Chapter 44: Voldemort was killed by a gamma ray cannon

Murphy: "2077, August 6. Acid rain. Strange things happened today. A wanderer wanted to snatch my diary. He hit me, I was very angry, and then, his hand... was twisted off. I didn't see anyone, his hand was suddenly twisted off by something invisible. I was very scared, so I ran. I heard that guy call me a wizard bastard..."

"I'm almost ten..."

"I don't want to die..."

"I don't want to die..."

"I don't want to become a wizard..."

Diary: "..."

Now he already believes that something must have happened to this world.

The writer—he/she seems to be about the same age as himself, but the despair in those words is that even if he can't read minds, the diary can feel it.

He seems extremely afraid and resistant to becoming a wizard.

Is it because of the situation mentioned in the previous diary?

In the environment he is in now, becoming a wizard means death?

How could it be?

Did a new witch-hunting movement happen?

Murphy: "2077, September 7. Strange things happen one after another. Yesterday I was so hungry that suddenly a superior's flying car had an accident and almost crashed, and his burger fell at my feet."

"Today I met a mutant rat. I thought it was going to attack me, but I seemed to hear it talking. It said it was very painful, there was something on its stomach, and I pulled out that wooden stick for it. It thanked me and left."

"I recognized that wooden stick... I have seen it in my mother's box."

"Wand!"

"That's a wand!"

"Just picking it up, I understood that it was a wand, which once belonged to my mother, mother's mother, and then came into my hands."

"I am a wizard!"

Diary: "..."

This guy is actually a wizard!

Then he was able to discover himself, which should not be a complete coincidence.

It's just that a wand has been passed down for three generations.

The wizards of this world should have a very bad life.

Murphy: "2077, October 10. Failed, no matter what, I can't use magic like the wizards in the video materials!"

"I understand, the spells in those movies are all fake. Arasaka Company couldn't have put real spells in their promotional movies! I'm so stupid!"

"I have been having chest pains recently and often have nightmares."

"In a dream, I saw my mother again. She looked at me sadly, and then she turned into a black monster. The monster screamed wildly, killing everyone around... then I saw the armed helicopter of the 'Witch-Hunting Unit', I saw the fire god cannon spitting fire, I saw the flash of the prism laser..."

"I remember. My mother didn't die of illness."

"She was killed."

"And I, too, will be killed. Because I am also a wizard. They will find out I am a wizard during my mandatory test at sixteen, and then shoot me into a sieve. And I can't even make any decent resistance."

"Because, I don't even know a spell!"

Diary: "..."

Black monster.

Obscurial?

His mother was an Obscurial!

In such a witch-hunting era, wizards dare not show magic, and it is very normal to become an Obscurial.

But the "Witch-Hunting Unit" of the Muggles can easily kill an Obscurial!

The Muggles of this world might be even more terrifying than he imagined.

Diary hesitated whether to respond.

If he doesn't respond, this little wizard who writes a diary is dead.

Maybe he can reach a deal with him, so that he can be resurrected through him?

But what about after resurrection, the Muggles of this world are so terrifying, can he handle it?

To be honest, he was a bit scared by what this guy wrote.

He wrote about nuclear bombs before, right?

Diary doesn't know what a nuclear bomb is, but being able to blow up tens of thousands of tons of smoke and dust is much more terrifying than any Muggle bomb he has heard of. Even if he makes a hundred Horcruxes, he probably can't withstand that kind of attack, right?

The Muggles of this world are too insane!

More insane than the Muggles who hunted witches in the 16th century!

Murphy: "2077, November 19, night. The flow of time is getting weirder and weirder. Today it was dark all day."

Murphy: "2077, December 1. A wizard broke into Night City!!"

"This wizard is very powerful, more powerful than all the wizards described by Arasaka Company! Even more powerful than those evil wizards in the movies!"

"He used a fire magic and burned Arasaka Tower!"

"The Witch-Hunting Unit couldn't beat him either! He shot down more than a dozen helicopters!"

"He used a very powerful magic and pierced the dome!"

"A dozen wizards seemed to be his followers, and they all broke in."

"His voice suddenly appeared in my ears! He said he was the Wizard King, he was coming to rescue all the wizards imprisoned by Muggles, he said he would lead wizards to establish their own country again, so that wizards would no longer be persecuted by Muggles!"

"I was so excited that I cried, I hoped he could defeat Arasaka Company, defeat Military Technology and City Management Company, and best of all, kill them all! Avenge my mother! Avenge those dead wizards!"

"I remembered his name!"

"He said, his name is Voldemort!"

"Voldemort! Wizard King! Savior!"

"He and Arasaka Company's army engaged in a fierce battle. I listened to the roar in the distance by the window and couldn't sleep. I prayed for his victory."

Diary: "!!!!"

Voldemort!

Me?!

Wizard King? Savior?!

The title of Wizard King can be understood, and it even fits his ambition relatively well.

But Savior?

I, Tom Riddle, Voldemort, became the Wizard Savior?

Uh... sounds like...

Not bad?

However, before he could be happy for his future self, he saw a new diary entry.

Murphy: "He is dead."

Murphy: "Voldemort is dead."

"Last night, Arasaka Company dispatched more than a hundred armed helicopters. Those wizards died one after another. Voldemort annihilated many helicopters, but a gamma ray cannon pierced his defense. He was evaporated."

"Our Savior is dead."

Diary: "!!?"

I am dead?

What is a gamma ray cannon?

Those helicopters can kill Obscurials, and he killed more than a hundred helicopters, but was still killed by a cannonball?

From these records, his future self is already very, very strong, at least killing a hundred Obscurials is no problem.

Whether he can be fifty times stronger than his current self is hard to say, but fifty times stronger should be more than enough.

But Muggles are still stronger than him.

No wonder the wizards of this world are so miserable.

Maybe I should just not go out.

Murphy: "2077, December 3. They found Voldemort's Horcrux."

Diary: "!!!!????"
