The Strongest Badger at Hogwarts

Seeing Kreacher's appearance, Link frowned even more.

Kreacher, currently under the control of the Imperius Curse, took him to the room where Regulus' relics were piled up as ordered, but Slytherin's locket was not found here.

Where else could it be?

Link rubbed his chin and began to pace the room.

Although due to the long time, his memory of this plot has been blurred.

But when he was reminded by the current situation, he vaguely remembered that in the original book, Harry and the others didn't really seem to find the Slytherin locket in 12 Grimmauld Place.

In other words, Slytherin's locket did exist in 12 Grimmauld Place for a while, but after Sirius died, he was taken away by a thief in the Order of the Phoenix together with the treasures accumulated by the Black family for hundreds of years stolen.

Could it be that the thief's theft has actually started now, and he has already stolen the locket?

Link shook his head slowly.

He thought it was unlikely.

You must know that it has only been a few months since No. 12 Grimmauld Place became the base of the Order of the Phoenix. Before Sirius died, the main force of the Order of the Phoenix was all gathered here to protect Harry. Will not have the guts to steal.

That being the case, is Kreacher lying?

Link looked at Kreacher again, and the other party still maintained the appearance of being under the control of the Imperius Curse.

But Link knows that his own Imperius Curse level is actually not high.

Among the three unforgivable curses, the Imperius Curse is the only control and bewitching spell, and it is actually much more difficult to learn than the straight-forward spells such as the Killing Curse and the Cruciatus Curse. The current situation really doesn't have much gain, so Link's Imperius Curse level is only lv1 so far.

Regulus is definitely the most important person in Kreacher's heart. There is a secret about Regulus. Although Kreacher has been controlled by the Imperius Curse, it is unlikely that he will disobey him, but his strength against Link is not high. With the Imperius Curse, it is still possible for Kreacher to misinterpret the order and execute it under the influence of the subconscious.

After all, this is the most common trick used by house-elves.

Thinking of this, Link slowly approached Kreacher, shaking his wand slightly, and a realistic three-dimensional projection of a Slytherin pendant box appeared in midair.

"Take me to this locket."

As soon as Link said this, Kreacher's originally blissful and silly expression instantly twisted, as if he was resisting something.

It's a pity that even the lv1 Imperius Curse is too powerful for Kreacher.

At best, he can misinterpret and mislead the order within a limited range, and it is impossible to completely refuse to execute the order.

After resisting for less than two minutes, Kreacher completely collapsed, turned around and staggered towards the outside of the room.

Seeing this, the corner of Link's mouth twitched into a sinister smile and said:

"Cunning old thing!"

"Hisssssss!~" (Kill him afterwards!)

Arkham's head protruded from Link's shoulder at the right time.

After getting along with Link for many years, his thinking mode began to become more and more similar to Link.

In other words, this person and snake began to become more and more in harmony with each other.

In many cases, what Arkham said was actually Link's most true thoughts.

So listening to Arkham's words, the red light in Link's eyes flickered a few times, obviously moved.

But in the end he shook his head and quickly followed Kreacher.

After being wobbled around several times by Kreacher, Link finally stood in front of a cupboard.

At this moment, the happiness and stupidity on Kreacher's face had completely disappeared, replaced by pain.

Link ignored him, and opened the cupboard door with a wave of his wand.

The space in the cupboard is surprisingly large.

This seems to be the place where Kreacher lives, and there is still a dirty old blanket inside,

It was almost the same color as Kreacher's torn pillowcase.

But it doesn't matter.

The key is that in the innermost part of the cupboard, there are still a lot of valuables of the Black family.

Link only took a cursory glance and found various things inside, including the Order of Merlin First Class and various jewelry with the Black family crest.

From the looks of it, Kreacher seemed to be really afraid of Sirius, the prodigal son, so he took the lead in putting away all the valuables before Sirius caused huge damage to Grimaud's old house.

A blue light flashed in Link's eyes, and his mental power gushed out, and soon he felt a familiar aura from the piled items.

It was the breath unique to Voldemort's Horcrux, crazy and murderous, but lacking in greed and agility.

It seems that along with the growth of Voldemort's strength, his craftsmanship in making Horcruxes has also made great progress.

At least Slytherin's pendant box was not born with self-awareness like a diary after being made into a Horcrux.

"Scare! Hiss!~" (It's that liar's breath! Let me bite him to death! Kill them all!)

Arkham neighed excitedly. Ever since Voldemort forced him to attack Link for the second time, he had nothing but pure hatred for Voldemort.

The corner of Link's mouth rose slightly, and he hooked his wand lightly.

"The pendant box is coming!"

Wow——

The mountain of items in the cupboard collapsed suddenly, and a pure gold pendant box flew out of it, along with an old notebook whose outer skin had changed color.

Link didn't take care of the notepad first, but fixed the pendant box with magic power, floating in midair.

"scare!"

Arkham turned into an afterimage and bit it almost instantly, only to be dragged out by Link again.

Ignoring the aggrieved Arkham, Link controlled the power of the curse to include the pendant box, and invaded inward in a relatively soft way.

This is unimaginable torture for the Voldemort soul in the pendant box, but the benefits are also obvious, at least Slytherin's pendant box will not suffer too much damage, it can be regarded as saved.

"what--"

A shrill scream came from inside the pendant box, followed by a faint black mist.

[Gold skill point*1 has been obtained! 】

The smile on Link's face grew stronger, and then he grabbed the pendant box in his hand and looked at it carefully.

This legendary Slytherin relic is actually not exquisite.

The hardness of gold is not high, and Slytherin's pendant box obviously didn't use too many high-end alloy techniques when making it. The surface of the locket has a lot of scratches and potholes.

These traces covered many ancient runes engraved on the surface of the pendant box, and even the iconic green S-shaped snake pattern became blurred.

Satisfied with putting away the pendant box, Link picked up the notepad that was brought out by the pendant box.

Open the notepad, the English abbreviation .B. is clearly engraved on the first page of the notepad, obviously this notepad should be Regulus' diary.

The contents of the diary are as follows:

‘Today is my 14th birthday, and my father gave me a medal that is said to have been worn by the ancestors of the Black family. It is very beautiful. But compared to that, I still prefer the Muggle food my brother Sirius gave me, what's that called? Butter cake? It should be called this, right? It's a pity that my father and mother don't like it, and they don't like my brother either, thinking that my brother is a disobedient rebel. '

‘What a great man Voldemort is! Father and mother are right, he is the one who can lead wizards to real prosperity! I heard that he formed a noble organization called the Death Eaters, and I wanted to join it, but I was too young. '

'Big swath of ink...'

‘Brother Sirius is quarreling with his parents again. Sometimes I really don't understand them, it's just a concept of blood supremacy, what's there to argue about, is this concept more important than family? '

‘Brother Sirius ran away from home. He said he would never come back, but none of us believed he would. This is his home, we are all his family, and he will come back when he gets angry, just like before. '

'I finally joined the Death Eaters! You know I'm only 16 years old this year! I dare say that I am definitely the youngest Death Eater in history. Lord Voldemort values ​​me very much. I am really honored! Oh, by the way, Brother Sirius hasn’t come back yet...’

'The torn pages...'

'Above Merlin! What have I done? How could they force me to do this? I actually killed that Muggle, and it was only a child! God! Are we really righteous? '

'The torn pages...'

‘Voldemort is hiding something from us, and his secret plan is far crazier than what we are doing now. He is driving us to hell, I need to do something! '

'Voldemort wants me to sacrifice Kreacher, this may be an opportunity...'

'The torn pages...'

'Beast, beast, beast, beast...'

'How could he treat Kreacher like that? ! Can't believe I delivered Kreacher to him myself! And he...he is still making Horcruxes! The person who can't even say his name is completely crazy! I have to stop him... Maybe I can contact my brother, no, I must not tell him and my parents about this! This will hurt them! I have to do it alone! '

...

A few traces of emotion appeared on Link's face.

After combining the decorations in Regulus' room, the contents of the diary, and Link's memories of this episode in his previous life, the vivid image of Regulus appeared in front of Link's eyes.

This is a pretty good young man.

When he was young, he experienced long-term and high-intensity brainwashing by his parents, so that he had a strong worship of Voldemort.

It's over when normal people are brainwashed to this point.

But Regulus was different.

This is a truly kind and brave man with lofty ideals!

This kindness has not dissipated even after facing such brainwashing, and finally awakened him from his addiction and captured one of Voldemort's Horcruxes.

If there was anything that Regulus did not do well enough, it must be that he was not mature and strong enough in the process of capturing the Horcrux, so much so that he lost his life.

Link didn't want to blame Regulus for anything. This was disrespect to the deceased. Although what Regulus did was not perfect, he had done his best.

No one can expect a teenager who is only 18 years old to handle everything perfectly. This is unrealistic.

Link just felt pity.

Suppose Regulus survived and survived to Voldemort's downfall.

Then the plot of the whole world will undergo earth-shaking changes!

Dumbledore will know Voldemort's Horcrux plan in advance, Sirius may return home to reunite with his family, Voldemort may have been really killed by Dumbledore long ago...

However, there are no ifs in this world.

Snapped--

The diary was closed again, and Link looked at Kreacher at the side.

At this time, the expression on Kreacher's face has completely returned to silence. It seems that the loss of Regulus's relic has caused him a lot of psychological trauma. Naturally, there is also a reason why Link's Imperius Curse is not high.

"Live well, now is not the time for you to die."

Link said with a smile, and at the same time tapped his wand lightly, "Forget everything!"

Hum——

A dazzling white light flashed, and Kreacher collapsed in front of the cupboard, while Link flicked his robe, comforting Arkham and walking towards his room.

At this stage, the collection plan for gold skill points has been successfully completed.

With this gold skill point, Link is confident that he can at least upgrade the Apparition Charm to LV6 before the real all-out battle with Voldemort begins.

As for the Regulus diary, Link intends to throw it directly to Sirius Black and Dumbledore.

It's not for the Black family's peace or to see Sirius being too much to talk about.

It's that Link simply doesn't want Regulus' deeds to be buried.

After all, in Link's view, Regulus is the real hero.

...

The next morning, Link, who was sleeping soundly, was awakened by a violent shaking.

He reluctantly opened his eyes with a dissatisfied face, only to see Harry still shaking his body excitedly.

Arkham was also woken up.

He who was deeply wronged last night shrunk and curled up on Link's chest, which was a great comfort to him.

Now that Harry made such a fuss, he swelled several times without any hesitation, entrenched beside Link and opened his bloody mouth to Harry in a threatening manner.

This is a scene that would absolutely terrify any normal person.

Just like Hermione was taken aback by Arkham yesterday.

It's a pity that Harry is also a Parselmouth, and the Parselmouth is born without any fear of snakes. For them, all snakes are their friends and partners.

So facing the furious Arkham, instead of showing any fear, Harry smiled and waved:

"Hiss hiss hiss!" (Ah! Good morning! Mr. Basilisk!)

"Scare hiss!" (Not good, you impolite brat! Why do you have a smell that I am familiar with? I really want to give you a bite!)

While neighing, Arkham approached Harry and began to stick out the letter.

Harry, on the other hand, was a little baffled by being messed with, and even lowered his head and smelled himself.

"Stop messing around! Arkham is coming back!"

Link frowned and shouted, at the same time, with a hook of his finger, he forcibly shrank Arkham and put it back under the bed.

If you don’t accept it, you must know that there is actually a part of Voldemort’s soul hidden in Harry’s body. Strictly speaking, it is also a kind of Horcrux. Would really be tempted to give Harry a sip.

Then the fun will be great. Chapter List of The Strongest Badger at Hogwarts
