• Tom asked Li Weide to let him enter the scene and kill Voldemort because his future self’s humiliation made him furious.

Li Weide and Tom defeated Voldemort’s newly restored body, while Dumbledore received a way to revive Cedric and information about Voldemort’s Horcruxes. As they waited for Dumbledore to destroy the remaining Horcruxes, Tom’s remarks made Li Weide wonder whether another version of himself might be a villain.

After Voldemort’s defeat, Li Weide revealed that he had helped end a rebellion by powerful Werewolves and Vampires, then cured Remus Lupin with a new antidote and offered Severus Snape a chance to study its formula.

• Li Weide bought an emerald crystal from the System Shop, absorbed the memories in a notebook stored inside it, and awakened the Law of Space.

As the new era took hold, Grindelwald struggled with the sudden flood of school-age wizards, and Dumbledore asked him how Hogwarts should choose its students.

Meanwhile, Li Weide tested a spatial experiment with Tom, revealed he had concealed his true strength from the Death God, and prepared Tom to become a backup hope against an unknown threat.

• Tom deduced that the existence was the Death God, and Li Weide told him he was a hidden move who could become the world’s hope if Li Weide fell.

Li Weide hid in a sunless space with Tom after revealing the Death God’s threat and arranged for a powerful clone to impersonate Tom outside. Li Weide then traveled alone to a distant Parallel World to secretly repair the system, but found its people still fighting with primitive tools.

• Li Weide told Tom that the Death God had warned of a coming Great Hell, and Tom realized Li Weide was building strength to prepare for it.

• Li Weide learned that Ravenclaw had healed plague-stricken villagers, but the lord had turned them against her by spreading rumors that she caused the plague.
• Li Weide explained that saving people or walking away was a personal choice, and described safer ways Ravenclaw could have helped the villagers.
