________________

Bellatrix raised her head to look at the person who called her, a deranged smile appeared in her mouth before saying: "Are you sent by the Dark Lord?"

"No," replied Edward.

"Tsk, in that case, I do not need to care about you." After that, she muttered ever softly to herself: "Only the Dark Lord has the right to be this handsome. When he comes back, I will gladly torture this pretty boy and enjoy making many cuts in his face."

Of course, Edward heard her as she was not as quiet as she believed. However, he did not care about her words. What he cared about was her mind; after taking a tour there through Legilimency, he truly understood what the term "crazy" meant.

Bellatrix's mind was full of thoughts of killing, torture, and an unnatural devotion to Voldemort.

With a frown on his face, he walked inside her cell, point his wand at her before saying: "Resero Codexvita."

Instantly, he started analyzing Bellatrix's Life Code.

After deciphering the Ancient Runes that made up her bloodline and soul, he realized that there was an actual reason for her madness.

"After countless years of inbreeding, the Black family bloodline has become broken beyond repair, even affecting the soul. The mind is the link of the soul to the body. By affecting the soul, the mind is also affected.

"No wonder whether it was Sirius or her aunt Walburga, they all possessed a fierce and dangerous temper. In her case, the madness reached beyond imaginable."

As for Bellatrix, she was looking at him with the look of an animal wanting to pounce on its prey. Unfortunately, she discovered that she was incapable of moving, so her plans of trying to bite off Edward's hand to take his wand proved useless.

After analyzing Bellatrix's Life Code for a while, Edward muttered to himself: "I can deal with her bloodline problem later, the problem now is how to make her loyal to me. Her affection and loyalty for Voldemort have been so deeply imprinted in her mind that it even affected her soul."

After pondering for a brief moment, Edward used a Comma Charm on Bellatrix, then, with a wave of his wand, a transparent figure looking exactly like her appeared from her body: it was her soul.

Then, Edward started to modify her memories, weaving a complex and intriguing tale.

According to Bellatrix's new memory, once she was young, she accidentally received a prophecy. In this prophecy, she saw a vague figure standing in a floating city with countless figures standing behind him. This figure fought countless unimaginable beings, countless Demons, and Gods, and was victorious.

Among the people behind this vague figure was her--who was standing right next to him-- and many other families in the wizarding world.

After receiving that prophecy, she searched and waited for that person--until she met Voldemort. With his unmatched power, Bellatrix believed that he was the hidden figure in the prophecy, so she became loyal to him, she devoted her body, soul, and entire being to him.

Then, when Voldemort died and she went to torture the Longbottoms for information, she "accidentally" learned that Voldemort was a half-blood. She became devastated and outraged because the only thing she knew for sure about the hidden figure was that he was a pure-blood.

Knowing that she served the wrong person, she decided to punish herself by spending years in Azkaban. She was also waiting for that hidden figure to show up. Since she was by his side when he fought the Gods, then they will eventually meet.

Nevertheless, she did not want anyone else to notice the change in her behavior, so she displayed "loyalty" to Voldemort to the outside.

Of course, none of these things happened, and Edward was just using Bellatrix's obsession with both pure-blood ideologies and Voldemort to guide her to be obsessive and undyingly loyal to him.

There was an easier way for him to get her loyalty. He could forcibly rewrite her own will. During his travels, while in the southern part of Haiti, he learned from a Haitian dark wizard how to refine zombies.

This dark magic was similar to Inferius, except for the fact Inferi are created from the body of the dead, while zombies are created from living people.

If Edward wanted, he could modify the zombie transformation and make it into an obedient slave that follows all his orders. The problem with that is the fact that people with no will of their own have no creative ability, just blindly follow orders; that is not what he needed Bellatrix for.

So, to get her loyalty "willingly" without affecting her thinking ability, he went into so much trouble. Of course, this was not enough to reassure him.

After finishing modifying her memories directly through her soul so that these memories would never actually be discovered as false, Edward placed her soul back into her body. Then, he pointed his wand at the Dark Mark on her forearm.

A white light came from his wand and entered the mark. Following this, the Dark Mark changed from its previous design to an ouroboros with a pyramid inside. Inside the pyramid was a lotus with a single eye at the center.

The ouroboros represents infinity, the pyramid stands for rebirth after death, the lotus symbolizes wisdom and the eye stands for truth and knowledge. The whole design is a representation of Edward's limitless pursuit of knowledge through intelligence and wisdom after he was granted a second chance at life.

After the new mark was replaced from Bellatrix's hand, it started to move around in her skin before disappearing. Afterward, it appeared deep in her soul. This is the backhand that Edward left on her in case someone powerful enough to remedy her soul again and erased the memories he so cautiously planted.

Edward was never arrogant, believing that his plans were infallible. As a person who will one day travel across countless universes and dimensions, he can imagine the kind of powerful being he will encounter.

There is no doubt in his mind that many of these people have that ability. So, he placed a backhand on Bellatrix in case such a day arrived. Then, he can still forcefully control her through that method, or instantly kill her in case she betrays him or someone tries to get information about him from her soul.

A few minutes later, Bellatrix opened her eyes with a look of confusion on her face. However, after seeing Edward's face, the hidden figure that she could never see suddenly became very vivid to her.

She instantly got up from the floor, before saying: "Lord, I finally found you, After so many years, you finally came to see me."

After that, she looked at her ragged appearance with a frown, then she knelt on the ground: "I'm sorry that I am not presentable in front of you, my Lord."

Edward looked at her actions, then nodded in satisfaction after reading her mind. "Get up." Bellatrix followed the instruction.

"Open your mouth," said Edward, and she did not hesitate.

With a wave of his wand, her teeth turned white and clean. With another wave, she was cleaned up and wearing proper clothes. Bellatrix could even smell a lavender scent coming from her body.

"You are now more presentable," said Edward. He placed his wand inside a small pouch that was hanging inside his coat. "Accio Daniella."

(AN; The Accio Charm cannot summon people, but this one was modified by Edward to be able to do so.)

A woman that looked exactly like Bellatrix was taken out from the pouch, however, she had a dull look in her eyes--as if unresponsive to any external stimuli.

Edward had used the philosopher's stone to permanently change her appearance for her to take Bellatrix's place in Azkaban.

After placing Daniella in the cell, Edward handed his arm to Bellatrix, then with a burning flame, he disappeared from Azkaban.

In this short visit, he acquired an army of Dementors that only followed his orders and right-hand women that can do all the dirty things or experiment that his fleeting morality will not allow him to do.

-------

Well, I understand that the plot of this chapter is a little too convoluted, but I do not know any better way to do so--without totally changing Bellatrix's personality. I could not just write that she was impressed by Edward's talent, then decided to devote herself to him. Or he just used Imperius Curse. So, bear with it for now.

The second chapter for the Naruto Fanfic is coming tonight, at a very late hour. Maybe.

_____________________

After leaving Azkaban, Edward teleported himself and Bellatrix to his laboratory on the moon using the World Gate's power. Of course, she did not know the exact location but just found herself inside a very large space with many differently labeled rooms.

Edward had her waiting for him in the lounge for a few hours before meeting her again. Then, he handed a necklace to her.

Immediately after wearing it, Bellatrix found her mind completely calm and indifferent, extremely logical; the majority of her aggression and sadistic nature turned into an extremely logical one.

This necklace was enchanted with a version of the Mechanized Mind Spell specifically designed to reign in her madness.

"I need you to learn the Mechanized Mind Spell as the necklace is only temporary," said Edward.

"My Lord, no problem. I will learn this charm as soon as possible so that I can help you lead the pure-blood family to glory and greatness."

However, Edward shook his head. "I need you to get these nonsense pure-blood theories out of your head as soon as possible. In the New World Order that I am about to create, there will be only two types of people: useful and useless.

"Muggles are classified as a useful one. In some cases, they might be even more important than wizards. As for you, do you know why I chose you?"

Bellatrix frowned as she realized that the new Lord that she was serving was different from that damn Voldemort who tricked her; he seemed to be more ambitious and did not care about people's origin.

Although these ideas contradict what she believed all her entire life, Bellatrix was willing to try to change to better serve her new master.

"I do not know, my Lord," she replied.

"The reason is that I need someone to do the dirty work that my already grey morality will not allow me to do. So, I do not need your pure-blood nonsense to get in the way of plans.

"As for your madness and craziness, it is one of the reasons that I chose you, but you have to keep a certain level of control of it. What I need is a mad dog that bites at my command, not one that bites everything and everyone without any sense of control."

Bellatrix took a moment to process the information she received, then with a twinkle in her eyes. "No worry my lord, I will be your most loyal and ferocious dog."

"Good," replied Edward. "Now, here is your first task after learning the Mechanized Mind Charm. I need you to create artificial Obscurials for me."

"Obscurial?" asked Bellatrix as she tried to remember the meaning of this term. After trying to remember for a while without any success, she said with a trembling voice: "My Lord, I do not know what Obscurials are, please punish me for my incompetence."

Edward frowned before answering: "I am not Voldemort, and I will not punish you for your ignorance."

After that, Edward took a few minutes to explain what an Obscurus was.

"My lord, how would we create such a thing artificially?"

"Simple," responded Edward. "I need you to capture a bunch of orphan children with magical abilities between the ages 6-8 years old, then divide them into two groups. For the first group, you will adopt the persona of a mother figure to them. However, you will punish them every time that they use their magical powers--creating both physical and emotional trauma to them.

"By doing this, you will force them to start repressing their magical abilities, leading to Obscurus forming from these children. Of course, to make sure that these children are often reprimanded for using their magic, you have to secretly create opportunities for them where they are forced to use their magic abilities. Then, you will 'accidentally' catch them, and punish them for their actions.

"As for the second group, you will modify their memories and instill years of abuse into their mind due to their magical abilities. I want to see if an Obscurial will be born that way and which process is quicker."

"My Lord, can I torture the children in the first group?" asked Bellatrix with a strange excitement in her voice.

After frowning, Edward answered: "There is no need for that. All I need you to do is to be strict and reprimanded them for using their magical ability. Just like this."

Then Edward placed all of Credence's memories of his mother in Bellatrix's head. "You just have to act like her."

"As you wish," replied Bellatrix.

"Remember what I said. I need your madness, but you have to be able to control, otherwise, you are useless to me." Bellatrix nodded her head.

Edward then suddenly thought of something and added: "There should be a third controlling group. By gathering the negative emotions of people and mixing them with magical power, let's see if an Obscurus can be born in that way. You can further divide this group into two: the negative emotions of adults and children and see the result."

Although he was a little guilty about these children, only a little. Since they will be fine after the experiment and he will erase their memories of the experience, they can still live normal lives. And he can get them adopted and provide them with a lavish lifestyle for the rest of their lives. Compared to their previous life as orphans, they would be much better.

If there were any other options, he would not do so. But according to his theory, the Obscurus might be the only power that can affect the Power of Law, thus the only power capable of hurting Death--in case something goes wrong. Edward was not the kind of person that liked to place his safety and that his family on the mood or decisions of others.

Furthermore, the Obscurus is not only for Death. When he begins his travel across dimensions, he might encounter some very powerful beings that are hostile to him. With the power of the Obscurus, hopefully, he can compete with them. If not, at least give him enough time to run away.

After all these thoughts flashed across his mind, Edward then asked: "Do you have any questions?" asked Edward.

After hesitating for a moment, Bellatrix replied: "My Lord, I cannot use a complex charm like weaving false memories into someone else's mind, or absorb negative emotions."

"You do not need to worry about that as I have many alchemy products to help you in your research. Additionally, you can learn," replied Edward. Then, he said out loud: "Siri, grant her temporary Level 3 Access to the Library. Additionally, on my authority, grant her a diadem for the duration of her study."

After Edward said these words, Bellatrix suddenly heard a voice speaking around her; she looked around, but could not find the origin of the voice.

"Granting "Bellatrix Lestrange' temporary Level 3 Authority. Processing… Access Granted."

Immediately after that, Bellatrix found a map inside her mind, and the map indicated what room she could enter with her permission and what resources were available to her based on her Authority Level.

Although she did not understand many of these things, she marveled at all the rooms she had access to and was flabbergasted by the amount of room she was forbidden to enter due to her low-level access.

Then, a look of yearning appeared on her face.

As for Edward, he looked at Bellatrix, who was acting like a country bump who had seen a modern city for the first time, then he frowned.

"Siri, before she starts her magical study, used the temporal advantage of the Mind Palace Spell to cram as much knowledge about modern muggle society and scientists in her mind."

"As you command, Sir."

Edward then nodded in satisfaction. With this method, Bellatrix can study and understand basic modern knowledge--mostly basic scientific knowledge--in a very short time, thus becoming a proper researcher that can help him.

Of course, as a result of this, Bellatrix will spend the next month with headaches so intense and painful that it would drive any ordinary person mad. With the help of potions, the side effects will be eased, but the process will still be brutal.

Nevertheless, Edward still has faith in her that she can take it--especially knowing that she was doing it to be more helpful to him.

After settling Bellatrix, Edward proceeded to prepare for his next step-- a step that will forever change the magical world.
