Pleasant dreams was not something Harry Potter was mostly accustomed to because either he would wake up without a memory of anything or with a cold laugh and a flash of green light would change everything.
Turning in his bed, the 9-year-old tried to return to the rare pleasant dream. He dreamed that he was a character from the many games he played and fought with different monsters gaining many items and gold while gaining fame for his deeds.
He did not want to wake up back to his old closet at his uncles home where he had little food and water, next to his uncles who did not treat him with the least care or affection or friends. Very fortunately your life would change.
Games was something he was half used to, because his cousin occasionally made him play with him in order to help him when one of his friends was not around, so dreams like these were a little too frequent.
Hearing noises from the bedroom above Harry sighed sadly, he would have to make breakfast from his relatives, otherwise he would have problems with which he did not want to deal.
Opening his eyes slowly he almost had a heart attack.
You slept in your bed. HP and MP fully restored.
A blue box with black letters appeared in front of him. Rubbing his eyes he looked around the closet trying to see something that indicated a joke, but he found nothing. Carefully enough he touched the box that disappeared instantly in front of his eyes.
"What just happened?" Harry wondered. "Did I go crazy? ''
"Yes, Auntie," he replied quickly, heading toward cooking to prepare the meal.
He would have to be quick, because every wasted moment was time his uncle and cousin took down the stairs. His uncle would complain while Dudley would drop the dishes and blame him.
Gathering the ingredients he prepared to start cooking before another blue box appeared. Luckily her aunt was upstairs so she did not hear the exclamation of surprise. He had thought it was a joke or a brief hallucination, but right in front of him was a blue box with black letters.
A quest was created.
Quest alert!
Feeding Relatives: Prepare Breakfast.
Make a good breakfast for your relatives without searing the bacon!
Reward: 500 exp.
Accept - Decline.
It was completely normal so he did not even notice, instead he stared in surprise at the signs above their heads.
Vernom Dursley - Corporate Director Grunnings. - level.5
Petunia Dursley - Housewife - level.3
Dudley Dursley - Bully - Level.4
Knowing that if he mentioned the signs above their heads would be punished, he held his tongue and remained silent. The dursleys hated abnormal things so he would have to stay in his in silence. He almost screamed yet when another message appeared and he had to do his best not to draw any attention.
Congratulations! Quest. Feeding relatives fulfilled!
Received 650 exp.
Subtly touching the screen, she disappeared and another appeared in place.
A new skill was created through a special action.
Silently he touched the screen that disappeared and went to the bathroom where he could think for a moment. Going into the bathroom he looked at his reflection in the mirror and saw.
Harry Potter - Level 2
The Gamer
Harry did not understand what he was seeing in the mirror, but he ignored it and quickly straightened out while his aunt yelled at him to hurry up or he was going to walk to school. Not wanting to try his luck, he finished quickly, got out and got into the car.
As soon as they arrived at school, Harry gasped when he saw that they all had a blue label with their names and levels above their heads. However he did not have time to look any further because the signal rang and he had to run into the classroom.
He was not very surprised when he entered the room and saw a blue sticker on the teacher's head.
Philip Johnson - teacher - level.7
Professor Johnson was a very strict teacher, but he was not hostile. It was fair to everyone and did not allow distractions in the classroom. Only Dudley or his friends who used to make a mess and did not pay attention.
Harry however had other things in his head today. He was still trying to figure out what was going on around him. As crazy as it seemed, somehow he had entered a game just as he wished. Thinking for a moment the dark-haired boy decided to test his theory. Gathering the memories about the games he began to remember the options. When he finally thought Status a blue screen larger than the ones before appeared in front of him.

About Me
Money: 5 L
Harry could not believe his eyes. It was a game, well, his life had turned into a game. Reading the information presented twice he looked around the room and saw that he was on the lowest level. Even Dudley, who did nothing, had a level 4, which he thought was unfair but long ago he had become accustomed that life was unfair.
Harry got a little confused with the MP for some reason was very high. His relatives kept insisting that magic did not exist, but nevertheless he knew there were different spells in the games. Curious he clicked on top of STR and another information tag opened.
Str: Strength determines how much damage the player will cause with or without a weapon. Strength also allow you to reduce the amount of damage suffered and use heavier items.
"Incredible, the more STR I have the more power I have as well as in the game." Harry thought and began to check the other information on the items in status.
Vit: Vitality determines the amount of Hp and durability. The more vit the more damage the player can suffer and the longer he can remain in combat. Vit also dictates the regeneration rate of HP when the player is in or out of combat.
Int: Determines MP size, MP recovery rate and magic attack damage. Int also determines the speed of learning and remembering information.
Wis: Wisdom determines how clever the player is to use the learned information. Wis has a great influence on the int and regeneration rate of PM.
Luk: Luck improves the odds of better defeated monsters items and interferes with certain actions. Affects the critical rate.
Titles: Receiving titles guarantees a multitude of benefits. Some titles are disposable and can be improved over time into something higher.
Status: One can receive many different states that are either temporary (eg Poisoned, Tired, Cursed, etc ....) Or permanent, A permanent status will be obtained from hereditary DNA or by special acts.
It was not difficult to understand everything, it took only a moment for him to absorb the information. Because he was still in class he had to be careful not to get distracted and receive a warning for inattention. However his thoughts were on his recent discovery.
He decided to deal with it at night, but in physical education class he involuntarily had to turn his thoughts to the situation he was in. After class three more signs appeared.
Training increased STR 1 point
Training increased VIT 1 point
Training increased by 1 point
"If a single day in the gym increased STR, VIT AND DEX at the same time I never complained again." He commented to himself as he thought of the possibilities.
If he struggles he could get stronger and he would not have to run from Dudley and his idiot friends anymore, Harry thought, gaining a new wave of determination.
After school he preferred to race home, and won another one of VIT and DEX. Already at night when he returned to his closet after finishing his so he could concentrate on what he had started early in the morning. Remembering all that was possible about games he thought of Skills. And a screen appeared with the basic skills and information.
Skills: After performing certain special acts you can create new skills. The player can learn a multitude of skills that will help him throughout his life. Some are simple (eg learning to cook) and others are more complex. Skills increase level if used frequently. The player must be aware of more complex skills that are more difficult to level up. When you reach the maximum level some skills will be changed in new or totally different skills.

Gardening (passive) Lv 1. Technique used to cultivate and maintain a garden. With the mastery plants grew in better qualities and faster.
"So cooking is my only active skill, but it's only level 1. Do I have an inventory?" He asked himself and a new window appeared. Containing an image of a body with its clothes next to another box with several blank blocks.
"There, now no one else will rob me, and I'll be able to store food for as long as I want." He thought about putting away his few possessions, books and clothes before going to sleep.
You slept in your bed. HP and MP fully restored.
Harry closed the notification and went into the kitchen as was his daily routine. It was a bit disappointing that there was no other quest about making breakfast, but he managed to raise the level of Cooking in one and still manage to keep a few slices of bacon and some boiled eggs in the inventory, so it was worth it. Because it was a weekend and he had no class, his uncle prepared a list of tasks for him.
After washing the dishes and raising the level in one he went to the garden and started cutting grass, plucking weeds and watering the flowers. In the middle of the task a window appeared warning of another skill, but he ignored it for the time being. When he finished his uncle did not find enough and put him to clean the garage. He had to empty boxes, clean the place, stack everything neatly, and then throw the garbage away.
He finished off just before dinner that Aunt Petunia had begun to prepare. As he was on the way to the house two ads appeared.
His hard work increased by STR 1 point.
His hard work increased VIT 1 point
Harry was happy, if he could increase STR, VIT, and DEX by hard training or struggling, he wondered what was needed to increase INT, WIS, and LUK. Although his INT and MP were strangely high.
You slept in your bed. HP and MP fully restored.
Sunday brought nothing new except the fact that Vernon had no task at home to give him. However that did not stop him from arranging odd jobs for him with the neighbors.
While Harry wanted to find out more about his abilities and find a way to use magic, his uncle made sure he had little or no time.
Following to the first neighbor's house he saw a label naming him.
William Castle - Mechanic - Level.6
"Good morning, I'm Harry Potter, my uncle told me to come and help you." Harry introduced himself and the man grinned.
"I expected you to be older, but that's okay. Ready to work? "Harry asked and Harry nodded.
"Surely, what do you want me to do?" He said and the man smiled wider.
"I like you young. You do not have laziness to work like most young people today. "He said leading Harry to the garden where the skeleton of a gazebo was.
A quest was created.
Quest alert!
You can do it?
Help Mr. Castle mount the gazebo!
Reward: 600 exp - ???.
Accept - Decline.
Harry clearly accepted the task and began to work. His job was basically to help align the wood, help the coating, give nails, hold the hammer and give the tools when requested. When he got the basics of what he had to do he took another hammer and began to nail the boards on the other side and everything ran faster.
It was almost noon when they were finished and Harry poured the water from his spout into his body to wipe away sweat.
"It did great, did not it? Would you mind if I asked for your help more often? "William asked and Harry nodded.
"I would be happy to help again. But I can only do it on the weekends. "He responded a little excitedly and the man pulled out a note from his wallet and handed it to him.
"Here's a thank you for the help. I'll definitely call you more often, "he said as Harry stared in disbelief at the money, but smiled and thanked him before moving on to the next neighbor's house.
Congratulations! Quest. You can do it? fulfilled
Received 780 exp and 20 pounds.
You went up 1 level.
Your hard work increased STR by 1 point.

Smiling Harry put the money in the inventory and went to the next neighbor's house.
Sebastian Hale - Artist - Level.4
"Good morning, Mr. Hale," he greeted the man's attention. "My name is Harry, my uncle said I came to ask if you need any help," he said and the man nodded.
"If you can get the room clean for me is enough," he said, pointing to a totally messy room.
A quest was created.
Quest alert!
Arranging the room.
Help Mr. Hale by cleaning his room!
Reward: 500 exp - ???.
Accept - Decline.
Clicking on accept harry quickly began cleaning the room. After sweeping the floor and dusting off, he spent a good deal of time carefully picking dry clay from the furniture and tidying up the place, piling up magazines and materials in the corners.
While arranging the objects he ended up staring at several wooden sculptures and a message appeared.
A new skill was created through a special action.
Through his continued observation, a skill to discover target information was created, "observe."
Blinking the young man decided to test his new skill and used it on a nearby sculpture.
[BEAR SCULPTURE - RANK: COMMON.]
BEAUTIFUL WOODEN SCULPTURE CREATED BY SEBASTIAN HALE, DOES NOT HAVE MUCH VALUE, BUT IT'S A GREAT DECORATION.
Smiling to himself he continued to clean as he wore the observe on all the surrounding sculptures raising the level of his new skill to 5. By the end of the afternoon he was finished and went to Mr. Hale to warn him. When he entered the room where the man was, he saw him cast a jar of clay.
"Are you done yet?" The man asked without turning his head to look at the jug.
"Yes, sir," he said uncertainly.
"Here," he said taking a note out of his pocket and giving the dirty note to the young man. "This is for your work. Near the door has a book and a notch knife on a table can pick up if you want, now get out of here. "He snapped and went back to his pitcher.
Congratulations! Quest. Arranging the room. fulfilled
Received 650 exp, 50 pounds, craft book and notch knife.
Keeping silent, Harry put the money away and took the knife and the book kept them in the inventory and went quietly. He did not go straight home, but to a kiosk at the end of the street and bought some things to eat and quietly kept others. He kept the money in the inventory otherwise his uncle and cousin would confiscate or steal from him. If he remembered well at the beginning of each holiday period there was a flea market in the streets next door and he planned to buy some new things.
You slept in your bed. HP and MP fully restored.
Oddly, this message had become part of Harry's routine. It had been almost two months since he had gained that ability. He had to wait two whole months until the holidays, but it had been worth it. His uncle and cousin were on a father and son trip and there were no chores to be done indoors so he could enjoy the whole day off.
The constant tasks in the neighbors helped him to go up one level and match that of his cousin and usually paid some money. The level he gained increased some statistics so he kept his points saved.
Name: Harry Zelretch Potter
Age: 9
Job: The Gamer
Level: 4 Next level: 47.69%
Title: Busy, elementary school student.
Hp: 220
Mp: 450
Strength (STR): 10
Vitality (VIT): 14
Dexterity (DEX): 16
Intelligence (INT): 24
Wisdom (WIS): 10
Luck (LUK): 5
Points:10
Money: 212L
Harry thought of putting some points in LUK and WIS but decided against it, for now. First he would have to find out how they could be useful in the short term and he had no points to waste on testing. Until the present moment he had concentrated only on joining money and better his statistics. Luckily the Dursleys did not know the money he earned, nor did they miss the few notes he could get here and there.
INT was his biggest statistic and could be increased by spending some time studying and reading. He still wondered why he was so tall, though. He planned to go to the local library but he would have to wait until he was eight years old, and that would take time.
Constant practice really helped raise his skill level, mostly because of his uncles, his cooking skill was level 15, dishwasher level 7, and gardening level 10. He had also gained the skill Craft after reading the book he earned from the Mr. Hale and sculpt a rough chess piece, after which he began to keep any piece of wood big enough in his inventory and spent most of the time locked in the closet practicing the skill that was at level 16.
[Craft (active) Lv 16 Exp: 90%]
The ability to do something. Humanity has advanced its civilization by inventing things by inventing. Building objects becomes easier as your level of mastery increases. Chance to fail when creating by 28%.
On the first Saturday of the month of vacation, leaflets announcing the flea market not far from where he lived were everywhere. Harry decided to take a look at him, he needed new clothes, although he really wanted to be training weights.
Just as in every year the market was full of people who walked from one side to the other, visiting the abundance of scattered sellers. Harry was surprised at the amount of stuff being sold, though most of it was useless. Arriving at a table he saw a pile of used tennis shoes but that would be usable for a year or two.
For two pounds he bought a pair of sneakers and ten more shirts, shorts and jeans, but he was glad he did not have to wear his cousin's clothes.
He found old books of various genres at £ 3 each. He bought one about economics in order to know how to handle money properly, a book by Frances, two chemistry, four science, and one anatomy. Luckily he ended up finding an old karate book next to an acupuncture book.
Harry bought the two books and went away from the market he kept the purchases in the inventory and returned. Back in the market he came upon a man selling sword and other weapons. Several of them were rusted and poorly maintained. Using the observe to analyze the swords he found one that pleased him.
[JIAN CHINESE - RANK: COMMON]
CHINESE SWORD OF TWO GUMES MADE OF IRON.
REQUIREMENTS: 5 STR.
"You like it, do not you? My old man won her in a raffle along with a horseshoe and a bottle of whiskey. "The man behind said with a smile. "For 190 pounds you can give your dad a nice gift, how's it going?"
So, he was one of those irresponsible people who would sell a sharp sword to a child if he had money. Great.
"I give 100 pounds," he said and the man lost his smile.
"No way, 170" he offered.
"150 and I take the aluminum bat" he said, pointing to a baseball bat.
"160, and you can take two" The man offered and Harry accepted.
After paying the man Harry took his things and left the market, when he turned the corner he kept the inventory and saw a new message.
A new skill was created through a special action.
Through negotiation of a price the skill Bargaining Lv 1 was created.
Bargaining (passive) Lv 1. Discussing the price with sellers the player can lower the price in their favor. Chance of success 2%.
Despite the low chance of success his new ability would be very useful when he was at a higher level. Turning away from the path Harry headed for a grove. It was an isolated, uninvited place so it was great. Arriving at a clearing harry opened his inventory and took out the karate book and a blue window appeared.
You got the skill book [Karate-Shotokan]
You would like to learn this skill.
Accept - Reject.
Clicking to accept the book shone and fell apart and a lot of knowledge popped into his mind, and a skill came up.
[Shotokan Style Karate Technique (passive and active) LV 1 EXP: 00.00%]

Passively increases unarmed attack speed by 10%.

Activating the technique Harry made the kata as if he had known them for years, taking a deep breath he concentrated on the fist and punched a tree leaving a small mark on the trunk.
A new skill was created through a special action.
A skill to draw a powerful blow "Power Strike" was created.
[Power Strike (active) LV 1 EXP: 00.00%] obtained.
Strikes a target with thunderous force.
15% increase in critical chance.
50% damage increase.
"Incredible," Harry thought as he stepped into position. " Power Strike " activated the skill and his fist was surrounded by a yellow energy and plucked a piece of trunk when he hit.
Feeling a wave of inspiration, he continued to strike the trunk ignoring the messages that appeared. After some time the brunette fell down and sat breathing heavily. As he drew big sips of air he looked at the messages and was surprised.
Hard training increased STR 1 point (X3)
Hard training increased VIT 1 point (X5)
Hard training increased by DEX 1 point (X3)
Powerful strike increased level. (X4)
Technique Karate Shotokan style increased level. (X7)
"All this?" The brunette wondered in surprise. Looking at the sky he saw that it was almost late afternoon saying that he had been attacking the tree for about three hours. Taking a bottle of water from the inventory he drank a little and threw the rest into the body. Saving the bottle back he got up and started walking toward his uncles' house.
A few meters after leaving the woods he noticed two very wrong things. First the street was deserted, in a residential neighborhood and even more so on the days that the flea market was selling. Second there was a big man with a blond mohawk wearing a black cloak that made him look like a kind of wizard with a dark wooden scepter with a green oval stone at the end, next to two huge green wolves above a house and a tall woman with long green hair wearing a brown leather outfit flying.
With a movement of the staff the air a tear appeared in the air and a giant centipede came out and fired in the woman's direction. The woman simply raised a finger and a cyclone shot from the tip ripping the insect and everything on the way. The man grabbed at one of the wolves that jumped off the path of the attack that completely destroyed the houses on the straight.
The other jumped over the attack and tried to bite the woman, but she simply punched the wolf's head that exploded with the blow. In the air the man began firing fireballs at the woman who used her bȧrė hands to deflect the attacks.
Looking up at their heads their eyes widened in information.
Pheles - Colorful Wave - Level ???
Harry was confused as to why he could not see the woman's level.
Wilson Blackann - Mage Cleaner - level 49
"This guy is more than twelve times my level." Harry thought in panic. Against someone of this level he was helpless. "I have to run as far as possible." He thought as he turned to the forest and tried to run, but something seemed to stick his left leg to the ground.
Looking down he saw his foot stuck in a kind of black mud. "What is this?" He thought of panic before the mud curled up on his legs and stretched several feet high leaving him upside down.
"Pheles of the colorful wave, you'd better not run away or that child will be ripped to shreds," the man said with a smile making Harry panic rise even more.
"THAT'S THE THING THAT IS SAYED WITH A FACE OF THESE," Harry shouted in his mind before realizing that the man was surrounded by a sort of circle of blue mud.
Watching increased one level.
A window appeared in Harry's vision to give him an idea. Using the look out another window appeared in front of him.
BLACK SLIME Lvl.20
HP: 1500 MP: 500
A SLIME WHO LIVES IN THE WORLD OF DEMONS. CAN STORAGE DEMONIAC POWER IN ITS INTERIOR AND HAS THE ABILITY TO STRENGTHEN ITS BODY. YOUR MOVEMENTS ARE SLOWER THAN HUMAN, BUT IT'S FAST JUMPING WHEREVER IT ARRIVES NEAR. YOUR ATTACK PATTERNS ARE WELL SYSTEMIC.
"Damn I do not want to die here," he thought, drawing his sword from inventory. "Power Strike" activated said activating his skill causing his sword to be surrounded by a yellow energy and cutting off the slime that loosened it. "Yes" He thought before he remembered that it was in the air and hit the ground.
"Damn, that hurts" he complained before realizing he was not hurt. "I did not break anything?" He asked looking his dusty body. "That was lucky," he commented before feeling something and jumping to the side.
The decision proved correct when the whole stretched slime hit the ground where it was leaving three deep holes in the asphalt. Looking down at the slime, he watched as he shrank and shuddered as an Hp bar floated over him.
HP: 1000
"Wow 500 damage in one attack." Jumping to the side avoiding another attack. "The attacks are really systemic and easy to avoid," he thought, watching the slime pull back and squirm before the next attack.
"A few more blows and it's my win. If I fail I die" He thought determined. The next second the slime attacked, he jumped to the side dodging. As the slime retreated the young man stepped forward and struck a series of cuts on the monster.
As he began to retract he jumped back and began to take a distance between them.
Hp: 360
"Now there's little left," he commented to himself, strangely familiar with the sword in his hand. The slime squirmed and the brunet prepared, the monster attacked and the brunet jumped aside to avoid the attack.
"Now," he shouted, striking the slime that was cut into two leaving only a bunch of black mucus and a black ball behind. "That's it" He thought happily before several messages appeared.
A new skill was created through a special action.
A skill that allows the user to freely manipulate swords. "Mastery with Swords" was created.
[Mastery With Swords (Passive) LV 1 EXP: 00.00%] obtained.
Increases attack spell damage by 10%.

You went up 1 level.
You went up 1 level.

"Great three levels at once." He thought with a smile, before an explosion shook the area. Looking in the direction he saw the man on top of the other green wolf and the woman flying back and forth struggling with a three-headed dog and a giant green mantis.
It was incredible the woman simply avoided the attacks of the two beasts without difficulty. When the attacks were about to hit she would move within inches of the attacks. After deflecting a blow from the mantis' sickles, a gust of wind from her finger cut the giant insect in two.
The three-headed dog jumped in the air, and behind the woman trying to catch her from behind as a blue slime shot from the floor. Looking over her shoulder, the woman raised her hand and with a snap of fingers the dog and the goo were torn apart by a whirlwind, which also left several houses destroyed in the process.
The wizard jumped from the wolf to the roof of one of the few standing houses and the wolf leapt toward the woman as the magician created several arrows of energy and fired. The woman swerved from the wolf's thrust, which passed directly, and with a wave of her hand a gust of wind hit the arrows that had disappeared.
The wolf this time opened his mouth and spat a flurry of greenish fire. The woman flew out of the direction of the wolf's attack, but a fireball struck her causing an explosion. Looking at the man he saw him with his hand raised and a smile on his face.
Clenching his teeth Harry felt a huge frustration at the feeling of powerless. He was too weak to do anything, if he called more attention to himself without doubt he would end up dead as the man threatened. He would have to wait and hope not to be the next target.
A blast of air dispersed the explosion and revealed the woman relatively unscathed had it not been for a burn on the shoulder pad.
"You're as tough as you seem to be," the man scoffed irritatingly at the woman. "Let's see how you handle it," he said raising his staff and a huge crack appeared in the air from which a huge snake came out next to a giant humanoid being with a bird's head and wings and another green wolf.
With a wave of her hand a swirl of wind shot from the woman's palm at high speed, piercing the body of the bird-humanoid and the snake and headed toward the wizard.
"It will not work," the man shouted with a smile, lifting his staff and creating a barrier of energy.
The smile, however, disappeared from his face when the wind attack broke the barrier without difficulty. From outside the battle Harry saw the man Jumping to the side in an attempt to deflect of the attack but the attack scraped by pulling the left arm of the man who fell releasing a howl of pain while holding the stump.
With another hand movement the woman killed the two remaining monsters and looked at the man on the floor so coldly that it made Harry swallow and shiver.
"It's over," the woman asked raising her arm above her head as a gust of wind surrounded her hand.
Growling, the man got up and used his staff, summoning several wolves who fired toward the woman. "This has not ended yet colorful wave. You're still going to pay me for it, "he shouted, raising his staff as dark energy began to circle him.
Seeing the man preparing to flee, a thought crossed Harry's mind. The man knew about him, and he had threatened him. A next time he knew he could not fight and probably the woman would not be there. It was a remote possibility, but he chose not to rely on his low fate.
He had to attack. Somehow he had to hit the man 20 meters away. But he had no long range attacks. Not a bow or arrow, let alone a shotgun. He only had the sword in his hands, and that would have to do.
Concentrating on the muscles of his arm, he swung his sword and fired with all the strength he could muster. Time seemed to slow down and run slowly as the sword pierced the air. Looking sideways he saw the woman slowly moving her hand as the gusts of wind ripped and sliced the wolves in slow motion. The man's eyes were focused on the woman as a black miasma slowly climbed around her body.
"You'll pay me for it Pheles, when I come back you'll be dead, listen, mor" The man's cry was interrupted by a sword that pierced his back and came out in his ċhėst. The man turned around and saw Harry staring at him in a position that indicated that he had thrown the blade.
Harry saw the wizard look into his eyes with confusion on his face. The wizard tried to say something, but died in his throat when he spat a ball of blood and fell dead on the ground.
"I killed him." Harry thought scared not by the fact that he had killed, but by the fact that he felt nothing.
A new skill was created through a special action.
A skill that allows the user to hurl their weapons. "Throwing Weapon" was created.

Messages appeared in front of you. Swallowing hard Harry decided to think about it later, now the woman was standing in front of him looking at him with an indecipherable look. She took a step towards him and he answered by taking one back.
The woman raised an eyebrow and took another step. Harry took another one back. The woman started walking toward the boy and he started to walk backwards in the same rhythm. The little game soon ended when he slammed his back against a wall.
"Damn," he cursed mentally as he realized he had cornered himself. The woman came and crouched, leaving her eyes on the same level as the young man, making sweat begin to trickle down the young man's face.
"What's your name, kid?" He asked, causing the young man to cringe against the wall.
"It's Harry Potter lady," he replied, leaving the fear clear in his voice.
The woman looked at the magician's body and the rest of the slime and turned her gaze to the boy. "These are not opponents that any child can defeat. How did you do it? "The uncompromising tone in his voice made it clear that it was not to be contained with a half mouth answer and he was very afraid of what would happen to him if he lied then he did the only thing left and told the whole truth without omit anything.
Logically thinking increases your WIS and INT by 1.
Harry ignored the message and looked at the woman holding her chin in her hand as she held a thoughtful face, which made her look even more beautiful in the young man's opinion, not that he would express that thought anyway.
After several minutes of silence the woman nodded and sat down on the floor again leveling her gaze with his. "Okay, it's a bit difficult to fully understand, but I believe you," he said making the brunet feel relieved. "However there are many things you need to know. Do you know the theory of living earth? "She asked and the dark-haired man nodded.
"Yes lady, is Gaia's theory, she says that the earth is a unique and living organism and says that it has a will of its own, but it has no scientific proof." He said what he remembered having read in some book.
"First call me Pheles," he said raising a finger. "And yes it's more or less that, but the theory is a fact," he said surprising the young man. "To better explain this world has a will. Some call it " PROVIDENCE " and others call it "LAW" can also be called god. Things like ghosts and espers or people with paranormal abilities also exist around. "
"There are many types of abilities the ability to move objects with the mind is called psychokinesis. There are also others such as teleportation, pyrokinesis or aerokinesis in my case. These people are called natural born users of skill because they could be from the moment they were born, "he said as he watched Harry absorb his words. "But back to what we were talking about Gaia theory, the powers of natural users like us," he said pointing to himself and the young man. "They were given to us by Gaia, in a way that can be said to have been chosen by God," the young man said shockingly.
"What, chosen by God? Did God give me that ability? "The young man wondered in his confused mind. "So why did I get this weird skill? He asked and the green haired woman scratched the complaint before answering.
"Well the powers given by Gaia, are something that normally the person thinks is special. "He said with a wave of the young man. "For example someone who almost drowned can achieve the ability to control water"
" Got it. "I said before something came to your head. "Wait. This means that..."
"You've been playing too much," the woman said with a playful smile, causing Harry to bow his head in shame, before he would be back again. "Now that you know it, let's move on to more important things." The tone of seriousness made Harry swallow.
"First did you realize that even after all the damage no one showed up?" He asked, catching a positive nod from the boy, it was one of the first things he had noticed. "This place is an illusory barrier. A space created for combat, "said the young man again.
"That's a bit tricky so pay attention, remember that Gaia give powers to some people? But there is a restriction, it is called the law of interference. If a supernatural power that goes against physical laws is used to change the real world drastically Gaia will try to eliminate that person "
"What?" The brunet exclaimed in alarm, and the woman scratched her chin for an explanation.
"Take, for example, let's suppose a person who used his powers to win the lottery," he said, gaining the young man's attention again. "From that day forward your life would be a hell and he will die, for example you can be struck by lightning on a clear day or other unfortunate accidents can happen like being hit by a truck while in your house. "
"That means if you use your powers to affect the real world or normal people this will cost your life," Harry said feeling a chill.
"More or less, the term affect is very vague, I heard about a person casting a spell to sell sesame breads like never before."
"And he was not punished for that?" Harry asked.
"Like I said is a very vague term, but in that case I think you can see something as an effect if many realize something is wrong." She explained taking out the doubt of the brunette. The suit was really vague. "Now coming back the illusory barriers, they are an artificial space where you can use all your powers without restraint because no matter the damage will not affect the real world, and the easiest skill to learn. "
"Why? "Harry asked.
"Because the barrier is Gaia. Since you have a skill I'll teach you, "he said, gaining a twinkle in the young man's gaze. "I want you to raise your hand and think about leaving while concentrating energy in your hand."
The dark haired man nodded and raised his hand. After a while he looked at the dull woman.
"How do you use energy?" He asked awkwardly, making the woman sigh.
"You have to imagine the force coming out of your hands."
"Okay," he said raising his hand and concentrating. "The force is coming out of my hands. The force is coming out of my hands. "He sang mentally feeling energy in his hands before warnings came.
A new skill was created through a special action.
Skill to use mana directly [Energy Ray] was created.
[Energy Bolt (Active) NV.1 EXP 0.0%]
A skill that attacks the mana cast.
Attack power is increased by INT.
Range 10 m.
Ignoring for the time being the message he began to concentrate the energy while he thought of leaving.
"Wait!" Pheles' scream made him lose his concentration completely.
"What is it?" He asked looking at the woman who stood up and with a wave of the man created a gust of wind that brought the body of the man along with the scepter to the two.
"Get those outfits and your sword back," the woman said seriously. "He does not need them anymore, but they can still be of some use to you, even if it's to sell," he said with a grin.
He knew that the woman's words were true, but he still did not feel very good about taking the possessions of a dead man. However, the logical part in his mind overcame the feeling and it started. Plucking the sword from the man's ċhėst was the most difficult because he was well buried in it, after which he took off his cloak, waistcoat, wallet, rings, necklaces, bracelets, leather bag, book and scepter and the powders in the inventory.
With another wave of hand, another gust of wind came up and hurled his body several meters away from them. With a nod Pheles motioned for him to continue from where he had stopped.
Again concentrating the energy of the hand he thought of leaving and several cracks appeared in the air before breaking and he being back on the street with the houses intact and everyday sounds all over the place.
A new skill was created through a special action.
A skill to leave the illusory barrier, [Instant Dungeon Escape], was created.
[Instant Dungeon Escape (active) NV.1 EXP 0.0%]
Used to escape instant dugeons.
"Very well," Pheles laughed with a smile. "Now quickly create an illusory barrier"
"Show up illusory barrier. Show up illusory barrier. "He sang in his mind as he concentrated energy in his hand. He felt a strand of energy come out and the sounds disappeared, and a feeling of the world somehow change.
A new skill was created through a special action.
A skill to Create an illusionary barrier, [DI Creation], was created.
[DI creation (active) NV.1 EXP 0.0%]
Used to create instant dugeons. Stronger dugeons can be created according to level.
"Are there different kinds of instant barrier?" He asked the woman who confirmed the fact.
"Well now you know the basics," he said, putting his hands on his waist. "Just so as to be clear, just as there are users of natural ability there are those who acquire them through training, there are quite a few of them here in England." He commented again earnestly. "Another thing be very careful with other users of skill, they will not be like me, so it's better to train a lot and keep the profile low otherwise you're going to die, that's what it means to live in that" abyss ", you understand? "He asked, earning a nod from the young man.
"Fine then meet me here in a week." Pheles said breaking the barrier and disappearing with a breeze of wind.
Tired Harry returned to his uncles' house and slipped quietly back into his closet before bed. Feeling a little hungry Harry opened the inventory to take a cookie he had saved more stopped when he realized two more things that were not before. One letter and one blue box.
Withdrawing the letter he opened it and began to read.
Hello Harry.
I am Kischur Zelretch Schweinor, you can call me Zelretch or Grandpa Zel, whichever you prefer. If you are reading this card then you have already awakened your ability and reached level ten. if my accounts are right you should already be ten for now. Anyway you can say that I had a hand in developing your skill so I hope you are enjoying it. I imagine that you should have some doubts, but do not worry, we'll meet soon and I'll answer some of them. As a birthday present late and rewarded for reaching the tenth level in the box you should have noticed in your inventory are books with some spells, a notebook, a kind of very useful computer, a shopping voucher and an item called gambler slot, when you activate it a roulette will pop up with the numbers from 1 to 10, it can only be used once every ten levels. The higher the number the better the premiums you will receive. At every ten levels you will get one. As it will be the first time the numbers will range from 6 to 10. Another important thing the purchase voucher can only be used in the abyss auction, you will be able to access it by the icon on the notebook that looks like a black shopping cart, the ticket only can be used once, then spend wisely and do not care about the value I will pay with pŀėȧsurė.
Zelretch.
PS: You can use your powers without restriction to a certain extent, I must visit you in a week or two.
PPs: I advise you to increase your INT to 50 and WIS to 15 as it is required by some books, this will also help you increase, understand and manipulate your mana better.
PPPs: Something called Dugeons, or dungeons and just like in games there are monsters that when defeated drop items and give EXP. There is a map that shows some natural dugeons near its locality in the area of 1 km². Good luck.
Harry read the letter several times until he was certain of what he had read. He had a grandfather, or at least someone said his grandfather. And that same person had helped in the way his powers worked. Massaging his forehead Harry began to headache forming along with dozens of questions in his mind.
Taking a deep breath he pushed the thought out of his mind for a moment. It would not make any difference to think about it now, he had more important things to think about right now. First he had spell books to learn magic. According to him he would have to access this auction of the abyss in order to see the products sold. Third he would have to increase his WIS and INT in order to learn magic.
"I can increase my INT by reading books so I can spend those points by increasing something else. Since my WIS is much more difficult, it only increases only when I think logically, so it's harder, maybe if I buy some books on logic they'll help. Harry thought and a message appeared in front of him.
Thinking logically increases your WIS by 1.
Smart thinking increases your Int in 1.
At least it was one less point he would have to win. Removing the box he opened and stored the contents back in inventory except for a small round device with a buŧŧon on the side and the number 6 visible and gambler slot in blue letters.
He had nothing to lose here so he pressed the buŧŧon and the roulette started rolling over the numbers. Watching closely Harry found he could find the rhythm of the object, every 4 seconds the number 10 appeared.
Watching went up one level.
Ignoring the message, the young man prepared his finger to push the buŧŧon at the right moment. Risking everything in the ten was very risky, so he would have to try the 8 or 9. As soon as the roulette returned to the six he started counting in his mind. And he pressed the buŧŧon.
The roulette wheel decelerated and rolled again, stopping at the next number to which he had tightened leaving a visible 9. The roulette flashed and disappeared leaving five things behind. Two small cloths, a silver ring with a blue stone, a round green stone, a blue die, and an old iron key.
"Observe" He activated the ability holding the key.
[Master Key - Rank: Uncommon]
A key that can open any door no matter what the lock. Unable to open magical locks of high level.
"This is very useful," Harry thought, putting the key in the inventory and picking up the ring.
[Thief Master Ring - Rank: Rare]
A magic ring that belonged to a notorious thief in life. Grants the user the skills, Strike level 15, Light Hands level 20, Steal level 20 and Camouflage level 5. Add Luk 35 to the user.
Something a bit odd, but if he remembered well in the games were common skills to the character of the thief class. The next were the packages.
[Middle Cards Pack - Rank: Rare]
A cloth pack containing 6 magic cards with unique powers.
AND
[Large Cards Pack - Rank: Rare]
A cloth pack containing 12 magic cards with unique powers.
The next.
[Magic Dice - Rank: unusual]
A six-sided dice that when played provide extra status points according to the die number. Disappears after use.
And last but not least.
[Middle Wind Stone - Rank: Rare]
A rare stone containing energy from the wind inside.
A lot of rare items, sure they would be very useful later. He would use this week until Pheles returned to practice as much as possible while his uncle and cousin did not come and his aunt spent most of the day drinking and
