Hogwarts becomes host

"What the hell is this thing?"

After a period of quiet contemplation and recollection, Sirius wiped his face, apologized to Kreacher with red eyes, retracted the words he had insulted Regulus at the beginning, and praised him and Kreacher, saying that they were brave masters and servants. .

This made Kreacher stunned. Even though they had a bad relationship, being praised by a member of the Black family was enough to make Kreacher excited to the point of explosion. After reacting, he began to kowtow and hit Hermione's bandaged wound again. Cracked open, Sirius quickly stopped his new form of self-abuse.

Then, Sirius seemed to want to vent or make up for his regrets. He immediately proposed to destroy the locket, which was unanimously agreed, so everyone left Elaine's room and went to the basement dedicated to practicing magic.

Daphne did not stay to sleep with Elaine, but she also did not let Elaine stay alone in the room to rest. Instead, she used a floating spell to take her away along with the bed.

“There’s something wrong with this”

Sirius slammed the locket to the ground, as if hoping to break it.

Of course the locket was fine, so he cast a series of spells on it.

"I fainted on the ground, my strength was relaxed, my strength was released, and I disappeared without a trace. The thunderous explosion curse stopped immediately. My body was shattered into pieces. All my bones were petrified. The original form appeared. The Alajo cave opened and was torn into pieces. Your weapons were destroyed. The flames were blazing. Oh no, the clear water was like a spring."

The furious Sirius even used some small curses such as scorching heat, tarantella, etc. Harry and Ron also tried hard to cast all the spells they had learned, but even if they tried their best, The locket was still undamaged.

Hermione felt that it was useless to continue like this, so she asked Nott to bring a lot of books, trying to find something useful from them-the origin of the locket or a powerful spell, no matter what.

"All these spells should be thrown on Elaine." Ron said breathlessly. "I seriously suspect that she already knows everything, but is too lazy to tell us."

"Then you have to deal with Daphne first." Harry sat down on the ground a little exhausted. His magic power had been exhausted. But seeing Kreacher's disappointed eyes, Harry gritted his teeth and raised his wand again, ready to try again. .

Daphne sat elegantly on the edge of the bed. Like Hermione, she gave up after a few attempts. But Hermione was at least still looking at the book seriously, while Daphne just sat there thoughtfully, curling her fingers from time to time. Play with Elaine's hair.

"Okay, everyone." After another ten minutes, seeing that Sirius was about to turn into a dog and bite the locket, Daphne finally said, "It's useless to go on like this. I suggest that we go to bed early and set off for Huozhou early tomorrow morning. Gwartz.”

"Why do you want to go to Hogwarts?" Sirius kicked the locket bitterly and asked, "Dumbledore is not there, damn thing."

Harry and Ron collapsed on the ground from exhaustion. Their magic power was exhausted and they couldn't even lift a finger, let alone talk and waste their exhausted energy.

"But the Sword of Gryffindor is there," Daphne explained. "I guess it's the same diary we saw last Christmas, and Elaine destroyed it with the Sword of Gryffindor."

"What," Hermione exclaimed, "you mean that thing is the Dark Lord's Horcrux?"

"Horcrux" Sirius asked, tilting his head and thinking for a while. "I seem to have seen this word somewhere, what is it?"

Daphne didn't respond, but gave Hermione an accusing look, and Hermione smiled awkwardly.

She didn't forget that Dumbledore asked them not to tell anyone, but subconsciously

"That's a black magic tool used to save lives."

Sirius was answered by the phantom of Adair, who suddenly appeared.

But everyone present was used to him being like this, so he didn't scare anyone.

"It doesn't matter if you know it. It's not a secret in the pure-blood family anyway. Just don't tell anyone. I'm really curious."

After briefly introducing the Horcrux, asking Sirius to swear an oath and ordering Kreacher not to tell anyone, Adair turned around and asked Daphne.

"Why do you think it's a Horcrux? With your ability, you shouldn't be able to see through the magic on it."

"A very simple inference." Daphne replied calmly, "What could it be that the Dark Lord tried so hard to hide? When I saw the logo on it, I just thought it was a simple souvenir, or something left by Slytherin. It’s a symbol, but shouldn’t you have to carry this kind of thing with you?”

"Bloodline is his heartache. He has this locket and there is no reason not to carry it. Hiding it means that this thing is more important than face. I can only think of two things about this, knowledge or soul. Think about it. To size, I think souls are more likely.”

"Not bad." Adair nodded with satisfaction. "Because of this, you can't destroy this thing now. We'll wait until Dumbledore comes back."

"We must wait for him to come back," Sirius shouted dissatisfied. "Since it is such a dangerous thing, why not destroy it earlier? You must know other ways. This belongs to Regulus──"

"I've been waiting for more than ten years, so what if I wait for another ten days?"

Adair interrupted Sirius directly.

"It's not like destroying this thing will kill the Dark Lord. It's no big deal if you're three weeks late. If you feel guilty or unwilling and want to do something, just strengthen yourself or increase the power of Potter and the others. No You can’t do anything with strength.”

"Shafiq"

"Don't make me repeat it a third time. The rest will be dealt with when Dumbledore comes back." Adair looked at Sirius mockingly and smiled. "Besides, if you want to retrieve Regulus yourself, I won't stop you from recovering one corpse. It's no different from two corpses, right?"

"I'm not as stupid as you think." Looking at Harry who was worried, Sirius said angrily, "I can afford to wait until the end of the month, but don't change the time again."

"When did I change the time?"

"Anyway, don't delay"

"You should say this to Dumbledore." Adair told him, "He is the only one here who can crack the Dark Lord's method. In short, during this period, please train Potter and others well. Let me remind you, and Compared to Elaine’s strength, you guys are just lagging behind now.”

"Humph"

"Sorry, what to do with the locket?" Daphne found an opportunity to change the subject, lest Sirius really jump up and fight with the phantom, "Such a dangerous thing."

"There's a chain up there for Elaine to carry. You guys take turns keeping it."

"Personal carry" Hermione shouted worriedly, "That's a Horcrux"

"Yes, because of this, it can test your will better - don't worry, this thing is different from that diary. As long as Potter doesn't speak Parseltongue and open it, it won't control you."

"What if your inference is wrong?" Ron struggled to ask. "If we are controlled"

"That means you didn't study Occlumency seriously." Adair grinned, a very refreshing and bright smile. "If you don't care so much, you might as well die, so as not to hinder us in the future."
