Chapter 56

"This shack belongs to the Gaunt family."

"What! You are telling me that this shack belongs to the Gaunt family one of the sacred 28."

"Yes, it belongs to them, more accurately their ancestral house where the last Lord used to live before he is murdered."

"But the Gaunt family was wealthy and famous for their grandeur lifestyle. How can this be their ancestral home?"

"They lost all of their wealth on grandeur lifestyle."

Harry then went inside to search for the stone after saying this and Remus and Sirius followed him.

Inside there is nothing much, there is some furniture but is in bad condition just like the house. Harry then started to search for the ring with Remus and Sirius helping him.

"Search for the ring, I don't know what it looks like but I think that it has a crest similar to this."

Harry then shows them the sign of the Deathly Hollow so that know what they have to search for. Lady Death already shows him what the stone looks like when she sends the memories about the stone when he first met with Thestral.

It only takes him 15 minutes to find the ring but there is something else he found with the ring, a book. A book about parseltongue, a language he can speak but he doesn't know how exactly. Every time he speaks with the snake it happens naturally and he didn't even realize that he is speaking in Parseltongue.

He want to learn more about parseltongue but was unable to find any sort of useful book which help him in learning parseltongue. He heard from Daphne that she found in the book about the history of sacred 28 that the Gaunt family is related to the Slytherin family and has many traits of Slytherin.

Harry picks up both the ring and book and calls Remus and Sirius to leave this place.

"Sirius, Moony."

Both of them come to where Harry is.

"Found something?"

"Yes, and also something extra."

Harry shows them the Ring and book in his hand.

"Let's get out of here. We have to visit Gringotts to remove the curse."

After taking the ring and book they left the place and went towards the Diagon Alley to visit Gringotts.

____________(Gringotts)____________

Harry went towards the Goblin present in the reception and said.

"I am Harry James Potter and I want to meet with the Potter vault manager, Griphook."

"Wizard wait here."

The Goblin said this and call another Goblin who is dressed in armor and tell him to bring Griphook here to meet with Harry Potter. It only took a couple of minutes for Griphook to come and greet them.

"Welcome Harry, I am waiting for your visit after your letter last time. We have already prepared everything for your request."

Harry already send a letter to Gringotts explaining about the Gaunt Lord ring and it being Horcrux of Voldemort. Gringotts insure him that they will release the curse without damaging the ring, he just has to bring the ring to the Gringotts.

"Here is the ring."

Harry said when he hand over the ring to the Griphook so that the Goblin can remove the Horcrux from it.

"You all can sit in the private quarter until we remove that dark curse."

Griphook then led them to the private room and leave three of them in the room and went outside with the ring. It takes him half an hour when he comes back with the ring in his hand.

"We complete your request. It is completely removed from any time of the curse."

Griphook said after handling the ring to Harry.

"Thank you, Griphook. It is very helpful."

"It is not a big deal and we also got some profit from restoring the ring."

Harry looks at Griphook with a very confused look.

"The Gaunt ring is lost for quite a long time and if the ring is not restored then that means the line is dead. The Gringotts are going to get Gallons from the Ministry as we restore the Most and Noble House of Gaunt, one of the sacred 28."

Harry nodded at Griphook's words. He learned that Goblin loves their Gold and tries to protect them at any cost and they also like to collect more and more Gold.

"Why don't you try to put the ring?"

Griphook said to Harry which caught him off-guard, but before he can reply Sirius speak up.

"No, Harry is going to get cursed if he were the Lord ring of the family he doesn't belong."

Griphook looks at Sirius and tells him in a very calm voice to make him understand.

"It is not going to curse Harry. If Harry is not worthy, the ring will come out of the ring automatically."

"Are you sure?"

"Yes, Harry. You can wear the ring and it will not curse you. If you are not worth the ring is going to come out of your finger."

Harry then put the ring on the same finger he is wearing his heir ring, He trusts Griphook but he is still scared while putting the ring and hopes that nothing bad will happen after he put the ring.
