In one of Kamar-Taj's great halls, Harry told the Supreme Mage about how he had traveled back to the Wizarding World two days ago, along with the spells and related magical knowledge from that world.

The Supreme Mage showed no surprise. Harry realized that his teacher had long anticipated this happening, and he asked, "Teacher, you knew all along?"

Setting her teacup back on the table, the Supreme Mage confirmed Harry's guess:

"That's right. Since you were able to appear in this world, it was only natural that you might return to your original world.

Besides, your fate cannot be observed, and there is no trace of you in the timeline. I had long expected this day to come."

"Then do you think I did the right thing, Teacher?" Harry was a little nervous. "I developed lenders in the Wizarding World, trying to change the Wizarding World's backward policies and strengthen it against any Dimensional Demons that might appear in the future."

Noticing her disciple's anxiety, the Supreme Mage looked kindly at Harry and calmly refilled his tea.

Influenced by the Supreme Mage, Harry gradually calmed down as well, no longer so desperate for his teacher's approval.

The Supreme Mage nodded, her voice still gentle and reassuring, carrying a warmth far beyond Coulson's:

"You did nothing wrong, Harry. Although the Wizarding World has not yet drawn the attention of Dimensional Demons, given the uniqueness of that world, it is only a matter of time.

Besides, even without Dimensional Demons, such rotten policies should be abolished. Even wizards need to keep progressing; they cannot remain stuck in their ways."

With his teacher's approval, Harry finally relaxed completely.

Even though he believed he had done nothing wrong, he was still only eighteen years old and could have reached the wrong conclusion.

Now that his teacher, who had lived for more than a thousand years, had affirmed him, Harry could carry out the plans that followed without hesitation.

Just as his teacher had said, even without Dimensional Demons, the decaying Wizarding World needed to change!

Having settled on his future course of action, Harry asked his teacher again, "Teacher, was the Wizarding World's magic of any help to you?"

The reason he had memorized so much knowledge was not merely to improve himself. He also wanted to use the Wizarding World's knowledge to help the Supreme Mage.

After a thousand years of continuous study, his teacher had mastered all of Kamar-Taj's magic and had dabbled somewhat in the magic of other dimensions.

If he was right, it would be difficult for his teacher's strength to improve any further. But the Wizarding World's magic might very well help her break through that bottleneck.

After all, the Wizarding World's magical knowledge was not only new, but also exceptionally unique. From the very beginning of study, it involved rules.

To Harry's disappointment, the Supreme Mage shook her head:

"The Wizarding World's magic is very special. It exists entirely on the basis of their unique magical power, which resembles weakened Chaos Magic. Without Chaos Magic, others cannot use the Wizarding World's magic.

"But don't be disappointed. Even if this knowledge cannot help me break through my limits, it can still give me many inspirations and allow me to develop other magic.

"That magic will be of tremendous help to you. Don't forget that your teacher has long wanted to retire. The faster your strength grows, the sooner your teacher can retire."

Harry nodded vigorously. "I'll work hard and let you retire as soon as possible, Teacher!"

Leaving Kamar-Taj, Harry returned to his bedroom.

Though he did not know what kind of magic his teacher would invent, there was no doubt it would be of great help to him.

After all, no one wanted to retire more than his teacher!

The next day, because the Supreme Mage had returned, Harry brought Tony to Kamar-Taj and asked whether Tony could become a mage.

To Harry's surprise, the Supreme Mage told him that in a certain Parallel Universe, there was a Tony the Supreme Mage.

Not only did Tony possess magical talent, it was exceptionally outstanding.

Seeing Tony's smug expression, Harry was rather speechless.

So the guy had actually been right? Were geniuses geniuses in every field?

Harry felt that perhaps he should study science. Given his extraordinary magical talent, he would surely be an unprecedented genius in the scientific field as well.

An hour later, Harry put down the book on relativity in his hands.

What nonsense about geniuses being geniuses in every field!

Although he could understand those papers, fully comprehending them was far too difficult. It was nothing like magic, where he only needed to tell Chaos Magic what he wanted.

Harry decided that technology was not for him. Understanding a little was enough; he still preferred omnipotent magic!

Tony was delighted to hear the news. With an exaggerated expression, he declared that not everyone was Tony Stark—great Tony was an all-around genius.

Seeing Tony's punchable face, if not for that 5% stake, Harry's fist would have somehow found its way onto Tony's face long ago.

Before leaving, Tony told Harry that he had decided to design a suit of armor combining technology and magic. Once it was complete, he would give Harry one.

Only then did Harry withdraw the fist that had been about to get intimately acquainted with Tony's face, replacing it with a hard pat on his shoulder. "Mr. Stark, you were right. You really are a one-of-a-kind genius!"

After suddenly traveling between worlds and becoming one of the wealthiest people alive by saving Tony Stark, Harry finally returned to his daily routine.

He went to school every day, traveled to Kamar-Taj to study magic, researched new Chaos Magic with the Supreme Mage, and occasionally communicated with Tony Stark to answer his questions about magic.

That was right. The Supreme Mage had entrusted Tony's instruction to him. For the time being, he was Tony's mage instructor, much like Wong had once been his.

On the way home from school that day, plane tree leaves drifted continuously down and carpeted the ground. Harry was still with Gwen and Peter.

Gwen studied Harry curiously. "Harry, have you heard the latest rumor?"

"What rumor?"

"Someone said you became a new shareholder of Stark Industries and hold quite a few shares."

"This wasn't a rumor. It was true. If you wanted an internship at Stark Industries, I might be able to help."

"Oh my God, I can't believe it." Gwen covered her mouth, looking adorably shocked. "I never thought my good friend would become a millionaire. Don't forget to treat me to a big meal!"

"Of course. How about tomorrow? I remember a pretty good place."

Gwen's face flushed slightly, but she agreed without hesitation. "Of course. I don't have anything else planned for tomorrow."

Gwen promptly tossed aside her plan to visit the Captain America Museum with her father the next day.

At the familiar intersection, Gwen reluctantly parted ways with Harry.

After Gwen left, Peter suddenly grinned wickedly. "Harry, Gwen's a really great girl. She likes you."
