Harry Potter: Dimensional Wizard

Chapter 546: Will Tempering Method

Edward soon arrived at Chris’s lab, which had been waiting for him since he sent prior notification of his arrival.

“Chris, how are things?”

“Very well, Your Majesty.”

“It seems married life suits you well. How about? Consider having more than one wife?” joked Edward.

“I don’t want to turn into a mental patient that has gone crazy,” swiftly replied Chris. Who was his wife? The Chief of the National Bureau of Mental Health, one of the best Tier 8 Spiritual Arcanists in the world–Shenice King.

If he dared step out of line, he was sure the government would soon find him with a shattered psychic with no proof that his wife was involved.

“Haha, it’s good she’s keeping you in check and not letting the fame and glory get to your head,” nodded Edward, who also knew how scary a Spiritual Arcanist like Shenice King was.

“True to that.” Although he was a man of exceptional will, it did not mean he could not change and be corrupt by power, wealth, and fame.

“Enough of the chitchat, and let’s get to business.”

“As we should,” nodded Chris as he led Edward to his office. Without wasting time, he began to show his research results.

“As you already knew, my research direction was to create a perfect method that would allow Arcanist to temper their Willpower. My first attempt was the normal stuff, using illusions to create a vivid world that would torment the Arcanists and temper their will.

“Sadly, this method had a variety of results and many side effects, including permanent damage to my subjects. Some people responded to experiencing hardship, while others completely shut down.”n))0Velb1n

Chris showed the data while explaining.

“My second attempt was to use battles to temper the will. I tried this method after learning about the Haki System, but the results also varied. Some people responded positively, but most failed to achieve anything.

“My third attempt was a simple meditation method. By analyzing the correlation between willpower and the soul, spirit, mind, and memories, I created a meditation technique to nurture a person’s willpower slowly.

“Sadly, this method was too slow. It could take thousands of years to increase the Willpower by a factor of one, and the higher the number, the longer the time required.”

“According to my idea, the Planet Will is not enough. Having a Galaxy Will and even a Universe Will would be better. However, if it does not exist, maybe we can artificially create one.”

Edward gave him an odd look, and Chris picked up on it, “I was right? There is a galaxy and a Universe will?”

“Universe Will and the ultimate purpose of increasing Willpower is to overwhelm it and force it to hand over control over the fundamental rules of the universe.”

Chris looked at him in shock, “Is that even possible?”

“Yes, I’ve done, and the requirements are a minimum eight on the Willpower Scale.”

“I see. If we, Arcanists, want to be on the same level as the Gods, we must control [Authority]. However, the path of faith is not for us, so we need an alternative method.”

“That’s correct.”

Chris sighed, “I salute, Your Majesty, for your forward thinking.”

He could not imagine how long this man had been planning the rise of the Path of Arcane and how willing he was to share such power with so many people. Such a mind deserves his respect.

Edward accepted the salute and continued, “I’m unaware of any Galaxy Will, but we can artificially manufacture one. Your will-tempering method could first involve a planetary will, then a star system will, and a galaxy will before the final confrontation with the universe will.

“However, you should create safety measures to ensure the sanity of our people when using this method.”

Confronting a Planet Will was not a simple endeavor despite the fact that a Tier 6 Arcanist can easily destroy a planet. The Planet Will contains the thoughts and memories of billions of people, if not more. If an Arcanist was not careful, their soul could be corrupted after coming into contact with so many people murmuring together.

It’s possible for them to suffer a state similar to the Gods’ Faith Poisoning, where they suffer personality splits like a schizophrenic patient, or their main personality is forcefully changed into something else.

“I will,” nodded Chris, who knew the Empire’s motto of pushing the boundary while maintaining a paranoid level of cautiousness in case something happened.

“If you need anything, you know who to contact.”

Chris knew he had a lot of work to do, so he did not waste time. He must first access most of the Empire on the Planet Will research before proceeding on the next step to recreate it on a galaxy size.

While this part of the project is going on, he must create a perfect method to temper Willpower using the Planet Will.

“Lots of work to do,” he muttered with a smile. He called his wife to tell her he would be late today but promised to return home. Then, he continued his work.
