Chapter 144: 144. Queen Is Here

"You know about the land, right? Now hear about my new company, hehe..." Magnus told Ted about everything that happened at the pub today. The more Ted listened the more his brows rose.

This was a big deal, Magnus now didn't just have an army, but also a company that could ignore the need for heavy machinery. They could just use magic to erect structures in days when it should have taken them weeks or months. The finer tasks can be done by muggles and they take the least time.

"But Ted, we will need to create a department solely responsible for making sure the Statute of Secrecy isn't broken. We will create fake documentaries about how much hard work went into our various projects. Then when we are near completion we will air them on BBC or other infotainment channels. Nobody will doubt us then." He suggested. It was a great idea. This way, even if people will feel that such fast construction was crazy, they would accept it. Because if it's on T.V., then it must be something very amazing.

Ted affirmed, "That's a great idea. When is the construction going to start?"

"As soon as I get a letter from the Queen... Ah, talk about the devil." He noticed an owl flying outside his window. The queen must have bought an owl after meeting Magnus.

He took the letter and let the owl go away, of course, after some treats.

He read it carefully. The beginning was the usual royal talk and he slipped to the main part.

[Letter]

I talked about this with Prime Minister Heath. It is a very large area of land so a nod from various ministries would be needed.

Worry not, as the Prime Minister knows about you. I must say, all those who know about your inevitable taking of the throne are very excited. The name of King Arthur Pendragon is still so much loved. Even more, since I pushed a lot of historians to publish books about the evidence that King Arthur was real. A new television series will also air on the BBC soon.

Coming back to the topic. I and the Prime Minister agree that this project of yours will be a great boon to the country. And we have no choice but to accept because one way or another, you will do what you want.

Send a full plan for the development of the hospital campus. Ministries will need to see it before signing it. If you can send it today, I can get the nod from ministries in 2 days.

Also, I will visit you in a few days. It will be an official visit. Since you have already started work from your side of recreation false memories, I must do so too. The world needs to see my meetings as a mystery. So that later when I announce Adam's return, the world will think I convinced him to return.

See you in a few days,

Elizabeth,

[Letter End]

Magnus folded it and burned it. "Hmm, it seems she has accepted everything and is really helping us now."

"But always be careful Magnus," Ted advised him.

"Of course, I will never trust her so easily. At least not yet. Not until I sit on the throne. I will give you the development plans and get them to reach various concerned ministries." He got back to work.

...

1 Month Later,

10 August 1972

Magnus spent his time focused on studying, training and working on his various projects.

There were a lot of things happening at the same time. The book about Magnus was not just a success on a national level. It had spread everywhere, in every country.

The publisher Rita had hired was translating it into many different regional languages. It had become famous in the whole of Europe and North America. In a few large Asian countries too, as they were interested in Merlin.

This, in return, increased Magnus' popularity. Those who didn't even know about him started idolising him. Even though some things in the book were overly exaggerated, most believed it because the name Merlin was attached.

Magnus had also talked and directed work to Edgar and other sub-leaders. His new company, Emrys Construction, was formed. The land was also passed by the appropriate Ministry and got sold to Magnus. Of course, with a discount. Not many complained as a big hospital and medical college were going to be made. The government was also known to provide subsidies on such projects. It would also increase the land value of the land surrounding the hospital, which would be good for the city.

Immediately, tall boundary walls were erected with magic around the whole property. There wasn't going to be just 1 single building for all kinds of medical services.

Various buildings will be constructed around the campus, each specialising in one field. For example, Cardiology and Vascular Related treatment will have a whole building. Brain-related treatment will have another. This way, there were going to be at least 5 different buildings dedicated to medical health.

Then, there was going to be a big college and a research centre. Other than that, there will be parks, retirement homes, recreational spas and other stuff. The whole campus will have its own transit system to take people from one place to another.

[A/N: There will be Illustrations for each building when they are completely built.]

The construction started right away, under a lot of charms that hid magic use. Private security was hired to secure the main borders of the whole property. But even they were banned from entering.

Another thing that happened was that Grace had now turned into a celebrity, giving interviews left and right. She was also featured in some women's magazines, who were calling her an ideal role model for a strong independent woman, who not only served the country by being an army doctor but also now the world with this new invention. Of course, how could Magnus' name not be thrown there?

Grace usually gets awkward during interviews and her best way to keep talking is to talk about her son. So, now they were being called a miracle family, as people found out about Magnus' George Cross. and his bravery during that accident.

Maybe it was also the push from the Crown and Prime Minister's office that Grace was now being promoted a lot more than should have. It was an image-building campaign going on. The same would happen when Adam appears in the limelight.

But, today was the day Queen Elizabeth was going to be coming to visit them. It was an official visit and the media would know about it. But many would simply think she came to meet Grace. But, when she visits again the next time, they will start gossiping.

...

"Ah, what is this book? Sir Gawain and the Green Knight?" Arthur asked Magnus as they were in the big library of their house.

Magnus looked at the book Arthur was pointing to. It was an old-looking book and had no author's name. Even the English written in it was very old.

"This? I think mum told me about this story once. Ah, isn't this Sir Gawain from your round table?" Magnus asked.

"Yes, that's exactly why I'm asking this. Poor fellow was the youngest knight. This Green Knight was actually nothing but a bored forest elf, they are extinct now. The whole ordeal was so embarrassing for Sir Gawain that he'd get angry whenever someone mentioned it. But, he was indeed very brave.

"Strange, someone wrote this book." Arthur iterated about his old life.

Magnus nodded, "It was never found out who wrote this, but it is a very famous literature."

"Poor Sir Gawain, his secrets are known around the world now... haha..." Arthur laughed.

"Stop messing around now and help me write the book." Magnus scolded him. He was currently working to write a small book that could provide the best evidence that Arthur was real.

"Where were you buried?" Magnus asked.

"We were not, we were burned to ashes, so nothing remains that can connect to us. There were far too many crazy dark wizards during those days, so it was never wise to leave behind your body. Merlin and I had decided this a long time before our death." Arthur revealed.

Magnus's shoulders slumped, "Then how do you think I can prove to the world that you were real?"

Arthur thought for a while, "Hmm... That's not really that hard. You have my armour in Camelot, I've also written some books in my time. Maybe showcase them to the world? Someone should be able to date them back to the era I used to live in."

"And what do you think will be the reason there was no Pendragon taking the throne after your death?" Magnus asked.

"You can say that the next Pendragon in line was too young, but the regent that was supposed to rule until the little Pendragon turned old got greedy and took the throne. Since then, the throne has been passed on to many different families, settling with what we have now. Not just that, you can also blame this regent for why there was no mention of me in history books because he tried to hide all evidence of his forceful take over of the throne." Arthur suggested.

"Hard to swallow, but possible," Magnus muttered.

He was busy when Grace's loud call came. "MAGNUS, COME HERE. OLD QUEEN IS HERE"

Magnus closed the notebook and sighed, "Let's go, Arthur. Let's greet granny Liz."

"Nah, not interested in saggy sacks. You go. I'll go to Merlin and annoy the hell out of him." Arthur shrugged and vanished from the portrait.

Chapter 145: 145. Billion Dollar Creation

A large Rolls Royce rolled in from the main entrance of the estate. Her security stayed outside the gates, except for a selected few, nobody was allowed to enter. But, whoever entered, was under strict surveillance by Abe and George.

Magnus came out running to the entrance, although he did not need to greet her like this, he still needed to act as a simple boy for now.

Soon, the queen got out of her car, whose door was opened by her guard. Magnus, while looking at her, felt only one thing. WEAK.

Yes, she was rich and the monarch, but personally she was so weak. He wondered if she could even lift an assault rifle and fire continuously a full round. Let alone lifting his twin swords Hope and Despair. Anybody could bring this monarch down if one wanted to. Without her guards, she would be nothing.

Truly, the monarchy had degraded from old times. Back in Arthur's time, kings were supposed to be warriors, and if you were not, then you were either killed in combat or poisoned, if none of these, they'd die of some disease due to their frail pampered bodies.

But again, he understood why she was like this. Muggle world for the most part was peaceful and the rich didn't need to fight in the wars they funded. While in the Wizarding World, it didn't matter how rich you were, you may have to fight for survival.

She got out of the car and walked up to Grace. The casual greeting came. There were no cameras so there was no need to be too formal.

"Welcome, please come in." Grace led her inside.

But, when some guards also decided to enter, Magnus stopped them, "Not you. You stay at the door."

"We must follow her Majesty wherever she goes." They told him.

Magnus didn't act cocky with them, they were just working. "Well, first of all, look at your shoes. It was raining this morning and you will dirty my floor. And she will also want you to stay here, you can ask the queen."

Queen Elizabeth turned around and nodded at the bodyguards. With this, the matter was settled.

Once Magnus was gone, the three guards in suits started talking to each other.

Guard 1: Hmph, what a cocky kid.

Guard 2: Not really. Don't you recognise him? He won a George Cross at 9 and even owns his own company right now. What were you doing at 9?

Guard 3: *Whistle* Probably eating sand and dreaming of infinite chocolates.

Guard 1: I hope my son is able to achieve even 1 per cent of what he did.

Guard 3: His father must have hit the jackpot of the lifetime, to not only marry such an intelligent beauty but also have such a son. Life is unfair.

Guard 2: Indeed... AH!"

*BOP* *BOP* *PA*

All of a sudden, three large blobs of bird poop fell on their heads. While on the terrace, Abe and George laughed.

"Huh, serves them right, talking bad about Mister Adam and Lady Grace," Abe scoffed.

George nodded and turned to Summer who was flying, "Yes, Good job, Summer. Come, I got special treats for you."

...

Inside the house,

They drank tea and just talked about what their plans were going to be. By the end of this year, Adam was going to be announced. It was important that they start integrating Magnus into the royal circle, so that when the time comes, nobody can say anything against him.

"I just met Lord Mountbatten a few days ago, it's amazing how he acted when I talked to him about you, Grace. He actually referred to you as Lady Pendragon." Queen Elizabeth revealed.

Grace felt goosebumps on herself when she heard that. Lady Pendragon sounded so badass.

"You too, Magnus. As he is the maternal uncle of my husband, he should have known that I and Adam are not related. But he whispered in my ear, asking me how Adam and you are. What did you do to them? How are they acting as if everything is normal?" She asked in disbelief.

Magnus proudly lifted his chin, "Hehe, that's magic, granny. Just wait a few more months, soon all high nobles will recognise mum and dad."

What she didn't know was that this job was too damn hard. Obliviating was very easy, planting memory was a hellish task. If you were not careful, you could end up harming someone. Also, this magic was only working on muggles, if it were some wizard, they would have found out about it.

"That would be wonderful. I have already initiated collecting all the documents necessary for you to take the throne. You will have to remember a lot of names of people, organisations, locations and countries. I have brought you a booklet." She said and handed it to him.

Surprisingly, when Magnus read the name on the book, he chuckled, "Haha, did you name it?"

She denied, "No, dear. It's been called 'A Royal Headache' for the past 2 generations now." She revealed, making Magnus laugh.

He took the booklet and just turned its pages one after another. And he got a migraine from it. He had thought that there wouldn't be much because the booklet was small and thin. Now he knew why, because the text on the pages was so small, there were thousands of names on each page.

His face sweated, "Eh... I will read at night."

"Haha... I had the same reaction. At least you are getting time to read them. I didn't, I had to memorise names while I was getting ready to give a speech about my eventual coronation.

"Let's leave this discussion. I am so proud of you, Grace. You really are a role model for everyone. Even in the darkest times of our country since the war, there are people who are lifting the country's hope.

"So many economists are so fast to declare that 70s will be the dark ages of modern Britain. I refuse to believe that. A country that has such inventions taking place and large scale infrastructure constructions taking place can not be in dark ages." She said.

Magnus was worried that she might slip up the news about the hospital, but thankfully she didn't. He had told her to keep it a secret in a letter.

Their talks continued till noon. She was a busy woman and had a lot of parties to attend. It did sound less like work but that was the current job of the queen of one of the oldest monarchies in the world.

When it came to leaving, she gave them a few gifts. They were mainly various kinds of expensive teabags.

"Pheew... She's trying hard to mingle with us." Grace muttered when the queen left.

"Yes, I never imagined in my life I'd even meet the Queen... Let alone become her son. Life sure has weird twists and turns." Adam sighed.

Magnus rolled his eyes, "Yeah, it sure does. I didn't even know about Arthur or Merlin, yet I'm their inheritor now."

"And me too... Never had I thought I'd be friends with the biggest greedy narcissist in the world. Life sure is strange." Ragnar added with an exaggerated head shake. He was in his lab all this time, saying that he couldn't care less about a muggle Queen.

Hearing Ragnar, Magnus angrily chased him, "Really? Should I also start talking about those magazines now?"

Ragnar's face lost its colour and he jumped at Magnus to hold his mouth. He whispered in his ears. "Don't, Mag. These things shouldn't come out. These are the boy's secrets."

"Really? How convenient for you. MUMMY... DO YOU KNO..." Magnus started shouting.

Ragnar, seeing no choice, took out a potion bottle and poured its contents into Magnus' mouth.

Shocked, Magnus gulped. "What the... Agdj jhgf idyy iehdh?"

"Heh, this is tongue twister potion. Now you will speak gibberish for the next hour. Enjoy." Ragnar let Magnus go now.

"FHFH SHDHU FUUUU..."

It was obvious that Magnus was cursing, but Ragnar just laughed at him and left.

...

Laughter, fun, studies and hard work filled Magnus' home for the coming days. His holidays were limited to begin with and his time to return to his school was nearing.

But the one running out of time was Adam, as when Ragnar leaves, his research would also come to a halt. He only needed some help with the battery, everything else would be achievable by himself.

Ragnar had been helping him create a working and economically viable Lithium-ion battery.

He was also working very hard to help Adam. By now, he had understood what Adam needed. Although he didn't understand much about the electrons stuff. All he knew was the material he needed to create.

He was just reading different research papers from various institutes around the world. He didn't understand much. He's just read their names and if interested would read further.

"Hmm? Solid-State Battery? What's this? Solid Electrolyte? This is pretty similar to what I'm making, but safer. Argh... this is very hard..." He frustratedly scratched his hair.

He was very close to making a working example of a Lithium-ion battery. But it had already caught fire 30 times since he started creating the final battery. It was obvious that this thing would not be safe. And when it reaches the market, all the companies that are themselves researching it will pounce on Adam, calling the battery a very dangerous invention. And when they also develop it, they will start lobbying for its advantages.

"Solid Electrolyte? what can it be?" He wondered and returned to his workstation, to look at various substances he uses in his potions. Throughout his time researching with Adam, Ragnar had learned one thing. There were many items that muggles take too much money to produce from nature while wizards get it easy with magic. Just take Lithium for example. It was very costly in the muggle market, but in a potions shop, it was cheap.

He again folded his sleeve and got to work. Just wanting to finish this project before heading to school.

"I wonder how much money Uncle Adam will make with this new battery. Will people even buy it?" He wondered, not knowing what he was creating could be worth billions.
