Hogwarts: This Dark Lord is so evil

Lee Jordan and Tom walked silently on the muddy streets of London.

Tom, still in shock, pressed down on his newsboy cap, somewhat surprised that the oversized hat hadn't been lost down a drain.

Lee Jordan, on the other hand, tightened the money bag on his body, secretly relieved that the gold hadn't been lost.

"That snake… said she used to be a human woman, drawn to me by my Parseltongue… But how is that possible?" Tom said, breaking the silence after recovering somewhat.

"Tom, you have to admit, there really are many magical things in this world… What we don't know doesn't mean it doesn't exist," Lee Jordan said calmly.

In fact, Lee Jordan knew Nagini's story very well, but he couldn't tell Tom because he couldn't explain why he knew these things.

Nagini was originally a kind and gentle woman, but unfortunately, she was a Maledictus.

Due to the blood curse inherited from the maternal line of her family, she was born with a curse that allowed her to switch back and forth between human and snake forms.

But as she grew older, this curse would eventually cause her to completely lose her humanity, forget all her memories as a human, and then completely turn into a beast…

Of course, the current Nagini is not the cruel serpent that Voldemort would turn into a Horcrux decades later.

Lee Jordan speculated that the current Nagini should be on the verge of completely succumbing to the beast within, only able to regain consciousness occasionally.

And just now, Nagini's true consciousness had awakened in time during the crisis.

Tom was silent for a while before saying, "I have a feeling I'll meet her again."

Lee Jordan looked at Tom, somewhat surprised to see a flash of pity in his eyes.

"Maybe… But we need to get stronger quickly, or else, next time we meet, you might be swallowed whole by her."

As Lee Jordan spoke, he jumped onto a tram that had just stopped, and Tom quickly followed.

Because they didn't have to walk, the two quickly arrived at their destination this time.

Lee Jordan looked at the pedestrians ahead, who were taking a strange route to avoid a section of the road.

And next to that section of the road, hung a tattered sign—the Leaky Cauldron.

Lee Jordan and Tom exchanged a glance, then quickly walked over.

Tom nervously patted the dust off his clothes. After falling into the sewer just now, they were both a bit disheveled.

Most importantly, they had a faint, almost imperceptible, odor on them…

Just as Tom began to frown, planning to change his clothes somewhere,

he suddenly felt a slight chill all over his body, as if a gentle breeze had blown past him.

Then, he was surprised to find that all the dust and odor on his body had disappeared!

Tom immediately turned to look at Lee Jordan.

At this time, Lee Jordan was looking at his own clothes, and then silently recited a spell in his mind.

"Scourgify!"

The next second, he was also spotless from head to toe.

"Lee, I've actually wanted to say this for a long time, did you already know you were a…" Tom looked around, and only after realizing that no one was paying attention to him did he continue in a low voice, "Did you already know you were a wizard, and also, did you somehow obtain a method to use magic?"

"No, I figured it all out through experimentation… Don't you understand now that the power of magic is based on belief?"

Tom's suspicion was not unexpected by Lee Jordan, but of course, he wouldn't admit it.

In fact, even if he hadn't obtained the spellbook, he could indeed experiment and figure out many magical effects…

"The power of magic is based on belief…" Tom repeated this sentence, thoughtfully.

"Alright, we should go in. The new world is beckoning us," Lee Jordan patted Tom on the shoulder, and then took the lead in walking into the Leaky Cauldron.

The interior of the Leaky Cauldron was not what Lee Jordan expected; it was truly both dirty and narrow.

However, despite this, the bar was still bustling with activity, except that these patrons seemed to be of mixed backgrounds…

Lee Jordan came to the bar, where a somewhat balding middle-aged man was wiping a glass.

"Hello, excuse me, where do we enter Diagon Alley from?" Lee Jordan asked.

The middle-aged man put down the glass and looked Lee Jordan and Tom up and down.

"Oh… you're this year's Hogwarts students, aren't you? Haven't been to Diagon Alley before? Alright, please follow me."

Tom and Lee Jordan exchanged a glance and followed him.

Along the way, people kept greeting the man.

"Tom, is there anything to eat? Get me a toasted flatbread! I'm so hungry I could eat a cow! Oh, and get me a glass of sherry!"

"Please wait a moment, Jom, I still have to take these two new students to Diagon Alley."

"Oh? Are they Muggle-born little wizards?"

"Yes, yes…"

As he spoke, Tom, the owner of the Leaky Cauldron, led Lee Jordan and the other Tom to a small patio behind the bar.

Tom suppressed his discomfort and asked the owner, who was also named Tom, "What does Muggle-born mean?"

"Hmm? It seems the professor who explained the situation to you didn't make it clear. The so-called Muggles are the general term for people who don't understand magic. Muggle-born means a wizard who appeared in a Muggle family. Hmm… aren't you? If you were from a wizarding family, you couldn't possibly have never been to Diagon Alley," the owner, Tom, looked at the two boys in front of him with some suspicion.

"No, we are indeed Muggle-born, that's right. We're just curious about the meaning of the word Muggle," Lee Jordan explained.

"Oh, I see…" The owner, Tom, didn't take it to heart, turned his head, took out his wand, and pointed to the wall with a trash can in front of it, saying, "Start from this trash can and count three bricks up, then count two bricks across, and then tap…"

"Tap!"

The first issue is 首发 on 一一首发一内一容一一在一一一一!

The next second, the brick wall quickly moved, the bricks jumping aside one by one, and then, an entrance appeared in front of the three.

Lee Jordan took the lead and walked into the entrance, and a long street paved with cobblestones appeared before his eyes.

What caught his eye first were the various strange shops on both sides of the street, as well as the bustling crowd on the street.

The entire Diagon Alley seemed extremely lively.

"Alright, you know how to enter and exit Diagon Alley now, and I should go back now."

"Oh, by the way, don't leave the main street. Otherwise, if you accidentally walk into Knockturn Alley, it could be dangerous," the owner, Tom, warned before leaving.

After the entrance behind him returned to a wall, Tom suddenly said, "I think I'm definitely not Muggle-born. I think my father must be a wizard, and my mother isn't, otherwise, she definitely wouldn't have died so easily in front of the orphanage…"

"No matter what, we're from the orphanage now… That counts as Muggle-born," Lee Jordan said.

"Alright… But I'll find out information about my father sooner or later!" Tom took out the shopping list, not mentioning his father again. "What should we buy first?"

"Of course, we should buy a wand first. But… we need to exchange some money first," Lee Jordan said, patting his backpack.

…

A few kilometers away from the Leaky Cauldron, in front of a small detached house, the police were surrounding the area.

The two-story detached house was now somewhat tilted, and seemed likely to collapse at any moment.

"Sergeant, we found the traffickers who were tied up, but…"

"But what?" the sergeant with a mustache asked.

"Well… the floor in the house collapsed for some reason, and several of the traffickers fell down, got injured, and… they all seem to be scared out of their minds!"

"This is really strange…"

In the crowd, a tall, thin man suddenly walked out, and the police next to him seemed not to see him, letting him walk into the building that was about to collapse.

Dumbledore frowned as he looked at the tragic scene inside the building, his brow furrowing slightly.

He closed his eyes and carefully sensed it, because he found the magical traces at the scene a bit familiar…

Suddenly, Dumbledore opened his eyes, a look of doubt on his face, "It's them? How could it be them?"

A hint of worry flashed across Dumbledore's face, and then he followed the big hole and jumped into the sewer.

Dumbledore ignored the stench of the sewer, and after carefully investigating it, he suddenly bent down and groped in a corner of the sewer.

When he straightened up, he had a dark green scale in his hand…

"This is… Nagini?! Has she finally completely succumbed? Wait! If they encountered Nagini…"

The worried look on Dumbledore's face was even greater, and he put the scale into his pocket.

"Pop!"

Dumbledore's figure disappeared into the sewer.

Leave some book reviews. I don't know how well I'm writing…
