The Dark Lord's Guide to Employment at Hogwarts

……

Charms classroom.

It’s not time for class yet.

Several people sat together.

"Welcome! Charlie, welcome to join us..." Alphard said happily.

Henry said, "Even though your words have insulted all the pure-blood wizards in Slytherin...including me, I have to admit that you are right. I also look down on those beasts who do things with their relatives for the sake of the purity of their family bloodline. So, welcome."

With this, another person was added to Li Weide's small group.

Li Weide sat aside and watched them silently, feeling that the surname Prince was somewhat familiar.

Suddenly, Li Weide asked, “Charlie, do you have other brothers and sisters at home?”

"Yes, I have a younger sister. Her name is Irene Prince and she is only eight years old."

Li Weide suddenly realized, no wonder it sounded so familiar...

Irene Prince was the mother of Professor Snape many years later!

Organizing the outline, I’m a bit stuck today, sorry!

Chapter 82 If the wand hadn’t cost money, he wouldn’t even bother to use it!

Li Weide remembered that Snape's parents were not happy in their married life and often quarreled.

It was under these circumstances that young Snape would often leave the house when his parents were arguing, and only then would he meet the girl named Lily...

However, even though he knew that Charlie's sister might meet the wrong person in the future, Li Weide did not intend to interfere.

Perhaps because of my arrival, many things will change in the future.

However, for this tragic professor... Li Weide still hopes that he can live out another possibility in this time and space.

"Speaking of my sister... She's a wizard like me. When she was five, I saw her make a kettle float." Charlie sighed. "If nothing unexpected happens, she might be sorted into Slytherin... You've seen the atmosphere in Slytherin now. I really don't want her to be bullied like me in the future..."

Although Slytherin does not only accept pure-bloods, it is a fact that pure-blood wizards make up the majority.

When there is a group that occupies the majority in a group, the minority will basically choose to obey.

Only in this way can they survive in the cracks.

The same is true for Snape. As a half-blood wizard, in such an environment, if he does not join the pure-blood circle and does not support their ideas, he will become the one who is bullied, and it will be impossible for him to study with peace of mind.

For the sake of peace and to gain the approval of the majority, he had no choice but to do this. However, the consequence of doing so was that he went from being the victim of bullying to being the bully. And then, over time, he slowly began to accept their ways...

It can be said that Snape was a dark person in the early days, and only after Lily's tragic death did he come to his senses.

But Charlie was a heretic among this group of people. From the very beginning, he did not agree with their so-called pure-blood supremacy.

Therefore, it was impossible for him to show the kind of submissiveness that these pure-bloods liked to see the most. It could be said that he was the opposite of Snape.

This is also the reason why he had a conflict with this group of purebloods just two or three days after school started.

Of course, this is also what Li Weide admires most about him, but not all eleven-year-old children have such courage.

Tom said calmly: "Bloodline is not the main factor that determines whether a person is noble...strength is."

"As long as you have enough power, who dares to say you are not noble?" Tom picked up a handkerchief and wiped his yew wand, and continued: "By that time, they won't even dare to call you by your name!"

“History is written by the victors. All the rules and regulations that are used to constrain people are made by the strong for the weak.”

"Now, these purebloods outnumber us and are more powerful than us. That's why they can claim purebloods are supreme in the academy. They also want non-purebloods to agree with them."

"However, once our power surpasses theirs, even if we declare that purebloods are maggots, they will have to kneel before us and accept this new title."

"So, Charlie...if you don't want yourself and your sister to continue being bullied, you have to become strong quickly."

Li Weide smiled and said, "Tom is right. It seems that what you have seen and heard recently has touched you deeply."

At this moment, Tom finally had some of the shadow of the future Voldemort.

"I think no one understands the importance of power more deeply than I do!" Tom glared at Li Weide fiercely.

If I could defeat this bastard, why would I be bullied by him like this!

"I will study hard! I want to let them know that even non-pure blood can be better than them!" Charlie said with full fighting spirit.

"Study hard?" Li Weide and Tom looked at each other and then smiled.

"What are you laughing at?" Charlie asked puzzledly.

"Just learning what you were taught in school is far from enough!" Li Weide said seriously, "Which of the magic those guys used when bullying others and fighting was taught in school?"

"The strengthening Tom just mentioned isn't the kind that makes you an excellent student. He's talking about becoming stronger in the truest sense! In other words, you have to become a better fighter!"

"When you face people like that, you have to fight back hard the way they fight you, until it hurts and makes them afraid."

"For reasonable people, we can certainly slowly reason with them."

"However, for unreasonable people like them, no matter how good your reason is, it is not as effective as fists and magic wands!"

After listening to what Livid and Tom said, Charlie imagined that he could single-handedly defeat all the troublemakers and make them admit that pure-blood supremacy was bullshit...

I can only say that just thinking about it makes me feel good. This kind of comfortable feeling can only be experienced by those who have been bullied by pure-bloods.

"But...what if I hurt them?" Charlie was still worried about this.

"See, I told you he's an honest man, right?" Li Weide laughed. "Many people are like this, afraid of the consequences of resistance. So, when faced with injustice, most choose to endure it silently. They think less trouble is worse than more, and that if they endure it, it will pass."

"I can't say this worry is wrong, but... since you're unwilling to swallow your anger and have decided to stand up and resist, then you shouldn't think about things the same way as before."

"Since those who bully you don't worry about the consequences of bullying you, why should you worry about the consequences of resisting?"

"If we really want to hold people accountable, don't those who started the trouble have to pay the price?"

"We may not initiate trouble, but we must never back down when faced with troublemakers!"

"Many times, you're bullied because the other party is certain you won't fight back due to various concerns. That's why they can bully you without paying any price!"

Li Weide asked again: "You should have heard about Slytherin being deducted 180 points."

Charlie nodded dumbly.

Li Weide patted Tom's shoulder. "That's because they decided to block the two of us on the way to the library, and then we fought them. As a result, almost all of them fell, and we were unscathed! Then, every time they saw us again, they would subconsciously be wary of us and no longer dare to bully us. Otherwise, how do you think we rescued you so easily today?"

"The price we paid for our counterattack was being caught by Professor McGonagall, and then having one hundred and eighty points deducted from our score along with the bully. Finally, we were given a month of detention. We didn't care, since we weren't the only ones in detention anyway."

"Although it seems like we were punished, this also taught those guys a lesson, letting them know that bullying others also comes at a price. I personally think it's well worth it!"

Tom snorted. "In fact, if this guy hadn't wanted to go to the Forbidden Forest to learn some new things, he wouldn't even have been punished..."

Li Weide and Tom's experience not only stunned Charlie, but also shocked Anne and others who had been listening to them talking.

"So... that 180 points was really yours!" Annie said in surprise.

"Didn't you notice? Wade and the other two knocked down those guys who came to block them!" Henry discovered the key to the matter.

"That's right!" Alphard said excitedly, "I heard that among those who had points deducted, there were several seniors... Oh, and Andre Shafik, who was frightened into a timid state by Wade today, is one of them!"

Anne pondered and said, "That's right. Because Andre was beaten by Wade and Tom, that's why he is so afraid of Wade and Tom!"

"So..." Henry concluded, "In other words, you two freshmen defeated a group of people who blocked your way, and some of them were senior students..."

Hearing this, Tom raised his head involuntarily.

He is actually very proud of being able to achieve such an outstanding result.

Of course, he also knew that if Li Weide hadn't come to help him in the end, his end might not have been good... He might still be lying in the school hospital...

Charlie and the others had no doubts about the performance of Li Weide and Tom.

Because when those people looked at the two of them today, the fear and dread in their eyes could not be faked.

If these two men hadn't hurt those guys, how could they have let Li Weide and the others take Charlie away so easily?

Charlie sighed, "How did you manage to be so good in just the first grade..."

"You can think of it as a gifted talent. I have a good memory and can easily master the knowledge I have read. Tom is almost the same. He learns magic very quickly." Li Weide explained casually.

Ancient magic and systems cannot be discussed, so just attribute everything to your own efforts.

Besides, Tom was not dead, and he was the one who knocked down most of those people.

So, it’s not wrong to say that they are both gifted.

Tom subconsciously looked at Li Weide again.

Before, he had been wondering why Li Weide was so strong.

At one point, people even thought that Li Weide was hiding some method that could help him become stronger quickly.

But now it seems... maybe it's due to his existing family background!

Yes, in fact, Tom never thought that what Li Weide said outside Platform 9 3/4 was false.

After dealing with these wizards from pure-blood families, Tom knew very well that although these guys were very weak, their families all had the background of being pure-blood families.

Almost every pure-blood family with a long history has a collection of magical knowledge, and some even have their own family-specific magic.

Tom felt that the reason why Li Weide was so strong was entirely because he came from an ancient pure-blood family!

With the background of a pure-blood family, if Li Weide had any ambition, he would not be on the same starting line with himself!

In fact, the reason why those pure-bloods who were defeated by him were so weak was because they were not motivated and did not cherish the resources given by their families.

Thinking about it this way, it makes perfect sense that Li Weide easily crushed me when they first met in the orphanage!

After Tom thought about this, he suddenly felt that he had hope of defeating Li Weide again!

Li Weide just ran away secretly!

My talent is no worse than his, and the distance between us will definitely get shorter and shorter!

"When I'm stronger than him, I'll make him call me daddy!"

Li Weide didn't know what Tom was thinking, he just felt that his eyes looked a little strange.

"Unfilial son, why are you looking at your father like that?"

"What the hell..."

……

The professor of Charms is Eulalie Hicks, who was recruited from Ilvermorny by Dumbledore himself.

As an experienced professor, her teaching is meticulous and patient.

According to the textbook, the first spell she taught her students was the Levitation Charm, the same spell that Professor Flitwick later taught.

This shows how slow the wizarding world is developing.

"Wingardim Leviosa!"

Anne looked at the feather floating in front of her with satisfaction.

"Excellent! Miss Rosier is the first to succeed! 5 points for Slytherin! Let me see, who's next?"

At this time, a feather also floated up from the Gryffindor side.

"Well, Miss McLaggen also succeeded! Excellent, smooth casting! Five points from Gryffindor!"

After hearing about the extra points, McLaggen, who had two pigtails, looked at Tom and Livid provocatively.

Tom smiled disdainfully. "What's there to be proud of?"

Then he raised his wand and whispered the spell.

The next second, the feather in front of him also floated up quickly.

"A very standard spell pause! A very precise casting action! Excellent! Mr. Riddle also succeeded! In view of his textbook-like standard casting action and spell pronunciation, Slytherin gets 5 points!"

McLaggen snorted in anger when he saw how easily Tom succeeded and even got extra points.

Beside Tom, Alphard and Henry, who were still struggling with failure, looked at Tom with envy.

All of Tom's operations were exactly the same as in the textbook, so standard that they couldn't be more standard, and he succeeded on the first try.

The feathers in front of them remained motionless no matter how hard they tried. At this moment, Li Weide was whispering the trick to them.

Charlie looked at them in confusion. Aren't these two pure-bloods? How come they couldn't even cast a levitation spell?

At this time, the feather in front of Charlie had also risen up shakily.
