struggle

Hearing Tom slowly recite the incantation of Avada Kedavra, the main soul constricted his pupils suddenly. He thought this soul piece was the most cowardly part of all his soul pieces. After all, in his memory, Before he was 16 years old, it contained the most unbearable memories of his life, and also the years with the most so-called emotions. He despised and detested such existence, so he took this part away first.However, what he didn't expect was that this soul piece would really try to get rid of him and Ginny together. The cruel expression reminded him that he was also a part of him, with the same cruel traits as him.

Frightened, the main soul immediately tried nervously to leave Ginny's body and avoid Tom's death curse.And at the moment when he was about to leave and relaxed, Tom suddenly turned his left hand and made several complicated gestures very quickly. instead of chanting complex incantations in a low voice.Ginny had seen a similar gesture before, the one Tom made when he extracted the soul tablet from Harry the night after the Triwizard Tournament.Only this time, his gestures were more complicated, and combined with a spell, making the faint suction even stronger.Caught off guard, the main soul was suddenly attracted to Tom, and instantly merged into Tom's body.

The moment the two merged, Tom suddenly fell to the ground, rolling over and over, his eyes opening and closing, alternating between black and red.He held his chest convulsively, panting heavily, as if there were two opposing forces in his body wrestling and fighting.

Seeing Tom's painful look, Ginny slowly leaned forward after a short shock.At this time, Tom has no resistance at all, but is fighting with the main soul with all his strength, competing for the final power of the body in the soul. The winning party will completely swallow all the soul pieces to form a complete soul, while the losing party , will disappear forever.

Ginny tightened her grip slowly, struggling with her final choice.She couldn't be sure who would stay in the end. If the main soul seized control in the end, the impact of a healthy Dark Lord on the entire magic world would be very terrifying.She understands that perhaps the best way is to kill by mistake. When both of them are powerless to resist, use the Avada Kedavra Curse to crush their souls, and then fuse all the soul fragments for her to absorb, just like last time Like the soul piece in that locket, it was completely transformed into his own.

In this way, not only can she obtain a great increase in magic power, but she can also be regarded as the savior who eliminated the Dark Lord as predicted in the prophecy, and she will have a completely smooth life from then on, and she can even erase all relationships with Tom. Keep all the secrets she doesn't want to know.But this also means that the two people in front of her must die, including the main soul, including Tom.However, does she really still hope to completely draw a line between her relationship with Tom, even if she puts him to death, she still wants to get rid of herself?

Slowly clenched her wand, the body of the juniper wood symbolizes rebirth and flying away from death; the inner core of the snake's nerves is the symbol of Slytherin, all of which imply the relationship with Tom The close relationship seems to be destined for her to meet him.Ginny bit her lower lip desperately, and suddenly realized Tom's mood just now. Should she act cruelly for her own smooth future, or should she be loyal to her feelings and gamble for the last time?

Tom fell on the ground, and the struggle with the main soul seemed to have entered the most critical moment. The time for his eyes to change became shorter and shorter and more frequent. Although the main soul did not have the upper hand, Tom obviously did not. Not easy.Ginny looked at Tom's painful face, kept raising and lowering her wand, unable to make a final decision.

After struggling for a long time, she finally let out a heavy breath, closed her eyes and settled her mind, and when she opened her eyes again, there was a determined look in her eyes, and she made her final decision.Just now, Tom finally did not choose to sacrifice her. He did not use the Avada Kedavra to kill and devour her and the main soul together. Instead, he chose a more difficult and dangerous way, using the soul-absorbed The way to introduce the main soul into his body, and try to eliminate the consciousness of the main soul by his own power, and completely integrate him.Perhaps this time, she can really believe what he said, and believe that the relationship between them is no longer a relationship of simple use and deceit, but an incessant emotional bond.

After walking forward and kneeling beside Tom, Ginny held the pendant given by Lorian, and at the same time gently covered Tom's hand.Also reciting the complicated incantation, she guided the magic power in her body, flowed into Tom's body along the pendant, looking for the part of Tom's soul, and restored the power of the soul piece that originally belonged to him to him. .With the help of the Bliss Elixir, she believed that with the combined power of the two of them, they would be able to completely erase the main soul's consciousness.

With her intervention, Tom's strength was replenished in an instant, immediately suppressing all the resistance of the main soul.In the weakening resistance of the main soul, Tom's soul devoured the power of the main soul bit by bit, eliminated his consciousness, absorbed his soul, and gradually transformed him into Tom's own power.

When the last hopeless expression of the main soul also disappeared, and finally turned into a powerful magic power, swimming in Tom's body, Ginny fell to the ground with no strength, only feeling the coldness behind her back, obviously the overdraft of magic power combined with the emotional depression Nervous, before she knew it, sweat had soaked her back.She tried to let go of Tom's hand, but when she pulled it away, she found that it was held tightly.

As soon as she looked up, she met Tom's smiling black eyes: "Ginny, you chose me in the end." He took the riskiest move, relying on the effect of the Felician, trying to solve the problem of the main soul. At the same time, it forced Ginny to face up to the relationship between them, betting that she would still be reluctant to part with his life and would choose to assist him in destroying the main soul, and in the end, he really won the bet.Holding Ginny's hand tightly, he smiled jokingly: "I have to say, this bottle of Felix Elixir is really effective."

"I'm just giving you this favor because you chose not to kill me first." Ginny turned her face slightly, and said a little uncomfortably, "I abruptly stopped the half-cast Avada Changing the killing curse to complex soul magic will not only consume a lot of your mana, but also be dangerous. Therefore, I also chose not to sacrifice you, but to help you absorb the main soul. "

"But the choice is still in your hands, isn't it? If you choose to sacrifice me, no one will know, and you don't need to explain to anyone. So, Ginny, you didn't kill me heartlessly, really The reason is because you still love me." Tom approached her with a smile, "What's more, I can't sacrifice you because I love you, and you, can't sacrifice me because of the same reason?"

Seeing Tom's pale face after exhausting his mana, but showing a rare sincere expression, which was completely different from the usual calculating expression, Ginny was silent for a moment and didn't know what to say.She couldn't deny what Tom said, and it was because she still had feelings for Tom that she couldn't completely let go of, that she finally chose to help.The final choice was indeed in her hands, and she still chose to follow her own emotional drive.

Sensing Ginny's slightly loose expression, Tom slowly stroked her face with his hand: "After what happened three years ago, I have already understood my feelings for you. If I sacrificed you in exchange for my The fulfillment of ambition, success like that is empty, Ginny, all I want is you by my side, watching my success with me. Ginny, try to trust me this time, so that we can be truly honest together , instead of calculating and using each other."

After a long silence, Ginny finally said in a hoarse voice: "Tom, I need some time to think through everything thoroughly. Now that the main soul has been wiped out, you must have a lot of things to do, including the integration of the Death Eaters, including the integration with the Phoenix. cooperation and other aftermath matters. Then let us be quiet with each other, and think clearly whether this kind of relationship is love, and think clearly whether we can really come together. Moreover, I also have my family, my Camp, all these are questions I have to worry about, so Tom, I can't give you an answer right away."

Tom's eyes darkened slightly, but he finally nodded: "Okay, I promise you, I will give you time to think about everything and deal with everything. Ginny, I hope to see you again as soon as possible."

Ginny nodded, stood up and said goodbye to Tom hastily, before leaving the Riddle mansion in a panic.After she left, Haierbo slowly swam in from the door, threw Nagini's body in his mouth in front of Tom, and asked suspiciously: "Tom, how are you and Ginny?" Are you reconciled?"

Tom took out the last soul piece from Nagini's body for fusion, and shook his head with a wry smile: "She needs to think about it, and said that it will take a while to give me an answer."

"Will you agree?" Hai Erbo stared at him incredulously, "What if she decides not to be with you after thinking about it?"

"I don't believe so. She just couldn't forgive everything for a while. After all, I was wrong for her. However, since she finally chose to save me today, it means that she still cares about me, so she will definitely come back " Tom said confidently, and then smiled at his pet, "Besides, do you really think I will let her hide like this forever? I love her, and I will definitely make her love me too, and I will let her All worries are gone, remove all obstacles between us. Hai Erbo, I will definitely let Ginny return to the Riddle Mansion."

When the news of Voldemort's elimination spread, the entire magic world was excited about it. This time, with the guarantee from Dumbledore and Tom, everyone believed that Voldemort was really dead and would never come back again.And as the truth about that prophecy and Voldemort's death spread in the magic world, Tom's popularity in the magic world has also increased, and he has faintly been able to rival Dumbledore.Especially under his title of descendant of Slytherin, he almost represented the ancient aristocrats in the magic world, and led those nobles to try to revive the glory of the nobility.

But because Tom abided by the agreement with Dumbledore, reorganized the Death Eaters left behind by the main soul, and maintained his truce agreement with the Order of the Phoenix, therefore, Dumbledore also acquiesced in all of Tom's means of operation.They both know each other that neither their fighting nor their guarding against each other will really stop, but at least it maintains a political political struggle rather than a violent war.And that kind of political struggle will never really disappear in the magic world, so the relationship between the Order of the Phoenix and the Death Eaters has also been greatly eased.

However, the other person revealed in the prophecy, Ginny, who also participated in the battle with the main soul, hid herself in a low-key manner amidst the curiosity of everyone in the magic world, and did not appear in the public eye.Such a mysterious behavior made everyone even more curious, and they even followed up everything about her based on the gossip.Her origin in the Order of the Phoenix and her suspected identity as Tom's fiancée cast a veil of mystery on her story, and also made the relationship between the two factions in the wizarding world even more confusing.However, neither Tom nor the Order of the Phoenix came out to say anything about the people's guesses. They neither objected to clarifications nor agreed to express their views. Finally, after a long time without an answer, everyone slowly calmed down all kinds of speculation and inquiries. Behavior.

After all, the magic world has experienced three years of war, so after Voldemort's death, all kinds of aftermath work continued for a long time.When the forces were re-divided and the Order of the Phoenix and the Death Eaters had all stabilized, it would be nearly a year before Christmas.This time, the Ministry of Magic held a high-profile Christmas ball, inviting members of the Order of the Phoenix and Death Eaters, and Dumbledore and Tom were among those present.Obviously, they were trying to use such a grand way to show the peace in the magic world and the peaceful atmosphere after Voldemort's death.

On the night of the ball, guests from all walks of life gathered in the resplendent hall. The ancient pure-blood nobles and emerging outstanding Muggle-blood wizards all gathered at the ball in the wizarding world, either sincerely or pretending to be polite and greeting.The most eye-catching focus of the audience was Tom in a black formal gown and Dumbledore in a sapphire blue robe and a bow of the same color on his beard.The old white wizard raised his wine glass, looked at Tom in front of him with complicated eyes, finally sighed, and raised his glass to him: "Tom, Merry Christmas! I hope that such a peaceful day in the wizarding world can last forever .”

Tom also raised his glass with a smile, and returned the gift gracefully: "Our expectations are common. Professor Dumbledore, I also sincerely wish you a Merry Christmas!"

Dumbledore stared at him for a long time, and finally nodded: "I believe that you are still different from the main soul. Tom, I still insist on the power of love. I hope you will not let me down again this time." He turned around and walked towards the group of red-haired people not far away.

the power of love?Tom pondered for a moment, and immediately understood what he meant.A while ago, the Order of the Phoenix did not publicly object to the rumor that Ginny was his fiancée, and today at the Ministry of Magic banquet, all the Weasleys were there, but Ginny was not seen alone. He thought, maybe just as he Guessing, no matter what aspect Dumbledore considers, he will not object to Ginny's relationship with him, after all, it is the most beneficial restraint for him.Therefore, the Order of the Phoenix and the Weasleys will not become resistance, the most important thing is Ginny's own attitude towards him.And now, according to Dumbledore's suggestion, has Ginny thought everything through and is finally willing to choose him?

For the first time, feeling a little uneasy, he raised his head and looked around, looking for where Ginny was, and then when he saw the familiar figure not far away, he slowly broke into a smile.Walking straight to her side, he bowed slightly and stretched out his hand: "Miss Weasley, can I ask you to dance?"

Ginny smiled back, as if she put her hand into his palm naturally: "My honor, Mr. Riddle." It took her a year to sort out the relationship between herself and him, and to face up to own feelings.She really still loves him, then she won't run away again.Perhaps, there are still many problems between them. Perhaps, his and her equally rational characters make it impossible for them to love blindly and without scruples, but at least, they can try the so-called love together and spread out their own love. Way.He once abandoned her, and she also used him. The acquaintance started with mutual deception, and I believe it can also have a frank ending.Blindly struggling and escaping cannot kill her heartbeat. As for some small unwillingness, after all, there is still a long way to go, isn't it?

Holding each other's hands, they slid onto the dance floor with soothing music, dancing their unique dance steps among the crowd, exchanging a tacit understanding of the eyes, challenging each other, the infinite possibilities for the future .When the music became softer and the lights dimmed, Tom lowered his head slightly, and while he was spinning with Ginny, he secretly kissed her on the lips.Feeling that she no longer resisted to cater to her, and gradually clenched her hand, Tom believed that this time, he really won her back.
