Skyrim System In Harry Potter World

I am an idiot… No other explanation… JUST wanna die.

I was waiting for so long to improve my studying tier 1 ability and even postponed my experiment with using books from library in case upgrade can give some bonuses, but …

〖Remarkable Comprehension 1/3 (30)〗

I needed level 30 to upgrade it and not 25. Damn it all. I must have mistaken it with the speech ability. How the heck did I forget about it? It is so exasperating and worst of all, I could have checked it any time, but I was so self-assured that didn't even bother.

Thankfully nobody will ever know about my stupid mistake. And I myself will never write it in my biography. Never!

For the next 10 minutes I was berating myself and thinking how stupid I am. However, I needed to focus on the task of picking useful abilities and thankfully there were some new abilities from magic skill trees and tier 2 abilities in old trees.

*15 minutes later*

『 Magic Theory 』

〖Better concentration 1/2 (45)〗

〖Increase in concentration during any use of magic. Helps in casting magic and focusing power.〗

『 Magic Gesturing 』

〖Less Gestures 1/2 (50)〗

〖It is easier to learn to use simple magic without using gestures. Spells you know well and studied for a long time can be used without gestures subconsciously.〗

I stopped on those 2 abilities, because they can increase my personal strength in an absolute way. New abilities from Speech, Alchemy, Herbology and other skills were incredible as well, but I was leveling slowly and no matter, what I needed first is to ensure my survival. That's why, whatever can increase my strength or help me in a dire situation is going to be a first pick.

I expect it to be great. Otherwise I will go for Magic Chanting ability.

After that, I checked time at Gryffindor common room. And yes, there was apparently clock there. I have no idea why I didn't notice it before.

It was 8pm. Just enough to experiment with 'using' library books before curfew.

While going to the library, I was counting how many books I finished during this period and apparently it was a big number. Thanks to fast reading, better comprehension and memory I could breeze through most of books, while still having a good level of comprehension.

Finally, I finished counting and the number was staggering 51 books.

'Wow… Is that 51 skill raises I am seeing here. Hope system won't fuċk me up by creating some stupid reason for not being able to use these books.'

While on my way on to library, I decide to check my saves and deleted second and third saves. The ones that I created right after appearing here. One of them was before answering Hagrid and the other one after a first level up. I did not need them now.

I decided to delete them because my space for saves was close to null. Before deleting, I had only 2 free slots for saves. Having more save slots makes me feel safer, plus I do not want to make a mistake in the future and accidently overwrite an important save.

While doing all that I reached library and went for the books I've finished reading and the first one was about wand making. Just to have a returning point, in case books somehow charmed, I saved.

First, I put a book into an inventory. Then I waited for a 5 or maybe 10 minutes. Nothing happened. Thank god, it's safe.

Then I focused on the taken book, to see options on how I can interact with. Thankfully, I could use it, so no problem there.

'Use'

『 Wand Making 19 ➔ 20 』

It worked! Oh my god, you woke a leveling beast here. Let the leveling spree begin.

*30 minutes later*

'System show me my progress since entering a library, excluding first raise in wand making.'

[Affirmative. Collecting information… Modifying output… Compressing information… Done! Outputting…]

『 ➣ Skills progress:

Magic Chanting 15 ➔ 20 | Magic Theory 18 ➔ 30 |

Herbology 20 ➔ 22 | Alchemy 20 ➔ 23 | Astronomy 19 ➔ 20 |

Wand Making 20 ➔ 26 | Riding Expertise 18 ➔ 20 |

➣ New Spells added to your spellbook:

Mending Charm | Smokescreen spell | Severing charm |

Curse of the Bogies | Knockback Jinx |

Wand-Lighting Charm | Un-Transfiguration Spell

➣ Level Up 』

'Wow, feels great!'

However, I did experience 2 unexpected things during 'Use' spree.

First, is that magical books apparently provide one skill and at first I thought it provides the skill that is mainly discussed in the book. Like magic book mainly discusses gestures of the wand than I will get increase in gesturing, but later I found out that it is not true.

I was unable to read many books about magic channeling, because they are pretty scarce, or I was just unlucky in finding them. Anyway, I got an increase in it from books that bȧrėly even scratch that topic. Apparently, system gives a raise randomly out of 3 magic skills.

However, that is not true for magic theory. Books that focus on magical theory give only magic theory skill. So far, at least.

Second surprise was that some magical books in place of skill raise provide a spell that was being discussed in the book in detail. For example, one book about transfiguration and how to cancel its effects gave me "Un-Transfiguration Spell".

Overall, I got 7 spells and 44 skill raises just in pathetic 30 minutes. That makes my previous 2 months of work look worthless. My feelings were mixed, indeed.

Well, whatever. I am not sure about how many levels I got, because after receiving a notification about a level up, it stopped appearing.

Time to go to room and check new abilities and spend experience.

*An hour later*

『 Level 12 ➣ Not enough experience 』

『 Magicka ➣ Improvement : 7 ➔ 11 』

『 Stamina ➣ Improvement : 0 』

『 Number of skill points: 2 』

My level rose to 12, but that was not the most important thing here.

I double checked the new skills I got, because I still couldn't believe the prospects they bring.

『 Magic Theory 』

〖Empowering〗

〖Great knowledge of theory allows you to make magic you wield increase or decrease in effect, masterfully controlling amount of magic you channel for it. Degree of change in the amount depends on Magic Theory level.〗

『 Magic Channeling 』

〖You can change concentration of magic you channel to make you increase absolute power or slightly change properties(e.g. Concentrate a ray in an arrow). Degree of concentration depends on Magic Channeling level.〗

『 Magic Chanting 』

〖Less Chants 1/2 (50)〗

〖It is easier to learn to use simple magic without using chants. Spells you know well and studied for a long time can be used without chants subconsciously. If you mastered spell and can cast its chantless version, chanting such a spell will increase its power.〗

Using all that even small Incendio that used to light a fire can be used as a deadly ray of flame or flamethrower. Of course, the basis for that is to learn and master spells enough to start experimenting with casting them.

Now I understand how in films people were casting spells differently in different moments. Spell 'Avada Kedavra' for example sometimes was used like a ray and others like an arrow or a bullet shot. This explains a lot.

Plus, doing chantless and gesturless magic will be cool. Though I expect wandless magic won't come soon. After all, wands became such a popular instrument not without a reason.

And now that I got a ton of new spells, I can practice them and hopefully master some of them.

Also, tomorrow will be a last day before a Halloween. Where the heck is that troll? In the film, troll attacked before the first Quidditch match and after dog discovery. I am waiting for so long. October nearly finished. I remember it should be after charms lesson with Levitation charm, but when it's going to be, no idea.

I am happy to have more time to prepare, but what if troll never appeared in book and it was just a film thing? I am a bit anxious.

Ah, whatever. Today I saved twice, and I have only 2 slots again. I will remove save when I picked first abilities for now. You never know when you will need saves and in the moment of need, I might not have time to pick what to delete. So better have more slots.

Or am I too careful…? Ah, whatever! Now to sleep.
