Horcruxes and the Soul Guiding Box
"The soul has become extremely unstable..." Wizet murmured, but unable to suppress his curiosity, he asked again, "Slytherin Headmaster, what kind of consequences will this lead to?"
Salazar Slytherin countered, "Have you ever read a story called 'The Hairy Heart'?"
"The story of 'Hairy Heart'?" Wizet thought briefly. "If it's ' The Warlock's Hairy Heart '... I've read it."
Salazar Slytherin nodded. "Yes, that's the story."
Encouraging Wizet to speak and think will effectively prolong his lucid time.
Wizet understood this as well. He immediately searched his memory and read "The Warlock's Hairy Heart" again, trying to understand the side effects of Horcrux by reading and summarizing the story.
In "The Warlock's Hairy Heart," the wizard believes that emotions are extremely fragile, so he uses Dark Magic to separate his emotions, store them in his heart, and then lock them in Crystal Casket.
This is very similar to Horcrux. Voldemort probably wanted to avoid death, so he used Dark Magic to Soul Tear and store it in some kind of magical artifact, thus creating Horcrux.
In "The Warlock's Hairy Heart," the wizard loses his heart, which allows him to hold onto emotions, and thus becomes cold-blooded and ruthless, able to trample on the lives of others at will, which is why he kills his own fiancée.
Voldemort was equally ruthless and even had a crazy temperament, blaming Dumbledore for all the mistakes and believing that he became the way he was because of Dumbledore.
At the same time, he was only using Quirrell and didn't care about Quirrell's life or death at all, which is why he didn't hesitate to extract Quirrell's life force so that he could have more mobility.
After analyzing these two key points, Wizet began, "Slytherin Headmaster, so... after creating the Horcrux..."
"Their humanity or emotions will be stripped away, and they will become numb, even showing a crazy side, right?"
"Yes!" Salazar Slytherin affirmed. "You've extracted the most important points; it seems the person you mentioned did indeed create Horcrux. Do you have any further questions for me?"
While taking notes, Wizet asked, "Slytherin Headmaster, I don't know just how similar Horcrux are to ' The Warlock's Hairy Heart '..."
"But I see something in this that seems to deviate quite a bit from some of the situations I'm currently facing."
"Oh?" Salazar Slytherin raised an eyebrow. "Tell me about it!"
"Slytherin Headmaster ..." Wizet drew a few lines in her notebook, "...to consider Horcrux based on the Warlock's Hairy Heart ... Under normal circumstances, it lacks autonomous action."
"Only when it realizes that danger is coming can it put up some resistance, just like in ' The Warlock's Hairy Heart,' the hairy heart doesn't want to go back to the Crystal Casket, right?"
Salazar Slytherin raised an eyebrow, a hint of mockery in his voice. "You mean... you encountered Horcrux capable of acting on its own?"
"I'm afraid so." Wizet. "Compared to the person I met last year, the person I'm meeting now... seems to be much more calculating."
He recalled his previous conversation with Dumbledore, saying, "According to Headmaster Dumbledore, there might be a second soul... a younger, more cunning soul."
"There's such a fool?" Salazar Slytherin's mockery was even more pronounced. "Looks like he didn't know his limits when making the Horcrux."
Following Salazar Slytherin's words, Wizet tentatively asked, "So this happened because he Soul Tear too many souls?"
Salazar Slytherin waved his hand. "If this person just can't die, then he's probably made Horcrux."
"If one soul is acting and there are obvious differences, then it is highly likely that too many souls have Soul Tear."
"Of course, this judgment is based on your description, and I cannot guarantee that it is accurate. You need to understand that."
"Because there are many types of magic...and many special cases." Wizet nodded in understanding. "Slytherin Headmaster, how should I deal with this soul?"
Now that the matter concerning Voldemort has been clarified, it's time to consider solutions.
Although he was also interested in Horcrux, now was not the time to study them in depth, and Salazar Slytherin clearly did not have that much energy.
"Use Spell Command ..." Salazar Slytherin murmured, "And add a vessel that's like a soul..."
"Patronus Charm?" Wizet raised her wand. "Expecto Patronum!"
Obscurus Patronus leaped from the tip of the wand, radiating warmth towards the surroundings.
"Hoo..." Salazar Slytherin took a deep breath, as if enjoying the warmth.
His spirits seemed to lift a bit. "A very powerful Patronus, with more emotions than I imagined... It is indeed a vessel for the soul. Who taught you to do this?"
Wizet replied, "Professor Snape taught me very comprehensively how to cast the Patronus Charm... in a way that is different from the usual way of casting Patronus Charm."
"Oh! You mentioned this wizard to me." Salazar Slytherin recalled, "He's the Potions Class professor at Slytherin House, and apparently also skilled in Defence Against the Dark Arts ..."
"That's how a Slytherin student should be!" He nodded in satisfaction. "But your Patronus Charm ... why hasn't it materialized into Corporeal Patronus yet?"
"Actually, I'm already Corporeal Patronus," Wizet said truthfully, "But I'm currently in the form of Obscurus."
"It's in Obscurus form now?" Salazar Slytherin's tone revealed a hint of surprise.
He narrowed his eyes slightly, examined it carefully, and then nodded. "Very deceptive. According to you... you have other forms of Corporeal Patronus?"
Wizet nodded. "There are two other forms as well."
"Hmm..." Salazar Slytherin hesitated, then finally rubbed his temples. "Let's begin!"
"Maintain the Corporeal Patronus, and at the same time, release your Spell Command act upon the Corporeal Patronus..."
Spell Command are somewhat similar to Ancient Magic Power; by activating Spell Command during the casting process, magic can acquire related properties.
Wizet was quite familiar with this, and after patiently listening to the entire process, she cast the Spell Command without any hesitation.
"N (nauthiz)!"
His eyes emitted a gray light, forming a shape resembling a "?", as he lunged at the Corporeal Patronus floating in mid-air.
A layer of gray shell appeared, quickly covering the Corporeal Patronus completely. The Obscurus, illusory fluctuations solidified, transforming into the shape of a statue.
"This is the ' Soul Guiding Box '..." Salazar Slytherin's lips curled up. "Compared to Horcrux, the Soul Guiding Box has a unique attraction for souls that Soul Tear too much."
