HP: White Lord of Slytherin

Chapter 383 The Mysterious Gloria (11)

Gloria couldn't go out for a long time. She was glad that she gave Dumbledore the bead that protected her from the killing curse. She sincerely hoped that it could save Sirius' life. What happened in the other world was really worrying.

As for Draco and the others, I don’t know what’s happening now.

With a strong desire, she finally left the manor once, but she did not see Draco or Sirius, but met Headmaster Dumbledore instead.

The old man stood in front of the Pensieve, seemingly in a daze.

"Headmaster Dumbledore," she called.

He turned around and said, "You are here, sit down."

Gloria sat down slowly, "Sirius...is he okay?"

"He's still alive. He listened to us and was hiding, but Tom deceived Harry's brain and made him think Sirius was caught, and several children ran to the Department of Mysteries." Dumbledore recounted the events that had happened.

"We got there in time because of Severus's notification. Sirius listened to Regulus and stayed away from the veil, but was still hit by Bellatrix's killing curse. Fortunately, what you gave worked."

"Regulus...Regulus III?" Gloria immediately thought of the youngest child in another world.

"Yes." Dumbledore nodded. "He showed up at the Black mansion, where Sirius was hiding. He reminded Sirius to be careful of Bellatrix and to stay away from the veil."

Gloria sighed, "I didn't expect Riddle to be able to do this."

Then he noticed that the principal's right hand was still cursed.

She asked: "I remember reminding you, why?"

Dumbledore moved his right hand, which was like a burnt branch, dry and covered with black lines.

"Alastor was with me when I went to get the ring. We didn't touch the ring at that time, and we all thought it was okay." He looked at the sword of Gryffindor hanging on the wall, "When I came back and prepared to destroy this tempting ring, I didn't succeed the first time. I..."

Gloria remembered that in another world, Dumbledore often went to Slytherin Manor and tried to talk to several snakes.

When Badgillisk recovered in the fifth grade, he knew that the snake's venom could destroy Horcruxes, so he brought the Sword of Gryffindor during a visit and asked Badgillisk to spray some venom on it.

Basiliusk cherished his venom and only sprayed a little bit, but it still gave the sword the ability to destroy the Horcrux. Later, in another world, she let the sword absorb the venom for the second time.

"I can lift this curse. Give me your hand."

Dumbledore was stunned for a moment, thinking he had misheard, "This curse..."

"I know, but my Jörmungandr loves to eat all kinds of curses and magic." She took out the little white-scaled snake from her pocket.

Things have come to this point, so Dumbledore naturally wouldn't refuse.

Jörmungandr successfully ate the curse and found it quite delicious.

Then let the Sword of Gryffindor absorb the venom of Basil.

After doing all this, Gloria sat down and asked, "What time is it now?"

Dumbledore looked at his restored right hand and was amazed.

"Sixth grade is about to start, and the Death Eaters have begun to take action. The lives of both the Muggle world and wizards have been affected, but the Muggles thought they were all natural disasters."

Gloria nodded and said, "Something has changed now...Have you looked for Kreacher?"

"I have looked for it and got the Slytherin locket." Dumbledore took out the locket from the drawer. "This can also affect people's hearts, but fortunately it doesn't cast a curse."

"Is Kreacher all right?" she asked.

Dumbledore sighed, "He was very sad when Regulus disappeared. I tried to persuade him, but it was no use."

Gloria thought for a moment and said, "Principal Dumbledore, could you please go to the Black Mansion and tell Kreacher about my existence and ask him to wait for me."

The principal agreed without hesitation, "Of course."

After getting the answer, she immediately got down to business. In order to preserve these heirlooms, she specially made fake lockets, crowns, etc.

Golinia transferred the remaining soul to the fake locket and successfully saved the real Slytherin locket.

After solving these problems, Gloria disappeared into the office.

She had a lot to say, but each time she didn't stay long, so she could only wait until next time.

·

Gloria didn't expect that when she came out again, summer had passed and Hogwarts was covered with snow.

Looking at the lively decorations of the castle, you know that Christmas is here.

Harry and Luna were chatting in front, and Gloria remembered that there was a sixth grader named Slughorn who was very good at winning over potential students.

She wanted to follow, to see if Draco was there.

He only took a few steps before he stopped and saw a figure sitting at the corridor out of the corner of his eye.

Full of loneliness and solitude.

"Draco."

Hearing her voice, Draco looked up suddenly, then stood up and hugged her tightly.

"Lori—I thought I wouldn't see you for the entire school year."

Gloria put her arms around his waist, very thin...

"I will try harder to fight the control of the protective magic." She said: "Why are you so thin, and - why are you here alone?"

Draco lowered his eyes, "Nothing, I just want to be alone for a while."

Gloria felt that something must have happened. "What happened? Tell me."

Draco wanted to tell her everything, but Lori was bound by a protective spell, and it would not be good for her if he fought against it at all costs because of fear for her.

As long as he succeeded, as long as he waited until - after Lowry's birthday in 1998, everything would be fine.

"It's really nothing, it's just... the You-Know-Who brought the Death Eaters to use Malfoy Manor as their command base. I felt a little depressed, so I didn't go back during Christmas."

Gloria certainly knew what kind of people were among the Death Eaters. "It's a good thing not to go back. Are Lucius and Narcissa okay?"

Draco tried his best to remain normal and not let her notice anything unusual. "The mysterious man was not very satisfied with my father, but - he did not blame my father."

He was afraid that he would not be able to help but say something, so he hugged Gloria and said, "Let me stay with you for a while. I really miss you."

After his father was arrested and imprisoned in Azkaban, and the mysterious man assigned him the task of killing Dumbledore...

He really missed Lori, but was also glad that Lori came out occasionally. The mysterious man knew about her and was very interested in Lori's existence.

Fortunately, his father and mother realized the dire situation in the future early on and taught him to learn the art of brain occlusion.

Draco summoned up all his courage and fabricated a false memory to deceive Voldemort.

Gloria felt that Draco's body was very stiff. Voldemort's return had a huge impact on the Malfoy family.

"Draco, if there is anything, you must tell me and I will find a way to solve it for you."

Draco felt his eyes well up, but he held back the tears, "It's okay, it's just that the people in the academy are starting to get upset with me. I can handle that."

Gloria sensed his extremely depressed mood and kept stroking his back, trying to make him relax.
