[HP Draco] Attendant

Chapter 168 chapter·16

By the fourth cup, Dumbledore couldn't stand still.Madeleine subconsciously wanted to take the cup, but Tom said coldly: "If you want to drink now, the stone basin will only be filled with liquid again."

"Madeline Burke, don't waste his efforts."

He looked very disdainful. After saying this, he was silent for a while, and then said: "I'm tired."

He disappeared, probably back in the diary.

"Madeleine..." Dumbledore shouted tremblingly, Madeleine looked at him, and Dumbledore continued, "Please..."

Madeleine took the glass from him, understood what he meant, reached out, and took the glass.Without saying a word, she scooped up the fluorescent liquid with a stiff movement, then put it near the trembling Dumbledore's mouth, and fed it to him.Dumbledore stretched out his hand and pushed Madeleine's hand, seeming to be frightened: "No...no..."

He was panting, his face wrinkled in pain, and Madeleine still mechanically scooped up the liquid and put it to his mouth.Dumbledore's hands were weak: "No—I don't want to...!"

His voice became hoarse, and Madeleine tried a little harder, so to speak, into his mouth.There was still at least half of the liquid in the stone basin. After Madeleine finished feeding the cup, Dumbledore let out a scream of pain. Madeleine paused for a while and went to fill another cup. At this time, Dumbledore He opened his blue eyes, always smiling, that were now filled with pain.

"No...Miss Madeleine..." He seemed to be pleading. It was completely different from the state where he had just asked Madeleine to give him the liquid. The pain of the liquid changed Dumbledore a bit. He was begging Madeleine wholeheartedly. Lin.But even so, he didn't let Madeleine continue to drink the liquid.

"There are still a few glasses." Madeleine heard herself say, when she stretched out her hand to give Dumbledore a drink, she thought in her heart that if it was her, she should be able to survive the pain.

Dumbledore resisted, but opened his mouth anyway, curled up on the ground, scratching the floor.Madeleine took another glass of liquid, and the liquid reflected her face, and she saw that she had no expression—

Ah, that's what it means.

At that time, Madeleine understood a little why Dumbledore would say that she was very similar to Tom, but this emotion did not last long. She helped Dumbledore up and gave him a drink again—she realized that the crystal cup It was difficult to pour it in, so I took out my potion bottle with a larger capacity, but because the mouth is small, it is very convenient to pour liquid.

Dumbledore refused in pain, his glasses slipped from the bridge of his nose, Madeleine prepared a glass of potion again, Dumbledore gasped, and seemed to want to scratch his throat: "Water..."

Madeleine froze for a moment, not quite understanding what he meant, she squatted down, and locked the liquid in Dumbledore again.

"No! No!!" Dumbledore refused, he sounded in pain, and Madeleine could understand his feelings, Madeleine looked at the pool: "The last glass, sir."

As she said, Dumbledore shook his head: "Let me go, let me die—please let me—"

"No sir." Madeleine felt like a machine gun shot from her mouth in an instant, and she pressed the last bit of liquid to Dumbledore's lips: "You still have a lot of things to do, you can't die now —Come, sir, drink this last glass, and we may go home."

"No...no...let me go...stop...stop all this..." Dumbledore said, like a powerless little girl, pushed Madeleine's hand, Madeleine didn't speak, Force Dumbledore to drink the last potion.After the last sip was taken, Dumbledore slowly closed his eyes, Madeleine stood up, and looked into the stone basin——

The Slytherin pendant was in the stone basin without the green liquid.

"Jage, can you come here?" Madeleine put on dragon leather gloves and called out to her house-elf. She picked up the pendant, thought of something, and said, "I don't know why...but bring a cup Come clean water."

She couldn't have sent Dumbledore to a lake with a pool of dead bodies.

Jager appeared next to Madeleine. He brought a bottle of water. He had been with Madeleine for ten years. He naturally understood what Madeleine meant, and he carefully helped Dumbledore up.Dumbledore closed his eyes tightly, looking as if he was dead, Jager carefully put water on Dumbledore's lips, Dumbledore reacted a bit, his eyelids trembled slightly, and his lips were stained with a little water .Dumbledore seemed to have been in the desert for a long time, he raised his hand, wanting to drink - however, the water disappeared.

Madeleine froze for a moment, and probably understood that in this cave, all water sources except the lake would disappear, so the spell of clear water like a spring would probably be useless.From this point of view, although the effect of the green pool of liquid is not immediately fatal, it can make people feel extremely painful and thirsty.If it were anyone else, they would be very thirsty for water, and after the painful fainting passed, they would crawl to the lake with their dry throats to drink the water in the lake.

But sadly, it was Madeleine who came here.

"Jage, take Dumbledore to his office." Madeleine walked to Dumbledore and helped him up with both hands. At this moment, she heard Dumbledore mutter softly: "Water..."

"There will be water soon."

Madeline replied, nodding to Jager.Jager hadn't been here before, so he couldn't come here until Madeleine arrived, but the house-elf needed to obey the master's orders, so he would come if Madeleine asked him to come.

You guessed it right, this place can't be apparated either, only house elves can really come and go freely.

...but Voldemort probably didn't know that, in fact, Tom didn't realize that the house-elf was not using Apparation but another spell when he noticed that Madeleine always used Jager to move around Hogwarts .

They immediately appeared in Dumbledore's office, Jager disappeared for a moment, and reappeared with water.The phoenix that Madeleine hated was not so annoying at this time, it was watching here quietly when Dumbledore appeared in the office, Jager helped Dumbledore drink water, Madeleine Holding Dumbledore's hand: "I need to draw some blood to see your current physical condition. That potion must have more than one effect... I will find the godfather later, please wait a moment gone."

Dumbledore opened his eyes. He was in his seat, watching Madeleine's movements weakly and silently.Madeleine drew blood, bottled it, stopped it, and finally told Jager to bring Snape - if he was alone.

It seemed that there was no one else around Snape, because he was brought to Dumbledore's side by Jager almost immediately. He frowned tightly, and while understanding the situation with Madeleine, he put his hand to stabilize the person's physical condition. The potion poured into Dumbledore's mouth can only be treated as an emergency.

Dumbledore will definitely want to go to the bathroom later.

Madeleine thought carelessly, she gave Dumbledore's blood to Snape, Snape nodded, put away the bottle of blood, and said through gritted teeth that Dumbledore was doing something wrong at this time. It was obvious that he was really angry when something like this happened. Madeleine sat aside, looking at the golden locket in her hand, without saying a word.

Through her gloves, she carefully touched the pendant box in her hand, and suddenly felt a strange feeling.

"Tom." She called out, and after a while, Tom slowly appeared, and Madeleine slowly picked up the necklace: "There is a problem..."

"What?" Tom followed Madeleine's line of sight and saw the locket. He paused for a moment, and suddenly appeared in front of the locket.Dumbledore looked down: "What's the matter?"

"Dumbledore, take a closer look." Tom shrank back, his face turned cold.Dumbledore froze for a moment. He tried to stand up, but Snape glared back into his seat viciously.He was really too weak, the potion just now could barely maintain his sanity and this little physical strength.

Madeleine brought the locket to Dumbledore. Dumbledore looked at it for a while, thought of something, and clicked his wand. His half-moon glasses returned to the bridge of his nose. He looked at it for a while, I don't know if it's an exclaimed voice: "This is... what a... amazing fake."

That's right.

The Slytherin locket in their hands is a fake, it lacks patterns, it's not too big, and it doesn't have the gorgeous Slytherin logo 'S', not only that, it's not even a Horcrux!

"It's ridiculous, you drank so much poison, and what you got in exchange was a fake!" Tom didn't know if he laughed angrily, and his robe danced for a moment.Dumbledore pondered for a while, and then asked a question: "But, Tom, will you go to great lengths... to protect a thing that isn't even a Horcrux?"

"..." Tom was silent for a while without answering the question.

Snape took the locket from Madeleine, he noticed something, opened the locket - inside was a piece of parchment.

Snape took it out—

"To the Dark Lord: I know I'm dead when you read this, but I want you to know: I discovered this secret of yours, and I have taken the real Horcrux and put it back as soon as possible. Destroy. I would risk my life for you to meet a mortal who is only a flesh and blood when you hit the opponent." Snape read, his brows tightened, he tightened his hands suddenly, and took a deep breath: " Signature is RAB."

"..." Dumbledore's eyes widened slightly, he seemed to be grasping something in his mind, he looked at Snape quietly for a while, and opened his mouth: "Miss Madeleine...please go and see." Go to the Order of the Phoenix."

"what?"

"Severus... Maybe you have to stay and help me adjust my body. I have something to do later." Dumbledore opened his mouth, helped his forehead, and then said, "Miss Madeleine, go Speak to Sirius... tell him... we have found Regulus' suicide note. Regulus Arcturus Black, that's his full name."

Snape didn't speak, he put the locket in Madeleine's hand.Tom was silent for a while, then said, "I remember he was a Death Eater."

"Yes." Dumbledore said: "Originally, Sirius thought he died in the research of black magic, but later he thought that Regulus was killed when he was afraid that Voldemort wanted to escape. In fact, I think so, too, that the Blacks did fear Voldemort in the later stages... But obviously, we were all wrong."

Dumbledore looked at the locket solemnly: "Miss Madeleine, please."

"...Yage, take me to the Order of the Phoenix." Madeleine shouted, Tom was silent for a while, and said, "Wait a minute."

Madeleine raised her hand and called Jager to stop.

Tom stared at the locket for a while, then opened his mouth again——

"Forget it, let's go."

Madeleine didn't quite understand Tom's psychological changes, she blinked, reached out her hand, and held Jacob's hand.

At first, Sirius didn't welcome Madeleine's arrival, but he and Madeleine went to a room alone.He doesn't like Tom, but that doesn't mean he doesn't like Madeleine. He scratched his hair and whispered hello to Madeleine.

Later, when he learned about Madeleine's Lytherin pendant, he was stunned for several minutes at first, repeatedly making sure that Madeleine was joking, and then snatched the golden fake pendant from Madeleine's hand with a roar. Pendant, staring at the parchment for a few minutes, suddenly, he turned into a big black dog and ran out of the room.Madeleine was silent for a while, then picked up the parchment thrown to the ground by Sirius, read it again, and folded it slowly.

She was sitting alone in her room, which was empty with no one else.

She is thinking.

If Regulus left the fake there, someone must have taken the real one away, but Regulus was dead, and if he guessed right, he should be among the dead underwater.The question is, who took the real thing and hid it.

[I have already taken the real Horcrux and will destroy it as soon as possible. 】

But destroying the Horcrux was not so easy. It was okay when Tom absorbed the gold cup, because the gold cup had been in Bock's house for a long time, and it was not contaminated with too many traces of black magic.

Ravenclaw's crown is because in the Room of Requirement, Voldemort firmly believes that no one can find the Room of Requirement, so he did not cast black magic on the crown... Maybe it was because he hadn't become Voldemort at that time, so he didn't pay much attention, but Dumbledore Lido still relied on Gryffindor's sword stained with the blood of the basilisk to destroy it.

Even that ring was able to absorb it smoothly only after Tom suppressed it and combined with the Order of the Phoenix to disperse its black magic influence.

In fact, Madeleine thinks that the diary itself is more difficult to deal with. He has his own consciousness and can take other people's bodies. Fortunately, he and Madeleine reached a consensus, but even so, he is still scary—because he Independent, separated from Voldemort, he was himself, never to be Voldemort again.

What is certain is that if Slytherin's Horcruxes were really destroyed...

"What are you thinking?" Tom didn't know when he sat beside Madeleine, and Madeleine looked at the dark and damp small room in front of her, and replied, "I was wondering where the real pendant is...Regu Ruth said to destroy it as soon as possible, could it have been destroyed?"

"No," Tom replied, "I don't feel it's ruined."

"..." Madeleine lowered her eyes slightly and said nothing quietly: "If someone takes away the locket after Mr. Regulus drank the poisonous water, then he should be able to save Mr. Regulus. "

"Unless he can't." Tom continued, and Madeleine nodded: "I'm thinking about this too...Dumbledore is old, and after drinking the poison, he fainted for a while because of the excessive pain. But Ray Unlike Mr. Gollus, he was young when he died, which means that he will probably be sober after drinking those potions, and he will rush to the lake to drink water-"

"We can exclude friends." Tom said: "Because it is impossible for friends to watch each other go to a dead end..."

"Apparition is probably not possible in that cave." Madeleine continued, "Although I have considered relatives...I want to ask Mrs. Black."

"But if my son died in front of me because of Voldemort's trap, I will definitely avenge him with grief." Tom propped his chin: "Obviously, we can also rule out this idea."

"The most important thing……"

"That's right, little Black, he is sure that this Horcrux will be destroyed as soon as possible, instead of being given to Voldemort as a gift."

Madeleine and Tom's thoughts swirled again, and they looked at the room without saying a word.After a while, Tom said: "If this is Black's house... it means that there used to be Regulus' room here."

Madeleine nodded and stood up. She wanted to call the house-elf Kechelle here, at least to ask him where Regulus' room was.

She went out and met Mrs. Weasley, who was cooking.The Weasley children and Hermione were upstairs, Madeleine thought for a moment, wandered to the porch, cast a silent spell, and pulled down the curtain hanging on the painting.An old lady wearing a black hat had her eyes closed, and following Madeleine's movements, she slowly opened them.

She quietly looked at Madeleine.

"Hello." Madeleine bowed slightly to her. The old lady was silent for a while and did not choose to speak. Madeleine continued: "My name is Madeleine Burke. I think you have heard... I It is the fiancée of Miss Narcissa Malfoy's child. I think at least I need to say hello to you when I come here, Mrs. Black."

The old lady lowered her eyes slightly, as if she knew Madeleine.

"I'd like to inquire about Mr. Regulus' room...if you don't mind."

The old lady raised her eyes again, she and Madeleine looked at each other for a long time, and asked, "Is Narcissa okay?"

"She is fine, and she is very happy with Mr. Malfoy." Madeleine replied, "Please believe that Mr. Malfoy will make the most correct choice—just like Mr. Regulus."

After hearing Regulus' name, the old lady drifted a little. She seemed to be wondering what Madeleine meant, and finally raised her hand slightly: "Go to the fifth floor, girl."

Madeleine thanked her and drew her curtains.Mrs. Black slowly closed her eyes and hid in the curtain.

The author has something to say:

...I always feel like I'm modeling Dumbledore in clay, so I went to refer to the original book

The original is also

In short, the Horcrux problem will be solved soon, leaving only the two most difficult living creatures.
