Hogwarts: I'm really not the third Dark Lord

"Why should I provoke such a powerful enemy because of you?"

Riddle looked at Kyubey mockingly, but the other party still looked that unhurried.

"Of course... I can make you stronger and even escape that tragic fate!"

"A tragic fate?" Riddle narrowed his eyes, "Maybe there are stronger beings than me in this world, but I have already conquered death. No one has gone further than me on the road to immortality!"

"Really?" Kyubey said in his irritating flat tone, "If you are referring to Horcruxes...you know, the black wizards who have successfully made Horcruxes throughout the ages are like the sands of the Ganges, but you have seen Have you ever passed any of them?”

"..."

A sudden sense of panic gripped Riddle's heart, leaving him speechless for a moment.

"The ancient Greek wizard who invented this magic, Herbo, is really so kind to spread his life-saving trump card. You can even find it in a book?"

"What exactly do you want to say?" Riddle interrupted Kyubey irritably.

"Sign a contract with me, and I can help you gain powerful power and free yourself from your tragic fate."

Kyubey repeated.

"What do I have to give?"

Riddle knows that if you want to gain great power, you must pay the same price.

"I want you to help me fight against that miko."

"that's it?"

"Yes, that's all."

Riddle stared at Kyubey for a long time and suddenly said: "Then, let me see what you call [power]!"

Kyubey rubbed his paws: "As you wish."

In its palm, a five-pointed star magic mark appeared. Before Riddle could react, Kyubey gently patted Riddle with his paw——

"What did you do?" Riddle subconsciously took several steps back, but no matter how he checked his body, nothing changed at all.

At this moment, a voice came from his ear:

"Hello, Tom Riddle. Welcome to the Life Simulator Trial."

"Who's talking?"

This was a female voice, with a strange mechanical feel. Riddle's mentality was a bit broken. It was obviously his own soul space, but uninvited guests kept appearing one after another.

"What did you hear?" Kyubey asked with interest.

Riddle reacted immediately: "Are you doing something wrong?"

"It's too much to say it's a ghost." Kyubey wiped his chin, "Everyone has different abilities, and I don't know what abilities you can get."

'In other words, am I not the only one who signed a contract with it? '

Riddle thought secretly and told Kyubey about the voice in his ear just now.

"Life simulation system?" Kyubey thought thoughtfully, "This is a very rare prediction ability. You can try it first."

"Precognition ability?"

Riddle was overjoyed. He had always believed in things like fateful prophecies. If this system could really help him predict the future and seek good fortune and avoid misfortune, it would be much more useful than pure power.

"I'm going to do a life simulation." Riddle thought silently in his mind.

[Please select your life node]

"Node? Just choose the moment when I was just created!" Riddle quickly made up his mind.

[At the age of 16, you ordered the basilisk to kill Myrtle and create the first Horcrux in your life. You blamed the murder on Hagrid and his beasts, and Hogwarts expelled him. 】

These things were very consistent with Riddle's memory, and some expectations arose in his heart.

After the main soul separated him, he quickly gave the diary to the Malfoy family. Therefore, he was unable to know the main soul's subsequent experiences. He could only learn some fragments from the Malfoy family, such as that he became the world's The most notorious Dark Lord, for example, not long after that, he was defeated by an infant——

It's just ridiculous!

The life simulation continued, and Riddle couldn't help but pricked up his ears, not daring to miss any sentence.

[At the age of 16, you found Riddle House in Little Hangleton, where you found your father - a Muggle who abandoned his mother. You killed their family and made the second one in your life. Horcrux]

"Good kill!" Riddle secretly cheered. When he checked a lot of information, he found that his mother, who he thought was an ordinary person, actually had Slytherin's blood in her body, and was abandoned by his dirty Muggle father. , his outlook on life was about to collapse.

The woman who blasphemed the great name of Slytherin certainly deserves to die, but that man deserves to be crushed to ashes!

Now that he knew that his future self had indeed accomplished this, Riddle couldn't help but smile with pleasure, but the smile immediately solidified.

[At the age of 17, you graduated from Hogwarts. To everyone's surprise, you did not enter the Ministry of Magic, but went to Borgin Bock Magic Store as a small clerk. 】

"Damn it! What do I think in the future?"

Maybe there are some interesting little items in the Borgin Bock Magic Shop, but obviously, these things are not as good as the treasures from the Age of Gods stored in the Department of Mysteries, the lowest level of the Ministry of Magic!

Joining the Ministry of Magic and working your way up was obviously a much better prospect than going to Borgin Bock - no matter how you looked at it.

Riddle frowned and continued to look down.

[At the age of 19, you received a wealthy collector named Hepzibah Smith. By selling her sex, you learned that she was a descendant of Hufflepuff and had a collection of gold cups used by the founder himself. 】

[You skillfully killed Hepzibah Smith and created the third Horcrux in your life. 】

Riddle frowned when he saw "Appearance Betrays", but he never cared about appearance, so he continued to look back.

[At the age of 20, you resigned from Bojinbok store and started traveling around the world. 】

Immediately afterwards, Riddle saw himself using various means to collect items used by the four founders and making them into Horcruxes one by one. Ten years later, he returned to Hogwarts again.

[At the age of 30, you returned to Hogwarts. The then principal had become Dumbledore. You applied to him for the position of Professor of Defense Against the Dark Arts. After he rejected it, you cursed the position. One can teach this course for a year. 】

[You hid Ravenclaw's diadem in the Room of Requirement at Hogwarts, where you discovered an ancient book.There are many sensational contents recorded in the book. Reason tells you that they are all false, but in the end you still took it away. 】

[After deciphering the forbidden knowledge in the ancient book, you feel that you have finally broken through a certain bottleneck. Even if you face Dumbledore, you have a certain chance of winning. 】

[At the age of 31, you began to recruit troops and expand your power...]

[At the age of 32, you began to recruit troops and expand your power...]

[At the age of 33, you began to recruit troops and expand your power...]

【…】

Over the next 20 years, Voldemort and Dumbledore were engaged in an overt or covert battle. Riddle was satisfied to see that he and his Death Eaters had always had the upper hand in the battle.

The magical world has fallen into darkness and fear, and even many officials from the Ministry of Magic have been bribed by them.

In order to fight against the increasingly powerful Voldemort and the increasingly unreliable Ministry of Magic, Dumbledore had no choice but to form the Order of the Phoenix.

[At the age of 55, Sybill Trelawney, a descendant of the famous prophet, made a prophecy: "born into a family that has defied the Dark Lord three times", "will be born at the end of the seventh month", and possesses "something the Dark Lord does not understand" A boy with "power" will appear and defeat Voldemort.Your subordinate Severus Snape overheard this prophecy and relayed it to you. 】

[There are two boys who fit the description of this prophecy, namely Harry Potter and Neville Longbottom. After careful selection, you selected Harry Potter as the prophecy's old enemy. 】

Hearing this, Riddle couldn't help but feel excited. He knew that it was this Harry Potter who had caused him to lose everything and linger on.

[After Snape learned about it, because he deeply loved Harry's mother Lily Potter, he decided to defect in panic and reported the matter to Dumbledore. 】

"Snape! The damn traitor!"

Although Riddle, who had been keeping a diary since he was 16, didn't know who Snape was, it didn't stop him from swearing.

[You found Godric's Hollow where the Potters were hiding, and killed the Potters.When killing Harry, a 15-month-old baby, because Snape asked you to spare Lily's life in advance, and you agreed and kept your promise, asking Lily to leave, this behavior prompted Lily's death to become a way to protect Harry. A voluntary act that fulfills the ultimate protective spell of love. 】

"It turns out to be this magic!"

Riddle suddenly realized that he had seen this magic in the Hogwarts library, but when he saw that it required sacrificing his own life as a prerequisite, he immediately lost interest.

It is not surprising that this magic was found by another woman after decades.

But he happened to find this woman...

Riddle couldn't laugh or cry for a moment.

If he had found Longbottom instead of Potter, his mother probably did not master this magic, and he might have been able to kill Longbottom smoothly.

Seeing the sentence "The Dark Lord will personally mark him as his old enemy" again, Riddle suddenly had a new understanding.

Is this also part of fate?

What Riddle wants to know most has been answered, and the life simulation continues.

[When killing Harry Potter, the Death Curse is reflected on you and you die. 】

[At the age of 55, you are alive again and have become steam and shadow even more humble than a ghost. 】

[You hide in the Albanian forest, waiting for your chance. 】

[At the age of 56, you are hiding in the Albanian forest, waiting for the opportunity. 】

[At the age of 57, you are hiding in the Albanian forest, waiting for the opportunity. 】

[At the age of 58, you are hiding in the Albanian forest, waiting for the opportunity. 】

【…】

Fast forward more than ten years, and the situation finally changed.

[At the age of 65, a reckless young man broke into your place. You quickly bewitched him and possessed him. 】

[You need the Philosopher's Stone for your resurrection, but now the only surviving Philosopher's Stone is in the hands of Nick Flamel, and there is nothing you can do about it. 】

[You heard the news that Nick Flamel lent the Philosopher's Stone to Dumbledore. You didn't expect that this old guy was still alive after so many years. You guessed that Dumbledore relied on the Philosopher's Stone to extend his life. 】

[In order to get the Sorcerer's Stone, you sneaked into Hogwarts and met #￥@&&...]

[Beep!warn!The target person cannot be simulated!The system is skipping...]

[You escaped Hogwarts and fled all the way to Albania. 】

Hey hey!In the end what happened?

Riddle was stunned. One moment he was confident and ready to use the magic stone to restore his body. The next moment, he was running away like a bereaved dog.

Riddle told Kyubey his doubts, and Kyubey looked shocked and whispered to himself.

"It shouldn't be... Guys like that should have left long ago..."

"What do you mean?" Riddle keenly noticed this and asked.

Kyubey looked at him solemnly - Riddle had never seen the other party look so serious before: "The fact that he cannot be simulated by the simulation system means that his destiny has transcended this world. This is one of the signs of becoming a god or immortal in the Age of Gods. one."

Could it be that there is a real god in Hogwarts, and he drove me away?

As if he had seen through Riddle's inner thoughts, Kyubey then said: "The gods and immortals have already left this world, and they cannot exist in this world for a long time. If a god really takes action against you, you will not be able to escape."

"..."

Being looked down upon by a cat!

Although this made Riddle very frustrated, he also knew that Kyubey was right.

If the records from the Age of Gods that I saw were correct, I am indeed no match for them now.

"Maybe what you encountered was just a holy relic left by some gods." Seeing Riddle's gloomy look, Kyubey hurriedly comforted him.

Whether it was the gods or the holy relics they left behind, Riddle could not solve it now, so he could only continue to look back.

[At the age of 66, your Horcrux diary was brought to Hogwarts, and you decided to summon the monsters in the secret room to cleanse this dirty school. 】

"..."

Seeing himself on the stage, Riddle opened his eyes wide again and had an ominous premonition in his heart.

Last year, his main soul came in person and was driven away. He didn't think he could cause any trouble, but as expected——

[You met six other contractors, and you started a melee in order to plunder the power of others. 】

[You were defeated, Harry Potter pierced the diary with the basilisk fang, and the Horcrux diary was destroyed. 】

[This life simulation trial ends here, please consume enough soul power to continue trying]

The life simulation ended, and Riddle didn't care about the news that he was destroyed in the end, but still fell into deep thought.

Does the contractor refer to the person who signed a contract with Kyubey?

You can actually rob other people's power by killing each other. This so-called contract is really not a good thing...

However, powerful power is what he needs most now.

Riddle made a decision secretly...
