Hogwarts: My name is the Unforgivable Curse

A day later, it was still Dumbledore's headmaster's office.

This time, the person sitting in front of Dumbledore turned into a handsome black-haired middle-aged man. He was also well-dressed, but his luxurious clothes seemed a little too old, showing the look of an old-school pure-blood aristocrat. style. At this moment, he was holding a piece of parchment and staring at the writing on it motionlessly. His tight lips and somewhat white joints also showed that his mood was not calm...

It's Sirius Black.

Originally, he was responsible for bringing an end to the werewolf attack, cooperating with the Order of the Phoenix and Aurors to secretly capture Greyback's men who were absconding. But after receiving Dumbledore's urgent letter last night, he immediately rushed back to Hogwarts.

"What did you think of, Sirius?"

Seeing that the man in front of him had not spoken for a long time, Dumbledore had to take the lead in bringing him back to reality from his agitated heart and let him raise his head again.

"you……"

As soon as Sirius Black uttered a word, he was surprised to find that his voice was hoarse and hoarse. He quickly swallowed before making his voice audible: "I think your guess is correct, he is definitely Thunder." Gulus Black, my brother..."

"You may not know that at that time, there was news in our family that he did not die at the hands of Aurors, but was killed by Voldemort or Voldemort's men... From what I learned about his death, He was in so deep, and then he was afraid of what he was being asked to do, and he wanted to quit - and you know, he couldn't just hand Voldemort his resignation and be done with it. Either he would work for the rest of his life, or he would die."

"But I didn't expect... I didn't expect... that he would be so..."

"brave."

Dumbledore answered the incoherent Sirius and handed him a cup of tea.

"Thank you."

Sirius raised his head and drank the tea without any aristocratic manner, his voice choked up: "At that time, he was the person who admired Voldemort the most... I always thought he was a stupid idiot..."

"Professor, according to you, drinking those potions will cause people to be extremely thirsty, and they will involuntarily drink the lake water, and then be dragged down by the Inferi... Then he is most likely under that lake now, right? ?"

"Either him or his companions."

Dumbledore was noncommittal: "And to say something unpleasant, it was the best situation for him in the lake - that means he chose to drink the potion himself and let his companions escape secretly with the real Horcrux. . On the other hand, if those lying in the lake are his companions... You also said that according to your family's news, Regulus died at the hands of Voldemort, right?"

"That means that all his efforts were in vain. Voldemort regained the Horcrux from him and placed it properly, and he will definitely encounter unimaginable torture before his death."

Dumbledore couldn't bear it - when he said these words, Sirius' breathing almost stopped.

"I...I want to take a look."

After being silent for an unknown amount of time, Sirius finally made a low plea: "Is it okay, Professor? I can recognize him, if he is really here..."

"……good."

This meant that the magic that Voldemort had cast on the lake had to be broken, and then all the inferi in the entire lake would be dragged out and identified one by one, which would somewhat disrupt Dumbledore's original arrangements - but looking at Sirius like this, he couldn't imagine that he How to express rejection.

…

With a flash of fire, Sirius and Dumbledore appeared again on the island in the middle of the lake in the Horcrux Cave.

"A quick crack may cause some damage...forget it, we won't need it here anymore anyway."

Dumbledore muttered somewhat self-deprecatingly - his students always bring him unexpected surprises.

While muttering, he took out the Elder Wand again and waved it in an exaggerated way facing the lake. Under his actions, the originally calm lake surface first rippled, and then quickly expanded into waves, and then raging whirlpools... In just a moment, the entire lake reinforced by Voldemort's magic was already under his The water boiled under the wand, and the Inferi hiding in it could only rise and fall powerlessly with the waves.

Finally, there seemed to be a soft click sound from the deepest part of the lake, as if something had broken.

With that sound, the water in the entire lake seemed to have broken free from some invisible shackles, and became visibly alive with the naked eye - if Dumbledore's forceful stirring of the lake water before was to stir the cement, then now it is just An ordinary pool where anyone can easily stir up waves.

"Fortunately, it's easier than expected - Sirius, get ready."

Dumbledore turned around to remind Sirius, who was dazed at the side, and then gently raised his wand, causing the water in the entire lake to slowly float together with the Inferi inside, and then the water in it floated again. They condensed into chains and tied each of the Inferi tightly, and then sent them out of the water and arranged them neatly in front of Sirius. And Sirius had no time to be shocked by Dumbledore's power. He stared carefully and carefully observed the face of each inferi...

Fortunately, corpses that become Inferi become stronger and harder to decay, so even after being soaked in water for more than ten years, their faces are still clearly identifiable.

"It's him!"

Suddenly, he pointed at one of the inferi and shouted in a trembling voice: "It's him, no one else, but him..."

Although Sirius was a little incoherent at the moment, Dumbledore still understood what he wanted to express, so he controlled the Inferi he pointed out to slowly float down and landed in front of Sirius - the Inferi. He struggled desperately and tried to attack the "enemy" in front of him, but Dumbledore's water chains restrained him tightly.

Dumbledore frowned and pointed his wand at Regulus's body. Suddenly, bursts of rich and eerie black mist dispersed from his mouth and nose, and his iron-green skin gradually returned to normal. Natural color... A moment later, what was in front of Sirius was a body wearing wet robes, as if it was just sleeping.

"……Thanks."

Sirius was half-kneeling on the ground, holding Regulus' hand tightly, his shoulders twitching. After simply thanking Dumbledore, there was only a long silence in the cave...

"Sorry, Professor."

After an unknown amount of time, he stood up again and looked at Dumbledore, who was standing quietly aside, with red eyes: "I lost my temper a little, I'm sorry..."

"Also, maybe I have guessed who Regulus's companion is... Kreacher, it can only be Kreacher."

"Only a house elf who completely obeys his orders can be completely trusted by him on such an important matter and take care of the real Horcrux on his behalf... He is in Grimmauld Place now!"

"We have to find him!"
