Abraxas·Malfoy stared at him for a long time before showing a rare sincere smile.
"Sure enough, you are really interesting. My name is Abraxas·Malfoy, and I am the heir of Malfoy family. I hope we will have better communication in the future... Today is not my home court. The dean will come soon... This banquet should be the core gathering of Slytherin. You have now completed the first step. I hope you will go well next..."
He reminded in a low voice, seeming to have a good impression of Tom.
Tom slightly retracted his chin, then continued to take two steps forward, "Thank you..."
When he finally stood closer to the middle, Tom finally stopped completely.
At this time, male and female Prefect also stood up and came directly in front of Tom.
He began to introduce loudly, "Welcome to Dream Tea Party of Slytherin... This is a place where only the purest Slytherin can be invited to enter. You can see everything you imagine here--"
"Power, wealth, the unseen Dark Magic, and those lost treasures..."
"As long as you think about it, you have the opportunity to see it. However, what you want to take away from here depends on your ability..."
"As Slytherin, we will never wait for charity from others like the weak Hufflepuff. We will always get everything we want through our own hands..."
"So, what are your demands? What do you want, and what can you provide?"
Male Prefect's question came unexpectedly.
Originally, this should not be the place he should come now. Everyone who comes here for the first time needs to show their worth. Only by being recognized by others can they stay here. Otherwise, they can only leave in despair...
Therefore, invitations here usually only start in the second grade.
But because Tom has always been outstanding and unsociable, they chose to come here for testing.
Faced with the wizard's questioning, Tom was not at all panicked. He even deliberately showed his desire for advanced Dark Magic, "... What kind of Dark Magic can you get here?... My family has been..." When he talked about home, he was deliberately vague. This performance made many Slytherin feel relieved.
After all, as a little wizard, there is nothing wrong with being curious about Dark Magic.
Although their family always refused to let them come into contact with Dark Magic prematurely, they had been studying it for a while in private.
As for this kind of research that does not exceed the limit, their family does not really prohibit it too much.
This stage of first grade is when they are particularly curious.
Therefore, Tom's performance at this time is exactly what they imagined.
Male Prefect looked at a boy standing aside who had been leaning on a pillar and gave him a wink.
The boy also came directly behind him, took out his wand, "Vera Verto!"
He summoned a wooden chair in the corner, and then Transfiguration turned it into a metal basin.
After that, he took out a skull from nowhere and threw it in. The next second, "Phosphorus Fire Burn!"
The next thing I saw, a bunch of flames suddenly rose from the skull. It was not the normal orange-red, but a rich and evil dark green.
Flames shot out from the skull's eye sockets, like a poisonous snake, circling in a circle and then piercing through the open mouth again.
The whole process seemed extremely weird.
Moreover, Tom also noticed that the places where the flames passed through had different degrees of corrosion. This kind of flame is very dangerous!
This knowledge can be easily obtained.
The boy said very proudly, "This magic can be used as a greeting gift, as long as you can pass the test to prove yourself..."
"This Dark Magic has been screened and can easily ignite bones. It can also continuously corrode skin and flesh. More importantly, it will continue to spread until the enemy is burned to ashes..."
At this time, Tom thought of a magic trick.
"Same as Fiendfyre?..."
He asked doubtfully?
But after hearing the name Fiendfyre, the two people in front of him also stiffened.
The female Prefect not far away almost laughed out loud, and even Malfoy couldn't help but frown when she heard this.
The expression of male Prefect was very embarrassing, "Don't be kidding, how can Phosphorus Fire be compared with Fiendfyre? It can be extinguished by water, and it can also be controlled by many spells. More importantly, it is not as completely destructive as Fiendfyre..."
"Have you noticed that Phosphorus Fire is actually a kind of corpse fire... It usually targets corpses... However, if you have enough understanding of corpses, its power will not be too weak..."
The flames acting on the corpse seemed to have suddenly dropped in intensity.
However, being able to act on corpses is not useless at all. It is estimated that many wizards who study curses will learn this kind of magic. You must know that curses are very dangerous, even on corpses.
This flame, which can deal with corpses, must be very effective in this regard.
Also, the shape of the flame makes Tom a little concerned, snake?
Is it possible that the original developer of this flame has something to do with snakes? He can't be Parseltongue...
Just after seeing the scene just now, he wanted to learn this magic.
"... That's okay, what do I need to do?"
There was a bit of regret in his tone, but he still decisively accepted the conditions here.
The male Prefect finally opened his fangs at this time, "I heard that you have a good relationship with Professor Herbert, so you must have some talent in Herbology, or your family may have some capital in this area... We happen to have a new Potions genius here who wants to practice, and we are short of a batch of Snakebone Grass, can you help?"
Snakebone Grass--This kind of magic plant is rare. They can only grow in places where there is a lot of death, and if they want to mature, they need to be watered with snake blood.
Generally speaking, this plant is almost extinct in the wild.
They are basically grown on a small scale in various botanical gardens.
He made this request obviously because he wanted to see how Tom would handle it.
In fact, in his opinion, this requirement is not harsh at all. If he is rich, he can buy Tom with a lot of money. If he is powerful, he can also let a small family who is good at plants ripen one plant. The same goes for having extensive connections.
If these are ordinary, he can also use the relationship with Professor Herbert, and there must be some in that professor's greenhouse.
There are many ways to solve it, but Tom chose the method with the most barrages.
If I remember correctly, Snakebone Grass is the core material used to refine a very special Feigned Death Potions. This Feigned Death Potions is also one of the signatures of a family present...
What a coincidence is that the heir of that family is the second-year chief who had a strong opinion against Tom...
So, Tom walked up to him decisively, "One Snakebone Grass, as a bet, let's have a fair duel!"
"If I lose, then I will give up my position as chief!"
Tom's voice was heard by everyone present, and the whole hall was in an uproar!
The second-year chief didn't expect that Tom would have such courage, or maybe he looked down on himself too much.
He followed Tom's wishes and sneered, "That's not enough. If you lose, I'll make you kneel down and apologize to me!"
"As payment for offending me!"
"Deal!" Tom agreed without any hesitation!
The smell of gunpowder suddenly became stronger at the scene.
