Although Aiwen himself does not know how to use these black magics, this book is indeed of great reference value, and the black magic recorded in it has given him a lot of inspiration.
Except for Horcruxes and the Three Unforgivable Curses, Ivan had never even heard of the other black magic recorded in the book. Now through this book, if Voldemort or the Death Eaters used those magics, he knew how to break them too.
He flipped through it for a while, then raised his head abruptly.
Aiwen suddenly remembered that now is not the time to read books leisurely, Dumbledore and Sirius will be back soon, and there is not much time left for him.
They would not allow themselves to be exposed to this kind of black magic book, especially the "Secrets of Cutting-Edge Black Magic" in hand contains the method of making Horcruxes.
He couldn't read it here, he had to take away the black magic books in front of him, and study them slowly when no one was around.
Ai Wen frowned and looked at the black magic books in front of him. These books were too big and thick, and they were inconvenient to carry.
It was very difficult to pick up the "Secrets of Cutting-Edge Black Magic" alone, and it was impossible to take all the books away. He had to think of a way.
The best practice is no different from the traceless stretching spell. This spell can enlarge the space and use it on a carry-on backpack or handbag to put things that need to be carried with you without considering the size and weight.
But this spell is very complicated and extremely difficult to use. Ivan has tried it several times before but failed, and it is even more impossible to do it in a hurry now.
He thought for a while, then pulled out his wand.
Since the Untraceable Stretching Curse didn't work, he was going to use the Shrinking Curse.
When I met Aragog in the Forbidden Forest a few days ago, Ivan originally planned to use this spell on it, but it was unsuccessful.
After returning to the castle, he deliberately practiced many times, and he has fully mastered the shrinking spell.
"Shrink quickly!"
Following Ivan's words, the wand emitted a blue light. The heavy and thick magic book on his lap shrank rapidly, until it was only half the size of a palm.
Aiwen nodded in satisfaction, picked it up and looked at it. The current size of this book is very small, but the weight has not changed at all. If it is not because of the shrinking spell, it is hard to believe that this kind of pocket magic book will have such a small size. weight.
He put the shrunken "Secrets of the Cutting-Edge Dark Arts" into his arms, and then selected a few more magic books to shrink until he could no longer carry them.
Shortly after Ivan had just finished, Sirius returned with Dumbledore.
Dumbledore was wearing a long black traveling cloak, holding Slytherin's locket in his hand, and his face was more serious than ever.
"Professor, we just heard from Kreacher"
"Reculus is in that cave, we must"
Seeing Dumbledore, Harry and Hermione hurried over, chattering.
Ai Wen also walked over slowly, standing beside Sirius, he was afraid that if he walked too fast, all the magic books hidden in his arms would fall out.
"Harry, Hermione, I know. Sirius told me everything on the way." Although he was talking to Harry and Hermione, Dumbledore was watching Ivan, the light blue His eyes were full of scrutiny, and he said slowly, "To be honest, I really didn't expect that you guys discovered and destroyed this thing!"
"It's just a coincidence. The Slytherin emblem on this locket is so eye-catching. I was curious to pick it up and take a look at it. I didn't expect it."
"Then, you happened to wear the basilisk's fangs on your body. What an amazing coincidence, Ivan." Dumbledore returned the locket to Ivan, "But I must thank you. With hard work and hard work, this locket was completely destroyed, and the contents inside have completely disappeared."
Ivan took half a step back and hung the locket around his neck.
Looking at Dumbledore's wrinkled face, he wasn't sure if the other party had noticed something. Under Dumbledore's gaze, Ivan had a feeling that there was nowhere to hide and all the secrets were known.
Apart from other aspects, he seems to have seen the black magic book hidden in his arms.
"I don't understand, Professor!" Harry looked confused, neither he nor Hermione could understand what Dumbledore was saying to Ivan, "What is this locket, why did Voldemort hide it, and Ray Gules secretly replaced him again?"
"Like last year's diary, this is a black magic item made by Tom Riddle himself. It is very evil and very critical. Tom Riddle probably never thought that Regulus would be in front of his eyes." Now, take this thing out of the cave." Dumbledore seemed to have a hint of disappointment in his tone, "In my opinion, he must have blind confidence in the defensive magic he deployed, and he never thought that Kreacher would or would leave The cave. But that's how he used to be, and he never wanted to know about these things."
"Professor, what the hell is this locket?"
"If I'm not mistaken, this should be a Horcrux."
"Horcrux?!"
The expression on Harry's face was even more confused, and he turned to look at Hermione beside him.
Hermione shook her head, she didn't know what a Horcrux was, she hadn't even heard of it before.
Unlike the two of them, Ivan was full of surprise. He didn't expect Dumbledore to say it directly. He originally thought that the other party would keep it a secret.
It seems that after seeing Tom Riddle's diary and Slytherin's locket again, Dumbledore has confirmed that Voldemort is making Horcruxes. In other words, he had a new plan before telling them about it.
As for Sirius, after hearing Dumbledore's words, the expression on his face suddenly turned pale. Although he had guessed about this locket before that, he never imagined that this thing would be a horcruxes.
Sirius had heard of this ancient, evil magic.
Even if the specific purpose of the Horcrux is also unclear, there is no doubt that this thing is very important.
No wonder Regulus would rather lose his life than steal it from Voldemort.
Thinking of what his younger brother had done, Sirius, who was already in grief, suddenly felt boundless pride in his heart, he was proud of Regulus.
"Professor" Harry continued to ask, he wanted to know what a Horcrux was.
But Dumbledore didn't seem to want to answer this question. He looked down at Kreacher and continued, "I just heard from Sirius that this locket was originally hidden in a cave by Tom Riddle. I want to go to that cave." Take a look, there may be some clues left there. Will you help us, Kreacher?"
"Yes, sir!" Kreacher replied in a hoarse voice like a bullfrog, "Kreacher is willing to show you the way to that cave, but Master Regulus"
"We will bring Regulus back." Dumbledore stared at Kreacher. "There is no doubt that he is a hero and deserves the honor a hero deserves."
"Wait a minute, professor, we're going too!" Harry said hastily, not wanting to keep pestering what the Horcrux was.
He was afraid that he would talk too much and lose the opportunity to accompany Dumbledore.
"I can take the three of you together." Dumbledore looked around, and then rested on Ivan again, "But you must promise me that you must keep this matter a secret. Before I agree, you must not tell me The others said, including Mr Weasley, is that all right?"
Ivan nodded, and Hermione hesitated for a moment, then nodded.
"Can't even Ron tell?" Harry looked hesitant.
"certainly!"
They looked at each other for a moment, and Harry nodded, "Okay, Professor!"
"Very well, I think we can go now." Dumbledore turned around and pulled out his wand. (.)
