Harry Potter and the Legend of the Temple
Chapter 156 Sirius and Regulus
Louis had never seen Sirius be so out of his mind, even when faced with Peter Pettigrew, he was just acting crazy.
But now, his brother, his biological brother, the blood of the Black family, the iron-clad fact is before him.
Originally, he thought that Regulus was just like his family, ignorant, blindly pursuing power and status, and firmly believing in the supremacy of pure blood. He was ultimately killed by Voldemort because of his own fault. His disappointment with Regulus was written in on the face.
But now, Kreacher told him a completely different story. In this story, Regulus was not a coward, but a hero who sacrificed his life to protect Kreacher and destroy Voldemort's conspiracy.
Kreacher was yelled at by Sirius and had already begun to punish himself continuously. Harry and Louis quickly stopped him again, but it was no use. This time the house elf seemed to use all his strength and kept hitting him with headshots, even on the head. Some blood has appeared, but it has not stopped.
"Stop! Sirius, make it stop!" Harry said to Sirius in a pleading tone. If this continued, Kreacher would be killed here.
"Stop? Why? This is its dereliction of duty, Harry." Sirius said expressionlessly, with anger in his eyes, "As my Black's house elf, it actually watched its master die!"
"No, that's not the case." Harry said quickly, "Kreacher was just obeying the order at the time. He had nothing to do. The death of Regulus was also very sad for him. We can't put all the responsibility on him. body."
"Humph, even so, it is at fault." Sirius said, "Harry, don't pity it, it is just a house elf."
If he wanted to change Sirius's view of house elves, he might not be able to do it for a while.
The attitude of wizards towards house elves is actually similar to that of Muggles towards robots. Robots have their own three laws. Of course, when the three laws conflict, they will sacrifice themselves to protect human beings.
The house elf's magical law is that it must never disobey its master's orders. Even if its master's life is threatened, if its master does not order to save itself, then it can only watch its master perish.
"Sirius, I know you feel bad inside, but Kreacher is also a life. He is not just a house elf. Without Kreacher, I'm afraid Regulus' true situation would not be known." Louis looked at Sirius, He saw his inner struggle, "Regulus is a hero, and he likes Kreacher very much. If Kreacher really dies here, do you think Regulus will be happy?"
Sirius was speechless. Not to mention what Regulus was thinking, Kreacher should not have ended up like this after he had worked hard at the Black family for so many years.
"Get up, Kreacher." Sirius' tone was quite helpless.
Kreacher hiccupped for several minutes before he calmed down. He adjusted to a sitting position with some difficulty, rubbing his eyes with his hands like a child.
"By the way, you just said that Regulus wanted you to destroy this locket?" Sirius asked, "But I see that this locket seems to be intact."
"No, Kreacher can't destroy the locket. There is powerful black magic on the locket, and Kreacher can't do it..." Kreacher shook his head vigorously.
Sirius looked at the locket in front of him, and suddenly felt the urge to smash it, and an unknown fire suddenly burst out.
This locket was the ultimate murderer of Regulus. Regulus, Regulus, you claim that the blood of the Black family is pure and noble, but in the end you still sacrificed your life for a dark magic item.
He remembered the story of his childhood with Regulus, Sirius and Regulus, the two dazzling stars of the Black family. At that time, in Hogwarts, although Regulus was one year below Sirius, he was outstanding and was a legend in Slytherin.
Regulus has admired his brother Sirius since he was a child and has always regarded him as his goal. Sirius also thinks highly of his younger brother. Their relationship has always been very good. Of course, this was all before the fifth grade.
Influenced by Slytherin House, he was deeply fascinated by Voldemort's charm, so much so that in those days, Regulus and Sirius quarreled every day.
Almost from then on, Sirius stopped talking to him. He always felt that Regulus was like a fool for joining the Death Eaters, which he always regretted.
However, what the outside world didn't know was that Sirius later gave up his love for his younger brother. This might be the last thing he did for Regulus.
However, today, Sirius learned from Kreacher that Regulus resisted Voldemort, and all his knowledge of Regulus completely collapsed.
Although he did not resist Voldemort head-on like Sirius, he silently made his contribution behind the scenes.
If Regulus was still alive, he really wanted to come to him and apologize to his brother properly.
However, it was too late.
"Kreacher, you said Regulus died in that cave. Do you still remember where that place is?" Sirius said suddenly.
"I know that the location of the cave has been engraved in Kreacher's bones. Kreacher will never forget it in his life."
"Very well, I want you to take me to the cave. I must bring Regulus's body back."
"Sirius, we're going with you." Harry said immediately.
"No, it's too dangerous. I can't let you take the risk." Sirius decisively refused.
"We can protect our own." Harry defended. "We protected the Sorcerer's Stone, solved the Chamber of Secrets incident, and captured Peter Pettigrew."
"But it's not a school, it's not Hogwarts, Harry."
"The fact that you can solve those things proves that you are excellent, but in the end, it all happened under Dumbledore's eyes. No matter what happened, he would have a way to protect you."
"But it's different now. There must be dangers in the cave. The only one you can rely on is yourselves." Sirius's heartfelt words left Harry speechless.
Sirius turned around and was about to face Kreacher when he was grabbed by Louis on the side.
"You are right, Sirius, but you also know that it is full of dangers. If you go alone, will you let Harry and us who are hiding here worry about your safety?" Louis said, "I know you You are powerful, but we have to prove your innocence to Peter Pettigrew to help you regain your freedom, not to send you to death."
"What do you want, Louis." Sirius looked at the boy with interest.
"I think we must go with you, and not just us." Louis pointed at Harry and then at himself, "and Dumbledore, so that everything is safe."
