101- Contribution to the treatment

    Rhys waved his left hand, and the mud on the ground rose into the air, forming a large sphere around Quirrell''s body, completely containing the explosion''s shockwave within the ball.

    With his right hand, he beckoned to Voldemort''s fleeing soul, and Voldemort suddenly felt the air around him become viscous, pulling him uncontrollably towards Rhys.

    He was utterly disenchanted: he no longer had a physical body, so how could that monster still restrain him?!

    If Rhys knew Voldemort''s thoughts, he would surely smile and say: Without a body, don''t you still have magic? Indeed, I cannot easily manipulate the magic within your soul, but I can use the interaction between magical forces to "retain" you with the magic under my control.

    In this area, unless you have neither a body nor magic, you will always be within his control and influence.

    Voldemort was thus gradually pulled back towards Rhys.

    Now, Voldemort appears as a dusky yellow phantom, with a grimacing face occasionally emerging from it. Rhys could hear its indistinct, incomprehensible howls.

    He ignored Voldemort''s howls and focused on studying the nature of the entity before him. Unlike Harry and Daphne, Rhys knew very little about him. He didn''t even know this was Voldemort—he only knew that the main villain was Quirrell and the entity on the back of Quirrell''s head.

    However, to Rhys, who this thing didn''t really matter. He wasn''t particularly concerned about it.

    After studying for a moment, Rhys saw through the essence of Voldemort.

    "Foolish thing." After seeing through Voldemort''s nature, Rhys couldn''t help but make a sharp comment.

    The yellow phantom in Rhys''s hand makes even louder noises.

    "No form, just a shadow and some vapor, even less than a ghost or a wandering soul. What meaning does such immortality have? You people who make Horcruxes, do you even deserve to call yourselves immortal?" Rhys''s face showed a hint of disdain. To him, these wizards who achieved immortality through Horcruxes had simply lowered the prestige of the term "immortality."

    Although Rhys didn''t think much of the Voldemort fragment before him, it was still a piece of a soul and could be useful.

    A bold idea formed in Rhys''s mind.

    He thought that this soul fragment might help with Ravenclaw''s "illness."

    Ravenclaw''s problem was that her soul had been polluted from staying in the depths of the seal for too long. Rhys''s initial treatment plan involves using potions to wash away the "dirt" attached to her soul. He had prepared several types of potions: some might loosen the bond between the pollution and the soul, some could fuse with the pollution to strip it away, and some could directly purify the dirt.

    The core difficulty of this treatment plan is that the insane Ravenclaw will likely not cooperate. The cleansing of the soul is painful, and even if she didn''t have a high desire to fight, she might instinctively attack the healer.

    Rhys''s task was akin to pulling a decayed tooth from a strange lion without anesthesia.

    With this soul fragment, the difficulty will be reduced. He could directly merge the fragment with Ravenclaw''s soul, letting the fragment absorb the pollution. As for whether the fragment would in turn corrupt Ravenclaw''s soul, Rhys thought that was overthinking it—he didn''t hold the fragment in high regard.

    Rhys had a new treatment plan.

    Looking at Voldemort in his hand, Rhys''s lips curled up slightly. He really had to thank this gentleman for his outstanding contribution to Ravenclaw''s treatment.

    And the specific content of the contribution?

    Who said being used as a medicinal ingredient doesn''t count as a contribution?
