Harry Potter: Dimensional Wizardchapter 341: arcane spark

Hermione walked into one of the lab rooms, looking at the busy Fleur.

"How is your research going?"

"I've just finished analyzing the DNA of the Crimson Magic Clan. Now, I'm studying Aqua's divine bloodline and the bloodline of a succubus. Their ability to place people into a lustful dream has inspired me."

Fleur once modified her Veela Bloodline to a higher level of a Succubus. However, the process is incomplete since the Succubus she used to model hers was a low-level one summoned using the book [Solomon's Key.]

"You finished analyzing it so soon?"

"Honestly, it was not as hard as I anticipated. After Wiz teleported me close to the Crimson Clan Village and stole their blood, the process was quite smooth."

"It could be because of Law Interference Theory," said Hermione.

Edward and the Illuminati Group noticed a strange phenomenon while studying DNA/Bloodline back home. Although the Wizard Gene was discovered long ago amongst the wizards of the old era, it was impossible to modify the genes of muggles to grant them magical abilities.

Bloodline infusion was possible, but it was a significant risk with a low survival rate, even to this day. At first, everyone believed it was because the Empire's Genetic Engineering was not on par. But as the technology developed, it was still difficult. In fact, even studies in this domain seemed extremely slow compared to others.

Then, Edward came up with the Law Interference Theory. According to him, magic–most likely because of its high ceiling–is a gift from the universe itself, so only a few lucky people can have the talent for it–not counting inheriting it from their parents.

The research of genetically engineering wizards or granting people with magical talent goes against the essence of the universe. So, the universe itself interfered with or slowed down any research in this field.

And the only way to deal with this issue is to do this research in another universe and brings them back. Now, the flaw of this theory is that if the universe does not allow every individual to have magical talent, it could render the research useless after bringing it back.

However, recently, Edward discovered that after each voyage, he would bring back records of the laws or operations of other universes. And Cronai–the Universe Will–will take these records and supplement the HP Universe. This is one of the reasons that a universal power system like Gate Alchemy functioned in the HP universe.

"So, can we recreate it back in the Empire?" asked Hermione.

"There should be no problem, but we won't know for sure until we get back. How about you? How is your research?"

"Not very good. I have analyzed the Adventure's Card connection to the job classes' unique bloodline and soul. It is similar to the concept of inherited memories we discovered in high-level bloodlines like dragons."

"So, the skills are like inherited memories; they are like instinct engraved directly in the genes. It would explain how they can use them easily without much effort."

"Correct. Unfortunately, this is all I have discovered so far. I still have no idea how the card is created or how the level-up system operates."

"Didn't you analyze the Card Making Machines we stole?"

"Yes, Morgana is currently running diagnostic on it, but there is nothing so far. It seems we lack the correct direction."

"What about Lily?" asked Fleur.

"She's studying the Divine Spark, but she's not having any luck either."

"Then, what about the Skill-Up Potion? Didn't you learn anything from it?"

"No. Snape can make the potion by following the steps and using the Potion Making Skill but still has not discovered how it works."

"Well, there is no need to rush things. We still have a lot of time."

"That's true."

"Is that it? If not, I have to go capture an ancient dragon."

"We need to have a meeting on our overall plan for this world."

Fleur nodded before heading to the lounge where Snape and Lily waited. Everyone got some tea and sat down to chat.

"What do you guys think we should do?" Hermione asked. "Do you think we should establish the Arcane Empire in this place?"

"It should be easy to conquer this world with a Golem Legion, but is it truly worth it?" commented Lily.

"One thing for sure is we need to get these Gods on our side or capture them if necessary. The fact they are a species who can transform faith into mana makes them extremely valuable," said Snape. "There is a high chance we will accomplish the project of allowing a body to have both mana and divine energy through them."

"In that case, we will need to enter Heaven at some point. If we establish the Arcane Empire, these gods will suspect something," Fleur commented. "Not to mention we still have not found the other dimensions they send reincarnators into."

"I think the current best plan is to defeat this so-called Demon King and send Aqua back home. Then, we can use her to infiltrate Heaven and learn about them secretly," said Lily.

"That's a good i…dea…," Hermione said as she looked dazed in the distance, and the others quickly became quiet and did not say a word. A few minutes later, she said, "Do you think the leveling and skill point system works based on Karma?"

"What do you mean?" asked Fleur.

"In this dimension, monsters, undead, and demons are considered bad or harmful, while humans, adventurers, and gods are the good guys. Every time someone kills a monster, they receive positive karma.

"Then, after gathering a certain amount of karma, it can be used to enhance their stats (level up) or transform into a mysterious energy or power[Skill Point] that allows them to instantly learn knowledge, modifying their bloodlines, etc."

"You referring to Karma Empowerment," said Lily. "This might make sense. The Divine Spark might also use a form of Karma Empowerment. It could explain why it could boost the gods' spells.

"If Arcanists could have a Divine Spark, no, an Arcane Spark, we might be able to use our person Karma–both good or bad–as a form of energy to boost our spells; we can use Sacred Spells."

Fleur gave her thumbs for that name; if Edward were here, he would be pleased with her naming sense.

"Morgana, show me all the research we have on Karma," said Hermione before scrolling through many documents. Many of the Buddhist Arcanists in India and Tibet have studied Karma. Furthermore, Edward brought a Karma Divine Treasure back from the previous voyage, so he did some preliminary studies as well.

"Although not much, it's a start."

Lily and Snape accessed the same file to help in their relative research.

"Let's work together since we have overlapping similarities," said Hermione, and the others agreed.

"Before I forget, for you guys," said Snape, handing them a few vials of grey liquid.

"The Purification Process is finished. With these, we can reach Tier 7 in about five years."

"So fast?"

"I have to say: Aqua is truly the most talented person regarding purification. Her status as a water goddess and the Arch Priestess is the perfect combination."

Indeed. Water is often used for healing and purification in many customs, myths, legends, or magic systems. So, it is an excellent combination for the priestess job class.

"Can you make the potion without her?" asked Lily.

"Yes, but not nearly as effective as this one."

"What's the ratio?"

"Think of it that way. The standard version from Fleur's Purification can make us reach Tier 7 in 50 years. As for ordinary Priests in this world, the time would take at least three times."

"Quite the difference."

"In the grand scheme of things, 150 years is not long, but the difference is quite noticeable," commented Hermione. "When she arrives in the Empire, she will become very sought after because of her Purification Powers."

"I think she will be exploited instead by the National Potion Association unless she becomes a potion-maker herself," commented Fleur.

"With that girl's intelligence, I doubt that. However, Kazuma will be with her, so that won't happen. Instead, she will thrive," Hermione disagreed. "Well, forget this for now. Let's begin our research. Do you want to help us?"

Fleur shook her head, "This world seems to be lucky charms regarding my bloodline research. So, I'm going out to gather more research specimens."

"In that case, don't forget to visit Wiz and convince her."

Bang! Bang!

Before the group could disperse, they heard someone knocking at the door, so Fleur went to open it up.
