Harry Potter But AU??? - Chapter 157
HARRY’S POV
Researching the magical eyeball really took all night, and that’s really long considering the first thing Harry did was using the time turner to have more time.
The reason was simple.
The glass had over 3000 runes in it.
It didn’t take long for Harry to figure out how the master who made this did it, and yet he couldn’t believe there is a wizard who takes the simple solution to life’s problems.
The man who made it made the glass eyes larger, house like large, craved runes on it and then made it return to its original size, miniaturizing the runes with it.
After Harry made the eyeball big enough, he started studying the runes on it.
Studying an artifact’s runes isn’t simple, especially if there are a lot of them.
You need to study each rune separately, then each scheme, and then how every one of the schemes reacted to one another.
If that wasn’t enough, if there are more then one language in the artifact you need to study how they react to one another.
Not to mention even the shape and size of the object has effects on how it works.
Doing all of that can’t be done in a night, no matter how smart you are.
Luckily, Harry had a lot of AI helpers to accelerate the process.
First he made sure they scan all the runes, the shape, and measure the size to create a digitized version of the product.
Then, while they check all the runes and rune schemes affect, Harry focused on the biggest reason the eye is so unique, it is goblin made.
It is known to be impossible for a wizard-made magical artifact to change sizes as the runes will always cancel each other out.
The runes’ way they look is how they work, the belief in those shape to be magical is why they work, which is why even they don’t look right they don’t work.
Of course, a goblin somehow managed to work around it.
When Harry held the eyeball, even before he started to research it, he immediately knew it is goblin made, it has the same feeling any one of his products held, something other magical objects didn’t, as if the artifact itself was magical, instead of having magic attached to it.
The goblins called it the aura of life, and used it to separate true artifacts and the products of other races.
Once the AIs started to study the runes Harry looked into the eyeball.
Interestingly, when he used the methods the Ragnok taught him to identified materials he found out it is actually made from a metallic glass and not the usual glass it would have been made of, other then that, he was able to find the affect the goblin who made this product gave it- layers.
The adaptability the eye ball took regarding the runes was making the glass into layers, each of them have one rune scheme that doesn’t affect the others.
It was surprisingly a lot like the folding Harry make in his creation only in Harry’s he make them into one product and in here there are multitude of products connecting into one, which when they grow they become one, so you never notice there are multiple layers.
That made Harry excited as he thought this eyeball is the first third level product he has seen, not including the invisibility cloak which he still can’t seem to figure out how to study it, only to be disappointed when figuring out it was a semi-third level not a true one.
The second stage he is on is about putting your intent into your creations. With the peak reaching when you put your beliefs into your artifacts.
The third level is when you can put other people’s intents and beliefs into your creation by other methods of magic, with its peak by using the world’s belief in your products, making them immortal and unbreakable until the world is destroyed.
No one truly knows what the fourth level is, though, it is believed to be about changing the world’s belief as you wish.
No matter how much Harry use hybrids of goblin’s methods and wizard’s, he hasn’t managed to reach the third level, hell, the only reason he is progressing to the peak of the second level where his products would be considered semi-third level is that his rune creating is strengthening his belief and his ability to use it.
The reason the AIs can create copies of the products he invented is that he leaves them on the stage of intent, if they were inserted with beliefs it would have been impossible.
The eyeball isn’t a third level because the goblin who made it used only his belief and intent to create the product, even the runes didn’t manage to reach a stage where he use people’s belief.
After Harry finished studying the eyeball, he had the AIs to explain to him each scheme and to l their interaction with different as he quickly read the runes in it.
Most of the schemes were basic, giving the eye the ability to move, to see 360 around, to see hidden things, no matter if they are behind walls, enchantments or spells, etc…
There were only two schemes Harry had never seen before.
The first was one that Harry believed gave the eye ball the ability to see The Invisibility cloak.
It was about seeing the truth, it didn’t let the user to truly see through the cape of Death, but, as Harry checked, it gave the user the ability to see magical affects as magical.
It reminded him of Luna’s sight as she explained it, though less as accurate, letting the person only see vague magical aura an object has.
If the eye sees the cloak it doesn’t let you know who is behind it, but you know something is there.
As for the second scheme, Harry was even more shocked about it, even though he really shouldn’t be.
It’s ability was to connect the eyeball to the brain.
The one who made it must have researched the eye and nerves for a long time as Harry knew it to be the only magical eyeball to grant sight in the world, which is the reason why Moody is known as mad eye.
By the time Harry finished studying the eyeball he had to return it as he was under oath.
Giving it back to Crouch, the man took one look at him and said “wow, you really pulled an all nighter didn’t you?” He then chuckled “Not that it mattered, even the dark lord couldn’t understand how someone made the runes be one on top the other and still work. Get some sleep.”
He said before slamming the door in his face.
Smiling, Harry went back to the ROR, happy that he not only has a direction on his recreation on Luna’s sight, but that the scheme connecting nerves will make his life easier when he creates Voldemort’s body.
