Chapter 57: Clues
Amina's thick brown hair hung down to her waist, and a makeup artist was applying her delicate makeup.
"Thea! There you are! Amina, looking surprised, turned around.
"Of course I'm here for your wedding to Siris! Oh, this is my wedding gift for you, it has the defensive formation I drew on it, and it's not a one-time thing! Cynthia hugged the beautiful woman in front of her.
"Alright, sit down, you haven't finished your makeup yet!" Cynthia pressed the woman to the chair.
"Fortunately, since your brother was removed, you started to secretly save money and buy this property, otherwise...... Even Uncle Alphad was removed. β
"Thea, did you set up that formation?" Amina spoke suddenly. "I've heard them say that the dungeon has been laid with a powerful formation."
"Let's not discuss that today, okay?" Cynthia's voice was a little cold.
It took a long time for the awkward atmosphere to ease.
"Thea, do you think this hairstyle is right for me?" Amina kept spinning around in front of the mirror, a little nervously asking.
"Don't worry, Amina! I promise Siris won't be able to take your eyes off you when I see you later! Cynthia was quite helpless, "Are all women like this before marriage?" At that time, Cissy always asked me the question of whether she was beautiful or not. β
"Thea, when you get married, you'll understand! Maybe you'll be more nervous than we are! What woman wouldn't want to be incomparably beautiful on her wedding day? Amina smiled.
"Me? I...... I'm still early! Cynthia thought about her wedding to Severus and couldn't help but blush.
"Okay, don't think about it, help me put on a dress!" Amina interrupted Cynthia's imagination.
Not long after helping Amina get dressed, Regulus came back on errands.
"Are you two alright? The wedding is about to begin! Regulus's gentle voice came from outside the door.
"Let's get out now!" Cynthia stood up, pulled Amina by the hand, and pushed the door open.
There were very few people at the wedding, and only Amina's younger brother in the Knott family, Scott Knot, who was the same level as Cynthia, secretly ran over.
Only the three of them and the bride were Slytherins, and the others were the Lions of Gryffindor, all of whom were friends of Siris.
After attending the wedding, Cynthia and Regulus hurried back to Grimmauld Place.
"Where have you two been?" As soon as he entered, Mr. Black's cold voice rang out.
"Father......" both of them lowered their heads at the same time.
"The older you get, the more disobedient you become! Don't you know what happened to Alphad?! Mr. Black was furious.
When I woke up in the morning, I found that Cynthia and Regulus were missing, and after reading the Daily Prophet, I learned that today was the wedding of the son of Cialis.
"This is the last time! Next time, you two will wait to be removed from the family! What are you doing in a daze, why don't you go back to your room soon?! β
"Yes, father......" After enduring a fire from my father, the two of them ran back to the third floor.
"Thea, can we talk?" Regulus suddenly stopped Cynthia, who was about to go back to her room.
"Absolutely! Go to my room, Rael! Cynthia paused for a moment, and agreed to Regulus's request.
"What's wrong, Rael?" Cynthia sat on the couch and asked suspiciously.
ββ¦β¦ There's something I'd like to ask you. Regulus hesitated for a long time, "You came late for the summer vacation. The host was delighted after enrolling Severus. And then inadvertently say, no matter what, your great Dark Lord will live forever! β
"I've been thinking these days, no one can live forever, so why would the master say something like that?"
"He, did he really say that?" Cynthia looked at Regulus in surprise.
"Absolutely."
"It's weird...... Speaking of which, I also noticed a strange thing that day. When I was drawing the formation for my master, I felt that his soul didn't seem to be very stable, and there was a feeling of brokenness. Because of the particularity of the Blood Slaying Array, I can feel it. β
Cynthia frowned, remembering what had happened that day. "It's a strange feeling, because normal people's souls are whole, but ...... The soul of the host ......"
"It's all so strange, is it because the master is practicing some kind of dark magic?" Regulus combined the two things and analyzed.
"I think it's more likely, let's both of us check it out! Look at the dark magic that can make people immortal, but cause soul instability. Cynthia's curiosity drove her to say these words.
Regulus was also curious, so the two hit it off, and slipped into Mr. Black's study.
β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦
After the start of school, the two of them kept flipping through the ancient books in the forbidden area of the library, trying to find some clues from them.
But for a long time, they didn't find anything.
This is Cynthia's last year at Hogwarts, and Cynthia, president of the student council and captain of Slytherin Quidditch, is still busy.
She could only learn a few things about Severus from Lucius.
Lucius and Severus also developed a strong friendship during their relationship, and Lucius told Cynthia that the Dark Lord appreciated Severus's talent and that he had become the Dark Lord's right-hand man.
Cynthia was very happy when she saw this letter, wasn't that what Severus wanted?
At Christmas, Voldemort summoned the siblings again.
βMy LordοΌβ The two men knelt at the man's feet and kissed the horns of his robes respectfully.
"Thea, Regulus. I asked you to come here today because I want a house-elf from the Black family. Your great master needs it to do one thing for me. Voldemort leaned back on the couch and said lazily.
"It's a privilege for the Black family! I'll bring him right now! Master! Cynthia bowed.
"Good. Then I'm waiting for you here. β
After a while, Cynthia walked in with the elderly Kreacher.
"Master, this is Kreacher of House Black, if there is anything, you can tell him."
"Come here, I'll take you somewhere." Voldemort stood up and looked at the ugly elf with disdain. "You two can go back."
After returning home, the two of them entered the study again, and continued to search for the mysterious black magic.
"Rael, come here!" Suddenly, Cynthia cried out as she held a heavy ancient book.
"Did you find it?" Regulus put down the book in his hand and walked briskly.
"Horcruxes?" He looked in the direction of Cynthia's finger.
