Wizardry System

Chris got on the train and immediately found an empty compartment. He put his stuff away and quietly sat down.

Surprisingly, he realized that his parents who were so doting on him for the past month were not waiting in front of the train like a lot of the parents did.

"I mean it's fine, but I'm surprised that clingy mother of mine would not wait," Chris thought. After a couple of minutes, the compartment door opened and he saw someone who he did not expect to see. It was a young girl that was quite familiar to Chris.

"Hello there," The young girl greeted.

"Hello," Chris greeted back.

"My name is Hermione. Hermione Granger," She said as she put her stuff away and sat down.

"My name is Chris Evergreen. It's a pŀėȧsurė to meet you Hermione," Chris said. He was quite surprised as there was only at best a 5% chance that he would end up in the same compartment as her.

There was an awkward silence before Hermione quickly broke it.

"Isn't it great that underneath the Muggle world, there's the fascinating world of magic? I mean when I went to Diagon Alley, I was completely shocked,"

"Yeah it is really nice," Chris said. He quickly checked Hermione's status.

Magical Power: 100

"Hmm... she has quite the magical power for her age. I mean I suppose she did practice a lot so that she can use spells like Reparo,"

Hermione continued to talk to him until another person opened the compartment door. It was Neville Longbottom.

"Hello there. Is it alright to sit here?" He asked timidly.

"Hello there. Of course, it's alright," Hermione said with a smile.

Chris nodded and Neville quickly put away his luggage and sat down next to Chris.

"Name's Neville Longbottom," Neville said.

"Hermione Granger,"

"Chris Evergreen,"

"Woah you're the heir to the Evergreen Family," He asked with an astounded face.

"Oh no," Chris thought before he answered him.

"Yes I'm from the Evergreen Family," Chris said with a smile.

"Oh my goodness, your father is my hero. Valiantly fought against You-Know-Who's army of Death Eater and he's as much of a hero as Barty Crouch. However, not only is he strong, he has a huge company worth millions of Galleons!" Chris was actually quite surprised that the timid Neville was actually speaking so loudly. It seemed that his father can even change the most timid of person.

Hermione's eyes lit up.

"Ahh, I knew you were familiar. Your father was in the contemporary history book that I read. So you're the son of Bradley Evergreen. Truth be told, you really do look like him," Hermione said as she started to inspect him.

"Yeah I do get that a lot," Chris said.

The train started to leave. The three of them started conversing and there was the occasional laugh from Hermione when Chris would tell a joke. Suddenly Neville started to scream.

"Ahhh! Trevor's gone!" Neville shouted.

"Calm down Neville. Who's Trevor?" Hermione asked.

"My pet frog. He was a gift from my uncle. I've always been scolded and punished for not showing magical power and when I did, it was the first time that they were so proud of me that they would gift me something. He's really precious," Neville said.

"How do you lose something that's so precious to you?" Hermione asked bewildered. "If I had something that precious, I would always keep a good eye on it,"

"I honestly don't have very good memory and I'm not really too observant so I lose things very well. There are way too many things that I've lost over the years," Neville said as tears started showing.

"Alright we'll help you find Trevor. Chris will you help us?" Hermione asked.

Chris was about to agree before he heard a message from the System.

[Quest has been given. Find Neville's Frog. Although the frog will be found eventually, isn't it better if the crying Neville is soothed?"]

Quest: Find Neville's Frog

Neville's Frog: 0/1

Reward: 2 Sickles and 80 EXP

"Hmm... compared to the Use Practice Room (2) which required me to use the practice room 10 times, the reward is quite good," Chris thought.

"Oh yes, I remember that there was a spell perfect for this," Chris thought as he went to the Wizarding Book. It was a spell not shown in the book or the movie, but he found it while browsing through the Wizarding Book. He didn't buy it at the time because it was too expensive, but as soon as he got the money, he forgot about the spell.

Finding Charm (Inveniet): Is able to search anything within a short radius.

Price: 1 Sickle

"It seems that the System does not want to reward me too much money. In essence, I'm only getting 1 Sickle. Well I get both EXP and magical power by getting this spell so it's not too bad," Chris thought as he quickly bought it. The details of the spell entered his mind and after a couple of seconds passed, Chris finally learned the Finding Charm.

[Host has learned the Finding Charm. 50 EXP will be awarded. 211 EXP needed to level up. Money remaining: 3 G 14 S 18K.]

"That's quite generous," Chris thought. He quickly took out his wand and cast the Finding Charm.

"Inveniet Trevor," He chanted. Soon information about the whereabouts of Trevor entered Chris' mind.

"It's in a compartment in my direction," Chris thought. He quickly went to the compartment to retrieve Trevor who was just sitting there like nothing happened. The people in the compartment were nice and helped him retrieve Trevor. To Chris, it was the easiest Sickle he has ever earned.
