they almost fell asleep while standing that he waved his hand contentedly and told them to find their own rooms to rest.

Then he walked slowly towards his dormitory.

"Tsk... this guy's speech is longer than the principal's, and it doesn't have any substance at all." Annie said impatiently.

She was very unhappy with the prefect for delaying her break.

"Well, we should go find our rooms. See you tomorrow..."

After saying good night to each other, they parted ways.

Annie walked towards the girls' dormitory, while Li Weide and the others walked towards the boys' dormitory.

Soon, Li Weide found his dormitory.

The dormitory is a hexagonal room with four beds placed against the wall, each with a wardrobe and bedside table.

In the middle of the dormitory, there is a large round table, which seems to be just enough space for four people to do their homework at the same time.

Their luggage had been moved to the foot of the bed.

Fortunately, Li Weide and Tom were assigned to the same dormitory.

In addition to Li Weide and Tom, the other two roommates were Alphard Black and a boy named Henry Avery.

As soon as Alphard found his bed, he lay down on it, and fell into a deep sleep without even taking off his coat.

I don't know why, but he looks particularly tired.

"Ha! You are the famous little prince of Azkaban! I didn't expect that I would be in the same dormitory with you! My name is Henry Avery." Henry Avery stretched out his right hand excitedly after seeing Tom.

When Tom heard the title of Prince of Azkaban, he gave Henry a death stare and had no intention of shaking hands with him.

Li Weide stretched out his hand and shook hands with Henry, saving Henry from the embarrassing situation.

"I'm a friend of the little prince of Azkaban. My name is Lewes. Oh, by the way, his name is..."

Henry smiled and said, "I know, his name is Tom Riddle! There are probably not many people or ghosts in the school who don't know his name."

Tom's face turned green when he heard the conversation between Henry and Li Weide.

I had finally forgotten some of my socially unsuccessful experiences, but now that these two bastards mentioned it, I completely remembered it!

"I'm going to sleep!" Tom turned over and fell on his bed, then pulled the quilt to cover himself completely.

Li Weide and Henry watched silently as Tom gradually shrank into a ball under the quilt...

"Well, I think I understand the feeling... I have to say, it wasn't very pleasant, um... very embarrassing." Henry shrugged. "I was only eight years old at the time, and my mom caught me peeping at my sister taking a bath..."

Li Weide looked at Henry in shock. There was actually a master?

……

The night is getting darker.

However, Slytherin's dormitory is right at the bottom of the Black Lake.

Therefore, Li Weide could only see the fish swimming at the bottom of the lake through the window, but could not see the moonlight in the sky.

However, the scenery at the bottom of the Black Lake is still quite interesting.

Li Weide admired the scenery at the bottom of the lake for a while before pulling the quilt over and lying down.

After sitting on the train for a whole day, he felt a little tired.

Also, I am not very familiar with the way to Hogwarts Castle.

Therefore, he did not plan to go out for a night out tonight to look for his senior's notebook.

Before entering the dream to find his senior, Li Weide took a look at the system interface.

I plan to follow the routine and see if there are any good things updated tonight.
