Hogwarts: I, Tom, am not the Dark Lord

"Then I'll trouble you from now on, Tom."

"What you said is just a small matter. No one will bully Rolf in school from now on. I heard that Uncle Newt didn't have a good time when he was in school before."

"Ah... Actually, all the Hufflepuff students are good, but the headmaster at that time was not good. Although Dumbledore has many thoughts, at least he would not expel students casually. Your uncle Newt was too honest and fell into a honey trap."

"Please tell me more..."

Newt smiled bitterly, looked at the two people who were talking more and more excitedly, and sighed in his heart.

Dumbledore, I have tried my best to save your reputation, but unfortunately... it seems to be of no use.

.....

It was eight o'clock when Tina finally stopped sharing gossip with Tom, still reluctant to leave.

She still had work issues to deal with, so she went upstairs to the study first, while Newt directed the dishes to the sink and began to wash them.

Tom thought for a moment and followed. "Uncle Newt, do you want to come with me to see the unicorn? I don't know if there's anything wrong with the one I have."

"Going to Hogwarts? Don't you still want to..."

Newt paused mid-sentence, his eyes shining as he lowered his voice: "You brought them out?"

"Well, the little ones are too clingy, so I can only open up a space to take them away."

"What are you waiting for? Let's go."

With a clang, all the plates fell into the sink. Tom saw two plates cracked directly, but Newt didn't care and pulled Tom outside.

Arriving at an open space in the front yard, Tom took out his business card holder and enlarged it. The lid opened automatically, and he stood on it, motioning Newt to stand up as well.

When the two stood still, the wooden board under their feet began to drop automatically.

Newt's breathing quickened a little. "Yes, automatic lifting. Why didn't I think of that..."

"What?" Tom looked at him in confusion.

"No, nothing." Newt forced a smile, but he was about to cry inside.

His trunk still had the most primitive stairs, and he had to climb up and down them many times every day. For a man in his nineties, it was really a big hassle, but he couldn't tell Tom about it, lest Tom really think he was a fool...

Originally, Newt wanted to take Tom to visit his portable world tonight, but now he has changed his mind. He must change the entry and exit method overnight before Tom can enter.

.....

The two of them quickly landed on the lawn. Tom blew a whistle, and soon the unicorns appeared in front of them.

After seeing the three unicorns, Newt's eyes scanned like X-rays, and his expression became very excited.

"With their pure white fur and slender bodies, these two large unicorns are the healthiest unicorns I've ever seen. No, their horns have become longer, and their magic power must have increased accordingly."

"And this little one is actually pink. Could it be a mutation?"

Newt was completely lost in his own world, muttering to himself, while Tom was touching this and that. These past few days, he had been busy with alchemy, practicing flying, and accompanying the Greengrass sisters. His life was even busier than at school, and he hadn't played with them properly for a while.

Newt relied on his professional knowledge to answer many of his doubts, but there were still many questions that he could not explain at all. He could only blame Tom - it was the patronus that caused so many changes in the unicorn.

"Tom, could you feed them your Patronus now?" the old man asked hopefully.

Of course Tom would not refuse this small request. A white light came out of his body, and the three little guys hurried over to suck it.

Newt watched in amazement, his eyes wide open, trying not to miss any details.

The power of the Patronus is well matched to that of the Unicorn, but this should not be enough for them to evolve, or return to their ancestral bloodline.

Even after the three little guys finished eating, they still couldn't figure out what was going on.

He simply released his own patronus - a ferret.

Under Newt's control, the ferret leaped over to the three unicorns, but they remained indifferent. After a quick glance, they made no other move, only a hint of...disdain in their large eyes?

Chapter 120: Newt's Eye on the Ganges Water, the Unicorn Problem

Newt has never boasted about how decent a wizard he is, but he is very confident in his Patronus Charm. After all, he has never meant to harm anyone. He also feels very happy and has very strong positive emotions.

But judging from the unicorn's behavior, it was obvious that he looked down on his patronus.

How good is the food usually?

Now Newt has become very interested in Tom's Patronus, and his trust in Tom has increased a little bit.

How could he be a bad wizard if he had a patronus of such high quality?

"It seems the problem lies with your Patronus."

Newt looked at Tom. "Your Patronus is of a higher quality than mine, and higher than the essence of these three unicorns. So it's purifying the energy within them. That's probably why they've changed."

Tom nodded. "I guess that's probably the reason. This can be extended to other magical creatures."

Newt's thoughts were the same as Grindelwald Andros's conclusions, and in this regard, he trusted Newt more.

“Oh?” Newt said, even more interested in the point he made. “Can you give me another example?”

"Take thunderbirds for example," Tom thought for a moment and continued, "Thunderbirds often fly high into the sky to bathe in lightning when natural thunderstorms form. This is their way of improving themselves. So if I can provide lightning that's stronger than natural lightning, can they absorb it as well?"

"There are also poison sac leopards. Their own poison is already terrifying. If we feed them poisons with even more terrifying toxins, perhaps it can be enhanced."

"Although the conditions are extreme, it's not impossible to achieve it. I happened to be going to the Thunderbird Sanctuary this time so I could give it a try."

Newt felt that it was feasible. When talking about magical beasts, Newt became very excited and his motivation was maximized.

"Where do you find lightning stronger than the Thunderbird?" Tom asked curiously.

Newt's excited expression froze and immediately wilted.

Yes

What lightning spell cast by a wizard can compare with the might of nature?

Maybe Dumbledore could do it if he tried his best, but it was too unrealistic to ask Dumbledore for help just for a guess.

It would be better to target the Venomous Leopard. Newt once heard a rumor that a Venomous Leopard in India drank the water from the Ganges and ended up foaming at the mouth and being poisoned to death.

"I suddenly had a new idea..."

"hold head high!"

Just when Newt was about to tell Tom that he was going to steal some water from the Ganges, a loud dragon roar suddenly appeared in the space, and the three unicorns immediately huddled and hid behind Tom.

A dark shadow flew out from a distance and flew towards Tom and Newt at an extremely fast speed.

Newt had already drawn his wand, but Tom pressed his hand down, then stepped forward with his arms open. The shadow crashed into his arms, and Tom took two steps back.

"My goodness, it's become so heavy?"

Tom grabbed Usagi who was rubbing his neck affectionately. Compared to when he went to the Greengrass family, Usagi had grown a lot. His length had grown from half a meter to about the same as his, and he was also much thicker.

It takes some effort to lift Tom.

He ate all the meteorites from the Greengrass family and the ones he had collected recently. Three days before he left, he fell into a deep sleep, digesting the energy inside.

Unexpectedly, I woke up as soon as I arrived in New York.

"Ohhh~ Ohhh." ~" Rayquaza cried out with some dissatisfaction. I'm a girl, how can you say I'm heavy?

Tom's face turned peculiar.

Whose dragon can cry? Who taught Usagi?

Far away in England, Daphne suddenly sneezed.

"Tom, is this your pet?"

Newt also came over and looked at Usagi carefully. The more he looked, the more shocked he became.

Newt could swear he had never seen a magical creature like this before, not even a close relative.

"Is this a magical animal that has never been discovered?" The old man's voice began to tremble.

Tom stopped the mischievous little dragon, "Ah, Usagi is from the Rayquaza clan. It told me this information, but it didn't say more."

Newt took a few steps closer, and Usagi immediately let out a dragon roar. The old man then realized that he was too excited. His behavior and gaze aroused Usagi's vigilance. He smiled awkwardly and retreated to his original position.

Tom also said, "Uncle Newt, my Usagi doesn't like being studied, and I won't force her. If you want to know more, you can only observe from a distance. This is the limit of what I can do."

Newt nodded repeatedly. "I understand. Many magical beasts don't like humans. I can sense the dragon's might in his voice, but it's even more advanced and pure than a fire dragon. Dragons are the proudest creatures. It's truly rare for you to earn his approval."

Tom smiled and said nothing more.

He played with Usagi, while Newt wrote and drew with a pen and paper beside him. The unicorn that he cared about the most just now now had no presence.

It was not until ten o'clock when Tom was ready to go to bed that Newt left reluctantly.

The first thing he did after returning was to transform the entrance to his portable world.

The next day, Tom finally got his wish and entered the box that countless people had fantasized about.

Newt had fixed the entrance to the box on the companion door and would only move it back when needed. Opening the trapdoor, Tom and Newt stood on an automatic elevator that had obviously been installed and entered a cramped cabin full of tools.

When the old man pushed open the cracked wooden door, a vast, vibrant world suddenly filled his sight.

It felt like he had come out of a wooden house in the African wilderness. The strong contrast made Tom hold his breath and stand there admiring it for several seconds.

Next door, there are grasslands, mountains, lakes, canyons, all kinds of terrain and ecological environments. Compared with Newt's box, the business card holder he made can't be called a small world at all, it's just a pitiful snail's home.

"How did you do that?" Tom couldn't help but ask, "My magic power is not weak, but even if I use all my strength to expand it, it can't become like you."

"Actually, my traceless extension spell isn't much stronger than yours, Tom." Newt smiled quietly. "I was shocked when I saw your space yesterday. To be honest, I can't imagine that a first-year student could do such a large space in a box."

"A whole piece?" Tom keenly noticed the most crucial information.

"Yes, a whole piece." Newt nodded. He pointed at the curtain in the distance, his fingers lingering on some places. "Have you not noticed? The space here is all spliced ​​together."

"That's even more difficult," Tom couldn't help but retort. "Maintaining the stability of one dimension is easy, but so many dimensions squeezed together? If you're not careful, a collision will occur, and everything will explode."

"So we need to segment them and not treat the boxes as a whole and then piece them together."

Newt generously shared his experience, "Use some special materials and spells to break the interior of the box into small pieces. Cast the traceless extension spell on each piece, and you'll get the result you want."

Tom cast Eagle Eyes on himself, allowing him to see farther and more clearly.

Sure enough, in addition to the places separated by the curtain, there were many places with blurred boundaries. When animals passed through the boundaries, they would become distorted and blurred for a moment, and then return to normal.

"Leave the unicorns here for now," Newt said to the teenager. "They need more space to move around. I'll also do some checks on them to make sure there are no hidden dangers."

Tom nodded and went upstairs to get his business card holder.
