"Are you sure there is really some powerful magic on it?"
Tom stared at the Gaunt family heirloom ring on his hand, and could not see anything special about it.
"Of course you can't see anything when you look at it like this... Who does research just by looking?"
Levander snatched the ring from his hand unhappily.
"Even if it is a relic left by Slytherin, it is not necessarily a magical item."
Tom said unconvinced.
"You are a descendant of Slytherin, you should understand the character of Slytherin better.
Would you use a non-magical item as an heirloom?"
Levander asked.
"No..." Tom answered immediately.
Logically speaking, how can something used as an heirloom be an ordinary thing!
If it were him, at least the material couldn't be an ordinary gem, right? !
"Even you, a proud Slytherin like you, wouldn't just pick up a random gem and make it an heirloom?"
"Actually... this ring was probably made by the Gaunt family, not Slytherin.
No Slytherin has ever seen it," Tom corrected.
"So it can't be anything ordinary!"
Despite being corrected, Levid seemed even more excited.
"Don't you know what the Gaunt family is like?
How could they allow something like that into their home?
So, what they consider an heirloom can't be anything simple?"
"This... you can even justify it!"
Tom, who had originally thought he had the upper hand, was shocked.
"The Gaunt family may be down and out now, but they used to be rich!"
Levid said, examining the ring in his hand.
He then took out a glass bottle, opened the lid, and poured the colorless liquid into a glass. "Stay tuned, buddy!"
Tom, seeing Levid perform an experiment for the first time, was filled with curiosity.
"What's this?" he asked, pointing at the liquid Levid had just poured out.
"This is a potion to test magic power.
Simply dip an item in it and you'll know the strength of the magic within, and from there, you can preliminarily infer whether it possesses powerful magic!"
Levid said, dropping the ring entirely into the glass.
"And then... how do you tell?"
Tom asked again.
"See?
This previously colorless potion is starting to change color!
If it's a neutral item, it'll turn blue, and if it's magical, it'll turn red!
And... the stronger the magic, the darker the color!"
As Levid finished his words, the potion that had been soaking the ring turned a dark red...
"Hiss... doesn't this mean there's extremely powerful black magic within it?"
Tom asked, a little nervous.
He'd been wearing it the entire time.
If the black magic was so powerful, didn't that mean he'd nearly lost his life?
"Strong magic doesn't mean it's black magic... Tom, it's not just black magic that's powerful.
You have to remember that," Levid said.
"It can be powerful without being black magic?"
Tom was a little stunned.
He himself had secretly visited the restricted section.
The knowledge he read in those books had subtly taught Tom that if he wanted to become powerful, he had to learn the dark arts.
This was because the power of the dark arts was unmatched by other normal magic.
But now, Levid was telling him that non-dark magic could also be powerful?
"Of course! Don't disbelieve me, let me ask you, is Professor Dumbledore powerful?"
"Yes..." Tom nodded.
"He doesn't use the dark arts now," Levid said.
"How do you know he doesn't use the dark arts now?"
Tom asked.
"Professor Dumbledore always told us in his Defense Against the Dark Arts class that love is powerful.
Have you ever seen anyone who regularly practices the Dark Arts talk about 'love'?"
Tom curled his lips in disdain.
"He did say that... but I don't think it's possible.
How could someone with such an emotion as 'love' possibly perform powerful magic?
He must be lying!"
"Strong emotions can strengthen your spells, there's no doubt about that.
So why are you so sure that strong emotions are only negative?
In fact, as long as the emotion is strong enough, both positive and negative, it can enhance your magic!
Of course... some special magic can only work with certain emotions, but that's another matter.
If you don't believe me, try using different emotions yourself, like the Disarming Charm..." Levander said as he fished the ring out.
Tom, on the other hand, fell into deep thought.
Could it be that Dumbledore was truly a powerful wizard who had abandoned the Dark Arts that require negative emotions?
"What about you?
Do you also think Dumbledore is right?"
Tom asked after a long pause.
"He just doesn't want us to use black magic.
Although, without black magic, we can become powerful just like him, but only children make choices!
Since black magic is just as powerful, why shouldn't I use it?
Tom, I don't make choices, I want it all!
Besides, how can we properly defend against black magic if we don't understand it, right?"
"You really are... everything you say makes sense... Wait!
What did you do?!"
Tom looked at Levid in shock.
It turned out that just when Tom was still thinking, Levid had already pried the black gem off the ring...
In fact, the series of tests just now were just for Tom to see.
How could Levid not know that this black gem was the legendary Resurrection Stone, one of the three sacred artifacts?
So, the superficial work was done, and the next step was to see the effect of the Resurrection Stone!
Levid was very curious about the function of the Resurrection Stone!
But in Tom's eyes, it was just Levander dismantling the Gaunt family ring...
"We agreed! It can't be damaged!"
Tom complained angrily.
"Tom, the magic of this ring is only in the gemstone.
The rest is just worthless gold and silver," Levander said.
"Even if it's worthless, it's still a piece! I..."
"Tom, this is a Gaunt family heirloom.
Didn't you say you were leaving the Gaunt family?
Then why are you still carrying an heirloom engraved with the Gaunt family name?
I think you should get a new ring and write Riddle or Voldemort on it, and then set the gemstone in it."
"Voldemort what?"
"Don't worry about the details, Tom.
If you don't want to get a new one, I'll put it back in after the experiment.
It's just dismantled, not destroyed.
Why are you so excited?"
"You..." Tom wanted to yell at Levander, but after thinking about it, he felt that he had a point...
Why couldn't he, Tom, inherit a new family?
If only he could achieve the same success as Slytherin!
Then his descendants would only say they were descendants of Riddle, not Slytherin!
Well... Of course, if possible, the last name Riddle couldn't be changed to something more appealing...
While Tom was still daydreaming about the future, Levitra had already cleaned the Resurrection Stone and held it in his hand, examining it carefully.
The dark Resurrection Stone was dull and lusterless.
Without looking closely, you couldn't even see the tiny letters engraved on the stone: "Peverell."
The three Peverell brothers were the legendary brothers who received the Deathly Hallows from the hands of the Gaunts.
The second brother, the ancestor of the Gaunt family, received the Resurrection Stone, while the ancestor of the Potter family was the third brother who received the Invisibility Cloak.
As for the eldest brother who received the Elder Wand... He was assassinated, so there are currently no known descendants.
The Elder Wand is now in Grindelwald's hands.
"Hmm... should I find a way to trick the Potters into giving me the Invisibility Cloak?"
Levid thought as he spun the Resurrection Stone on his finger like a fidget spinner.
On the third spin,he suddenly felt a mist appear around him.
Even the color of the space dimmed!
Levid was startled and looked at Tom beside him.
"Did you notice... anything wrong?"
"No..." Tom looked around, puzzled. "What are you trying to do?"
"No... I think I know what the magic on this gem is," Levid said deliberately.
Then he looked at the mist, which only he could see, with some anticipation.
He also wanted to know if the Resurrection Stone could summon the souls of his deceased relatives who had passed away before he crossed over!
However, just as the mist began to take shape, the humanoid substance that was about to take shape suddenly dissipated!
Levid looked at the remaining mist in surprise and frowned.
Logically, the Resurrection Stone couldn't summon actual souls of the dead; it could only simulate the image of the deceased the stone's bearer imagined.
According to this conclusion, even if Levid's relatives weren't from this world, they could still be simulated!
But now... the simulation failed!
Could it be that... the souls summoned by this thing weren't entirely simulated?
Or perhaps they did have some slight connection to the world of the dead?
Therefore, only those who had never existed in this world could be simulated?
As Levid pondered this, Tom grew frustrated. "
That bastard, just claimed he knew the magic of this gem, and then he went silent!
Damn it, why don't you say something?
You can't keep us on suspense like this!
" "So, what exactly is the magic of this gem?"
Tom asked calmly, holding back his anger.
He couldn't curse, at least not openly.
That bastard Levid would be deadly if he got revenge!
"Try it... there's a surprise," Levid said, handing the Resurrection Stone to Tom.
"Take it in your hand and turn it three or more times..."
At this moment, Levitra was very excited.
The merit points he had earned from Tom had been decreasing recently.
So, if he could lend this Resurrection Stone to Dumbledore, would he get more merit points?
