Hogwarts: This Dark Lord is so evil.

Chapter 546 Tom: Ugly devil, your magic is inferior to mine.
"Oh dear, this is a bit difficult," Li Weide said, looking quite troubled.

Actually, this is not difficult to handle at all.

Although altering too many parallel worlds would hasten the invasion of Hell, the virus that Li Wade prepared for the demons had already been planted in the past, bringing time back.

He said that simply to test Tom's resolve.

Tom sneered, "Difficult? If it's difficult, then..."

"What, you want to overturn the table with me too?" Li Weide glanced at him sideways.

Tom shrank back. "It's not that bad... but you should still let me go! I won't be able to sleep if I don't beat him up today!"

"Well..." Li Weide still seemed hesitant.

"Please! Let me go! If you let me go, I'll do anything you ask of me from now on!"

Tom couldn't stand Voldemort's incessant bullying of the children in the arena anymore...

Bullying the weak is so damn shameful!
Most importantly, this ugly guy was actually himself!
"Alright... seeing you like this, I can't bear it either, so go ahead." Li Weide said helplessly, spreading his hands. "Oh dear, you've really gotten me into trouble now... tsk tsk tsk..."

Li Weide's sighs and groans were very realistic, but Tom didn't believe a single punctuation mark.

If doing this would really ruin Li Weide's life, even if I knelt down in front of him and kowtowed until I passed out, he still wouldn't agree!

This guy is the kind of person who won't act until he sees a clear benefit!

"This...can he really do it? That's Voldemort at his peak...he looks even stronger than he did back then!" James was somewhat skeptical of Tom's abilities.

Although Tom is Voldemort in his younger days, he is still young, so how could he possibly defeat Voldemort in his full form after returning to his peak?
“Mr. Potter, in fact, the young man standing in front of you is the true complete one,” Li Weide said with a smile.

James seemed to understand but not quite.

Lily tugged at his arm. "What you mean is that Tom's soul is complete now, while Voldemort's soul, who created the Horcrux, is completely incomplete."

“That’s right… A wizard’s power originates from his soul. Voldemort, who only has a remnant soul, will always have a limit. If a complete soul and a remnant soul collide, under the condition of equal magic power, the complete soul will definitely win. So, don’t worry about Tom, he can handle it.”

"Then I'm going..." Tom wiped his wand, ready to go and fight.

But the unexpected events at the cemetery surprised him, and he stopped in his tracks.

"Stab!"

At that moment, Voldemort's Killing Curse collided with Harry's Disarming Curse! The welding competition begins!
"Huh? This isn't magical at all... When did the Disarming Curse become able to go head-to-head with the Killing Curse? And... even with such a huge disparity in strength between the two sides." Tom was also a little confused.

"Because their wands are brother wands, both using the tail feathers from Dumbledore's phoenix as their cores. So, when the wands collide, some strange changes occur; otherwise, Harry would already be dead by now," Li Wade explained from the side.

"Never mind..." Tom was about to move forward when Li Weide stopped him.

"how?"

“Wait a moment…” Li Wade turned to James and Lily, “Soon, these two wands of the same origin will enter a flashback state. Your phantoms will appear as a result… However, I can intervene slightly so that you can speak to Harry beforehand.”

Tom said with dissatisfaction, "The history of this world is about to change, and you still care about this? Why don't you just take down Voldemort, and then let the Potters talk to that child?"

“Sigh… okay, okay…” Li Weide shook his head helplessly, “I originally thought adding this scene would be quite touching.”

"Buzz!"

A buzz sounded.

To Voldemort's incredulous gaze, his wand flashed back in time.

First appeared was Cedric's spirit, followed by James and Lily...

"What... what's going on?" The Potters stared blankly at their souls in the distance.

Li Weide said, "Well, this is a parallel world. In this world, you are indeed dead; these are your spirits in this world. But... isn't Harry from the other world your child?"

Upon hearing this, the Potters also stopped in their tracks.

That being said, since those two are Harry's parents in this world... this is a precious opportunity for them to see their child again, so why should we be in such a hurry?

but……

"In our world..."

“I’ve already made some interventions in your world. Some changes will occur afterward, and your children shouldn’t have to suffer as much as Harry did in this world. Once things are settled here, I’ll send you back… In fact, the purpose of bringing you to this world was to show you how the world would develop without my intervention…” Li Wade calmly gazed at the Potters.

The Potters now understood that the reason Li Wade brought them here, even though it was a parallel world, was essentially to witness events from the future...

Li Weide is emphasizing his role! He's also urging them to remember this kindness! So that when they need help in the future, they can give it their all!

However, the Potters understood this perfectly; if they were in their shoes, they would certainly have done the same if they had the means.

Lily said in surprise, "You're sending us back right after this is over? Didn't you say you'd only go after that matter was finished..."

"The plan has changed. Your individual strength is too little of a help to me... I hope to receive help from your entire world. The specifics will be explained to you by Hydra representatives once you return to your original world. So, congratulations, you will soon be reunited with your children..."

Li Weide recalled the revised plan he had made.

He planned to return everyone who could be put back, since these people were from other worlds, and their reappearance would enhance Hydra's persuasiveness. Then, by coordinating with Hydra companies in various worlds, he could consolidate global power.

If peaceful integration is not possible, then armed rule will suffice! As long as Hydra's image remains positive and it brings positive influence to those worlds, there will definitely be more supporters than opponents.

Aside from Dumbledore's family, he planned to do the same for everyone he saved in other worlds.

James and Lily hugged each other, unable to hold back their tears of joy.

at this time……

"Snapped!"

"No!" Voldemort roared in despair.

In the distance, Harry, taking advantage of the obstruction of his loved ones' spirits, successfully touched the Triwizard Tournament trophy and, using the Portkey, escaped with Cedric's body!
“Oh dear, it seems you’ll have to wait until next time to talk to Harry,” Li Wade couldn’t help but say.

"It's okay, we can wait!"

James and Lily knew they would be reunited with their son soon, so they didn't mind waiting a little longer.

At this point, after Voldemort had dispersed the spirits of the dead, he could only watch helplessly as Harry escaped!

All the Death Eaters watched this scene with expressions of horror.

Undoubtedly, a few unfortunate souls will be used as punching bags next...

If you're lucky, you might just have to tough it out with the Crucifixion Curse; if you're unlucky... a Killing Curse will end your sinful life.

Just as Voldemort's red eyes began to fixate on his useless servants.

suddenly……

"What are you howling about? It's so late at night, it's making so much noise!"

With the Death Eaters trembling and not daring to utter a word, the voice was especially jarring in the graveyard!
Everyone looked back to see who was fearless enough to die!
Voldemort squinted, looking behind the crowd...

Beside his father's tombstone stood a young man.

The Death Eaters raised their wands, pointing them at him. But the young man remained unfazed, and instead slowly walked towards them…

Voldemort looked at the familiar figure with a puzzled expression, and slowly walked forward to get a better look.

Of course, the Death Eaters couldn't hold back any longer.

Someone is insulting the beloved Dark Lord! If they stand there stupidly, Voldemort will surely kill them!

Keep in mind that Voldemort was already furious when Harry escaped!
Instantly, dozens of magical spells rained down on the young man!
However, the young man completely ignored the curses and walked forward as if nothing had happened.

"He...aren't he going to block it?" James stared in shock at Tom's pretentious behavior.

With so many people attacking, even Dumbledore would have to raise his wand to defend himself, right?

Li Weide shrugged. "I gave him an alchemical tool... I reckon he's already figured out how to use it."

No sooner had he finished speaking than the spells were already upon Tom!
"Puff puff!"

However, to the astonishment of all the Death Eaters, the spells were blocked by an invisible force as soon as they approached Tom!
A young man, when faced with an attack of dozens of spells, blocked them all without even taking out his wand!
This scene shocked all the Death Eaters present, leaving them speechless. Their attacks ceased as they stared in disbelief at the excessively strong young man before them.

Tom looked calmly at Voldemort in the distance, his pace not slowing down in the slightest!
In fact, he was far less calm than he appeared... When the spell was about to hit him, his heart was practically in his throat!
Fortunately, the Hogyoku that Li Weide gave him did not disappoint him!
The powerful magic provided by the Hogyoku allowed him to perfectly replicate the scene of Li Weide showing off in the training room, and then successfully stunned everyone.

It can be said that the existence of the Hogyoku directly compensated for Tom's weakness of insufficient magical power.

Otherwise, facing so many Death Eaters and the powerful Voldemort, no matter how skilled Tom was, he wouldn't dare to be the one to take the lead...

After all, he only had one magic wand.

As Tom approached, the Death Eaters involuntarily stepped aside, making way for him.

At this moment, Voldemort finally got a clear look at the young man's face.

"You... how is this possible!"

Because this young man looked so much like Voldemort when he was young, Voldemort was already beginning to suspect that he might have unknowingly had close contact with a female Death Eater and fathered such a son...

At this moment, some Death Eaters who had seen Voldemort in his youth recognized him—this young man looked exactly like the Dark Lord in his youth! Their pupils dilated in shock!

Holy crap! Does the Dark Lord have a son?!

That's right! That makes sense!

Only the son of the Dark Lord has such power!
For a moment, some Death Eaters slowly lowered their wands, even lowering their heads, unable to look Tom in the eye...

Tom keenly noticed this.

Ha, Death Eaters? They're nothing but a rabble!
Before he even made a move, the other party was already scared! They didn't even dare to look at him?
For a moment, Tom also experienced the joy that Li Weide felt! That kind of unbeatable, cool joy!

If Li Weide heard what he was really thinking, he would definitely scoff and say, "You're wrong, Tom. You can't imagine how happy your godfather is!"

"Who are you?!" Voldemort demanded angrily.

Although Voldemort is currently somewhat out of his mind and a bit deranged, it doesn't mean he's a fool.

He has never been intimate with any female Death Eater, so where did such a big son come from?
So, it must be someone incredibly audacious who dared to impersonate him when he was young!

Tom laughed, “You ask who I am? Don’t you recognize me? My father is Tom Riddle, my mother is Merop Gaunt, and my name is Tom Marvolo Riddle…”

Voldemort frowned. "You escaped from the diary?"

Voldemort had just been resurrected and had not yet learned from Lucius Malfoy that the diary had been destroyed, so he immediately misunderstood.

"Pfft!" Li Weide, who was in the distance, burst out laughing when he heard this.

Voldemort actually believed that Tom was the remnant soul he had placed in his diary...

However, it's no wonder Voldemort would think that way; normal people wouldn't think about parallel universes.

Moreover, Tom's age is exactly the same age Voldemort was when he created his first Horcrux—the diary.

Therefore, Voldemort naturally believed that his Horcruxes had rebelled, and after reshaping their physical bodies, they directly came to rebel against him!
Tom's face stiffened upon hearing this. If Li Weide could understand, he naturally could too. This guy actually thought he was his filthy Horcrux!
And... he heard Li Weide burst out laughing!

Damn it! Not only did I embarrass myself, but I also made him embarrass me in front of that guy!

“Don’t you understand? I am you! You are me! Tom Marvolo Riddle!” Tom said, enunciating each word clearly, trying to make the other person understand.

"So you're planning to replace me as the main soul? How dare you!" Voldemort said angrily.

Damn it! The Horcruxes have rebelled! That old bastard dared to lie to me!

Voldemort looked at Tom with suspicion and disbelief, wishing he could go and kill that old bastard Slughorn right now. As for whether Slughorn had mentioned this matter or not? That was unimportant!
"Pfft! That understanding is actually spot on!" Li Weide burst out laughing again.

Tom's explanation is so weak; it would make sense if he said that about Horcruxes!

Which Horcrux of Voldemort's doesn't contain a remnant soul named Tom Marvolo Riddle?
Tom heard Li Weide's laughter again...

It's like pouring a bucket of gasoline into a burning fire!
Tom's face turned bright red... purely from anger!
The situation is a bit complicated now. I don't know if it's because I'm angry at Li Weide or because of this stupid Voldemort in front of me!
“Raise your wand, you filthy creature!” Tom said coldly, his yew wand already firmly gripped in his hand.

Voldemort was equally furious. How dare a mere Horcrux rebel?!
So much so that he didn't see clearly Tom's wand, which was exactly the same as his!

"Avada Kedavra!"

"boom!"

The green light illuminated the entire cemetery! This shows just how furious Voldemort was at that moment!
The Death Eaters were all blinded by the light.

When they opened their eyes, Tom, who had fallen to the ground as expected, was still standing there perfectly fine, looking completely unharmed!

Only a wisp of white smoke remained on his wand, indicating what had just happened...

"Hiss..." The Death Eaters all gasped in shock.

Even Dumbledore dared not stand still and accept the Killing Curse unleashed by the Dark Lord in his rage!

But the young man not only caught it, but he was also completely unharmed!
Voldemort also stared in disbelief at the young man before him, and at this moment, he was starting to panic.

If a Horcrux has this kind of power to rebel, then what about the other Horcruxes...?

"Ugly wretch! It seems your magic is inferior to mine," Tom said smugly.

Levi turned to the Potters and said, "Wow! He's copying me!"

"Impossible! Absolutely impossible!" Voldemort exclaimed incredulously.

Horcruxes should all obey you! You are the master of these Horcruxes!
How could a Horcrux possibly rebel? And... its power is just too outrageous!
If Horcruxes are all this powerful...

Voldemort was truly panicked this time.

If the fragmented souls within the other Horcruxes all escape and rebel against me...

Am I supposed to destroy all my Horcruxes myself?

Most importantly... I might not even be able to win!
