Task Settlement and the Inheritance of Paths
"Bite!"
A mechanical voice sounded in the ears of the four Champion simultaneously, and a pale blue box that only they could see popped up automatically.
[The mission [Prevent the Dark Magic Fairy from stealing the Magic Fairy Colorful Stone] has been completed. Settlement will now be processed.]
The four of them sighed in dismay. Was it really over?
In their minds, they should have spent six months or more receiving advanced education in the world's profound magic before completing their mission.
Instead of spending less than four days here and taking a total of eight classes.
(Many viewers shared the same feeling: this magnificent and powerful magical world had only just begun to unveil some of its mysteries, but with the completion of the mission, they were unable to see more.)
[Champion: Fleur Delacour, Heroic Spirits: Ariana Dumbledore]
Within the four-person frame, all the key scenes of Phoebe in this world flashed by in an instant.
Through communication with Percy, I learned for the first time that elves can live forever, the composition of the three realms, and the history of Balala's rise.
They blocked Voldemort's Killing Curse, only to find him running away.
[Conclusion: Task contribution percentage: 5%]
Phoebe covered her face, and in that instant, those grand words and the scenes of showing off in front of Krum flashed through her mind. Now, they all turned into spinning blades and stabbed her hard.
(Dumbledore and Phoebe's supporters sighed.)
[Champion: Cedric Diggory, Heroic Spirits: Tom Riddle]
The images within the box change.
The first thing to do is to look through the letters and find the key element.
The first to know about elves and Magic Immortal Artifact.
The first to understand the Dark Holy Race, the path.
The first contact with the mission objective.
Guide the task objectives to shorten the task time, and be the first to find the Magic Fairy Colorful Stone.
Protect the lives of the mission target.
[The conclusion is that the task's contribution accounted for 59%]
Cedric was dumbfounded. "I've been tanking all along, how did I still win in the end?"
Inside the Magic Immortal Artifact, the monotonous room was suddenly filled with brilliant sunlight, and Riddle revealed an excited smile.
(Voldemort and Barty Crouch Jr.. burst into laughter.)
(Amos Diggory, Cho Chang, and other supporters of Cedric, because Riddle is his Heroic Spirits, are unsure whether to be happy or sad.)
[Champion: Harry Potter, Heroic Spirits: Lily Potter]
The main character in the picture has changed to Harry.
The first thing to learn is the background information about the Magic Fairy King, the Dark Magic Fairy, the Spell-Speaking Magic Fairy, and the names of the spells.
The first to know the correct story of the Magic Fairy Colorful Stone.
The wrong conclusion was drawn.
The Reflecting Killing Curse consumed most of Voldemort's magic power, forcing him to flee.
[Conclusion: Task contribution percentage: 9%]
Harry felt much more relaxed; at least he wasn't at the bottom.
(Snape sighed, but Harry's performance was already quite good compared to Phoebe's.)
[Champion: Viktor Krum, Heroic Spirits: The Prewett Brothers]
The main subject of the scene changes again.
The first to know Riddle's specific information.
The erroneous information observed by the elves reinforces Harry Potter's flawed conclusions.
Lead the other Champion into the mist and into the correct space.
To resist Voldemort's Killing Curse.
The professor led the way, and we captured Voldemort.
The conclusion is that the task's contribution accounted for 27%.
Krum was incredibly excited; he couldn't believe he had achieved such a great result.
(Durmstrang instantly transformed into a sea of joy.)
[Countdown begins now, consider this as the world's remaining time—59:59]
[After time resets to zero, the system will enter the settlement phase, where rewards will be distributed.]
The light blue box disappeared.
The four of them exchanged glances, and at that moment they all understood one thing: they only had one hour left to stay in this world.
The most important thing to do right now is to quickly download the books and materials within your authorized access range to your local computer.
So, almost simultaneously, they took out the treasure book.
"Ahem," Riddle said awkwardly, "This is certainly something worth talking about on the forum, but could you please not spread it around for my sake?"
"If you agree, I can consider it."
Before Riddle could finish speaking, the four of them were already lost in thought and couldn't help but voice their own answers.
Harry, "Secret magic?"
Phoebe, "Higher access to the Treasure Book?"
Krum, "Rare gadgets?"
Cedric, "Beyond gold, a higher level of [path]?"
The audience had different opinions about the four people's answers.
"What kind of secret magic is this? It won't be like the previous spells that I just couldn't learn no matter what I tried, right?"
"They've already become magical spirits, and they won't let you learn from them."
"What kind of permissions do you need? It's just one hour. We can't even download all the books and materials within the permitted time!"
"Maybe we won't even be able to bring the treasure book back!"
"The same principle applies to props."
"Even if we could bring it back, we wouldn't want it. We shouldn't touch any props that would make such a normal Professor Riddle commit murder and arson."
"The road can't be wrong, right? It's about immortality."
"Without the inheritance of heraldry, our world might not even be able to gather all the necessary materials."
"Don't even mention the omnipotence of magic; we don't have time to grind for that."
Riddle stroked his chin. "Either is fine."
The four people's requests were very simple for him.
He possessed countless secret magical abilities.
Higher privileges are just a thought.
His warehouse was already overflowing with rare and exotic items.
There are several paths that transcend gold, and some can even be tailor-made for the user.
However, when the time came, Harry, Phoebe, Krum changed their minds.
They all have their eyes on the Dark Magic Fairy's "path".
Props and treasure books are all external things, and secret magic is far too cheap compared to the [Path].
"We're the same as Cullen." X3
The three of them spoke almost simultaneously.
Cedric hesitated, "I've already chosen the Malfoy family's Golden Path [Dragon Bloodline]. Won't this cause a conflict?"
Riddle shook his head. "No need. [The Road] was my research topic when I graduated in 7th grade."
"This is simple for me: a combination of vampire and dragon."
"We only need to slightly modify and strengthen the somewhat weak [Vampire] part to maintain balance."
"Release your spirit."
"The spirit, that is, the magic itself, contains all the information of a fairy."
While Riddle was speaking, Madam Hooch had already left with third-year student Cedric.
Cedric unleashed the giant feathered serpent spirit.
"Guna La Goddess of Darkness — Slytherin —Information Spying."
Riddle chanted an incantation, and his right hand, adorned with a ring-shaped Magic Immortal Artifact, pressed lightly against the feathered serpent elf's head.
"Not bad. You have great potential. You're naturally suited for the path of the [Vampire Clan]. No wonder you're so talented in the Red Magic Fairy realm. Your blood..."
"In that case, why not try the combination of [Perfect Being]?"
Riddle murmured to himself, lost in thought.
Ten minutes passed.
"Done."
"Balala Energy - Ravenclaw - Knowledge Transfer!"
A flash of silver light disappeared into the top of the feathered serpent's head.
"I've slightly modified your heritage emblem; the one that governs magic is no longer the [Dragon], but the [Snake]."
"A snake that can absorb information from Fantastic Beasts through blood and evolve itself."
"It's more in line with your true nature."
"However, I suggest you don't rush to absorb it. Your blood already contains a lot of information that you need to digest."
"You can check the information I sent you later; it's all related to your [path]."
As he spoke, he pulled out his treasure book and started pointing and drawing.
With a 'ding', Cedric quickly looked at his treasure book and hurriedly checked the download box for the incoming email.
He had many questions he wanted to ask: what secrets his blood held, what the name of his "path" was, and so on.
But more than ten minutes had already passed, and he had to give his other partners time.
More importantly, he knew that the information in the email was very important.
The inherited emblem is merely a black box that allows one to transform oneself in a dream, its underlying principles unknown.
These materials are the original images used to transform oneself from nothing.
(Among the audience, many wizards, including Dumbledore, Voldemort, Grindelwald, were incredibly excited by this information; the ultimate crystallization of the Dark Magic Fairy from another world filled them with longing.)
"You go first." x2
Harry and Phoebe said to Krum.
Krum is the Champion with the highest contribution percentage to the mission besides Cedric. He came first, and both of them are convinced.
Krum didn't refuse, as refusing would be a waste of time.
He went straight up to Riddle.
"You don't need to worry, it won't take long to create a road tailored to the fairy herself."
"Cullen is chosen because his blood is too interesting, and we also need to consider the inheritance information of the [Dragon Bloodline]."
"Come, release your spirit."
To be on the safe side, Krum retracted the Magic Immortal Artifact that had transformed into another version of himself back into his body.
The two-in-one Golden Snitch spirit was released.
"Guna La Goddess of Darkness — Slytherin —Information Spying."
Riddle repeated his previous actions.
"Skilled at flying. Yearning for the sky. Let me think... [Ghost], could you consider not losing your human characteristics?"
Riddle seemed to have also discerned Krum's thoughts.
"That's no different from a living person [Ghost Immortal]. The [Path] of the Eastern [Jixia Academy] Demon Immortal, plus a bit of [Winged Immortal] combination."
Three minutes passed.
"Done."
Cedric and the others were all shocked. In just three minutes, they had created a "path" that surpassed even the gold standard.
Riddle noticed the expressions on their faces.
"Don't be surprised, I'm just standing on the shoulders of Giant."
"After all, I only pieced things together, rather than creating something entirely from scratch."
"Balala Energy - Ravenclaw - Legacy Crest!"
A Winky silver emblem disappeared into the Golden Snitch Spirit.
Having only learned about the Dark Magic Fairy's "Path" in his A History of Magic class, and unaware of the Dark Magic Fairy Hughes's theory of the "omnipotence of magic," Krum was somewhat puzzled by the principles of the "Path's" inherited emblems, wondering why he hadn't grasped them at all.
But he didn't ask any questions.
Instead, he walked to the side and, mimicking Cedric's actions, downloaded the information Riddle had sent him related to his "path".
"Come on," Phoebe said to Harry.
Seeing that there were still more than forty minutes left, Harry did not show any gentlemanly courtesy and went straight to where Krum had been standing.
Without waiting for Riddle's orders, he summoned his stag spirit.
The Winky silver stag, its hooves treading on black flames, stopped between Harry and Riddle.
"Guna La Goddess of Darkness — Slytherin —Information Spying."
Riddle repeated his previous actions.
"I already know you quite well. You absorbed Soul Fragment and are now filled with the energy of love, White Magic Fairy genius."
(Voldemort: It's mine!)
"However, it is truly an unprecedentedly pure soul. Excluding the [Vampire] and [Giant], the [Holy Spirit] from the [Ghost] is a very good choice."
"Almost no changes are needed, just a slight shift in the theme. The seven virtues—chastity, diligence, generosity, humility, gentleness, temperance, and tolerance—can be reduced and replaced with love itself."
"Done."
"Balala Energy - Ravenclaw - Legacy Crest!"
A Winky silver emblem disappeared into the stag spirit.
"So fast?" Cedric and the others were shocked.
This time it didn't even last three minutes.
"Daniel, all you need to do is fall in love and understand the true meaning of love."
"The Holy Spirit is a very special way."
"Rather than saying that the White Magic Fairy can learn, it's more accurate to say that the White Magic Fairy is more suited to it."
"Its simplified Golden Path, [Angel's Soul], is the Bu Er choice for many White Magic Fairy, Green Magic Fairy, and Blue Magic Fairy who want to retain their physical bodies."
Riddle closed the book in his hand.
Harry, having received the email, stepped aside and nodded as he downloaded it, "Yes."
"My turn." Phoebe swallowed hard and walked up to Riddle.
The fairy spirit flew out of their bodies and hovered between the two.
"That's the last one," Riddle sighed. "Today really put my brain to work."
He made a pressing motion with his right hand, Ouroboros Ring glowed. "Guna La Goddess of Darkness — Slytherin —Information Spying."
As the information flooded his mind, Riddle couldn't help but exclaim in surprise, "Interesting, interesting, really interesting."
Upon hearing the other person say "interesting" three times in a row, Phoebe unconsciously became nervous.
"You must have had the surname Dumbledore in your ancestors."
Riddle said that.
Clearly, he sensed Ariana's power within the Magic Immortal Artifact.
Because of the intertwining of souls, he made a misjudgment.
"Albus will be very happy."
(Dumbledore shuddered; he was really uncomfortable with Tom addressing him that way.)
(In Nurmengard, Grindelwald's face fell. "Is that Albus?")
"He was unwilling to date women, Aberforth's partner had reproductive barriers, and Ariana ascended to heaven early."
(Dumbledore's expression softened, and he, Aberforth, Grindelwald said almost simultaneously, "Great, at this time, my sister/she is still alive.")
"He thought that by his generation, Dumbledore in the Tree World would be extinct, just like Gryffindor Ravenclaw."
I must inform him in a little while.
"However, in that case, is the Phoenix's power the [Nirvana Envoy] of the [Vampire Clan], or the [Immortal Soul] of the [Ghost Clan]? Let me think."
As he pondered, his eyes caught sight of the fairy-like spirit of Phoebe, "A fairy-like spirit."
"I've got it! The niche path [Fairy] is also an option, or rather, a more suitable one. We just need to consider the combination of [Nirvana Envoy] and [Immortal Soul]."
Seeing that there was still plenty of time, Riddle quickly pieced together the [Path]. Phoebe hurriedly raised her hand and asked, "The niche path [Fairy]? It won't have the disadvantage of changing body size like [Giant], will it?"
The thought that she was only the size of a palm was hard for Phoebe to accept.
