Compared to the locket that Alan had taken out earlier, which was truly inherited from Salazar Slytherin himself, this one was neither as large nor lacked the patterned symbol, nor did it have the ornate "S" symbol characteristic of Slytherin, and the locket popped open, leaving nothing but a folded piece of parchment tightly stuffed in the place where the portrait was kept.

Eren took out the parchment, quickly swiped the handwriting on it, looked up to Sirius and said, "This is the last handwriting of Regulus. ”

Hermione, who was beside Allen, took the note, smoothed out the folds with her hand, spread it out on the pedestal, and read out the handwriting: "To the Dark Lord."

I was dead before you read this

But I want you to know that I found your secret.

I stole the real Horcrux and intend to destroy it as soon as possible.

I'm willing to die because I hope you'll be killed when you meet an opponent.

．B”

After reading it, Hermione looked at the note again with a look of admiration in her eyes: "Regulus is probably the first person to discover that the mysterious man made a Horcrux, he risked his life to exchange it for a real Horcrux, this Slytherin has the bravery of Gryffindor and the wisdom of Ravenclaw." ”

"I couldn't have been more wrong, Regulus. Sirius slammed his fist into the stone basin, and the chagrin and guilt in his heart grew more and more turbulent, and he felt remorseful, "I know you sacrificed yourself to resist the mysterious man, but I didn't expect it to destroy one of his Horcruxes. I used to call you an idiot, but in fact it was me who was ignorant, and you were a hero. ”

"Confused old Kreacher...... What did Kreacher do, Master Regulus was really rebelling against the Dark Lord, Kreacher made a mistake...... Kreacher is a fool!" Kreacher reached the base of the stone platform in disbelief after hearing Hermione read the note, confirming the handwriting.

Kreacher had not believed Alan's claim that Regulus had gone to the cavern to drink the venom to fight the Dark Lord, as Kreacher had no idea about the purpose of the mysterious man and Regulus's final actions, and thought that Eren was deceiving him. Until now, he had seen the note with his own eyes and confirmed the handwriting on it, and he stood as if he had been struck by lightning.

"Idiot, now you know how stupid you were to expose information to my stupid mad cousin. Sirius glanced at Kreacher contemptuously, Sirius' mocking tone, in anguish and remorse.

"Kreacher did the opposite of Master Regulus's goal..."Kreacher, who was immersed in the pain of remorse, did not rebuke Sirius, he recalled what he had done, and regretted it so much that he threw himself on the ground in tears, pounding the ground desperately, and a mouthful of gray teeth were exposed to the air because of the cry.

"Kreacher is not allowed to hurt himself. Hearing Kreacher's desperate self-talk, Alan glanced up at Kreacher, and saw that his tears were sliding down his big nose again, and a mouthful of gray teeth were exposed to the air because he opened his mouth to cry, and before Hermione could react and before the elf could make an agitation, Alan preemptively gave the order, and then complained to Sirius, " I think Hermione has made it clear that there is also a reason for your own attitude towards it, since you never saw Kreacher as a creature with the same sensitive emotions as humans, then what it did because of these emotions that you didn't expect, that is the price you should pay. ”

At his command, the elf stood stiff and cried, but did not make any moves to hurt himself.

"Horcruxes are the most evil dark magic objects in the world. Sirius didn't say anything more about Alan's accusations, he judged it, and knew that Alan, who had obtained the Black family's collection, would have learned about it from his family's collection even if he hadn't known it from any other source, so he tried to change the subject with this, "I noticed that your previous original artifact looked basically intact, but you didn't feel any evil power in it, which means that you have destroyed it to fulfill Regulus's last wish?" Part of the soul of the mysterious man it was injected into is no longer there?"

"Yes, but I have bad news for you, Mystic didn't just make one Horcrux, in fact I've already destroyed three of his Horcruxes. Alan wasn't going to tell Sirius about Harry being one of the Horcruxes just yet, but he added something to the end, "I've teamed up with Dumbledore before, and the exact number and what is still under investigation..."

"Master Alan... Can Kreacher understand that you've destroyed the locket that Master Regulus wants Kreacher to destroy?" It looks very good?"

"Kreacher, the soul of the mysterious man has been destroyed from the Slytherin locket, it is no longer a Horcrux. Alan said to Kreachevin, who was holding his breath, unable to breathe but shivering, "That's what Regulus asked you to do. ”

"The task that Regulus has given you, the idea of catalyzing it by any means, you're done, Kreacher..."Hermione understood the ugly house-elf in front of her, and softly affirmed the result for him.

After a roar in a completely distorted voice, the aging Kreacher walked over with a brisk walk that was completely inappropriate for his age, and finally fell to the ground with his whole body in excitement, and before everyone could get anxious, he rolled and crawled in front of Alan, learning from the Death Eaters' behavior when facing the Dark Lord, trying to kiss Alan's boots but letting his tears and snot and saliva smug the other party.

"Stop! Alan took two steps back, and he hurriedly cleaned himself up with a slight cleanliness before shouting to the house-elves who had stayed where they were because of the order, "Don't get excited... Rest by yourself. ”

"Kreacher thought that in this life... I thought I would never be able to fulfill the orders of Master Regulus in my life... But Kreacher's new master destroyed it! Kreacher has lived up to Master Regulus!" Kreacher obediently stopped trying to kiss Alan's leather boots, and after trying to clean the boots for his new master, he was shrunk by the other party, and the heavy stone that had been pressing on his chest for many years felt overturned, but the unreality that arose for a moment made Kreacher roll over and lie on the ground, he turned his back to the sky, his eyes were a little blank looking at the stone wall above his head, completing the task he had dreamed of accomplishing in his life, and he didn't know what else he should do when he lost his life purpose, which made him look older.

Hermione looked at the house-elf with some concern, as if she was worried that it would die at any moment.

Sirius didn't say anything sarcastic just now, but when he looked at Hermione's appearance, he couldn't help but mutter, "Leave it alone, this troublesome old thing doesn't die so easily, maybe he'll be alive and well if I die!"

"Ahem... In a sense, that's true..."Allen, who briefly recalled Sirius's original fate, shook his head, "You'd better not underestimate the power of words and make this kind of prophecy, you know that I'm also a silent person in the Department of Mysteries, and fate can be changed, but they will always reveal some information to you inadvertently, so it's better to say less about these words... Don't put on this face that I think I'm superstitious, the mystery man believes in it too, doesn't he?"

"Speaking of which, doesn't the mysterious man, a madman, know that the soul should remain intact, and splitting it is an evil act against nature?! As long as the soul is divided, it will become extremely unstable, let alone many times! Therefore, even a large number of dark wizards are not willing to make Horcruxes, they prefer to die happily..." Sirius was surprised by the mysterious man's crazy behavior, but after noticing that Eren really knew a lot about Horcruxes, he was worried that the bad boy in front of him would try it himself, and this time he thought he was tactfully changing his tone and speaking in an attempt to warn Alan not to try, "Well, no wonder the mysterious man is feeling more and more crazy, he was said to be a charming spirit when he was younger, but what I can't understand is that he doesn't care about this hidden danger at all?"

"Harry told me that Dumbledore also destroyed a Horcrux, which was a ring belonging to Marvolo Gaunt of the mysterious mother's family..."Hermione spoke, her voice sounding a little complicated, "As for the hidden dangers... Harry told me that Mystery's mother, who had grown up in a Muggle orphanage, was no different from a Muggle-born wizard than a Muggle-born wizard in general, although she was from the old Gaunt family... Even the Horcrux itself was a mystery that he learned about when he was a student from the dark arts books that were still in the forbidden area at the time, and when he asked the knowledgeable Professor Horace Slughorn, Professor Slughorn revealed some secrets about the Horcrux out of love for him, and he made it... So I think the birth of the mysterious man made him not aware of the danger at first... And then he didn't care anymore. ”

"The birth of the mysterious man does limit his development to a great extent..."Allen agrees, "The mysterious man is also dismissive of the behavior of house-elves, just like a purebred wizard who treats elves as animals...... But the difference was that he would never think or bother to know that these elves might have magic that he didn't have. ”
