I became Voldemort

Chapter 99: The Shadow Behind Destiny



Chapter 99: The Shadow Behind Destiny

Germany, a country that has only been unified for a short time, seems to be a little chaotic. 

But for wizards, there is only one German magical world from beginning to end, and the wall that isolates Muggles cannot isolate wizards.

Gregorovich got up very early. August would be his busiest month. Little wizards who had received letters of admission to Durmstrang Institute, one after another would come to his wand shop under the leadership of their parents to buy wands. He counts on this month for most of his business.

But today seems a little different.

When Grigorovitch opened the window, he saw a huge eagle passing in the sky. Its golden feathers were shining brightly in the morning light, and it looked very beautiful.

But he was not happy at all.

He was reminded of a man who had disappeared for a long time - Gellert Grindelwald.

When the thief stole the Elder Wand from his hand, he squatted leisurely on the windowsill, looking like a big golden bird.

"I hope it won't be a bad day." He sighed. At this moment, the bird in the sky had disappeared. Grigovitch retreated into the house. It was time for him to prepare for the opening.

After taking care of everything, Grigovitch opened the door, thinking about when he would welcome his first guest.

However, to his surprise, his first guest was already in front of the door waiting patiently.

Not a little wizard, but a young boy, very tall and handsome.

Compared to wizards, the other party is dressed more like a Muggle. Even though Grigovitch doesn't understand the Muggle dressing style very well, he has to admit that the other party's outfit looks very suitable, as if it were placed on a perfectly shaped mannequin and the mannequin doll that served as the mold came to life and appeared in front of his shop.

Of course, the most peculiar thing is the other party's hair color and eye color.

The ends of the thick black hair are dyed gold, and the pupils are also golden as if they are inlaid with two golden ambers.

Gregorovich had never seen the person in front of him, and he was sure that the person was not one of his previous clients. However, Cyrus's appearance still made him feel good, and he couldn't help but say in a friendly tone: "Come to buy a wand?"

"Yeah, the wand from before was broken."

The wizard appearing here at this moment is none other than Cyrus.

In fact, his wand was not broken.

Malfoy specially made him a wand that was very similar to the one Voldemort used before. It was made of yew wood, had phoenix tail feathers, and even the appearance of the wand was exactly the same.

But the wand didn't work well for Cyrus.

Wandology is a very deep knowledge. Even wands made from the same kind of materials will not be exactly the same.

Even if they are taken from the same tree, the same magical animal, or they are like brothers, they may not be the same. It is to choose two wizards with completely opposite personalities.

Moreover, the combination of yew wand and phoenix tail feathers may be suitable for Voldemort, but it may not be suitable for Cyrus because Voldemort's and Cyrus's personalities differ greatly.

The conditions were limited before, but now that he is finally free, Cyrus naturally plans to get a brand new wand that suits him, preferably one that is powerful enough!

Although he is now temporarily free from the threat of Dumbledore, Cyrus actually believes that his situation is not so optimistic. While in Azkaban, Cyrus took a few drops of Felix Felicis to give himself some confidence. As a result, he developed the unprecedented "Imagomagus". He was very excited at the time.

But when the effect of the elixir completely disappeared, he suddenly realized something was wrong.

The elixir of blessing can indeed give people a little inspiration, but it is impossible to directly create such a powerful spell. The transformation of Magus from Fantastic Beasts is a problem that has troubled wizards for thousands of years, and it is impossible to get the answer so easily.

The voice that appeared in his mind at that time was still a bit weird now that he thought about it. If he hadn't been under the influence of Felix Filicis at the time, Cyrus would never have tried it rashly.

An unknown voice, an invisible thought - he himself had used this method to deceive Ginny, only to lose his vigilance. Even if the results seem good now, who knows what impact this voice will have?

But what scared him the most was that the spell that echoed in his mind countless times was immediately forgotten by him after he practiced magic.

This is a bit too weird.

You know, he was resurrected from the diary, but his abilities when he was in the Horcrux state did not disappear. It can be said that he himself is a living "pensieve". All the memories, as long as he thinks about them, must be there!

But at dawn when the storm came, Cyrus's memory about the spell was not so clear that he shuddered.

He only remembered one spell, but when he tried to replay that memory in front of his eyes over and over again, the spell in his mind turned into a harsh noise as if it had been cast with magic to prevent eavesdropping. It's like a TV that can't receive a signal.

There can only be two reasons for this result: The first is that he did not hear the spell and had no relevant memory, so the spell naturally did not exist. But obviously, he heard and tried it so this possibility is not established; another possibility is that someone has tampered with his memory, and it was without him noticing.

But who could modify his memory without him noticing?

Not even Dumbledore could have done this.

Cyrus felt as if he had suddenly fallen into a huge net.

Destiny seemed to be intertwining with something, and someone was standing behind the loom of fate to control everything.

He felt very urgent and also longed for stronger power!

No one wants to be a pawn that can be sacrificed at any time, even if the person standing behind it is fate itself.

For this reason, Cyrus especially wrote to Harry, hoping that he could help pay attention to whether Professor Sybill Trelawney would leave any new prophecies.

This old lady didn't leave many serious prophecies in her life, but two of them were related to Harry and Voldemort.

Cyrus was born out of Voldemort, reborn like a snake that shed its skin, but he also had to admit that he did have a huge connection with Voldemort now. Maybe the new prophecy will also mention a bit of his destiny?

But no matter what, it is impossible to fight against fate without enough strength. You must first make yourself stronger.

"Come in and take a look. It's still early. After a while, there might be many little wizards coming." Grigroovic slowly turned sideways and let Cyrus walk into the store.

This wand shop is almost the same as Ollivander's was, and Grigovitch himself was much older than Ollivander.

In fact, he was more than ten years older than Dumbledore.
