Chapter 153 Voldemort: The World only Needs One
Chapter 153 Voldemort: There is only one Voldemort in this world
"Only the ring!"
Cyrus' voice reached Voldemort's ears.
The former Dark Lord couldn't help but look at Cyrus again. In the darkness, his captivating golden eyes were very dazzling, and he looked like a god!
Voldemort felt mixed emotions.
This was his past, but it was also his non-existent future!
He had to admit that Cyrus was better than before. He was resurrected only last year. According to his physical age, he was not even old enough to graduate, but his power was immeasurable!
In time, it would not be impossible for Cyrus to surpass his peak.
But that would also take time.
At this moment, Cyrus was still far behind Voldemort at his strongest.
You have to know that Voldemort at his peak was an existence that even Dumbledore, who had the Elder Wand, could not kill!
As one of the Deathly Hallows, the Elder Wand was invincible to anyone who possessed it. In history, almost no one who holds the Elder Wand has ever lost to another in a head-on confrontation. Most of the changes in the Elder Wand were due to assassinations and sneak attacks...
Dumbledore had such a powerful force, but he still couldn't completely defeat Voldemort. Even though Voldemort had disappeared for so many years, people still hadn't forgotten his terror.
Therefore, Voldemort thought that it didn't matter if he gave up the magic book first. As long as he could be resurrected, everything would return to his hands sooner or later.
And this day is not far away!
The shadow of a pale yellow mouse was reflected in Voldemort's eyes.
Due to the fear of death, one of his disloyal servants took the initiative to find him. Now, he only needs to wait for the servant to offer Harry Potter's blood. At that time, he will return to this world again in a complete posture!
No——
He looked down at the ugly body he was occupying at the moment.
At that time, he will show a stronger posture!
"Okay, just as you said!"
Cyrus returned to Hogwarts with the books left by the four guardians.
At this time, the Quidditch game seemed to be over. The little wizards began to return from the playground in scattered groups, and the sky was raining coldly.
Without the obstruction of the Dementors, Harry seemed to have won the game this time. Although Cedric was also an excellent seeker, his broom was still a little different from Harry's.
There were so many people and eyes, it was difficult for Cyrus to return to the Room of Requirement, so he simply turned into an eagle and left Hogwarts.
Now he needs to find a place to stay. Cyrus had disguised himself as Dawlish for a long time before, but after the Battle of Gringotts, he returned Dawlish's body and modified a little of his memory.
So it's not appropriate to go to Dawlish's house now.
But there is another place he can go.
——
Malfoy Manor.
This is a mansion with a long history, and it is also very classical and luxurious.
Lucius's days can be said to be very busy during this period. After Cyrus wrote a letter asking him to take some actions against Gringotts, he was very busy. But the effect was also very significant. Under the influence of public opinion, Gringotts's reputation was greatly reduced.
He immediately seized the opportunity to set up a new wizard bank. Of course, the bank counter is very small now.
Gringotts's reputation has been reduced on the one hand, and Malfoy's reputation is not much better. Fortunately, although the Malfoy family has a mediocre reputation, it still has some influence. In order to curry favor with him, many half-bloods and pure-blood wizards from families other than the 28 sacred pure bloods handed over their gold galleons to Malfoy.
It's hard to say how much they gave, but at least they announced to the outside world that they had opened a vault here in Malfoy, and the main point was an attitude!
In addition, Malfoy also paid a large sum of money out of his own pocket to Fudge, in order to let the current Minister of Magic express his attitude and promote him.
In this way, the reputation of Malfoy Bank has become more and more big.
He changed the name of the bank to "Wizard Bank" and vigorously declared in the Daily Prophet that he would replace or even take over Gringotts. This naturally caused dissatisfaction among the goblins. But after the Battle of Gringotts, goblins were actually no longer a force to be reckoned with.
Bodrick became the second sinner in the history of goblins. Lanlock only took away the goblin armor, while Bodrick almost wiped out all the goblins capable of fighting in the UK. Without the ability to resist, there is naturally no right to speak.
Even if the goblins protested at the entrance of the Ministry of Magic, no one would pay attention to them.
At this time, Lucius added another dose of explosive material.
He announced that opening a vault in the Wizard Bank not only does not cost money, but also has interest when depositing a certain amount of money. This time the wizards were furious.
You must know that Gringotts has never mentioned the matter of interest. It is more uncomfortable to expect these guys to take a penny out of their pockets than to kill them. Gringotts not only does not pay interest, but also charges a part of the custody fee every year.
Many wizards were getting impatient, and even the Weasleys, who had always been at odds with Malfoy, were tempted.
But even if they emptied their family's savings, they wouldn't be able to find many Galleons.
Even Weasley was tempted, not to mention others, so more and more people came to take money from Gringotts. Seeing the wealth constantly decreasing, even if the wealth did not belong to them in the first place, the goblins found it unbearable.
So they "had an idea" to turn away those wizards who took money, which made Gringotts' reputation fall to the bottom.
When Lucius heard that the goblins were so ridiculous, he almost laughed out loud.
He laughed so hard that he could not close his mouth, and he almost saw the bright future of the Malfoy family standing at the top of the wealth of the British wizarding world.
At this time, a creepy voice suddenly sounded from behind him.
"You look in a good mood, Lucius?"
Lucius shuddered violently as if a large basin of cold water was poured on his head.
He turned his head stiffly and saw Cyrus leaning against the doorpost and looking at him with a smile.
"Master..." His lips turned pale all of a sudden.
Lucius realized that he might be too complacent. Even if his wizard bank was flourishing, the real owner of the bank would not be him, but the young man who looked like a student.
But in fact, Cyrus did not value the bank itself. What was important was to grasp the lifeline of the wizard economy. It did not matter who the bank belonged to. He just wanted to control the person who owned the bank.
Cyrus walked to Lucius comfortably. Lucius Malfoy seemed to be standing naked in the snow, and his whole body was frozen.
"Don't be nervous, Lucius, I just want to stay here for a few days. You should not be unwelcome, right?"
"It's my honor, sir..."
Faced with Cyrus' request, Lucius naturally did not dare to say any words of refusal.
In fact, he was even used to it.
In the past, Voldemort liked to hold meetings at Lucius's house.
In the magic world, Voldemort was like a floating duckweed with no place to stay.
Although the Riddle family's mansion is luxurious, Voldemort feels that they are not good enough because of their Muggle identity. Although the Gaunt family has noble blood, their family is extremely poor - the old house is even worse than a pigsty in the countryside.
Lucius felt a little strange that Cyrus came here so late after escaping from prison, but he never dared to ask too much about the "Dark Lord". Now, he only needs to do what Cyrus tells him to do, and then hope that the "Dark Lord" will not be as unpredictable as before.
And, protect his family...
Just as Lucius was thinking this, a woman in black clothes and pale skin walked in.
Narcissa's yellow hair was tied up behind her head. She was always a little melancholy and serious, but she couldn't help but smile a little today. The establishment of the wizard bank is crucial to the future development of the Malfoy family. Now Draco is just a pure-blooded young master of the Malfoy family, but in the future, his identity will become more noble!
"Lucius, today--"
However, as soon as she stepped into the door frame of the living room, her face, which was originally slightly smiling, froze, and her words were stuck in her throat, and fear replaced joy.
"Master..."
"Hello, Narcissa." Cyrus greeted her cordially.
Narcissa was not a Death Eater in the strict sense, at least she was not qualified to leave the Death Eater mark, but since she was Lucius's wife, she was naturally very clear about Voldemort's cruelty and power.
Seeing Cyrus' figure at this moment, she immediately panicked.
Although Cyrus at this moment looked almost completely different from Voldemort in her memory, from the appearance alone, Cyrus did not look scary at all, but the name "Voldemort" alone was enough to bring fear.
Cyrus had no desire to explore the mental journey of Narcissa and Lucius. He just wanted to find a safe place to digest the soul fragment of Voldemort, and then study the book he got in the Pavilion of Knowledge.
But unlike what he thought, the book did not seem to record any ancient magic.
Cyrus frowned.
"Will Voldemort lie to me?"
--
"He actually dared to lie to me!"
Voldemort pinched the ring in his hand into a small piece of iron sheet, and in a rage, he twisted the head of a goblin off!
The ring was indeed the same ring as before, but the soul inside the ring had disappeared without a trace!
Voldemort, who had never heard of the Deathly Hallows, did not care about the disappearance of the prismatic black stone, but the destruction of the Horcrux still sounded the alarm for him.
"Will he destroy all my Horcruxes? Just to eliminate me?" Voldemort's eyes flickered.
Indeed, there is only one Voldemort in this world!
"But the only one left is me!"
There will be updates later, but I don't have much saved so I can only code now. Maybe I have to wait a little longer, I'm going to have a meal first
