Chapter 61 Hard-Working Tom Riddle 007 (3rd Update)

How could Grete let down his guard in the face of this insidious guy since childhood?

Even when he was thinking about something, he did not forget to divide a trace of his mind on Tom Riddle.

Seeing him rushing towards him, the fangs in his hand were close to the notebook that hosted the residual soul in an instant.

"Stop, I'm joking."

Even if it was a residual soul, Tom Riddle still seemed to be scared and broke into a cold sweat, and retreated cautiously.

"You are really good." After a moment, Tom Riddle adjusted his mood and praised with his arms folded.

"Why don't you follow me? Although I don't know what your relationship with the original body is, you should know that every time a Horcrux is separated, his already torn brain will become more and more crazy.

There is no future in following him. Come with me, you help me revive, and I promise that one day your status will be above ten thousand people."

Grete yawned and said unhappily, "Empty words are not enough. The professor left me countless magical knowledge. You want me to work with you without any evidence. Do you think I am the idiot of the Weasley family?"

"How about this, you teach me what you know, and I promise not to hand you over to Dumbledore."

Tom Riddle's eyes were like a suppressed volcano. He didn't expect that one day he would be threatened.

He was proud by nature. Even if he was under the knife, he didn't choose to give in.

"Why don't you hand me over to Dumbledore? I'm a little curious about what he thinks of a wizard who dares to cast the Unforgivable Curse in Hogwarts."

Grete frowned, as if the young Tom Riddle and Professor Voldemort were indeed a little different.

As Professor Voldemort, who endured humiliation and could live on the back of Quirrell's head, Grete believed that if someone threatened him like this.

His first reaction should be to plan before taking action, rather than choosing this kind of desperate situation.

"In that case, then we have nothing to talk about."

How could Grete accept his threat? The fangs in his hand stabbed straight forward.

Seeing that Grete did not hesitate at all, Tom Riddle was a little dumbfounded.

Negotiations are all about going back and forth, how can you overturn the table as soon as you start talking.

He panicked instantly. He originally thought that Grete was so deliberate to get him because he treated him as a treasure.

Now it seems that he may not even be as good as a broken tile.

After this battle, the momentum softened all of a sudden.

Fortunately, just after he pierced through one page, Gret heard his words of surrender, and tore it with his hand, and the waste paper stained with poison turned into a ball of ash in the air.

He did not ask Tom Riddle to pay for free.

Since he had surrendered, even if it could be seen that he was now convinced in words but not in heart.

Gret was still willing to give him a chance to negotiate.

After a verbal battle, Gret and Tom Riddle made an agreement.

Tom Riddle participated in Gret's research and provided corresponding technical support.

As a reward, Gret provided him with the vitality necessary for activities in the outside world and returned him freedom at the appropriate time, with a time limit of three years.

After everything was agreed upon, Tom Riddle, who did not need to sleep, was forced by Gret to study a spell that could not be betrayed for the soul.

No matter what business, the most feared thing is not the external enemy, but the appearance of traitors.

This is true for business, politics, and war.

What Gret has to do, whether it is the business that is about to unfold or the war that will inevitably exist in the future, cannot allow the existence of traitors.

But as the number of people increases, he can't sign a contract with everyone, so he needs a reliable oath spell to restrain him.

It is true that it is beautiful to come together for the same goal, support each other, and not betray each other.

But that is an ideal country, and Gretel never hesitates to look at the future from the worst perspective.

In the future visible to the naked eye, he will be responsible for the lives of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of people, so a strong constraint is a necessary insurance.

He is not Grindelwald, he does not have such good eloquence to make thousands of people go through fire and water for him.

He does not think he has such great charm.

He is not Voldemort, who uses endless high pressure to make everyone loyal to him.

He does not need a yes-man, differences can exist, and arguments can also seek consensus. He only needs to ensure that no one will betray, so as not to make his relatives sad and his enemies happy.

As an expert in playing with souls, Gretel believes that Tom Riddle can meet his needs.

He does not consider how much effort it takes to design a new spell from scratch.

Anyway, when he heard Gretel's request, Tom Riddle almost gave up.

Fortunately, Grete negotiated with him in a friendly manner (using force) with his fangs, and he "willingly" accepted the task.

Grete was not afraid of his tricks, because no one could play tricks in front of the panel.

Except for an unknown prophecy that has not been logged into the panel so far.

Anyway, Grete had given up, and he was sure that he did not have this talent.

Before leaving the auditorium, Professor Trelawney told him that if he still wanted to take the class, he could come at any time.

She even hinted that as long as he took the divination class in his third year, she would give him a high score even if he did not predict anything.

Now it seems that she can only be disappointed, because this kind of talent is really not something that a mortal like him can have.

Even if everyone thinks he has a talent for prophecy, he will not take it seriously.

The panel had told him long ago to give up this unrealistic idea.

If anyone in Hogwarts had the most talent, Grett felt that it must be the crazy girl Luna.

Yes, in just two weeks, Luna Lovegood had earned her own exclusive title in Ravenclaw, which was full of weirdos.

In Grett's opinion, this girl was too evil.

He and the other thirteen people rarely talked in the tower.

Luna would still suddenly come to him and lower her voice.

"You have the same smell, I can tell."

Merlin, if it weren't in Hogwarts, Grett would have wanted someone to kidnap this crazy girl and send her far away.

Fortunately, Luna was always alone, not close to anyone, and kept her words to herself.

Otherwise, Grett felt that his team, which had not yet been formed, would be known to the world by Luna before it was released.

By then, what would be ushered in would probably be the joint suppression of Dumbledore and the Ministry of Magic.

Then, he would go to Azkaban, where talents abound, to develop his own team.

Think about it, a team whose purpose is to break the Statute of Secrecy, the members are either murderous prison inmates or eerie Dementors.

It is not a serious picture no matter how you think about it.

Gret felt that he needed to find time to have a good exchange with this spiritual crazy girl.

At least he had to figure out what attracted her attention.

If that didn't work, he could only use the Oblivion Charm to modify her memory.

Although he felt that the Oblivion Charm might not work as he wished on this girl.

It was late at night when Gret returned to the tower.

There was no Fawkes escort today, and facing Filch's patrol, he had to learn from other night walkers to play hide-and-seek.

It must be said that squatting on mushrooms with the Disillusionment Charm under the eyes of the Squibs was indeed a bit thrilling.

When Gret entered the lounge, he saw the pair of unfocused silver eyes again, looking at him with a smile.

To act tomorrow, Gret made a secret decision.

The third update, too late, good night, fellow readers.

By the way, I don’t remember if I’ve said this, but I’ll say it again, Luna is not the heroine either.

All the female characters that appear are currently supporting actresses, and Grey is a man who rarely has romantic relationships.
