Chapter 53: Chapter 53: Immortality
[Power Stones Required]
Eisen knew all too well that villains tend to talk too much, and that often leads to their downfall. So, when Voldemort questioned him, Eisen had no intention of answering.
Quirrell, writhing in pain, strained to make out Eisen's identity. Without hesitation, Eisen raised his wand and cast a silent blasting curse.
Boom—
Quirrell's body disintegrated into dust, vanishing completely.
Even if Quirrell had managed to identify Eisen, he wouldn't have been able to reveal his identity. The Golden Bell-style Iron Armor Curse that Eisen cast was incredibly powerful—it not only enveloped his entire body but also obscured much of his own vision. To any onlookers, when Eisen cast the spell, he appeared like a shimmering figure under a giant golden bell. Thus, Quirrell had no chance to expose him to Voldemort.
Had Quirrell been armed and ready, Eisen might have had to struggle with him for a bit. But since Quirrell had been focused entirely on Harry from the beginning, he was caught off guard by Eisen's attack and stood no chance.
Just as Quirrell's remains disappeared, a shadow flickered and darted through the black flames, vanishing from both Eisen and Harry's sight.
With a thought, Eisen dispelled the Iron Armor Curse around him, and the metal coat on Harry's body reverted to its original form.
"Professor Eisen, did Voldemort survive?" Harry asked in shock, not yet fully comprehending the transformation he'd just undergone.
"Yes, Voldemort is far from easy to kill," Eisen replied, understanding that Harry had also seen the shadow. Although Quirrell's body had been destroyed, Voldemort's soul remained intact.
"Oh, Professor, here's the Philosopher's Stone." Harry took the red stone from his pocket and handed it to Eisen.
Eisen accepted it, examining the stone curiously.
"Can I extract a miraculous feature to replicate its extraordinary properties—perhaps even the legendary immortality feature?"
"Detected extraordinary characteristics—Legendary-level Immortality and Perfect-level Midas Touch. Would you like to consume a miraculous characteristic to replicate them?"
Much to Eisen's surprise, the Philosopher's Stone had two distinct features. One was the legendary immortality, and the other was the perfect-level Midas Touch.
When Eisen saw that the immortality characteristic was extractable, he couldn't help but smile. It seemed his patience had paid off. Without hesitation, he selected the immortality option. The Gold Finger panel underwent a brief change.
**Character:** Eisen Turner
**Extraordinary Talent:** Magic (Activated)
**Magic Value:** 7030 (increases by 10 daily)
**Extraordinary Characteristics:** Excellent-level Spellcasting (Fused), Legendary-level Immortality (Unfused)
**Miracle Feature:** 0 (one is generated every year)
Eisen wasted no time and immediately focused on fusing the immortality trait.
"Do you wish to fuse the immortality feature?" a prompt asked.
Though this was different from the usual fusion process, Eisen confirmed without hesitation. Almost instantly, a wave of magical energy surged through his body, fusing with his essence. A deep, almost unbearable itching sensation spread through his bones.
His face twisted in pain, but just as the agony became overwhelming, the sensation receded, leaving a sense of profound relief.

Satisfied with the integration, Eisen dismissed the Gold Finger panel.
"Return this to Professor Dumbledore when the time comes," Eisen said, handing the stone back to Harry.
Harry, still somewhat dazed from recent events, declined. "I think you should keep it, Professor."
Before Eisen could respond, a figure suddenly appeared beside them—Dumbledore, with Fawkes the phoenix perched on his shoulder. The phoenix had clearly helped Dumbledore bypass the castle's powerful anti-Apparition wards.
"Professor Dumbledore!" Harry exclaimed, visibly relieved. With the arrival of the headmaster, his tension finally released, and he wobbled slightly on his feet.
"Eisen, Harry retrieved the Philosopher's Stone and managed to thwart Voldemort," Eisen said, handing the stone to Dumbledore.
"Voldemort? Harry, are you alright?" Dumbledore asked, alarmed at hearing the Dark Lord's name. He hurried to check on Harry after taking the stone from Eisen.
"I'm okay..." Harry began but then collapsed, clutching his scar.
Dumbledore quickly examined him and, finding nothing seriously wrong, sighed in relief. He turned to Eisen. "Harry needs rest in the hospital wing. We'll discuss the details of what happened later."
"Of course, Professor," Eisen replied, understanding that Dumbledore would want a full account soon.

The next day, while Harry recuperated, Eisen recounted the events in Dumbledore's office. He started with the troll incident on Halloween the previous year, narrating everything he had been involved in.
"Then, Professor Eisen, when you knew Harry and the others were going to stop Snape, why didn't you stop them?" Dumbledore asked, picking up on the one point of curiosity.
Eisen had anticipated this. After all, a professor, upon learning that students were about to embark on a dangerous adventure, would normally try to intervene.
Eisen couldn't help but think: *If I had stopped them, would things have turned out the way you intended, Headmaster?* But instead of voicing that, he admitted, "Honestly, I didn't consider it at the time. I thought I could keep them safe."
"Professor Eisen," Dumbledore said gently, "you must understand that Voldemort is not completely vanquished. While you may have lived in the Muggle world, and thus aren't fully aware of the danger he poses, I think it's important you learn."
"I do, Professor," Eisen replied, his gaze unwavering. "And I'm more than ready to face Voldemort."
Though Eisen projected confidence, what he really wanted to say was that he wasn't merely brave—he had something far more powerful. But, of course, he couldn't mention Gold Finger. His confidence in facing the Dark Lord came from that mysterious advantage.
