Sean's Plan
Back then, the Riddle Soul Fragment hidden in Nagini's body invaded Sean's Soul World. After that, he gained a lot of knowledge about Dark Arts. Sean was a little confused at the time. Although Tom Riddle was a master of Dark Arts, it was impossible for him to only have mastered Dark Arts. Why didn't he gain other knowledge or the like?
Of course, now it can be explained clearly—the ' Pride ' within Sean, which has not yet fully awakened, has hidden all the knowledge in Riddle's Soul Fragment except for Dark Arts.
To be precise, that part of the knowledge and the slumbering Soul Fragment of Riddle's soul remained bound together. Sean went fishing with the help of Felix Felicis, and ' Pride ' attempted to corrupt Sean with negative emotions. Perhaps through some ability of itss, Soul Fragment of Riddle's soul were mixed into the negative emotions as 'ingredients'.
The result is what it is now. As a pure dark force, the Obscurus will not be corrupted, and it even dismantled Riddle's last relics for Sean.
How to deal with ghosts is one of those pieces of knowledge.
Ghosts are not Magic Creature; they are more like a manifestation of souls in the real world, a kind of 'brand'. Aside from being able to come into contact with a little water, ghosts lack the ability to physically interact with things in the real world—which is why the Ghostly Horned Serpent was so difficult to deal with; it could influence the real world.
To deal with a ghost, you basically have to work on its soul. However, ghosts are generally harmless to wizards, and no one would bother to invent a spell.
Fortunately, Riddle was clearly very knowledgeable about the soul, and among his other research products was this spell.
Nihilo Intuor (The Nihilo Intuor)
This spell is cast on oneself. After use, the caster can concentrate their willpower to solidify the soul. This spell has limited lethality against wizards, but it can freeze ghosts.
After freezing the ghost, the killing spells that affect the soul can take effect. Although the effect will be greatly weakened, as long as you cast enough spells, you can completely erase a ghost from the real world.
Sean suspects that Riddle got the spell inspiration from the Basilisk.
This method of eliminating ghosts is actually extremely cruel, because wizards believe that after a person dies, their soul goes to the Underworld, and death is just the beginning of another adventure.
Those who died as wizards, whether out of fear or attachment, chose to remain in the real world as ghosts. They are caught between the realms of the living and the dead, unwanted by either side and unable to go anywhere.
When you eliminate a ghost, whether it is a decaying body or a wandering soul, that person will completely disappear from the world. He/she will no longer go to the Underworld, and there will be no trace left in this world.
This is nothingness in the truest sense.
However, these things were not within Sean's considerations; he was currently pondering why Gormlaith Gaunt had come out of the Chamber of Secrets.
Her goal was to eliminate wizards of Muggle blood, a task that should obviously be left to the Basilisk, who should have remained hidden in her Chamber of Secrets.
Felix Felicis gave him a hint to confront Gormlaith alone. Was it to catch her or to obtain information?
It's strange...
But Sean still planned to go up to the second floor, quite confident in himself. After all, Gormlaith Gaunt was just a ghost; the real threats to him were the Basilisk and the Ghostly Horned Serpent.
Therefore, Sean specifically instructed the Cat-Leopard Pudding in his ring to keep it safe. When Mr. Wallop delivered a large number of chicken coops, Sean also stored more than a dozen chickens in his own ring.
Pudding, at his instruction, was trying to scare the roosters away, and the ring kept echoing with the roosters' frantic crowing.
Dave the Swooping Evil was keeping a close eye on the spider box that Sean kept close to his body. As soon as the spider inside showed the slightest sign of something amiss, Sean would open the ring, and the roosters would rush out all at once.
The Obscurus acts as another alarm bell. As Magic Creature born of pure power, the Obscurus is unaffected by the illusion of the Ghostly Horned Serpent. If Sean is unknowingly controlled, the Obscurus riot and awaken Sean.
After giving his friends some instructions, Sean took out a mask.
That was the purple item I won in the Lottery Draw: the mask of Nymphadora Tonks.
Once he uses this item, he will have the ability to Tonks Metamorphmagus within an hour.
Sean put the mask on his face, his face contorted, and his slightly curly black hair became smooth and sparse, the color gradually turning towards a light gold.
He transformed into Draco Malfoy.
As a fervent Pure-blood believer, Gormlaith Gaunt should have some understanding of the Malfoy Family. These Pure-blood families generally have some connection with each other, or rather, most Pure-blood families need to intermarry to ensure the 'purity' of their bloodline.
They have always believed that every Pureblood Wizard is noble and rare, and they often easily reach a consensus that Mudblood should be eliminated.
This was Sean's plan: to gain Gormlaith Gaunt's trust by acting like the young master Malfoy.
It sounds incredible, but that's the reality of the Wizarding World. Pureblood Wizard have always believed that their own interests are of paramount importance.
Many Slytherin students would be honored to work with the Heir of Slytherin.
Regardless of Gormlaith Gaunt's motives, Sean always manages to find out some information.
His ring trembled, revealing an opening. Sean reached in, and the Wampus Cat inside leaped up and handed him a bag.
That was a complete set of Slytherin house uniform.
As someone who enjoys playing tricks and has plenty of money, Sean always comes prepared—he not only has Slytherin, but also Gryffindor and Hufflepuff uniforms.
Sean even prepared Snape's black robe, Dumbledore's gorgeous robe, Grindelwald's high-necked trench coat, Newmontgard's suit uniform... and so on.
It wouldn't cost much, so it wouldn't hurt to prepare a little more—that's what Sean thought.
After quickly changing into Slytherin's uniform robes, Sean, now in Malfoy's likeness, moved his face slightly, raised his chin, and then raised his eyebrows, mimicking Malfoy's arrogant, haughty, and punchable demeanor.
He filled the bag with Galleon, strode out of the broom shed with his head held high, and headed towards the second-floor washroom amidst the clinking of the coins.
