Chapter 434 - Chapter 280 All is well

As I said, removing the astral copy isn't so much difficult as it is torturous, and it was necessary because I don't really know how the artifact works. No, the fact that it is designed to summon various entities to help the mage is a fact, especially since, as far as I can tell, there is a built-in security system.

As far as I can judge from the first results of the study-copying of the structures, the owner of the artifact enters into a preliminary contract with the summoned creature, something like a contract for the peaceful discussion of terms.

In addition, the structure has a complex block, which, like a cancerous tumor, is connected to everything at once, and this block does not allow even an attempt to summon chaotic and other dangerous entities. The creator of this masterpiece was a brilliant individual, and I would be very interested in talking to him or her. But back to what I said earlier: I don't know the sequence of the artifact's operations, or should I say "functions"?

In general, I assume that the artifact has a function of binding to the bearer as a mediator or anchor of the ritual, i.e. as long as the summoned creature will be on this planet, it will only be possible to remove the artifact by killing its master, or something like that. Do I need it? No, I don't need it, so I decided to make a copy of the structures first, then bring it to life, test it, and then use it. Just a copy. I won't let the original out of my hands now... well, after I've finished copying it.

For now, the artifact is in the underground room next to the one where my basilisks grow. I had to quickly make a copy of what I have in the "Sphere", i.e. a system of deep analysis, but originally it was designed exclusively for material physical substance, in this case I am interested in magical structures, so a sleepless night was spent on emergency finalization and expansion of the spectrum of "sensitivity".

This resulted in an overly massive system of "scanner-analyzer", which I was not the only one to realize, I was greatly assisted by Kin. It was easy for him, the spirit of earth and fire, to create stone columns of the exact shape and size I needed, not to mention the many patterns, hieroglyphs, recesses for crystals, and much more. In short, it was a lot of work.

 On the other hand, even though this analyzer turned out to be too massive and bulky, with a lot of complicated details, it was quite realistic to refine and improve it. Already now this thing is of great value. And a huge headache. Afterwards, when the complex was started, when the bracelet was lying on the stone slab and several rays of light were staring at it, and the incipient mental spirit that had moved from the amulet to the crystal was controlling the process, I went to rest.

And only after the rest, when my head began to boil normally, did I realize what I had done in this fit of creative madness. And so, without delay, I immediately ran around everyone who knew about my current work and forced them to take a vow of secrecy. If an outsider became aware of our possession of such a thing, we would simply be destroyed. Absolutely not.

The reason for my conclusions is not even worth thinking about, just remember how proud pureblood magical families are of their ancestral artifacts, how they boast of their antiquity, the level of forgotten and lost knowledge embodied in these values. What would happen if someone could copy such things? That's right, it came to me very quickly, so I moved very vigorously.

While I was busy with all this, Afiri took care of the girl in silence and without any extra requests from my side, and then Louis Simon arrived, who confirmed my conclusions about the girl, but he only waved his hands and said that there was nothing to be done. I did not argue with the respected doctor, nor did I explain my plans, I only asked him to stabilize the girl's condition and keep her as long as possible.

The wise doctor did not ask any unnecessary questions, but only reminded me that in France alone we have already signed more than three dozen contracts for the transplantation of artificial eyes, which I have not fulfilled in full. Not to mention that the rumors have already spread and Monsieur Simon is being approached by magicians from other magical countries, so we have to think of something.

I agreed with the man, but the transfer of my technology into the wrong hands is out of the question, and the fact that I don't have the ability to increase the production of artificial eyes, or many will have to wait — that's not my problem.

Before this opportunity arose, even such an ugliness as Moody's was openly envied, but they could not buy it, because the product is a one-off, almost unique. So let them wait, after all, I'm not stopping deliveries, I'm just not in a hurry, I'm not in a hurry.

It's a strange situation with medicine, if you think about it. Magic is a fairly accessible miracle in the hands of any creature gifted with it, but for some reason a lot of diseases, congenital and acquired deformities, and other things are not cured.

To be more precise, the local gifted do not have methods of using magic to cure congenital pathologies and diseases, which still occur, although very rarely, due to the presence of intrauterine correction of fetal development, or acquired injuries and diseases. I can not say "unfortunately" or with joy, but this question somehow did not affect me much before, or I was not interested in it, and in general medicine is not my profile, or rather not directly, because indirectly I can help in many ways.

And in general, being such an "alloy of talents", which I am, as if implies such wide opportunities. But that's not the point. The point is that, for some reason unknown to me, magical medicine is extremely limited, and you can often find yourself in a situation where a doctor just spreads his hands and advises you to ask for "mother magic". And that's not all.

It turned out that in Europe there is not a single institution of magical arts, which would professionally train magician-doctors at the level of universities of the simple world, at most — a school that just beeps cool. I was surprised by this discovery, chased this knowledge in my head, thought a little and threw it away — I already have enough worries for two lives ahead of me, where else to do medicine, in which, moreover, I know at the level of a confident user of analgin, paracetamol and eye drops? Britain is the cradle of "horses", and a horse, as you know, has a big head, respectively....

Because of the sharp "revival" in society — the consequence of the storming of the "factory of death", as well as the opening of all the discovered facts of simply monstrous atrocities of its masters, I could not miss the "moment", and involuntarily had to get into the local political kitchen, I could not forget about my affairs, my family and future clan.

In addition to the aforementioned, I had to take care of my prisoners, not miss the news from Lan and Junko in France, deal with the Malfoys and Hermione. With the last girl on the list, but not the least important, I decided to act without further delay.
