After absorbing all of Voldemort's magical knowledge and research, Edward finally focuses on the Invisible Cloak that he borrowed from Harry Potter. Which was one of the Deathly Hallows.
After using his Alchemy Eye Charm on the cloak, Edward only came up with a bunch of blanks. None of his knowledge could help dissect the material or how the cloak was made.
However, Edward did discover very powerful energy or a mysterious power in this cloak, then an idea came to him. To verify this idea, Edward had to also examine the Resurrection Stone that was part of Gaunt's family ring.
So, he apparated to the old shack, temporarily disarmed the Enchantment Protections, and took the ring out. This time it was easy for Edward to remove the ring as he knew what kind of curse that Voldemort placed on the ring.
Using such knowledge, he also temporarily disarmed the power of that curse and removed the Resurrection Stone from the ring. After that, he left after returning everything to its original state.
Back home, Edward then started to analyze this Stone and how it was made. However, his Alchemy Eye also did not provide him with much information except for the fact that the material of the Resurrection Stone was nothing but a very common or regular stone.
The real reason that this stone had such tremendous power was only due to the fact of the mysterious power inside of it.
Then, Edward started to remember the [Tale of The Three Brothers]. According to this story, the Resurrection stone was made from a random stone that Death took around the river, the Elder Wand was made from some random wood taken from a tree that was nearby.
Only the Invisibility Cloak was different; only the cloak came from a part of Death's body.
With his previous conversation with Death, Edward had already determined that there was some truth to this story. By that logic, the only reason that these things became so powerful is due to the power of Death itself.
"The Power of Law?" muttered Edward to himself. Ever since he saw that strange power in the Invisible Cloak, he theorized that possibility.
Unfortunately for him, even if he knew the answer, he could not change anything. Edward has not even come close to the level of controlling the Law, so he is somewhat helpless when it comes to either studying or recreating an Alchemy item on the level of the Deathly Hallows.
However, Edward was not that bothered as he still had plenty of room to grow. Plus, he still had some use for these Deathly Hallows.
He first took out his wand and pointed at these two Hallows. Using his magical powers, he started to activate the Power of Law inside of them; it took a lot of his magic powers before succeeding. A dark light suddenly came from the Hallows, then Edward found himself inside a White Room with a tall hooded figure in front of him.
It was Death, and Edward knew that his plan had succeeded after seeing the menacing figure once again.
"Wizards, why are you summoning me again, didn't we already reach an agreement?"
"You are correct," responded Edward as he looked at this God up and down. "This time, I came to make another deal with you."
"What deal?" asked Death a little intrigued.
"An exchange for knowledge about the soul, death, time, and space."
"Interesting," replied Death, who suddenly approached Edward, standing only less than a meter away from. Its figure was more than 15 feet tall, and It was quite intimidating. "And what do you offer in exchange?"
"The Soul of Voldemort."
"Laughable. Why would I want the soul of a person that is destined to die."
Edward frowned after hearing this, then he continued: "It's true that he is destined to die, but his soul will never belong to you due to what he did with the Horcruxes. Once he dies, he is destined to be forever eliminated, not able to enter the afterlife or forever staying in limbo.
"However, what I propose is to gather his split soul, piece them back together and hand them over to you."
Death became silent for a brief moment after hearing this proposition. It was truly interesting in the soul of such a powerful wizard. However, Edward was right as he was destined not to receive it since Voldemort had doomed himself when he split his soul into so many pieces.
"I can agree to your proposal, but I have certain conditions," replied Death after contemplating.
"Please, elaborate."
"For one, I cannot give you all my knowledge about souls and death."
"Why not?" asked Edward with a deep frown on his face.
"I am the literal embodiment of the Laws of Death that govern this entire universe, can you fathom the amount of knowledge I have regarding the soul and death? And what repercussions would it have if such knowledge was in the hands of a mortal wizard?"
Edward had a deeper frown on his face after hearing this. He could probably understand Death's meaning. Its understanding of the soul and death probably reached the level of Law, so it would never give such knowledge away--especially just for the sake of Voldemort's soul.
"So, what is in it for me then?"

"I will give you all my knowledge regarding space, time, and dimensions. It should be more than enough to finish constructing your little Gate."
Edward was not that surprised that Death knew about the Gate of World. As probably the strongest existence in the Harry Potter Universe, there is probably nothing that he could not know or hide from his sight.
Edward guessed that if it was not due to the severe restriction placed on it, Death should be able to do anything it pleases in this Universe.
"That's it? That's all I get?" asked Edward, a little unwilling.
"What else do you want? To control the power of Law? In this world, there have been only two people that could control the power of Law: Merlin and Morgan Le Fey. However, it had nothing to do with their talents or understanding of magic," replied Death calmly.
'So, that power I felt in those Deathly Hallows was indeed the power of Law,' secret thought Edward, however, his face did not show any abnormal reactions.
"What do you mean by those words," asked Edward instead. He was truly intrigued by these two legendary figures.
"These are not secrets that you should be privy to," replied Death in a mysterious manner. An act which frustrated Edward, well, at least, he looked that way on the surface.
He could guess some of the details of what Death was talking about.
If you think about it, those two people are very suspicious. Throughout countless universes and dimensions, there exist either their legends or a version of themselves. Why is that? What made them so special that their existence can reach across multiple multiverses and dimensions?
Are those different versions of them a clone of a truly powerful being? Are they somehow connected? And how powerful one has to be to reach the level of existing in countless dimensions?
Edward has at some point pondered these issues. And he believed that maybe one day, he will find the answer to these questions.
Meanwhile, Death was enjoying itself after seeing the look of annoyance on Edward's face. Their last meeting left a bitter taste on its mouth, so it was enjoyable, making Edward uncomfortable.
"So, do we have a deal or not?" asked Death.
"No problem, but we still have to sign a binding magical contract."
Edward took out his contract. Unfortunately for him, Death was able to see through all his little tricks with the demon language and erased them. An act which made Edward's face a little ugly, however, Death was enjoying the entire process.
After the contract was signed, Edward then asked for a favor:
"I need you to recreate a replica of the Resurrection Stone. It does not need to have any ability, but it must look the same as the original one."
"No problem," responded Death. Then, with a wave of his hand, another stone looking exactly like the original Resurrection Stone appeared. However, Edward did not sense any mysterious power in it.
"I am guessing that you are going to use this stone to plan the death of the greatest white wizard of this century," said Death.
"How do you know?" replied Edward with a look of shock on his face.
"Hehe, mortal, you could not possibly fathom the depth of my powers."
Edward had a serious look on his face after hearing this, then he took out the fake stone and disappeared from the white room. However, he could still hear the sound of Death laughing echoing as he left.
After returning to reality, the somber and scared look on Edward's face was gone, replaced by a deep sneer.
As a powerful Occlumens, he can easily control all his emotions, so how could he act in such a way in front of Death?
After taking a seat, he started thinking about all the things he learned from Death during their conversations.
'First thing, it's that Death has the power to predict someone's time of death. This was shown when he knew that both Voldemort and Dumbledore would die. However, this power should not be absolute.
'If I guess correctly, the Peverell Brothers in the story should have died while crossing that bridge, but they somehow manage to evade their Demise. That's the reason that Death showed itself and used the Deathly Hallows to lure them to their deaths.
"Second, although Death is a powerful God, it still has a range of human emotions. He can get angry, frustrated, and so on. Not to mention his massive ego and his desire to show his power.'
Edward then spent a few hours thinking about his conversation with Death and reviewing all the information that he might have unknowingly released.
After that, Edward entered his Mind Palace where all the books he had read appeared in the form of a giant library. The Library was more like a city instead of an actual library due to how vast it was. Everything was perfectly categorized and Edward only needed to think of the book or knowledge he needed to review and it would appear in front of him.
He then located a book written by him with the simple title [An Analysis of the God of Death] and started updating it with all the information that he received today from their discussion.
