Harry Potter: Dimensional Wizard
chapter-513

Edward's theory soon proved to be correct. The disk artifact can resonate with the [Guardian Authority] while also borrowing Cronai's Will to boost its strength. Meanwhile, the other one is connected to a unique authority called [Self].

This authority involved the Body, Soul, Mind, Memories, and other aspects of the self. However, the authority also allows Gods to become the divinity of a certain race, like the God of Elves, the God of Dwarves, and so on.

"There seems to be another power affected when using this artifact," said Morgana, pointing at the disk.

"Any idea?"

"I do, actually," she said excitedly as if the fact she discovered it before him was some great achievement. Edward rolled his eyes, "Get on with it."

"It's the power of myth we've been studying."

"Oh, really?" Edward has been trying to recreate the Hall of Heroes from the Fate Universe by slowly studying the Power of Myth and condensing heroes based on their legends or spoken words. However, even after the data he gathered from the reincarnators in his last voyage, the process has been slow,

"Yes, there seems to be a strange power directly related to the magus that this artifact used to boost its strength, similar to our Karma Empowerment," explained Morgana. "I think our theory that this galaxy was the birthplace of the Magus Race was correct."

"So, when Guzznad tried to protect this place from the Gods, the myths, legends, and accomplishments of the Magus Race formed a unique power that the artifact used to protect its holy place of origin?"

"Correct."

"Primordial Runes are alive, meaning they might have some level of consciousness that allows them to adapt to the situation and use their power to its highest efficiency," commented Edward, his eyes shining brighter than ever. He must control such power.

He no longer wasted time and focused on studying and recreating the Primordial Rune. He began with imitation by simply memorizing the complex rune and drawing it by hand with mana.

However, such a task was already nightmare-level difficulty for most arcanists. The reason is every single line of the rune required a different frequency.

Drawing it was as if someone was controlling their heartbeat. In one second, it was fifty beats per second, then the next, it dropped to 12 beats per second, and the next second, it rose again.

Such a description does not even do justice to how difficult such a process was because Edward did not have seconds to change his Mana Frequency but microseconds—such a task required unimaginable Mana Control.

"Now, I understand why our Mana Frequency is so versatile and changeable," commented Morgana once she saw Edward finished. The core of why Arcanists are so special and unique is because they inherited the unique Mana Frequency of Wizards, which inherited it from the bloodline of the Magus Race.

"Our destiny is connected to the Magus Race whether we want to or not," added Edward. "I don't know whether this is a good or bad thing. However, everything will be fine as long as we can learn from them but not walk the same path."

"True."

"One more thing: increase the Mana Control Curriculum from now on," Edward ordered. "Furthermore, the Mana Sage Mode should become a core part of the Magic System."

Morgana nodded as she understood his meaning. In the future, if more Arcanists are to wield Primordial Runes, they need to prepare early on. After the Empire entered the age of magic, a new education reform was about to happen.

Now, all citizens have magical talent, leading the next generation to be born with a higher and purer soul. So, the Education Department is preparing to instill knowledge in children after birth.

Then, based on the brain and soul development of the child, memories about language, writing, history, and geography will appear in their mind, removing the slow process of learning these things.

Such a method will remove Pre-K and elementary school years, allowing the child to start learning magic at an earlier age. Furthermore, according to predictions made by the department, such a process will no longer be under the government's jurisdiction.

Children of the future will instead inherit knowledge from their parents through bloodline.

Morgana suddenly chuckled.

"What's wrong?"

"Nothing." She just thought how funny it would be when some talented children of the Empire immediately began to talk after being born.

Morgana stopped wasting time and sent Edward's order to the Department.

"I can already see how many children will secretly curse you after seeing their new curriculum," she commented.

"They should praise me for paving the future for them," countered Edward. "Plus, they would only blame the Minister of Education, not me."

Edward did not continue this topic and focused on the rune before him. He successfully copied the Primordial Rune, but that's only a copy. If he wishes to master it truly, there are a few more steps to take, and the main one is how to make them [alive].

His first thought was just to fuse a powerful soul to the rune, but he shook his head.

'This method might work, but it feels primitive. Let's find a way for it to awaken a soul or a consciousness.'

Countless ideas flashed in his mind as he thought of a plan. He engraved the rune a second time. However, while changing the mana frequency, he also infused his soul energy to change the rune's wavelength to match that of a normal brain wave.

Finding the correct wavelength for these ever-changing frequencies was a nightmare. However, Morgana's calculating prowess soon. However, his attempt failed at the last second.

"Why did it fail?" asked Morgana; they've done trillions of calculations and should have succeeded. "It seems we are missing something. What is it?" She looked at Edward. In this kind of situation, a flash of ingenuity is needed; otherwise, they will have to spend years scrolling through dates before finding the answer.

"Soul… Consciousness…Spirit…Mind…Memories? No, maybe instinct. That's not it," muttered Edward as he found the answer was on the tip of his tongue.

"Willpower," yelled Morgana, who deduced the answer based on his words; she gave him a smug look as if saying, "Do you see what I'm capable of?

Edward ignored her. He tried again, adding his Willpower to the equation.

"Success," said Edward as he saw his runes becoming [alive]. His eyes became alive, removing the somber cloud that had been over his head in the past few days.

He focused on the next component of mastering the rune: Authority Resonance and Planar Will Blessing. Edward had already mastered a few Advance Dragon Languages and was already familiar with Authority Resonance.

Additionally, he studied Shinjutsu and was familiar with the Universe Will Blessing. With this knowledge as a foundation, he soon mastered his first Primordial Rune: the Defense Rune.

Somewhere in the Void:

Old Man Merlin had a tired look on his face. He suddenly sensed something and gazed in one direction. His eyes squinted: "This kid already mastered Primordial Rune?"

He has not been paying much attention to his apprentice, so he was shocked by this sudden development. His eyes scanned the past and saw how things enveloped.

"This kid," he said with a smile. Edward might not know how shocking what he has done is, but he knows. The Magus Race, who has two Aspects, being on the same level as him, did not master Primordial Rune so fast.

When they first discovered such magical knowledge, they also had to fuse other souls into the Primordial Rune to achieve the level of becoming alive. That's one of the main reasons they conquered so many planes–to acquire souls.

It took them millions of years of development before they could reach Edward's level of making runes without any soul.

The Magus Race was very advanced for their age, as only Tier 12 entities will start involving Primordial Runes. As for the Void Runes? Only a few geniuses of Tier 14 will begin to learn them, but Tier 15 is truly required for everybody else.

That Old Guy Odin was lucky and had an opportunity to learn Primordial Rune at Tier 12 and soon rose to become a legend.

"I'm proud of you, kid," muttered Merlin. However, he did not dare go see him as the current situation could endanger Edward if they met.
