Chapter 494 Master and Slave
"You must have killed him, right?" Sirius said through gritted teeth, kicked Kreacher to the ground, waved his wand and shouted.
"Heart-breaking and bone-cutting!"
The cursed beam hit Kreacher's body in just an instant, and the old house elf suddenly let out a shrill scream and rolled on the ground trembling.
Everyone else present was completely unprepared for Sirius's outburst.
"Are you crazy? Sirius!" Lupine rushed forward quickly without any hesitation, stopping Sirius who was still thinking about torturing Kreacher.
"Let me go, I must teach it a lesson today!" Sirius' eyes turned red, and he angrily tried to break away from Lupine's control.
Lupine didn't dare to hurt Sirius, so he could only pull him to force him, but he was hit in the stomach with a heavy punch from Sirius without warning.
After getting rid of Lupin, Sirius took a few steps forward, his eyes red, waved his wand at Kreacher again, and shouted loudly.
"Broken to pieces"
"Expelliarmus!"
Halfway through Sirius' spell, another voice spoke.
The crimson magic beam flashed past, and Sirius' body seemed to have been hit hard. He leaned back and hit the wall next to him. The wand in his hand fell out of his hand, spinning and falling into Ivan's hand.
Ivan took the wand but did not dare to neglect it at all, because Sirius was obviously not in the right state at this time.
It didn't take long for Ivan to guess that Sirius was affected by the Horcrux, and he immediately shouted to Lupine and others.
"Quick! Take the locket in his hand now!"
Lupine also regained his composure at this time and pounced directly on Sirius to seize the Horcrux.
But the latter didn't know why he went crazy and tried his best to protect the locket in his hand. The two struggled and struggled with each other, and the locket fell to the ground with a slight sound.
Harry saw the right moment and picked up Slytherin's locket, preparing to throw it to Ivan with his backhand.
When he was about to take his hand out, Harry paused suddenly. There was a faint tingling sensation from the scar on his head. The locket in his hand seemed to have some kind of magic power, making him reluctant to let go.
Fortunately, Ivan stepped forward in time to take away the Horcrux, and Harry recovered from the weird state just now.
"Wake up, Harry, are you okay?" Ivan looked at him worriedly.
Harry shook his head and said that there was nothing wrong with him except for the pain in his scar. Then he suddenly thought of Sirius and ran over worriedly.
The Horcrux trembled uneasily in Ivan's hand. Ivan vaguely felt that his brain was being invaded, and subconsciously activated Occlumency. This feeling soon disappeared without a trace.
Obviously, the Occlumency Technique that has been upgraded to the sixth level is still very powerful, and the Horcrux cannot have any impact on him.
Sirius, who was controlled by Lupine, returned to normal at this time. He clearly remembered all his actions just now, but he felt so strange.
"I'm sorry, Lupin, I don't know what happened just now. Didn't it hurt you?" Sirius looked at Harry and Ivan awkwardly and said apologetically to Lupine.
"That punch you gave was quite hard! But I'm not that fragile!" Lu Ping smiled and said jokingly, not paying attention to the little episode just now.
Then, Lupine's eyes turned to the Horcrux in Ivan's hand, and he continued speaking with certainty. "It seems like this locket has affected your mood."
Sirius and Harry also looked over.
"Yes! Lupine is right, this thing will affect people's minds. Professor Lockhart was harmed by the same thing last school year!" Ivan explained while playing with the Horcrux in his hand. One sentence.
As far as he knew, every Horcrux made by Voldemort had the ability to confuse people's minds.
Based on the time of Regulus's death, Slytherin's locket should be a Horcrux made during Voldemort's heyday. It is much more powerful than the diary and the crown, so it can unknowingly affect the strength. of Sirius.
Of course, this is also related to the fact that Sirius was already out of control emotionally after hearing what happened to Regulus. The Horcrux only added fuel to the flames, intensifying his emotions and causing him to become crazy.
"This thing is too dangerous, we'd better destroy it now!" Sirius said very solemnly, recalling the feeling of all kinds of evil thoughts rushing into his heart just now, he was still a little scared now.
Ivan nodded. It was not difficult for him to destroy the Horcrux, and it was not the first time he had done such a thing.
"But I think you forgot to apologize to the other person!" Ivan did not take action immediately, but looked at Kreacher, who was trembling on the ground.
"Kreacher is a bad elf, Master Regulus. It should be Kreacher who should die." The old house elf huddled humbly in the corner, muttering to himself, with tears and snot in his eyes. It flows downward, looking very pitiful.
"You mean you want me to apologize to Kreacher?" Sirius frowned, somewhat reluctantly.
"Sirius, I also think you should apologize. You almost killed it just now!" Harry said in a helpful voice. He looked at the pitiful house elf lying on the ground and couldn't help but sympathize with him, so he continued. .
"Kreacher didn't do anything wrong, right? He did his best and could only obey Regulus's orders. He is a great house elf!"
"Come on, you probably forgot how it called you before!" Sirius curled his lips and looked at Kreacher with a slightly dissatisfied look in his eyes.
Sirius really didn't understand why Regulus chose to drink that potion himself. He could have let Kreacher do it instead, as long as he was careful not to wake up the Inferi.
Therefore, Sirius still has some complaints about this house elf, thinking that it did not protect his younger brother well.
Ivan shook his head secretly. Of course he could guess some of Sirius's thoughts. More importantly, he saw the humble status of the house elf from Sirius's reaction.
Sirius was willing to apologize immediately to Lupine who had been punched, but he was not willing to do the same thing to Kreacher who was almost killed by him.
This is not to say that there is a problem with his character, but that years of lessons have unknowingly shaped the ideas of most wizards. In their eyes, house elves are like slaves and can be killed at will.
How can a master apologize to a slave?
