Hogwarts: Tom is not the Dark Lord

The shock on Dumbledore's face turned into pity, his eyes flickered, as if he was thinking about the enforceability of this school rule, "Well... this... is not good..."

‘Brush la la’

The bookshelf in the principal's room shook. Under the influence of a certain dark wizard, many books broke free and flew towards Dumbledore, as if they were burying the principal alive.

Twitching the corner of his mouth and waving his hand, Dumbledore looked at Tom's scarlet eyes strangely, wondering what the little wizards had done.

"call...."

Using Occlumency to suppress his irritable mood, Tom closed his eyes and rubbed his temples, "Third grade students don't even know the Howling Curse..."

"If they were willing to go to the library, they would find this spell and it would be easy to master... but no one knows this spell..."

"No one... Dumbledore, am I too strict with my requirements?"

Smacking his lips, Dumbledore silently grabbed a handful of cockroaches and carefully checked whether there was anything explosive inside.

"Perhaps... you have to know that not everyone has the same talent as you, Tom... your understanding of ordinary wizards is somewhat biased."

After frowning and reflecting for a second, Tom shook his head with disapproval, "I never have high expectations for others, but..."

"After reading one third of the book collection in seven years, there is plenty of time...Don't you think so? Remembering that knowledge...is not difficult."

Rolling his eyes almost to the back of his head, Dumbledore took off his glasses, rubbed his sore eyes and sighed helplessly, "If it were the students of Slytherin and Ravenclaw..."

"I'm sure they will be happy to listen to you, but not many will accomplish this goal, Tom... This kind of school rule is very harmful to students..."

"Especially for Gryffindor students, it's not friendly..."

With a cold snort, Tom knocked on the cup and filled himself a cup of coffee, "You are prejudiced against Gryffindor."

"Do you really not want to see someone pull out a sword in this life? Or... do you want the person who can pull out the sword to be an empty-headed reckless man?"

"Ah~ Could it be that you personally think...Godric Gryffindor himself...is such a person!~"

"Fart! This is slander!!"

Dumbledore slapped his hand on the table, gasping for breath, he...he never thought of it that way!

At least I didn't think so before being beaten by a giant squid...

"Well, even if this school rule is really added, aren't you worried that students will have a rebellious attitude towards you? After all, you are now a popular professor~"

Tom put down the cup, wiped the corners of his mouth gracefully, and put on a perfect fake smile again, "You're right, I'm just a professor..."

"Making school rules... is a decision that only the principal can make~"

Dumbledore:............

Ha... my heart is so 'dirty'...

The day before the exam week came, disgusting school rules were written on the wall in the corridor of the auditorium.

‘From now on, all students studying at Hogwarts are required to read one book outside the curriculum every week and submit two parchment papers to their respective deans. ’
