Chapter 187: Choice
Voldemort reacted quickly, and with a flick of his wand, he stopped the Death Reminder Charm. The green icicle fell to the desk and shattered into pieces of ice.
Norlin smiled with satisfaction. Compared to the law of fire that he groped around, the law of ice was studied more easily. Because not long ago, he discovered that the law can be mobilized by ancient magic scripts.
The law that even the flow of mana can cool and freeze is undoubtedly extremely powerful. Correspondingly, when using the power of the law, Nolin's mana consumption is not ordinarily large.
The amount of mana he consumed in such a single move was enough to cover the amount of two or three life-requirping spells.
The current law of ice is still more deterrent than useful, and the next step is to study how to reduce the magic power used.
But there is no doubt that this spell made Voldemort and Karkaroff feel great pressure at the same time.
What level of power is this, so that almost half of the office is coated with a layer of snow-white frost in an instant?
Voldemort didn't say a word, he just stared into Nolin's eyes, and finally asked gloomily:
"The power in the Mystical Book of Laws again?"
From Voldemort's hoarse voice, Karkaroff could hear a deep-hidden longing.
"Guess?"
Norin said with a smile, the meaning of which made Voldemort angry for a moment. That feeling...... It's as if he was condescending to look down on a lowly weakling!
When did he Voldemort fall to such a point!
Voldemort controlled his thoughts of tearing Norin to shreds with a spell, and his cold eyes paused for a moment before finally coming to a decision that made him feel humiliated.
Walk.
It's the third time...... This was the third time he had decided to escape from Nolin. He came to Durmstrang with confidence to recover a little strength, but he didn't expect to meet this terrifying imp here again.
Although he was almost immortal at this time, it was extremely difficult to recover, and Voldemort did not want to return to the palace in Albania. And he has a hunch that if he continues to fight, he will most likely lose.
"There won't be a next time, Yaxley."
Voldemort's figure gradually became illusory, leaving behind a cold voice before disappearing completely. It's just that in Karkaroff's ears, this sentence actually revealed some lustful inwardness.
Is this still the Dark Lord who has been invincible in the past?
Karkaroff watched Voldemort give him one last look that seemed to contain some kind of menace. Then, he turned into a plume of black smoke, pierced through the cracks in the window, and broke into the wind and snow outside.
Norlin sat back in his chair, not thinking of stopping Voldemort from leaving. If you stay, you can't kill him, it's a waste of effort, it's better to wait until you are sure that he can't be reborn, and then give him a fatal blow.
But Voldemort's strength recovery speed is a bit fast......
In the confrontation just now, although Norlin acted leisurely and relaxed, Voldemort's life-seeking spell put a lot of pressure on him. Compared to Hogwarts, the strength has risen to a new level.
Merely...... Why is he here? If he hadn't happened to look for Karkarov, he wouldn't have been able to find out his whereabouts.
Nolin thought silently in his heart, looked at Karkaroff playfully, and said:
"Mr. Principal, doesn't that seem like a small one?"
His gaze was on Karkaroff's left hand, which had not yet had time to lower his sleeve.
The Dark Mark now looked particularly ironic.
"Who the hell are you?"
Karkaroff's gray eyes were full of panic and vigilance, and his demeanor as a principal had long been forgotten by him. He wasn't to blame for that, no matter who it was, seeing a third-year student easily drive the Dark Lord away, wouldn't have a much better reaction than him.
"As you can see, ordinary exchange students."
Norin smiled, his gaze wandered over Karkaroff and said, "It's you, Mr. Headmaster, I didn't expect to be a Death Eater......"
Norin, of course, knew Karkaroff's identity as a former Death Eater, and speaking out was only to scare him.
Sure enough, Karkaroff took a step back, his expression was a little panicked, and he gritted his teeth and said:
"I just used to play for the Dark Lord, I can't ...... now"
"Be quiet, maybe you haven't gone far."
Norin put his index finger on his lips and said mysteriously.
Karkaroff shrank in fright, looked around in a hurry, and after a while realized that Norlin was playing tricks on him, glaring at Norlin, he couldn't help but feel a wave of humiliation in his heart.
As the head of the school, Norlin subconsciously compared him to Dumbledore, and then pouted with disdain, losing interest in continuing to play tricks on Karkaroff.
Norlin restrained his smile and said lightly:
"Tell me, what did Voldemort come to you for?"
Karkaroff shuddered again, and then seemed to feel that it was really shameless to be questioned by a student like this, and gritted his teeth and did not speak. However, in Nolin's increasingly cold eyes, he felt a chill in his heart, and said reluctantly:
"I haven't said it yet, I was interrupted by you."
“……”
Norin didn't know what to say for a while, he felt that the magic fluctuations inside were wrong outside the office, and he didn't have the heart to eavesdrop outside, but he didn't expect to come one step earlier.
"Forget it. If I'm not mistaken, he wants you to go back to his command and help him. ”
Norlin thought for a moment and said, a smile appeared on his face again, "Then the question is, Headmaster Karkaroff, do you want to return to Voldemort's camp and grovel to the bottom of the ice, or continue to run away from the darkness to the light?" ”
"This ......"
On Karkaroff's left hand, the Dark Devil mark seemed to have a needle piercing, reminding him of his loyalty. He was in a cold sweat and in a dilemma.
If he continued to turn his back on Voldemort, he didn't know whether he was alive or dead, but now that he is still alive, it is difficult to guarantee that he will appear in front of him at any time to give him a life curse.
If you regain your allegiance to Voldemort...... Not to mention the unfathomable Dumbledore, there was a little monster in front of him who also hid a knife in his smile.
Karkaroff felt that he was not wrong, and it was not an exaggeration to describe this exchange student with a knife hidden in his smile, because he was smiling and saying:
"I remember when you first came here you wanted to do something to me, I thought you were here to get specific information about Voldemort, didn't you, Mr. Headmaster? I'm very vindictive......"
Karkarov's face turned pale.
……
Half an hour later, Norlin effectively emerged from the principal's office, holding a pass to Unleddal.
Karkaroff sat in the rector's chair, staring at his back inexplicably, and couldn't help but scold:
"Monsters."
