Chapter 482: 482. Nearing The Goal

On Athena's 2nd birthday, Magnus decided to inaugurate the British History Museum. There was a special section named Arthur Pendragon. In it, there was a big wall with a timeline of Arthur's whole life. There were various swords, crowns, armours and other artefacts. Heck, Merlin was also given a place but it was said that he was a warrior and a healer/chemist. He helped win wars with the use of chemicals.

A replica of the entire Round Table was created with wax statues of all members sitting around it. Magnus tried not to add any mythical items but he did add things that would get the historians thinking about the past.

Then there were segments as the time progressed, all the next kings and queens came. Magnus didn't hide the colonial past either and addressed it for what it was. There was no point in hiding it. He announced that all artefacts that were taken from colonies will be returned as long as they can assure that they will be taken care of and put in museums for people to see. After all, what was the point of returning if they will just be destroyed?

Then finally there was a section for Magnus and his parents. There were wax statues of Adam, Grace, Magnus, Ragnar and Emma. Triplets and Athena will get theirs when they grow into adults.

There were a lot of things that signified all the inventions Magnus and his family made. But many more were to come.

...

"Happy Birthday, my dear Athena," Magnus kissed hir daughter's cheeks. She giggled joyfully.

All kids were together, it was thanksgiving so the triplets were back as well. A warm little party was held in Camelot for her birthday. She was dressed in a cute white princess dress, with a little crown placed on her head. She looked more like an angel than a princess.

Emma went crazy clicking pictures of her while others fawned over. There was not much they could give her as a gift other than toys.

Ragnar, however, gave her a talking teddy bear who could recite her poems whenever she felt bored. He was probably one of the most creative members of the family.

"You three, how is your school going? I am not getting any complaints anymore." Magnus asked the gremlins.

They tried to look away, "Hehe, everything's fine, big brother. The Slytherin common room is so fun. There are so many photos of you all around the school."

"And there is a lesson in the History of Magic about you, big brother. It tells how you defeated one thousand werewolves and Voldemort." Clementia added, her eyes shining in pure pride she felt about him.

"Haha, that was such a long time ago. All right, no talk about school now. We are holding a competition for eating chicken and pancakes. Whoever wins gets a cash prize."

...

1986 ended soon. Magnus and his family continued their work with nothing new or major happening. Of course, every once in a while some news media house would post something they should not that could hamper the growth of the world, they would be put down.

In the year 1987, one major thing happened. Magnus by now had a good control over Christianity around the world now. The pope was his guy. Buddhists were also pretty much at peace, the Dalai Lama was brought into the fold. Hinduism was also controlled with the help of a few religious leaders in India and Nepal. Israel was a happy little Jewish place. Islam didn't have a focal point at this point, Magnus helped in that too. There was an organisation called OIC, all Islamic nations were a part of it. The organisation unanimously elected a new head, naming him Caliph. It was an old rank that was abolished a long time ago after WW1 ended with Ottoman Empire being destroyed.

Caliph is the chief Muslim civil and religious ruler. In earlier times it was only supposed to be made with the authority of god. But slowly the rank became more political than religious.

They elected Haitham Khaalid al-Muhammad al-Aziz as the Caliph of Ummah. Ummah means Muslim World. The man would act as a focal point for Muslims around the world, he would lead them into a future full of progress, peace and prosperity.

Magnus, however, had to make sure that all religious leaders were under his complete iron grasp because if even one of them went rogue, that would cause extreme destruction.

...

The year 1988 was the next, it was highly important for Magnus as this year the giant Great African Railways was going to be launched. The tracks had been laid down, they were all electrified. The train engines for now were going to be electric based as the Nuclear Fusion reactor was still in its initial phase, miniaturising it would take years.

But Fusion reactors were already up and running in the UK, from Scotland to Zimbabwe, from Belize to Brunei. Fusion reactors accounted for 40% of the UK's power needs, Fission Reactors accounted for 45% of energy needs, rest 10% were from the windmill and hydroelectric dams. Only 5% was from fossil fuels.

The railway system was going to bring trillions of dollars into the African region and also make Magnus richer. At this point, he even stopped trying to see how rich he was. He had already surpassed the wealth of the richest fictional characters ever made in comics. Heck, he might even surpass the rest in a few years once he starts mining the asteroids.

In the capital of Zimbabwe, Magnus arrived to inaugurate the train system. It was a major developed city by now and one of the main hubs for the train system. Zimbabwe alone supported 30% of the UK's GDP of 3.45 Trillion(745 Billion in our world).

The United Kingdom had come a long way and was not too far from the American GDP at this stage. Americans had 4.85 Trillion. But it was worth mentioning that the average GDP per capita in the UK was much higher.

He stood in front of a small crowd on a stage. Behind him was a giant locomotive designed by Adam and manufactured by his company. "Everyone, this steel behemoth behind me is not a simple train, it's the future of Africa. This continent, which was the cradle of humanity, evolution and so much more will finally see true prosperity.

"While conserving nature and also developing cities, towns and roads, we will have Africa that's rich and yet true to its roots. On this occasion, I am glad to not just announce the start of this train but also some other projects.

"A similar railway is going to be constructed in the American continents, going from Canada to Argentina. Other than this, a trans-Europe line will be made, going from the UK to Russia and all the way to the Northern parts of Korea. One more line will be made for Asia and the Middle East, going from Thailand to India, Pakistan, Afghanistan, Iran, Iraq, then heading to Europe through Syria and Turkey. In Europe, it will travel through Bulgaria, Serbia, Hungary, Austria, Germany, Belgium and then end up in the United Kingdom.

"There will be hundreds of feeder lines along the way. With this, the cost of shipping and connectivity will be greatly enhanced since trains are much faster than ships. Not to mention, ships create more pollution. However, ships will not become irrelevant as these train lines can only help countries that lack a port or are too big to have access to ports all around.

"With this, the entire world shall know prosperity." [A/N: Lol. This is the reverse Pain from Naruto.]

Claps resounded and clicks of cameras made noises. Magnus headed to cut the ribbon in front of the locomotive and got into the pilot's cabin. It was spacious with all kinds of luxury. It had comfortable leather seats with big windows for a great view, the cabin was fully air-conditioned, there was a full bath with a toilet and even a tiny kitchen with freezer and microwave. There was also a cabin with two sleeping beds with noise cancellations. A single train will be handled by 3 men at a time. 2 will be the main pilots and one will be the conductor/pilot.

This was because an average time to complete the full journey from one end to the other would require at least 4-6 days. But the pilots were going to be treated like plane pilots, they will have to leave their urine samples before boarding the trains, they have to wear a special watch that will notify them about when they should sleep and wake up. The salaries were going to be great too, so all this was worth it.

Although the computers were there to help and automate a lot of things, humans were still needed to operate them. The machines were not yet that reliable.

Magnus sat down by the pilot seat and looked at the changing view outside. The greenery and the desert lands of Africa, the train ran on elevated tracks in a number of places. The experience was truly mesmerising. This was the fruit of his hard world.

~I hope I can keep developing the world. I wonder if dad will get the AM engine up and running so I can at least see Mars before I die.~ he muttered to himself.

He opened the door and walked outside the pilot cabin and stood at the front of the train on the covered platform edge. The air brushed past his face, his hair and beard fluttered. He looked at the shiny blue clear sky, ~I think I've done great up until now. Take that, Merlin.~

Merlin in the locket, who had not spoken in years, chuckled, "Haha, I gladly accept defeat this time, Magnus. You splendidly outdid me."

___________________

1988 was the year Magnus had a secret meeting with the Ministers for Magic, Presidents of magical communities and other leaders from around the world. It was the first of its kind, as even in the ICW these heads don't come. ICW is more like an independent organisation for all wizards, it does not have members that represent a particular region.

He had pretty much brought the entire world together, now it was time for the wizarding world to come together. Magnus's dreams of turning the planet into one giant rich civilisation with a world economy were impossible without Wizard's help. After all, the key to being rich came from stability across the world and more resources, these resources could only be brought from space.

While muggles were amazingly good with technology, wizards with their magic were extremely helpful in some circumstances and they were physically stronger than any human.

In a secret undisclosed location, Magnus tried to talk them into cooperating. "The new world is not defined by borders, at least that had been the case with us wizards. If we look just a century ago, there were no specialised country-based wizarding organisations. Wizards were free to go wherever we wanted, work and live.

"But now, just like the muggles, we have divided ourselves. There is no meaning to the words American Wizards, British Wizard or Chinese Wizard. We are all one single entity because we come from the same history.

"We were persecuted, burnt, killed and hated, we went into hiding and tried to keep to ourselves. As good of an idea as it may have sounded back then, the current reality speaks a different story. While the muggles progressed with technology, wizards regressed into a conservative backward society. You can take the finest example from the previous pure-blood supremacists.

"I have said this before in the ICW, we need to join hands to keep the world safe and united. Wizards if work together can achieve more than we have in the past millennia. So I recommend that ICW be turned into a wizard version of the United Nations. A better working one."

Magnus gave his suggestions about the betterment of the wizarding world. His main focus was to create employment for the wizards, through ICW, they can hire wizards from around the world. Magnus was anyway the biggest employer.

The meeting was not very successful, Magnus did not have control over all of them. Some agreed, some asked for time and some outright rejected the idea because they would have to give up some of their powers. But in the long run, they will join too, because if they want the riches, joining was the only way.

...

It was June of the same year. His siblings were back home, now they had just completed their 3rd year. Being 13, a lot of changes have taken over them. They looked much more mature and smarter. But they still had some baby fat on their faces.

"WE'RE HOME!" The three shouted as soon as they entered the home. Although they had a giant castle in Camelot, they had divided the top floor to be their main housing area. It had a giant living room, kitchen and a few bedrooms. They liked it this way as it made sure they would look at each other's faces every once in a while, otherwise, the castle would have been too much.

Magnus was about to head out to Australia but stopped to greet them. "Haha, how are my munchkins?"

"We're not kids now, big brother." Aurelia protested.

Magnus ruffled her hair, "Is that so? But logically, the age gap between us is the same as before. So that means that relative to me you have not grown at all."

She raised her hand to argue, but Magnus was not wrong at all. "Ugh... why do I forget you are smarter than me,"

Magnus laughed and hugged her head, "It comes with age, dear. Now go and change your clothes. Clem and Max, you too. We are going out for dinner tonight. It's time we show Athena to the world, they are going crazy and some are even saying that Athena does not exist,"

"I want chocolate dumplings," Maximus requested.

"Sure, you can eat whatever you want, boy. We will have a whole team of chefs working for us. Clem, do you want anything special?" He asked her. Knowing she was a quiet child, he always tried to bring her into conversations.

"Um... anything will do, big brother. But... I won't mind some Lasagne." She sheepishly answered.

"Great, Lasagne it is then. Severus and Narcissa will also be joining us with their son. The boy is 8 years old now, I hope he turned out well." He muttered at the end, truly wondering how Draco turned out to be, after all, he'd hate to kill him.

Soon enough, the three were off to their rooms. They were old enough to have separate ones now. Basically, the moment they hit puberty they were given rooms.

"DAD!" Then came Athena, now four and a half years old. Her ashen-blonde hair had grown longer and she looked nothing less than a real princess, which she was.

He picked her in arms, "Oh, what does my princess want?"

"I-I went to school today and learned to make a tower. Will you see?" She asked with the most adorable puppy eyes ever.

Magnus would have stabbed himself if he said no, "Of course, show me."

She wriggled and jumped out of his hold. She ran back into her toy room and brought something along. Her hands were held in front of her, she walked carefully as to not damage her creations, "See, isn't it like a tower?"

It was a Cat's cradle tower. She seemed so proud of achieving this feat and there was no doubt she must have tried hard to get it right. Magnus fawned over her, showering her with praise, "Woah, this is amazing. Your dad really does not know how to make it. Will you teach me?"

She seemed shocked that her awesome father didn't know. She looked left and right to ensure they were alone, "Will you pinky promise not to teach others?"

He crouched down to her level and extended his pinky finger, "Okay, this will be our little secret, now will you teach me?"

A smile that'd put a thousand rainbows to shame appeared on her face. She strongly wobbled her head and shook the pinky finger with hers, "Hehe, anything for daddy dearest. Just do as I do,"

He allowed her to sit on his lap as the father-daughter duo played in front of the fireplace. Wanting to spend extra time with her, he made sure to fail a dozen times.

It seemed to frustrate her as well, "Oh Dad, you are so slow,"

He chuckled, "Not my fault, Athena. I've never done this before."

At that, Athena stood up quickly, her face having a stern expression. *Pat* She patted his shoulder with her tiny chubby hands, "Don't worry, Dad, I will never leave my student,"

*Cough* "Is there a place for another student?" Ragnar's voice came.

"SMELLY-BEARD UNCLE! You spy on us?" Athena quickly hid her threads.

Ragnar's brows twitched, "Not my fault, you were too loud. And this is the living room, anybody can enter here. Also, don't you want another student?"

"Ummm... Okie, but you won't get a free class like dad. You pay," she showed her palm.

Ragnar grunted as he placed lemon candy on her palm. But even after one, she didn't accept him, "This will finish in one day," she said.

Ragnar sighed and added 4 more. This was all her small palm could hold. She cheered up and put them in her pocket carefully. Soon, Magnus and Ragnar sat crossed legged side by side. In front of them, Athena walked left and right, giving them instructions and telling them whenever they made a wrong move.

Two tall, 28-year-old beardy brothers getting scolded by a 5-year-old was the cutest scene one could see in the castle. That's why Dobby was tasked to record such incidents. So he was secretly recording this exchange.

"ARGH! Making potions is so much easier than this," Ragnar grunted in annoyance.

Magnus smirked and this time made a tower as Athena instructed. She was overjoyed and left a kiss on his cheek, she boasted, "Of course, you are not as smart as my daddy. But don't worry, I never leave my students,"

"Oh, teacher Athena, what would I do without you? I am profoundly honoured by your ardent persistence to teach me." Ragnar praised her.

Athena had a confident face and stayed standing in dignity, but then suddenly she jumped toward Magnus and whispered in his ear, "Daddy, what did uncle say?"

Magnus could not control it anymore. He hugged her tight and laughed, "Hahaha... don't mind him, dear, he speaks nonsense. Oye, Rag, how dare you use such tough words."

Ragnar slid closer and ruffled Athena's hair, "Forgive uncle then, I am too stupid to realise you were still learning. By the way, do you want to learn how to make lemon candies?"

\(≧▽≦)/

She quickly got away from Magnus and jumped onto Ragnar like a little monkey. "YES! You're the best, Uncle Rag!"

Magnus shook his head in silence as he stared daggers at Ragnar. They both fought mentally, ~That's bribery, you bitch,~

~Haha, then cry about it, your fatass majesty. I'm off,~ Ragnar got up, still holding Athena in his arms, then took her to his lab.
