While Sirius was holding his brother's body and crying bitterly, these ship girls continued their work. In their view, it is their duty to let these poor people rest in peace.

This kind of transcendence work lasted for a full hour. After the ship girls ran back and forth on the water several times to make sure that all the Inferi had been transcended, several people immediately sat down and rested.

In any case, the previous high-intensity battle is definitely a test for people, so even if the ship girls are not tired, they still need to disguise themselves a little to avoid being spotted by Sirius.

After resting for a few minutes, several people packed up their things and walked out. Sirius refused help from others and carried his brother's body behind his back alone. Everyone was quiet along the way, except for Kreacher's low sobs.

Using another bottle of blood, he opened the stone arch and walked into the cave. The four people were led back to No. 12 Grimmauld Place by Kreacher. When the door of the house was opened, all the gas lights in the dark corridor lit up in an instant.

The curtain covering the portrait of Sirius' mother was lifted. But this time the portrait did not scream or curse, it just looked at the body behind Sirius and covered its mouth and cried bitterly.

Immediately, all the portraits in the corridor started crying. After a long time away from home, Regulus finally returned to his home again, and there was hope for salvation of his soul.

Soon, Hugo used alchemy to refining some furniture and silverware in the room of the Black family's old house into a coffin, and placed Regulus's body in it.

Then, Guanghui walked to the coffin and raised the cane in his hand high above his head. As milky white light gradually emerged from the cane and spilled into the coffin.

A trace of black energy emerged from Regulus' body and then disappeared. The expression on the corpse's face also softened, and finally, the soul that had been trapped in the body by black magic was freed.

Regulus' milky white soul slowly floated from the corpse into the air and looked at the people below when he saw this scene. Kreacher suddenly burst into tears, and Sirius' tears couldn't stop streaming down his face.

"We succeeded, Master!" Regulus raised the pendant that was hanging around his neck and said to Regulus' soul, "I did it according to your order."

After seeing the opened locket, Regulus' soul finally showed a smile, and then disappeared in a ray of golden light. At the same time, the frown on the corpse's face also relaxed, as if it was asleep.

Seeing this scene, Sirius and Kreacher burst into tears holding the coffin. Everyone else present stood silently to express their condolences. Even an emotional person like Mrs. Weasley had red eyes.

That afternoon, several of them went to the Black family cemetery, which had become completely deserted, to bury Regulus. This cemetery is located near Grimmauld Place and is hidden by some magic.

In the center of the entire cemetery is a black marble monument with the coat of arms of the Black family inlaid in gold and the family's slogan: The noble and oldest Black family is forever pure.

And around this monument, there are rows and rows of black tombstones neatly arranged. They are of different shapes and sizes, but each one is exquisitely carved. At the same time, the surname of the owner of these tombs is Blake.

However, because no one has taken care of it for a long time, the cemetery looks a bit depressed: the ground is covered with weeds, the trees have become twisted and ugly, and the words on most of the tombstones also look mottled and dim, and the tombstones themselves are also a bit dull. Tattered.

After a simple observation, Hugo found that these tombstones were getting fewer and fewer as time went by, and at the same time, the quality of the tombstones and the level of magic applied on them were getting worse and worse, reflecting the decline of the family.

In a corner of the cemetery, Dumbledore, the Weasley family, the Granger siblings, and the ship girls were all solemnly surrounding an ordinary tomb that was incompatible with the surrounding style. With the last words of the hero Regulus, Procedure.

At first, Sirius planned to invite some people to Regulus's funeral. But after careful recollection, he discovered that Regulus's friends were now either licking Voldemort's robes or being imprisoned in Azkaban. There was no normal person still active outside.

In addition, what Regulus had done before was indeed not suitable for public disclosure. As a result, the combination of these two reasons resulted in only a few of their acquaintances attending the entire funeral.

Throughout the funeral process, Kreacher's crying continued intermittently. It's like someone scratching a blackboard with their fingernails and it makes everyone feel uncomfortable.

Although Hugo had never attended the funeral of a pure-blood wizard before, and did not know how the funerals of these pure-blood wizards were different from the funerals of ordinary people, Regulus's funeral was obviously a very simple one, even Some simple funeral.

On Regulus's tombstone, it is briefly written: Regulus Arcturus Black will rest here forever. He once went astray, but he also found his way back.

He used his life to defend justice and the dignity of the Black family. He is a true hero and the pride of the Black family.

Perhaps to many pure-blood wizards, this comment would be seen as an insult. But for Sirius and everyone present now, this should be the best evaluation of the hero Regulus.

Compared to Kreacher, who was crying and howling at the side, Sirius seemed very quiet. He just sat quietly on the edge of the graveyard that had just been sealed with soil, and gently stroked the tombstone with a haggard look on his face.

The brief funeral ended solemnly. In the end, only the house elf Kreacher was still sobbing loudly, while Sirius slowly recovered.

In fact, Sirius had a bad premonition after Regulus disappeared, and the fact that Regulus, the most family-oriented person, has not returned home after so many years only further proves this premonition.

So the most important thing about this funeral now is to provide comfort to the living, and to change the image of the younger brother in Sirius' heart from a cowardly fool who was killed by the pure-blood theory to a real hero.

From that point of view, the funeral was perfect. As for material poverty, Regulus probably wouldn't care about it given his character.

After the funeral, great changes took place in the mansion. The portrait of Sirius' mother no longer yelled, but at most rolled its eyes at those who looked down upon it.

Kreacher also seemed to be much more energetic all of a sudden. With his help, the progress of cleaning the room was greatly accelerated. In just one day, they cleaned 1/3 of the room.

The one who has changed the most is Sirius. After he came back from the cemetery, he was much more positive than before. According to him, he is not living alone now. In his future, he not only has to live out his own life, but also fulfill his brother's wish. Therefore, we must face each day positively in the following days.

He even felt that he had an obligation to make the Black family great again. Of course, unlike the previous family that was famous for its pure-blood theory and black magic, the great Black family in Sirius' mind should be a sunny and harmonious family like the Weasley family. .
