Hogwarts: I've acquired the Father System

[Ding! Congratulations, host, you have gained +50 Holy Father Points.]

Ah this...

Could he possibly move a phoenix?

Darren was both amused and exasperated. In the end, he touched the little phoenix's featherless body and pushed it aside.

He took out his magic wand.

He already had some ideas about this magic wand.

In Journey to the West, the only item related to magic wands and dragons is Sun Wukong's golden cudgel.

Cough, because they are all sticks.

So you should say it out loud?

"May my wish be granted, may it come true quickly!"

The wand remained unchanged.

Darren smiled sheepishly, "I forgot, I forgot, this is from Calabash Brothers."

"The Ruyi Jingu Bang? Ruyi?"

[Ding! Congratulations, host, you have activated the Wish-Fulfilling Wand. The Wish-Fulfilling Wand can be transformed into any type of wand wood and its core can be changed at will.]

After acquiring master-level shapeshifting skills, one can freely transform into any kind of creature.

Ah this?

How could it be you?

Darren was shocked.

He had considered the possible identities of this Azure Dragon: gods, time travelers, reborn beings, but it turned out to be a system.

[Ding! Congratulations, host, you have found a hidden system easter egg. Your character panel is now open.]

Darren: "..."

System, next time you insist on rewarding me, you can be more direct!

Instead of making me pay 10,000 Galleons and buy it myself!

Unfortunately, the system ignored him.

Darren sighed and forgave the system for its unreasonable behavior this time.

P.S.: Although I know many young readers will complain about the character panel being too wordy, I'll still give an overall overview in this chapter.

Some of the rewards might be forgotten by everyone as they read, and sometimes even the author forgets them as they write.

The character panel will appear as infrequently as possible afterward.

Chapter Twenty-Five: Dark Magic Talent

Good guy!

Darren exclaimed, "Wow!"

His talent for dark magic is a whopping 9 points.

It’s over.

Barbie is Q.

He could already imagine the Sorting Hat's reaction at the opening ceremony.

On that day, Dumbledore will sit smiling in the headmaster's chair, watching the Sorting Hat sort him into his house.

Then he will hear these words.

The Sorting Hat: Hmm, hmm, hmm, the situation is a bit complicated, but it can't stump the great Sorting Hat... Azkaban!

Although it's a bit of an exaggeration, Darren really can't imagine what the consequences will be.

It's important to know that dark wizards are people with exceptionally strong talent in dark magic.

People without strong talent simply cannot learn it.

Darren was flustered for a while before he remembered that the Sorting Hat couldn't see his talents, only what he was thinking.

Perfect, he can continue to play the saint.

It really startled him.

[System, can these talents be increased?]

Darren suddenly thought of this problem.

He discovered that besides his talent for dark magic, he didn't seem to have much else.

Only potions are worth 6 points; everything else is worth 5 points or less.

[Ding! Host's talents can be increased using Sacred Father Points. One hundred Sacred Father Points can be exchanged for one talent. The maximum talent limit is one hundred.]

What?

Darren opened his mouth.

I thought talent was scored out of 10, but you're telling me it's scored out of 100?

[Ding! Wizarding talent can be developed. Through diligent study, reading, and hands-on experimentation, your talent can be increased.]

[Ding, all the new students' talents are below ten points. Please rest assured, host.]

Ah this...

I'm quite relieved, but I feel like magic still has a long way to go!

I wonder how much talent Dumbledore and his friends possess, and how quickly it increases? Is it as convenient as Darren's ability to increase it using Father Points?

Darren glanced at the character panel.

Darren's current value is 740, which is the result of his work over the past two days.

That means you can exchange for 7 talent points.

[System, convert 700 Father Points into Talent Points]

[Ding, redemption successful]

Darren didn't plan to add the seven talent points now; he intended to wait until class to add them.

After all, there aren't many yet, so we need to use them wisely.

After tidying up his things, Darren played with his magic wand for a while longer.

The Magic Wand can be transformed into the wood of other wands.

In other words, he wants to study medicine so that he can turn the magic wand into hawthorn wood.

If you want to learn herbalism, you can turn your wand into chestnut wood.

If you want to learn wand-making like Ollivander, or to craft a flying broom, you can turn your wand into birchwood.

When one desires immense power, one can transform the wand into elderberry, holly, aspen, larch, and so on...

As for increasing your luck, you can also turn it into a lucky wand made of fir wood.

The appearance remains unchanged, but the nature has changed.
