Hogwarts: Wizards of Eternity

After ten years of silence, the former Dark Lord returned to England from distant Albania, near Greece. His primary goal was to restore his power.

Having once commanded the Death Eaters and turned the British wizarding world upside down, he was well aware of the situation.

There were indeed Death Eaters who were loyal to him, but more were opportunists, pure-blood families seeking to achieve their political goals through him, and black wizards with no bottom line who wanted to loot in the chaos.

If these latter three types of people discovered his current weakness, they would definitely not offer help in his time of need!

After his downfall, the group scattered. Some of his original subordinates were arrested, some died, some went into hiding, some defected and tried to cleanse their names, and some were even undercover agents from the start... He had seen it all.

Haha, wizards are truly skilled actors.

Even Voldemort sometimes couldn't distinguish who was truly loyal and who was the next sleeper agent waiting to be triggered.

Voldemort didn't bother to distinguish.

He only knew one thing: as long as he regained his power, everything would return.

Opportunists, families with ulterior motives, and black wizards seeking only profit—as long as he could raise his banner again, those who liked to act as henchmen would gather around him like hyenas, forming a massive force, waiting for him to lead them on the next...

Hunt!

As long as he could remain strong and continue to win.

Whether his subordinates were truly loyal or just pretending to be respectful and greedy... Did it matter?

Heh heh, they were all loyal subjects.

So, after getting the information about the Philosopher's Stone, Voldemort began his plan.

If he succeeded this time, it would save him a lot of trouble.

But alas, he was one step short, and he missed the most promising opportunity.

Opening the vault at Gringotts, he found it empty. The Philosopher's Stone had already been taken.

But he could still find traces. The Philosopher's Stone was currently at Hogwarts!

Voldemort also knew that the useless wizard he was possessing was already being watched.

Severus Snape had once been his subordinate. His abnormal behavior was almost a clear indication to Voldemort.

But it didn't matter.

People only suspected Quirrell had a problem. Even if they guessed that Quirrell wanted to get his hands on the Philosopher's Stone, it wouldn't matter much.

Because since they suspected Quirrell, the security measures would only be maintained to the level of guarding against a professor who taught Muggle Studies last year and suddenly switched to Defense Against the Dark Arts this year.

As long as he was careful and didn't reveal that he was actually Voldemort.

It would actually make things easier for him.

...That's how it should have been.

But life is always full of surprises that Voldemort hated.

A Seer!

After decades, the world actually produced another powerful Seer who could make accurate future predictions multiple times!

And this Seer was going to enroll at Hogwarts this year and be in close contact with him.

Merlin have mercy!

Although he still had many Horcruxes and many opportunities to resurrect, no one wanted to die once if they could avoid it.

In the days after the start of school, he was on edge, ready for the worst.

But in the end, he found that he seemed to be scaring himself.

Nothing happened at all.

Of course, this didn't mean he was safe. After all, with a Seer, who knew when their brain would suddenly spark and they would do something unexpected.

After deciding that there shouldn't be any problems in the short term, Voldemort ordered Quirrell to continue to pay attention to the Philosopher's Stone, while he himself wanted to probe the depths of this Seer.

He didn't know until he probed, and the probe really made Voldemort discover a lot of problems!

Voldemort made a judgment by observing Roger's learning and spellcasting during class breaks.

This newly enrolled little wizard's mental power was actually much higher than many Death Eaters!

It was just that his skills in using magic were too immature, and he had learned too few spells. Otherwise, just his current spellcasting intensity would be enough to make him one of his fierce generals.

And his learning ability was also very outstanding.

He seemed to have already established a rudimentary system of magical cognition belonging to him, had a high degree of control over his mental power, and could quickly master spells.

And he was very willing to put himself out there. He would stop the professor after class to ask about anything he didn't know in detail, and sometimes he would go to the professor's office to ask about his questions.

...According to the little Seer, most of the questions he asked were outside of the textbook. Asking them in class would take up the students' learning time, and the professors had a duty to teach, so naturally he had to go to them for answers.

Asking after class was just right.

And most of the professors welcomed Roger's questions.

On the one hand, their qualities as teachers were good, and they didn't dislike studious students. On the other hand, who wouldn't want to have a good relationship with a Seer who might become a guiding light at a crucial turning point in their life?

Shuttling between many professors and the library every day, this little Seer was like a sponge, frantically absorbing the nutrients of Hogwarts.

Voldemort could feel that he was growing at an alarming rate every day. Voldemort believed that Roger would soon advance his magic level to the height it should be given his mental strength.

And this was definitely not the end point.

He was only 11 years old!

What was his strength when he was 11 years old?

He still had a very long growth period. As long as he didn't die prematurely, when he reached his age, then the strength of this Seer...

Unimaginable!

And what made Voldemort even more frightened than this 'monster' parasitizing on Hogwarts and growing crazily under his own eyes was another thing.

As everyone knows, Roger is a little wizard who often thinks about problems.

For example, for classes like History of Magic, where the teacher was completely a textbook reading machine, which was not as good as self-study, and some classes where the teacher was talking about content he had already learned in advance, he would immerse himself in his own world, thinking about those difficult problems he hadn't figured out yet.

What exactly was he thinking about?

For this question that many people had been curious about, Voldemort's choice was to have Quirrell ask. Anyway, it was a normal thing for a professor to ask a student who didn't focus on the class what he was doing, and it wouldn't arouse suspicion.

And Roger's answer was: "Immortality."

Roger didn't go into detail, just saying that he was researching related topics.

But his words stirred up waves in Voldemort's heart.

Immortality?

Was this something a first-year Hogwarts student should be researching?!

If Roger was really researching immortality, then in Voldemort's cognition, it was really a bit outrageous.

And if he was lying...

"Is this little Seer hinting at me?" Voldemort, clinging to the back of Quirrell's head, frowned.

In modern times, who was the most famous wizard pursuing immortality?

Besides Nicolas Flamel, the creator of the Philosopher's Stone who had lived the longest on the surface, being over 600 years old, wasn't it himself?!

For a moment, feeling a little unsure of Roger's meaning, Voldemort planned to explore the information more deeply.

At this moment, he happened to see Harry Potter having a small conflict with a friend... It was really coincidental.

And in Harry Potter's eyes now, the person who really made him feel uneasy was Snape.

When he looked in Snape's direction at the opening feast, he suddenly felt a bad feeling, and Snape was also inexplicably targeting him madly in Potions class.

"Heh heh heh, Potter (emphasis) with nothing but a reputation..." Harry sometimes dreamed of that voice.

The hatred that Snape had earned through his own abilities made Harry ignore Quirrell, who was sitting next to Snape at the opening feast.

Because Quirrell was still a trustworthy professor in Harry's eyes, he naturally didn't mind telling Quirrell everything he knew about Roger.

"Roger..." Harry pondered for a moment. Although he didn't reject the idea and thought Roger was a good person, he decided to filter out the other students' prejudices against Roger and only say good things.
