Harry Potter: Who cares about belated motherly love?
Chapter 147 Go to the Tombstone
"That's right. It seems that she doesn't know the formal inheritance method. I guess the formal inheritance procedures may still be kept in the villa where Mr. Orion is recuperating. The ring should be for his wife to temporarily take over the position of head of the family and leave a clue for his son to inherit the position of head of the family.
"However, in the worst case scenario, you might be able to ask the stubborn old man who is under house arrest in another house. However, I think Mr. Orion has already figured out a way to prevent his heir from having any contact with his father."
"But I heard that my father, who was infected with dragon pox, burned the entire villa with demonic fire. I heard that he did this to avoid the Ministry of Magic from getting involved. Afterwards, the Ministry of Magic even checked to see if the villa was really completely burned down."
"Mrs. Walburga also mentioned this. She also said that she went to confirm it herself and erected a tombstone. Have you been there?"
“I haven’t been there…”
"He probably didn't die suddenly. There should have been enough time between his illness and his death to leave clues. I don't think he was the kind of person who didn't consider his son. Although I haven't met him, I think he should be a thoughtful person, right?
"Judging from the fact that he avoided the Ministry's involvement, there must be some secret here.
“For example, when the person wearing the ring goes to the cemetery, there may be a reaction, or he may bury clues in the ground and wait for the temporary owner to solve the mystery.
"You could try to ask Madame Walburga, in a calm way, if she has ever inquired whether Sirius has been to his father's grave."
"I didn't hear her ask me such a thing!"
"That's because you guys always quarrel every time you meet. She doesn't even have a chance to have a normal conversation with you.
"However, Sirius's personality is too similar to that of Madame Walburga. Personalities are too similar, so they either get along well or are in opposition to each other. This time it is clearly a case of opposition.
"Oh, and about Tom, I found out that he may have had his memory tampered with. Although I don't know who tampered with his memory, he completely forgot who Tom Riddle was and regarded Voldemort as the representative of pure blood.
"When I asked him indirectly who he admired and who was the best in school, his answer was visibly shaken.
"Perhaps Mrs. Walburga really liked Tom back then? After all, he is really handsome. His school photo was even published in the newspaper, and he really looked attractive. Not only is he excellent in magic, he is also very hardworking, and he is completely different from those spoiled pure-blood nobles. He grew up in an orphanage and has a mysterious and gloomy temperament. This kind of person should be very popular, right? Women often like this type of man."
But as a member of the Black family, I can't be attracted to a half-blood. What's more, I will be the wife of the main family of the Black family.
It is the highest honor to be the wife of the king of pure-blood nobles.
I have been indoctrinated with this idea since I was a child. That person's pure-blood belief is deeply rooted in his bones, and it is not so easy to overturn. No matter how much I like him, I can't even accept the feeling of "liking" him. Maybe I am too bound by the pure-blood ideology. Falling in love with a half-pure-blood is simply unforgivable. Maybe I myself don't want to admit that I am attracted to someone whose background I don't know.
And Tom Riddle, whom he truly loved, may have also been erased. Even though he was aware of Voldemort's existence, he didn't know who Tom Riddle was. Perhaps his love for Tom Riddle was replaced by his admiration for Voldemort.
If I think about it this way, it's very likely that I was the one who tampered with my memory. Since there was no external interference, it's not a conspiracy.
Lord Orion should have noticed this a long time ago, right? Even I can see it, and maybe Mr. Tom knows it too. Mr. Lucius's father, Lord Abraxas, may also know it.
But the people around me must be worried that pointing out this contradiction might cause her to break down. Maybe they have no choice but to go along with it. Everyone is trying to protect Master Walburga. No one can back down. Ah, in this case, Grandpa Akhtars might not want me to get close to Master Walburga either.
Mr. Tom may have become like that not only because of his upbringing, qualifications, or conflict with Dumbledore, but also because of many complex factors. There may be more than one reason.
"Father rarely spoke about Voldemort. He was supportive but he was not a Death Eater himself.
My mother was the one who got into it the most, and my father just acquiesced and never expressed his opinion.
Eventually, my brother also turned to the opposite side..."
“He may not want to mention Lord Voldemort at all, and does not want to provoke him unnecessarily.
Even though she suppressed her feelings and married as a responsibility of the Black family, she still seemed to love Lord Orion. Because they were relatives, this feeling was more like family affection. Lord Orion might have the same feeling?
If she were to recall this, or realize it, she might really break down.
She chose purism over love, so she may have unconsciously placed restrictions on herself that only allowed purism.
Although she and Sirius have similar temperaments, I think Lord Walburga is much more sensitive than him. Sirius seems to be very nervous. After all, he has been in Azkaban for several years. How can he come back so energetic? He didn't need to be hospitalized. He came back energetic on the same day, right?
People like Percy, who are sensitive, serious, and kind, will collapse in an instant when they encounter a situation they cannot handle. Lady Walburga may also be this type. In this case, people around her cannot easily correct her, so I don't know what to do...
A person with a personality like Lord Walburga would have a headache if he met a son like Sirius. A sensitive mother, but a son with thick nerves who can't understand her sensitivity at all... This type of son thinks that fragile things are better broken directly. And their superficial temperaments are very similar. It is inevitable that they can't get along.
She is such a lady! A real lady. With that kind of upbringing, it is impossible for her to raise a scoundrel son. "
“Who is the hooligan!”
Harry couldn't stop laughing.
“I told her about Harry, too.
Tell her that Harry is an orphan of the Potter family who was abused by his Muggle relatives and was used by Dumbledore as a financial sponsor. It was because of Harry that Dumbledore was successfully brought down, and the Black family should protect him. She felt sympathy for this and was willing to protect Harry.
So, let's go visit tomorrow.
It's a good time to try out the etiquette I learned from Lady Narcissa!"
"Although I still remember how I screamed when I first saw her, I will try my best."
"Sirius, why don't you go and look at the tombstone now?"
"But it's night time now? It's pitch black."
“Well, it’s not clear under what conditions the clues will react, so it would be better to check both at night and during the day, right?
Moreover, judging from the name alone, it is more suitable at night. The Black family seems to be more suitable for the dark attribute. Let’s go.”
"Ron, are you too strict with me?"
“I just don’t like squeamish people.
Like Harry, Mr. Prince, Mr. Lupin, they have all experienced extraordinary hardships, so I am very gentle to them. But Sirius, you are different. "
Ron smiled. He looked exactly like the head of the Weasley family...
"But I was wrongly accused and imprisoned in Azkaban. It's such a terrible place..."
“Even if you act cute, I won’t be soft-hearted.
"In the final analysis, it was your own fault. If you hadn't been so reckless in chasing after the mouse, you wouldn't have ended up like that. It's incredible that you knew the other person would turn into a mouse, but you still rushed out without any preparation."
"That's because Dumbledore said he would entrust Harry to Lily's relatives. I couldn't take care of him, so I chased after him..."
"It's because of your support that things turned out like that. Even if we can't live together, there are many other ways. If you don't think of this, you are incompetent.
How can an ordinary Muggle take care of a child with powerful magic? You know that Harry's magic has awakened, right?
It's just too shallow.
And you know that a large amount of child support is sent every month. You arranged that yourself, didn't you? "
"But Dumbledore said that it would be fine if we just leave it to him."
"But you should know that when a person sees a huge amount of money in front of him, he will involuntarily grab it. Age is not a problem at all. Even if he was a good person in the past, he may become a slave to money at a certain moment. Dumbledore may not be doing it for the money, but he can use the child support more effectively. Therefore, as a guardian, you must manage these things carefully. If you can't take care of him yourself, you should arrange a multi-level inspection mechanism. Even if you are not there, you should find a lawyer, an accountant, or entrust the Ministry of Magic to manage it. There are many ways. Only by doing these can you hand over the responsibility to others.
You have absolutely no idea of the world."
"Sirius may have relied on someone he shouldn't have..."
Harry also joined in hitting me.
"Oh my God! What have I done!
I'm sorry, James! Lily! Oh, James!
Harry, please forgive me!"
I cried and hugged Harry, and he patted my back and comforted me gently. After being stung by Ron's harsh words, Harry's gentleness touched me even more.
"I'm not angry. I'm angry at Tom who killed my parents, and at the bearded man who embezzled the inheritance, but I don't have any hatred towards you, Peter Pettigrew, or even my aunt's family.
So, let’s go check out the tombstone, shall we?
Sirius, I can live in peace after you have fulfilled your duties as Black family. Can you confirm this as soon as possible? "
"I see! I'll go check it out right away!"
"Harry has also mastered the technique of controlling Sirius?"
"After all, he is a spoiled young master, and being too strict will make him retreat.
So he needs to be coaxed moderately.”
"I see. I was indeed strict with him today, and I will improve in the future. Sirius is such an interesting person, I like him more and more! And this family is also very interesting."
The remaining children snickered.
……
To be frank, I thought Ron's speculation was a little unreliable, but I soon discovered that there was indeed something buried under the tombstone erected by the old woman.
When I took it out, I found a tightly sealed box buried inside, with a stone similar to the ring embedded in the box. When I pointed the stone on the ring at the box, it opened easily. After restoring the tombstone to its original state, I immediately returned home.
In my room, I found the last words my father left. Because he didn't want others to see his appearance after being eroded by dragon pox, the last words only contained his voice.
I don't know if it was for me or Regulus, but he obviously thought Regulus might have died, so it was more likely for me. My father's voice sounded a little sad.
His father explained in detail how to enter the room where the items for inheriting the family head were hidden, how to perform the inheritance ceremony, the items that must be injected with magic power immediately after becoming the official family head, how to manage the dark items in the house, and how to supply magic power frequently and with precautions. As Ron said, his mother had only completed the most basic things before.
Finally, the father talked about his opinion of the mother.
"Please forgive Walburga. She is actually a gentler and more fragile person than anyone else. It is precisely because she would collapse if she did not act strong that she became like that.
I couldn't save her. There was nothing I could do. Or was it that what I was afraid of doing would destroy her?
So don't blame her too much. That's all I can say.
Goodbye, then. I wish you happiness. "
I didn't feel sad when I learned the news of my father's death, but it was only at this moment that I truly realized my father's death.
At that moment, tears welled up in my eyes.
The next day, when Auntie Ann came to pick me up with Ron, the twins were also observing the house-elf's head, almost licking it carefully. Indeed, this time it was completely different from what they saw at the last party. Ron really has a unique vision! They exclaimed.
After looking at the box, they were very excited and decided that this thing could definitely be used in black magic.
...I don't need this kind of clapper, okay? Why do the Weasley twins look so happy?
They seemed very interested in house-elfs and asked Kreacher all the questions. It was said that the Weasleys also had a house-elf, but it was extremely shy and never showed up. The twins tried to chase it, but it always tried to avoid them, so they almost never saw it.
It's not shy, but it hates being chased by you, right?
They were amazed at the abilities of the house-elf and treated it with respect, and although Kreacher was a little wary, they gradually became close. After all, the Weasley brothers were pure-bloods, which should be very pleasing to Kreacher.
I told Ron that his theory was correct.
I didn't know how long the Weasley twins would need, so I asked them to continue to look after Harry for a while.
So, I officially became the real head of the Black family.
