Chapter 1084: I Am Voldemort
Beside the two of them, Dumbledore was completely calm, not as sad as he had just been. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
His eyes were closed, but he seemed to have recovered, and it seemed that he might wake up at any moment.
Perhaps he had recovered and was listening to a conversation between the two men.
Evan looked at Dumbledore and then at Tom Riddle, and after a moment of silence, he sighed softly.
"It's true that I don't know the world of the Grim Reaper, but I know that you still haven't told the truth. Evan said, raising the Gryffindor sword again, "It's a shame that I gave you a chance, but you repeatedly pushed my limits. Maybe you want to use this as a capital to get Dumbledore to spare you, but you got one thing wrong, Riddle, you are not in a position to bargain all the time, all you need to do is say everything you know, and then we will decide whether to spare you or not, depending on the mood. ”
"Wait, I'm telling the truth!" Riddle shouted hurriedly, stopping in front of Evan .
But he was just a phantom now, and Evan walked straight through him to the front of the cabinet.
"Alright, well, I'll admit I just said a little bit less!" Riddle said, "It's just me, it's not the soul that arrives in that world, it's just me, and after the split from the subject, I can't go back!"
Unmoved, Evan raised Gryffindor's sword alofer.
"Stop, stop!" his voice sharpened, "I'll admit, I cried at the time, it's humiliating......"
"There's nothing to be ashamed of, Tom!" Dumbledore said calmly, slowly opening his eyes and looking at Tom Riddle in front of him, "It's not a sin to cry, it's just a normal expression of feelings, it's not easy to admit your weakness, and sometimes, it's a kind of courage." ”
"Professor!" shouted Aven.
Tom Riddle didn't speak, he just turned his head to the side, as if he didn't want to look at Dumbledore.
"You've done a good job, Aven!" said Dumbledore, "who protected me when I was lost, and now put the sword down, Tom is right, and I think I really need to talk to him about the ring and the Resurrection Stone." Hello, Tom, I must admit that I didn't expect to see you here before tonight, in this form!"
Evan put down his sword and stepped aside, now that Dumbledore had woken up, it was over!
Dumbledore's tone was casual, as if he were greeting an old friend he hadn't seen in a long time.
It's hard to imagine that not so long ago, he was in a life-and-death duel with Voldemort.
"Hello, Professor!" Riddle said in a dry tone, turning his head back and staring at Dumbledore coldly, as if weighing him, "To be honest, I did think that one day, if anyone could find this place, it would be you. However, I didn't expect it to be so long, and you look so much older than before!"
"No matter how powerful it is, there is no way to conquer time. Dumbledore said, "We are all mortals. ”
"But I conquered death, and I have done it!" Riddle said unceremoniously, "I am immortal!"
"No one is immortal, death is not the most terrible thing, Tom, that is just the beginning of another great journey, I was expecting you to change this after seeing the world of death, it seems that it is not. Dumbledore said in a disappointed tone, "You value these meaningless things too much, and you end up losing yourself!"
"You haven't changed at all!" Riddle said in disgust, "put away your rhetoric, my dear professor, you know, those things don't work for me, and I don't think you'll be deceived by me a second time!"
"It's not a question of cheating, it's a question of whether or not to choose to forgive and believe, and perhaps, I will believe you again tonight. Dumbledore said, his blue eyes staring at Riddle, "I can feel that you are not so evil like Voldemort, but like the boy I saw in the orphanage!"
"I'm Voldemort!" Riddle exclaimed, suddenly becoming fierce and terrifying.
Evan looked at him warily, his eyes wide, and he stared at Dumbledore fiercely, but Dumbledore didn't answer.
Instead, a kind smile appeared on his face.
"No, you're not him!" Dumbledore affirmed, "you're fundamentally different from him. ”
"Enough, you're as annoying as ever!" Riddle said unnaturally, visibly becoming more alert, "don't be pretty, Professor, we all know what kind of person each other is. Let's be honest, I can tell you everything I know, everything you want to know, I only have one request, don't ruin me!"
"Tom, in my eyes, you will always be my student!" said Dumbledore patiently, "I said I might be willing to believe you again." And, I must say sorry that I led you into Hogwarts, but I didn't do my duty to teach, and I ...... if I did"
"Hypocrisy!" Riddle said, taking a step back, "everything is done on my own terms, and if I have to say, I can only tell you that I would have felt more pleasant without you watching." Do you think I'm going to be grateful to Dade for your advice and be a Defence Against the Dark Arts professor in obscurity, or do you follow Professor Slughorn's idea and enter the Ministry of Magic to compete for that ridiculous ministerial position? No, I'm Voldemort, I'm the heir of Salazar Slytherin, in my veins, with the blood of Salazar Slytherin himself, I was born to make the world remember me, I want them to be terrified when they hear my name, and they tremble on the ground, I will revive the glory of House Slytherin, I will change the end of the wizarding world, I will lead the change......"
"Great dream, but you're doing it the wrong way!" Dumbledore said calmly.
"I made it!" Riddle's voice was a little out of shape.
"Do you really think so?" Dumbledore asked rhetorically, "I just heard the conversation between you and Aven, and you seem to have anticipated the current situation, the more the soul splits, not the stronger, but the more chaotic, losing all reason and becoming a terrible monster. Horace certainly didn't tell you this at the time, or you misunderstood what he meant. ”
Riddle stopped talking, obviously unable to refute, just staring at Dumbledore coldly.
"I'm Voldemort!" he said slowly, "and when I figured out where I came from, I gave myself this name, discarding the name of my filthy Muggle father, and I knew that one day, when I became the greatest wizard in the world, wizards around the world would not dare to say it easily, and they would only chant it silently in their hearts with awe and fear." Professor, do you really think you're going to win? Do you really think you have what it takes to destroy me?"
