This endless world

Even after Voldemort fell, Dumbledore did not relax his vigilance.

No one understands better than Dumbledore the achievements of his favorite disciple in the dark arts. When he was still in school at Hogwarts, he could split multiple Horcruxes. After decades, he got the help of his future daughter and the mysterious ancient magic he might learn... all of this has made him His magical attainments reached a level that even Dumbledore could not imagine.

Although Dumbledore had won the battle just now, it was Delphi disguised as Voldemort, not Voldemort himself. Now the real master has appeared, even if the cage Dumbledore set for himself and the newly developed Magic has 100% confidence, but if...

"...I have to admit, Professor, this magic is indeed very powerful."

Voldemort's voice rang again. Under Dumbledore's shocked gaze, Delphi's limp body moved slightly, then cracked open, and an intact Delphi crawled out.

"If it weren't for my newly developed magic, you would have killed me just now."

Like a snake peeling off its skin, Voldemort slightly moved his new hands and feet, and looked at Dumbledore mockingly with his slender green vertical pupils: "So Professor, for this paper I handed in, what do you think?" Can you give me an 'O' rating?"

Ignoring Voldemort's words, Dumbledore stared at Voldemort's newborn body and immediately noticed something was wrong: "Your body...has become smaller?"

As soon as Dumbledore said these words, he denied his guess: "No, he has become younger!"

"It's just some side effects. After all, snakes always need to experience some pain when shedding their skin."

Scratching the new skin with green-white fingers, Voldemort said nonchalantly: "This is new life, evolution, and my new attempt on the road to immortality... not only the immortality of the soul, but also the evolution of the body. , so far, the effect is good.”

"But you cannot resurrect from the dead without limit." Dumbledore's eyes were fixed on Voldemort's eyes: "This does not comply with the first item of Hohenheim's basic law...equivalent exchange, you cannot break this rule !”

"Indeed, this method of resurrection will not only cause my life span to be irreversibly shortened, but also cause me to consume a lot of magic power." Voldemort said casually: "But at the moment I am just a soul fragment, and my resurrection Compared with magic, the new magic you used to kill me must be very expensive, right?"

"Are you sure you want to use that extremely consuming magic to kill me a few more times, my good professor?"

"You are still a soul fragment now?" After a brief shock, Dumbledore narrowed his eyes slightly, trying to see through the truth in Voldemort's words.

"Of course, professor, do you really think you can defeat my daughter in such a short period of time?"

Voldemort opened his arms and stretched his body. Even though he had just been killed once, he was still in a cage, but the Dark Lord's tone was as relaxed as if he was in the Slytherin lounge: "Professor, you know Yes, you don’t need to ask me where my body is, and I won’t answer you, so let’s talk about something else...such as what happened that night.”

"That night, I was confident but arrogant and did not completely believe what my daughter said. Although I killed Harry Potter first, I did not expect that the ancient magic of love is not only a mother to a child, but also a mother to a child. The reverse can also work.”

"This is the magic of love." Hearing Voldemort take the initiative to talk about the tragedy in Godric's Hollow, Dumbledore's tone couldn't help but become extremely cold: "And you have once again paid the price for your arrogance. .”

"Indeed, this is my old problem. I am so confident that I am arrogant... In the past, I always regarded other people as stupid people, but I ignored that even an extremely stupid idiot has its own corresponding uses. .”

Regarding Dumbledore's words, Voldemort, instead of getting angry, nodded slightly in agreement: "Fortunately, luck is still on my side. A child's love for his mother is not as great as a mother's love for her child... The killing curse did not fully rebound. Instead, there was a big explosion, which destroyed the Potter family and destroyed my body."

"Having cut off the bloodline of the Potter family, I once again had to abandon my body just like 'me' on the world line in Delphi... But fortunately, I still have my most loyal daughter, so I won’t be reduced to a situation where I’m worse than a wandering soul.”

"Yes, Father! This is what I live for!"

This time, what came out of Delphi's body was her original voice. Two different voices came out from the same mouth, which sounded a bit weird.

"Ah, yes, thank you, my most devoted daughter."

Voldemort said lazily: "My soul was blown away at that moment and attached to Delphi's body. Fortunately, she is my direct bloodline and her own magic power is strong enough to withstand the possession of my soul. , so that I would not possess the back of some idiot wizard's head... Of course, in order to prevent my lovely daughter's lifespan from being shortened, for a long time, I adopted the method of sleeping so that my soul Recover as soon as possible.”

"It sounds like what was attached to your daughter at that time was your body, not the fragments of your soul now." Dumbledore got the key information from Voldemort's words. He continued indifferently: "Then what happens next? What happened that caused you to split your soul again?”

"Because she is my daughter, Voldemort will never forget those who helped him."

Voldemort said easily: "She deserves me to split my soul again. Even though I already know that splitting my soul cannot actually bring me true immortality, in order to complete another plan of mine, temporary sacrifice is necessary... …As it happens, just about a month ago, a dog with a keen sense of smell actually discovered the fact that Delphi was disguised as me, and from that moment on, I knew that I couldn’t put all my eggs in one basket.”

"I had to do a lot of preparation, a lot of follow-up planning...yeah, a lot."

With that said, Voldemort took a half-step back slightly, placed his hands behind his back, leaving half of his face in shadow: "All plans must be made in advance, especially Severus Snape's side, even more so. It is the top priority, and failure is never allowed...and to ensure nothing goes wrong, I even went to No. 4 Privet Drive in person."

"No. 4 Privet Drive?"

Dumbledore recalled this slightly familiar place name in his mind, and then he was surprised to find that this was originally the address where Harry Potter grew up to be an adult, his aunt and uncle's home.

A bad premonition arose in Dumbledore's mind: "...What are you doing there?"

"To make sure nothing goes wrong."

Voldemort nodded, as if all this was a matter of course: "In order to ensure that Severus Snape will not betray me again in the past that has happened and in the future that has not yet happened, I must fight to catch him." His only weakness was to give me something decisive to ensure his absolute loyalty to me..."

"So, I personally killed the Muggle sister of Lily Evans, and then used magic to shape the body into her likeness, and used it to get Severus to take the bait... and he finally completed my mission. ."

As he said this, a thin cruel smile formed on the corner of Voldemort's mouth. Even Delphi's beautiful face could not hide the deep malice hidden behind it.

Dumbledore gasped. Even he couldn't imagine that Voldemort would do such a crazy thing. If you want to deceive Snape, the world-famous potions master, and deceive him that Lily Evans is not dead, you can only find a way to find her blood relatives... And think of the person who met Lily Evans when she was enrolled in school. , because Penny Evans, who admired magic and even sent him a letter to inquire about it, Dumbledore felt a pain in his heart.

"Tom, what do you think of human life?"

Dumbledore snapped angrily: "You are sacrificing an innocent life just to complete a scam!"

"Not one, but three. I also killed that stupid woman's husband and son... After all, a child of seven or eight years old can grow so fat. It easily reminds me of those who didn't have enough to eat in the orphanage. days." Voldemort looked a little bored and said: "Professor, you know me. Ever since I was in the orphanage, I have hated those bad boys who bully others just because they are strong... Fortunately, in Once I realized I was 'different', I became the biggest bad boy."

After saying these words, Voldemort blew the dust off his fingers: "Well, the time to reminisce has been stretched long enough, although I am also curious about why the child named Albus Potter did not suffer from the time paradox. And disappeared, but I think this mystery is not difficult to solve..."

"Next, let's get down to business...are you right, me?"

(Who is he talking to?)

The moment this thought came to Dumbledore's mind, he felt an extremely dangerous feeling coming from behind him, and almost without thinking, he activated Disapparation and disappeared from the place. , suddenly appeared in the open space five meters away, dodging a red spell - then, he finally saw clearly the person who suddenly appeared behind him and launched a sneak attack.

——That was the second Voldemort.

Compared with the noseless bald image that has been in front of everyone for a long time, this Voldemort's image is not that bad. He still has hair and looks quite handsome, quite similar to how he looked when he was in school... But The outline of this Voldemort is somewhat vague. Compared with a real person, it is more like an existence between illusion and reality.

"Another Horcrux." Dumbledore looked at the newly-appeared Voldemort and saw through his reality at a glance. However, seeing through the other party's true form did not make him relax at all, because the direction of the spell just now was …

"You're late, 'me'."

A big hole opened in the cage built by Dumbledore, and Voldemort with Delphi's face walked out leisurely. She did not forget to show a dissatisfied expression, and said to Voldemort later: "You are too late to come." slow."

"There is no way. When Severus Snape puts on the crown, his life force is running out. I have to use it sparingly to get here in time."

The second Voldemort is floating in the air. He is more like a ghost than a real person: "And this part of my soul fragment has also been burned by the Fire Curse, and it is still unable to return to the original body... Okay Although there were some mistakes, the overall plan was completed."

"Well, plans can never keep up with changes..."

Voldemort shrugged his shoulders boredly and turned his attention back to Dumbledore, who was facing a formidable enemy: "Well, Professor, now it's two against one... Do you think we have the ability to keep you here forever? Woolen cloth?"

"No, it's two against two."

"Stay focused, Albus."

A familiar voice sounded next to Dumbledore. Although the voice was much older, Dumbledore still recognized the owner of the voice in an instant. He turned his head with great movements, even the thin The long neck made a crisp sound...

There, Gellert Grindelwald was standing next to him.

"Gellert, how could you..."

Even Dumbledore could not believe his eyes at this moment. Why did Grindelwald, who had been sitting in Nurmengard, actually appear in Azkaban at this critical moment?

"Tianmu, don't forget, I'm still a master of prophecy, and your so-called defensive magic can't stop me." Grindelwald smiled, with a hint of cunning in his smile: "Fortunately, I'm here It’s not too late.”

After a short conversation, the two old men looked at the two Voldemorts opposite each other, and the two Voldemorts also exchanged glances at the same time.

"Gellert Grindelwald and Albus Dumbledore... faced off against the greatest White Wizard and the first Dark Lord of this century at the same time. This was not part of the plan." The second Voldemort looked at himself Taking the wand belonging to Snape in his hand, he threw it to the latter: "What should I do, 'me'?"

"There is no other way. We have to retreat first." Voldemort caught the wand, sighed, and then outlined four or five runes in the air. The moment this rune appeared in the air, it emitted a fierce light, and then turned into an ice-blue door that could be passed through by one person.

"Want to escape?"

When the door was taking shape, Grindelwald realized the intentions of the two people opposite him earlier than Dumbledore beside him. He took a step forward and waved his wand, and his best fire spell was instantly activated. It took shape and swept towards the two people opposite!

"Just save the fun of the reunion for next time."

But what shocked Grindelwald was that Voldemort, who had the appearance of Delphi, just used his wand to carve out a few runes again. When these runes faced the fierce fire, they actually caused the flames to sweep back and shrink... Finally, in The tip of Grindelwald's staff disappeared again.

Even Grindelwald looked at the tip of his wand in shock. He had never seen this method of extinguishing the Fire Curse before. It was just like...

"Time magic?"

Dumbledore looked at Grindelwald's wand with the same surprise, and then at Voldemort who was covering his mouth and coughing: "Tom, you...could this be ancient magic?"

"Oh...Professor, as expected of you, you actually have knowledge of ancient magic."

The second Voldemort had already entered the portal first, and Voldemort, who had the appearance of Delphi, straightened up and smiled after hearing Dumbledore's words: "Yes, the wind corresponds to time and flows endlessly... …This is the basic law of alchemy, and all the secrets of ancient magic are hidden in it.”

"So, Professor, the windmill is about to turn again..."

At the end of entering the portal, Voldemort lifted up his skirt and saluted Dumbledore like a real noble lady.

"We'll see you then."
