Riddle was about to explode with anger, staring at Kyle with his red eyes.

Even when he was called a monster in the orphanage, he had never hated anyone so much.

But now this person shows up.

He was the heir of Slytherin, Riddle was absolutely sure of it.

That Kyle... How dare you say he's a fake! Riddle desperately stretched out his spell...

"Avada Kedavra!"

A green light flew by at high speed, but Kyle was prepared and hid behind a pillar in advance.

"God's sword has no shadow!"

This was what Kyle had learned from the book Advanced Potion-Making, which Snape had memorized in its entirety when he was young, so it wasn't difficult to learn.

Riddle did not dodge or evade, and even showed a hint of sarcasm at the corner of his mouth.

The Divine Edge Shadowless Spell passed through his body as if it was hitting the air, without any pause, leaving only a thin black line.

And this black line disappeared very quickly.

"It's useless." Riddle laughed. "Your spell can't do any harm to me... Avada Kedavra!"

Another green light.

Kyle quickly retreated behind the pillar.

"Do you think you can escape?" Riddle walked over step by step, "You must die. Even Dumbledore can't save you!"

The Divine Sword Shadowless Spell is useless...

Kyle was a little helpless. If you can't win, just turn on the technology, right? This is too bad.

He thought of the diary at the feet of the statue.

Unfortunately, the distance was a bit far, and it would take at least five or six seconds to run over there. But as soon as he showed his head, a killing curse would be cast, and he couldn't get through at all.

But at this time, the basilisk slowly crawled out of the mouth of the Slytherin statue.

Kyle originally wanted to let it bite the diary, but after thinking it over carefully, he gave up... With the intelligence of the basilisk, it would probably be difficult for it to understand what a diary is.

"Kill that impostor!"

"Kill him!"

They both shouted at the same time.

Riddle originally held on to a glimmer of hope, thinking that since he had controlled the basilisk several times before, he might be able to play the emotional card by taking advantage of the familiar face.

It was not until the basilisk turned its head without hesitation that he was completely in despair.

"Bang!"

This time Riddle really exploded, turning into a black mist, and his wand fell to the ground.

But soon, the black mist condensed together again.

Although the basilisk's gaze can directly affect the soul, Riddle is still a Horcrux. As long as the diary is intact, he will not die.

"Idiot, I am your master, the true heir of Slytherin!" Riddle shouted, "I have always been the one commanding you, it's me!"

But the basilisk didn't care about all that. Seeing that the little bean in front of it was still alive and kicking, it bit him directly on the head.

The next second, Riddle exploded again.

"Bang,"

"Bang!"

"Bang……"

In the following time, the secret room was as lively as if firecrackers were being set off.

Relying on the fact that he could not die, Riddle had no intention of hiding at all. He kept speaking snake language, trying to regain control of the basilisk.

Until he accidentally saw Kyle pick up the diary at the foot of the statue...

Riddle's pupils shrank suddenly, and a terrible guess popped up in his mind.

"He knows he's a Horcrux!"

Once this idea came out, I could no longer stop it.

Especially after seeing the smile on Kyle's face, Riddle panicked.

He no longer focused on the basilisk and quickly picked up the wand on the ground and pointed it at Kyle.

"Avada Kedavra!"

"Thunder explosion!"

…

Being in such a hurry, the spells were naturally not very accurate and Kyle dodged them easily.

All of Riddle's spells ended up landing on the Slytherin statue at the back, blasting a large hole in it.

A large number of small animal bones and snake skin fragments fell out of the cave.

"Tsk... look at what you've done."

Kyle teased: "You don't even respect Mr. Slytherin's statue, how can you say you are his heir..."

Riddle turned a deaf ear to Kyle's ridicule. He now only wanted to kill Kyle and get the diary back.

Fortunately, Horcruxes are difficult to destroy, so even if they fall into Kyle's hands, it doesn't matter, he still has time.

"Avada..."

Just as Riddle was about to cast the spell again, a pair of yellow eyes suddenly appeared in front of him.

"Bang! Snap..."

Riddle exploded again.

"Wands are flying!"

Ron's wand bounced twice on the ground and flew straight into Kyle's hands.

At this moment, a chaotic sound of footsteps and voices suddenly came from outside the secret room.

"Here, Potter... come... open..."

The voice was soft and intermittent, but it must be Professor McGonagall.

Kyle also heard Harry's name.

Perhaps the professors guessed that the entrance would need to be opened in Parseltongue, so they called in Harry, who also spoke Parseltongue.

Anyway, it's about time.

Looking at the constantly twisting black fog, Kyle shook his head and recalled the basilisk, ready to let it bite the diary and completely end the incident before the professor came in.

He has violated quite a lot of school rules this time. Hopefully he can be deducted a few hundred points less later... But there's a good chance that the basilisk can't be saved.

However, Kyle did not notice that just as he was about to put the diary on the basilisk's teeth, a golden object fell out of the hole in the statue behind him.

The thing was round and looked like a golden pocket watch, but the difference was that it had five hands.

"despair……"

The pocket watch fell to the ground, causing the five hands on it to move simultaneously.

In an instant, the basilisk that had just opened its mouth began to fly backwards rapidly, and Ron's wand returned to Riddle's hand. The bones and rubble on the ground retreated back into the statue. Three spells flew from behind towards Riddle's wand and sank into the tip of the wand...

Time is going backwards.

Except for Kyle, everything around him was moving backwards rapidly.

It all happened so fast.

When Kyle came to his senses, he found that the basilisk was gone, Riddle was gone, and there was no Professor McGonagall's voice outside...

He was the only one left in the huge secret room, with the diary in his hand.

"What's going on...what happened?"

Kyle looked at the empty secret room blankly, feeling like he was dreaming.

Could it be that Riddle also has a time-turner?

But that's not right. If time is going backwards, why am I not affected...

Could it be that he was really dreaming?

Just like the previous few days, everything I saw was fake, and he was actually still sleeping in the school hospital?

Kyle touched his thigh and pinched it hard.

It hurts so much!

This seemed to mean that he wasn't having a bizarre dream.
