The world is a very strange place, Jon has always known this.

People often meet unexpected people in unexpected places. It is this unexpected and wonderful fate that makes people feel that everything in the world is impermanent.

Just like now.

The two ancient magics of [Poseidon] and [Whispers of the Wind] were combined in the deconstruction method created by the wizard's whims later, forming a magical field, although it did not give Jon any magical power.

It caused too serious a load, but it was difficult for his soul to withstand such a large amount of information.

He needs to simplify, but without an anchor point, his consciousness cannot be completely concentrated in one place and can only wander around. Therefore, it can be said that the appearance of Quirrell is a help to Jon.

In an instant, the ethereal tree converged its roots, and the soaring birds fell back from the sky, leaving only a wisp of wind sound attached to the wave left by Quirrell.

"Professor Quirrell, what are you doing in the Forbidden Forest at this time? And you are bringing...his master with you?"

…

Time goes back half a year.

This is an ordinary spring.

At this time in the Scottish Highlands, the temperature is actually not warm, and the villas in the suburbs feel even more empty.

In the villa, a young man carrying a suitcase and covered in a black robe suddenly emerged from the fireplace. With a shake of his hand, a small snake flew out of his sleeve, and then

Facing the air, it grew several times in length, turning into a giant python several meters long.

Quirrell looked at the python named Nagini, turned and walked away.

If there is no response, it means that the owner has not woken up yet.

This is a good thing. He can still take advantage of this time to solve the problems in this room.

The floo network here has been completely destroyed, but Quirrell doesn't feel bad. After all, it was originally a temporary illegal construction. He has no talent for learning magic, but his talent for evil ways is surprisingly good.

——You shouldn’t say that. In fact, it’s not that he doesn’t have the talent to learn magic. It’s just that compared to his impressive talents in other areas, his magic talent seems a bit dim.

If he had followed his original destiny, he would have devoted himself to research work after graduation, and then perhaps become a well-known wizard in that field.

But Quirrell is weird, and he doesn't like such a reputation.

It is a travesty that a wizard is not famous for his magical powers.

So... maybe he was meant to be a dark wizard.

Quirrell sat in an armchair, looked at the fire in the fireplace, and took a sip of tea.

The flames in the fireplace were dancing in his eyes, just like his current mood.

Everything is different.

He is no longer the poor stutterer he was back then - even though he was not a stutterer in the first place. At that time, he had just started to become interested in and study dark magic. But in Hogwarts, an ordinary professor named Ma

The teacher studying black magic is a very high-profile matter. He cannot borrow any books related to black magic, nor can he talk about such topics, because it has nothing to do with him.

He even began to envy Snape, the man who was once a Death Eater. He felt that he was born in the wrong era. If he lived in Voldemort's era, he would definitely become an excellent dark wizard.

Excellent and great.

Even if you want to leave the dark wizard's camp, you only need to go to Dumbledore and pretend to be a dean of Hogwarts.

What a beautiful thing this is.

Quirrell himself believes that he prefers the feeling of being awed by others than the fame brought by his talent.

As a result, Quirrell began to imagine that he could find Voldemort and even learn black magic from the Dark Lord.

This time on his smuggling trip, he went to Albania.

This was not the first time for him to go to the Albanian forest, because all dark wizards knew that Voldemort was hiding in this forest to recuperate.

He wanted to find Voldemort, but failed to find him. Instead, he had a fight with the vampire family there.

There is no advantage at all.

Quirrell, who refused to admit that he was weaker than a despicable creature like a vampire, began to learn black magic even more crazily. His hard work paid off. This time, he met Voldemort.

He stayed with a python, entrenched in a corner not far from the center of the dark forest.

But it is not easy to stay in such a place. Quirrell himself has experienced it, and he also knows how repulsive the existence here is to outsiders, whether dark wizards or dark creatures, their positions are exactly the same on this point.

The Dark Forest is a dark paradise, but the darkness here obviously doesn't like the darkness outside so much.

And the fact that Voldemort, who had lost his body and was much less powerful than before, could stand here clearly shows that he has very high abilities.

There is no such thing as good and evil in the world. This man who was guarded by a python was once called the Dark Lord by the world, and he only used bloody methods when fighting for status.

But is waste really worth living in this world?

Quirrell didn't want to know the answer to this question, and it had nothing to do with him. He didn't care about the existence of waste. Ravenclaw Academy was full of smart people, and no one was a waste.

As for the truly powerful wizard, who would care about the life and death of the trash?

It must be said that Voldemort has a very eloquent mouth, and every word he speaks hits the depths of Quirrell's heart. Within a few days, Quirrell has completely become a follower of Voldemort.

But believers will also get tired, especially when Voldemort can only order him alone, Quirrell's work will be even more tiring.

Fortunately, the python's hibernation period will soon be over, and he will soon have a helper.

Quirrell drank the tea in the cup in one gulp and began to tidy up the room with his wand.

Since finding Voldemort, Quirrell has begun to accept Voldemort's teachings and carry out his orders. Now he wants to start looking for the elixir of life. There is no way to bring the snake with him, so he can only keep the snake in his home.

Fortunately, this place is just a temporary residence in Chilaw, and it is relatively remote, so there is no need to worry about people discovering anything strange here.

But there seems to be no need to clean it up. This snake will definitely make a mess here, Quirrell thought. At this moment, the boa constrictor warming himself by the fireplace opened its mouth and spit out a small crystal ball.

Voldemort woke up.
