Harry Potter and the Secret Treasures

Chapter 1134: An Oath That Would Not Be Kept

“Sounds like a good idea.”

At the very least, this girl named Delphi was much more knowledgeable than Evan had expected.

It was not a reckless act for her to break into the Department of Mysteries alone. After discovering Evan and Riddle, she neither attacked nor fled, indicating she had thought it through carefully and intended to cooperate with them.

To put it simply, although this girl was only fifteen years old, he was actually quite extraordinary.

From Evan’s perspective, he would not make any Unbreakable Vow with her.

Such an oath would be very disadvantageous to him. He didn’t need a new Time-Turner; he already had the most powerful one.

Moreover, if Delphi was Voldemort’s daughter, it was obvious who she intended to save by going back in time.

Once the obstacles were removed, everything would start over.

Save her father and let Dark magic rule the world. It was a really scary idea. Evan had seen a lot of evil, and this one definitely ranked high.

The future world had not been destroyed, and everything seemed to be developing in a good direction.

Of course, this was just a possibility, and the current situation was to prevent Delphi from going back in time to change…

“What have you decided?” She stared intently at Evan and Riddle with her dark eyes, her wand trembling slightly.

She had already thought of a curse and would not hesitate to use magic if her request was rejected.

The two teenagers who appeared in the Department of Mysteries, whether Evan or Riddle, gave her a mysterious and dangerous feeling.

Evan was ready to refuse, as the Unbreakable Vow was too binding.

If communication failed, he could consider Riddle’s previous suggestion: knock her out directly and then use Legilimency or Veritaserum.

Sometimes, it might be a good idea to be more direct and rough with girls, especially such troublesome girls…Nôv(el)B\\jnn

At this moment, he heard Riddle say, “No problem, I can make an Unbreakable Vow! Let Evan be our Bonder, if this will make you feel at ease.”

Evan turned his head and looked at him. Could a Horcrux use this magic too?

Under his astonished gaze, Riddle walked over and extended his right hand to grasp Delphi’s right hand.

Delphi was also surprised. She felt that Riddle’s hand holding hers was so cold.

“Do you know how to perform this magic, my dear cousin?” Riddle asked.

“No problem, but are you sure you want to make an Unbreakable Vow with her?”

Riddle’s face was expressionless, making it difficult to tell what he was thinking.

But in Evan’s opinion, after knowing that the girl’s surname was also Riddle and she might be his daughter, it was not strange at all for him to do this.

Even Voldemort might not remain indifferent when facing his only daughter.

Moreover, this fifteen-year-old Riddle might possess the human side of Voldemort.

Anyway, even if the two of them made an Unbreakable Vow, it had nothing to do with Evan. If Riddle in front of him died from breaking the vow, Evan could assure himself that he wouldn’t feel sad at all.

Riddle’s attitude towards him had been getting increasingly hostile recently. Wasn’t he very good at pretending and deceiving people?

But just like the Horcrux in the diary, after confirming that there was no way to manipulate Evan, he directly tore off the disguise and revealed his true nature. He often mocked and ridiculed Evan, especially after the vampire incident. He truly was an annoying guy.

Evan didn’t care about Riddle’s life or death. What he wanted was to confirm whether a Horcrux could use an Unbreakable Vow.

“With the lack of trust, I think this is the only way at the moment,” said Riddle slowly.

“Alright, since you’ve decided!” Evan drew his wand.

He walked over to the two of them and placed the tip of his wand on their linked hands.

“Your turn, state the terms of the vow.”

“Okay!” said Delphi nervously. Although the atmosphere was a bit weird, things developed in the direction she expected. “Tom, you and your companion will work with me to find a Time-Turner. You must not betray me before that. After we find the Time-Turner, I must be the first to use it…”

“Wait a moment, it’s a simultaneous use. We need to go back to the past with you,” Evan interrupted. “The power of time magic is very strong, and I think proper supervision is necessary. Think about it, what if you use a Time-Turner to go back to the past and never go back? What if you change history and make both of us cease to exist?”

“That makes sense, but if I go back in time to save that person, I will definitely change history,” said Delphi

“Who is the person you want to save?”

“My father!” Delphi said simply. “He died the year I was born!”

Sure enough, her father was Voldemort.

“As long as it has no impact on the two of us, I don’t care if you change history. How about this: the three of us go back together. As long as your father has no direct connection with us, we won’t interfere with your rescue. In fact, we’ll help. How does that sound?” said Evan.

Riddle glanced at him, uncharacteristically silent.

He knew Evan was setting a trap. If Delphi went back to save Voldemort, it would be impossible for it to have no impact on them.

According to the oath, he could directly stop Delphi at that time.

Of course, Delphi was unaware of this. She didn’t know that Evan and Riddle had originally come from the past.

Not to mention, the Riddle in front of her was the very person she needed to find…

It didn’t matter how they agreed. Riddle didn’t mind, as he knew the Unbreakable Vow he made wouldn’t be effective. What he needed to figure out now was the state of his future self, to make an informed decision.

If in this future, Voldemort had already been defeated and killed, then Riddle wouldn’t want Delphi to go back and save him.

In his original plan, he intended to help Dumbledore destroy Voldemort’s main soul and other Horcruxes first.

Even though they shared the same soul, their existence was too much of a hindrance and would only cause trouble for him.

Only by destroying all of them would he truly be unique…

“Let’s go with the agreement you proposed,” said Delphi after careful consideration. “Tom, you and your companion will cooperate with me to find the Time-Turner. You must not betray me before that. After finding the Time-Turner, you can go back with me to save my father. If he has no direct connection with you two, you must not stop me. Do you agree to this? “

“I do!” Riddle said.

Instantly, a thin tongue of brilliant flame issued from Evan’s wand and wound its way around their linked hands like a red-hot wire.
