Hogwarts: Oh no, I've become Voldemort!

Who would have thought that this little Tom, who is unknown in the wizarding world, is actually a descendant of Slytherin? No wonder he was able to open the Chamber of Secrets!

However, Draco was still very annoyed.

Why didn't any of my ancestors have a wizard as great as Slytherin?

In this way, he could also become a formidable figure at Hogwarts as the heir to the Malfoys!

But whatever, now that he's the heir to the secret chamber, it doesn't matter. His only complaint is that this wretched Tom Riddle, who, despite being Parsleyan, refuses to summon the monster so he can see it—he has absolutely no sense of propriety!

"Little Tang, since you have a snake accent, shouldn't you show some appreciation?"

Cyrus: ? ? ?

Little Tang? ??

This Draco Malfoy really doesn't know the meaning of death!

Fortunately, the person in the diary isn't the real Riddle, otherwise if he were resurrected—no, he wouldn't even need to be resurrected, he would have drained Malfoy's life force!

“Of course I would, but the problem is that if I use the Basilisk voice, I would have to borrow your body to make the sound. That way you would never see the Basilisk’s appearance again.”

"The basilisk? So the monster in the secret chamber was the basilisk!" Malfoy was surprised at first, then nodded as if it were a matter of course.

The monster left behind by Slytherin should rightfully be the strongest, the Serpent King!

But if Tom Riddle says that, doesn't that mean he'll never see the Basilisk and never be able to control it?

What kind of successor is this?

It can only be considered as Xiao Tang's vocal organs at most!

"Couldn't you summon it first, and then give my body back to me?"

"If you have the courage and strength to face the basilisk alone, then I don't mind at all. However, I must warn you that without my control, it will attack you immediately. Please forgive it, after all, it hasn't eaten much for almost a thousand years. Those rats in the sewers can't satisfy its appetite."

Malfoy immediately shivered.

"Then forget it..."

He sighed and looked around.

The huge, secret room seemed to contain nothing but a few statues.

Is this all there is to Slytherin's Chamber of Secrets?

To be honest, it's a bit disappointing.

In reality, Slytherin's Chamber of Secrets certainly contained more than just these. Although the Chamber of Secrets was originally just a classroom built by Slytherin, it also holds many precious manuscripts and secrets.

Most of these have been absorbed by Voldemort to become nutrients for his growth, and now they also belong to Cyrus's power.

Furthermore, it contains records of many dangerous magical experiments. Some succeeded, but many more failed. Rumors also circulated that Slytherins looked as ugly as monkeys.

This wasn't actually his original appearance, just like Voldemort was a handsome young man at the beginning.

Both of them conducted magical experiments on themselves in pursuit of greater magical power.

Voldemort's experiments were largely based on Slytherin's work and took it a step further, but he still couldn't escape the fate of being disfigured.

Having absorbed the experiences of these two individuals, Cyrus was actually quite envious of magical bloodline modification, but he didn't really want to become an ugly monster, so he had to be very careful with this step.

'It's too early to think about these things now. If I don't revive him, I won't even have the resources to make any changes.'

With a slight sigh, Cyrus knew that now was the time to gain Draco's trust.

"Are you wondering what other secrets might be hidden in this secret room?"

"How do you know?" Malfoy was startled by Cyrus's words. Could this diary possibly possess the power of mind control?

“That’s not hard to guess. If you want to get stronger, I have a good place for you. All you have to do is lean your head in, just like you did at the beginning,” Cyrus replied, then turned to another page in his diary.

Having learned from his first experience, Malfoy was much more adept this time.

After his consciousness shifted again, Cyrus took out the Marauder's Map and, after confirming that there was no one outside the secret room or in the corridor on the eighth floor, left and headed for the Room of Requirement.

"Give me a room to practice dark magic."

Upon opening the door, Cyrus was greeted by a gloomy and terrifying classroom, almost entirely filled with books on dark magic, including some extremely advanced ones.

He hid most of the spellbooks, leaving only a few simple little curses.

These minor curses are actually quite common among young wizards, so they won't affect their personalities too much, and at the same time, they can keep Malfoy occupied, making them very suitable.

Then, he returned his body to its original position.

Malfoy was naturally delighted to see so many evil curses and spells, and he lavished praise on Cyrus. Cyrus, on the other hand, returned to his diary to analyze the alchemical books and other forbidden texts.

Although he was now in Malfoy's hands, the actual situation had not changed much.

The possibility of facing Dumbledore in the end still exists.

"The archetypal world that leads to the top via the 22 paths of the Tree of Life."

"The devil waters it with sin, and the skeleton cuts it off."

"The ten primordial substances, consisting of the celestial sphere containing the seven planets, the celestial sphere, the celestial palace, and the world beneath the moon, constitute the fundamental forces of the gods and the world."

"Pervaded by the pillars of feminine compassion, neutral gentleness, and masculine severity—"

"The creation of perfect spirit, thought, and ideas, and mindset, begins to take shape in material form and eventually arrives in the material world."

Cyrus felt that the more he read these books on alchemy, the more he felt like he was sinking into an incredibly terrifying quagmire. The vast world and boundless power were more mysterious than magic itself.

It's almost like heading towards the real root of the problem!

Is it necessary to follow all twenty-two paths to forge the true Philosopher's Stone?

Or perhaps, it's about obtaining a more perfect, essential power?

Cyrus's ambition began to swell.

If it's just resurrection, that won't do.

His resurrected body was that of Tom Riddle, who, despite his talent, still had his limits. He made himself look neither human nor ghost, but ultimately failed to obtain ultimate power.

Cyrus was not content with this.

Having already encountered so much mystery, what he yearns for is to become a truly perfect being!

Chapter 47 of the documentary series "The Legend of Draco" continues to air.

For a long time afterward, Malfoy was immersed in the joy of learning evil spells.

Cyrus didn't give him much guidance, but he still learned very quickly. Besides curses, Malfoy was also very interested in some alchemical gadgets. However, this was a hobby that Lucius didn't allow him to have at home.

Being obsessed with alchemy tools is tantamount to wasting one's time on trivial pursuits!

But in reality, Malfoy did have some talent in this area.

After Cyrus discovered this by chance, he immediately put it to use and began teaching Malfoy alchemy. Sometimes he would even go to the room where things were hidden to find some damaged alchemical artifacts for Draco to repair. He even found a broken Pensieve.

Thus, they finally shared a secret. Malfoy also began to trust Cyrus more.

“If you want to continue studying alchemy, I suggest you choose runes in your third year,” Cyrus advised.

Unlike the ancient alchemy he is now studying, modern alchemy is more focused on creating magical items and is better at using runes to add magical power to these items.

The school hasn't mentioned course selection yet, but Malfoy is definitely considering it seriously.

Dobby has been in distress and conflict ever since he stole the diary from Ginny.

He tried so many ways to notify Harry Potter, but he never imagined that the person whose name he wouldn't even mention would still be alive. Eleven years ago, he narrowly escaped from Harry Potter's clutches!

Now, Harry Potter may be facing an even more terrifying threat.

"That person whose name can't even be spoken is still alive! Harry Potter must leave Hogwarts!" Dobby clenched his fist tightly!

Meanwhile at Hogwarts, Harry and his friends were still trying their best to help Ginny find Riddle's diary. But several weeks had passed, and they still hadn't made any progress.

They saw almost everyone as the murderer, and nearly every Slytherin and Gryffindor student became a suspect.

Ginny was devastated, but as time went on, all she felt left was sadness and despair.

“I’m afraid we’ll never find that diary,” Ron said, sounding pessimistic like Pigsy from Journey to the West. “And have you noticed? The attacks seem to have stopped. Something must have happened somewhere we don’t know about. Perhaps Riddle used his methods to stop the successor.”

His words were almost an implication that the brave and righteous Mr. Riddle had already sacrificed himself on the path to stopping evil.

Upon hearing this, Ginny immediately began to cry. Not only did she cry, but she also used a hook to hang Ron from the ceiling.

Ron:…

In contrast, Fred and George, who assumed Ginny had lost the map, were less anxious. On one hand, they had almost completely figured out all the tunnels on the map, and on the other hand, they believed the heir couldn't possibly know its secrets.

The other party can never use the map to harm others; even if they obtain it, it's nothing more than a piece of waste paper.

The fact that the attacks have now stopped is the best proof of that!

Therefore, they not only weren't worried, but they also came to comfort Ginny from time to time. However, their way of comforting her was somewhat different from others. At least Percy didn't think that dressing up in fur or conjuring up boils to jump out from behind a statue to tease her could be considered a form of comfort.

Soon, Harry had to stop looking for the thief.

Because Wood has been putting in a lot more training for them lately, Harry spent almost all of his time on the pitch after dinner. The weather has been cold and rainy lately, so every time he returned to his dorm, he was soaked to the bone.

Ron was also very tired and would fall asleep as soon as his head hit the pillow.
