Genius in a Second to Remember If You Want To Go? To provide you with exciting novels to read.
Although Elwyn did not know how to use these black magic spells, this book was indeed very useful as a reference. The black magic spells recorded in it gave him a lot of inspiration.
Other than the Soul Vessel and the Three Great Unforgivable Curses, Elwyn had never heard of the other black magic spells recorded in the book. Through this book, he understood that if the Lord Voldemort or the Death Eaters were to use those spells, he would know how to break them.
He flipped through it for a while and suddenly raised his head.
Elwyn suddenly remembered that this was not the time to read leisurely. Dumbledore and Sirius would be back soon, and he did not have much time left.
They would not allow him to come into contact with such black magic books, especially when this book, 'Uncovering the Secrets of the Cutting-Edge Black Magic', contained the method of making Soul Vessels.
He could not read them here. He had to take these black magic books with him and study them slowly when there was no one else around.
Elwyn frowned as he looked at the black magic books in front of him. These books were too big and thick, and it was very inconvenient to carry them around.
Just this book, 'Uncovering the Secrets of the Cutting-Edge Black Magic', was already very strenuous to carry. It was impossible for him to take all the books with him. He had to think of another way.
The best way was to use the Traceless Stretch Spell. This spell could enlarge the space and be used on a backpack or handbag. This way, he would be able to put things that he needed to carry around without having to worry about the size and weight.
However, this spell was very complicated and difficult to use. Elwyn had tried it a few times before, but he had not succeeded. It was even more impossible for him to do it in such a short amount of time.
He thought for a while and pulled out his magic wand.
Since the Traceless Stretch Spell did not work, he prepared to use the Shrinking Spell.
When he had met Aragok a few days ago in the Forbidden Forest, Elwyn had wanted to use this spell on him, but he had not succeeded.
After returning to the castle, he had practiced it many times and had completely mastered the Shrinking Spell.
"Shrink quickly!"
As Elwyn spoke, the magic wand emitted a blue glow. The heavy, thick spellbook on his lap quickly shrank until it was only half the size of his palm.
Elwyn nodded in satisfaction. He picked it up and looked at it. The current size of the book was very small, but the weight didn't change. If it wasn't for the shrinking curse, it would be hard to believe that this pocket-sized magic book could be so heavy.
Fang Xingjian placed the shrunken 'Unveiling of Top-Notch Black Magic' into his clothes. Then he chose a few other spellbooks and shrunk them until he could no longer carry them.
Not long after Elwyn finished, Sirius returned with Dumbledore.
Dumbledore was wearing a long black traveling cloak and holding Slytherin's locket in his hand. His expression was unprecedentedly serious.
"Professor, we just heard from Kreacher …"
"Regulus is in that cave. We must …"
Seeing Dumbledore, Harry and Hermione ran over hurriedly and spoke at once.
Elwyn also walked over slowly and stood beside Sirius. He was afraid that if he walked too fast, the spellbook hidden in his clothes would fall out.
"Harry, Hermione, I know everything. Sirius told me everything on the way here." Although he was talking to Harry and Hermione, Dumbledore was staring at Elwyn. His light blue eyes were full of scrutiny. He said slowly, "To be honest, I really didn't expect you to discover and destroy this thing!"
"It was just a coincidence. The Slytherin's insignia on the locket was too eye-catching. I picked it up out of curiosity and looked at it. I didn't expect …"
"And then, you coincidentally wore the snake monster's fangs on you. What a surprising coincidence, Elwyn." Dumbledore returned the locket to Elwyn. "But I have to thank you. With all your coincidences and hard work, this locket was completely destroyed. The things inside have completely disappeared."
Elwyn took half a step back and hung the locket around his neck.
Looking at Dumbledore's wrinkled face, he wasn't sure if Dumbledore had noticed anything. Under Dumbledore's gaze, Elwyn felt as if he had nowhere to hide, as if all his secrets had been exposed.
Disregarding everything else, he seemed to have noticed the black spellbook hidden in his clothes.
"I don't understand, Professor!" Harry was confused. Neither he nor Hermione could understand what Dumbledore was saying to Elwyn. "What is this locket? Why did the Lord Voldemort hide it, and why did Regulus secretly replace him?"
"Just like the diary from last year, this is a black magic item personally made by Tom Liddell. It's very evil, but also very crucial. Tom Liddell probably never thought that Regulus would take it away from the cave under his nose. " There was a hint of disappointment in Dumbledore's tone. "From what I can see, he must have been blindly confident in the defensive spell he set up, and never thought that Kreacher would leave the cave. But that's how he was in the past, never willing to understand these things. "
"Professor, what is this locket?"
"If I'm not wrong, this should be a soul tool."
"Soul tool?!"
Harry's expression became even more confused. He turned to look at Hermione, who was beside him.
Hermione shook her head. She did not know what a soul tool was, and had never even heard of it before.
Unlike the two of them, Elwyn's face was full of surprise. He did not expect Dumbledore to say it directly. He had thought that Dumbledore would keep it a secret.
It seemed that after seeing Tom Liddell's diary and Slytherin's locket, Dumbledore had confirmed that the Lord Voldemort was making a soul tool. Or rather, he had a new plan, which was why he told them about it.
As for Sirius, after hearing Dumbledore's words, his face turned pale. Although he had some guesses about this locket before, he had never imagined that it would be a soul tool.
Sirius had heard of this ancient, evil magic before.
Although he did not know the specific use of a soul tool, there was no doubt that it was very important.
It was no wonder that Regulus would rather lose his life than steal it from the Lord Voldemort.
Thinking of his brother's actions, Sirius, who had sunk into sorrow, suddenly felt an infinite sense of pride. He was proud of Regulus.
"Professor," Harry continued to ask. He wanted to know what a soul tool was.
However, Dumbledore did not seem to want to answer this question. He lowered his head to look at Kreacher and continued, "I just heard from Sirius that this locket was originally hidden in a cave by Tom Liddell. I want to go to that cave and take a look. Maybe there will be some clues left there. Are you willing to help us, Kreacher? "
"Yes, sir!" Kreacher replied hoarsely with a bullfrog's voice. "Kreacher is willing to lead the way to that cave, but Master Regulus …"
"We'll bring Regulus back," Leylin said. Dumbledore stared at Kreacher. "Without a doubt, he is a hero. He deserves the honor that a hero deserves."
"Wait a minute, Professor, we want to go too!" Harry said hurriedly. He did not continue to ask what a soul tool was.
He was afraid that if he said too much, he would lose the opportunity to accompany Dumbledore.
"I can bring the three of you with me." Dumbledore's eyes looked around and stopped on Elwyn again. "But you must promise me that you will keep this a secret. Before I agree, you must not tell anyone else, including Mr. Weasley. Is that okay?"
Elwyn nodded. Hermione hesitated for a moment, then nodded as well.
"Not even Ron?" Harry looked a little hesitant.
"Of course!"
They looked at each other for a while. Harry nodded. "Alright, Professor!"
