From Hogwarts to Strixhaven.

Chapter 293 Breaking Out
The Lonely Mountain dwarves' forge, which used the heat from the lava lake, was quickly completed, but Ivy didn't have time to try to create the creature a few more times.

Because he had to leave Lonely Mountain and even the entire world of Arda.

As an official ninth-ring spellcaster, the first thing he did after getting up every day was to cast the wish spell three times in a row.

The Nine Rings' wishing technique is the most powerful magic that any mortal being can use. With the arcane power of the spell system, the caster only needs to speak out the wish aloud, and the foundation of the real world can be changed according to the content of the wish.

Simply put, it is a wishing lamp.

Not only can the Wish spell copy any spell of 8th level or below, but it can also create many strange effects out of nothing.

And Ivy chose to cast three wishes in a row every morning just to gain attribute gains.

Using a wish multiple times in a row grants the caster a 1-5 point intrinsic bonus to one of their attributes. If the wishes are not cast consecutively, the bonuses do not accumulate.

Although Ivy only has one ninth-ring spell slot as a [Supreme Sorcerer], it is certainly possible to create a ninth-ring spell slot using spell points. What's more, the feat of [Versatile Spellcaster] allows Ivy to use two eighth-ring spell slots to cast ninth-ring spells.

Therefore, with the help of professional characteristics and expertise, Ivy can use up to three ninth-level spell slots a day.

So for six consecutive days, Ivy gained a +3 intrinsic bonus to all attributes, including the key spellcasting attributes, and both intelligence and charm reached 25 points.

On the seventh day, a satisfied Ivy decided to take a break and think about how to maximize the use of this spell.

There are a lot of interesting combinations in DND spells. For example, Ivy knows there is a nine-ring spell called Shape Change, which transforms the spell into a creature with a challenge level equal to or lower than the caster within an hour.

When the caster undergoes a physical change, although he cannot use the effects of various equipment, he can still retain his original intelligence, perception, and charm values, as well as the benefits from his professional race and various specialties.

This means that the wizard can use the dragon's body to fight and cast powerful spells to destroy the enemy.

It seems that although the nine-ring spell of shape change is powerful, it is far from being super powerful.

But the interesting part is that the mage can use the linkage between spells to completely solidify the short-term transformation brought about by the change of body shape.

Ivy is certainly not talking about using metamagic effects like [Persistent Spell].

It's a more interesting and whimsical approach.

As long as it is combined with the eighth-ring necromancer spell cloning, the caster's form can be completely transformed into another more powerful creature.

The effect of cloning is to use the caster's flesh and blood to create a backup body in a petri dish. As long as the clone is fully mature and the petri dish is not disturbed, the effect of this spell will last.

When the caster dies due to various accidents, if his soul is not controlled, it will automatically return to the cloning dish and live in a new body.

If a wizard casts this spell during a physical transformation, he can completely record his current state and use it as a clone of himself. For example, he can transform into a golden dragon and then cast a spell to clone himself, allowing a dragon to grow in the petri dish.

The only price the spellcaster has to pay is more complicated cultivation measures, longer cultivation time and larger culture dishes.

As long as the golden dragon clone is grown, the caster can transfer his soul to the new body at any time. In this way, a painless racial change can be completed, and the caster only needs two spell slots that can be restored every day, as well as some insignificant money and time.

However, the spell of shape change is not in the warlock's spell list. Even if Ivy really wants to perform this operation, he must raise his professional level of [Scribe Mage] to level 17.

In addition to being able to achieve effects similar to body replacement, the potential of magic is certainly more than that.

Ivy had learned the fourth-ring industrialization spell of Divine Craftsmanship a long time ago. If combined with the wish spell, it can copy some druid spells used to promote plant growth or double crop yields.

Then Ivy will be able to use this spell linkage very easily to destroy the crude crop economic ecology of an area.

Take the simplest cotton and linen as an example. The druid's third-level spell Plant Growth can make all plants within a radius of 100 feet grow wildly. If it is released with a duration of 8 hours, it can also make the land here more fertile, and the crops on this land will be harvested at twice the yield within a year.

And the magic of nature can instantly turn these cotton and linen into cotton cloth and linen cloth.

There is no need to explain what this means. After all, Ivy is an old Union Jack British man. How could he not know that this country once colonized almost the entire world for raw materials and markets to dump primary industrial products?

In the early industrial age, the British could only engage in "sheep eating man movement", enclosing land to produce raw materials, and then sending them to factories to be processed into cheap industrial products for export abroad.

But for a wizard like Ivy to produce primary industrial products, the raw materials are just some seeds, and even the production cycle is calculated in days. The amount of cotton and linen produced in a day depends on the number of spell slots.

Therefore, it is very easy for a smart mage to ruin the economy of a region or even a country. Only the lowest-level mages would work hard every day to make a living.

As a noble nine-ring spellcaster, Ivy naturally couldn't use the wish spell to do such a tasteless thing, but there must be more interesting spell combinations. That's why Ivy had to calm down and think about the various prospects of the wish spell.

The only trouble is that each time you release a wish, you have to pay 5000 experience points as a price, otherwise you will have to bear the cost of reducing your strength to 3 points and a 33% chance of losing the power to release the wish.

After using the wish spell eighteen times in a row, all the experience points Ivy had gained through the [Splendid Wonder] were completely used up, and he couldn't even use it to raise the career level of [Bard] by one level.

But compared to the benefit of adding 3 to all attributes that Ivy gained, this consumption is not a big deal at all.

A new day began, and looking at his warlock spell slots that had all been restored, Ivy couldn't help but feel itchy.

Casting prayers for six consecutive days will always create some inertia.

After thinking it over, Ivy decided to use the wish to simulate the priest's divine power.

Ilúvatar, the only god in the world of Arda, is a god with obvious preferences. Since He is willing to share advanced knowledge such as the Words of Creation with Ivy, He must have a good impression of him. Moreover, Ivy now has the buff status called "Edain", which can be regarded as a layer of adopted son's skin, and it is highly likely that he will not anger him.

Even though the Numenorians had already said the slogan "Conquer Aman and capture the Creator alive", Ilúvatar did not punish them. It was not until they actually set foot on the land of Aman and after the collective pleading of the Valar that Ilúvatar turned the entire world of Arda into a sphere and completely destroyed the Kingdom of Numenor. It seems that He is very tolerant of humans.

Besides, Ilúvatar is a benevolent god, and Ivy hasn't done anything obviously taboo on His territory. It should be okay to just make a phone call and chat and discuss magic, right?

Even if we don’t talk about magic, it’s nice to talk about music!
This great god even created the world by composing and playing music, so his musical attainments must be very high.

If He is willing to give Ivy some pointers on the Bard aspect, wouldn't that be a huge win?
Ivy immediately mobilized her magic power to complete the spell and loudly expressed her wish: "I want to have a chat with the One God, Eru Ilúvatar! I can use the divine magic!"

The power of the prayer did not cause any strange visions or lights. Ivy only felt that his body was rising infinitely. Almost in an instant, he passed the peak of Lonely Mountain, passed the clouds in the sky, passed the sun, moon and stars in the sky, and entered a land of nothingness.

Ivy stretched out his hand and clenched his fist. He was very familiar with this feeling. This was his own Astral Body. Some powerful mages could travel between many universes with their Astral Body alone, but Ivy couldn't do that now. Being able to appear in the form of Astral Body when casting certain spells that required entering the "transmission" state was almost the limit of what he could do.

He looked around at the space, then raised his head to look at the only source of light.

It was a human figure shrouded in soft white light. It was called a human figure, but it was actually just the result of Ivy's perception being automatically processed. Looking more closely, it felt like it was just a pattern similar to a human figure composed of some abstract geometric shapes.

It was just a moment of trance, and those geometric figures disappeared, replaced by an extremely real existence - a glowing old man with white hair, white beard and white robe.

Ivy quickly lowered his head. Even though he had already stepped halfway into the threshold of legend, Ilúvatar was still an unfathomable and unattainable existence to him.

"Respected Ilúvatar, I am Ivy Dum, and I salute you." Ivy performed a human etiquette.

Among Ilúvatar's many children, he liked humans, who had a short lifespan, the most. Perhaps this action could win Ivy some favor.

"Hello, Notes from another world." Before the tall old man opposite opened his mouth, his voice had already spread throughout the void.

Ivy breathed a sigh of relief. Being able to communicate was already half the battle.

"I have a few questions to ask. Please help me solve them, respected Ilúvatar." Ivy stated her purpose.

The white-haired old man on the opposite side raised his hand and motioned Ivy to continue. "How did you create the world?" Ivy asked.

"You already know it very clearly." The old man in white replied.

Yes, after being born from nothing, he created the gods with his own fragments of thoughts, and then led them to sing in the void. When all the gods cooperated with each other, he led them to sing an unprecedented theme together. Ivy had seen it in the Silmarillion. The book reads not much different from the myths in the Old Testament, and is even more specific than the chapter in the Old Testament describing the creation of the world by Brother Ye. At least Ivy remembered that the world of Arda was born from the Great Music. Unlike the Old Testament, Brother Ye really got everything he wanted in Genesis, without any difficulty at all.

But, can’t the process be clearer? How was the piece composed and what is the specific pitch?
The old man in white had no intention of explaining, and Ivy knew that he wouldn't get any more if he asked any more, so he had to change the question.

"Can you talk about your understanding of music?" Ivy asked again.

"Everything is in the music, and the music has a beginning and an end." The white-bearded old man replied, "Music from another world, you should compose your own music, not mine."

Ivy certainly understood that he had to keep running along the endless road of magic, but it was also important to find some reference materials.

By now he had realized that Ilúvatar was unwilling to talk more about the creation of the world, so Ivy could only change the topic.

"How did I get here?" Ivy asked for the third time. Until now, he still didn't understand how he entered the world of Arda.

The kind and gentle old man finally had a new expression on his face, which was a smile: "Notes from another world, it's time to put a rest to your movement here. Let me take you away."

Although Ivy has been able to gain coordination with the wizarding world through the Hogwarts warlock and return there via teleportation, there is still some time before the end of the semester, so Ivy is not in a hurry to go back. Besides, he only has to catch up with the sixth grade final exam, which is not difficult for Ivy at all.

But the God of Creation in front of him suddenly said that he would send him back. What a terrifying thing it was.

It's like you go to your gay friend's house to play games after school, but his kind mother suddenly offers to take you home.

Ivy still has a lot of things he wants to do in the world of Arda. Now he has no worries about food and clothing, and he doesn't have to sleep in the wild. He can do whatever he wants, so why should he go back to Hogwarts so early?

"Can I refuse?" Ivy asked carefully, "I can go back by myself now... No need to bother you."

Ilúvatar did not respond, but continued to smile.

"Okay." Ivy knew there was no hope, so he had to agree.

Ilúvatar waved his hand, and a meteor shot out from the endless dark void and soon came to Ivy.

At first, Ivi thought that it was a gift from Ilúvatar, but when he looked closer, he was shocked.

Because the person wrapped in the starlight was actually himself!

The proud, confident and handsome Slytherin wizard.

At first, Ivy thought that Ilúvatar had directly dragged his body from the Lonely Mountain here, but when he followed the connection between the astral body and his original body, he saw that Ivy in the Lonely Mountain was sitting upright on the bed.

Ivy couldn't help but feel his breath catch. "This is my body? And the one below was created by you?"

This is the only possibility.

Ivy knew very well that her race was a simple yet powerful human variant that could choose specialties at level 1, not an Eden.

Although the 6-point attribute blessing of the Eden people is also simple and strong, it is different after all.

Until just now, Ivy thought that the status of the Eden people was some kind of special world BUFF, but now it seems that they are the original humans of the Arda world.

It was made by Ilúvatar himself. No wonder he could ban whatever spellcasting ability of Ivy he wanted! Isn't he clear about his own creation?

Now he was leaving the world of Arda. However, Ivy couldn't even be considered to have entered the world of Arda, after all, his body had always been in the infinite void! Only his soul moved with the body of the Edain created by Ilúvatar. In any case, Ivy must return to his original body, otherwise what if Ilúvatar chased him across several worlds?

Ivy is not the God of Creation, so how can he know whether the only God of the world of Arda has the power to cross the multiverse.

Ilúvatar nodded, confirming Ivy's guess.

Ivy's astral body was agitated, reflecting his inner restlessness. He had no resistance to returning to his own body, but was very grateful to Ilúvatar for returning his body to him. If He hadn't said anything, Ivy would definitely have returned to Hogwarts with an Eden body. In a non-original body, he didn't know if wizard magic could still be used.

At least Ilúvatar was an upright god, and he had no intention of hiding anything from Ivy from the beginning. Otherwise, Ivy would not have gotten away with anything.

It was a pity that his 18 wishes consumed 5000 experience points. Those attribute points were actually added to the Edenian's body. Even if the three attributes of perception, intelligence and charm could return to the original body with the soul, the attribute points added to strength, agility and constitution would be wasted. Not to mention that when Ivy upgraded before, he also deliberately added a few points of agility!

Ivy's face darkened, and he could only comfort himself a little in his heart. Anyway, he had the Tome of Destruction in his hand, and those attribute points could be regained. It was just a waste of some experience points, so he didn't need to worry about it.

"Are you worried about the magic you released these days?" Ilúvatar asked in a statement tone, "I am also quite worried."

“The distortion of the music caused by that magic is too obvious. Although it is not very important, it always makes me feel out of harmony.” Ilúvatar said, “If there are gods like me in other worlds you go to, it is better not to overuse it.”

Before Ivy could think of how to answer, Ilúvatar used means beyond his comprehension to move the Edain who remained in the Lonely Mountain into this void of darkness. Along with Ivy's body, the golden horn also rose up. The unicorn was chewing some grass roots in its mouth, and it should have been eating before.

Looking at the tall old man in white and the two Ivies in front of him, Jinjiao couldn't help but reveal a very confused expression. He tilted his head and didn't move, looking like he was frozen.

A burst of starlight suddenly burst out from Ivi's Eden body, and then all of it poured into his original body.

"I have copied the power you asked for from the world and given it to you. You don't have to worry about it anymore," Ilúvatar explained.

Ivy only thought for a moment before choosing to believe what He said, and then immediately asked, "What do you want?"

"I created humans and gave them the ultimate gift - death. But even I cannot foresee what happens to humans after they die. But right in front of me is a human who has returned from the unknown. I really want to know how many variables you can bring to my grand movement. Your movement has only come to a rest here, but it has not yet ended. I look forward to your more interesting future."

Ilúvatar had finished speaking, and Ivy's astral body flew uncontrollably to his original body. All the equipment on the Eden people was taken off one by one and put into the Grimoire of Destruction that automatically appeared in Ivy's hand.

"I will seal this Edain's body. If you come again next time..." Ilúvatar didn't finish his words, but Ivy understood it all.

To put it simply, it means "If you come to my place to play, you have to follow my rules. I expect you to give a high-quality performance, but the performance equipment must be provided by me."

Although the rules of Ilúvatar were transparent and fair, Ivy still felt a little scared. After all, he had no idea what means Ilúvatar had used. He had clearly started from Hogwarts, and the next second after the teleportation ended, he was already standing in the Ogre Forest. There was no interruption in his consciousness, let alone realizing that his body had been swapped.

Until now, Ivy still couldn't understand why there was such a big flaw in the teleportation to another world.

Fortunately, he crashed into the world of Arda and flew into the hands of the good god Ilúvatar. If Ivy had encountered some big demon or some evil creature that fed on pain, he would not know whether he would have a tomorrow.

This time when I go back, I must study the magic that can allow me to travel safely in the multiverse, otherwise I will never travel far, otherwise I will do something like this every time, which will scare people to death.

The Nine-Ring Spellcaster is nothing in the hands of Ilúvatar, and Ivy thinks it's no big deal to be a little more survivable.

At least until there is a way to resurrect, Ivy can no longer take risks.

He still has to pursue the end of magic, and he can't give up when he is just starting out.

Somehow, Ivy actually developed a little empathy for Voldemort, who was afraid of death. Although he did not feel that death was always chasing him like Voldemort did, he did try to avoid it because it would affect his pursuit of magic.

Ivy returned to his original body and didn't even have time to say goodbye before he was pulled by some force into the endless darkness. He knew that he had already embarked on the return journey. The glowing human figure and the prosperous world below him disappeared, and Ivy began a lonely journey.
