Chapter 41: Going to the Cave
We will find Regulus. Harry said suddenly.
The cave where Voldemort hid the locket may be really difficult to enter, or even dangerous. But they are different. With Kreacher who has been there, they don't need to face any traps ahead.
The only thing they need to face is the Inferi.
And the Inferi are afraid of fire, and they don't need to drink the potion in the stone basin. They don't need to worry at all because their magic ability has not been weakened.
Kreacher's crying stopped abruptly, and he raised his head suddenly. Find Master Regulus?
Yes, Master Regulus must be found!
As long as he can do it, Kreacher is willing to do anything!
Do we need to chop off Kreacher's head? Kreacher said flatteringly.
No need, you just need to take us to the cave. Harry was full of black lines.
That is, we don't even need your help to go into the cave.
You know, just last month, the three of us broke through the magic traps set by all the professors and Dumbledore at Hogwarts alone. Ron said to Kreacher half proudly and half comfortingly.
Something unexpected happened, Kreacher actually nodded to Ron's words!
Harry and Draco on the side covered their foreheads at the same time and made a headache expression.
They all regretted that they had not told Ron the truth about the traps left by other professors before. They were all very simple.
We may not have a chance to go yet.
After we tell Sirius, they are likely to abandon us. Draco poured cold water on him.
You can't tell Master Sirius! He is a bad boy!
Kreacher promised Master Regulus that he would not tell his family about what happened in the cave. Kreacher suddenly lost his temper and rubbed his eyes with his fists like a child and said.
Regulus just forbade you to tell your family.
We will tell Sirius about this matter, and it does not conflict with Regulus's order. Harry said gently, in a coaxing tone. Then Harry raised his own questions. Besides, didn't Sirius escape from the Black family at that time? He was not even in the family tree.
He was not a family member, why didn't you tell Sirius about this?
He was in the Order of the Phoenix at that time, and he was obviously opposed to Voldemort. Harry was actually a little confused. Kreacher was obviously an old elf. He could have misinterpreted Regulus's meaning in this matter.
Even when Regulus ordered him to leave him alone, he directly misinterpreted his meaning and took Regulus and the locket away together.
But Harry didn't dare to say these words, for fear that Kreacher would go crazy again.
The highest law of house elves is the master's order. Kreacher likes Master Regulus and can't misinterpret the master's meaning! Kreacher said painfully.
He suddenly fell to the ground again and burst into tears.
Harry suddenly felt that Kreacher was very pitiful. If he was like Dobby, he would have the flexible moral bottom line of the house elf version and arbitrarily misinterpret the master's orders.
In this way, Regulus can survive and be taken away by Kreacher with the locket.
Maybe Regulus will take the locket to Dumbledore.
Their mother will not become a madman.
Sirius can also return to the Black family and stay with his family.
Even, because of the Black family's defection, Voldemort's forces may collapse.
Leading to Voldemort's early defeat. In this way, Harry's family can also be spared.
When Harry goes to school eleven years later, he will probably still have his parents with him.
Maybe he already knew Ron and Draco.
Even if history does not change, Harry's family will still be found by Voldemort.
But the direction of Sirius's case that year is probably different.
Maybe it will be retried under the operation of his younger brother, and the truth serum will be forcibly injected.
In this way, Harry may even be adopted by Sirius.
Even if Dumbledore refuses, Sirius will probably buy a house on Privet Drive directly and grow up with Harry.
Harry shook his head, awakening from his beautiful reverie.
He knew that he could not dwell on the past, and history could not be changed.
With the Resurrection Stone, when his knowledge level was really good enough, he would ask Ryan to take him to the place where the Resurrection Stone was hidden.
In this way, his parents, including Sirius's brother, could also be resurrected!
After about ten minutes, Kreacher calmed down again. He climbed onto his little nest, which had become very clean, and burped from time to time.
Do we want our own cave?
I just thought about it, we can take Kreacher there without telling Sirius.
What are we afraid of as far as the Inferi are concerned.
Light and warmth are their nemesis.
Moreover, even if we take Regulus's body into consideration, we cannot use spells such as Flame Blazing, and the power of Luminescence may not be enough.
But we can use Lumos
Maxima (enhanced illumination spell.) Ron said suddenly.
From the fact that he said so much in one breath, it can be seen that he probably held it back for a long time.
Yes, why didn't I think of that.
Those Inferi are only used to deal with people who lose their magical abilities after drinking the potion.
The reason why Voldemort is not worried is that there will be multiple people working together, one person drinks, and the other person deals with the Inferi.
In the previous levels, such as the ship, maybe only one person can ride.
But we are different. We can go directly to the island through Kreacher.
We can even use lumos
solem (a variation of the illumination spell) to create a beam of sunlight.
Why should we be afraid of the Inferi in this way! Draco said.
Ron's words were like a key that opened his blind spot.
As for the Inferi, what are they afraid of!
Kreacher still remembers that place.
Kreacher can take Master Potter and his friends there!
Master Regulus stayed there for so long, and the water was so cold, he needed Kreacher! Kreacher also said excitedly. The three of them stared at Harry with excited eyes at this moment.
If it is really that simple, I don't mind going there.
Kreacher, if there is danger, can you bring us back? Harry said.
He was tortured by the eyes of Kreacher and others and couldn't help but speak.
No problem, Kreacher went there later and wanted to find Master Regulus.
But Kreacher couldn't do it.
Kreacher will bring Master Potter and their friends back as long as there is danger!
Well, let's go back to our rooms, take what we need, and then gather here.
We'd better take some flammable things, wood, rags, etc.
Put them in the bag Draco's father gave me. Harry said.
However, Draco and Ron, and even Kreacher did not move.
They all looked at Kreacher's nest, the rags at the same time.
