Hogwarts: This Dark Lord is so evil
#33 - Secret in the Attic
In reality, Dumbledore's relationship with his brother wasn't as bad as he made it out to be.
At the very least, Aberforth didn't refuse to let the homeless Levid and Tom stay.
In Levid's opinion, Aberforth was just a softie with a sharp tongue when it came to his brother.
He wouldn't spare his brother's feelings with his words, but he would still do his best to complete the tasks his brother entrusted to him…
Levid and Tom ultimately stayed.
Aberforth arranged a room for them on the second floor.
Because Aberforth had taken Levid in, Toby was now very grateful to Aberforth.
Therefore, he volunteered to help Aberforth manage the bar.
In his opinion, as long as he put in enough work, his temporary master would be able to live a better life.
Aberforth didn't object to this. Having an extra house-elf to help would make things easier for him.
Consequently, his attitude towards Levid and Tom also became more amiable.
… …
"Apart from the attic, you can go anywhere else. If you want something to drink, you can get it from the cellar yourself. Also, there are many other shops in Hogsmeade, so you can go out and have a look if you want to buy something."
Aberforth said, then turned and led the volunteering Toby out of the room.
After Aberforth left, Levid turned around and lay down on his bed. He hadn't rested much from last night until now, and he was feeling a bit tired.
Tom, on the other hand, sat on the other bed and took out a spellbook, focusing intently on reading it.
For him, only by learning non-stop could he become stronger and escape from the hands of this perverted Levid!
"Tom, what do you think is in the attic? Why doesn't Mr. Aberforth let us go up there?"
"This is someone else's home. It's normal for people to have their own privacy. What's so strange about it?"
"Okay… Sigh, I'm so bored, Tom. Why don't we go out for a walk?"
"I'm not going! You go yourself."
Tom immediately refused. Last night, he was studying magic when he was interrupted by the Esoteric Order. Now he had to make up for the lost progress!
Levid pulled the blanket over himself and covered himself well. "Learning also requires a balance between work and rest… At the very least, you have to rest well, otherwise it'll be counterproductive. I'm going to take a nap."
"I don't care about being counterproductive. As long as there's progress, that's all that matters. If you want to sleep, sleep yourself. Don't disturb me," Tom said coldly.
So what if I'm tired? I'm willing!
After a while, Levid sat up from the bed.
"I'm sleeping, but you're studying… Tom, how can you do something so detrimental to unity? You're making me feel very guilty!"
"It's none of your business. I can't sleep. What's wrong with studying? Also, your snoring is disturbing me!"
Levid narrowed his eyes. "You said… you can't sleep? That won't do…"
"You… what are you going to do?" Tom immediately felt uneasy and looked at Levid warily.
"It's nothing. I just want to help you. Insomnia is not good… Stupefy!"
"Levid! You're such a dog…"
Tom fell asleep before he could finish cursing, sleeping very soundly…
"Ahem, you're welcome, Tom."
Levid clapped his hands, and the blanket on Tom's bed automatically covered him.
Sharing a room with Tom, how could Levid fall asleep if Tom wasn't asleep?
After checking Tom's sleep quality, Levid lay down contentedly and pulled his blanket over himself again.
He was exhausted last night, unlike Tom, who slept as long as he fought with the Esoteric Order last night, so he was still so energetic now!
Levid slowly closed his eyes, drowsily, about to fall asleep.
Suddenly, a dull sound came from upstairs.
"Thud!"
Levid didn't care and continued to rest with his eyes closed.
Just as he was about to fall asleep again.
"Thud!"
The dull sound appeared again.
After this sound appeared continuously many times, Levid finally couldn't sleep.
Although the sound wasn't loud, the strange thing was that it could awaken Levid from his sleep every time.
Levid stared at the ceiling suspiciously. Upstairs… wasn't that the attic that Aberforth didn't allow them to go to?
What exactly is up there?
Levid's curiosity was piqued…
Logically speaking, since Aberforth said not to go to the attic, he shouldn't go to the attic, or even ask about it.
However, this sound was too special, and it seemed to be able to awaken wizards from their sleep.
Tom didn't wake up because he was hit by a Stunning Spell… If he was sleeping normally, he would inevitably be awakened by this sound.
So… Levid decided to directly ask Aberforth.
He was troubled by this sound, so asking about this sound was very reasonable.
What if Aberforth was willing to tell him?
Even if he didn't tell him, it would be better than sneaking up there to spy on other people's secrets.
Levid listened for a while and found that the magic power in the sound was getting stronger and stronger before he stood up, took his coat, put it on, and opened the door.
The Hog's Head Inn was similar to the Leaky Cauldron, and it also had guest rooms for accommodation.
It's just that the scale was a bit smaller than the Leaky Cauldron, with only three floors, and fewer guest rooms than the Leaky Cauldron, all concentrated on the second floor.
Levid and Tom were currently occupying one room, and the other rooms had no guests today.
Therefore, after Levid walked out of his room, he could see a somewhat narrow corridor.
One side of the corridor was a wall, and the other side was the doors of the guest rooms.
At both ends of the corridor were the stairs leading downstairs and the stairs leading to the attic.
Levid closed the door, glanced at the stairs leading upstairs, and then prepared to turn around and walk to the stairs leading downstairs next to him.
Just as he turned around, he suddenly felt a cold aura coming from behind him.
Could it be a ghost? Levid guessed in his heart as he turned his head again.
"Whoa…"
When he saw clearly what was in front of him, Levid couldn't help but widen his eyes.
At the stairs leading upstairs opposite him, black, strange mist was constantly flowing down like water…
And those mists were gradually gathering together, slowly filling the entire enclosed corridor!
