A surge of darkness flooded through me — a tidal wave of power that threatened to rip apart every cell in my body. Tom Riddle's memories slammed into my mind: his brilliance, his cruelty, his ambitions, his fears… all of it became mine. Every spell he perfected. Every secret he unearthed. Every victory and every mistake.
I gasped, clutching the arms of the chair beneath me.

A quest screen slid into view:

I let out a sharp laugh — half exhilaration, half disbelief.
"Why am I getting Dark Lord templates back-to-back?" I muttered aloud. "Does this system want me to become some kind of evil witch goddess?"
But then I paused. My lips curled into a slow smirk.
Evil witches… evil queens…They are usually the hottest.
And if the universe wanted to hand me that crown?
I would wear it beautifully.
