Hogwarts: My name is the Unforgivable Curse

Chapter 257 Obtaining the locket

"Are you ready?"

In Grindelwald's cell in the Nurmengard Tower, Gellert Grindelwald and Imprey, controlled by Avada, were sitting opposite each other. Avada was still holding her own wand in her hand. Under the vision of his magic senses, Grindelwald's strong golden spiritual power was boiling violently, slowly rotating around the thread connecting the depths of the magic world, accumulating power.

In reality, even in a house with closed doors and windows, Grindelwald's robes were rustled by the strong wind stirred by some invisible force - that was a precursor to the activation of his prophecy ability.

There is no doubt that Grindelwald is a true master of prophecy, both in terms of talent and knowledge. His upper limit in prophecy is no worse than Professor Trelawney who can make "true prophecies", and his lower limit is much higher than her - at least Grindelwald can truly master his talent. Unlike Trelawney, who can only be triggered passively...

"Ready, Mr. Grindelwald."

Avada nodded firmly: Let's start..."

"Uh, wait a minute."

His expression suddenly became embarrassed, and he scratched his head under Grindelwald's resentful gaze: "Professor Dumbledore is calling me."

"...Hurry up."

Grindelwald snorted and didn't say much, just urging him to deal with matters at Hogwarts.

"I try my best."

Avada nodded and shifted his mind to the body of Hogwarts - just now, a beautiful crimson feather appeared out of thin air in his hand along with a ray of fire.

'You actually want to use Fox's power to send me a message...Is there something very urgent? ’

He frowned slightly and simply adjusted his clothes, then grasped the feather in the familiar way, waiting for the warm power from the feather to surge through his body from the palm of his hand...

The next moment, his vision was filled with sudden firelight. After the fire light dissipated, he saw Albus Dumbledore's old face again - that face looked a little gloomy at the moment.

"professor."

Seeing this, Avada didn't say much. She just nodded lightly and said hello, then remained silent, waiting for Dumbledore's instructions.

"I have already transferred the potion in the golden cup."

Dumbledore first took out the empty Hufflepuff gold cup from a drawer under the table and put it on the table: "You can take it back. But besides that, I have one more thing I have to give the things to you..."

So, under Avada's surprised gaze, Dumbledore took out another golden object from his pocket and placed it on the desk - it was Slytherin's locket.

Authentic.

"Is this... the genuine Horcrux that was dropped?"

Avada touched the locket somewhat unexpectedly. He could clearly see the soul fragments inside the locket, as well as the Horcrux magic wrapped around the fragments. Moreover, there is an additional layer of restriction like a chain on the outside, which firmly suppresses the activity of the soul fragments - this is the magic he developed based on the dragon eggs two years ago, specifically to deal with Voldemort.

"You found it so quickly?"

He was indeed a little surprised - according to the news from Nobic Ridge University, the secret werewolf organization has not been completely eliminated yet, and the Auror Office has been involved in this matter, so it stands to reason that Sirius should be the one now Blake's busiest time - don't forget, he is still a criminal. In addition to trying his best to help the Order of the Phoenix capture the remaining werewolves, he also has to ensure that he is not exposed to the sight of the Aurors...

Moreover, even if Sirius Black could arrive in time, it would take some time to think of Kreacher - he remembered that Sirius always seemed to hate his Death Eater family, especially Kreacher. very……

“I had help from a special friend.”

Dumbledore did not seem happy to have obtained the real locket in such a short period of time: "Regulus Black made a great sacrifice to obtain this Horcrux. At that time, he chose to personally He drank the magic potion and asked his companion to carry the Horcrux and hide it...and by chance, I happened to know his companion, so I found him easily."

"That's a house elf - for the past ten years, he has actually been living in a place within my reach, carrying this real Horcrux... He has always been under my nose, but that little The elves have always firmly kept this secret, and according to Regulus's will, they have tried every means to destroy it..."

"Is he willing to just hand over to you something he has guarded for more than ten years?"

Avada asked a question that most people would ask.

"I found his new owner - and he's one of my friends."

Dumbledore replied: "He ordered the elf to hand over the Horcrux - to be honest, he was already a little desperate at that time. He had tried hard for more than ten years but could not harm the Horcrux at all, so in After we promised to dispose of it as soon as possible, he happily handed over the Horcrux. As a limited reward, we also recovered the body of Regulus... The elf is probably still with him now. Weeping next to his body."

"……That's good."

Avada sighed with emotion - the story of Regulus and Kreacher finally ended in a much more satisfactory way than the original work.

Sirius can witness the will of his brother and Kreacher with his own eyes, and while eliminating the misunderstanding, his attitude towards Kreacher will probably improve a lot in the future. And after Sirius is cleared of charges, the name Regulus Black will eventually be resounding throughout the magical society as a hero...

"Now then, Mr. Ken,"

Dumbledore pushed the locket forward: "I hope to leave this Horcrux to you for safekeeping - the soul fragments on it were originally very aggressive, but now they have been suppressed by me. You can store it with confidence."

"You said you were looking for a way to peel off just the fragments of your soul, and I'm pretty sure you can do that."

Seeing Avada accepting the locket without much surprise, Dumbledore also nodded: "But I still have to remind you that we can't be happy too early - this is not the last Horcrux. . According to my measurements, there are still some gaps in Voldemort's soul, and those missing souls can probably form one or two Horcruxes... We are still busy."
