Chapter 123: Flicker, Flicker
There was an awkward silence, and Tom Riddle didn't reply for a long time, probably startled.
Ricardo thought about it, as Voldemort's great disciple and the "fanatical believer" template he had just shown, it was estimated that he would need to be a little more verbose to express his reverence.
He really has Voldemort's inheritance in his memory, and the other party also taught him magic himself, and now fooling a remnant soul with memory loss is simply handy.
[My Mentor, from the day you began to use dark magic, the whole world whispered your name: Lord Voldemort. O O Teacher, you have used your supreme wisdom to help me grow day by day and become the embodiment of darkness. You tell me that one day, the life of a wizard will be endless, and you, will be crowned king! γ
Tom Riddle: [...... Is it like this? γ
Will he be so secondary two in the future......
[That's right, mentor! Have you forgotten all this? You have ruled over us Deatheaters with your strength and wisdom, and I know that you are using your power carefully. You are the lightning that pierces fear, you are the light of dark wisdom, you are the only myth in the eternal sky! γ
"Vomit ......"
After writing this, Ricardo himself couldn't help but cover his chest and retched a few times.
[I'm glad someone can recognize my original name, but now, I'm just a remnant of memory......]
[Could it be that the tutor really doesn't remember?] Ricardo wrote, "Strange, didn't you tell me that after taking your Horcrux from Lucius, you will merge with the memories of the main soul? γ
[Is this like this......]
[This must be Dumbledore's conspiracy!] The speed of his writing has increased again, and he has actually erased your memory, Mentor! Damn, I'm not going to let him go! γ
β¦β¦ At this time, Voldemort, who only has fifth-grade memories, wants to ask, what did you kid make up in his brain?
But he still restrained himself from writing a few words: "Maybe. But what did I ask you to take me for in the first place? γ
Ricardo deliberately paused for a moment, and when the time came, he suddenly slammed into a row of tables, shaking the diary to the ground.
[That's right!] That's it! He quickly picked it up and scribbled in his diary, "Mentor, you are truly an incomparable genius! I think I know your intentions! You are simply the smartest being in the world! γ
β¦β¦ Tom had given up on the idea of keeping up with Ricardo's thinking.
[What do you mean to ......]
[No wonder, a Horcrux can have such a powerful consciousness! ] You told me before that war that death is not the end of life, but a new beginning, and that's what you meant! γ
What have I been doing in the past few decades? Tell me, disciple. γ
[Well, I understand. γ
Ricardo knew that the other party was already half-convinced, so he sorted out his thoughts again, and then began a new nonsense.
This time I made it up to a certain degree. First of all, he must have been a child when he "encountered" Voldemort - otherwise he wouldn't have been half-fanatical. Second, he had to show why Voldemort had taken him as a discipleβthat is, his worth. Finally, you have to add a little bit of your own careful thinking, and this thinking should be obvious.
A certain amount of independence is a must, since he calls himself the third generation of the Dark Lord in front of Tom Riddle, he must have the arrogance of being the Dark Lord, reverence but not yielding, otherwise Voldemort, who is already suspicious, will definitely not believe it.
To make him aware of his "ambition", and he thinks that he manipulates his "ambition", so that he is hunted as a hunter.
[Decades ago, when we were blocked by Silent Alley across the sea, and Dumbledore was entrenched in the school, you gathered all the purebloods to return the wizard a good fortune. At that time, when the mentor was on the expedition, he said to me:
{Child, you awakened to the dark arts sooner than anyone else, and the future is certainly not under me, so you cannot remain in my side as my last hope.} Go, hide, study the supreme source of dark magic, and when I return, you will be my next heir! }
{As a sign of my trust in you, you will receive my Horcrux from Lucius Malfoy when it is time to practice soul magic, and a portion of my soul will be your test object, a sacrifice to make magic great again!} }
At this point, Ricardo "scratched" and left a heavy mark in the diary - strangely, not punctured.
γMentor! Your selfless actions at that time shook my young heart greatly! You are the only hope in this magical world! Sure enough, only black magic can save wizards! γ
[And according to my speculation, if you can't connect to the main soul now and awaken again, this must be Dumbledore's conspiracy!] He may have felt your determination to slash yourself, and he actually severed your connection with the main soul, and wanted to break you one by one, killing you in the dark abyss, so that the magic world could be firmly controlled by him! γ
[What do you think, hidden in the hands of Lucius, if he fails, what will that fool do?] When I got you, he was going to hand you over to the Weasleys as a veiled gesture of submission to Dumbledore! γ
[But you have insight into people's hearts, and you have seen the unreliability of the Lucius family, and tell me, let me skillfully take your holy weapon at that time, and finally let me get you, laying the foundation for your resurrection!] I've never seen anyone so smart! γ
With so many half-truths and half-truths to tell, Ricardo breathed a sigh of relief and pondered the truth of this passage.
This statement was so fake that he didn't believe it himself, but he wanted Voldemort to be in half-belief, in the confusion of truth and falsehood.
The purpose of fooling this thing is not necessarily to make the other party think it is true, but it can also be to make the other party believe it.
He said so much nonsense just to make the other party think about the truth of his words, the loopholes in his language, and forget the most important thing - is he his disciple or not?
In order to disguise this purpose, Ricciardo embodies a contradiction in his discourse - is he worthy of Voldemort's trust?
He knew full well that Voldemort in distress would not trust anyone - it was human instinct, but would try to control people.
Ricardo's words were reverent, but with a kind of disobedient arrogance or ambition, which was to guide Voldemort in a direction: he was an immature careerist who wanted to replace Voldemort, but this method of disobedience was Voldemort's trick.
The smarter the person, the more he likes to dwell on the contradictions in his words, Voldemort will hear all kinds of loopholes in his words, and forget to pursue the identity of "Voldemort's disciple", and at the same time, he will also fall into the mistake of underestimating him and thinking that he is enough to master Ricardo.
There is even a hint in his deranged words: the reason why Ricardo is valued by Voldemort is to provide a body for his resurrection!
However, Ricardo's purpose was to make Voldemort think that he was his disciple, thus providing the illusion that "I could control him when I was a child, and I could control him when I grew up".
But I didn't know that Ricardo wanted him to think so, to control the "ambitious but too immature Voldemort disciple" in his hands, use "him" step by step to study soul magic, absorb "his" soul, and finally master everything about "him", including the results of the experiments conducted by Voldemort, while Ricardo himself was at the highest level, secretly controlling Voldemort when Voldemort was proud of controlling the "Voldemort disciple"!
