Hogwarts: This Dark Lord is so evil

Dumbledore had already left.

In the empty room, only Levid and Nagini were left, staring at each other.

After a long while, Levid broke the slightly awkward silence, "Have you had breakfast? Would you like some porridge?"

Nagini: "Hiss?"

"Okay… I guess snakes don't drink porridge. What would you like to eat then?" Levid asked again.

Nagini: "Hiss hiss hiss!"

Levid: ?

"Alright, it seems we need to find a translator. Luckily, I know one!" Levid extended his left hand towards Nagini.

Nagini understood and climbed up, coiling tightly around Levid's left hand.

"Bang!"

Tom, who was eating bread and reading a book, was startled by the loud sound of the door opening.

"You dog! What do you want now? You're the one who told me to read!" Tom said, putting on a brave face.

He was afraid that Levid would go back on his word and stop him from reading and studying.

For a diligent and studious student like Tom, that would be too cruel!

"Don't worry, don't worry. I'm here just to ask for a favor. I think… you'll definitely be very willing, right? I know you've always been a kind-hearted person, Tom."

Me? Kind-hearted? A good person?

Looking at Levid's amiable smile, Tom's lips twitched slightly before he forced out a smile.

"Yes, I'm kind-hearted, a good person! So… I mean… of course… of course, I'm very willing to help…"

Endure!

"So, Levid, what do you want me to help you with?"

Looking at Tom's forced smile, Levid was very satisfied.

"Come on, help me translate." Levid extended his left wrist.

Tom immediately saw the small snake on Levid's hand.

"Hiss… This snake… why does it look so familiar?"

For Levid, perhaps all snakes looked the same, but for Tom, that wasn't the case.

"Because she's Nagini," Levid said with a smile.

"Ah?!" Tom was so shocked that he almost fell off the bed.

Back then, Nagini had left a very deep impression on Tom.

Because he almost died that time!

For Tom, who cherished his life more than anything, it was an extremely terrifying experience!

"This… this is really Nagini… Huh? Why has she become so small? And… she's greeting me?"

Levid smiled and said, "Because she can stay conscious now. Haven't you heard her story before?"

Tom then slowly sat down, "What's going on? This… although she's conscious now, there's no guarantee she won't lose her mind again… Don't forget we almost died back then. No, I have to tell Dumbledore about this!"

Looking at Tom's expression, Levid knew that he thought he had caught his weakness and was already thinking about how to coerce him.

But how could he let Tom succeed?

"Sorry, Professor Dumbledore put Nagini by my side. So, he already knows."

"What!?" Tom jumped up again.

"How could that old guy do this! He actually put a ferocious beast next to two weak students? Doesn't he know the danger?"

Regarding his safety, Tom's reaction was extremely intense.

"Weak?"

"Yes! Me! Weak!" Tom almost burst into tears when he said that.

Ever since Levid appeared, he had always felt weak…

"Don't worry, Tom. Professor Dumbledore put Nagini by my side because I have a way to keep Nagini conscious. Also… Nagini is conscious now, so she can understand everything you say, she just can't speak human language yet."

"Ah?!" Tom glanced at the little snake, who seemed a little dejected, and a hint of embarrassment flashed in his eyes.

Nagini was originally a human, so of course she could understand human language when conscious…

Obviously, although what Tom said just now was excusable, Nagini still felt a little sad.

"Hiss hiss hiss…"

"I… I didn't mean that, I just…" The young Tom looked red-faced and didn't know what Nagini had said to him.

"Alright, Tom, we're all good people, aren't we? So, of course, we have to actively respond to Professor Dumbledore's call… to be a good person, a good wizard. So, helping Nagini is our duty," Levid said with fine words.

Tom gave Levid a strange look. He didn't believe a single punctuation mark of what Levid said!

If there weren't any benefits, how could this guy be so active?!

What's the most uncomfortable thing in the world?

Of course, it's doing all the hard work yourself, but the benefits go to someone else!

That's how Tom felt now.

Levid obviously wouldn't share the benefits he got with him.

But now, he had to help Levid translate…

Frustration! Endurance!

After Tom did his mental preparation again, he barely managed to control his expression.

"I don't know… what do you want to ask Nagini… Miss?"

Levid said, "You just need to translate Nagini's words. Anyway, she can understand us when we speak."

"Hiss hiss hiss…"

"Oh…" Tom nodded, "She said she doesn't want to eat raw things after waking up… It reminds her of the days when she couldn't control herself and had to drink blood."

Levid scratched his head, "If that's the case… then how about some eggs? I remember snakes like to eat eggs. Since she doesn't want to eat raw ones, then boiled eggs?"

Nagini happily nodded, indicating that she had no objections.

Fortunately, after shrinking, Nagini's physical attributes were also reduced. Relatively speaking, her appetite also became much smaller, plus the blessing of the nutritious potions.

Two boiled eggs were enough to fill her stomach for a meal.

It was easier to feed than Levid had imagined.

After Nagini swallowed two boiled eggs, Levid also finished his portion of porridge.

"Tom, how about you teach me Parseltongue? That way I won't have to trouble you to translate for me," Levid said with a smile.

"No way! It's an innate ability, you can't teach it," Tom refused decisively.

How could he agree to Levid wanting to learn his skills?

Speaking Parseltongue and controlling snakes was the only talent he had that Levid didn't.

"Really can't teach it?"

"Really can't teach it!" Tom had already made up his mind. Even if Levid threatened him again, he wouldn't give in!

"Okay… then forget it."

Hearing this, Tom almost suspected that he had misheard. This guy actually let him off so easily?

"Nagini can write with her tail, so I'll have Nagini teach me snake language," Levid said with a smile.

Nagini nodded, indicating that there was no problem.

Tom stared at Levid dumbfounded. Could it be that the only thing he was better than Levid at was about to disappear?

Tom suddenly felt an indescribable sense of powerlessness…
