Trembling, he raised his hands and unwrapped the turban that had been wound around his head, which had always smelled terrible.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The moment the turban was completely thrown to the ground, the three of them discovered that Quirrell's head was actually very small.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Though not as small as a troll's brain, but it was much smaller than they had imagined.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then, he slowly turned around in place.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At that moment, Harry and Hermione nearly cried out in alarm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Where Quirrell's back of the head should have been, there was actually a face growing!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was a terrifying and hideous visage, chalk-white in color, with crimson eyes that glowed with an eerie light.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This face had no nose, only two snake-like slits for nostrils.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Without a doubt, this was the person known as the most notorious dark wizard in history, whose shadow had loomed over the wizarding world for over a decade, making wizards afraid to even speak his name to this day.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Voldemort.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sherlock frowned.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Though he had long suspected something was wrong with Quirrell, he hadn't expected Voldemort to coexist with Quirrell in this manner.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>'How to put it?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was quite undignified!'\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Harry Potter, we finally meet!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The moment he spoke, his lips immediately became twisted and crooked, making his already hideous face even more nauseating.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Harry wanted to speak, but found he couldn't make a sound.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He tried to step back, but found his legs had suddenly become uncooperative.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You are the savior of the wizarding world, the one who defeated the supreme Dark Lord, so why are you nervous?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Harry still couldn't give an effective response; the pressure Voldemort brought was simply too great.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He instinctively looked to his side and saw Hermione tightly gripping Sherlock's arm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As for Sherlock, he looked as if he had expected this all along.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He stared at the back of Quirrell's head and slowly spoke: \"Finally willing to show yourself, Voldemort?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The moment Sherlock spoke, Harry breathed a long sigh of relief.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His legs finally regained sensation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Voldemort's gaze had now shifted to Sherlock: \"It seems you guessed long ago, didn't you?

Even when I had my full power, few among my Death Eaters could match you—\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sherlock waved his hand in disgust, \"Don't compare me to your brainless followers.

The 'Supreme Dark Lord' has fallen so low as to stick to someone else's back of the head, wrapped in a turban all day. In such a dark environment, no wonder you can't grow hair or a nose, and you've made yourself stink.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Enough!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this moment, Voldemort could no longer laugh.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When Sherlock had been insulting Quirrell earlier, he hadn't minded much.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But now that the mockery was directed at him, he finally felt the sting.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sherlock's tongue was truly venomous!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Though just an eleven or twelve-year-old wizard, he was no less cutting than the most sharp-tongued Death Eater under Voldemort's command.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Potter, Holmes, we can talk,\" Voldemort said, ignoring Hermione and addressing Sherlock and Harry: \"I can see you have ambition and ability. Why confine yourselves to a small school? We could cooperate!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sherlock laughed disdainfully.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Faced with such crude temptation, he couldn't even be bothered to refute it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Harry roared in anger: \"You killed my parents!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yes, yes, I did indeed do that, but look—what have I become!\" Voldemort said in his sinister voice: \"Now I'm nothing but shadow and vapor—only when sharing a body with someone else can I have form.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Harry laughed bitterly with rage: \"And that's my fault?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As time passed, Harry gradually found his fear of Voldemort beginning to dissipate.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His mind began to work more actively, thinking about how to verify what Dumbledore had told him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He certainly couldn't just stand there and take one of Voldemort's curses.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Harry didn't realize that the Felix Felicis was already quietly taking effect.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Voldemort was equally unaware of this and continued trying to tempt them with words:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"As long as I get the Elixir of Life, I'll be able to create a new body for myself. With my powerful magic, reviving your parents wouldn't be difficult.

Before they died, they begged me to spare them—\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Harry's parents were his absolute weakness.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing Voldemort openly insult them like this, Harry's anger exploded: \"You're lying!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"How touching—\" he said in his hoarse voice, \"Courage is a very precious quality, and I've always admired brave people—yes, your parents were indeed brave back then.
