After class, Edward walked to his room in the castle to prepare to leave. Midway through, he encountered Harry Potter, who seemed to be waiting for him.
"How can I help you, Mr. Potter?"
"Professor. Well, my God-father Sirius wanted me to invite you to dinner to thank you for clearing his name and giving Wormtail, I mean Peter Pettigrew the punishment that he deserved."
Edward frowned, then he said: "I'm sorry, but I have to disappoint you. I'm currently very busy and have no time. It has reached the point that I will not even be teaching for the remainder of the semester."
"Is that so?"
"Yes. But tell Sirius that when I have time, I will be glad to visit him."
After padding Harry's shoulder, he entered his room. However, soon afterward, he received a communication from Snape through a cell phone."
Edward first activated the enchantments in the room that prevented other people from snooping, then he answered the call. A holographic image of Severus Snape appeared in front of him.
"What is it?" asked Edward.
"Sir, some of the Death Eaters brought to my attention a little problem. Many of them do not have the talent or patient for research, so they are asking if there were other ways that they can be useful?"
"That is indeed a problem. Well, place them in the training program with the werewolves and vampires. Speaking of, how is their training going?"
"I have been following the training regiment design by the muggle military officer, so they now a truly elite magical force. However…"
"Say it if there is a problem?"
"No, they do not have any problem. It's just that my research, and the things going on with Lily, I feel like I do not have enough time. So, I would like for someone else to take my position."
"Hmm, do you have any suggestions?"
"The Malfoys!"
"The Malfoys? I remember that they were researching grafting magical organs on wizards and muggles?"
"The research is mainly done by Narcissa. So, Lucius can take charge of training the army."
"Well, so be it. Is there anything else?"
"No, Sir."
"Okay, then."
--Scene Break--
Edward walking on the lowest level of the Ministry of Magic. Amelia was next to him, while a person with a hood on was behind them.
"How are things going?" asked Edward.
"Quite great actually. The initiative to introduce muggle technology to British wizards is going rather well. All we have to do is buy them, then magically enchant them."
"Has there been any backlash internationally?"
"Not as much as we expected. Your reputation is far greater than you expected."
"How about your magical capabilities?"
"They are also going well. Recently, using the [Practice Method] and the [Potion Method] you gave me, I broke the First and Second Limiter. It was easier than expected."
Edward nodded as he was not too surprised by his aunt's talent. According to the original timeline, Amelia was one of the most powerful witches of this time. Before her death, she fought countless Death Eaters alone without being defeated.
In the end, Voldemort himself had to take action to kill her, and it was implied that put on a good fight.
"What about your mana level?"
"What's mana?"
"Well, I recently learned that magic power used to be called mana in the past. So, I'm calling that now."
"Weird, but okay. I used the potion you gave me, but after reaching the level of 60x, I discover that it was hard to control my mana. So, I stopped and began to practice control. Once I'm used to that level, I will continue to use the potion."
(A/N: From now on. I will use x to indicate the mana of an adult wizard. So, 60x is 60 times the mana of an adult wizard.)
Edward nodded with his aunt's action. He did not have this problem because of how strong his soul is, but that did not apply to everyone.
Soon, they reached their destination: the Department of Mysteries.
The group met with a bunch of people waiting for them; to be precise, the Unspeakables. Amelia looked at them and said: "As I mentioned before, Edward and the person behind us will lead your research from now on."
All the Unspeakables had an excited look on their face. Ever since the new Minister took office, she has financially supported their research with all her effort. And now, their department will be led by a world-famous wizard.
Edward too was excited. Although he would sneak into this department to study--especially when he first created his Gate. But now, he had open access to all the mysteries. Plus now, he had help and more understanding of magic. He could foresee that it won't be long before his Gate is completed.
With a smile on his face, he took out a bunch of crowns and diadems from his bag. He placed one on his head, gave one to the person behind him, then handed the rest to these Unspeakables.
The completion of these diadems almost broke him because of how much they costed him. Luckily, he had many Philosopher's Stone. He first explained the diadem's ability to increase intelligence, then he said: "A group of you will go with me to study time and space, while the other will go with the person behind me to study love and death. Any questions?"
Seeing that no one had questions, he motioned for them to head to the meeting room, then he had a separate conversation with the hooded person.
"So, have you adopted to being resurrected?"
"Yes. But I cannot believe that the world changed so much," replied Lily.
"That's good. Did you see your son?"
"Harry? He has grown very well. I'm very satisfied."
"Well, given his situation, he indeed grew well."
Lily sighed. She did not expect her sister to behave this way. However, given the situation, she was just glad that she was willing to take Harry in.
"When can I properly see him?" Asked Lily.
"Soon."
"I can wait, but please do not forget your promise."
"I'm a man of my words. As long as you discover some secrets regarding love magic and death magic, I will grant you Reward Points. And as long as you have enough points, I can resurrect your husband for you."
"I will trust you for now."
After that, Edward started his research on the different divisions of this department--specifically, time and space. He first read all the research that the Unspeakables made in the past. Although he already stole some of them, he soon discovered that the real research was hidden so thoroughly that he did not even know of their existence.
Just like that, it was the end of the Second Year.

Edward was with his cousin Susan, walking her to the train.
"So, how did it feel to win this year's House Cup?" he asked.
"Excellent. Didn't you see how joyous Madam Sprout was? She was bragging to all her colleagues."
"I bet it was not as easy as you expected."
Susan's mouth twitched after hearing this. Of course, it was not easy. With Hermione having access to the same knowledge as her, it was not so easy to get points. Luckily, she still had years of knowledge ahead of her, but she could foresee that in the future, things will be even more difficult.
Soo, the two arrived at the train station. "Are you sure you do not want me to just Apparate you home?"
"No, I want to spend some time with my friends."
"Alright, have fun."
After watching the train leave, Edward apparated to his laboratory on the moon. The first thing he did was to visit his World Gate
He entered the core and looked at all the enchantment.
"I cannot believe that I thought I reached the peak of Alchemy in this world. Now, I can see so many things wrong with these enchantments that it's embarrassing."
So, for the next two weeks, he removed all his previous ones and replaced them. With his understanding of Dragon Chant Magic, his discoveries in the past few months after studying time and space in the Department of Mysteries, he innovated the entire Gate.
He removed some redundant or unnecessary enchantments, optimized the necessary aspects, and he added new ones to it.
Looking at the completed improvements. Edward said: "Perfect. Well, at least in my eyes. I'm sure that a more powerful Alchemist would see many flaws in it, however, this is currently the limit of my knowledge."
After everything was done, Edward first decided to take a visit into the future to steal knowledge. After studying the Aging Process in the Time Room in the Department of Mysteries, he managed to crack this ability.
He activated the Gate, powering through the Stone. "In theory, I should be able to go to more than 300 years into the future."
A tunnel appeared and the World Gate entered it. As for Edward, he felt like many years passed, but at the same time, he felt like an instant.
After arriving at his destination, Edward left the Gate. The first thing he noticed was that he was in a desert with nothing in sight. Then, a tablet was floating not far from him, with a note attached to it.
The note read: To Edward Bones.
With vigilance, Edward launched a reconnaissance spell. Through the vibration, he could see everything a few hundred meters around him, but he did not find anything, not even an ant.
He waved his hand and the tablet flew to him. He opened it, and a video started to play. And in the video, he saw himself.
"Hello, past me. Welcome to the year 2093."
'Only a hundred years?' thought Edward.
"I know that you are wondering why only a hundred years passed. Well, I can tell you that because of certain restrictions of the Laws of this Universe, you cannot travel more than 100 years into the future. And even that has certain restrictions."
Edward frowned after hearing this, but he continued listening.
"Well, let's get back to business. In this tablet, I have left for you all the technological advances of this world for the past 100 years and the knowledge on how to integrate magic and technology using the mana crystals. Although only the very basic knowledge, it should save you a lot of time, and allowing you rapid development in the early years.
"Now, as for magic knowledge, I will not leave any. As they said, the journey is as important as the process."
Edward's mouth twitched after hearing this. He wondered since when did he get so philosophical.
"Now, I have a few warnings for you. First, when you start your travel to other worlds and dimensions, do not mess around with time. Even if you have the ability, do not travel through time. The same idea applies to our universe. Death was not lying when he said that there would be dire consequences for doing so.
"Additionally, do not revive a lot of people before you find a way to deal with Death. You can still do it but in moderation.
"Now. I'm sure you would like to receive more information from your future self, but this is not possible. Good luck."
After the video ended, Edward sighed at how strange his life is that he just exchange information with his future self. However, he was not planning to completely listen to him.
After arriving in the future, of course, he has to acquire magical knowledge. Otherwise, his trip would be in vain.
Unfortunately for Edward, as soon as that idea came to his mind, the World Gate appeared on his own, swallowed him, and returned him to the present.
With a flabbergasted looked on his face, he smiled wryly as he muttered; "It seems that my future self knows me the best."
He did not try again to go to the future as he could guess that his future self might be way more powerful than him, and would prevent him from succeeding. There was no point in doing something pointless.
Taking out the tablet, he started reviewing the information on the tablet.
"Well, my future self is very thorough; he gave me knowledge on all fields, even things like psychology and archaeology. More importantly, he seemed to know what I wanted and gave me a lot of technology on aerospace.
"With this knowledge, it won't only take a few decades for Earth to turn into an interstellar civilization and spread to all the corners of our Solar System.
"With the addition of magitech--the combination of magic and technology--the process would be faster and easier. This will be a great help to building the Wizard Civilization."
After reviewing the information and making a copy of it, Edward gave it to the scientists under his commands to analyze it in detail. Then, he returned to the Gate.
"Morganna, let's begin our first-dimensional travel test."
"Sir, are you positive? The chances of failures are more than 95%."
"That's why we have to test it, see the problem and fixed it."
"As you command.
"Beginning Test. Fusing Spatial Force with Temperoal Force... Accomplish...Supplying Energy...No problem with Energy Storage...Checking all Enchantments...No Problem Detected...Breaking Dimensional Wall...Recording all Energy Readings."
Edward felt like everything was shaking around him, making it difficult to hold his ground. The process lasted for more than an hour, making him a little dizzy.
After everything stopped, he said: "Did it work?"
"Not enough information to answer this question."
"That's fair. Morganna, remind me to deal with the issue of turbulence."
"As you order."
Edward checked the surroundings first from inside the Gate. After seeing that there was no danger, he left.
However, as soon as he did so, he paused as he noticed something around him.
(A/N: As an author, it is very difficult for me to write anything related to time traveling. After all, how do you write a character that can go back in time to change his mistakes? Or go to the future to get the answer to any problems he faced. So, I'm nerfing Edward's ability to time travel from now on. Unless necessary, I will not use it."
