*The-Chapter-Unnamed (II)* [Chapter 64]
🕑 Added 2023-02-01 18:08:54 +0000 UTCHarry groggily opened his eyes and memories immediately started to flow into his mind… Harry blinked as he remembered what happened last night, and from what he remembered, he never made it to his bed. He was in so much pain that he had passed out on the floor, but now he was resting on his bed… He quickly realized that Norton was probably responsible for his current predicament.
|Hadrian… Hadrian… Ah… Thank Merlin, you are alright. I thought I am going to lose you| Lily sobbed inside his mind and Harry started to feel really bad for making her cry even though it wasn’t exactly his fault.
|I am sorry, mom. I don’t exactly know what happened, but something happened during the Ritual| Harry said as he slowly sat up. He could already feel a lot of difference… His mind was much lighter and way more faster than before. He felt like his mind was also sharper than before, but he needed to test that out.
“Master Hadrian. You are finally awake? Ohh… Norton tried to wake you up, but Master Hadrian wouldn’t get up… Norton thought he lost you” Norton, who was sitting beside the bed, exclaimed while sobbing. Once again, Harry started to feel a bit guilty for making Norton worry even though it wasn’t his fault.
“I am alright, Norton… No need to cry. I am not going to leave you” Harry said as he extended his hand and started to pat Norton over his head. Norton smiled brightly and finally started to calm down… “You didn’t inform anyone, did you?” Harry asked when Norton finally calmed down.
“No, Norton wanted to, but Master Hadrian warned Norton against informing anyone even if something happened” Norton quickly shook his head in denial and Harry sighed in relief.
“Alright! You did well, Norton. Thanks for taking care of me” Harry said softly as he continued to pat Norton. The house elf started to cry again after hearing the praise… After a couple of seconds, Harry's stomach rumbled in hunger and Norton immediately started to wipe off his tears with his sleeves.
“Master Hadrian, Norton will quickly arrange something for you to eat!” Norton exclaimed, his voice filled with worry before he popped away, leaving Harry alone in his room to ponder what happened last night.
|You have no idea how worried I was… I thought. I thought I am going to lose you| Lily’s breath hitched and Harry felt a pang in his chest he never felt before… To be honest, he didn’t know what to do except for apologizing.
|...I am sorry, mom| Harry apologized from the deepest part of his heart.
|No. No. It wasn’t your fault, Hadrian. You shouldn't apologize when it wasn’t your fault in the first place| Lily sniffed loudly while wiping off her tears with her hands. |I am simply glad that you are alright| Lily chuckled softly as she continued to wipe off her tears. |So, what happened?| Lily asked warily after she finally calmed down.
|I don't know what happened, but I remember leaking Magic when my Magical Core started to crack… That is the last thing I remember| Harry recalled as he started to inspect himself, but moments later, his eyes grew wide in surprise… He was worrying over the fact that now his Magic was probably crippled, but he was proven wrong when he inspected his Magical Core…
Now, he could no longer call his Magical Core a Magical Core… Yeah, it might sound weird, but it was true. With a gobsmacked look on his face, he started to inspect the thing which was now occupying the place of his Magical Core… It felt like a furnace, a brightly burning furnace. No… He was wrong. It wasn't a furnace… It was much more than that.
It felt like a Sun. Yes… That was the closest word he was able to find. The brightly burning Sun, which was now occupying the place of his Magical Core, was producing immense amounts of Magic. He has never felt so much power in his life… Is this how much much raw power Grindelwald, Dumbledore and Voldemort had in their command? No… Harry quickly shook his head. That wasn't right…
The Crystallized Magical Core State is the strongest Magical Core state, but even the Crystallized Magical Core shouldn't be this powerful, and whatever his Magical Core has become, it was producing Magic on its own and it was steadily supplying power to his body and his body was brimming with Magic. He could also feel his body becoming stronger with each passing moment due to the steady power supply from the Sun.
No, Harry quickly shook his head. Whatever his Magical Core has turned into, it was much better than the Crystallized Magical Core and the Crystallized Magical Core wasn't known to produce its own energy like his Sun was doing… Fuck that!! How was he even inspecting his Magical Core without his Wand in the first place?
Harry quickly realized that it wasn't that simple… There was a lot more going on with him. It wasn't just his Magical Core. He realized that he could easily recall everything perfectly he has experienced in his life… He could even perfectly recall all of his toddler memories when his mom and dad were still alive. How was that even possible??
His Occlumency might have been quite impressive, but what he was experiencing was something more… It was like he has gained perfect memory or something along those lines and he already knew that his mind was much sharper than before… No. That wasn't right. Calling his mind sharper than before would be severely underplaying his improvements. If he was better than average before then now he was easily a genius.
Yes, that was right… Harry concluded that something other than the Ritual has happened to him. It was simply impossible for him to gain so much from the Ritual… Yes, the Ritual was probably responsible for triggering whatever happened to him. He realized that he needed to find out what happened to him, but at the same time, he also needed to explore his new Powers…
|Hadrian, what happened? Talk to me son| Lily called out worriedly, breaking Harry out of his mental rush.
|Yeah, mom. I am alright. In fact, I am feeling way better than I have ever felt before. Let me tell you about all the changes…| Harry trailed off and with that, he started to tell her about all the changes in his body.
By the time he finished telling her about all the changes, Lily was simply left stumped… It took her a couple of minutes to finally regain her bearings, and when she finally regained her bearings, she started to grin like a loon. She already knew her Hadrian was special and this was simply proof that she was right… Lily didn't know why or what happened, but she was feeling extremely giddy for her son.
|Hadrian, I don't know what to say… I am so proud of you, my son| Lily breathed out, her voice brimming with pride.
|I also don't know what to say except for the fact that I need a shower before doing anything else| Harry muttered dryly as he removed the duvet only to realize that he wasn't wearing anything… Apparently, never bothered to dress him up and when he realized that once again his mom could see him in all of his glory, he started to get a hard-on. He groaned and climbed off his bed when he noticed that his Wand was resting on his desk, instead of his nightstand.
With the thought of getting some clothes inside his mind, he started to make his way toward the desk, but he froze when he heard the shuffling of clothes on his body… He slowly looked down and realized that he was dressed in some casual clothes.
|Wh-what? How?| Lily stammered out in complete bewilderment. She had been intently watching his manhood with hunger and need inside her mind, but all of a sudden his body was covered in clothes, which seemed to have appeared out of thin air… No… The clothes didn't appear out of thin air, Hadrian Conjured them. |Hadrian, you Conjured them. Try to cast a Spell| Lily requested giddily, completely forgetting about the fact that she was watching her own son's manhood with hunger and need.
|Alright| Harry agreed as he also realized that he Conjured the clothes on his body when he recalled his memories.
Harry raised his hand and pointed it at the wall and thought about casting the Stunning Charm. A red beam came out of his palm and splashed against the wall harmlessly… Harry clutched his hand and whooped in joy. He could cast Wandless Magic… He could cast fucking Wandlessly!! Harry didn't know what to say or how to react… He realized that exploring all of his improvements was of utmost priority…
So, without wasting any more time, he rushed into the bathroom and vanished his clothes with a simple gesture of his hand… While barely holding himself back from cackling in mad glee, he stepped under the shower and turned on the water… His stomach rumbled again, reminding him of his hunger.
Harry decided that as soon as was done filling his stomach with food, he would start exploring his newly acquired powers… He needed to know his limits so that he could learn how to hold back all over again… After all, he wasn't planning to reveal his improvements to the rest of the World any time soon, especially when he knew the importance of keeping his cards close to his chest…
=====================
For those who are wondering what happened to Harry/Hadrian, he finally awakened his X-Gene, which is basically the Essence of Archmage.
Now, I am sure some of you are already wondering what is this Essence of Archmage… The following points are basically what the Essence of Archmage is…
1- Perfect memory with infinite storage
2- Beyond genius-level intellect
3- Capacity to learn any ‘magic’ even unique ones upon seeing it once or understanding enough about it. This also includes things like Ki, Chakra, soul power, etc.
4- Possess a supernatural reactor that can adapt to any supernatural energy to fuel spells, enchantments, powers, etc. this reactor provides a steady supply of power that will grow over time, right now you could use high consumption abilities with wild abandon and still not make much of a dent after a few hours.
5- Can teach others systems even if they previously lacked the capacity.
6- Manipulate entire systems or combine them with experimentation.
7- Are capable of casting any spell as long as you have the energy not requiring any extra element like a focus or materials. The time required to cast if any remains, however.
If you are still confused about the Essence of Archmage, then you can post paragraph comments here or you could reach out to me on my Discord Server… I hope you guys like the power-up…

No it won't... His Magical Core transformered into the Reactor, so Mutant supressing means shouldn't affect his Magic in the slightest, but the same can't be said about the other aspects of his powers. For example his intelligence or perfect memory

Things are going to get extra interesting if he comes in contact with Fawkes or Cosmic energy, presumably abilities that nullify the xgene would now effect him as well though and cut off all his magical abilities, I'm hoping they don't though.
Then I am glad

Loving the story
