Chapter 194 Thank you Riddle!
Riddle was completely confused: the man in front of him claimed to be Slytherin! ! ! And judging from his performance, what he said is very true!
So the little wizard named Les before him might actually be his ancestor?
Considering the benefits of recognizing Rice as his ancestor and the fact that he was no match for him, Riddle made his decision in less than a second.
"My ancestors! I would like to express my highest respect to you. You are a living legend. Your blood flowing in my veins is my eternal pride." Riddle said in a very serious and solemn tone, like Chant generally greets Les.
"I, Tom Marvolo Gaunt, have offended you because of my arrogance and ignorance. Please ask the great ancestors to punish me for the sins I have committed!" Tom's tone was extremely sincere, as if he was really willing to be punished. Rice's punishment was the same.
Les:…
"That's alright." After hearing the surname Gunter, Les's face twisted. "Gaunt is my adopted son, and my blood is not flowing in your body."
"No matter what your punishment is, I only feel grateful in my heart, because I finally-" Riddle's words stopped abruptly.
The impact of Les's words on him was stronger than the impact of a thousand explosive curses. Slytherin personally confirmed it, so what else could he deny? Now the only blood flowing in his veins was the dirty Muggle blood and the blood of thieves and liars.
However, Riddle still found the most suitable way of coping in the shortest time. His face suddenly became sad, and there was a cry in his voice: "Great Slytherin, you may not know that I have been around since I was a child. Growing up in an orphanage..."
Riddle introduced Rice to his childhood in the orphanage in concise words.
The orphanage in the 30s was not a kind place. Affected by the war, the orphanages were overcrowded, but the funds allocated by the government were stretched thin. The children's living conditions were difficult and they lacked enough attention and care. It was a world of the jungle and the strong.
"The ultimate goal of orphans is to be adopted. Whenever a family willing to adopt orphans comes to the orphanage, the children are as excited as pet dogs in a pet store, showing off themselves hard." Li said here. Del looked aggrieved: "I am the same, and I have put in a lot of effort into this, but a small rumor is enough to make it all go to waste."
"He can talk to snakes." Riddle said in a child's voice, pinching his throat. "As long as those damn brats 'accidentally' mention this when chatting with the adopters, they can wipe out all my shining points - —No family would want to take in a child who is suspected of being able to talk to snakes.”
After describing his miserable childhood, Riddle changed the subject: "My first sixteen years of life were gloomy, but after meeting you, I finally had family members again! You, the great Slytherin, He is the father of all Slytherin students! I, Tom Gaunt, finally have a father! Please make me your adopted son, and from now on your orders will be everything in my life - "
When it came to the emotional part, Riddle even shed tears.
Rice interrupted Riddle's performance and reminded him thoughtfully that he had a father, the Muggle named Riddle.
Tom Riddle:…
What he hated most was the Muggle blood in his body that originated from his father.
He wanted to say something more, but Les was no longer willing to waste time on him. After several conversations, Rice saw through Riddle's true nature.
Consistent with his initial conclusion, Riddle is a beast in human skin, and language is a weapon for him.
"I shared the secret of dissociation magic with you before, and now I'm here to teach you another lesson -" Les moved his upper body, twisted his neck, and the joints on his body made several crackling sounds.
"——Then use soul-level magic with caution, especially when you are not sure about your opponent's level."
He loosened his grip on his soul.
Halfway through Rice's words, Riddle felt something bad. What happened next confirmed his hunch: the ground in the sea of flowers was originally dry sand and gravel, but at this moment, a lot of water seeped out from the gaps between the sand and gravel. , the surrounding air began to become humid, and there was a smell of water everywhere.
Riddle subconsciously wiped the dewdrops on his forehead, and then he noticed some fine scales sprouting on his palms.
"What...?!" He looked towards where Les was standing and found that Les's body was also undergoing drastic changes. The scales on his body bulged up and deflated. After repeated several times, green venomous snakes appeared. Emerging from him, his lower body was soon completely covered by these slippery snakes.
These snakes rolled and entangled together, forming a "tail" under Rice's waist. At first glance, it looked like a green snake's tail several meters long.
And his upper body also calmed down, except that all the scales turned silver and his entire face became more like a snake.
Seeing Riddle staring at him, Rice grinned.
"Don't look at things you shouldn't look at..." A hoarse voice sounded in his ears.
Riddle felt as if thousands of needles were being pierced all over his body. He let out a painful scream, then quickly swelled up like a ball, and then exploded into pieces with a "bang".
Most of Riddle's soul turned into specks of light, floating in the air, leaving only a thin and small ray of light floating towards the sky.
Rice didn't stop him and let him disappear into the air.
Riddle had vomited out all the benefits he had extracted from Ginny, and even revealed a lot of his own secrets. It was time to put him back into the diary.
If he continued to hurt him, Les was really afraid that he would accidentally destroy this Horcrux - it would still have a very important role to play, so it couldn't be used out.
I can't find the second Horcrux!
Rice was very grateful to Riddle. He contributed a lot of valuable "material" to him. He provided the best treatment plan for Ravenclaw and Astoria's diseases.
Les changed back to his original appearance, and the ground in the sea of flowers returned to dryness, as if the water just now had never existed.
A drop of water fell on the field, followed by a second drop, a third drop...
The rain falls from the sky, merges with the light spots floating in the air, and falls into the fields, nourishing the dry sand and gravel.
Les waited in the sea of flowers until the rain stopped. At this time, the land in the sea of flowers had once again turned into fertile black land. Those withered dandelions had disappeared, replaced by dense buds that had just broken out of the ground.
"The sea of dandelions will definitely reappear, but it may take a few days." After confirming that Ginny's soul world had recovered, Les also withdrew from her soul world.
