Starting Over at Hogwarts

It was not too easy for Wesson to secretly put this Horcrux notebook on Gilderoy Lockhart's desk.

Of course.

Wesson chose the simplest way.

He planned to send Professor Gerald Lockhart a letter from his book friend.

As a popular writer in the wizarding world, Gilderoy Lockhart has been receiving letters from book friends from all over the world. He is also a person who enjoys this kind of life and will read every letter very carefully. I will also definitely reply to my book friends.

How strange…

Gilderoy Lockhart has never received any strange gifts, and his book friends have never sent him strange things...

This is what Gilderoy Lockhart lacks in his life.

Wesson planned to help his Defense Against the Dark Arts professor make up a lesson.

So he wrapped the notebook Horcrux in a large envelope and delivered it directly to Gilderoy Lockhart's desk when he found an opportunity.

Of course.

The large envelope soon caught Gilderoy Lockhart's attention.

However, when Gilderoy Lockhart saw this large envelope, the writer opened it almost without thinking. He wanted to see how many admiring words his loyal fan had written for him!

It's a pity.

There is only one notebook inside.

When Gerald Lockhart opened the empty notebook in surprise, a piece of paper fell out of the notebook. He picked up the piece of paper and took a look.

[Mr. Gilderoy Lockhart, I have always liked your works. I hope this notebook can add a new color to your life.

It was once a famous magician's notebook, and it may contain some unknown secrets. I believe that only you who travel the world can discover the secrets. 】

"interesting…"

A smile appeared on Gilderoy Lockhart's lips.

For a writer who likes to hunt for strange stories, he needs some writing materials. Maybe this notebook can really bring him a different new story?

Preferably the kind that sells...

No.

As long as the stories he writes are sure to sell well!

Gilderoy Lockhart looked through the notebook in his hand, rubbed the cover of the notebook with his fingers, and frowned slightly. He did not notice anything wrong.

It seems…

Just a somewhat quaint notebook, right?

There are no exquisite patterns on it, and there is not even any ancient family imprint on it. Instead, it looks more like a common notebook used by students to record classroom knowledge...

It's like you bought it casually in Diagon Alley, even a little shabby...

When Gilderoy Lockhart opened the notebook, he felt vaguely that he had been teased, because there was nothing written in it!

An empty notebook?

Gilderoy Lockhart's mouth twitched, and he could only shake his head helplessly, picked up the quill on the table, and carefully wrote a line of messages in his notebook.

Gilderoy Lockhart did not intend to keep this inconspicuous-looking notebook. After writing the message, he planned to send the notebook back to the person who wrote the letter. I believe it must be a surprise.

However, when Gilderoy Lockhart wrote the first line of comments, the ink on the notebook slowly seeped into it and disappeared without a trace. This scene immediately aroused his interest!

This is indeed an unusual notebook!

Gilderoy Lockhart stared closely at the empty white paper, slowly stretched out his quill and tried to write something again, when a line of words suddenly appeared in the notebook. .

【Do you want to become a greater writer? 】

"..."

The smile on Gilderoy Lockhart's lips gradually solidified on his face.

After the famous wizarding writer was silent for a moment, he smiled again and started writing in his notebook, seemingly in response to this note: [Sorry, I should be the best-selling author in the world now. 】

[What about the Muggle world? 】

A touching line of words was written in the notebook, and a line of words slowly reappeared: [Mr. Gilderoy Lockhart, I can see that your smile and your works will become a symbol of peaceful coexistence between wizards and Muggles. bridge…】

The seventeen-year-old Tom Riddle hidden in this notebook is simply a little devil with real wisdom and cruelty online. As if he was a student, he slowly seduces people's hearts with the help of the information he knows.

Gilderoy Lockhart was a little overwhelmed by this line of writing.

To be honest…

No one has ever said this...

Gilderoy Lockhart didn't even dare to think so...

After all, anyone who leaks the existence of the wizarding world and wizards will be wanted and arrested by the Ministry of Magic. In serious cases, they may even be sent to Azkaban...

but…

Have to admit…

Gilderoy Lockhart was a little moved.

In fact, he has always wanted to have more people pay attention to his works and have more people admire him, even if he knows that he is just a thief who steals other people's lives...

【I don’t dare to do this...】

Gilderoy Lockhart squinted his eyes and slowly began to write: [What do you think should be done to get the Ministry of Magic to allow the Muggle world to sell my book? 】

[There is no good way to do this...]

A line of words slowly appeared on the notebook, and the desire in Gilderoy Lockhart's eyes was immediately extinguished.

next moment.

A line of words quickly appeared on the notebook again.

[Perhaps you can try some useful tricks]

The remnant soul of Voldemort is hidden in the notebook, unscrupulously luring a fool into his conspiracy: [Find a way to place your book directly in the Muggle world, make one thing an established fact, your book will definitely It will become Muggles' favorite book. When Muggles discover the existence of wizards, and when Muggles and wizards conflict, use your identity and the influence of a best-selling author to eliminate the conflict between wizards and Muggles, so that everyone can Live together harmoniously...]

"..."

This risk is a bit big!

Gilderoy Lockhart once thought about the first step. He thought about his book appearing in the Muggle world, but he never dared to think about what happened next...

If you think about it now...

If his book really sells well in the Muggle world...

If he had as much influence in the Muggle world as he did in the wizarding world, would it really be possible to bridge the divide between the two?

Gilderoy Lockhart felt a little excited.

Just being able to become a best-selling author admired by both worlds and gain countless readers of his books is enough to make him itchy!

[If you can do it, what you get will not be a fake and useless thing like the Merlin Medal, you will become the next Merlin...]

The words of the seventeen-year-old Tom Riddle in the notebook are always so tempting. This is the age when he is best at deceiving people.
