The Immortal Who Walked Out of the Nuclear Explosion

Steam billowed, obscuring the view over the boiling sea with a thin mist.

But even so, it couldn't hide that dazzling radiance.

In Dumbledore's eyes at this moment, Roger no longer resembled a human, but rather a god from ancient legends!

Even someone as powerful as he couldn't help but be deeply shaken.

"Headmaster Dumbledore, you don't need to worry. I've already set up confusion spells beforehand. The energy fluctuations won't leak out too much either. The Muggle world will at most think it's a volcanic eruption at the bottom of the sea."

Roger had once developed a magic within Hogwarts that could create and eliminate radiation.

Therefore, no Muggle detection instruments would be able to find any data related to nuclear explosion characteristics.

Not long after his voice fell, the giant of light and heat twisted its form again.

But this time, it wasn't a deformation, but a collapse.

Roger had said long ago that this technique was not stable enough and he could only use it for a very short period.

The light began to contract, the heat dissipated, and its semi-energetic, semi-material form transformed into pure substance.

Soon, a naked young wizard appeared in mid-air.

If someone who had observed the former Roger very closely were here, they would notice that the current Roger was completely different from when he was in the Middle East.

This difference was not just in strength and demeanor, but even his physique was vastly different.

The current Roger, whether it was the configuration ratio of his muscles and bones, his skin, internal organs, hair, or even every strand of DNA, was as exquisite as a masterpiece of divine craftsmanship.

Although he still retained the appearance of a carbon-based life form evolved from apes, in essence, he was already a completely different being.

From the moment he unleashed that technique, his very essence of life had undergone a transformation in another direction.

The instant his form reappeared, Roger reached out and drew a wisp of mist steaming from the sea surface. Using Transfiguration, he conjured a set of loose robes to cover his body.

This was why Roger was reluctant to display this technique. Although he was currently an 11-year-old child, being unclothed always made him feel a bit awkward.

"...Roger, that magic you just used was too dangerous." As Roger passed through the thin mist that obscured his vision, the first thing he saw was Dumbledore's extremely serious expression.

"Dangerous? Which one do you mean?" Roger tilted his head, looking puzzled.

"In my opinion, neither of them can be called 'dangerous'."

"Thermonuclear Fusion requires spellcasting materials as an aid. Otherwise, it's difficult for a wizard's mental strength to drive such a powerful explosion. If we're talking about true threat, it's not even as good as the Fiendfyre Curse, which can expand infinitely as long as there are combustibles around."

"If one has the ability to obtain materials, they could directly make a nuclear bomb, rather than using a fusion spell whose destructive range is even larger than its casting range." This kind of magic was something only Roger could handle. Others would likely be vaporized by direct contact with the fusion the moment a nuclear explosion occurred.

"As for the 'Plutonium Man,' he's not as strong as you imagine, Headmaster."

Roger could indeed use his fusion power to act like a boss in a special effects movie, like Godzilla, and wreak havoc on Earth.

He could slowly dismantle it, piece by piece, and completely sink the continental plate of an island nation into the sea.

But all of this was contingent on the world having no other wizards besides Roger.

Wizardry was a conceptual thing. The 'Plutonium Man' couldn't withstand killing curses with soul-damaging effects from those at Voldemort or Grindelwald's level… at least not yet.

This kind of thing, which could only be used strategically to bully the "Five Benevolent Sages" of Earth through deterrence, was not considered dangerous in Roger's eyes.

"Alright, let's stop focusing on these trivial matters and talk about the development of magic," Roger said with a bright smile.

Investing in Hagrid and Harry was an investment in the future, and it would take a long time before he saw any returns.

Dumbledore was a being on another level.

His mental power, his understanding and comprehension of magic, as well as his experience and connections, were all at the peak level in the wizarding world today.

If he were willing to join Roger's path, it would be a huge immediate boost.

Therefore, Roger hoped to shift Dumbledore's focus back to the path of magic.

"Trivial matters?" Dumbledore looked somewhat confused.

"Your transformation just now, isn't that what you wanted to show me?"

Roger shook his head: "Yes, but its focus is not on destructive power."

Having been stimulated by Grindelwald and Voldemort, Dumbledore had become overly sensitive to dangerous things, causing him to subconsciously overlook the important matters.

Next, Roger began to explain the intricacies to Dumbledore.

In fact, it wasn't complicated at all; it could be explained in a few sentences.

The Three-Dimensional Theory divided all things into the Self Dimension, the Medium Dimension, and the External Dimension.

What Roger had just done was to use his most proficient Transfiguration as his high-level Medium Dimension, and bind it deeply with his Self Dimension.

This binding, the moment Roger cast the spell, was even more profound than the binding between his body and soul.

In fact, Roger's body had been instantly vaporized by temperatures exceeding two hundred million degrees Celsius at the moment of thermonuclear fusion.

But this was insignificant to Roger.

Because from the moment he activated the Three-Dimensional Transfiguration, 'Transfiguration' became his self-carrier, not his physical body.

Roger was magic, and magic was Roger.

To be honest, the experience was quite extraordinary, but Roger's skills in this area were not yet mature, and he could only maintain his form as magic for a very short time.

Ultimately, it still has to return to the material.

Of course, even if Roger could transform his body into magic for a long time, he wouldn't maintain it for too long, because magic itself is a changeable method that is very easily influenced by the mind.

If he encountered an enemy stronger than himself, it would instead become a weakness.

Unless, one day in the future, he could break free from the shackles of magic and merge with something more stable.

Currently, Roger hadn't named this method, but in his memory, the closest term should be... Spirit of Magic? "Wait a moment." After hearing Roger's explanation, Dumbledore suddenly realized something was amiss.

"You mean, your current body is one you remade? Could it be..."

Dumbledore's eyes widened slightly, a look of disbelief in his gaze.

"Yes." Roger nodded, understanding his meaning.

"I have achieved that."

"Shedding the dependence on a physical body, complete material reconstruction."

"From this day forward, I have attained Material Immortality!"

Longevity, agelessness, immortality, indestructibility... the path to Eternal Life, whose end was unknown, he had finally taken the first true step today! According to his plan, the next step should be agelessness.
