"Oh my god, even Scabbers is this scared, it must be terribly fierce. Scabbers, don't be afraid, it's just a picture in the newspaper, it's alright, and we're at Hogwarts, which is probably the safest place."
Ron comforted Scabbers, who seemed to relax slightly after being comforted.
"Can I see that newspaper?"
Voldemort's voice echoed in Tao Yu's mind.
This soul device, while its connection to the outside world was somewhat weakened by Tao Yu's Transformation Spell, still had some sensitivity.
After Harry finished reading the newspaper, Tao Yu picked it up, holding it with a hand wearing a bracelet, letting the soul device look at it.
Tao Yu could sense that this fragment of Voldemort was reading attentively, which felt slightly amusing.
"Seems like this is someone quite important among the Death Eaters, one of Voldemort's most loyal," Tao Yu remarked to the soul device almost as a final blow.
