Previously, Maple thought of taking direct action to severely damage Voldemort's resurrection possibility… without the "Bone of the Father" in the ritual, even if Voldemort was still resurrected, it would not be as perfect.
However, as his research on spirituality deepened and as he occasionally discussed it with Dumbledore, he began to grasp a portion of the truth behind the so-called "prophecy."
Every person's destiny, like a drop of water on earth, is disrupted and intertwined with the vast world in a complex and chaotic way.
As for the supposed inevitability of fate, it is like a drop of water that, regardless of the changes it undergoes, will eventually merge into the ocean and mingle with the surrounding waters.
No matter how short the interaction was, or how different the water droplet's journey after the separation, this encounter was also an "inevitable" on a grander scale.
As for prophecy, it was like a fish that suddenly jumped out of the water and glimpsed a corner of this encounter and produced a spiritual resonance.
The prophets had an incomplete perspective, so they have various interpretations of this encounter. However, fallacy in interpretation could not affect the corner of the truth.
"The one powerful enough to defeat Lord Voldemort would be born to those who have "thrice defied him", born as the seventh month dies, and would be marked by Voldemort as his equal. The "chosen one" would also possess a power the Dark Lord doesn't have; "either must die at the hand of the other, for neither can live while the other survives."
This was the prophecy Trelawney gave after she opened her "third eye". To a certain extent it was also a spiritual reminder on the trajectory of destiny. It was precisely because Maple understood the power of spirituality that he did not dare to cause major interference but chose to be like Dumbledore, to guide the intersection of fate to his own favorable direction so as to avoid the backlash from the flow of events.
"Then just agree first, I think, one year later I would be going to Hogwarts unless there is another breakthrough in magic. The issue of identity will be difficult to deal with… But if I can be promoted to sequence 7, the middle of the sequence, the changes in spirituality may allow me to communicate with the essence on a limited basis. By then, I would be able to obtain a precious opportunity… and all the existing problems could be easily solved."
With this in mind, Maple raised his head to look at the ceiling, seemingly gazing at the clusters of essence attached to the world's outer wall…that was the source of all miracles.
"Heizi! I will leave this letter with you, remember to give it to the owl when it comes again tomorrow."
After writing down a reply, Maple signed his name "Qin Feng", and waved his wand. The envelope folded by itself, fluttered out of the alchemy room and landed next to Heizi's nest.
"Snort!"
Accustomed to the work of sending and receiving letters every morning, Heizi merely snorted slightly and blew out sporadic sparks to show that it understood.
The news of "Qin Feng" taking office as the Director of the Legal Enforcement Department in the Ministry of Magic aroused heated discussions among many wizards, who speculated what this rising soul wizard would do.
However, due to the need to role-digest [Dark Priest], many wizards were surprised to find that the new director "Qin Feng" to be extremely low-key, almost invisible.
Even if occasionally this handsome mature wizard could be seen in the office, he could only be seen immersed in the accumulated official documents. Even when reporting important matters on normal days, his deputies were authorized to go directly to his wooden cabin and inform him.
The scheduling of personnel, resource allocation, changes in regulations, all were handled extremely well by this new director. No one could find any major faults; this allowed the Executive transition period to be very stable. This was a sharp contrast with the chaos in the rest of the Ministry of Magic.
Ordinary employees might not notice these subtle and seamless changes, but for elite Aurors like Moody, these changes couldn't escape their keen senses. However, these astute individuals often chose to remain silent, as if they had an unspoken understanding with Maple. They quietly cooperated with the coordination procedures of the internal structures within the department..
Of course, to be able to smoothly control the department was also due to the unintentional "Nurturing of Hope" over the past few years. He was no longer an unknown wizard, but a great soul wizard who participated in the invention of [Soul Healing Spell] …This well-known strength and reputation became his greatest weapon in reining the department.
This was probably why Dumbledore refused to be the Minister of Magic, because no matter what he wanted to do could be achieved easily, just as he, himself said…
A wizard like me is safer at school.
With Maple's strong rationality, he was also very clear, in the world of Beyonders, knowledge and power were the foundation, authority was only a convenience to help towards the truth.
Time passed and as expected by Maple, holding the position of a director did not promote the digestion of [Dark Priest], although occasionally making decisions that followed one's heart did help, but it was still not as good as the meditation he did in his cabin.
…
In the blink of an eye, it was now the end of May 1991, only two months left before Maple entered school, but he could almost feel the complete digestion of Dark Priest potion, only a single thread left.
"Still a little short of the mark, once I have finished modifying the Sequence 7 [Murderer] potion formula, it should be completely digested."
In May, the climate in the UK was not considered hot. Maple took a nap on the grass in front of his cabin while enjoying the fresh cold wind blowing on his face. The warm sunshine shone occasionally through the thick clouds, providing sufficient warmth for Maple not to cast another warming spell on himself.
"However, this name… 'Murderer'? Very subtle, at least I already guessed that it would need battle and fresh blood. But let's wait until I have been promoted, I should be able to leverage a bit of power from the essence, to complete a short trip to another world, to find a suitable world."
Maple thought about the information revealed by sequence 7 while stroking "Heizi" who had grown to his waist… well, not bad, the hair is soft, and the body is warm due to the Fiendfyre, very warm to touch. If this growth rate continued, maybe it could be ridden in a few years.
"Snort!"
"Heizi" rubbed his head on Maple's hand while releasing a snort. Under Maple's care, it was not as skinny as an ordinary Thestral. On the contrary, the Fiendfyre forged Heizi's body to be very strong and muscular, it even felt like a "Death Pegasus."
"?"
Suddenly Heizi stopped moving, as if feeling some kind of fluctuations, and raised its head towards the wilderness.
"Heizi, what's wrong?"
Maple, noticing Heizi's abnormality, immediately stood up, smoothly wore his disguise mask and also took out his wand. As soon as he finished this action, his spirit was also touched…
It seemed like something was about to happen, it was not a threat to him, but it was nearby.
In less than a second, Maple felt a violent magic fluctuation spreading from a distance.
"This frequency…is it an accident in a magical experiment?"
In this world, Maple had practically grown up accompanied by magical riots, towards this kind of turmoil, he was very familiar.
"Strange, I have not heard of a wizard's laboratory nearby? Heizi, follow me to take a look."
Finished speaking, Maple immediately apparated towards the source of violent fluctuation.
"Neigh…!"
Following closely behind Maple, Heizi stepped forward with his front hooves, the properties of Fiendfyre allowed him to use a teleportation method similar to apparition, and disappeared in a burst of black flame.
