Therefore, even though Dui has now been promoted to a Maiar-level being, he is still a long way from being a true Maiar like Gandalf.
"Goodbye, Gandalf. I wonder when we'll meet again?" Dui said with a touch of reluctance.
Gandalf's eyes were bright and deep, his smile as warm as a spring breeze. He said, "Oh, Duir, there's no need for such sorrow. We are merely going ahead, and time has no effect on us. Decades and centuries are but a fleeting moment. When you tire of sailing west across Middle-earth, I will surely be waiting for you at Avalonni Port!"
"You haven't been to Valinor yet, so you may not know that it's a continent no smaller than Middle-earth, with many sacred and beautiful sights that are beyond description. I'll take you to see them one by one when we get there."
Upon hearing this, Dui's eyes lit up, and he said with a smile, "Now that you mention it, I'm almost eager to meet you. It's just a pity I still have attachments in Central Continent, otherwise I would have liked to come with you all!"
"Furthermore, the departure of your flying professor is a huge loss to Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. Finding a professor with your flying skills when we return will not be easy!"
Hearing Duy's joking words, Gandalf said with a hint of regret, "It's a pity I'll miss the first Quidditch match of the semester. Once I go to Valinor, I won't be able to see such a fun and exciting sport anymore."
"That's easy. You can organize the same competition in Valinor, allowing the Vanya, the Noldor, and..."
The Sindar, Tyrell, and other races will compete; with the elves' agility and skill, it will surely be even more exciting than Quidditch at Hogwarts!
The two used lighthearted words to dispel any reluctance about parting, and they both knew that this was only a temporary separation and that they would meet again in Valinor in the future, so they didn't feel too much reluctance.
Everyone bid each other a reluctant farewell, and then Duy and the others watched Gandalf and his companions board the ship.
Frodo and Bilbo were also on the ship, where they embraced and said goodbye to Sam, Merry, and Pippin, who had come to see them off.
Dui also bid farewell to his old friend Bilbo, and before parting, he gave him a spatial bag filled with many elixirs of immortality.
Valinor is the fairyland where the Valar reside, but it does not grant Bilbo immortality. Therefore, Dui used the Philosopher's Stone to create a considerable amount of elixirs of immortality, enough for him and Frodo to live until Dui and the others traveled to Valinor to reunite.
Accompanied by the whistles of the ship, all those heading to Valinor boarded the vessel, and then, as others on the shore saw them off, they sailed westward toward the sea towards the setting sun.
On the harbor shore, Alvin nestled beside her husband Dui, the couple each holding one of their children's hands, watching the departing ship.
They were all reluctant to part, but because they knew they would meet again someday, they weren't too sad.
Only Sam, Merri, and Pippin were filled with tears, their eyes brimming with reluctance and sadness.
For them, whose lives were finite, this parting might be forever, and they would never see Frodo again in their remaining years.
This time, many people boarded the ship to cross the sea to the west, and the once bustling Grey Harbor became much quieter.
The elves heading to Valinor included not only those from the Valley of the Fallen and Lorien, but also those from the Grey Harbor and Lindon region, all choosing to leave Middle-earth.
Therefore, apart from a few elves who stayed for various reasons, there are almost none left in the Grey Harbor.
Moreover, as time goes by, the number of elves here will decrease until the last elf leaves by ship, and the elf port will eventually be abandoned and deserted.
After seeing Elrond and the others off, Dui and his companions did not linger in the Grey Harbor and returned directly to Hogwarts through the fireplace.
As for Sam, Merry, and Pippin, they also returned to the Shire, continuing their lives in sorrow.
Sam was not only given a great deal of wealth by Frodo, but Bag End was also left to Sam, his wife, and their descendants to live in.
Upon returning to Hogwarts, Duy and Alvin, in addition to continuing their lives, were also responsible for taking over the Valley and Lorien.
Few elves remain in the valley; only a handful, including Arwen's two brothers Elohir and Elladan, and Lindir, Elrond's secretary, remain.
They did not leave Middle-earth with Elrond this time, but instead planned to stay in Middle-earth for a while longer.
Lindir continued to serve as the secretary to the Elven Queen, and Elrohir and Elradan also planned to assist their sister in managing the affairs of the Valley before leaving Middle-earth.
As for Lorien, all the Noldor and Sindar elves followed Galadriel and his people away, while only the Silvan elves, who longed for their homeland and were unwilling to go to Valinor, remained living in the forest.
They all pledged their allegiance to Queen Alwen of the Twilight Stars and continued to guard the tranquility of the Golden Forest.
Hogwarts, the Valley, and Lorien were all enveloped by the power of the Earth Ring by Dui, preventing them from being eroded and corrupted by time.
Dui and Alwen's family of four would regularly spend a period of time in these three places each year so that the power of the Earth Ring, Kaiya, could maintain the peace and beauty of the three places.
Protected by the power of the Earth Ring, Hogwarts, the Valley of the Dead, and Lorien are untouched by the ravages of time. The flowers, trees, and plants never wither or decay, remaining clean, vibrant, and beautiful forever.
Inside the Hogwarts laboratory, Duy is conducting a very mysterious alchemy experiment—bioalchemy.
Bioalchemy is a very advanced form of alchemy, far more complex than making Philosopher's Stones, and it involves life and soul.
This was what he got from signing in at Mount Doom; it was an ancient form of bio-alchemy from the Harry Potter world.
In a sense, bioalchemy is no different from creating life.
On Dui's lab table, a fleshy-colored thing was floating. It was constantly wriggling and radiating vitality, looking just like a living thing!
This is the life essence that Dui extracted from the Orcs, and he preserved its vitality through alchemy.
In a sense, this fleshy mass is alive.
Dui continued his work, placing the flesh-colored material into the alchemy circle. Then, waving his wand, he removed the unfavorable traits of the orcs, such as irritability, rebelliousness, and bloodlust, from the material, while retaining genes for loyalty and obedience.
Then he took out a clump of light red blood, which belonged to the Elven race. Under his control, the blood fused with the flesh-colored substance, turning into red veins that looked like tiny blood vessels.
At this time, the flesh-colored substance is not only full of vitality, but also has magical properties, and is naturally inclined to magic.
At this point, Dui stopped manipulating the flesh-colored substance and instead summoned a half-orc locked in an iron cage with a wave of his hand.
"Avada Kedavra!" A beam of green light shot from the tip of the staff and struck the orc.
The orc collapsed to the ground, his terrified face lifeless.
Dui waved his wand again, chanting an obscure incantation, and a phantom soul emerged from the dead orc.
The orc's soul was twisted and dark, not even complete, and struggled in terror in mid-air, but had no ability to resist.
Dui imprisoned the orc's soul within an alchemical circle, and then began a deeper understanding and modification process.
