I added points to my talents at Hogwarts

Chapter 99 The Locket

After Hermione had bandaged Kreacher’s wound, Sirius asked again:”So you brought the box home, and did you try to destroy it?” The house elf had a knot wrapped around his bare forehead. There were circles and circles of white gauze. Hermione’s skills were not good, which made him look a little funny.

But Kreacher seemed very happy about this. He bowed respectfully to Hermione before explaining:”After Kreacher returns home, no matter what he does, he must not leave any traces on it.……”

“Kreacher tried every method, every method he knew, but none of them… none of them worked… There were too many powerful spells cast on the box.……”As he spoke, he choked up again,”Kreacher was sure that the way to destroy it was to break it from inside the box, but he couldn’t open it.……”

“Kreacher punished himself, he tried to open it again, Kreacher failed to carry out the order, Kreacher could not destroy the box! And the mistress went crazy with grief, because Master Regulus was missing, and Kreacher couldn’t tell her what happened in the cave. No, Master Regulus forbade…forbid him to tell…anyone in the family… Man Mountain…anything that happens in the cave……”

Forbidden to tell anyone in the Black family, all eyes were on Sirius.

Sirius snorted coldly,”Obviously after I was expelled from the family tree, I was not within the scope of this order.”

“Did Regulus tell you what exactly is in this box? He looked at Kreacher again.

Kreacher shrank his neck and shook his head vigorously,”No…no, Master Regulus didn’t tell me anything else…his order was just for Kreacher to destroy the box.”……”

Seeing that he couldn’t find any other useful information, Sirius finally let the poor house elf go.

He looked at Avis, who was holding the locket tightly in his hand, and wanted to take the locket from his hand.

Ivis slowly shook his head,”Sirius, there is something weird about this locket. I think it is better to let Professor Dumbledore handle it.” Slytherin

‘s locket should be a Horcrux made by Voldemort in his heyday. Just holding it, Wes felt as if his brain was being invaded. Fortunately, he knew Occlumency, so he was not affected by the locket.

If someone else had held it, Ives couldn’t guarantee whether there would be a problem.

Seeing his resolute attitude, Sirius gave up and said,”Then I will write a letter to Professor Dumbledore now.”

Ivis stopped him and took out a phoenix tail feather from his pocket. , slowly injecting magic into it.

The next second, a ball of flame appeared among them, and a big red bird walked out of the flame and appeared in the room.

As soon as Fox appeared, he flew close to Ives’ shoulder and rubbed his cheek affectionately.

“Fox, please inform Professor Dumbledore and ask him to come to No. 12 Grimmauld Place.” Ives looked at Fox’s eyes and explained,”There is something very important, so he must come here.”

Fox heard the seriousness of the matter from his tone, and immediately turned into a ball of flame and disappeared from everyone’s sight.

Immediately afterwards, Dumbledore suddenly walked out of the flames that reappeared.

“Avis, what’s wrong?”The semicircular glasses on the bridge of Dumbledore’s nose shone with a cold light, and he asked in a serious tone.

After being together for so long, Dumbledore also figured out Ives’s

personality. If it was not an important matter, he would not let Fox come. He was informed. So after getting the news from Fox, he put down all the work at hand and hurried over

“Professor,” Ives handed him the locket and reminded,”be careful.”

As soon as he took the locket from the young man’s hand, Dumbledore frowned.

He took out the Elder Wand and pointed it at the weird box. A trace of magic escaped from the tip of the wand, slowly Wrapped around the locket.

Others in the room held their breath subconsciously. Dumbledore was obviously using magic to detect the secrets on the box.

After a while, Dumbledore’s brow slowly relaxed, and his eyes It was full of surprises, but he did not explain what he found, but asked:”Can anyone tell me where this thing came from?”

Sirius slowly told what happened, while George and Fred filled in the details for him.

“Regulus Black,” Dumbledore read the name word by word, his eyes were very complicated,”I still remember that child, who was gloomy and didn’t like to talk to others. Later, he was like most Slaters. Lin’s students chose to join Voldemort”

“But I didn’t expect……”He sighed, just as Gryffindor House would have a traitor like Peter Pettigrew who betrayed his friends; Slytherin would also have a hero like Regulus Black who treated house elves well and resisted Voldemort.

Maybe the format of teaching in Hogwarts is wrong, Dumbledore said with a twinkle in his eye. He had been thinking about this matter since the Sirius case retrial.

Although the Sorting Hat can identify a person’s characteristics to ensure the accuracy of the sorting, how could an eleven or twelve-year-old boy or girl not change as they grow up?

Now is not the time to think about these things. Dumbledore returned to the matter in front of him. He smiled and said,”You are doing the right thing. This box involves an important secret of Voldemort.”……”

Everyone was expecting him to tell the secret, but Dumbledore ignored it with a mischievous wink.

“……I finally see hope of defeating him completely.” After saying that, he said seriously:”Don’t tell others about the locket.”

Everyone nodded wildly. George and Fred even put their hands in front of their mouths and made a zipper gesture.

Dumbledore nodded with satisfaction, then looked at Sirius,”Sirius, Regulus’s body should be Still in that cave”

“……”Sirius was a little stunned,”Yes, that’s right, Regulus was dragged into the lake by the Inferi, so he will definitely be transformed into an Inferi!”

Puppets like the Inferi will not corrupt, so, Even after all these years, Regulus’s body should be well preserved.

“I can’t let his body stay there!”Sirius said anxiously. He wanted to go to the cave immediately to bring Regulus out.

Kreacher, who was listening to everyone silently, had tears in his eyes, and said equally anxiously:”Master Regulus, Kreacher Must go to save Master Regulus……”

With that said, he was about to apparate back to that place, and the others stopped them both after talking hard.

Dumbledore’s face was solemn,”Sirius, in two days I will take you with me after the matters at hand are resolved. Now, please exercise restraint.”

Sirius and Kreacher reluctantly agreed.
