Future Vision and Interesting Findings (2)

After enduring an immeasurable number of 3D AVR simulations and text-based scenarios, Severus found himself both physically and mentally fatigued. His mind had been pushed to its limits, yet amidst the weariness, a sense of contentment enveloped him. Finally, he had discovered a potential solution to the pressing issue of broadcasting information safely. Moreover, the wealth of new knowledge, alternative perspectives, and insights he had acquired throughout his simulations promised to be invaluable in the long run.

His first pursuit led him to delve into the history of his maternal family, the esteemed House of Prince. The roots of this ancient lineage stretched back an astounding five millennia, making them one of the earliest established magical families in European history. Throughout the ages, they had gained notoriety for their adeptness in Dark Magic, intricate rituals, and powerful protective wards. However, their name also carried the stain of a notorious past—an infamous association with the business of assassination.

Around three millennia ago, the House of Prince suffered a monumental setback that sent shockwaves through the European magical community. Their audacious act of assassinating the Grand Wizard of the now-extinct European Wizard Association earned them the ire of many. Consequently, they became the target of a relentless hunt, with both magical authorities and surprisingly the Roman Empire's muggle government joining forces to ensure their capture and almost killed fifty percent of the family.

Forced into seclusion, they sought refuge in a secretive safehouse, biding their time for five centuries before reemerging into the open world. This time, they diverted their focus to the art of potion-making, yet they safeguarded their legacy within the depths of their hidden sanctuary—a place that eluded Severus's grasp due to time constraints and his urgent quest for a solution to the imminent danger he faced.

In another line of inquiry, Severus directed his simulations toward envisioning a scenario where he and his loved ones could find safety and solace in Italy during the tumultuous era of war. Consistently, the simulations returned with an encouraging answer—Voldemort neither possessed the capability nor the strategic intent to conquer all of Europe. Great Britain, being a formidable bastion against the Dark Lord's forces, proved to be challenging terrain for his crooked ambitions as his rival is none other than Albus Dumbledore.

However, as Severus explored the possibility of interfering in the conflict, an unexpected revelation surfaced. Surprisingly, opposition emerged from both the light and dark factions of Great Britain. Such was the nature of the British, always displaying a propensity for such contradictions. While they may disregard the havoc they wreak upon other countries, they vehemently resist any attempts by outsiders to do the same – both in the magical world and the muggle world. This realization underscored the potential for casualties among Severus's allies, an outcome he ardently wished to avoid.

Yet, amidst the complexities and challenges, a ray of hope shone through. Severus stumbled upon a remarkable solution for transmitting information and broadcasting from a safe distance. It involved a branch member of his family who had once ventured into the muggle world under the alias Guglielmo Marconi, renowned as the inventor of the radio. Astonishingly, before his demise, Marconi had compiled a wealth of knowledge on how to produce a magical version of his invention and had left detailed instructions for its creation which had been left in the trash section of the family library for many years.

This revelation significantly lightened the burden on Severus's shoulders, providing him with a blueprint to follow. The only remaining obstacle was preserving absolute secrecy which was still not in sight as all the other ways thought by Severus has been proved unsuccessful. But Severus remained undeterred, confident in his ability to surmount this challenge as well.

With thoughts of these newfound possibilities swirling in his mind, Severus made the conscious decision to conclude his second round of simulations and grant himself the respite he so desperately needed. His mental faculties had been pushed to their limits, akin to an overheating CPU. Rest was essential to restore his energy and prepare for the arduous next round of simulations.

.....

As Severus settled into his well-deserved rest, a thought struck him. Why was he feeling so incredibly fatigued and mentally drained, despite his knowledge that his magical power exceeded the limits of an average individual? The exhaustion seemed disproportionate to the exertion he had put forth. Curiosity piqued, he decided to engage in a conversation with the screen, seeking answers to his pressing questions.

"Is anyone there? I have a few inquiries to make," Severus typed into the interface, awaiting a response. In a flash, the screen illuminated, displaying a message that greeted him as a valued customer. Eager to find some clarity, Severus posed his query to the digital entity.

"Why am I experiencing such profound tiredness and mental exhaustion? Although I understand that my magical abilities surpass those of an ordinary person, it shouldn't be this overwhelming," Severus inquired, his words laced with a mixture of frustration and curiosity.

The screen responded with a message that shed light on his predicament. "The cause of your extreme fatigue lies in the fact that your magical core has not yet reached its first maturation stage. As a result, utilizing your powers, particularly in the context of simulations, requires additional effort on your part. The strain you are currently experiencing is a consequence of this. It is strongly recommended that you limit your usage to text-based simulations until your magical core matures fully. Failure to do so may result in overloading your mental faculties and impeding your cognitive abilities. It is through the benevolence of the goddess Nemesis that we have implemented measures to mitigate some of the potential problems that would have already arisen. This is your first time undergoing such simulations, and you have been granted special permission."

Severus let out a frustrated sigh, processing the information. "So, I won't be able to engage in 3D AVR simulations until I reach the age of 11," he lamented.

The screen responded once again, providing guidance based on Severus's circumstances. "It is advisable to limit your usage to text-based simulations once a month and 3D AVR simulations once every six months until you reach the age of 11. After that, we will reevaluate and provide further instructions based on your condition and progress," the message conveyed.

Feeling a tinge of disappointment, Severus contemplated his options. He longed to delve into another round of consecutive simulations, utilizing both 3D AVR and text-based methods. The desire to uncover more knowledge and gain further insights burned within him. Tension filled his voice as he posed his next question to the screen.

"But what about one more consecutive round of simulations? Can I undertake that?" Severus inquired anxiously.

The screen responded, reaffirming the special circumstances surrounding his situation. "As previously mentioned, due to the unique circumstances of your first-time experience and the special permission granted by the goddess Nemesis, we will allow one more consecutive round of simulations. However, it is important to note that there will be side effects, which we will mitigate. Nonetheless, you should be prepared for a three-day slumber following the conclusion of the simulations."

Acknowledging the consequences, Severus made up his mind. "Very well then, let us proceed with the third round of simulations. This time, I would like to focus on future visions of Australia as part of my plan," he requested with determined resolve. With his decision made, Severus prepared himself for the forthcoming endeavors, knowing that he would soon be plunged into the realm of simulations once again.

.....

With these ideas swirling in his mind, Severus made the conscious decision to conclude his third round of simulations and grant himself the respite he so desperately needed. But as soon as he got out of his simulation place, he heard multiple voices.

'F***. Now I will definitely get beaten' was the only thought inside his mind while his face betrayed him by showing a hint of a smile as the solution to his predicament was within reach.

Severus found himself once again immersed in an overwhelming deluge of simulations, encompassing both the realm of 3D augmented and virtual reality (AVR) and text-based scenarios. The sheer magnitude of these simulations, which seemed countless, had taken a toll on his physical and mental well-being. The exhaustion seeped into his very bones, and his mind felt stretched to its limits, struggling to process and navigate through the vast array of information and experiences presented to him.

However, amidst the weariness that enveloped him, a deep sense of satisfaction pervaded his being. He had finally discovered a potential solution to the imminent danger he faced—broadcasting information safely for blackmail purposes. Moreover, the streams of new knowledge, alternative perspectives, and insights he had acquired throughout his simulations promised to be invaluable in the long run. It was as if he had unlocked a treasure trove of possibilities that could aid him in his quest.

His first pursuit led him to delve into the intricate history of his paternal family, the esteemed House of Snape. The ancestral roots of this ancient lineage extended back an impressive 700 years, making them one of the earliest and most revered magical families of European origin in Oceanian history. While the House of Snape had a reputation for producing esteemed Master Magizoologists and Master Herbologists, its prominence had dwindled over the years due to a lack of presence. Currently, only Severus's Great Great Great Grandmother, Lady Samantha Rosaline Snape, resided in Snape Manor, nestled amidst the breathtaking landscapes of Tasmania, Australia, along with the family elves.

Severus discovered that although the House of Snape had a lesser-known legacy, they were famous within the locality for their unique ability to tame a mystical creature known as Nyx, which hadn't been seen before or after their time. This elusive being possessed the remarkable ability to manipulate thoughts, inducing a dream-like state in which individuals would see and experience vivid illusions while remaining untraceable.

The knowledge of the now almost extinct magical creature Nyx sparked a creative idea in Severus's mind—to harness the power of this extraordinary creature in conjunction with the magical version of radio, as pioneered by his ancestor, Guglielmo Marconi. By blending these two forces, he envisioned a way to safely broadcast information, specifically targeting the clandestine activities of Lord Voldemort and Albus Dumbledore. It was an audacious plan, but Severus believed that the combination of Nyx's manipulative abilities and Marconi's magical radio knowledge could create a formidable weapon against the forces of darkness.

Nevertheless, Severus's attempts to uncover the hidden sanctuary that housed the legacy of the House of Snape, with its vast knowledge of magical creatures and herbology that could rival even Hogwarts' library, proved elusive. Time constraints and his urgent quest for a solution to the impending danger hindered his ability to locate this secretive safehouse. However, he remained determined, confident that a solution would reveal itself in due time and that he would also uncover the secrets of the sanctuary.

In another line of inquiry, Severus directed his simulations toward envisioning a scenario in which he and his loved ones could find refuge in Australia during a tumultuous era of war. Just as he expected, the simulations consistently returned with an encouraging response—his family members and friends would be safe. However, the problem lay in interference.

Although Severus didn't face many obstacles in terms of interference from being in Australia, as in the minds of the British, Australia was their backyard, the significant distance posed numerous challenges. In 90 percent of the simulations, Severus met his demise at the hands of Voldemort, as he was caught by his loyal Death Eaters. Additionally, the potential for casualties among the general population became a significant concern, prompting him to reevaluate his course of action.

Amidst the complexities and challenges, the revelation of both Guglielmo Marconi's hidden knowledge about magical radio and the existence of Nyx offered a glimmer of hope for Severus. He had stumbled upon a remarkable solution—an innovative magical version of radio that could transmit messages securely across long distances.

By utilizing Nyx's ability to manipulate thoughts and dreams, Severus could create widespread awareness while remaining anonymous. This newfound knowledge, combined with the power of Nyx's manipulation, presented a compelling strategy for broadcasting incriminating information about both Lord Voldemort and Albus Dumbledore.

With these ideas swirling in his mind, Severus made the conscious decision to conclude his third round of simulations and grant himself the respite he so desperately needed. However, as soon as he emerged from his simulation chamber, he was startled by the sound of multiple voices. A mixture of anxiety and excitement washed over him as he would now have to face the wrath of his family members for making them tense by his situation.

But the best solution to the predicament he faced was within reach and he also knew the challenges and potential consequences lay ahead, But as an extreme sports enthusiast in his previous life, he was actually waiting for an opportunity like this. So, a hint of a smile played on his lips, betraying his conflicted emotions about the upcoming beating by his family.

'Really living as a child is not child's play' shuddered Severus as he saw the concerned look of his family members and friends.
