Volume 5: The Burning Golden Flame Chapter 415 Come with Me
“Dangdangdang!”
The sound of the Tri-Power Cup falling to the ground made a crisp sound unique to metal.
And at this moment, Jon clearly felt that there was something different about this castle.
Outside the library, the lifeless stairs suddenly became lively again, and the statues and armor around the castle also began to have a fresh breath.
Everything began to become special, and this change was like a revival and a new beginning.
Jon himself didn't feel any change in himself, but the sword of Gryffindor in his hand was obviously different.
The slender sword was glowing with a faint light, as if it was endowed with some strange magical power.
But this change did not make Jon feel happy or excited at all. Instead, it made his mood sink to the bottom.
He could feel the connection between himself and Hogwarts Castle, and this was exactly the connection that Voldemort needed after planning for so long!
"Do you feel it? You are the person this castle has been thinking about for more than ten years, Jon."
Voldemort shook Draco's wand, then walked slowly towards John, who was leaning against the wall with a smile. Black mist rose around him, like the countless souls who had died at his hands over the years and could not escape their shackles!
"You and Dumbledore should thank me. I have helped you a lot, right? This is the championship you have always wanted, and this is the castle you have always wanted to take back. Now that your requests have been met, shouldn't you satisfy me in return?"
Jon wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth with his sleeve.
He stared at Voldemort who was approaching, thrust the sword of Gryffindor into the ground, and stood up again with great effort.
At this moment, the black mist that had just attacked Jon with the trophy suddenly dissipated, and then a red feather was revealed inside as if seeking credit!
It was snatched from the lining of John's robe pocket. Dumbledore left it to John as a backup just in case, but Voldemort saw through everything long ago.
"That damn phoenix, I will make it suffer a fate worse than death sooner or later."
Voldemort said such cruel words, but he still had a smile on his face. At the same time, he tapped the wand in his hand against Fawkes' feather, and the next second, the feather turned into a handful of ashes.
"Dumbledore himself used this method to escape from me. Do you think I will give you this chance again?"
Jon looked at the dust that turned into a destroyed feather and fell to the ground, without much fluctuation in his eyes.
In other words, ever since his pupils turned into that ball of golden fire, no one could accurately read his mood from his eyes.
In fact, the feather that Jon had been wearing since the beginning of the game was indeed a backup plan prepared by Dumbledore for him. Once he encountered an extremely dangerous situation, he could immediately summon Fawkes and let him escape with Jon.
But now this insurance measure was discovered and destroyed by Voldemort at the very beginning, which meant that John's only way out was completely blocked, and there was no possibility of escaping from the castle.
John leaned on his sword and looked at Voldemort, who was already three meters away. The sword light emitted from Gryffindor's sword protected him and prevented him from being attacked by the black mist.
"It was you who defeated Professor Dumbledore that year, and then occupied the whole of Britain and planned to annex France, right?"
Voldemort did not deny this.
"Do you think that idiot could have done what I did if he had done these things?"
John was breathing heavily, his lungs had been badly damaged by the blow just now, but when he looked at Voldemort, he narrowed his eyes.
"Yes, of course he can't compare with you. All the changes that have happened in this world actually started with you. If it were the original Voldemort, even if Professor Dumbledore couldn't do anything to him, he wouldn't be able to defeat Professor Dumbledore, let alone have the ability and means to control Britain for more than ten years without any major accidents, and it has been stable until now."
His words caused the smile on Voldemort's face to froze slightly.
This was an expression he had never shown even when he was recognized by John and appeared using Draco's body.
"What do you want to say?"
His expression gradually became calm, and his calm voice seemed to be free of any emotion.
Jon laughed, the blood at the corner of his mouth had not been wiped clean yet. He did not feel anything from Voldemort's emotional change, but he had always looked like everything was under control from the beginning, and now there were finally some emotional changes in his expression, which made Jon very happy.
"I want to say that you are a variable, and I am also a variable. Our appearance has caused unknown changes in the direction of this world. Maybe God knew this from the beginning. No, it cannot be called God. According to the saying in the magic world, it should be called fate. Fate has already calculated some things. This world needs to be corrected, and in order to eliminate these wrong changes, of course, it requires someone like me."
"I should really thank you, Voldemort. I'll call you by that name for now. Thank you for helping me and you make the choice."
Listening to John's words, which sounded like riddles to outsiders, Voldemort's face became even more gloomy.
"What's the point of you saying all this? You're not really so crazy as to think that you have a chance to face me, right? If that's really the case, then I'm wrong. I always thought you were a smart person, and a smart person should have a clear understanding of himself!"
The moment he finished speaking, black fog suddenly surged around Voldemort!
At the same time, he suddenly swung the wand in his hand, and without any warning, the green death light suddenly swept towards John!
Although John was smiling, his vigilance was never reduced at all. As Voldemort's actions unfolded, his entire body was under the levitation spell that took effect instantly, almost at the speed of teleportation, and he dodged the killing curse.
As the black fog spread towards John, the sword light of Gryffindor's sword surged, like a real armor spell, blocking all the black fog one meter away!
After dodging Voldemort's attack, John did not relax his body at all. His feet, which had been sticking to the wall, suddenly exerted force, causing his body floating in the air to fly towards Voldemort like a shot arrow!
The silent spellcasting gave Voldemort an extremely quick response speed. Facing John's counterattack, he raised the wand in his hand without chanting any spell or waving it. The air around him began to become sticky the next moment.
There seemed to be obstacles all around, causing Jon's speed, which was originally so fast that it was almost impossible to react, to become slow.
But before this feeling of sluggishness lasted even a second, John activated the magic of the second gem on the ring!
The spell took effect immediately, and all the magical effects attached to John were wiped out, and the sword of Gryffindor in John's hand had already pierced Voldemort's face!
The wand that had been held upright in Voldemort's hand suddenly changed at this moment.
The entire magic wand began to stretch and widen, and when the tip of the sword pierced, the wand had already turned into a solid iron shield!
"Bang!"
A deafening sound echoed throughout the entire library. Jon's arm was numb from the shock , but he still held on tightly to the hilt of the sword!
Afterwards, the wand that had turned into a shield turned back into a normal wand after blocking John's sword, and Voldemort looked at John with cold eyes.
The green light lit up again, and Voldemort had obviously figured out the strangeness of John.
Not only is there flying magic that does not cause any overflow of magic fluctuations, but there is also a strange defense that can erase the effects of magic.
Any other spell would definitely be absorbed by John's Stop Spell before it could hit him, because no matter how powerful and sophisticated Voldemort's spells were, he could only mobilize Draco's magic.
This is John's greatest advantage. Draco's magic quality is certainly not as good as John's, so after using the ring magic to stop the spell, John doesn't have to worry about Voldemort's other spells at all. The only thing he needs to pay attention to is the killing curse, which has no antidote!
Voldemort naturally discovered this, so the only two ways he had to kill Jon were either to hit him head-on with the Killing Curse, or for the black mist to break through the defenses attached to the sword of Gryffindor with the help of the castle and engulf Jon.
Now John could only be thankful that Voldemort had a powerful soul and means, but his magic could not keep up. He also understood very clearly that the most important purpose of this killing curse was not to kill him, but to force him away from him!
The Voldemort in front of him is definitely a person who is willing to use his brain no matter what he does or when he is fighting.
He knew very well what Jon's strengths and weaknesses were now. Human physical strength is limited, and when a wizard is casting spells, he will not feel much fatigue at all as long as he does not cast spells at a fast pace for more than three hours in a row.
All Voldemort has to do now is not give Jon a chance to get close to him. He will be like a wolf biting a herd of cattle. When Jon, the cattle already covered in scars, is exhausted, it will be the time for him to kill him!
But such a close distance was exactly the opportunity that Jon had been preparing for!
Facing the green light at the tip of Voldemort's wand, there was no fear on John's face. Instead, he smiled and threw away the Gryffindor sword in his hand!
Without the protection of the sword light, the surrounding black fog instantly engulfed Jon like a swarm of bees!
At this moment, Voldemort suddenly felt a great fear and anxiety in his heart!
The killing curse in his hand had already lit up and shot out from the tip of the wand, but even though he had pushed the casting speed to the extreme, there was no way to stop John's next move!
John opened his arms and embraced the body that was controlled by Voldemort but belonged to Draco Malfoy!
At the moment he was hugged by him, Voldemort felt a pain like being pricked by a needle behind him, where Jon's hand was originally holding the sword!
The distance was too close, so close that the Armor Spell had no effect and normal defensive measures were not possible!
At the moment when that not-so-strong pain came from his back, Voldemort felt his soul tremble violently!
At this moment, Jon's eyes were completely filled with the deathly green.
There was no way he could avoid it at such a close distance, and he had no intention of avoiding it from the beginning.
After Fawkes' feathers were destroyed by Voldemort, Jon was doomed to have no chance of escaping today. He knew better than anyone that even though the two of them seemed to be evenly matched for the time being, he would undoubtedly die as time dragged on.
Voldemort's attainments in magic were not something he could catch up with just by studying for a few years. John's only chance was to find an opportunity.
An opportunity to die together with Voldemort in front of him.
This was another backup plan that Dumbledore and Salazar had prepared together, a backup plan that both John and Dumbledore had prepared.
Since Voldemort learned the knowledge of fusing Horcruxes from his ancestors, Salazar could naturally find a way to split his soul again.
Before the third project began, neither John nor Dumbledore knew what Voldemort wanted to do, but they both prepared something to break up Voldemort's collection of Horcruxes, so that if any of them encountered Voldemort with the remnants of the Horcruxes, they would have means specifically targeting him.
According to Salazar's inference, if the soul that had been reunited was violently torn apart again, it would be impossible for a normal person to withstand such soul damage. However, how to create a suitable opportunity to use this thing depends on Dumbledore or John himself.
And John had obviously found the right opportunity at this moment. Voldemort thought that he would definitely dodge the killing curse, but he didn't!
Just like what he just said.
The turning point where the world changed was the man standing in front of him who claimed to be Voldemort, and John himself was not supposed to be a soul belonging to this world!
The magical world, which was supposed to go through hardships but eventually move towards light, has now become riddled with holes. John clearly realizes that as long as he eliminates Voldemort in front of him, everything will return to its original state.
As for him.
It was originally an accident that shouldn't have happened here. After dying in the previous life, I was able to travel here and meet so many lovely people and experience so many wonderful things. This is already a big gain!
The green light hit Jon thoroughly.
At this moment, there was only one thought left in his mind.
'Come with me, Voldemort, and leave this world without you.'
