"A spell left behind by Slytherin?"
A thought flashed through Elwyn's mind, and clues began to appear one after another.
Without a doubt, Salazar Slytherin had once possessed this ring and the Lifestone.
He was also very proficient in crafting soul tools, a spell created by the despicable Hylbo.
Considering Slytherin's experience, it could be said that no one in this world knew more about this spell than him.
Because of Elwyn, Salazar Slytherin already knew about the existence of Lord Voldemort.
At the same time, he also knew that his descendant, possibly the last descendant, would eventually become an evil Dark Magus and create soul tools.
When all these factors were combined, things were no longer as simple as they seemed.
With Slytherin's personality, it was hard to imagine that he would do nothing and leave everything to Elwyn and Dumbledore.
Just like the other three founders, he left a secret treasure for Elwyn.
Especially since Elwyn was not a pureblood, which was what he hated the most …
Slytherin might have predicted that Lord Voldemort would find this ring, so he used the characteristics of the Lifestone to leave a spell inside and split Riddle's soul to help him create a special soul tool …
This idea suddenly appeared in Elwyn's mind. The more he thought about it, the more likely it seemed, but it was also a little unbelievable.
The biggest problem was how difficult it was to do this. For normal wizards, this was like a fantasy. It was impossible to do.
However, with Salazar Slytherin's ability, this was not a problem.
To him, it was not a problem. The key was whether he wanted to do it or not!
Although there was no direct evidence, Elwyn was sure that Slytherin would not give up on this opportunity.
Following this train of thought, assuming that this magic was left behind by him, he used the characteristics of the ring, the Resurrection Stone, and the Soul Vessel to split the soul of Riddle, or more accurately, the soul of his descendant, who fulfilled all the conditions he left behind, to help this descendant create a Soul Vessel.
The possibility of this happening was very high. The question now was, what was his purpose in doing this?
Slytherin wouldn't simply help his descendants create Soul Armaments and help them become more depraved and evil. He must have his own motives.
In other words, the fifteen-year-old Tom Riddle in front of this soul vessel was extraordinary.
Elwyn could not tell what was so special about this fellow. In his eyes, Riddle was just a youth with a bad personality and was extremely dangerous. He was good at disguising himself and seducing others. He was no different from the one he had met in the diary.
Perhaps the only difference was that he was not that evil, because he had never killed anyone …
Perhaps, he didn't do it not because he didn't want to, but because he didn't have the chance.
Before he could kill his own father with his own hands, he would have already been split.
In a way, Salazar Slytherin had indeed saved him.
Was this Slytherin's thought process to save his descendants before their fates began?
After a brief silence, Dumbledore asked calmly, "Tom, after you became a soul tool, what happened?"
He didn't know if Elwyn had thought of these things before, or if he had an idea that was closer to the truth.
"You know it all, don't you?" Riddle said, a smile appearing on his face again. "After I split, he woke up again. Then, according to the plan, he used that wand to kill that man without hesitation and framed …"
"No, I mean what he was thinking at that time. What was he thinking at that time?" Dumbledore said.
"Thinking?!" Riddle was stunned for a moment, his eyes slightly widening as if he was puzzled by Dumbledore's question.
"That's right. Was it pain, sadness, or excitement?"
"I don't know!" Riddle said honestly. "I don't know what he was thinking."
"As far as I know, there is a connection between the soul tool and the main soul," Dumbledore said. "You can definitely feel his emotions."
"I've never felt this way before." Riddle's face showed an expression of reminiscence. He shook his head slightly. "There's nothing to hide. I can't wait to draw a line between us so that you can let me go. In short, after my soul split, I could no longer feel the feelings and thoughts of the main soul. In other words, although we are the same person, we are two completely different souls with independent thoughts. In this aspect, I have no relationship with him at all. This is also one of the things that makes me different from other soul tools. There must be a problem with the magic of the Grim Reaper. That's not the normal way to make a soul tool … "
Elwyn frowned. This was indeed strange. It was one of the things that made this guy different.
According to his research on soul tools, the soul fragments in a soul tool were split from the main soul. They possessed all the memories, feelings, and thoughts of the main soul. They moved according to a specific path and had a connection with the main soul. They could feel each other.
Because of this, Harry could use the soul fragments in his head to know what Lord Voldemort was thinking.
Because Lord Voldemort had split his soul too many times, his main soul had become extremely chaotic. Unless under special circumstances, he no longer had the ability to communicate with other soul tools. However, as the number of soul tools decreased, he would discover it sooner or later.
It could be said that regardless of whether it was the main soul or the soul fragments, they were all the same main body. The only difference was the main and the secondary.
However, the Riddle in front of him and Lord Voldemort were two completely different main bodies. This was very unusual.
If there was no such connection, would he still be a soul tool?!
To verify this, the only way was to destroy all the soul tools and Lord Voldemort except for him.
If he was still alive, it would prove that he had completely separated from the main soul and had no relationship with Lord Voldemort.
To achieve this would be too difficult, dangerous, and uncertain. From Elwyn's point of view, it would be better to just destroy him.
According to the original plan, he would defeat Lord Voldemort bit by bit. This unexpected change would not happen.
He looked at the focused Dumbledore and sighed.
He could be sure that the principal would not do this.
As long as there was a one in ten thousand possibility, he would try to save Tom Riddle and find out the truth.
Of course, this was under the condition that everything was still under his control. If things were out of his control, he would definitely destroy this soul tool without hesitation.
"Very strange. What were your thoughts at that time?" Dumbledore continued, "After seeing your mother, and when he killed your father with your own eyes?"
"No special thoughts. I was eager to do so. That man deserved it," Riddle said.
"Very good!" Dumbledore seemed to have gotten the answer he wanted and did not continue asking.
