The Dark Multiverse was sothing he ca upon back in Primordial Earth when reading comics. It refers to a group of infinite tilines where everything goes wrong.
In the normal multiverse, good and bad things coexist–similar to Yin and Yang. However, in the Dark Multiverse, nothing ever goes correctly; only pain, death, and suffering exist.
And because of its nature, the most powerful and cruelest entities live in the Dark Multiverse. It can be considered the most dangerous place in the entire universe.
"I did not expect the concept of Dark Multiverse to exist," committed Morgana, who shared senses with him. She did not contain her excitent, "I cannot fathom how far our understanding of the multiverse will reach after studying it."
She already imagines the papers the Empire will publish after studying this Dark Multiverse. There will be theories involving Space-Ti, new understandings of matter and energy, advancent in Dark and Black Magic and Negative Emotions, and even more profound research into Cause and Effect–especially Negative Karma.
And these things were only the tip of the iceberg.
"Master, I have to say, your luck has been excellent recently," comnted the little elf as she gave him a thumbs up.
"Too good, I would say," replied Edward.
"You an?"
Edward nodded. His luck has always been excellent, maybe a perk from his reincarnation from Primordial Earth. And rlin even admitted this was one of the reasons he accepted him as his student.
And Edward knew of his outrageous luck after discovering the hole leading to the void that the Magus Race left in Rowena's tiline. That hole was the only reason he could create Omniversal Travel while only being a Tier 3.
Otherwise, he would have to wait until Tier 10 before he even had a chance at success. According to the many simulations he ran, if he did not discover that Void Crack, his research would lead him to discover other planes.
As such, he would have escaped the plane where Harry Potter was located but never escaped the entire universe, also called the Astral Realm.
Edward knew having access to the knowledge of other planes would fasten the Empire's developnt. However, it would never compare to the current state where he can use power systems from different universes; where he can study the laws or authorities of other universes.
As for why his luck has been on the rise lately, even without the use of the Felix Felicis? He guessed it was Cronai's doing. To ensure the Empire's developnt and the Gods' eventual downfall, she blessed the Arcane Empire with trendous luck.
And this act resulted in the birth of countless geniuses from different fields; it allowed the Empire to survive dangerous situations, have an easier ti succeeding in difficult problems, and many other benefits.
"In that case, we need to keep a good relationship with her," nodded Morgana, and Edward agreed with this sentint.
"Let's check out this Dark Multiverse," comnted Edward, who cast an Astral Projection Spell. There were two main types of Astral Projections; the first was the soul leaving its dinsion and surviving without the body.
However, this version requires Tier 6, when the soul is tangible and can survive a few months after the body is destroyed without help.
And the second type involved using soul energy to shape a body before transferring so of the consciousness into this energy body. The advantage of this thod is the caster will not be affected if sothing happens to the projection. However, the downside is the projection is incredibly weak compared to the soul or the main body.
Edward's Astral Projection opened a portal to Earth in one of the infinite tilines of this Dark Multiverse.
As soon as he arrived, Edward sensed things were different; he felt this suffocating depression as his mind was overwheld with negative thoughts and emotions.
"This place is disgusting to live in," comnted Morgana. "Is that nuclear waste I detected?"
Edward agreed with her words, so he decided to be swift and efficient. He cast a spell that allowed him to see places where great destiny resides.
Then, his projection teleported to that destination while remaining invisible to the naked eye.
After appearing, he saw a group of people hiding underground. These people looked miserable, malnourished, and their eyes were devoid of any life or hope.
They ate their food in silence, and the few who spoke muttered with the lowest voice and were quick in their conversation.
"Look," said Morgana suddenly, and when Edward looked in her direction, his pupil flashed in surprise. He saw Ron Weasley holding a bottle of vodka and chugging it like water.
Edward quickly noticed he had a tal prosthetic for an arm. Then, not long afterward, soone suddenly apparated, making everybody alert; their reaction was almost visceral until they realized who it was. Then, they sighed in relief.
"Harry?" asked Edward, as the latter was too difficult to identify. Half of his face had a terrible scar, while the rest burned completely.
"How did it go?" asked Ron in a gruff voice.
"The result was the sa," replied Harry, his voice worse than gravel. His vocal cord obviously suffered significant damage, most likely burned.
Rone did not respond as he expected this. He took a sip of his drink before taking out a locket from his shirt, opening it to reveal a picture–Hermione.
"Only one left," he said, his eyes full of determination. "We only need to destroy the last Horcrux before we can kill this fucker. Then, I can finally join her."
Harry looked at his friend, hiding the complication he felt deep in his eyes. It was his mission to kill Voldemort and save the people of this world. However, he also knew what awaited his friend once he achieved his mission.
A small part of him wished they had never found that last Horcrux so his friend could continue accompanying him. However, he also knew being selfish in this situation was impossible.
And it was not only because the world needed it. He knew his friend was only enduring out of sheer desire for revenge. If he cannot have his revenge after an extended period, his mind will no longer be able to bear it.
By then, who knows what he will do?
Furthermore, he was also tired.
"The wizards in South Arica might have discovered sothing. In a few days, I will go visit them."
"Good," replied Ron blandly.
Edward and Morgana calmly watched this situation, wondering what happened to turn these two into this shape.
"Did you find out?" asked Edward, who knew the little elf was reading their mories.
"Yes. Voldemort was the final winner in the battle at Hogwarts. Longbottom never killed Nagini, and he went on to conquer the wizarding world before enslaving the muggles.
"He then killed all the "mudbloods" of the magical world and 40% of muggles. The remaining 60% were enslaved. And as you can guess, Hermione was on the casualty list."
Edward sighed as he imagined what these two went through. He shook his head as he realized that most people he knew and cared for were dead in this tiline.
"I'm guessing there is no version of in this tiline?"
"From their mories, they've never heard of you."
"I either died under Voldemort or so other way. Or, this tiline derived from the main tiline where Edward Bones died as a child during the First Wizarding War," he analyzed.
"Boss, what do you want to do? Do you want to help them?"
"From what I know about Voldemort, he would hide Nagini in a safe place after a few assassinations attempts.'
He knew the fear of death was deeply ingrained in the Dark Lord's soul.
"Find the location and give it to them," ordered Edward.
