"What did poor old Kreacher see? The young prodigal son who has disappeared for more than ten years is back. He brought a dirty little mudblood back to ruin my mistress's house." Kreacher's voice was very slow, and his eyes were filled with tears. Disdainfully, he bowed to Sirius as he spoke, as if instinct demanded it, but at the same time—
"Hmph!" Kreacher snorted at Tiera contemptuously, and then immediately yelled like a heir:
"Oh...my poor mistress, my poor master! The bloodline of the great and noble Black family has been cut off...wuwuwu...look, my mistress, what you were worried about finally happened! Look at your unfilial son, he finally brought a man back from the outside! He is still a dirty, disgusting and despicable mudblood! Even though he was not familiar with the little devil from the Potter family before..."
"Shut up! Kreacher! Shut up!" Sirius shouted with a livid face.
"Yes...yes, Master, Master, tell Kreacher to shut up. Kreacher will obey. Kreacher was born into the noble Black family." Kreacher lowered his head and said.
"Sorry." Sirius said coldly. Although he was ready to get rid of Tiera, being so humiliated by his own house elf in front of Tiera still made Sirius a little embarrassed. "He hasn't interacted with anyone for so long that he's gone a little crazy."
"The young master always likes to make little jokes. Kreacher is not crazy. Kreacher just wanted the young master to find a companion." After saying that, Kreacher bowed to Tiera again, and then used a very gentle A soft but clear voice said:
"Kreacher smells the mudblood. If the poor mistress knew that the master actually married such a scum into the family, what would she say to poor old Kreacher? What a shame! Bah! What a shame! Bah! What a shame! Shameful..."
"Shut up, Kreacher." Sirius shouted angrily. If it wasn't for the fact that Kreacher might be needed later, Sirius would have already kicked him based on his temper.
"Haha..." But Sirius heard Tiera chuckle.
"Why are you laughing?" Sirius asked strangely. A normal wizard would have already started to pull out his wand at this time -
Oh...yeah, I have his wand here.
Sirius stuffed his wand into his sleeve.
"It's nothing, I just find it interesting." Tiera said calmly, and then climbed up the stairs.
"Interesting?" Sirius asked in confusion as he followed Tiera.
"Mr. Black." Tiera stood on the fourth step, stretched out her hand and pulled down a moth-eaten and moldy curtain, revealing what was hidden behind it——
Portrait of a fierce-looking old lady.
The old lady screamed like a ghost, and she waved her claw-like hands as if to scratch Tiera's face.
"Who are you? Who are you? You beast, you bitch! Get out of here quickly. Who allowed you to enter the home of my ancestors? This is the Black family."
The expression on the old lady's face was terrifying and ferocious. Just when she was about to shout something more, Sirius Black rushed over——
"Shut up, you horrible old witch, shut up!" he shouted, trying to close the curtain again.
"You, you!" The old lady's face turned pale, her eyes widened, she looked at Sirius in disbelief, and then she made a sharper voice, "It's you, the prodigal son, the shame of the family, the evil son I gave birth to! You actually Come back with the nerve, you..."
"I told you, shut up!" Sirius roared, covering the curtain back with lightning speed.
The scream died away, followed by an echoing silence.
"Do you know what I saw? Mr. Black." Tiera asked.
"What you are seeing is my mother," Sirius Black said.
"No, Mr. Black, no..." Tiera smiled, and then said compassionately, "What you saw was just a performance, I saw it..."
"I saw a tragic woman."
"Isn't it?" Sirius said sarcastically.
"No, Mr. Black. You have not seen the essence. No one is evil when he is born, and no mother is born to hate her children so much." Tiera said, "Can you talk about her evil nature?" , where does her dislike for her children come from?"
"Pure blood theory." Sirius said without any hesitation.
"So where does the pure blood theory come from?" Tiera asked again.
"Pure blood theory..." Sirius thought for a moment -
"From...it seems to be from Slytherin." Sirius said.
"Don't blame the ancients for your mistakes, Mr. Black." Tiera said while completely letting go of her spiritual dimension, "I don't deny that Salazar Slytherin is a great wizard, but he is just He was just a great wizard more than a thousand years ago. He did not have that kind of foresight. He proposed the pure-blood theory at that time solely to prevent Muggle wizards who were brainwashed by religion from entering schools and betraying the wizarding society, thus causing irreparable consequences. And he is still a wizard who is responsible for the students and has a sense of justice."
"Then Mr. Black, can you tell me that under the circumstances at that time, when the confrontation between Muggles and wizards was at its most intense, if it were you, would you take the risk of recruiting those who are likely to have been brainwashed? A Muggle student full of fanatical religious beliefs?" Tiera asked rhetorically.
"I..." Sirius thought for a while and then replied sadly:
"I won't……"
Sirius' voice was extremely soft, as if he had said something shameful.
"The original purpose of Slytherin was not to discriminate, but to maintain the stability and security of the entire magical world." Tiera said, "Even at that time, Muggle-born wizards were considered to have unparalleled talents, so why? Why is Slytherin's extremely restrictive recruitment strategy at the time being touted by countless so-called pure-blood wizards and developed to this day?"
"Why...why?" Sirius asked.
"You are better at history of magic than me, tell me why." Tiera said.
"I..." Sirius hesitated, unable to explain why.
"The wizarding world's discrimination against us Muggles has always existed and will last forever. As Lily's good friend and as a pioneer in the last wizarding war, Mr. Black, you must have thought about the reasons, right?" Tiera added asked.
"I...I don't know..." Blake said sheepishly.
"We should learn something from our own past and our own experiences, but look at you, Mr. Black." Tiera pretended to be distressed and said, "You have been in Azkaban for twelve years. , you just sat there for twelve years? Thinking about your most painful past again and again? Have you never thought about anything? "
Tiera stood on the stairs, looking down at Sirius——
"So you are still so reckless, stupid and impulsive, right? Twelve years of prison life, twelve years of pain and sinking still haven't made you any growth, right?"
Strong mental power pressed against Sirius Black.
"Twelve years ago, you changed the secret keeper without permission and killed Harry's parents. Twelve years later, are you going to kill Harry's good friends indiscriminately?" Tiera asked with a smile, "You still want to kill Harry's parents?" Do you want to get rid of me?"
Sirius's expression suddenly changed, and he raised his wand hastily——
