"Bah bang bang!"

"Well said, you are indeed a member of Slytherin. You are very smart. But, don't you know that you should not go out at night at this time?"

Voldemort clapped his hands, and the crisp sound quickly echoed in the castle.

It must be said that Voldemort in this era has an admirable temperament. Even though he knew that applauding would attract the attention of professors, he still did not hesitate to praise the outstanding juniors.

Calm and elegant, there is no sign of panic in the face of sudden accidents. If this is Voldemort in this period, it is no wonder that so many people are willing to follow him.

But it's also very possible that he just looked down on Sephiroth, who was still a student.

"If we fight, maybe I am not your Highness's opponent, but it will not be easy for His Highness to quickly deal with me. If His Highness doesn't want to be blocked by the professor, he will naturally not take action. Therefore, I am not worried about my own safety.

.”

While speaking, Sephiroth kept looking directly into Voldemort's eyes to prevent himself from accidentally glancing at the Basilisk's eyes. He did not have such high magic resistance to resist instant death magic. Of course, he was also aware of every move of the Basilisk.

It's better to keep an eye out at all times, otherwise it won't be good if you get attacked by surprise.

He didn't want to gamble on whether Voldemort would sneak attack on a junior. With Slytherin's character, he did things unscrupulously, and Voldemort probably didn't care at all if he wanted to gain face or something.

"You are very outstanding, and you can remain calm in the face of crises. If you were of the same era as me, I would definitely recruit you. It's a pity, I didn't want to take action against the descendants of Slytherin. Your parents were all

If you want to blame the hero who has done so much for me, it’s because you showed up at the wrong time.”

Due to the previous attack, the professor had stepped up patrols at night. If he kept talking here, he would probably bump into the patrolling professor soon. Voldemort did not intend to mess around with Sephiroth anymore.

"Hiss!"

Weird snake language spat out from Voldemort's mouth, and the motionless snake coiled on the ground began to stretch its body and swam towards Sephiroth.

The cold murderous intent of the basilisk has locked onto Sephiroth, making his hands and feet cold, making him unable to control himself and giving him the illusion of death.

"Wait a minute! Your Highness, I have something else to say. I believe Your Highness will be interested after listening to it."

Fighting, maybe he really couldn't fight, but Sephiroth was confident that he could still run away, but he didn't want to leave like this.

Tom Riddle's diary, the only shrewd guy in the Soul film, if anyone can cause trouble to Dumbledore and the Order of the Phoenix, it's probably him.

If he was destined to be stabbed to death with a basilisk's fangs by a mere Harry Potter who couldn't even use magic, then his death would be too unworthy.

At least you have to play some role before you die.

"Hiss~ I appreciate outstanding juniors very much. Since you have something to say, I will give you some time. However, you should understand that delaying time is meaningless."

Sephiroth didn't look like he was struggling to his death, and Voldemort, who thought he had a chance to win, didn't hesitate to show his tolerance.

The basilisk stopped in front of Sephiroth, less than one meter away from his toes. Such a distance could be broken through in the blink of an eye by the basilisk. Provided that Sephiroth did not resist.

"Your Highness, I would like to make a deal with you. I wonder if your Highness is interested in the deal regarding the Magic Stone?"

These words gave Sephiroth a chance to survive, and Voldemort was obviously moved.

"Philosopher's Stone? Ah, dear child, I have heard of it. This annoying, crying little girl occasionally mentioned it when she complained to me every day. Last year, Harry Potter was protected in the hands of another me.

Got it, right?"

"Speaking of transactions, do you want to say that the thing is in your hands now? You do, don't you?"

No one understands the magical power of the Philosopher's Stone better than Voldemort. Immortality is what he pursues all his life, and for this he paid a price that is unimaginable by ordinary people.

Voldemort wants to be resurrected and return to this beautiful world again, so the Sorcerer's Stone can help him. There is a fanaticism in his eyes. If he can get the Sorcerer's Stone, he will not choose such a troublesome way to resurrect.

Already.

Can you resurrect by absorbing the life of a little witch?

Hahaha, this is simply a big joke. It can only be deceived by a guy like Harry who doesn't even have any knowledge about magic and is unwilling to study hard.

If one could be resurrected by simply absorbing the life of a little wizard, so many dark wizards in history would not simply enter a dark sleep.

When Voldemort was at his peak, when he was preparing to use the Soul Piece as a means of resurrection, wouldn't he kill a few people in advance and store their vitality in the Horcrux?

You know, it is much easier to store the vitality of several people than to use a Horcrux to deceive one person and then absorb the other person's vitality.

"Yes, the Philosopher's Stone is in my hand. But of course not here. When I got the Philosopher's Stone, I wanted to dedicate it to you. I believe you will not die so easily. I have always believed

You will come back. Come back and lead us pure-blood wizards to glory again."

Sephiroth pretended to be a pure-blood wizard who had a special admiration for Voldemort, and his enthusiastic tone made Sephiroth blush when he said it.

Voldemort was very useful. Even after he disappeared for so many years, there were still such fanatical believers in the world. Even Voldemort, who never believed in any Death Eaters, would naturally be a little graceful.

"You are right, of course I will not die so easily. On the road to immortality, I have gone further than anyone else. I will definitely come back again, return to this world, and lead you to glory again."

Whether it is for the Sorcerer's Stone or for his own ambitions, Voldemort will never neglect a person who may be his helper. Especially now that Sephiroth still has the Sorcerer's Stone that he urgently needs in his hands, he very clearly agrees with Sephiroth.

Rose's goal.

"Dedicate the Philosopher's Stone to me, and you will get what you want. I will give you great rights, whether it is money, status, women, or honor, you will get them all. Tell me your name, and if you

If you really bring the Philosopher's Stone, I will grant you the honor of joining the Death Eaters."

Voldemort slowly spit out temptations that would make anyone's heart beat faster.

What is the pursuit of life in this world? Some people spend their whole lives chasing power and money, wielding murderous swords, and lying drunk on the knees of beautiful women; some people yearn for beautiful love, a lover worth cherishing for a lifetime; and those who have these pursue a higher level.

Fame and fortune, leaving a name in history, and lasting fame are the dreams of many people.

Among the benefits given by Voldemort, these things that others pursue for their entire lives are all included.

If Sephiroth hadn't inherited the pursuit of truth from Emperor Kakine, maybe he would have been moved by it, but with his current strength, these are just easy to obtain, so Sephiroth doesn't care.

But in order to stabilize Voldemort, to allow Voldemort to recover better, and to let him fight Dumbledore, Sephiroth had to act like he was deeply attracted.

"Thank you for your generosity, I will definitely give the Sorcerer's Stone to your hand. I am a second-year Slytherin student, Sephiroth Black Sterling. Please forgive me for some time, and I will order someone to give the Sorcerer's Stone to you."

Sent to Hogwarts."

Kneeling down on one knee and stroking his chest in salute, Sephiroth expressed his gratitude to Voldemort for his generosity.

Perhaps such etiquette is not the best way to show respect for the Dark Lord, but now Tom Voldemort does not care about these useless etiquette.

Voldemort, who pursued harsh etiquette, was motivated by his inferiority complex and his own origin, so he let those originally aloof pure-blood family heads kiss his boots to humiliate them to satisfy his twisted self-esteem.

Now Riddle is still a smart and confident guy. Although he has a little inferiority in his heart, he will not show it, let alone treat those who come to him so harshly.

"Very well, I know that the Sterling family has always been my loyal friend. I can wait and give you time to bring the Sorcerer's Stone. But you also see what I am like now, a little witch who has to possess me.

The ghost in me, you should know that I need it very urgently."

Sephiroth's acting skills are very good. Voldemort is not sure whether he has the Sorcerer's Stone. He just wants to take a gamble. It would be best if he can get the Sorcerer's Stone. He will not be stingy with such a small reward. Anyway, even if it is given to the other party

Yes, how dare the other party not give it to him when he needs it?

Voldemort is not worried about being deceived. As he said, he will return to this world sooner or later. If Sephiroth dares to deceive him, even if he can survive now, he will not survive in the future, and it will bring harm to his family.

He believed that Sephiroth, as a smart man, would never do such a bold thing.

"Of course, welcoming back His Highness is a crucial matter. I will not stop delivering the Magic Stone to you as quickly as possible. Give me one day. At this time tomorrow, I will bring the Magic Stone to you.

To you."

The basilisk retreated to Voldemort's side under Voldemort's control. Sephiroth was a little relieved that such a dangerous thing was leaving him, which meant that the other party had begun to believe in him and was willing to let him go.

"Let's go. I will see you and the Philosopher's Stone here at this time tomorrow. Don't let me down. What I can bring to you, I can take away from you."

Sticks and carrots are the simplest means of controlling subordinates, and Voldemort makes them extremely easy to use. First draw a big cake, and then give some warnings. This is how he always treats his subordinates.

"Those people, they are old. Now is your time. When I see you, I feel like I saw Mr. Sterling in his youth. They are all so outstanding. This is the first thing you did for me.

, I don’t want to see failure, you want me to prove your ability.”

Voldemort didn't want to think about why the Sorcerer's Stone came into the hands of the other party, nor did he want to think about why such an important thing was taken out and dedicated to him by a junior. His divided soul made him lose his usual reason and vigilance.

Otherwise, how could he, who was able to develop his own power under Dumbledore's eyes as a student, not even have the slightest sense of vigilance?
