After unlocking the magical traps with Parseltongue, the house that ought to be called "Voldemort Manor" revealed the grandeur Riddle House had once possessed.
The signs of decay vanished from the picture frames lining the corridor. However, the paintings within them were remarkably uniform and monotonous, all depicting the Dark Mark.
Dumbledore noticed it as well. Glancing over the framed Dark Marks, he said, "It's clear that he was very pleased with the Dark Mark he created."
Wizet continued to wave his wand, examining the surroundings as magical ripples spread all the way to the end of the corridor.
After conducting such an examination, he could not help but smile. "Professor Dumbledore, the magical traps Voldemort set here are more interesting than the ones he arranged in the cave."
Dumbledore also used his wand to inspect the area. Hearing Wizet say this, he smiled and nodded. "I have the same feeling."
