save the bachelors

Chapter 4171 4173 [Saving Regulus]

"If you don't want to tell me, then I'll tell you." Xiang Nan smiled and said, "A year ago, a young man, under the influence of his family and the instigation of Voldemort, chose to join the Death Eaters.

He thought Voldemort had lofty ideals, and he thought the Death Eaters were fighting for noble goals, so he was very happy and proud, and even his family was proud of him.

But when he actually joined, he found that things were very different from what he thought. Voldemort was tyrannical, murderous, cruel and vicious; the Death Eaters were selfish and deceitful. So he knew he was wrong.

Therefore, he worked hard to defeat Voldemort. He accidentally learned that Voldemort created a Horcrux in order to achieve eternal life, so he was determined to destroy the Horcrux.

Finally, after some twists and turns, he got the Horcrux and managed to destroy it. But then he found that the Horcrux had been replaced by someone else, so everything he did was almost useless.

Therefore, he had no reason and no face to defend himself, and could only choose to accept the trial of the law..."

"How do you know?" Regulus asked in surprise.

He never told anyone about what he did, but Xiang Nan seemed to have predicted it and described it in every detail.

The members of the Wizengamot Wizarding Society present were also stunned after hearing Xiang Nan's story.

If what Xiang Nan said was true, then not only should Regulus not be tried, he also seemed to be a hero who resisted Voldemort.

"Because I replaced the locket with mine." Xiang Nan explained, "Everyone, it's not easy to get this locket. You need to drink the despair potion at the risk of certain death.

It is a medicine that brings despair and pain to people, reminds them of the most painful memories in their lives that they don't want to recall, makes them feel that life is worse than death, and makes them extremely thirsty.

There is a big lake where Voldemort hid his Horcruxes, and in the lake, he placed hundreds of Inferi. Once you are thirsty and want to drink water, you will be pulled into the water by the Inferi in the lake and become one of them..."

After hearing this, everyone turned pale.

I didn't expect Voldemort to be so evil. He committed so many crimes, not only killed so many people, but also turned them into Inferi to guard his Horcruxes. He was so vicious.

"Everyone, Regulus Black has taken some detours, but he not only has a heart of repentance, but also has the courage to sacrifice and resist." Xiang Nan said immediately, "So I suggest that we give this young man a chance."

Hearing him say this, Dumbledore, the chief wizard, nodded and raised his hand, "I agree to give this young man a chance~"

With the two of them taking the lead, everyone present raised their hands one after another, and finally the majority agreed. Regulus Black thus escaped death, was acquitted, and was able to reunite with his family.

……

It was certainly a pleasant surprise for Regulus, his mother Walburga cried with joy, and even Sirius felt proud of his brother when he learned about what he had done.

He always thought that his brother was poisoned by Voldemort and was a complete Death Eater, completely beyond help.

I didn't expect him to dare to resist Voldemort and steal his Horcruxes. Although it was all in vain in the end, it was already remarkable that he had the heart to do so.

In addition to Regulus Black being released, Lucius Malfoy was also pardoned for his contribution in cooperating with Dumbledore and Xiang Nan in killing Voldemort.

But Death Eaters like Bellatrix, Rabastan, Rodolphus, Karkaroff, Evan Rosier were not so lucky. They were subsequently sent to Azkaban to serve their sentences permanently until their death.

This horrified most Death Eaters.

Although they enjoy the pleasure of life and death when torturing others, they are all cowards when it comes to themselves.

People like Igor Karkaroff, Seven Wilkes, Henry Selwyn, etc., were said to have peed their pants out of fear. Xiang Nan did not let them go either. After they were imprisoned in Azkaban, he sucked all their magic power to prevent them from escaping and endangering the wizarding world again.

……

In addition to these Death Eaters being punished, the werewolves, trolls, hags, vampires and other accomplices who assisted Voldemort also fled in all directions after the downfall of Voldemort and the Death Eaters, and were no longer as arrogant as before.

The Aurors of the Ministry of Magic did not let them go either, and have been tracking them down strictly and eradicating all the evil.

This also gradually restored peace to the British wizarding world.

……

In early 1980, Xiang Nan and Lili officially got married.

The wedding was a grand one. Almost all the guests from the British wizarding world who could come came, and those who couldn't come also sent gifts.

Among them are even gifts from intelligent creatures such as centaurs, mermen, and fairies.

Because of the period when Voldemort was rampant, the survival of these intelligent races was also threatened.

Now, Xiang Nan helped them get rid of Voldemort and saved them from the threat to their lives, so they were naturally grateful.

Therefore, they also presented their gifts one after another.

The centaurs gave him some precious herbs. They lived in a dense forest that was rarely visited by humans, and there were many precious potions there. They knew Xiang Nan was a potion master, so they gave him a large bag.

The murlocs presented some rare pearls, gems, and rare antiques retrieved from shipwrecks in the sea.

Murlocs are widely distributed in the magic world, not only in the big lake of Hogwarts, but also in other seas and waters. The water area on the earth is much larger than the land area, so the output is also very rich.

The goblin gave Xiang Nan a goblin-made crown. During the period of Voldemort's expansion, he had been threatening goblins, hoping that they would cooperate with him and pledge allegiance to him.

The goblins refused many times, hoping to stay out of the matter, which offended Voldemort and threatened their lives. So they were very happy that Voldemort was killed this time, so they gave Xiang Nan a crown made by goblins.

This crown is very delicate and beautiful, and is inlaid with beautiful gems. It can be called a perfect work of art. Xiang Nan is also very grateful.

……

At the wedding, Xiang Nan met Regulus Black and Sirius Black.

The two brothers did not come together because Sirius has not yet reconciled with his family and is still expelled from the family.

"Severus, thank you for saving my brother." Sirius thanked Xiang Nan.

"You're welcome. I'm just speaking for justice." Xiang Nan said with a smile, "In fact, since your brother has come to his senses, why don't you reconcile? Doesn't your mother forgive you now?"

At first, his mother always thought that Voldemort was right, so she looked down on her eldest son who opposed Voldemort. Sirius ran away from home in anger and was expelled from the family.

But now that Voldemort has fallen, no matter how possessed his mother was, she should have come to her senses by now. Is she still unwilling to reconcile with her son?

"Let's talk about it later. It's not so easy to change her old ideas." Sirius waved his hand.
