Unfortunately for Death, he did not see any panic, dread, or terror from Edward's face; just a plain and absolute calmness. He wondered whether this guy did not care as much as his parents as he let on.

"If you do such a thing, I can assure you that you will regret it," replied Edward calmly after seeing what was happening to his parents.

"And would that be? Mortal, you are not arrogant enough to think that you could actually hurt me?" asked Death with a sneering tone in his voice.

"Of course not," replied Edward, still with a calm look on his face. "I am not hubristic enough to believe that I could fight a literal God, at least not yet. However, what I can do is to share all my knowledge and understanding of death to all the wizards in this world.

"Hehe, and what would that accomplish," replied Death nonchalantly, still with the sneer in his voice.

"You can pretend all you want, but I know. In the past few years, I have tried many times to call the souls of either my parents or Lily Potter back to the living. However, I never actually succeeded.

"And I know that the reason I failed was not because my magic did not work, but someone actually interfered in the process. I am guessing that it was you who prevented me from succeeding.

"I am also guessing that you secretly investigate what it is that me and Snape are doing. And that after I acquire the Resurrection Stone, then it will be impossible for you to stop me from doing so.

"Now, imagine if all this taboo knowledge were to spread out among all the wizards in the world. Imagine having thousands of wizards trying to revive their dead loved ones, or trying to escape the shackles of death itself. What do you think would happen to the world?"

Death looked deeply at Edward, but it did not say anything. However, Edward did not stop talking:

"I'll tell you what will happen. The cycle of life and death would become chaotic. The fundamental laws of death that govern this world would be affected. And you, the physical manifestation of Death itself, will spend the rest of your lives trying to clean up after these wizards. And if something were to go completely wrong, you might even cease to exist."

"Damn wizards," cursed Death, then with a wave of his hand, Edward was sent out of this white room.

"The arrogance and audacity of this wizard reminded me of that damn old man Merlin. He always thought that he could do whatever he wanted, without paying for the consequences."

After muttering those words, both Death and the soul of Edward's parents also disappeared. However, they were no longer being burned alive.

Both Death and Edward had come to an understanding. Death will treat Edward's parents with the utmost care, and in return, Edward will keep those taboo knowledge to himself.

--Scene Break--

Back to the present, in front of the Mirror of Erised.

"Professor, you are saying that the God of Death is real? And he is in charge of the afterlife?" asked Harry with a look of shock on his face.

"That is correct."

"Are my parents there?"

"Giving that mine are, most likely yours are too, Mr. Potter."

"What is death like then?"

"Well, physically, he looked like a very tall Dementor. As for the experience, Professor Dumbledore once said to me that death was just another adventure. And in many ways, he was correct."

"What is a Dementor?" asked Harry in confusion.

"A very nasty, yet intriguing creature. You will get a chance to meet them later, Potter."

Following this conversation, the two of them became quiet as they stared at the mirror. A few minutes later, Edward spoke again:

"Mr. Potter, if you do not mind. Can you lend me your Invisibility Cloak for a while?"

"No problem, but is there a problem with it?"

"No, there is not. It is just that as an Alchemist, I can feel that your particular cloak is different from the typical ones. And I wished to study it for a while before returning it."

After taking Harry's cloak, Edward thought for a few seconds before taking another Invisible Cloak from his ring that he had placed an Undetected Extension Charm on. This one was made personally by him.

"You can use this one while I am studying yours."

"Professor, you do not have to."

"Potter, think of it as a Christmas present."

Finally, after Edward's persuasion, Harry took the seconds Invisible Cloak and left, while Edward had the Deathly Hallow in his hand.

____________________

The next day after meeting with Harry Potter inside the castle, Edward went to the Three Broomstick Inn at Hogsmeade to wait for someone.

While he was waiting, Madam Rosmerta approached him; she stood opposite him as she stared deep into his eyes.

"Now that you have graduated from Hogwarts, you suddenly do not want me anymore, Edward."

"Rosmerta my dear, I have been busy lately. Didn't you get the presents that I sent to you the past five years?" replied Edward with a smile on his face. Then, he stood up from his seat and went to embrace her. However, she just shrugged him away.

"If it was not due to these very pure bottles of Youth Potions that you have sent me, I would not even talk to you now."

"Don't be like that. I have some free time during the holiday, how about we spend some time together," replied Edward while holding Madam Rosmerta's hand.

The odd thing was that while these two were flirting openly inside the bar, no one paid attention to them. This was because cast a very powerful illusion on his table.

This illusion was based on the Muggle-Repelling Charm but was tweaked by Edward to work on wizards with lower levels of spiritual powers than him.

As a matter of fact. Edward knows that he is a man-whore, but he didn't care as he loved the accompaniment of beautiful women.

And Madam Rosmerta is amongst some of the beautiful women that he shared the process of bodily fluid exchange. And she belongs to the wild one. After using the Aging Potions, she can return to her youthful beauty, then she becomes quite wild.

At first, she was resistant to Edward's advance due to the age gap. However, she soon could not resist his charm. Not to mention the fact that wizards do not care about age gaps as muggles do. A perfect example of that is the age gap between Tonks and Lupin in the canon timeline.

After spending a few minutes apologizing to Rosmerta and promised her a bunch of benefits, they set a date during the Christmas break for Edward to come to visit her, and they will spend a magical night together,

Then, Edward went back to wait for his guest, which showed a few minutes later than the previously arranged time.

"Tonks, you are late," said Edward at the approaching young woman.

"I'm sorry, Edward, but Auror training went longer than expected," replied Tonks after taking a seat across from Edward.

The two of them knew each other back in school. When Edward was in his final year, Tonks was in the second year. At that time, Edward had just started to study bloodline and he was interested in Tonks, the natural-born Metamorphmagus.

Edward can say that he owes many of his accomplishments in Human Body Transfiguration by studying Tonks' ability. So, after meeting again after a few years of not seeing each other, the two of them started talking about many things.

They talked about their time in school, Tonks' Auror Training, and Edward's Five Years Long Vacation and Travel. Then, they got to business.

"Have you brought it?" Asked Edward calmly.

"Yes," replied Tonks as she took out a bunch of tubes filled with blood, her blood. "Are you sure that you are not using my blood to do some kind of dark magic ritual?"

"Do I need to go through such lengths to harm you?" replied Edward calmly as he placed the blood away. "As I said before, I'm just studying your blood to see if I can discover where your Metamorphmagus ability comes from."

After saying that, he took out a bag full of coins. "Here is your reward. There should be enough Galleons inside for you to be considered a wealthy wizard among some small family."

After his transaction with Tonks, Edward talked with her for a while before leaving as he had another meeting with someone else. This time, it was with Daphne Greengrass' mother, Soleil. She was also another one of his lovers.

After making sure that her husband was not at home, he visited her. However, this time, both children were home. So, Edward had to place a Sleeping Charm on them after arriving.

After spending a few hours in bed with her, Edward started to think about his future. With all the women he is involved with, his weak wizard body is starting to not be able to keep up.

Luckily for him, when he was traveling in China, he acquired a potion that reinvigorated the kidney and made him a stud in bed. Edward spent many nights praising the Chinese Potion Master that invented that potion.

However, he was aware that if the number of ladies increased in the future, that this potion will not be enough. As such, his Body Modification Plan is of the utmost importance.

After reigning in his thoughts, Edward looked at the half-naked Soleil lying next to him. "All right, today, I will deal with your troubles."
