I'm at Hogwarts, what the heck is this Primordial System?

The giant monster released ahead of schedule in Chapter 51 is really terrible.

With a whisper, several new messages appeared in the rewards section on the system screen.

Rhine also felt the changes these rewards brought to his body.

First, Filch's exceptional hearing and crane-like physique made Rhine feel that his senses were much sharper than before, and he could hear many more sounds.

Even her body felt much lighter, and her steps were more agile than before.

Then came Professor McGonagall's gift of creation, which allowed Rhine to immediately feel its enhancement effect on Transfiguration.

The changes in all things seemed to manifest in Rhine's mind as if by instinct.

Previously, with Rhine's magical power and his mastery of transformation, turning a table into a cat tree was already the limit.

He was still far from being able to perform shapeshifting, but now, although Rhine's magical power had not changed, his skill in shapeshifting had undergone a qualitative change thanks to his talent.

He pulled a match left over from his Transfiguration class from his pocket and waved his staff.

The next second, a strange feeling welled up in Rhine's heart, and then the matchstick turned into a chubby silkworm, staring at Rhine with its big, round eyes.

With another wave of her staff, Rhine transformed the silkworm back into a pupa wrapped in pure white silk threads.

When the staff was waved one last time, the silkworm pupa transformed back into a large blue morpho butterfly, fluttering its dazzling wings and dancing in the bathroom.

A moment later, it landed on Rhine's finger and turned back into a match.

Rhine's eyes lit up with delight.

Although it's not the Seventy-Two Transformations of the Primordial Era, the feeling of all things transforming is truly wondrous, just like the Creator.

A thought immediately came to Rhine.

Previously, in Diagon Alley, he used the Fire Control talent in combination with Blazing Fire to cleverly create a knock-off version of Vulcan's Way.

But now that his Transfiguration skills have greatly improved, perhaps the power of Vulcan's path-clearing technique will also increase accordingly?

However, the bathroom was not a place to experiment, so Rhine temporarily suppressed the idea and focused his attention on the talent that Neville had contributed to him.

The skillful use of agricultural techniques can greatly enhance Rhineland's understanding of soil properties and has a unique advantage in crop cultivation.

Rhine focused his attention and immediately felt its effect.

"The soil under the washroom is damp and fertile, suitable for growing shade-loving plants, such as devil's web..."

For a herbalist like Professor Sprout, this talent would be a tremendous asset.

Rhine's eyes gleamed with anticipation.

If I can obtain some plants that will help my cultivation in the future, I might be able to use this talent to help cultivate them.

Then, Rhine focused all his attention on the Earth Spirit Primordial Spirit talent.

This talent pleased Rhine even more than the ability to create all things.

By drawing upon the power of the earth's veins to enhance their own strength, they can even extract spiritual energy from the earth...

The effect was truly immediate!

As soon as her feet touched the ground, Rhine felt as if the earth and soil were welcoming her.

Wisps of rich, powerful energy flowed from the earth into Rhine's body.

A portion of it flowed through Rhine's body, making him feel that his already powerful physique had become even more robust, and his physical strength could be exerted even more under the blessing of the earth's vein power!

At the same time, a portion of the powerful energy flowed into Rhine's body, most of which nourished his physique, while a small portion gradually increased his magical power.

Rhein's heart skipped a beat.

"This is also spiritual energy? It's different from the spiritual energy I used to absorb from the sky. It's not that cool, refreshing airflow, but rather thick and heavy."

"That's right. Previously, I was absorbing spiritual energy related to wind, but now I'm absorbing it with my earth spirit, which is earth-elemental spiritual energy. It's normal that the nature is different."

"Huh? If one day I could gather all the talents that can absorb spiritual energy of various attributes and then fuse them together, perhaps I could obtain a powerful talent that encompasses the five elements?"

"Maybe by then, I'll even be qualified to practice supernatural powers like the Five-Colored Divine Light!"

However, after a moment, Rhine shook his head, dismissing the unrealistic fantasies from his mind.

With the limited amount of spiritual energy he's currently absorbing, let alone the Five-Colored Divine Light, he still can't even refine the Five-Colored Stone, which isn't particularly powerful.

There is a long way to go!

Fortunately, I have a long enough lifespan to continue collecting talents and training. Maybe one day I can truly become an immortal in this magical world!

Then, Rhine remembered that the Flying Tiger Strategy he had obtained contained a simple cultivation method.

The Earth Spirit Primordial Spirit's innate ability is to passively absorb the spiritual energy of the earth's veins. If combined with a method like the Flying Tiger Military Strategy, which actively absorbs spiritual energy, the efficiency will be greatly increased.

Immediately, Rhine began to regulate his breathing according to the principles of the Flying Tigers strategy.

His chest sometimes rose high and sometimes sank, and his breathing became incredibly long, as if time itself had been forgotten.

With her keen intellect, Rhine entered the meditative state that all cultivators in the primordial world dream of when she first practiced the Flying Tiger Strategy, forgetting herself and the world!

In this state, the earth vein energy surging into Rhine's body immediately increased several times more than before.

The golden luster on Rhine's body, derived from the innate talent of the Vajra Body, began to slowly increase, becoming even more dazzling and radiant than before.

His magical power also began to rise steadily under the influence of spiritual energy, and its efficiency was much faster than when he used the talent of eating wind and drinking dew!

Just as Rhine was immersed in this state, an unimaginable stench began to pour into the washroom from the corridor.

The stench was so intense that even Rhine, who was immersed in a meditative state, changed his expression and woke up.

Rhine was utterly shocked.

No, which guy jumped on me?

How can it smell so bad?

What did they eat?!

The latest novel is first published here!

Unable to bear it any longer, Rhine pinched his nose and waved his staff.

"Completely cleaned up!"

A whirlwind swept up, blowing away the stench in the air, and Rhine felt much better.

The next moment, heavy footsteps shook the ground violently, and muffled murmurs, inhuman and indistinct, rang out, as if drawn by the sound of Rhine chanting a spell, and moved toward the washroom.

The stench was getting stronger and stronger.

Rhein frowned.

"This is……"

"A troll?!"

"Shouldn't it have been released on Halloween? Quirrell released it early?"

……

Meanwhile, a dinner party was being held in the Great Hall of Hogwarts.

The young wizards, who had just finished their first day of class, were talking about the lessons with either excitement or lingering fear.

Harry, Ron, Hermione, and Neville sat together.

Hermione looked around and couldn't help but ask.

"Where's Rhine?"

Has anyone seen him?

Neville scratched his head sheepishly and said something.

"After the herbalism class, Rhine said his stomach hurt and went to the restroom."

"He also told me to tell you not to wait for him, to eat first... I forgot what he said."

Just as Hermione and the others were sighing over Neville's poor memory, Professor Quirrell burst into the dinner party with a scream.

"A troll—in the classroom on the ground—"

"I thought you knew, Dumbledore!"

After saying that, Quirrell collapsed to the floor and passed out.

The auditorium erupted into chaos as the professors tried to get the unruly young wizards back to their dormitories.

At this moment, Hermione's face turned deathly pale, and she exclaimed to Professor McGonagall.

"Professor McGonagall, Rhine, Rhine has a stomachache. He's in the restroom on that floor. He doesn't know about the trolls yet!"

Professor McGonagall's expression changed abruptly.

"Oh no!"

"This is terrible!"

There's one more chapter coming up a little later. I'm taking the train home today, so I didn't have time to write two chapters this morning. I'll post it this afternoon. Wishing everyone a safe journey home for the New Year!
