Wizardry System

When Chris left the bathroom, he saw Hermione and Kristine who were waiting for him.

"So how many points did McGonagall award you?" Kristine asked.

"10," Chris answered.

"What? Only 10? You used the Reductor Curse, an extremely complicated curse and she only awarded you as much as she took away from Hermione? I would have just let Ravenclaw win the House Cup if I was Professor McGonagall," Kristine said.

"Well unfortunately, I wasn't able to win us the House Cup," Chris said jokingly. Then he took out the book that he found in the bathroom.

"What's written inside?" Hermione asked.

"Well there's only one way to find out," Chris said as he opened the book. On the first page was only a riddle.

-I am something that's yours, but only others normally use it. What am I?-

(Gonna use - to show that it's writing inside a book.)

"A riddle," Kristine said.

"It doesn't look that hard," Hermione said.

However, the more they looked at the riddle, the harder it became.

"It seems so simple. The answer is right there, but I can't grasp it," Kristine said.

'System can I buy the answer to this riddle?' Chris asked.

[The answer to this riddle is not purchasable.]

Chris was a bit surprised by the answer.

'I thought that level 25 was high enough for something as simple as an answer to a riddle. What level do I have to be to buy the answer?' Chris asked.

[Host has a new mission: Figure out the Riddle. Stop asking the System for the answer.]

Quest: Find the answer to the riddle

Reward: 1 Galleon, 300 EXP, and 1 Wand Picking Ticket

'Holy! The reward is 1 Galleon?' Chris thought. His opinion of the mysterious book rose. 'This book must be important if the reward is a Galleon for just solving a riddle in it,'

"So what do you think Chris?" Kristine suddenly asked.

"What?" Chris asked.

"What do you think is the answer?" Kristine asked.

"This..." Chris was also stuck. He couldn't come up with an answer and it felt as if there was food right in front of him, but he was only centimeters off from reaching it.

"If it's something that everyone else uses then it must be something very simple. Otherwise there's no way that everyone else can use it," Hermione said.

"Furthermore, it's something that you don't use all that often either. Or else it would've specified that we use it as well," Chris added.

"Then it can't be an object since we would use it if we let others use it," Kristine said.

"If it isn't an object that what can it be?" Hermione asked. "I mean that's really the only thing that we let others use that's in our possession,"

...

Chris suddenly had an inspiration.

"No, objects aren't the only thing that can fit this. We can fit one more thing into this category," Chris said.

The girls looked confused and were looking at Chris anticipating the answer.

"Names! We have a name, but normally only other people use it to get our attention," Chris said.

Hermione and Kristine both widened their eyes.

"Agh! How can I forget about names?" Hermione questioned herself. "It was such a simple answer,"

"Well, I was right in thinking that the answer was quite simple," Kristine said.

Chris opened the book to the first page once more.

"The answer is a name," Chris said.

As soon as Chris answered the riddle, the riddle on the page disappeared. New sentences came to replace the riddle.

-You are correct. Although slow, the riddle has been solved.-

Chris was a bit irked at what the book said, but he didn't really pay too much attention to it.

The provocative sentence quickly disappeared adding new information.

-The secrets are now passed down to you. Will you find it?-

Chris tilted his head in confusion.

'What?' Chris flipped through the pages and on the next page, Chris found something.

-On the land of the free lies the foreign lady. She holds life itself and on top lies a piece of hope.-

Chris, Hermione, and Kristine were now even more confused.

"Close that book," Kristine said. "It's making my head hurt,"

Chris hurriedly closed the book and they all went back to the Ravenclaw Common Room where everyone started questioning where they were.

"Where were you guys?" Padma Parvati asked.

"Oh the professors called us out for something," Kristine quickly said. "It was related to school work,"

"Why would they talk to you guys about that right now when there's a troll waiting to eat students?" Padma asked.

"I don't know. They seem to be confident that they can put down the troll," Hermione said.

"Alright then," Padma said even though she still had a bit of suspicion.

"Alright let's eat, I'm still starving," Chris said as his meal was cut off a bit short by the troll. He and the the two girls went to the place where the food was at and saw that there was bȧrėly enough food for the 3 of them. They quickly ate and went back to their dorms.

...

On his bed, Chris got his rewards.

'Alright, it's time to choose my next wand,' Chris thought as he activated the Wand Picking Ticket.

[Wand Picking Ticket activated. Host will now be given the choice of 10 random wands.]

'Alright lord, please give me a good one,' Chris thought as the 10 wands were being shown.
