Chapitre 90: Chapter 90: Fleecing Riddle (Edited)
"I think you are right. I was too weak before and didn't take advantage of the gifts my ancestors gave me." Tom continued writing in the Journal.
"You've finally figured it out." A line appeared in the journal, and there was a sense of hatred between the lines.
Tom wrote in the journal, and it was persuasive. The general meaning was: I, Tom, have been a wanderer half my life (Can ten years be half a life?), and now I have to meet an older brother (I am praising you too much, Voldemort, you are really much older than me by generations), and I will be with you in trouble (If there is trouble, you will take the blame), and I will be with you in life and in death (I myself will send you to see Merlin, and watch you die, definitely until the last second of your life)...
In the end, Tom's point is: "But I am too weak, I have no power."
Brother, you see I'm not strong enough either, don't you have to show me something to make me stronger?
Riddle's diary instinctively sensed that something was wrong, but he did not panic: As long as the other party desired power, he would have a chance to control it!
Riddle could sense that this Tom seemed to be deliberately praising him, trying to make a profit, as he had done before. But Riddle didn't care: It was good to have desire. It would only be a problem if this little schoolboy named Tom was a slacker.
"Is there anything you want to learn? What year are you in?" the Diary asked.
After Tom finished answering, Riddle was relieved to learn that Tom had just finished first year: a second year student, he could definitely teach him quite easily.
"Okay, I'll start by teaching you a wonderful incantation that many adult wizards don't know how to use: the (Protego) Charm! The principle of the (Protego) Charm is..." Such words appeared in the Journal.
"I know that" Tom wrote in the Diary.
Diary: "???"
He was a bit confused: how did this guy know such a high-end spell? Hadn't he just graduated from first year?
"It's not a big problem, since you know the Charm (Protego), I think you can learn the recovery spell, his spell is recover as before..." Such words appeared in the Diary.
"I know that Enchantment too" Tom wrote in the Diary quickly.
Diary: "..."
"Then I have some tips on Transfiguration, perfect for a second year wizard, with these tips, you won't have problems with lessons and exams..." Such words appeared in the Journal.
"I already have the tips" Tom interrupted.
Diary: "How do you know everything? do you even know how to cast spells without a wand and the Avada Kedavra spell?"
"One thing to say, actually" Scribbled Tom.
Diary, "Are you here to entertain me? A young wizard should behave like a young wizard! What is it with Hogwarts now, the second years know Avada Kedavra, It's a shame!".
Tom wrote, "Actually, there are a lot of spells I don't know, but you haven't even asked me..."
But it looked like Riddle was about to get pissed off, so he stopped stalling and got straight to the point and asked his question, "So, Riddle, do you know anything about varitology and alchemy? I have some questions about runes I'd like to ask."
Diary: "Are you really a second year wizard? You've studied a lot, my friend! But I know a little about it!"
So Tom watched Riddle talk about the principles of runes. Maybe it was because of previous mistakes, but now Riddle was trying to make up for it with the runes, and he went into such detail and depth that you could tell Riddle had taught him everything.
Line after line appeared in the journal at such a rapid pace that Tom felt sorry for Riddle: it was nearly ten thousand words.
Riddle's understanding of the runes was a little different from Ollivander's. Ollivander was looking for stability in magic output, teleportation, and more than one secondary application. Riddle, on the other hand, was looking for attack.
To put it bluntly, Ollivander's runes are support runes, while Riddle's are attack runes.
In addition, runes are usually in sets of 7, or in some cases 9, and in varitology, one set of runes is usually enough,
Ollivander's may have a secret lore that allows them to link two sets of runes together. But for someone like Riddle, who always has attack in mind, that's not enough.
Seven runes, two at the beginning and two at the end, two more for transmission and so on, with transformations and connections in between, and maybe only one that actually works. A flying luminous coin like the one Tom made earlier could be considered multifunctional.
"I've done some research on chaining multiple runes." Riddle showed Tom what he had worked out without any reservations: in his opinion, how could he have had time to understand it when he had only written it down and then erased it in a matter of seconds? How could he understand it after seeing it once? He would have been dizzy in ten minutes, I'm afraid.
But this time, Riddle miscalculated.
It was true that Tom couldn't remember everything, but he could still understand the meaning of what Riddle wrote, and in a way, he could copy his notes!
He had Riddle's diary to his left and a stack of parchment to his right, and he had already copied word for word what Riddle had dictated to him. Little did Riddle know that the pen in Tom's hand did not need to be dipped in ink and had an automatic error correction feature.
Tom had decided that this manuscript on the study of runes was not something he would keep as Lockhart, he was not a man who would take the honor for himself, he respected intellectual property!
In honor of Mr. Riddle's work, this manuscript will bear his name and be called Tom's Runes.
This is research done by Tom, and all of these theories are presented by Tom.
"... These are my personal experiences, there is little information out there, some alchemists may have done similar research, but my research should be at the forefront of the magical world." Riddle wrote proudly.
"The runes are usually in groups of seven, but I can join them by substituting the rune at the end of the rune for this one and the rune at the beginning of the next rune for that one. And so on, up to seven sets of runes can be joined together. If these seven runes don't do what you want, I've invented two other runes of my own creation, which can be used to connect two sets of runes, and even better, they come with the ability to judge..."
Riddle showed Tom a total of four runes, two of which he had found a unique use for, and two others he had somehow "created", Tom suspected that Riddle had found the legacy of an ancient wizard: after all, it was a bit unbelievable that a sixth year could create his own runes, and such powerful ones at that.
But whatever the origin of the rune, Tom made a profit. He looked at the diary with a kindly look - poor Riddle didn't know he was about to be fleeced by Tom!
