The Name That Shouldn't Exist
Harry's fingers hovered over the name on the ancient page.
Mordred.
The ink shimmered unnaturally, as if the word itself fought to remain visible.
His Gamer System had never reacted like this before.
WARNING! UNKNOWN ENTITY DETECTED.
• The name you have read has been removed from time itself.
• The Lords of Magic erased it for a reason.
• Proceed with extreme caution.
Harry exhaled slowly, keeping his mind calm.
If the Lords of Magic erased Mordred's existence, that meant one thing:
They were afraid of them.
And that meant Mordred wasn't just a name—it was a key to something bigger.
The Search for the Truth
Harry had spent years researching history in his past life. He knew the usual tales—Arthurian legends, Merlin's rise, and how magic shaped the early world.
But Mordred?
Every version of history painted them as a villain, a traitor, the one who brought down Camelot.
But if that were true, why would wizards erase them?
Merlin was considered the greatest sorcerer of all time—his legend was preserved.
But Mordred?
Erased.
That meant they were more than a legend. They were a threat.
Harry needed more information.
He closed the journal and stood up. There was only one person who might have answers.
A Meeting in the Dark
It was late when Harry found his mother in the study, reading a letter with a furrowed brow.
He stepped forward, placing the journal on the desk.
"I need to know about Mordred."
Lily froze.
Her fingers tightened around the parchment in her hand, and for the first time, Harry saw something in her expression he hadn't expected.
Not anger.
Not frustration.
Fear.
She set the letter down slowly. "Where did you find that name?"
Harry tapped the journal. "Here. It was almost invisible, but my magic made it reappear."
Lily let out a slow breath, rubbing her temples. "Harry… this isn't something you should be looking into."
"That's what makes me want to look into it more."
His mother hesitated, then sighed. "Alright. But this doesn't leave this room."
Harry nodded, his heart pounding.
Lily flicked her fingers, casting a privacy ward around them before speaking again.
"Everything you know about Mordred is a lie," she said simply.
Harry listened carefully.
"History calls them a traitor, a destroyer. But the truth is, Mordred was a sorcerer beyond anything the world had ever seen. They weren't just Arthur's rival—they were the last true Archmage."
Harry's eyes widened.
"Mordred was an Archmage?"
Lily nodded. "The last of their kind. And the most powerful. Even more than Merlin."
That shook Harry to his core.
Merlin was worshiped as a god of magic. But someone stronger than him had existed?
And the world erased them?
"Why?" Harry pressed. "What did they do?"
Lily's lips tightened.
"They didn't fall in battle, Harry. They were betrayed. By Merlin himself."
The Betrayal of Mordred
Lily reached into her desk, pulling out an ancient-looking parchment.
It was tattered, edges burned, but the words on it glowed faintly.
"This is one of the only surviving records," she murmured, passing it to him.
Harry read:
The Council has spoken. The Balance must be maintained. The child of magic has grown too strong.
Merlin has given the order.
Mordred will be erased.
Harry's stomach twisted.
The Council of Magic had ordered Mordred's destruction—and Merlin agreed.
"Why?" he asked.
Lily leaned back in her chair, eyes dark. "Because Mordred found something they weren't supposed to. Something that shattered the balance of power in the magical world."
Harry's pulse quickened.
"What did they find?"
His mother hesitated. Then, quietly:
"The truth about where magic comes from."
A chill ran down Harry's spine.
The Lords of Magic
Harry absorbed every word.
The world wasn't what it seemed.
The Lords of Magic weren't just powerful wizards—they were something more ancient, more controlling.
They had spent centuries deciding who got to wield true magic and who didn't.
And when Mordred got too close to the truth, they were erased from history.
Harry's mind raced.
If Mordred was the last true Archmage… then what did that mean for him?
His Gamer System had classified him as an Archmage's Heir.
Did that mean…
I'm following the same path?
Harry's hands tightened into fists.
This wasn't just about lost history anymore.
This was about power.
The kind of power that could change the world.
His Gamer System pinged with an alert.

Harry took a deep breath, feeling the energy hum beneath his skin.

But he knew one thing.
He wasn't stopping now.
