At night, Sean stayed overnight at the Order of the Phoenix headquarters.
In the early hours of the morning, Sean opened his eyes, stood up from the bed silently, used Apparition, and appeared behind Kreacher who was slowly wiping some old objects in the house.
Kreacher obviously felt Sean's appearance. He stopped wiping things in his hands, seemed to mutter to himself, and said provocatively: "You little brat from the Order of the Phoenix, old Kreacher ignores him. Kreacher knew that the mistress would not like to see these little cubs, and old Kreacher couldn't see him..."
Looking at Kreacher muttering, Sean felt a little fond of this house elf.
To a certain extent, Kreacher can be considered a very loyal house elf.
Sean looked at Kreacher who was about to leave, and without any delay, he spoke directly to him: "Kreacher, do you want to retrieve Regulus's body?"
Kreacher's muttering stopped abruptly. He turned around, stared at Sean, and said: "What does the young... young master of the Order of the Phoenix want? The young master of the Order of the Phoenix is willing to help Kreacher? The young master of the Order of the Phoenix wants to help Kreacher?" Young Master, do you know where Master Regulus’ body is?”
"Regulus was dragged into the water by the Inferi and drowned in order to save you. Kreacher, have you just left Regulus alone in that cave after all these years?"
As soon as he said this, Kreacher let out a piercing cry and started banging his head against the wall as if he was desperate.
Fortunately, Sean was prepared.
The moment Kreacher let out a piercing cry, he directly cut off the sound transmission between the room and the outside world, and then waved his wand again to restrain Kreacher.
"Kreacher, it's not too late to make amends. Are you planning to kill yourself before Regulus' body comes home?"
"Yes, yes, the young master of the Order of the Phoenix is right. Kreacher wants to bring Master Regulus's body back, and he wants to bring Master Regulus back."
Soon, Kreacher regained his composure, but after regaining his composure, Kreacher was no longer as impulsive and emotional as before. He looked at Sean and asked again: "Master of the Order of the Phoenix, please help Kreacher." ,what do you want?"
"I want that locket, the one Regulus gave you."
"No, this is not possible. Master Regulus gave this to me. I don't..."
"But you can't destroy it, can you? The order Regulus gave you should be to destroy the locket. But you have never destroyed it. Could it be that by keeping it like this, you have completed Regulus's mission?" Did you get Les’s order?”
"Kreacher has tried all methods. Kreacher used knives, hammers, and fire, but nothing worked. Master of the Order of the Phoenix, do you have any idea?"
Sean nodded and said to Kreacher: "Of course I have a way. In fact, I have already destroyed two of the same things as the lockets."
Looking at Kreacher who was already hesitating, Sean took a step forward, squatted down, and continued to say to Kreacher: "Kreacher, I have some use for that locket. When I use it up and destroy it, I will Give it back to you, and if you feel you need some protection, I can sign a contract with you, how about it?"
Kreacher's hands were shaking a little, and he looked at Sean.
Regulus was like this back then. He did not treat Kreacher as a slave, but as an equal. This is why Kreacher was so loyal to Regulus.
Now Sean is willing to sign a contract with Kreacher, and a contract can only be concluded between equal parties. Other wizards have never bothered to sign a contract with house elves, even members of the Black family except Regulus.
"Kreacher, I am willing to sign a contract with the young master of the Order of the Phoenix."
Looking at Kreacher who was shaking all over, Sean took out the contract he had prepared and placed it in front of Kreacher. After Kreacher read the terms of the contract and signed his name, Sean stretched out his hand and put it in front of Kreacher. His name was also signed on the contract.
"Okay, Kreacher, you should be able to give me the locket now."
"Kreacher will give you the locket immediately, Master of the Order of the Phoenix."
"My name is Sean, Sean Bursted. You don't need to call me the young master of the Order of the Phoenix from now on."
"Okay, Master Sean."
After saying that, Kreacher disappeared in place with a snap. Not long after, Kreacher appeared in front of Sean again, and the Slytherin locket was also lifted up by Kreacher and sent to Sean. In front of grace.
"Master Sean, this is the locket that Master Regulus asked me to destroy."
Sean reached out and took the Slytherin locket. It is an octagonal box. The box is entirely golden and has an S-shaped snake pattern inlaid with green gems. There are a large number of runes carved on the edge of the locket. .
Looking at the prompt that popped up on the panel, Sean knew that the locket was real, so he put the locket into another dragon skin box, and then put it into the traceless stretch bag.
"Kreacher, when do you want to retrieve Regulus' body?"
"Master Sean, can you do it now?"
Sean looked at Kreacher, nodded, and said, "You know where the cave is, right?"
"Kreacher knows, Master Sean, Kreacher can rush over immediately with Master Sean."
"Okay, let's go straight there."
"Okay, Master Sean, please hold my hand."
Sean reached out and grabbed Kreacher's hand. The next second, with a snap, Kreacher and Sean disappeared together, and appeared in a cold, damp cave full of salty smell. Inside.
"Master Sean, this is it."
He pulled out the wand and waved it gently, and a white light source appeared next to Sean, moving forward slowly, while Sean and Kreacher walked towards the inside of the cave.
Walking to a rock gate, Kreacher was looking around and found a sharp rock, and was about to scratch his arm, but before Kreacher could scratch his arm, Sean waved his wand gently and cut it. The rock in Kreacher's hand flew away.
"Master Sean, this door needs to be opened with the blood of the entrant, so..."
"If it's blood, I have it here."
Sean took out a bottle from the traceless stretch bag, which contained bright red blood. Since he was preparing to come here, Sean had prepared some blood in advance. Without any hesitation, Sean opened the bottle and spilled the blood inside. The rock gate in front of him opened in the next second, and a cold and eerie breeze blew out from inside. Sean took Kreacher and walked in, looking at the pool in front of him, where Regulus' body was.
