Chapter 447: Take Regulus home
Chapter 447 Taking Regulus Home
Sirius finally let go of Kreacher and stood there blankly, as if he was under the Imperius Curse.
Lupine stepped forward and patted Sirius on the shoulder, "He is a true Black and a well-deserved Slytherin. His name deserves to be praised by everyone."
Kyle sighed silently beside him and said nothing.
From his point of view, Regulus made his decision from the beginning, and he never thought about coming back alive.
Perhaps it was because the ideal he had always adhered to was shattered. When he decided to part ways with Voldemort, the outcome was already doomed.
Voldemort is a master of Legilimency, and I believe Regulus is well aware of this. He is not sure that he can hide the fact that he stole the Horcrux.
This means that once what he has done is discovered, he will bear the wrath of Voldemort, and not only him, but also the rest of the Black family and Kreacher, no one can run away.
So he chose to sacrifice himself to keep this secret. Only in this way can more people survive.
As for Kreacher, with Voldemort's character, it is impossible for him to care about a house elf. Maybe he would have forgotten about that humble creature when he left the cave.
Sirius covered his face and cried uncontrollably, tears dripping down his fingers and onto the floor.
He had misunderstood Regulus for more than ten years, and it was only then that he realized that his younger brother was not weak, and was even braver than him.
Hold up to die in order to kill Voldemort, even in a place where almost no one would ever set foot, even if no one would ever know about it...but he did it anyway.
Sirius couldn't imagine how Regulus made this decision at that time.
His mother was right, Kreacher was right, and those people were right. Regulus was really much stronger than him.
"I want to take him back!" Sirius touched the wet tears on his face, "No matter what, I have to take him home... He should go home, not stay at the bottom of that cold lake!"
"Kreacher!" he suddenly shouted loudly: "I order you to take me to the cave, and together we will take Regulus home!"
Originally, the elf was lying on the ground, breathing heavily. After hearing Sirius' words, he stood up immediately, shaking all over, his eyes red and bloodshot from tears.
"Kreacher...Kreacher is willing to obey the master's orders!"
“Then let’s go…”
Just as Sirius was about to grab Kreacher's arm, Lupine suddenly appeared between them.
"Wait, wait Sirius." He said quickly, "We can't be so reckless. It's best to inform Dumbledore first."
Kreacher raised his head and looked at him resentfully.
"Don't get me wrong, I have no intention of stopping you." Lu Ping explained and continued: "But it is too reckless to go like this. Don't forget, that is where the mysterious man hides his things.
Furthermore, Kreacher also said just now that the things under the lake...if my guess is correct, they should be inferi, and there are at least several hundred of them.
If you want to find Regulus, you must alert them... Can you deal with hundreds of unkillable and powerful monsters? "
Lupin's words finally made Sirius calm down a little, but only a little.
"I don't care, Remus." Sirius said seriously: "I can't throw Regulus alone at the bottom of that cold lake. Every second here is the most painful torture for me. , this kind of pain even exceeds that of Dementors.
Remus, I know you are right, but I don’t want to wait any longer... As long as I can bring Regulus back, I don’t care even if I die there. "
Lupine looked at him, and after a long time he sighed and took a step back, "Okay, I respect your decision."
“Thank you, Remus,” Sirius said. “You can write to Dumbledore after we leave. I think he will find it there.”
“Okay.” Lupine nodded.
“Thank you.” Sirius reached out to grab Kreacher.
But at this moment, without warning... Lupine raised his wand.
“Fainted to the ground!”
Lupine's idea was simple. Since he couldn't be stopped, he should be knocked unconscious and **** until Dumbledore came. However, Sirius seemed to have guessed what he was thinking. He turned into a **** dog in an instant and escaped the sneak attack.
Then he immediately changed back and turned to look at Lupin.
“I know you too well, Remus,” he said. “Don’t you think I didn’t see it? You subconsciously held the wand hand just now.”
"No matter what you say." Lu Ping simply stopped pretending, "I can't just watch you die. As long as I'm still standing today, you can't go anywhere!"
“I don’t think so.” Sirius smiled slightly, “I’m sorry, my friend.
“Kreacher, what are you waiting for!”
The elf immediately came to him and reached out to grab his arm.
"Xiao Tian…"
Before Lu Ping could finish speaking, there was a loud bang, and he was the only one left in the huge room.
…
the other side.
Sirius felt like the world was spinning for a while, and when he opened his eyes again, he smelled a salty air.
He found himself in a huge cave, surrounded by the sound of the roaring waves of the sea.
“House elves don’t travel well.” A voice came from the side.
"Yes." Sirius replied subconsciously: "And I haven't apparated for a long time...wait a minute."
He looked at the familiar person next to him with disbelief in his eyes, "Kyle? Why are you here!"
"Of course I came with you, otherwise." Kyle shrugged, "Didn't you notice that when you and Lupine were arguing, I had already put my hand on Kreacher's arm."
"But...but..." Sirius hesitated for a long time, and finally turned to look at Kreacher.
But Kreacher was also a little confused at the moment. His attention was focused on the two people arguing just now, and he didn't even notice that there was another hand on his body.
"No, Kyle, it's too dangerous here. You can't come. Go back!" Sirius said seriously.
"What you said is wrong." Kyle shook his head, "If I wanted to go back, why would I follow you in the first place? It doesn't make sense, right?"
"but…"
"And Lupine is right." Kyle ignored him and continued: "You came here so recklessly. You can't do anything except add another life. We should inform Dumbledore."
"I know!" Sirius said, "But even if I send an owl to Dumbledore now, he won't be able to come until dawn at the earliest. I really can't wait that long."
“Who said that?” Kyle sighed and took out a long, fiery red feather with a pained expression.
Then he clicked it with his wand, and the feather immediately turned into a short flame.
Sirius's anxious eyes were filled with doubts.
"This is the tail feather of the phoenix." Kyle explained: "The phoenix is a very magical animal. It will take the initiative to pluck out its tail feathers and give them to people close to it. When that person needs the help of the phoenix, he only needs to burn the tail feathers. I'll arrive in time...oh, here I come."
Kyle raised his head, and suddenly there was a red fireball in the originally dark sky.
is Fox…
Appearing with it was Dumbledore wearing pink strawberry pajamas and a pointed nightcap.
