Chapter 7: Meeting the Weasleys
It was a hellish month for me. I had to learn Pure Blood etiquette, dancing, which forks and spoons I need to use and when to use them, poise and a bunch of other stuff crammed into my brain like common charms for day to day use. It's like High Society training but with magic. Also learned the trace is not applied until we go to Hogwarts and that it doesn't activate around magic filled places such as Diagon Alley.
I was given few breaks and an hour before my designated bed time, which he insisted on, to read my books and respond to the letters I had received over the years. It was funny that both Draco and Ginny wrote to me when they were younger. My letters began with apologizing for not writing back sooner as I was just reintroduced to the magic world, thanking them for their gifts and letters, no that I do not live in a castle or ride dragons (yet), and for some like Draco and Ginny that I was looking forward to attend Hogwarts with them.
Gotta say my archmage essence really helped in learning spells. As I learned that not just seeing spells I can learn instantly but by reading about spells I can learn instantly too. Sadly they won't sell me books above fourth year since those are OWLS and NEWT subjects.
I learned many things from grandfather that weren't in the books I read. He is a strict but fair teacher. Though when I got things wrong he used a stinging hex on me to 'Help me learn better'. Though I disliked it he was kind of right as I never made the mistake again.
I also used the Mystery Egg and got a Charmander. I had to explain to my very shocked grandfather that I found the egg at the orphanage near the cliffs and that it just hatched. I had him register the Charmander as my familiar. Which got me 3 draws from the system for obtaining my first familiar though I saved the draws until the first of the month. It's easy to recognize a familiar since they take the owners egg color and Charmanders eyes were just like mine the moment he saw me. Grandfather was happy because the last True Familiar was Fawkes with Dumbledore. Having a true familiar was a sign of status. Sure owls and other animals can be considered pseudo familiars as they have a bond with their owners but they lack the link of a true familiar bond. It's said that Merlin had a dragon for a true familiar.
Interesting fact, all true familiars are protected by law. Meaning no one can take them from you no matter what it is or try to kill them. In fact the very act of trying to do so is punishment for Azkaban or death by veil or Dementers kiss. By the way my Charmander is female and likes spicy foods. Which anyone who knows the games will know that Charmander females are uncommon and rare. Hell I can even put it away and release it whenever I want since the egg also produced a Luxury Ball. I named her Sara.
Anyway back to the present it is now the first of the September my gacha gained ten draws but I am waiting to use them. Grandfather sent me off with a pat on my shoulder. Telling me not to forget my lessons and to do above very best in school so I don't embarrass my lineage. Drippy dropped me off at the train station but not at the Hogwarts Express so I had to make my way to 9 and ¾ by myself.
As luck would have it I did run into the Weasley's so I walk to them and ask them "Hello, I couldn't help but notice you are magicals. Could you direct me to the platform?" of course I knew where it was hell even grandfather told me but I saw an excuse to interact with them
"Such a polite young boy! Of course dear. See that pillar? The entrance is right there. You may want to take a running start." Said Mrs. Weasley
"Thank you. I'm Harry Potter by the way"
And cue the exclamations of "No way!" "Really?" "Oh you poor dear" and "eep" though the last one was from Ginny as she hid behind her mother. To prove myself I merely brush aside my hair showing my scar, which I swear I will remove one day as it is a blemish on my looks.
"Yes Way. And you are?"
"Sorry dear. I'm Molly Weasley and these are my children. Percy, Fred, George, Ron, who will be going to Hogwarts this year, and my youngest Ginny"
"Nice to meet you. Ginny? Didn't I send a letter to Ginny Weasley just this month?"
"Y-yes. Thank you." said Ginny peeking out from behind her mother. I smile and pat her on the head
"No problem. I had a lot of letters to respond too."
"Where have you been?" Asked Fred, or maybe George.
"I was raised in a muggle orphanage though the last month was spent with my great grandfather" I notice their confusion when I spoke of a great granfather
"Oh you poor dear." Said Mrs. Weasley
"It's fine Mrs. Weasley. I grew up safe and happy. I even got to play a bunch of instruments and win music competitions for it."
"You can play music?" Asked Ginny who now came out from behind her mother
"Indeed I can. Maybe I will play a song for you some day" She blushes when I say that "Anyway shouldn't we be making our way to the train?"
"Oh I almost forgot. Hurry along children." Says Mrs. Weasley.
With that we entered the pillar and came out on the other side where I get my first sight of the Express
"Well it was nice meeting you all. I hope we can all be friends. I'm going to board while you say your goodbyes." with that I went inside the train and picked a room that was empty.
Now that I am alone I draw my 13 gachas.

Hm I certainly got a bunch of stuff from Battle Through The Heavens this time. Let's check the information about the most interesting items.
Skill: Mage Sight: Allows one to see and sense magical energy. From Mana, Magicules, and even Ethernano you now have the ability to see and sense it. Helps the absorption of these particles. Does not change eye color.
A perfect skill for any magic user especially when I go to worlds like Fairy Tail or Tensura or even Skyrim.
Ten Thousand Best Cauldron: A medicinal cauldron with the carvings of many beast etched on it that look real. If you listen closely you can hear the roars. One of the cauldrons on the Heavenly Cauldron Rankings.
Useful for pill making so I can finally use Alchemy from martial arts worlds.
Yao Chen's Ring: Yao Chens ring containing the soul of Yao Chen. Enhanced to carry everything that Yao Chen ever had in life.
Hah! Now I can practice using Dou Qi! With a mentor in alchemy to boot! Who knows how many alchemy creations, skills, recipes, items, and techniques this man has had over his life
Assortment of Common Farm Animals: One breeding pair of every farm animal known on Earth.
Now I don't have to buy them myself. Plus with my dimension the breeding pairs can multiply quickly with no chance of incest causing defects in them.
Assortment of Alchemy Inegredients: One of each Alchemy related items from Battle Through The Heavens. Includes not only seeds and plants but also contains one of every beast core type from level 1 to 9
Oh my Merlin! This is a huge windfall for me! Those seeds and plants will quickly multiply and the sheer number of beast cores is astonishing.
Nintendo Switch: A pair of Nintendo Switches with every game ever made from Nintendo excluding ones from Gamecube, Nintendo 3DS, Nintendo DS, Wii, and Wii U. Has unlimited battery and internet. Is unbreakable.
Perfect for relieving boredom and I can give one to someone else so we can play together.
Fallen Heart Flame: A Heavenly Flame ranked 14th on the Heavenly Flame Rankings. Has the ability to nurture the soul and increase the absorption of dou qi. Has mental effects on weak willed and lower level enemies.
'Hey Sis?'
[Yes Host]
'Can I even absorb this?'
[Yes Host. Essence of Blank makes the body extremely adaptable to all kinds of advancements including absorption of Heavenly Flames and other Beast Fires]
'That's good to know. But I don't think I can contain it at my current level'
[True Host. Sis says to get stronger quickly to use the Flame]
'Thank you Sis'
Skill: Minor Telepathy: Allows host to hear surface thoughts and talk telepathically with others over a short distance. Host is advised to learn how to control this quickly or he will be overwhelmed by the many thoughts of people around him. Skill can evolve to higher levels of Telepathy if trained
This will be useful for keeping a covert talk with someone or something. Plus information is power.
Random Pokemon Eggs: Two Pokemon eggs that contain 1 Pokemon from the over 1000 types of Pokemon available from Kanto to Paldea. No incubation required, just blood.
Interesting I wonder what the two Pokemon will be. I quickly pop into my dimension and unload the farm animals, the seeds and plants, and the two Pokemon eggs. I use my God like ability, only useful in this dimension, to plant and separate all the creatures and plants. Then I drop some blood on the eggs. Which glow bright before two new Pokemon appear before me. A Miltank and a Tauros (Paldea Version). Another breeding pair. So I will never run out of Moomoo milk! I name the Miltank MooMoo and Tauros Tank. They also became my Familiars.
Luckily my dimension will bring all my plants and animals rapidly to their peak self. Hell I can already see the seeds and the vegetables from the magical and muggle world had already grown to full size. Hell even the seeds I just planted are sprouting
Well I guess the only thing left to do is talk to Yao Chen.
