Chapter 257 Breaking off friendship and righteousness
Faced with the Fierce Fire Curse, Lumi did not dare to be too bold, and without hesitation, he used Ten Thousand Curses to stop the magic.
After the Fire Curse was released, Voldemort watched Lumi break the Fire Curse easily, with even greater fondness in his eyes.
"Oh, Lumi, my dear disciple, you have given me many surprises."
As he spoke, he waved his wand, and a familiar thick black mist poured out of his wand.
Lumi recognized it at a glance. This was summoning demons into battle.
"How did you learn?"
Harry on the side did not expect that Lumi's counter-curse could actually be learned by Voldemort.
The black mist turned into a large cocoon, and a strong heartbeat could be heard from inside.
"How could I do that? Hahaha."
Voldemort seemed to have heard something funny. He looked at Harry and said, "What do you think?"
"I..."
"It's because Harry is your Horcrux, right."
Lumi pointed out directly: "You can observe Harry's every move through the Horcrux, including my anti-curse book."
"What? Am I his Horcrux?"
Upon hearing this, Harry glanced at Lumi in disbelief, and then looked at Voldemort, hoping to see denial and ridicule in the other person's eyes.
But Voldemort's reaction was not what Harry expected, instead he laughed.
"When did you know that?"
"When school starts."
"But you still gave him the counter-curse book."
"Yes, after all, you taught me how to use magic."
Lumi admitted this graciously.
"One of the purposes of giving you the counter-curse book is to teach him some magic through your eyes." He said to Harry.
After saying that, he didn't care about Harry's reaction. He turned to Voldemort and said, "Now that we have made our words clear, you should also know what I mean."
"Are you going to use the counter-spell book to sever the master-disciple relationship between you and me?"
Voldemort was not stupid and knew the meaning of Lumi's move.
After these few confrontations, Lumi did not use powerful magic, and even intentionally or unintentionally allowed him to expand his power.
Judging from the power Lumi just showed, if he had just killed him when he was resurrected, he would probably die again now.
And this time, although Lumi has his own plan, does this plan have to be his?
Sooner or later Lumi will find a way that doesn't require him.
Like creating a more terrifying Dark Lord.
As he says now.
"You taught me so much magic, and I'm grateful to you."
Lumi clenched the wand tightly, stopped Harry who was about to take action, and said to Voldemort: "You have learned so much about the contents of the anti-curse book through Harry, even if I repay your favor."
"I killed several of your people today, and their bodies are in the Department of Mysteries. I have use for their bodies, but you can't take them away."
"The Aurors from the Ministry of Magic will be here in a few minutes. You can show your face and leave."
"But from now on, we will no longer have any grudges."
"If we meet again someday."
"At that time, either you will die or I will live."
[I can finally feel free of worries. After going around for so long, it’s finally time to finish. 】
After listening to Lumi's words, Voldemort smiled, showing his teeth in an exaggerated smile.
"Okay, okay, I'm looking forward to seeing you next time."
Voldemort knew that his plan to win over Lumi had already gone wrong when Pettigrew killed Cedric.
If you fail to win over, you will become an enemy.
Many of the spells recorded in the Counter-Spell Book fit him very well.
For example, he likes this summoning demons into battle very much.
It's a pity that there are only three advanced spells in the book.
The Patronus Curse, Cruciatus Curse and Vulcan Clear the Way.
"It's almost time..."
Lumi said, pointing his wand at the giant cocoon next to Voldemort.
At this time, the demon summoned by Voldemort has broken out of its cocoon.
It looks as white as Voldemort, with four hard horns on its head, a thick tail, giant black wings, and small sharp teeth in its mouth.
Its eyes are red, like those of a snake.
"Go ahead, kid, hehehe."
Voldemort pointed at Lumi, and the demon roared, opened its bloody mouth and rushed towards Lumi.
"Call the gods to protect you!"
Lumi fired a patronus spell with his backhand, and the white dragon took shape again.
Patronuses and demons are opposite magics, and they restrain each other.
After removing the restriction of distance, the strength of the two depends on the negative and positive emotions of both parties.
When it comes to negative emotions, no one can compare to Voldemort.
The two fought in the square.
The demon he summoned was so powerful that Lumi's patron saint actually felt faintly suppressed.
The patron saint and the demon attacked each other, and the aftermath of the fighting shattered the Ministry of Magic's square.
The splendid statue was broken into pieces, and the glass used for lighting was not spared.
The fragments were carried by the wind, cutting Fudge's photo into pieces, and fell like raindrops.
At this time, Fudge came here with the Aurors, and he looked at Voldemort in disbelief.
Not only him, but also a group of Ministry of Magic officials following him saw it. They looked at the two behemoths fighting in the square and felt fear.
Seeing that these people were already here, Voldemort laughed, and then he disapparated and left here.
As Voldemort left, the combat effectiveness of the demon he summoned also gradually declined. It was swept to the ground by Lumi's patron saint with its tail, and then sat on its body and spit out white dragon flames.
Positive emotions are on the devil, just like fire meets butter. The devil's body melts and the black power gradually dissipates.
After a few seconds, perhaps Voldemort had already stood still. The demon could no longer hold on and turned into pieces.
These fragments were completely destroyed by the dragon's breath of the patron saint, and then roared to the sky with a victor's roar.
Lumi's goal had been achieved. He took back his patronus and faced Fudge.
"As you can see, he's back."
The tragic situation around him, as well as the scene just now, confirmed that Voldemort had indeed returned.
Even if Fudge doesn't admit it anymore, this is an unchangeable fact.
Fudge, who recognized the reality, seemed to have been drained of all his strength and could barely stand still.
The secretary beside him quickly supported him.
He murmured: "He's back, he's really back, what should we do?"
"I think it's time for you to make a decision, Secretary Fudge."
Lumi cleaned himself up casually, and the dust on his body disappeared.
"There are several corpses in the Department of Mysteries. They were all Death Eaters and I killed them."
He said in Fudge's ear in a voice that only the two of them could hear: "If you don't use it anymore, you won't be the master of those fire elves."
This sentence shocked Fudge, and then he nodded with difficulty.
