Hogwarts: Wizards of Eternity.

Chapter 40: The Gardener Prophet and the Reflective Demon

"Immortality, immortality, indestructibility, indestructibility..." After finishing the conversation with Harry, Roger returned to the familiar Hogwarts library. With the end of Quidditch, there were more people in the library.

Roger designed his future plan on paper, which was a step closer to eternal life.

I have already started to practice the path to immortality. With the help of alchemy, perhaps I will have some progress in the next one or two years.

I am still thinking about the path to immortality. Longevity is the realm of body and soul, while immortality is more about the realm of mind. Even if the theoretical life span is long, if the mind cannot withstand the erosion of time and becomes tired and numb from living, it cannot be called immortality.

There is no rush for this. Besides, other people can't help much in the field of "self". You can wait until you are almost done with the path to immortality before starting.

The problem is the other roads behind.

How to achieve immortality.

The physical body is immortal. If one's Transfiguration can reach the extreme, even if one's body turns into ashes, it can be easily restored. But how can the soul be immortal?

Through some knowledge from his past life, Roger believes that 'time', 'concept' and 'existence' are all possible paths.

I will let my existence penetrate time and space, and I will not die if time and space are not destroyed, or I will become a meme creature, living in the subconscious sea of all living beings, and I will not die if all living beings are not dead, or I will become a conceptual body, and I can be resurrected countless times as long as there is a certain concept in the universe...

Now Roger has exhausted all his energy in studying immortality, and he really cannot spare the energy to think about things that are more than an order of magnitude more difficult than immortality.

So Roger planned to outsource the path to immortality and indestructibility just like he outsourced a certain path to longevity to Hagrid.

I don't ask the other party to produce any results, as long as they conduct some related research, so that when I want to get involved in this field in the future, I don't have to start from scratch in the dark.

There is no need for the other party to conduct relevant research in the field of "immortality". Simply studying "time" itself is enough to save himself a lot of time and energy.

Roger has had this idea since the incident with Hagrid, but he never had the chance to put it into practice.

There is a huge difference between magic and scientific research.

As long as you invest a lot of money in scientific research, even if scientists don’t like the research, as long as they keep doing experiments, they can get some results.

But magic, something that is highly related to the mind, if you don’t have the relevant fit, obsession and passion in a certain field, then it will be difficult for you to achieve much.

So, even if Roger wanted to sow some seeds, wait for time to pass, and reap the rewards, there was no suitable person.

Until this conversation with Harry, Roger found that he might have some similar mentality at the moment.

However, Roger did not take this matter too seriously. An 11-year-old boy is innocent and has a changeable mind. His current determination to reverse time and space for his parents does not mean that he can keep his original intention in a few years when he is young.

Once you lose the fearless state of mind, it will be very difficult to get it back.

So Harry's matter was just a casual move of his. If Harry succeeded, Roger would be very happy.

Even if Harry gave up halfway, Roger would not lose anything. All he had to give was to point out a few directions at the critical moment.

...On the other side of the library, Voldemort, who was using Quirrell's body to look for information related to the Prophet, did not know that during the time when he was concentrating on reading, Roger changed Harry's fate.

At this moment, Voldemort's heart was filled with helplessness.

Because after searching for information for almost a day, he found that the information about famous prophets from ancient times to the present in the library was recorded in great detail, and some books also mentioned how to deal with prophets.

For example, the book "The Noise of Fate" describes how prophets use predictions to interfere with the predictions of other prophets, making it more difficult for the other party to observe the future.

Well, this method requires the user to be a powerful prophet who can make predictions at any time.

There is also "Man Conquers Nature". The author of this book put forward a conjecture: if someone's hatred of fate reaches a nearly insane level, he may be able to hide himself in "fate" by casting spells of magic riot.

This is indeed a method, but in order to perfect the conjecture into a magic that can be used normally, Quirrell must reach a level where he can cast this kind of magic... Voldemort estimated his own talent in the field of destiny, and he might not be able to complete it even if he devoted himself to it within 20 years.

The same is true for most other methods. They either require Quirrell to have superb talents in the field of destiny, or they require some prophecy artifacts that only exist in legends.

There weren't many high-end destiny magics that didn't involve riddles, and Voldemort quickly searched through them all.

He summed it up. If you want to fight against fate, you must either use the power of prophecy, or your power must be greater than the sum of the power of fate, so you can use force to defeat cleverness.

There really is no other way to cheat.

Do I really have to admit defeat?
Voldemort, who couldn't find a way to break through Quirrell, wanted to try to break through Roger.

such as……

"Professor Quirrell, if you defeat me in a head-on magic duel, I will give you the Philosopher's Stone. You may not attempt to obtain the Philosopher's Stone by any other means before the game with me is over."

...Tsk, is this also within your calculation, Prophet?

Recalling one of the conditions of the Unbreakable Vow, Voldemort ended his train of thought.

At this moment, Voldemort began to reflect.

Just a little game between him and the prophet had put him in such an embarrassing situation.

Can he really break the prophecy of the Dark Lord and the Savior as expected?
Could it be that the kid with the glasses really become his own gravedigger?
I have so many Horcruxes, don't I?

After realizing that the power of the prophecy of fate was even stronger than he had originally thought, a thought suddenly flashed through Voldemort's mind: "Should I also leave some backup plans for Harry Potter's affairs?"

I didn’t have enough time to make the bet with the little prophet, so it would be difficult to win no matter what.

But Harry Potter is different. It will take him many years to grow up, which is enough time for him to make some arrangements to crack the prophecy of the savior!

The next morning, before Roger could wait for Harry, Hagrid unexpectedly came to his door first.

"What? Your Tiny Magical Creature is now?!"

"No, uh, I can't say. The situation is complicated. Anyway, you'll know if you come and take a look." Hagrid looked haggard, as if he had been staying up all night for several days and nights. He was scratching his head and looked very distressed.

Seeing that Hagrid looked like his language organization ability was challenged, Roger said nothing and followed him to the cottage next to the Forbidden Forest.

After that...

Roger was in the cabin, looking at Hagrid's work, with a toothache expression on his face and his brows furrowed even deeper than Hagrid's.

"this thing……"

This strange creature gave Roger a vague sense of seeing the warp demons under the command of the four good men, such as Khorne and Tzeentch.

The Witcher 40K? I don't want this world line!
"Hagrid...can you tell me how you cultivated it?"
