Global Abyss: My Skills Can Enhance Infinitely

Chapter 1899: Chapter 1041: Stacked Troubles (2)

"Oh my god, even Scabbers is this scared, it must be terribly fierce. Scabbers, don’t be afraid, it’s just a picture in the newspaper, it’s alright, and we’re at Hogwarts, which is probably the safest place."

Ron comforted Scabbers, who seemed to relax slightly after being comforted.

"Can I see that newspaper?"

Voldemort’s voice echoed in Tao Yu’s mind.

This soul device, while its connection to the outside world was somewhat weakened by Tao Yu’s Transformation Spell, still had some sensitivity.

After Harry finished reading the newspaper, Tao Yu picked it up, holding it with a hand wearing a bracelet, letting the soul device look at it.

Tao Yu could sense that this fragment of Voldemort was reading attentively, which felt slightly amusing.

"Seems like this is someone quite important among the Death Eaters, one of Voldemort’s most loyal," Tao Yu remarked to the soul device almost as a final blow.

"Indeed, he looks like a thoroughly evil wizard," the soul device responded earnestly.

He only had memories up till he sealed himself here, and didn’t even know of his future achievements, so naturally, he was completely unaware of Sirius Black.

But with the Prophet Daily dedicating its front page and such extensive coverage, with exaggerated descriptions, it must be true.

For a moment, the soul device also fell into contemplation.

He could actually feel Tao Yu’s talent and strength. Although he coveted this perfect body, the other party was already cautious, which might make it difficult.

A Transformation Spell could influence Ravenclaw’s crown and also limit his external senses. Resisting with just this residual soul might be hard.

He needed to find a reliable ally, or perhaps use the body of a loyal subordinate...

...

The impact of Sirius Black’s escape was greater than expected.

Azkhaban seeing its first prisoner escape was a significant failure for the Ministry of Magic.

Although the Minister of Magic wrote at length in the Prophet Daily about a swift capture, even notifying the Muggle world’s government, a sense of fear had spread in the magical world.

If this Death Eater, second to none, were to call out, would those Death Eaters of the past gather again?

This matter also stirred a lot of gossip among the little wizards.

While dining together in the great hall, Malfoy was there boasting away.

"Sirius Black, I know him, the Black Family is a noble pure-blood wizard family, my mother is from there too, so technically Sirius is my uncle."

Malfoy seemed rather proud of this.

For the Slytherin students, they still adhered to pure-blood theory. Although many feared Voldemort, they only feared his cruelty and power, agreeing with many of his ideals.

This aspect was quite different from the other houses.

Therefore, as a pure-blood wizard family, the Blacks did not arouse much repulsion, rather there was a heroic tale-like feeling.

"Oh, they’re discussing that prisoner, and feeling so pleased about it."

Ron whispered his complaint.

Just then, a letter from an owl came and landed on Ron’s head.

This left Ron a bit stunned as he opened it.

"Why did mom send me a letter?"

Ron mumbled as he opened the letter, which contained some advice, reminding him to stay with Harry and not wander off, staying in the school every day, as Black might be targeting Harry.

This reminder startled Ron, and he screamed,

"Black is targeting Harry!"

Then they realized, Harry was the culprit who caused Voldemort’s downfall, and Black seeking revenge on Harry made perfect sense.

On the other side, Malfoy also heard the shout, and let out a mocking laugh,

"Ah-ha, it seems you finally figured it out; it’s likely that Black is out to go after our Savior."

Finishing with an animated face, he then noticed Tao Yu beside him, his expression froze, and he composed himself,

"I wasn’t talking about you, Tao Yu."

"Oh, no, I still have to train for Quidditch."

Harry appeared somewhat disheartened at this point.

He had displayed outstanding flying talent in flying class and discovered that his father, James Potter, was once an excellent Seeker for Gryffindor, and was eager to showcase his skills.

"If it’s just Quidditch training, it shouldn’t be a big issue," Tao Yu said with a smile.

"Your detention is over, we can cheer for you during practice."

Regarding Sirius Black, there is considerable potential for gaining reputation, with room for numerous twists and turns.

Bringing Ron and Scabbers, plus the Voldemort soul device on himself, was enough to make it big.

This month, in seeking guidance from the professors, most of them recognized his abilities.

Perhaps they wouldn’t think he could surpass Sirius Black, but with so many senior Quidditch players together, there was a safety factor.

"That’s great, actually you ride a broom quite steadily, don’t you have any thoughts of joining Quidditch?"

Seeing Tao Yu willing to watch him train, Harry looked pleased and then curiously asked.

"Not for now."

Tao Yu had thought about gaining reputation in Quidditch, but with the Quidditch World Cup not yet happening, just the school competition didn’t seem necessary.
