Chapter 1009 Kreacher and the Black Family

Compared with Harry's troubles, it was obvious that after solving a problem, Fan Lin seemed more relaxed than ever. Although he was curious about why the four founders' relics became incomplete, this did not affect Fan Lin's current situation. Feeling.

But Kreacher is always a problem.

According to his memory, Kreacher could be said to have been a great help to Voldemort.

Because Sirius had no affection for his family, Kreacher only reminded him of the family he hated, and he was indifferent to the house elf by calling him a "useless piece of shit".

In fact, both Hermione and Dumbledore had warned him to be kind and respectful to Kreacher, but Sirius did not do so. Kreacher, who had been trying to escape from the house, finally seized this opportunity on Christmas Eve. When Sirius yelled at him to "get out", Kreacher misinterpreted it to mean "get out of that house".

This led Kreacher to the residence of Narcissa Malfoy, the only member of the Black family for whom he had some respect, and so Kreacher began to serve two masters.

But he did not reveal the location of the Order to the Malfoys and prohibited him from revealing some of the Order's secret plans. He is bound by the elf's magic, which means it cannot disobey the direct orders of its master, Sirius. However, in Sirius's eyes, they were all trivial matters, and there was no need to consider not allowing him to tell them, or leaking the fact that Harry regarded Sirius as his parents and brother to the enemy.

Voldemort used this information to ask Harry to get the prophecy ball. Kreacher, following Voldemort's orders, injured Buckbeak, and Sirius was upstairs tending to Buckbeak when Harry emerged from the fireplace in Grimmauld Place.

When Voldemort sent false information to Harry's heart that Sirius was being tortured, Harry immediately appeared in the fire in the fireplace in the house. Kreacher lied and said that his master had not returned from the Department of Mysteries. In this way, Harry was deceived into the Department of Mysteries, and Sirius followed him, but unfortunately died.

It can be said that from beginning to end, this house elf played a key role. Fanlin had no doubt that if no unexpected situation occurred, Kreacher would still make this choice no matter how many times he repeated it.

But in fact, this is not Kreacher's fault alone. It can be said that Sirius's death was entirely the result of his own consequences and the bad environment.

Kreacher has lived alone in the ancestral home of the Black family for more than ten years, and there are also Voldemort's Horcruxes and even Mrs. Black placed here.

A wizard from a traditional dark wizard family.

And Kreacher also became abnormal because of Mrs. Black's influence.

Speaking of which, for the Black family, Sirius is definitely the worst brat.

Walburga's eldest son, Sirius Black, was a great disappointment to her because he did not share the ideology of blood composition and was sorted into Gryffindor house at Hogwarts instead of the others. Letling.

What's more serious is that when Sirius grew up, he began to openly rebel against his own family, especially his mother. He decorated his room with pictures of Muggle motorcycles and posters of Muggle girls in bikinis, affixing them to the walls with permanent sticking spells.

When he was sixteen, Sirius left home and lived with the Potter family. As a result, he was disinherited and removed from the Blake family tree. Walburga personally removed his son's name from the tapestry. She seemed to have a habit of removing the names of people she displeased from the Black family tree: for example, after Sirius ran away from home, she removed the name of her brother Alphard because he had sponsored Sirius after that. According to Kreacher, Walburga was heartbroken after Sirius' new departure, but still removed his name.

However, Walburga's youngest son Regulus followed the family tradition and entered Slytherin House, becoming her favorite child.

During the First Wizarding War, Regulus became a member of the Death Eaters. Although neither Orion nor Walburga were followers of Voldemort, according to Sirius, they both believed that Voldemort's proposition was correct, but when they saw that Voldemort would do whatever it took to gain power, they were both timid and flinched.

Regulus was killed while trying to destroy one of Voldemort's Horcruxes in 1979, leaving no children or heirs.

Because Regulus prohibited Kreacher from telling anyone about this incident, Mrs. Black always believed that he was killed because he wanted to escape from the Death Eaters. As for the disappearance, it was particularly ridiculous for a wizard.

It can be said that Mrs. Black is stubborn enough and decisive enough, but from a different standpoint, this is just an inevitable choice. The ideology of a pure-blood aristocratic wizard cannot tolerate a cancer like Sirius.

But Regulus inherited this very well in the early stage, and Regulus also discovered the bad things about Voldemort. Fan Lin suspected that Mrs. Black did not join the Death Eaters because of this consideration.

The Black family is powerful enough and has a long history, and several descendants of the Black family, whether Sirius, Regulus, Narcissa and Bella, are among the best in the magical world.

But the Black family is in a miserable situation now.

Narcissa has integrated into the Malfoy family, and Bella is devoted to Voldemort. As a woman, it is impossible for her to inherit the title of the Black family.

And Sirius was extremely resistant. For other wizards, the Black family was definitely synonymous with honor. But when it came to Sirius, Fanlin felt that the possibility of this being the biggest stain was as high as 100%.

Otherwise, Sirius would not have left the Black family, and he would not have been chosen by Gryffindor when he was at Hogwarts.

Fan Lin has always been curious about why the Sorting Hat has such great magic power to distinguish a person's heart. In Fan Lin's view, the age of a child is at most a matter of will. As for what he will grow up to, it depends on everything. It depends on the environment the day after tomorrow.

The fact that Sirius was chosen by the Sorting Hat in this way may be due to Sirius's rebellious heart. Otherwise, with Sirius's temper, how could he have endured such a big conflict with the Black family until he was sixteen?

And before that, as a pure-blood wizard noble, it was simply unbelievable that Mrs. Black did not kick Sirius out early.

The conclusion drawn is that Sirius is definitely the spoiled one.

The big responsibility lies with the Black family themselves. After thinking that Sirius had no hope, they focused on Regulus, but what they got back was still a fantasy after all.

In the end, apart from an old house and shabby decorations, all that was left of the Black family was Kreacher, a loyal but somewhat insane guy.

It's hard to say that this is not a choice of the times. Some people will always be eliminated, and the Black family, which has a long history and does not know how to adapt, is undoubtedly a tragedy. (To be continued)
