Chapter 990: Your own Horcrux

"Kyle, are you really sure?"

On a certain street in London, Minerva McGonagall looked at Kyle and said worriedly: "I am not against you treating Frank and Alice. In fact, I also want to revive them."

"But Kyle, I must remind you that the Ministry of Magic now strictly prohibits all topics related to Horcruxes. Once they find out, I'm afraid they will cause trouble for you."

"Don't worry, principal, they can't tell." Kyle said with a smile, then walked to the disguised department store window and walked straight in.

Principal McGonagall was still a little hesitant, but Kyle had already walked in. She didn't say anything in the end, but just quickened her pace and followed.

There were many people in the waiting room, Neville and Mrs. Longbottom were at the front, and Professor Sasia was also there.

Even the Minister of Magic, Amelia Bones, and the Head of the Auror Office, Kingsley Shacklebolt, were here.

They all seemed to be waiting for Kyle.

"Kyle, is it true?" Amelia Bones walked over first and almost bumped into a witch with a Golden Snitch stuck in her left nostril.

"I heard you found the cure to the Cruciatus Curse."

Kyle didn't hear clearly what Bones said.

His attention was now focused on the witch and the snitch wings that fluttered around her mouth from time to time.

Catching a snitch through your nostrils?

What on earth did she do?

Kyle always thought that Harry's behavior of catching the snitch with his mouth was already very niche.

It must be said that St. Mungo's always opened his eyes.

It wasn't until someone touched him from behind that Kyle came back to his senses.

"Minister Bones, I don't know if this is the solution to the Cruciatus Curse." Principal McGonagall asked in a clear voice: "To be honest, I only got the news last night, and I haven't had time to confirm it yet. ”

"Ah, it's not really a cure for the curse." Kyle immediately continued what she said: "It just has a certain restraining effect on the Cruciatus Curse and repairs the broken soul."

"That's pretty impressive," Bones said, but there was still doubt in his voice.

Then Mrs. Longbottom stepped forward and expressed her gratitude to Kyle again, and then everyone walked upstairs together.

Fifth floor, Spell Damage Department.

The Longbottoms were in one of the wards.

When the door was opened, the two of them looked over at the same time.

Kyle had been here once before, but compared to that time, they looked more haggard now, their faces were thin, their eyes were particularly big, and their hair was white, messy and dry.

It seemed that there were too many people coming in, which made them feel uneasy. Neville's mother shrank into the corner and looked timidly at Neville in the crowd.

She was holding something in her hand.

Kyle got closer and saw clearly that it was a piece of super bubble gum candy wrapper.

"As you can see," Mrs. Longbottom said a little tiredly. "They're like this all the time now, irrational most of the time."

"But there are also times when she is awake." Neville suddenly said: "Many times she can recognize me, but she just can't speak... I can feel it."

"She will recognize you from now on." Kyle patted his shoulder.

Neville's face turned red visibly, and he didn't know whether it was because of nervousness or excitement.

Or maybe both.

"Okay, irrelevant personnel please leave." Sasia said with a serious expression.

No one moved. Amelia Bones and Kingsley Shacklebolt stood there with no intention of going out, and it was impossible for them to go out.

Minerva McGonagall didn't move either, but the healer who was originally here was squeezed out of the room somehow.

The accompanying Auror also went out and stood guard outside the door.

"Start now?" Kingsley asked quietly.

"Okay." Kyle nodded, "I can just make it back for dinner."

He took out his wand and everyone around him immediately held their breath, everyone looked nervous.

"Then, let's get some sleep first." Kyle waved the wand in his hand, and the two people who were still a little scared immediately closed their eyes and passed out on the bed.

A red light emerged from the tip of Kyle's wand.

"The soul is out of body!"

The red light penetrated Frank Longbottom's forehead, and there was no movement.

Meanwhile Kyle stopped moving.

At this time, the scene he saw in front of him had completely changed.

He seemed to have arrived in a huge, fragmented space without any color or boundaries.

It's like facing a dozen screens of different sizes, with various images playing on each screen.

This is the Imperius Curse... Those 'screens' he is seeing now are the soul of Frank Longbottom.

Kyle knew that he was in Mr. Longbottom's consciousness, but at the same time he was not out of his body.

It's amazing.

"Now just keep them apart..."

Kyle tried moving his wand.

"...Switch!"

He whispered a magic spell, but his voice was so low that even Minister Bones, who was standing next to him, only heard the last two words.

Then, Frank Longbottom suddenly began to twitch unconsciously, as if something was moving through his body.

Bones couldn't help but frown, but finally held back and said nothing.

…

This process took a little longer than expected and was boring at the same time.

The two of them were lying down, and Kyle stood in front of them, not speaking or making any unnecessary movements, except moving his wand.

Fortunately, everyone in the room was patient, and no one was impatient until noon.

Bones and Kingsley were patient, but only Sassia was not bored. As a therapist, she could clearly perceive the changes in the Longbottom couple.

Every time Kyle moved his wand, she would gently turn her eyes, and her eyes would become brighter and brighter.

…

Outside the door, Neville stood at the edge of the corridor, looking at the closed door, holding a crumpled candy wrapper tightly in his hand.

He also came out, and was driven out by Mrs. Longbottom as an irrelevant person.

He had been like this for a whole morning, with his head down, standing motionlessly by the wall, nervous, afraid, expectant... all kinds of emotions mixed together, making it impossible for him to calm down.

But he didn't know what was happening in the room, so he could only worry and fiddle with the candy wrapper in his hand unconsciously.

"Click..."

I don't know how long it took, the door opened.

Kyle came out, followed by Amelia Bones' voice.

"I dare say the whole wizarding world will go crazy if your method really works... Merlin, First Class, I can promise you."

"I'm not doing all this for a badge, Minister," Kyle said, "and their bodies are too weak, it may take some time for them to wake up, so let's talk about it then."

Neville first glanced into the room.

His parents were lying on the bed, sleeping quietly.

Neville's heart skipped a beat.

Kyle succeeded!

Although they hadn't woken up yet, Neville keenly noticed the changes in the two.

It was a kind of calmness he had never seen before. Sleeping was a torture for them before, and they would be awakened by nightmares in a short time.

But now they are like... just like... Harry who just came back from Quidditch training.

Because they are too tired, they can fall asleep in bed and sleep until dawn.

This may not be accurate, but the meaning is similar. He is sure that his parents will never be awakened by nightmares this time.

But when Neville turned his head with joy and wanted to thank Kyle, there was no one in the corridor in front of him.

When he leaned over the door and looked inside, Kyle had already left St. Mungo's and returned to Hogwarts.

Going back now, he can just catch up with lunch.

After working all morning, he was really a little hungry.

...

"Whoosh!"

Accompanied by a slight sound, two people appeared out of thin air on the Hogsmeade platform.

"Aren't we waiting for the principal?"

"No, the principal should go to see Minister Bones."

Kyle threw away the glass bottle in his hand, and walked into the school gate with Connor one after the other.

To be honest, Connor has not fully recovered until now.

"They...are they okay?"

"Yes, what's wrong."

"Nothing, it just feels different from what I imagined."

"That's for the people who see it, I'm really tired." Kyle touched his wrist, which was still shaking slightly.

After using more than twenty Horcrux spells in a row...his wrist felt like it was being pricked by needles, and he could hardly hold his wand.

Including this time when he and Connor came back, they also asked Principal McGonagall to help make a door key instead of using Apparition.

The last time he was so tired was when he met Voldemort in the Hesperidian Islands.

Kyle couldn't help rubbing his buzzing head, mainly because he didn't expect Frank Longbottom's soul to be so broken.

No wonder Neville only said that his mother was awake, and never said that his father... His soul was broken into more than a dozen pieces, it was strange that he could wake up.

"But Minister Bones said that he would help you apply for the Order of Merlin, First Class Medal." Connor whispered: "You will probably become the youngest recipient of the Order of Merlin soon."

"This... Just listen to it." Kyle said casually, and didn't seem to take this highest honor seriously.

"What does this mean?" Kanna frowned. "If you can solve the three unforgivables, you can definitely get a first-class medal."

"The premise is that this method can be popularized, just like the wolfsbane potion." Kyle explained, "But the fact is, I definitely can't teach this method to others."

"Because of the Horcrux?"

"Yes." Kanna nodded, "The essence of this spell is the Horcrux. If someone discovers this and makes a slight change, they can easily master the method of making Horcruxes."

"The magic world has never lacked talented wizards." Kanna looked up at the Hogwarts castle, "I'm not so arrogant as to think that no one can understand this spell. This is impossible."

Kanna sighed softly and felt sorry for Kanna.

He could have gotten the Order of Merlin, First Class…

“Nothing.” Kyle seemed to have seen through her thoughts and said with a smile, “That thing isn’t even made of gold, and it’s worthless. I got something better.”

“What is it?”

“Just something to brag about.” Kyle raised his eyebrows, “If I hadn’t graduated yet, I might have won another special contribution award for the school… That one can only be displayed in the trophy display room, but at least it’s made of gold… I don’t know if the professor can get the medal.”

"Definitely not." Connor smiled and said, "Don't forget that those who win the Special Contribution Award for the school can get an extra 200 points. If you get it, who will you give these points to?"

"Of course Hufflepuff."

"The remaining three colleges will not agree."

As the two talked, they walked forward and soon arrived in front of the castle.

"By the way." Connor suddenly thought of something when she stood at the door of the auditorium and stopped.

"You have made a Horcrux for Longbottom this time. If it takes a long time, will it be discovered?" She lowered her voice and asked:

"Also, what did you choose as the container of their souls? I have been watching from the side and you have never left."

"You finally asked this." Kyle grinned. "They themselves are containers. This is the inspiration I got from Harry."

"Potter?"

"Yes, he is Voldemort's Horcrux." Kyle nodded and explained: "I was thinking, if a wizard can become another wizard's Horcrux, why can't he become his own.

"So I tried to make Mr. Longbottom his own Horcrux. If it doesn't work, I will break a few bones as I thought before."

"But I succeeded!"

Kanna frowned, a little confused.

"But he is only one person, but you made more than a dozen Horcruxes?"

"Just separate them. "Kyle said.

The space without color boundaries he saw before was Mr. Longbottom's consciousness, or his soul.

Anyway, he didn't need to avoid risks. He just packed up the fragments, stuffed one into the 'head', and one each into the 'hand' and 'leg'. He could always get rid of them by squeezing them together.

The advantage of doing this is obvious, because all the soul fragments are in one container, so there will be no personality split like Voldemort.

They are still the original Longbottom, and there will be no change.

But the bad part... well, it can't be said to be bad.

The advantage of the Horcrux is that the soul fragments will continue with the container... In theory, a stone can always If the container continues to exist, the soul fragments attached to it will also exist forever.

But if the container is replaced by a wizard, then this advantage will no longer exist.

But this also depends on the situation.

After all, Kyle just wants the Longbottoms to wake up again, not to create two immortal wizards.

According to Kyle's original idea, he was going to stuff the separated soul fragments into their bones, directly in the body, and it would not be visible from the outside.

After that, after the people from the Ministry of Magic left, they would take out the bones, either destroy them directly, or give them to Principal McGonagall to help seal them.

However, this method may cause a certain degree of harm to the Longbottoms, but fortunately this problem was perfectly solved.
