Harry Potter: From Muggle Cousin to Conceptual Wizard

Chapter 290 Cleverly Obtaining Perverted Love! The Soul-Capturing Experiment a Great Success!

But Dudley remained unmoved, his heart as hard as stone.

He spoke in a sinister voice, like that of an evil villain: "Bellatrix, you should beg yourself, not me!"

Didn't you just say that you were willing to sacrifice everything for Voldemort to prove your love?

Then go ahead and shower your love upon this tattered diary that can protect the fragments of Voldemort's soul!

"As long as your love is deep enough, the diary will no longer be damaged, and this fragment of Voldemort's soul will no longer have to suffer."

Dudley gave him a wink while he was giving Dumbledore, who had been watching the whole thing unfold.

Dumbledore immediately understood, took out a soda can from his sleeve, and grasped the Elder Wand, ready to sense and collect love.

This was yet another magical artifact transformed from an empty orange soda can, but this time it wasn't a key; instead, it was a storage device for love power, similar to the flags of the four academies.

Dumbledore prepared several of the same aluminum cans.

Old Deng was ready, but Ghost Bella was stunned.

She has feelings for him, but how can she express them?

Furthermore, even if she knew how to release it, should she have believed the enemy's lies and released it?

Unbeknownst to Bellatrix, Dumbledore had already sensed the deep affection she emanated for Voldemort and for the diary that protected Voldemort's soul.

She is constantly waving her magic wand, collecting these feelings of love and storing them in magically modified soda cans.

After being bombarded with targeted verbal attacks by Dudley, Ghost Bella's main thought was already occupied by the idea of ​​'proving her love for Voldemort'.

At this moment, even if some distracting thoughts arise, they are related to this matter.

The power of love emanating from her was constantly radiating, yet she was completely unaware of it.

"Hey, hey, hey! I told you to express your love for Voldemort, not to stand there like a dazed person!"

Seeing that Bella the Ghost was distracted, Dudley immediately spoke to wake her up, and at the same time, he increased the power of the spell in his hand, adding fuel to the fire for Bella the Ghost.

"do not want!"

Bella the Ghost was thrown into chaos, her reason almost completely gone, because she sensed that the younger version of Voldemort's soul was in even greater pain.

And in doing so, she unknowingly radiated even more love.

More than an hour later, Dumbledore had collected the love power of the three cans and signaled to Dudley with his eyes that he had succeeded.

Dudley immediately controlled the Soul-Capturing Beam in his hand to change direction and target it, pulling the frantic, howling ghost Bella back into the Soul Storage Space within his body.

At the same time, Dumbledore also went all out, wielding the Elder Wand and casting a full-force repair spell on the tattered Horcrux of the diary.

As soon as the spell was cast, the damage to the Horcrux was reduced by more than half, and even the younger version of Voldemort's soul, which had returned to the Horcrux, recovered considerably.

"Dali, now that we have the power of love for the experiment, should we wait for the soul-anesthetizing potion to be made, or..."

After Dumbledore had roughly repaired the Horcrux in the diary, he asked Dudley.

"Use half of Bellatrix's power of love. Let's test the abilities the Soul-Capturing Mirror grants me on the diary Horcrux first! As for the Soul-Anesthetic Potion, we'll experiment with it on the Gauntlet Horcrux after it's made!"

Dali had already planned ahead, and before Old Deng could finish speaking, he revealed his own ideas.

“Okay!” Dumbledore nodded to indicate that he understood.

Then, Dudley raised his hand and once again cast the 'Soul Stealing' spell on the Horcrux on the diary on the ground.

He still didn't go all out, but controlled his power, only managing to pull out most of the youthful version of Voldemort's soul.

As a result, new damage marks reappeared on the diary horde.

This infuriated the young version of Voldemort's soul. He had just recovered somewhat and originally wanted to manifest his soul form to have a few more words with Dudley and Dumbledore, but Dudley didn't give him that chance at all.

"Love and protection!"

Dumbledore waved the Elder Wand, taking advantage of the precious moment when the soul of the young Voldemort was controlled by Dudley's Dementor and could not exert influence on the Horcrux itself, and mobilized the love power of Bellatrix, which was one and a half cans, to cast a love protection spell (abnormal love version) on the Horcrux itself.

At the same time, Dudley skillfully deactivated the Soul-Stealing Beam, releasing the soul of the youthful Voldemort.

"What's going on? What power did you use? Why do I feel like my connection to the Soul Weapon is fading?!"

Within seconds of the young Voldemort's soul returning to the diary, it created a soul avatar that appeared before Dudley and Dumbledore, angrily questioning them.

"That's exactly the effect I wanted, Mr. Riddle!"

Dali said with a smile.

Then, his palm emitted a hazy gray light once more.

This time, he didn't hold back, but instead unleashed the full power of the 'Soul Stealing' spell.

With Dudley's current legendary wizard-level magical skills, the youth version of Voldemort's soul has no ability to resist at all.

In the blink of an eye, the soul of the young Voldemort severed its last remaining connection with the Horcrux in the diary. A wisp of black smoke flew out of the diary quickly, following the hazy pillar of light, and entered the soul storage space within Dudley's body.

During this process, Dudley was highly focused, guarding against any possible attacks that might bounce off the diary Horcrux, which was enchanted with a protective spell of love.

But in the end, everything remained the same.

A diary Horcrux—no, now that the youth version of Voldemort's soul is gone, it can't be called a Horcrux anymore; it's a diary.

The protective spell of love in the diary was not triggered, and the diary itself did not show any further signs of damage.

This experiment was a great success!

Dudley and Dumbledore both smiled with satisfaction upon seeing this.

The next second, the tattered diary on the ground was lifted into the air by Dudley's Silent Levitation Charm, and then thrown into the circle that Dudley had casually drawn, entering his personal space.

This thing is useless now. Its experimental value has been exhausted, and its fusion value is gone. It can only be used as a souvenir.

Meanwhile, the soul of the young Voldemort, within Dudley's soul storage space, transformed into a handsome young human form, and had a cross-time encounter with the ghost Bella.

However, this is not a good thing.

Because Dudley activated the soul essence absorption function of the Soul Storage Space, he began to absorb the soul essence of the teenage version of Voldemort and the ghost Bella.

Dudley no longer values ​​the magical knowledge in the youth version of Voldemort's soul memories.

He had combined the wands of Voldemort and Dumbledore, and his knowledge of black and white magic was vast, so there was absolutely no need for him to waste an A-level fusion opportunity to fuse with the soul of a younger version of Voldemort.

As for the Parseltongue's abilities, Dudley had other plans and wasn't in a hurry.

That's why he chose to directly absorb the soul essence of the younger version of Voldemort.

However, Dudley slowed down the absorption rate to the minimum, allowing the teenage Voldemort and Bellatrix to endure the unpleasant feeling of weakened souls for an extended period.

This was partly to torture them, and partly because Dali was afraid he would need them later, so he decided to just let it drag on like this for now.

Compared to them, Little Pettigrew's arduous journey of redemption is nearing its end.

His soul was already weakened by torment, and its essence was greatly damaged. In just a few days, he would fall into the world of the dead behind the veil and be completely liberated.
