Chapter 291 When the boss calls you brothers

When Wormtail raised his head again, he seemed to see a terrifying smile on the face of a snake.

Voldemort's hoarse voice said again:

"I, the only descendant of the great Salazar Slytherin, leader of the Death Eaters, Dark Lord, Voldemort, You-Know-Who, the Devil Who Must Not Be Named, undead, the most dangerous dark wizard in history... …

In this world, no one can kill me except myself. Even Albus Dumbledore, the patron saint of fools, could only avoid the spotlight temporarily during my heyday.

Although, ten years ago, with the help of my dear old friend Mr. Peter Pellum, I..."

Hearing this, Wormtail thought that Voldemort was going to settle an old score with him, so he hurriedly knelt on the ground again, his body trembling, and he said hurriedly:

"Master, Master, I really didn't know Lily would hurt you. You are the great Dark Lord... I am your most loyal..."

Voldemort took advantage of Wormtail's lower body and quickly possessed another snake. Because he was so excited just now, the snake began to wilt.

"Oh, dear friend, I don't blame you. It's because I was careless and ignored the sacrificial magic released by Lily Potter before she died, so that the death curse would bounce on myself. No one can resist the great Lord Voldemort. A curse, even on himself.

Because of my carelessness, my body was stripped away, leaving only shadow and steam. I was worse than a ghost, worse than the humblest ghost.

But, I am still living strong!

As my goal is to conquer death, I am further along the road to immortality than anyone else.

You know my goal - to conquer death.

Now that I've been put to the test, it looks like at least one or two of my experiments worked...

Because I didn't die, even though the spell was fatal. However, I am as powerless as the weakest creature, unable to help myself...

I have no body, and every spell that can help me requires the use of a wand..."

Wormtail's trembling voice said again:

"Master, my great master, I...I am willing..."

Voldemort's hoarse voice contained a hint of smile and said softly:

"No, I don't need to. You are my friend. That will hurt you. How can I let my friend get hurt because of me."

Wormtail's voice began to sob.

Voldemort said slowly:

"I remember those days and nights when I couldn't sleep, and I just forced myself to live again and again, second by second...

I am hiding in this dark forest, waiting for my loyal Death Eaters, they will definitely find a way to find me.

There will definitely be someone who will use magic that I cannot cast on my own to give me a physical body...

But I waited in vain..."

Wormtail shuddered and sobbed:

"Master, great master, you did not wait in vain, I am here. I escaped from Hogwarts. I heard about you and came to you specifically..."

Voldemort was silent, looking at the former servant in front of him, and said with some surprise in his voice:

"You escaped from Hogwarts? Have you heard about me?"

Wormtail quickly told how he had pretended to be dead to avoid trial all these years, how he had been lurking in the wizarding world to find news about the Dark Lord, and how he had been lurking around Harry Potter, preparing to capture him and sacrifice him to the Dark Lord.

Then how did he escape from being chased and intercepted by a group of Aurors? After various inquiries, he finally determined the location of the Dark Lord and came to serve him.

Then it was highlighted that the Defense Against the Dark Arts professor named Douglas Holmes had been successfully re-elected for a second term when he escaped.

A sneer appeared on Voldemort's snake face:

"Am I already weak to this point, or is this person really capable? I used my identity as a descendant of Slytherin to cast a curse in that position. After so many years, he is still the first person to lift the curse. ,interesting……"

Looking at Wormtail, who was still trembling and crawling, a trace of disgust flashed in Voldemort's eyes, and he continued to fool around:

"Dear old friend, you did a great job. To be able to escape from a bunch of Aurors and find this place is already much better than what I was back then."

Hearing this, Wormtail almost buried his head in the soil in front of him.

Voldemort quietly changed his body again and said with emotion:

"At that time, I could only wander around because I still had a little magic left that could help me possess others. But I didn't dare go to crowded places because Aurors were always looking for me everywhere.

Poor and humble me, I live tenaciously and possess animals. As you can see, snakes are my favorite to use, but are not much better than ghosts on them, as the body is not suitable for magic, and because my possession shortens their lifespan, making them even worse if I use it Die faster...

A full ten years have passed, from the forests of Landes in France to the forests of Bohemia in the Czech Republic; from the forests of Galloway in Scotland to the Belovezh Forest in Belarus... I finally met the long-awaited man in the forests of Albania. Old friend Nagini.

With the help of Nagini, I cultivated a group of snakes that could possess me at any time, allowing me to survive...

Then I met a young, foolish, gullible wizard and found my home... yes, as you know, that man was Quirinus Quirrell. Unfortunately, my plan failed. I was as weak as before and continued to return to this hiding place.

My friend, you have no idea how important your presence is, and I do not want to boast that I am not at all worried about restoring my magic power.

Yes, in my darkest times...you came here...my old friend, you were the only one who still cared about me and you gave me hope. "

I don’t want to deceive you. I also met several wizards before and captured them with the help of Nagini. Unfortunately, they were all fugitives wanted by Aurors. If I possessed them, I would still Being chased by Aurors.

I used some tricks to make them disappear from this world, hoping that the news would spread and attract more wizards for me to choose from.

Just like those years when I attacked the Muggles who came in by mistake and attracted that stupid wizard.

But I really didn’t expect that when I met my old friend... Can you help me, my old friend, help me who is so weak that I can’t even pick up the wand..."

"Hiss... Wormtail, are you about to fall asleep? Do you need me to help you sleep forever?"

A shrill, hoarse voice sounded in the empty and silent cave, interrupting Wormtail's thoughts.
