Hogwarts Homecoming

The war in the hall stopped briefly. The Aurors removed the magic barrier and took advantage of this short truce to take a breath. Both Errel and Selina came to Sirius, and Amelia also came close. , several people were looking at Graves, who exuded a sinister and evil aura.

"Something's wrong-"

Ariel said in a solemn tone, while Selena and Amelia both nodded in unison.

Sirius also had a solemn expression on his face, he knew what Uriel meant.

Although I don’t know much about Truck Graves, the changes in Graves between before and after are too obvious, as if he is a different person.

Although Graves, who had just told them the past, was a criminal who had committed an unforgivable crime, Sirius could still detect a trace of sadness in his expression, as well as the unwillingness and resentment of being teased by fate.

And now the person in front of them is completely immersed in his own 'success' and no longer has any emotions that can be called 'good'.

"Well, I do feel a little confused and curious-"

Sirius suddenly said,

"What on earth have you done?"

"Oh, that's wise, Mr. Black--"

Graves smiled politely, but there was only cold pride in his eyes instead of a happy smile.

"Today is not intended to be a day worth remembering. I mean, I finally got rid of the shackles of mediocrity and truly became a great immortal being. It is worthy of celebration, so I am willing to give some mercy. Show it to you. Oh, show it. My extraordinary wisdom——"

Graves was pacing beside the blood pool, excited,

"But where should I start? You just asked me why you are not worried about whether the information revealed to me by the vampires I arrested many years ago is a lie. This group of despicable vampires who only deserve to live in the dark will Won't you set a trap for me?"

"You said you interrogated them with veritaserum and magic, didn't you?"

Sirius said.

"Oh, it's true, Mr. Black. I didn't lie just now. I do think that what the vampires told me is true. As long as their ancestors are resurrected, the curse on me can be solved, but--"

Graves stood in front of the ancestor and looked at it with the eyes of appreciating art.

"I also considered a question at the time, that is, even if I join the vampires' plan and help them successfully resurrect the ancestor, how can I ensure that the ancestor is willing to solve my troubles after resurrection instead of continuing to curse me? To enslave me?"

Sirius' eyebrows moved but he said nothing.

"As you just said, what I want to resurrect is a dark creature that I don't understand, a vampire with powerful power. Could it be said that I want to place my hope in such a life that will know how to be grateful and repay me? Favor?"

Looking at the handsome face of the vampire ancestor, Graves smiled contemptuously.

"I know this is impossible. Based on my experience in dealing with these dark creatures, they will know how to be afraid, but they will never know how to be grateful. I need it to be resurrected, because only in this way can I survive, but at the same time, I Gotta make sure I don't get into deeper trouble."

"So, when you resurrect this vampire, you plan to use magic to control it and turn it into your puppet?"

Amelia couldn't help but ask.

"Normal magic cannot do this. My grandfather's unfortunate experience taught me that you should never underestimate a powerful wizard. I must be foolproof."

Graves smiled coldly,

"I know that it is not that simple to control a dark creature that is many times more powerful than me. It is very likely that I will send myself into the abyss. I was confused by this for a period of time when I learned about the vampire plan. I I went through many ancient magic books, looking for powerful magic that was lost in history, and looking for something that could help me, but the results were disappointing. I finally found nothing until I went to England——"

"U.K?"

Amelia said in surprise, but then she came to her senses,

"You went to St. Mungo's Hospital for Magical Maladies and Magical Injuries to find a way to curb the curse?"

Graves nodded appreciatively,

"But St. Mungo's also disappointed me. They made the same diagnosis as St. Josiah. After lingering there for some days, I didn't intend to waste any more time, and just before I left England, it suddenly occurred to me One thing I was struck by was a powerful black magic. So, is it possible that some black magic can solve my problem? To this end, I visited the famous underground wizarding community in Knockturn Alley, London. "

On the steel frame in mid-air, Fox turned his head and glanced at the fangs beside him, and let out a low cry.

Amosta in the hotel looked through the void, and his eyes fell on Fox's blue eyes. After thinking, Amosta nodded.

"--I issued a commission in the underground world, hoping that some knowledgeable wizards could provide me with some valuable information, so that I would not have to take risks to resurrect a vampire. In my opinion at the time, this was undoubtedly abandonment. An act of faith, but the ending still disappoints me. Those liars just want to use lies to defraud galleons.

But by mistake, I unexpectedly got an ancient black magic book there, which recorded an extremely powerful black magic that could solve my worries about resurrecting the ancestor of vampires and truly grant me immortality. s life! "

"That is--"

boom!

Sirius was about to ask.

However, at this moment, a sudden explosion in the air interrupted his question. Everyone subconsciously raised their heads and looked at the source of the sound. They saw the white air waves set off by the strong explosion rapidly expanding in the air. Clean up all directions.

Graves also looked into the air, but then his eyes turned sinister when he felt something.

"Oh the Anti-Apparition Curse has been broken, this magic -"

boom--

The air waves pushed some beams in the air, and as they crashed to the ground, a crisp bang came out again. A thin figure with gray hair walked out of the twisted space and slowly landed on the ground.

"Amosta!"

Sirius immediately screamed in surprise and rushed to his side,

"What are you doing? Are you Fox?"

The moment that familiar face came into view, Amelia's breathing suddenly stopped for a moment. Then, an indescribable sense of relief bloomed in her heart, and the Aurors who recognized who it was tensed up. He also relaxed.

In contrast, the vampires looked panicked and were restless.

Amosta did not answer Sirius's question, but just smiled at him and Amelia who ran over, and then his deep eyes fell on Graves.

"Amosta Blaine"

Graves' voice became sinister,

"You've been watching and monitoring here, haven't you?"

"Is this your last question?"

Amosta's expression was calm. He looked at Graves with something strange in his eyes, as if it was pity.

"Oh, finally?"

Graves had forgotten that he was sharing his experience of 'success'. His laughter was filled with swollen anger, as if he had been humiliated, and he roared,

"You have no idea what great magic I have accomplished. I have achieved immortality. My life will last forever in the world. No one or any magic can destroy me!"

"Is he crazy?"

Sirius looked at Graves in surprise.

"Oh, he's not crazy, it's just that something beautiful has left his soul forever."

Amosta looked at the crazy Graves calmly,

"The world has never lacked careerists. From ancient times to the present, you have used the ancestor of vampires, a living life, as a container to carry your soul. I must admit that this is a very interesting attempt, but at the same time, it is also very stupid. But I want to thank you for making something that had been in my mind for a long time, a possibility that I wasn't sure was even possible."

"You're teasing me, Blaine!"

Graves stared at Amosta with sinister eyes.

"What exactly is that?"

An old voice sounded, and Fox fluttered his wings and landed on Amosta's shoulder. Under Sirius's dumb gaze, Fox tilted his head and couldn't restrain his curious stare at Amosta.

"What did you figure out, Amosta, about him?"
