Harry Potter and the Secret Treasures-Chapter 779: The Harbinger of Doom

Updated from 𝙛𝙧𝓮𝓮𝙬𝓮𝒃𝒏𝓸𝒗𝓮𝙡.𝓬𝓸𝓶

After the Harbinger of Doom Disapparated, Kagal was clearly relieved and relaxed.

He turned around and looked at the house-elves on the platform fiercely, tortured them with spells with a wicked smile on his face.

Evan was still thinking about what the other wizard had just said, which revealed a lot of important information.

What they had extracted from the Cyclops was being accumulated in something called energy stone, and they seemed to have accumulated a lot…

Besides, that Dark wizard called the Harbinger of Doom was preparing to meet Voldemort.

Before that, he would take the energy stone and the crystals excavated by the house-elves to a certain city to summon an ancient existence.

What was this ancient existence? And where was that city?

Gryffindor’s thoughts on the scabbard asked Evan to stop them and prevent them from taking away the power of the Cyclops.

But the Harbinger of Doom had already Disapparated and left, and it was too late to stop him.

In addition to the house-elves on the platforms, there were many Dark wizards of Raven’s Claw patrolling nearby.

Before inserting the scabbard into the Cyclops’s eye, it wouldn’t be smart to ‘stomp the grass and startle the snakes’*. Besides, there were still a lot of things Evan didn’t know. [*Editor Note: Chinese idiom.]

He needed to investigate and find out what the Dark wizards of Raven’s Claw were going to do.

“You control some elves and lead the guy above the stone platform down to the tunnel we just came from.” Sirius was equally puzzled. He leaned close to Evan’s ear and whispered, “I’ll ambush him there, catch this guy, and get some information from him…”

Evan nodded, and Sirius directly Disapparated away, hiding in the tunnel.

Evan carefully approached the stone wall, pointed his wand at two house-elves, and cast a nonverbal spell. The next second, the controlled house-elves made a harsh scream, and threw the spades fiercely to the ground.

The house-elves around them stopped and looked at them in awe, with unconcealed panic on their faces.

“These two are mad, and the evil Dark wizard could kill them immediately!” Their fellow house-elves thought.

“Damn it, what are you two bastards doing? Pick up the spades and get back to work, otherwise I’ll skin you alive!” Kagal growled, waving his wand and releasing two green spells.

Under Evan’s control, the two house-elves leaped to avoid the spell. They made a rude face at the thundering Kagal and ran straight down the tunnel.

Kagal kept cursing, waving his wand to cast spells, and chasing after them…

The other house-elves and Raven’s Claw wizards looked at them dumbfounded. Something similar did happen every few weeks. Unable to stand the pressure and torture, many house-elves would sneak away or hide indolent.

But never did any elves show blatant rebellion such as this. These two elves were insane!

Kagal had said it; if he caught them, he would definitely skin them alive!

By the time Evan returned to the tunnel, Kagal had fainted, and Sirius was standing beside him with his wand in his hand.

“What an idiot! He was so busy trying to catch these two elves that he didn’t even see me right next to him,” he gasped, using his wand to cast the Incarcerous Spell and bind the Dark wizard on the ground. “Well, let me think about how we could get him to squeal…”

“No need to bother, I have Veritaserum here,” said Evan, opening his cloak and looking at the surprised Sirius. “It’s not as good as Snape’s, but a few more drops would still make him tell us what we need to know.”

From the cloth bag, he took out a crystal bottle, which contained a transparent liquid.

In fact, it was thanks to Caresius, who had pillaged Snape’s office last time and gave all the potions ingredients to Evan. Using some of those precious ingredients, Evan made this small bottle of Veritaserum, which was hard to acquire anywhere else.

Sirius took the bottle, opened Kagal’s mouth and poured a few drops into it.

“Well, that should do it!” said Evan, waving his wand to awaken Kagal. Just like Barty Crouch Jr., he opened his eyes, blank, without focus…

“Let’s try!” said Sirius. “What’s your name?”

“Kagal Lombardi!” He said slowly, his voice dull.

“Are you a Raven’s Claw Dark wizard? What are you doing here?”

“Yes, I am a member of Raven’s Claw. We are here to absorb power from the Cyclops’s body and supervise the house-elves. They are digging out the citrines in the rock walls. The Harbinger of Doom says that the crystals have great power within them…”

“Who is this Harbinger of Doom?” Evan asked.

“He is a high-ranking member of the organization, the most loyal servant of our master, a Raven’s Claw fanatic, and a harbinger of disaster and destruction. No one has ever seen his real face. I only know that he is the last husband of the murderous Dark witch Natalia.”

“The Dark Witch Natalia?!” Evan was impressed with the name, as though he had seen it somewhere before.

“I’ve heard of the name. Black Rose Natalia, also known as Black Widow, is a very famous witch in Italy,” Sirius told Evan. “Of course, you may not know of her. Natalia was active more than 70 years ago. It is said that she was a supporter of Grindelwald. She was a dazzling witch with outstanding beauty. But don’t think that just because she was a woman, you could look down on her. All those who belittled her have gone to hell.”

Hearing Sirius, Evan remembered and knew who the Dark witch Natalia was. As Sirius said, all those who went against Natalia were to be doomed! That was not just alarmist talk. That was exactly what happened.

The Dark witch Natalia was one of the most notorious witches in modern Italian history and a follower of Grindelwald. She was a member of an ancient family of pure-blood wizards in Italy and completed her studies in Durmstrang.

Natalia was very beautiful and had no shortage of suitors. After graduation, she soon got married.

Then her husband died, on the night of the wedding, and this was just the beginning of a horrible nightmare.

In the following years, Natalia relied on her beauty and ingenious cover-up to marry the sole descendants of the twelve ancient pure-blood wizard families, and got rid of them all without leaving any trace like a black widow spider.

By inheriting her husbands’ fortunes, the woman quickly became one of the richest women in Italy and even in Europe.

After Grindelwald’s rise, she joined him like other evil Dark wizards, and soon gained attention. She was the leader of his followers in Italy, southern Europe, and the African region of the southern Mediterranean, and gained a reputation second only to Grindelwald. fre enovelkiss.com
