Chapter 198: Kreacher's friendship

The next second, the unprecedented anger occupied the brain of Sirius.
"Kelce!" he snarled loudly. "You actually watched Regulus die, and did nothing. He, he is still a child."
Although there is already a hunch, but until now, Sirius can't believe it, this is actually the truth of the death of Regulus.
The words of blame have not been finished yet, and the house elves are already punishing themselves.
When everyone did not respond, Kreacher had already fallen to the ground, slamming his head against the floor and exhausting all his strength.
"Block him, stop him!" Hermione screamed and turned her head and shouted at Sirius. "Don't you see how cruel this thing is, he can only obey! Regulus At that time he was ordered not to move, so he could only stand there and watch those things happen."
When he heard Hermione's words, Sirius was silent. He looked at the house elf who was looking for death with hatred. His eyes were full of anger.
Seeing Sirius didn't move, Harry hurriedly tried to stop Kreacher.
But it didn't work. The aging old house elf was so powerful that he desperately slammed his head to the ground.
If he doesn't stop it, he will soon kill himself here.
In the end, Avon had to cast a curse on him and he was forced to stop.
Kreacher lay on the ground, gasping, trembling, all the green crystals around the nose were green mucus, pale blood on the forehead, red eyes, bloodshot eyes, tears. His appearance was so tragic to the extreme, and Ivan had never seen such a poor sight.
"Sirius, we should be better to him," Hermione whispered, rubbing her tears with her back.
"You told me to be nice to him!" Sirius was in a low voice with a trace of cruelty. "He killed my brother. He watched Regulus die, but did nothing."
Look at what he is now, I can't wait to kill Kreacher.
"No, he doesn't think so." Hermione hurriedly argued, "Kleiche is a slave. He can only obey orders. Regulus ordered him to do so. He has no way to resist. Push all responsibility to In his body, this is very unfair. Look at his current appearance, the death of Regulus, for him, is cruel to all of us, it is difficult to accept."
Sirius opened his mouth and seemed to want to argue, but Hermione did not give him a chance.
"Sirius, I know the truth about the death of Regulus, which makes it difficult for you to accept, but from the information we have now, the idea of ​​Regulus has changed, this is the most important point!" Hermione "Sirius," just below, you told us what you think of him. But he is totally different from your impression. He is not weak at all. In order to protect Kreacher and protect the Black family, Regule Si is fighting against Voldemort. He is a hero, he even has courage than all the Gryffindos I know."
Sirius has no words to refute, and his brother's actions made him proud.
He suddenly thought of what Regulus had when he was a child. He often followed his and looked at himself with a gaze. Their relationship used to be very good. They once agreed to go to Hogwarts together and enter Slytherin.
But since I first went to Hogwarts to go to school, everything has changed since I entered Gryffindor College.
Sirius remembers that when he returned home on his first summer vacation, Regulus had a quarrel with him.
Since then, they have never said a word.
He always thought that Regulus was like a fool, became a Death Eater, and then died because of weakness and ignorance, but the truth is not at all.
Like himself, he is against Voldemort.
Although he did not openly resist and did not join the Order of the Phoenix, his work was more courageous and persevering than any member of the Order of the Phoenix.
Looking at Klee, who was lying on the floor and crying, Sirius had some feelings for the first time in his gaze. This house elf eventually accompanied Regus and took the pain alone.
It also takes a lot of courage. Sirius looks at Kreach with a complicated look. It seems that this house elf is finally regarded as a creature with the same sensitive emotions as human beings.
In the basement, the atmosphere is low and terrible.
After Hermione said those words, Sirius has been silent.
Kreacher silently kept tears, and by his side, Harry gasped and his face was as bad as ever.
Ai Wen sighed, he said slowly. "Kleiche, when Regulus was dragged into the lake by the bodies, you brought the pendant back and tried to destroy it, didn't you?"
"Yes, but Kreacher can't leave a trace on it." The house elf said sadly that he wanted to continue to punish himself, but he couldn't move. "Kelce tried all the methods, all the ways, but No one, no success. There are so many powerful magics on the box, Kreacher punishes himself, tries again, punishes himself, and tries again. Kreacher can't execute the order, Kreacher can't destroy the locket! Miss Lance’s disappearance made the hostess mad and mad. Kreacher knew everything but couldn’t tell her what happened, no, because the young Master Regulas banned Klipche from telling the hostess about the cave.

Kleecher was crying and had completely collapsed.
Beside him, Hermione looked at Kreacher and burst into tears, but he didn't dare to touch him again.
"I just destroyed this locket and helped you complete Regulus's last wish. You didn't blame it again." Ai Wen opened the ruined locket to Klee.
The eyes of the domestic elf slammed loudly, and they made a cry of surprise and pain. His eyes were as big as ever, and I watched Evan incredibly, looking at the locket in his hand.
After nearly half an hour, he gradually calmed down.
Kreacher twitched weakly and seemed to have no strength to cry.
Sirius, who has never spoken, calms down as well. He whispers to the house elf and says, "Get up, Kreacher, I have something to ask you."
"I want to dispel the magic on you now, don't hurt yourself any more." Ai Wen waved his wand and whispered, "The curse stops!"
Kreacher sat up and squinted like a child with his fist.
Then, he staggered to the front of Ai Wen, reached out and touched the lock box in the hands of Ai Wen, and immediately retracted.
"You, you helped Kreacher complete the command of Master Regulus, you destroyed this locket!" Kreacher couldn't believe it, the face showed a relief expression for the first time.
He looked at Avon Hermione's gaze, not the kind of disgust and disdain.
He seems to have forgotten their Muggle origins and bowed to Ai Wen, Harry, and Hermione.
Although the action looks a bit funny, there is no perfunctory between the looks.
Ai Wen knows that because he destroyed the Slytherin locket and helped Kreacher complete the order of Regulus, he finally got the friendship of this house elf.
Like Dobby, Kreacher now respects him from the heart.
This is indeed a happy thing. This may be the most positive and optimistic change in destroying this Horcrux.
Although Ai Wen does not know, what can a friendship of a domestic elf use?
Maybe at a critical moment, it will come in handy! (To be continued.)
