No.27 Holy Grail 6 (Reversed)
Well, Riddle's (myself & diary) interaction with Opal was delivered.
V big, if you care about Xiao Ao, just say it, why are you still pretending to be so blunt...... Could it be that your attribute is actually "sullen"?
But this tragic book is only the life of cannon fodder.,Although the male protagonist of this article is the real Riddle and not him? (Amane: It's not because of your setting, bastard!) οΌ
Finally Ps: Xiaoxi, you are really miserable, you actually live in the same room with the big demon king......
==============================================
Holy Grail 6 (Reversed): A Broken Past.
γ
Hogwarts Slytherin common room and bedroom

Almost as soon as the words were spoken, both Opal and the figure reacted.
"Sorry [sorry] ......"
Then there was an almost simultaneous apology, which made both of them stunned for a moment.
Opal half-covered his mouth and sneered softly, and the corners of the lips of the man who resembled Riddle also smiled slightly.
"Well, it seems that both of us seem to know beings very similar to each other."
Finally, the figure resembling Riddle spoke first, "This must be an interesting coincidence, isn't it?" β
[Indeed.] But I'm more curious about who you call 'Opal'. ]
Pursing his lips and smiling, Opal waved his hand and asked the house-elf to bring some refreshments. ]
After perceiving Opal's way of speaking, the man who resembled Riddle flashed a trace of nostalgia in his blue eyes, but then this trace of nostalgia turned into a whirlpool and precipitated into the depths of his eyes: "The Opal I said is not human, she is a female unicorn, I have had the pleasure of seeing her transform into a human form." β
[Opal ...... Is that the red-eyed unicorn in the Forbidden Forest at Hogwarts? ]
Opal was stunned for a moment, then reacted, and said a little strangely, [You can actually see the human form of a unicorn...... Looks like you're on good terms with her! ]
Gossip, this is absolute gossip!
Unicorns are a herd that follows the principle of escapism, and are therefore close to centaurs and magical creatures in the good and orderly camp, and usually ordinary people or wizards can only see them from a distance, let alone contact them or even further accept them - those who are said to be attracted to pure virgin girls are only male unicorns (Amane: Why do I think it makes people sweat so much to write this?). Female unicorns are far rarer than male unicorns.
"You know that, too?"
Sitting down on a chair in the room, the man raised an eyebrow after hearing Opal's words - in Opal's opinion, even this little action was very similar to Riddle, if it weren't for the wrong feeling of breath, and if she knew that Riddle was in the secret realm of the lake now, I am afraid that she would really think that the person in front of her was Riddle, "That's right, you have the same name as the female unicorn." I don't know how she's doing as an immortal......"
[Same name as me...... Which Opal are you referring to? ]
Opal blinked, and sat down across from the man, looking confused.
"Unicorns shouldn't have duplicate names, right?"
[It's true that it won't appear, but the one named Opal in the current unicorn herd is also a red-eyed unicorn, but it's just a unicorn cub that has been born less than twenty years ago.] ]
"How so?"
The figure frowned, "Unicorns are indeed immortals...... Has anything changed at Hogwarts during this time? β
[I don't know much about this......]
Opal shrugged his shoulders and pointed to his heart, [but there's another unicorn named Opal, you should be able to feel her power here.] ]
βοΌ Is this a life transfer?! Have you received a life transfer from a unicorn?! β
After squinting his eyes and carefully feeling the fluctuations in Opal's magic, the man stood up in astonishment, his blue eyes full of disbelief and a deeper layer of gloom.
[Hmm...... That's why my name is 'Opal'. ]
Opal didn't elaborate, but the words were enough to tell the story.
"That's ...... ......"
The man's eyes were slightly closed, and although there was sadness on his face, Opal was sensitive to a subtle sense of incongruityβa look that was more like a mocking smile than a sad loss.
This person definitely has something to do with Riddle, maybe it is the diary that Riddle left behind, otherwise it is impossible that even this smile is very similar, but it may be because of the bottle of unicorn blood and the sequelae of black magic, this person's magic fluctuations seem to have changed considerably.
Recalling the time when she was with Riddle, Riddle's look when she mentioned ordinary humans, Opal frowned slightly-because of the class difference, although she could barely feel the fluctuations in the magic of the person in front of her, she did not find any similarities between him and Riddle's magic.
"Sorry for the gaffe, because that unicorn was the best friend I knew when I was at Hogwarts, so ......"
After a moment of silence, the man reopened his eyes, and the depths of his blue eyes seemed to contain a bottomless storm.
[It's okay, I think I can understand that.] ]
Nodding his head and smiling at him to show that he didn't care, Opal opened his mouth to turn the subject back to the topic, [So, can you tell me now, who was the person who opened the secret room back then?] ]
"I can't officially say that person's name because of the secrecy spell."
The man seemed to have adjusted his emotions at the moment, looked at Opal and smiled, "However, you can apply to check the Ravenclaw student profile of Hogwarts from 1937 to 1942, I believe you will have a conclusion." β
[Isn't it?] ]
Opal immediately grimaced, [Although Ravenclaw's filing cabinet does not need to use the academy badge, it needs to answer the corresponding magic questions, which is very troublesome!] ]
Relatively speaking, among the four academies, Huffpuff's information is the best to check, because it is not locked at all, as long as you have the prefect badge of any academy, you can go to check it. By the way, what Gryffindor needs is the Gryffindor House Prefect Badge.
"Who made you unable to accept the memory replay, although I can't name that person because of the secrecy spell, but at least I can replay the whole thing to you at that time......"
In this regard, the man just spread his hand and said that his love could not help, "Now you can only check it yourself." β
[Got it.] I'll take the time to go back to the archives later. ]
Rubbing his temples, Opal sighed resignedly, [Really, why do you encounter such troublesome things every time......]
In this regard, the man just smiled, and was about to speak again, but the originally clear figure began to blur again: "Ah...... Looks like it's time for me to come out. β
[Well, you go back.] I'll discuss with you after I find out the information, is it okay? ]
"Okay."
The man nodded in agreement, then turned into a point of light and returned to the journal on the table, and the originally open journal was closed again.
[What a hassle...... This diary ......]
After repeatedly checking with his memories that there should be no problems with the potions he had prepared that day, Opal finally breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.
I didn't feel it in the diary yet, but once I came out, I could feel the gap between the two at first glance - it was not a gap in demonic power, but a more intuitive gap in knowledge.
Forget it, at least the current matter must be solved first, after all, it involves the ownership of the Academy Cup this academic year.
With that in mind, Opal tucked his journal into his desk and prepared to rest.
======================I'm the dividing line for switching roles===============??? γ»The secret land of the lake

Therefore, as long as you have an intersection with that witch, you basically only have to help count the money after she is trapped.
Pressing his aching temples, Riddle placed the so-called "message connector" he had just canceled on the corresponding instrument, then waved his hand, turned off the magic projection screen in front of him that was like a waterfall with a large amount of information, and sighed.
But speaking of which, after I really took over, I found out that there were so many things that the witch had to deal with every day......
Thinking of the huge amount of information processing that was completely confused and so busy at the beginning, even if he barely adapted to it now, he would still be dizzy after a long time, Riddle felt helpless.
Monitoring the energy flow of the plane world, the causal regulation of the branches of the parallel world, the report of the energy of the Qi clan and the results of scientific research, the drainage of sealing points to ensure the stability of time and space, and the channeling of high psionic energy caused by magic and rituals......
It's no wonder that the witch is usually so resentful in her words and manners, and she can be lazy and push back when she encounters problems, and she is probably also a bad character who is busy with so many trivial things.
You must know that this kind of official business is completely different from what he had to do when dealing with Death Eaters in the past, even if he thinks that his temper has been curtailed a lot, he has a feeling of irritability, and it is really thanks to the fact that the witch has been doing it for so many years - listening to the eyes of the other Qi clans in the secret realm of the lake, that witch has been reigning for at least a thousand years as a pure-blood, should it be said that she is really worthy of being an immortal seed?
It's just that such a heavy official business without a day off is handled...... Even if it's an immortal, this kind of life is too boring, right?
Remembering that since he seemed to have a memory, the witch seemed to spend most of his time in the secret realm of the lake, even if he was not out for a long time, Riddle couldn't help but shake his head.
If in the past, he relied on his understanding of black magic to act a little arbitrarily, then in the past ten years since he lost his power, his understanding of magic theory has deepened, and he has a deeper understanding of the once scorned saying "the higher the power, the greater the responsibility".
If being busy like this is the price of immortality, then he is really grateful.
"Really, I don't know what happened to that witch, she left in such a hurry."
Riddle, who stood up from the monitoring position and was about to go back to his treehouse to rest, suddenly remembered one thing that Vivien had told him before leaving, and after looking at the time and turning it down, he could only reluctantly go in another direction: "Cerberus, it's time for you to eat." β
Anyway, he couldn't see the origin of this big black dog who showed a lot of hostility towards him as soon as he saw him, but because it was something that Vivien explained with a smile on her face, he still had to do it even if he was not happy - after all, he didn't want to wait for the witch to come back and let him suffer inexplicably because of her hatred for this matter.
Tsk, if it weren't for the fact that the contract collar around the black dog's neck could only be taken off when the host died, except for the witch, and the installation method was only known to the witch, he really didn't mind directly destroying this noisy black dog that barked at him every time he saw him.
Fortunately, although it is called "feeding", all Riddle has to do is put the food prepared by the chef on the food plate of the black dog called "Cerberus".
And Riddle doesn't know if it's his own delusion, this black dog seems to eat all human food, and behaves quite humanly, if you look into its eyes, you can clearly see its panic and fear.
Riddle remembers very well that when he first saw the black dog, it didn't react yet, and it looked at him with only curiosity, and when the witch called him "Riddle", it looked at him as an indifferent observer. It wasn't until the witch mentioned that he used to be "Voldemort" during the chat, and the eyes of the black dog lying on the side with an unwilling face turned into horror almost instantly, and then showed a strong desire to attack him - so in order to take care of the poor and prevent himself from slaughtering the noisy guy by mistake, Riddle ignored the black dog's struggles and restrained it with a chain on the edge of the monitoring room, the length of the chain was just enough to control the black dog's free movement, he could see, But the black dog could not bite him to the length.
But he had already secretly experimented with the spell unraveling, and this black dog had not changed at all, so it should not be an Animagus. Judging by the name, maybe it was the witch who didn't know where to search for the immortal species that was about to become extinct - but probably before she was brought to the secret realm of the lake, she was once raised by a wizard who didn't know which one was destroyed by his Death Eaters, right? (Celestial sound: V is great, Nai's spell is useless, because Siris was fed a year-long curing potion by Opal, and it was really mistaken.) οΌ

After putting away the food, Riddle returned to his treehouse in the secret realm of the lake, and was about to rest, only to find that the two-way mirror in the room was lit up.
This two-way mirror was placed in the witch's room before, is it looking for her?
After hesitating for a moment, Riddle sat down in front of the two-way mirror and connected to the communication channel, only to find that the image on the mirror was actually a person he was very familiar with: "Opal? β
[Miss Vivien...... Huh?! Riddle?! ]
Obviously, I didn't expect that the person who turned on the double-way mirror this time would be Riddle, and Opal on the other end of the double-way mirror was obviously stunned for a moment, and hurriedly changed the words written on the mirror in a somewhat panicked manner, [I was about to reply to Vivian about the pile of official documents she handed me before, but why did Riddle use Miss Vivien's two-way mirror?] ]
If it weren't for the fact that the only frequency that the two-way mirror was turned on was Vivien, Opal would have thought that he had used the wrong one.
"I'm in the secret realm of the lake now."
Leaning back in his chair, Riddle didn't particularly care that his Silent Girl was connected to the witch - because after years of getting along, he was already very confident in his special meaning for the Silent Girl, unlike the use and caution he had when they first came into contact.
The word "betrayal" does not appear in his dictionary of silent girls.
[Really?] ]
Opal in the mirror, the pigeon's blood-red eyes lit up instantly, [Then trouble Riddle directly owl to give me a one-time door key to the secret realm of the lake, okay?!] I'll be over next week when I'm off for the weekend, and I'll have taken care of the papers that Miss Vivien gave me last time. ]
She just wanted to ask Senior Sister Qianwei about Riddle, but she didn't expect to be caught the first time she was a thief......
"You haven't had a good rest lately?"
Noticing the slightly puffy blue under Opal's eyes in the mirrored image, Riddle suddenly remembered that it should be after two o'clock in the night, and Riddle admitted that he was feeling a little unpleasant now.
[It's just that there's been a lot of things lately, and the next Halloween holiday is just in time to rest.] ]
Sticking out his tongue, Opal hurriedly wrote on the double-sided mirror, [When Miss Vivien handed me the document last time, she said that it needed to be dealt with as soon as possible, so I thought I would take care of it first and then rest.] ]
Originally, she really wanted to delay a little longer, but now that Riddle is in the secret realm of the lake, then whatever she says must be dealt with before she comes to the secret realm of the lake next time, otherwise there will be no excuse to see Riddle!
"What is that guy doing so desperately."
Riddle admitted that he was a little unhappy now, and after looking at Opal's image again, he raised his eyebrows, and his tone was a little cold, "I'll let the owl pass in a few days, and that's all for this contact." Hurry up and give me a rest and see what you look like now. β
[Got it.] Goodbye Riddle! ]
Completely ignoring the coldness of Riddle's tone, Opal scratched his hair with a little red face and turned off the two-way mirror - as for what she was going to do after that, anyway, Nagini was not here now, and Riddle couldn't see it, so it didn't matter if she didn't get caught again!
His silent girl is good at everything, but sometimes she tries too hard.
The next time we meet, be sure to say a few words about her.
Looking at the dimming double-sided mirror, Riddle closed his eyes slightly and shook his head.
Never mind......
That's what makes his Silent Girl so good.
