Volume 4: The Sea and the Ship Heading North Chapter 192 Three New Diary Pages
Turning over the page with the name, the next page is filled with letters.
The font is very beautiful, obviously the owner of this diary has a good handwriting.
[That old guy Mellors is just an idiot! ]
[I just tentatively asked him about the Unforgivable Curses, and he looked doubtful, as if he thought that if I knew such powerful magic, I would blow up the Ministry of Magic in the next second.]
[That idiot from Gryffindor named Hagrid was even more stupid. He actually kept a bunch of Flobberworms in his dormitory. When I found them and took them away, he begged me not to hurt them. Did he know how disgusting those damn bugs were? I even felt disgusted with my wand when I burned them to death with the Flame Curse! ]
[Sure enough, the people in Gryffindor are always a bunch of hopeless idiots. They are more like pigs than lions.]
[However, it is because there are so many stupid people that the smart people can show their brilliance, right? ]
[The greatest wizard in the future will always need some writing to record his learning process, but how can those mediocre people be qualified to know and evaluate my life so early? ]
[Well, so, starting today, I will record it myself . ]
Fred held up the fang and read the contents of the diary. He curled his lips.
"If this is really the Dark Lord's diary, then it's hilarious. It's even more arrogant than Percy."
Jon looked at this first diary entry, his eyes full of thought.
"In some ways, Voldemort is indeed arrogant, but he does have the capital to be arrogant. Even though he calls everyone a fool in his diary, since it is a diary, what is written here are psychological words that cannot be seen by others."
"From what I know, the Dark Lord was always well-liked by many professors and classmates during his student days. People said that Tom Riddle was a gentleman with noble character, friendly attitude and excellent academic performance."
"So, nowadays, few people actually know the real name of the current Dark Lord, and no one would connect him with the outstanding male chairman more than 50 years ago."
Fred said disdainfully.
"This proves that he is a good actor, hypocritical and pretentious. I heard from Bill that there were many such people in Slytherin House before Hogwarts Castle fell."
Jon shrugged.
"Look, just like Tom Riddle thinks that all Gryffindors are idiots, you are prejudiced against Slytherin even though you haven't even participated in the sorting. But in fact, if the Dark Lord hadn't occupied the wizarding world and we still had to sort the houses, the students around you would definitely be sorted into Slytherin. But do you think they are hypocritical?"
"If Percy were to be sorted, he would definitely be sorted into Slytherin," Fred said confidently.
Jon didn't discuss the matter with Fred any further. Although it was just a diary that seemed to be basically worthless based on its content, Jon had already noticed the problem.
This diary has substantial content, but in the original book, after the diary was made into a Horcrux, a part of Voldemort's soul was housed in it.
This part of the soul is equivalent to his other self in his school days, with the same memories, and the contents of the diary naturally disappeared.
As long as the residual soul stored in the diary has thoughts, he can communicate with anyone through this book.
But obviously, the diary in Jon's hand now does not have such a function. It is just like an ordinary book, and even the content is completely in line with the process of a middle school student recording his inner thoughts and life from the beginning.
I continued flipping through the pages, and the next few pages were filled with Tom's inner thoughts about the "idiots" around him, mixed with his unique insights and achievements when he was secretly studying black magic. At this time, his terrifying talent on the dark path had already been revealed.
Jon kept flipping until he was almost at the end, and he saw a diary entry with content that sounded familiar to him.
The content of this article and the previous page obviously span a long time, as if a long time had passed before Riddle finally had something memorable to record.
【I finally found it! 】
[It turns out to be in the girls' bathroom. It's time to clean up! ]
[This school doesn't need those lowly fools. In the plan of our ancestors, they set foot in this castle with their lowly bodies. They can only make up for this mistake with their lives! ]
[The noble snake king will regain the favor of his new master and complete the mission he was supposed to complete! ]
[Tomorrow, the cleaning begins! ]
The whole article is basically Tom's inner monologue, and you can see from the lines that he is very excited.
This was obviously the day he discovered the entrance to the secret room, and it was also the day he truly found his inherited life experience, proving that his origins were indeed extremely noble.
Jon naturally knew what happened afterwards.
Tom successfully released the basilisk and killed a Muggle girl, Myrtle, on the first day.
He also used her life to make the diary into his first Horcrux.
However, Tom's cleansing plan was forced to stop after killing the first innocent person.
Because the situation was so serious that the school had to be closed, Tom, an orphan, had no choice but to return to the orphanage .
For this reason, he decisively put the blame on Hagrid, and re-sealed the opened Chamber of Secrets, and it has never been opened again.
There were a few more pages at the back of the diary, and Jon continued to flip through them.
But on the next page, it was obvious to him that something was wrong.
Starting from this page, the handwriting became much more sloppy, and the color and traces of the ink did not seem to be very old.
Jon frowned and read the messy handwriting carefully.
【Ignorant idiot! 】
[I will also become such an ignorant fool! ]
[People should control magic, not be controlled by magic! ]
[Horcruxes are not the perfect answer to immortality...]
[I want to take it back... I want to take everything back...
Jon held his breath and turned to the next page. The handwriting on this page was even messier. It was even impossible to tell that the messy strokes were writing one letter after another. He took a lot of effort to distinguish each word one by one.
[I want to start over... Don't be stupid again! Don't be stupid again... I am more suitable... I am the real one...]
[I will become stronger... The power of magic comes from the soul... My power belongs to me...]
