Slytherin's salvation is nothingness

In the auditorium on Monday, Dumbledore introduced Sirius, who had come to teach in Lupin's place. He's something of a celebrity now, with news of his exoneration sweeping the world, a fearsome Azkaban escapee transformed into a hero against the darkness.

Coupled with his outstanding appearance, the last heir of the Black family can be said to be handsome and rich... When he appeared, he attracted the burning eyes of many female students.

Seeing Sirius wave to him carelessly, Cyrus felt the eyes of the female students shift to him. It would be better not to get close to him recently. Unexpectedly, this stupid dog walked directly off the stage and sat at the Slytherin table to greet Cyrus, "Cyrus, I am your professor now. Ignore me, or I will deduct points for Slytherin."

Cyrus rubbed his eyebrows and said, "Then please ask Professor Black to be calm as a professor. Do you know how many eyes are looking at this place now because of your actions?"

Sirius didn't care at all, but laughed loudly, "What's the matter? Don't call me by my last name. But the title professor sounds so comfortable." Harry and others also sat over, and Hermione opened her mouth to save the situation, "Sir Reese, it’s inappropriate for you to do this, Cyrus will bother her.”

It was a bit irritating to see several Gryffindors sitting at the long Slytherin table, but seeing that Cyrus was there, the Slytherin students didn't say anything.

"Class is about to start. You should go back quickly. As the new professor, you should also go back to the office to prepare for the class." Cyrus stood up and left.

"I know that there is a fifth grade Defense Against the Dark Arts class this afternoon. Let's talk about it, Cyrus." Sirius's voice came from behind, and Cyrus said with a look of disgust: "If the professor doesn't know how to If you fall on the floor and pretend to be dead."

In the fifth grade Defense Against the Dark Arts class, Sirius asked everyone to do practical exercises. Cyrus leaned aside and sighed as she stared boredly at her classmates' lame combat exercises. Sirius also stood beside her: "Who told us, Miss Cyrus, that no one dares to practice with you because we are too strong?"

Seeing that Cyrus ignored him, he added, "Where did you go after drinking that day? Did that guy Snape do anything to you?" Cyrus changed the subject, "I should win the bet, I hope Accept defeat, Mr. Big Black Dog.”

The man on the side said angrily: "Who said that? There were a lot of people accosting me afterwards, but you didn't see it. But... I will satisfy Cyrus's request." Sirius approached Cyrus and showed a wicked smile. : "What do you want from me?"

Cyrus pushed the big dog's face away and said calmly: "Take me to the Black Mansion on the weekend." Sirius was obviously surprised and smiled playfully, "It turns out that Miss Cyrus has evil intentions towards me. She has long wanted to want……"

Cyrus smiled mockingly, "Mr. Big Black Dog is a little too confident. I need a pendant to be placed in Black's old house. I will call Remus together when the time comes. I need your help."

Sirius' eyes flashed with loneliness and then quickly recovered, "Pendant? How did you know that you were in the Black Mansion? I don't even know. Does it have any special function?" Cyrus nodded, "I will explain it to you when the time comes. Don't Tell anyone."

Seeing how serious Cyrus was, Sirius no longer had an indifferent attitude and agreed to Cyrus.

In the past few days, Sirius went to chat with Cyrus whenever he had nothing to do. He couldn't find Cyrus at first, so he went to wait at the door of the classroom knowing that she would be teaching potions and alchemy classes to lower grade students. Because Salazar was present in the Alchemy class, Sirius was almost killed by the old monster, and in the end he could only guard outside the Potions class.

The bell rang for the end of get out of class, and several students walked out of the classroom. They were a little surprised and confused when they saw Sirius. They watched the handsome new professor walk into the classroom and greet Cyrus warmly. Unexpectedly, they saw Snape beside him.

The smile disappeared immediately, "Snape?! Why are you here?" Snape snorted, "Isn't it normal for me to have classes with my own teaching assistant?" Originally, Snape didn't need to attend classes with Cyrus. , but since Sirius came to Hogwarts, Snape has been with her on the pretext of checking Cyrus's level of class.

Not to be outdone, Sirius would wait outside the door whenever Cyrus and Snape arrived for class. In the past few days, it was inevitable that the Defense Against the Dark Arts professor was pursuing the Potions professor. When Cyrus heard the news, he spat out, "Sirius, he is pursuing Mr.?!

Cyrus, who came to Snape's office, saw him sitting in a chair correcting papers with a gloomy look on his face. The strength in his hands increased from time to time, and he wrote a "T" fiercely.

Seeing Cyrus trying to suppress his laughter, he said viciously: "What makes Miss Cyrus so happy?" Cyrus covered his mouth and thought about the sad things, and finally suppressed his laughter. .

"It's nothing, sir. Just recently, some students said that Sirius...ha...is...hahahaha...pursuing you, sir." Cyrus couldn't bear it any longer, covering his mouth and shaking all over, and beating his head from time to time. wall.

"It seems that Miss Cyrus likes to see her professor embarrassed?" A man's deep voice came from behind. An ominous premonition arose in her heart, and she turned back to meet the man's eyes. "How could it be possible? Sir, it's just that their joke was too outrageous." The man put one hand on Cyrus's ear, and his tall figure held her in front of him. "I'm very curious. Miss Cyrus has feelings for that idiot." What do you think?"

"He acts impulsively and without regard for the consequences. He is someone who is easily manipulated... Sir, I have no right to participate in your previous matters, nor can I make any comments."

Snape's frown eased a little, "But I think Miss Cyrus is very close to them." Cyrus frowned and said slowly: "Originally, they were only needed for the plan, and getting close to them was also for profit. But it may be different now, they are more like...my friends."

The man in front of him left, "Miss Cyrus, if you have nothing to do, please go out." The black robe was pulled from behind, "Sir, what's wrong with you?" Snape pulled the black robe, but the girl held on tightly. A hoarse voice came: "Do you like him?" Cyrus blinked. She did not expect that her husband would take the initiative to bring up such a topic.

The girl raised her head, her nose close to his neck, and stroked a strand of Snape's long hair, "Why don't you understand, sir, what exactly do you want me to do to satisfy you?" Snape felt the tip of the girl's nose brush against him. The neck feels as if it has been gently swept by soft feathers, and a tingling sensation spreads throughout the limbs.

Looking into Cyrus's eyes, it was as if the whole person fell into a gentle and warm sea, "Since you mentioned it first, do you like me? You have clearly rejected me before, but you will show gentleness and care to me."

Snape's chest was heaving violently, and Cyrus could feel his accelerating heartbeat with his hands against his chest. He put his hands around Snape's neck, and their bodies were close to each other. Cyrus was gradually no longer satisfied with this. He tiptoed close to Snape's thin lips and whispered softly: "I like you, Severus. I want everything about you, and I want you to become mine."

Snape's face felt hot, his ears were red, and his breathing was a little heavy. Looking at the soft lips close at hand, the fragrance of the girl lingering, strong emotions flashed in the eyes that were always cold and plain, and the lower jaw was tensed, as if suppressing something. The Adam's apple rolled up and down, and he lowered his eyes to cover the turbulent emotions in his eyes. He covered the girl's lips and pushed away, with a cold and indifferent tone, "Miss Slytherin is overthinking, don't fool your professor like this again."

Cyrus' eyes were lonely and sad, and he gently took away the man's hand. Why is Mr. still evading? Is his reaction just now fake, or is it... "Is it because of Lily Evans?"

Feeling the trembling of the man's body, she withdrew the hug, took his hand and held it tightly. "Turning around in the air three times, you can see her. Although she can't be resurrected... at least she will comfort you." He put the ring into the man's palm, quickly removed his hands, and left the office.

In Grimmauld Place, Sirius stood in the middle with Cyrus and Lupin. The house in front of him was divided into two sides with a wave of his wand. The Old Black House appeared from the center. Sirius pointed at the old house with a look of disgust: "This place is full of disgusting curses. Be careful."

The three of them walked into the house. It was dark and gloomy, the walls were covered with dark green wallpaper, and there was a musty smell in the air. "Kreacher! Come out!" As Sirius yelled, a house elf appeared. Except for a dirty rag around his waist, he was almost naked. He has several times more skin than his body actually needs, his head is bald, and a lot of white hair grows out of his two big bat-like ears.

He had a very bad attitude towards Sirius but could not disobey the orders of the master of the Black family. His voice was as hoarse as a bullfrog and he complained in a low voice.

Sirius cursed harshly at Kreacher, and Cyrus patted Sirius to signal him to stop. Several people walked into the living room and cleaned it a little with a fresh cloth. Cyrus sat on the sofa and looked at Kreacher, who was still murmuring and complaining, "Hello, Kreacher. My name is Cyrus Slytherin."

Kreacher knew that his master, Sirius's parents, supported pure blood, and his attitude became better after hearing Cyrus's name, but it was just a show-off. "Miss Slytherin, what are your orders?"

Cyrus showed a gentle smile, "Kreacher, thank you for guarding the Black Mansion for so many years. Your most beloved master, Mr. Regulus Black, will definitely be proud of your efforts."

"That Death Eater?! Are you kidding me!" Sirius started barking again, and suddenly met Cyrus's scarlet eyes. Cyrus put his index finger lightly on his lips, "Quiet, listen to what I have to say."

Lupine also held Sirius' shoulders, and he curled his lips and became quiet. Kreacher had a clear reaction when he heard his master's name, "Miss Slytherin...know my master?"

Cyrus nodded, knelt down and looked at Kreacher, "He is a hero, and everything he has done should be known to the world, right?" Kreacher's eyes turned red, "You... know! But Kreacher is useless... ...Failed to complete the master's task." Then he started hitting his head with a nearby lamp, Cyrus patted him on the shoulder,

"Calm down, Kreacher. I hope you can tell the truth, okay? We are here this time, including your current master, to help Regulus." Kreacher trembled and shook his head crazily, "Master's I can’t disobey the order!”

"Then I say, you listen nearby. If everything goes as I said, you can just nod. This does not count as disobeying orders." Kreacher wiped his tears and nodded.

Cyrus stood up and faced Sirius and Lupin, "Sirius, your brother, Regulus Arcturus Black, initially followed Voldemort to advocate blood and strength, but he never tortured Muggles and A half-blood wizard. He has been fighting secretly after discovering that the ideas he pursues are completely wrong. He discovered that Voldemort was secretly making Horcruxes, so he exchanged his life for the Horcruxes.

He asked Kreacher to take him to the cave where the Horcrux was, drank the poison, took the Horcrux and put down the fake one. He could have escaped, but he let Kreacher leave with the Horcrux, and he was dragged into the lake by the Inferi... He asked Kreacher to destroy the Horcrux and not reveal it to anyone, but the Horcrux was not so easily destroyed. "

Cyrus looked at Kreacher, whose face was full of tears, and almost dropped his head to the ground when he nodded. Sirius and Lupine looked at her in disbelief.

Cyrus paused and spoke again: "The Horcrux is Slytherin's locket. It was kept in the Black Mansion after being taken back by Kreacher. This is what I need."

Then she knelt down to face Kreacher again, "I can help you Kreacher, and I can help you complete your master's mission. Now, can you take out the pendant?"

Kreacher hesitated for a moment, "Can it really be destroyed...Kreacher has tried every means." Cyrus nodded, "I guarantee you in the name of Slytherin, it can definitely be done."

Kreacher disappeared for a moment and reappeared. A pendant appeared in his hand and was placed on the table. Cyrus stopped everyone from coming forward. "There is a dark magic curse inside, please stay away."

"I'm here to help you!" Sirius and Lupine stood in front of Cyrus without giving in. Cyrus was silent for a moment and smiled: "When you see black mist overflowing near the pendant, don't hesitate to stab it with the dagger. What? Don’t worry about it, just stick it in, got it?”

Cyrus threw a dagger to Sirius, and then added: "Don't touch the blade, it has the venom of the basilisk." Sirius' hand holding the dagger was farther away from the blade, and Lupine remained beside Cyrus. Be cautious.

Cyrus exchanged glances with the two of them, then stared at the locket and spoke in a hoarse, low voice. The pendant opened immediately, and black mist spread everywhere. Sirius grabbed the dagger and rushed forward and immediately thrust the dagger into it. A shrill scream resounded, and the black mist gradually disappeared.

After observing for a while, Cyrus relaxed and looked at everyone: "It's solved." Then he picked up the pendant. Salazar said that the pendant was just a useless decoration and might have been left by his heir at the time... She took out the potion and poured it on the pendant. The potion mixed with Fox's tears washed away the basilisk venom on it.

Then he placed the pendant in front of Kreacher, "Your mission is completed, Kreacher." Kreacher looked around with the pendant, and then the gloomy house elf laughed and said: "Master! Success! You leave it to Kreacher. The thing was successfully destroyed!"

Sirius, who was sitting aside, had a deep expression on his face. He looked at Cyrus: "Is everything you just said true? Regulus died in the cave because of his resistance. What happened to the Horcrux?"

Cyrus also sat down and explained to Lupine and Sirius. She didn't explain why she knew these things, and Sirius and others didn't ask too much. The three of them were silent for a long time. Sirius sat on the sofa with his fists clenched. Cyrus stood up and stretched out his hand: "Let's go and bring your brother back!"

Xi Lili held Cyrus's hand tightly and nodded firmly, "Bring him back!" Lupine also came over and put his hand on it. Cyrus looked at Kreacher, "Can you take us to that cave? Is it? It’s time for your master to come back."

Several people apparated outside a huge cave. Kreacher's trembling voice came, and he was filled with shadows about this place. "This place is sealed. Kreacher tried before but couldn't get in."

Snapping his fingers, he said, "Kool, Dobby, go get the box I put in the weapons room." Soon, the two of them used the levitating spell to lift a brown wooden box. Kreacher had never seen a house elf wearing a fine suit before. He looked at the two of them with doubts in his eyes, and he also disliked such nondescript attire.

"What is this, Cyrus?" Lupine looked at the heavy wooden box, Cyrus smiled wickedly,

"TNT."

Then he led a few people to stop ten meters away from the cave, cast four or five advanced protection spells, and cleared his throat: "Then, this blasting drill officially begins. Countdown, three, two, one!"

In the surprised eyes of several people, a violent explosion came from the direction of the cave, and a wave of heat hit everyone's faces. Cyrus looked at the blasted cave and couldn't help but chuckle, "Voldemort, times have changed."

Then Lupine's anxious voice came, "Cyrus, the top of the cave may collapse!"

Cyrus' originally proud face suddenly froze, and he used a large amount of magic power to control the collapse. He wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and said, "Well, I'm still not very proficient in using things from the Muggle world."
