Chapter 301： Quirina Schillo's Story

Chapter 301 The Story of Quirina Schiro

The severe winter is leaving Devon in March. The temperature is getting warmer, the snow is beginning to melt, and sprouts are growing on the muddy and difficult ground, and the earth is rejuvenated.

A young man in a windbreaker appeared without warning, stomping his young teeth back into the soil with one foot, and he walked slowly towards the house not far away.

Amidst the creaking sound, the door of the house was pushed open.

"It seems that we need to find time to repair it." The young man murmured. He went straight to the kitchen, hung the damp trench coat on the hanger by the fireplace, pulled out the wand in his pocket, and re-lit the fire.

A small black snake came out of the pocket of the young man's windbreaker and came to the fireplace to warm up.

Now, it is not time for the snake to wake up from hibernation, but the young man has no good way, because he prefers to be possessed by the snake rather than the mouse.

This young man is called Quirina Schillo. Not long ago, I just returned to the UK after traveling around the world, and I am currently planning to go to Hogwarts to apply for the Defense Against the Dark Arts professor.

This time, Quirrell didn't come back alone, he was beside him.

Or rather, a snake.

The man possessed by the little snake has had many names: the one who can't even mention his name, the Dark Lord, or... Voldemort.

Yes, the famous Voldemort.

Of course, in order to show his deference, Quirrell kept calling him Master, which is what the Death Eaters call the Dark Lord.

Although Quirrell has never liked such a title, he needs to make himself look respectful, at least on the surface.

At this moment, Quirrell is trying to learn more magical skills from Voldemort to ensure that he will never be a laughing stock again.

He sat on the armchair, looked at the fire in the fireplace, drank a big mouthful of black tea, the flames danced in his eyes, just like his current emotions.

Everything is different.

Once, Quirrell, who was still a student at Hogwarts, was very weak and was always ridiculed and teased by other students. He was tired of being like that and vowed to change everything.

Soon after graduation, Quirrell hoped that he could be qualified for the position of professor of Defense Against the Dark Arts. He knew that many people were afraid of this profession because of the rumored curse, but Quirrell felt that it was nonsense and thought he could overcome the so-called curse. Curse, let everyone look at him with admiration.

However, Dumbledore did not immediately agree to Quirrell's job application, but suggested that he travel around the world to gain more knowledge, and then go to him when he comes back.

During these years of traveling around the world, Quirrell gradually became interested in black magic. Of course, it was only in theory, but he soon realized that the theory of black magic was as ridiculous as he had imagined himself to be an awesome dark wizard.

Finally, Quirrell began to fantasize that he could track down Voldemort and even learn more magic skills from him.

He changed the purpose of his trip and went to the Albanian forest. It is said that Voldemort is hiding in this forest, but no one knows whether this is true.

However, to Quirrell's surprise, he really met the legendary Voldemort. The famous Voldemort can only be forced to live on some small rodents, which is quite weak.

In Quirrell's view, this is ridiculous. He also realized that his fantasy might come true. After Voldemort persuaded him to become a member of the dark forces, Quirrell expressed the hope that he could learn more magic skills from Voldemort, and in exchange, he could help him recover his body .

As expected, Voldemort agreed to the deal.

This made Quirrell complacent, thinking that the legendary Dark Lord was nothing more than that, thinking that he had the ability to control Voldemort.

As long as he can learn the other party's superb magic skills, he can definitely become an impressive and powerful wizard, instead of being insignificant like many people. He is tired of being ordinary, tired of being despised and ridiculed, he wants to become an existence that everyone looks up to, like Dumbledore and Voldemort.

As for Voldemort, the down-and-out Dark Lord, at that time, he was just a bargaining chip that could be discarded at will, and he could even hand it over to Dumbledore.

While traveling, Voldemort did teach him many magical skills, but Quirrell sadly found that he could only master a small part of them, but these were enough to make him a powerful wizard.

In the next round of the world, Voldemort has been with him.

The two sides occasionally chatted about some things. Although Quirrell dismissed most of Voldemort's words, he had to admit that some of the other's words were indeed true.

There is no right and wrong in the world, and he is called the Dark Lord by the world, and he only uses violence in the process of fighting for power.

Voldemort never thought that he had done anything wrong. People without power and power were just incompetent, and incompetence was a sin.

This made Quirrell feel the same way.

When Voldemort promised himself to master the Ministry of Magic, he would leave Quirrell with his due position as a reward for helping him recover his body.

At that moment, Quirrell was tempted. If Voldemort was his backer, everything would be different again.

From then on, Quirrell began to accept Voldemort's guidance and execute the other party's orders. It is undeniable that the dark wizard's behavior has benefited Quirrell a lot.

Voldemort also told Quirrell many secret things, including the fact that the legendary alchemist Nicole Flamel was still alive, and the existence of the Philosopher's Stone that can make people live forever.

He told Quirrell that he needed the stone to ensure immortality, and Quirrell would get a lot of gold as a reward.

With the help of Voldemort, Quirrell spent a lot of time and finally found Nicole Flamel's residence in Paris, France. However, the other party seemed to be aware of their prying eyes and kept hiding in the safe house, failing to let them succeed.

Soon, Dumbledore came, and Quirrell never dared to show his face, but hid himself behind by controlling Muggles to monitor Nicole's residence.

However, something that depressed Quirrell happened again. With the help of Dumbledore, Nicole Flamel disappeared without warning.

Quirrell and Voldemort took a lot of effort to find the clues again. Nicole Flamel settled in Devonshire, and the place where he lived was protected by the Fidelity Curse. They couldn't find him at all, and the secret keeper was Dumbledore .

Quirrell has been monitoring Nicole Flamel's house for a long time, occasionally meeting Dumbledore who came to visit him.

The other party has also discovered his existence, but it is not sure who it is.

When Quirrell and Voldemort were considering how to get the Sorcerer's Stone, the situation changed again. It is said that the Sorcerer's Stone may be hidden in Gringotts.

This is the result of his torture of a goblin.

It is not easy to steal the Sorcerer's Stone from Gringotts, and Quirrell still needs to confirm whether the news is true, because Dumbledore already knows that someone is eyeing the Sorcerer's Stone, and it is likely to set a trap for him .

Moreover, the defense of Gringotts is very tight, and almost no wizard can steal something from Gringotts and get back unscathed.

Quirrell sadly found that he did not have that ability. Voldemort seemed to think so too, and was trying to train him to be a qualified helper.
