"Here…" Lin Sen's voice echoed softly through the vast, quiet library, "I modeled this place after Hogwarts' library, with a few… minor improvements."
He gestured toward the endless rows of towering shelves.
"First—infinite expansion. This library has no limits. No matter how many books, scrolls, or tablets you collect on our journey, there will always be room for them here."
He then pointed to the faintly glowing books resting on the shelves.
"Second—automatic updates. I've linked the spatial laws here to the central database of the Institute of Arcane Studies. Any new spell, theory, or research added there will instantly generate a copy here."
Finally, his gaze settled on Hermione's face, now flushed red with overwhelming emotion, and he smiled gently as he spoke the most important part.
"And lastly… time."
"I've placed a temporal dilation enchantment here. Spend an entire day reading inside, and only an hour will pass outside."
There was a hint of unmistakable indulgence in his eyes.
"Hermione, I call this place… the Eternal Library."
"From now on, this is your sanctuary of knowledge."
Hermione stood frozen.
Infinite space…
Self-updating knowledge…
And time is flowing ten times slower…
This was no mere library.
This was the ultimate paradise every scholar could ever dream of.
Her lips trembled as she tried to speak, but her brilliant mind—so often sharp and composed—had completely shut down under the weight of pure joy.
In the end, all her words dissolved into tears—warm, overflowing tears of happiness.
She rushed forward and threw her arms around him, holding him tighter than ever before.
If the Eternal Library was a gift of wisdom for Hermione,
then what Lin Sen prepared for Fleur was a hymn to life and beauty.
After leaving the library, he led them to a vine-covered door at the back of the castle, alive with soft green growth.
"Fleur," he said with a smile, "your bloodline comes from nature… and belongs to it. I thought you might like this."
He gently pushed the door open.
A breath of fresh air rushed out—rich with the fragrance of flowers and grass, brimming with vibrant life.
The moment Fleur stepped through, her sapphire-blue eyes were completely captivated.
Before her lay a garden beyond words.
It wasn't vast—but it felt like the entire essence of spring had been condensed into this one place.
A glowing pebble path wound through fields of blooming flowers. At the end stood a shimmering Moonwell, its waters rippling with soft magical light.
But what truly stunned her… were the plants.
Moonflowers glowing silver in the shade.
Crystal orchids purifying the surrounding magic.
Even the mythical Faerie Tree, bearing radiant fruits of light.
Plants once thought extinct… or purely legendary… were alive here, flourishing.
"These…" Fleur's voice trembled.
"I simply recreated them based on ancient records," Lin Sen replied calmly.
He pointed toward the artificial sun above, radiating gentle warmth.
"This is an Ever-Blooming Garden. Eternal spring, no matter where we are."
"Desert or snowfield—it doesn't matter. Step inside, and spring will always be with you."
Fleur stood there, utterly entranced.
Her Veela blood resonated deeply with the life around her.
She walked to the Moonwell, brushing its surface lightly, then turned back toward him.
"Lin Sen…"
Her voice was soft, filled with emotion.
"Thank you."
"This is… the most beautiful gift I've ever received."
After gifts of knowledge and beauty came something even more direct—
true divine favor, shared equally.
In the underground level, Lin Sen opened a heavy obsidian door etched with stabilizing runes.
Inside lay a perfect alchemy lab.
"Daphne," he said, "you may handle family affairs well… but your true interest has always been potion-making."
She froze slightly—surprised he had noticed.
"This is your workshop."
Inside was everything a master could dream of:
A crystal cauldron with perfect temperature control.
Thousands of rare ingredients, even extinct ones.
Precision tools crafted by goblin artisans.
"You can brew even catastrophic-level potions here safely," Lin Sen added.
"And the materials are linked to the garden—everything grown there will replicate here."
Daphne silently touched the cauldron, her eyes burning with rare intensity.
"Thank you," she said quietly.
For Luna, he opened a living vine gate.
Beyond it stretched an entire ecosystem—
Forests, snow mountains, grasslands, even a deep-sea environment.
"All magical creatures you meet can live here," Lin Sen explained.
"They'll exist under a 'peaceful coexistence' rule—no harm, no hostility."
Luna's eyes lit up like stars.
She dashed forward, laughing, already spotting creatures only she could see.
Finally—Cho Chang.
At the top level, Lin Sen transformed an empty space into a full Quidditch stadium.
Blue skies shifted instantly into storms, then into alien terrains.
"A training ground," he said. "Any weather. Any environment."
Cho stared, overwhelmed.
This was her sky—her freedom.
Each gift was perfect.
Not about love—
But something deeper. Something more enduring.
Yet before their journey truly began, Lin Sen made one final stop.
The Burrow.
That crooked, cozy home filled with warmth.
The moment they arrived through the fireplace, chaos erupted.
"LIN SEN! HERMIONE!"
Molly Weasley rushed forward, tears already forming.
She hugged Lin Sen first—tight, fierce, like a mother embracing her own son.
"Thank you… thank you…"
Her voice trembled.
"For saving my children… our family… this world…"
Lin Sen said nothing.
But for a brief moment, even his godlike calm softened—touched by something deeply human.
Arthur shook his hand vigorously, muttering in awe.
Ron, Fred, George—all gathered around, their eyes filled with pure admiration.
This wasn't glory.
This was home.
