Hogwarts: Hermione and I switched identities!

Page 5

“Hogwarts,” Hermione said.

The air suddenly became quiet.

Sheehan: "Students can't use any magic on campus... I mean, they can't perform any magic tricks?"

"Apparition or Apparition," Hermione replied.

Sheen hurriedly flipped through the book in his hands: "What would happen if a boy entered the girls' dormitory?"

"This is absolutely not allowed. If they do this, the stairs will turn into a slide, and the boys' butts will slide down to the ground and split in two. The whole school will know that a boy has entered the girls' dormitory."

Sheen already had a plan in mind, but she hadn't given up on the idea yet.

Sheehan closed the book and put it aside: "I hope my teacher is a humorous and interesting gentleman, one of the things he should know is how to do magic tricks."

She placed a quill pen on the table: "Can you make it fly?"

Hermione could use a wand if she had one, but she doesn't have one right now; Hermione's wand is still at home!

She couldn't guarantee anything, and could only say, "I'll try my best."

Relaxing, Hermione gazed at the feather, silently imagining what it meant.

Calm down, Hermione, calm down.

It's just a levitation spell; I can do it even without a wand.

The book says that some wizards can use low-level magic even without a wand, and the Levitation Charm is the simplest of low-level spells.

"Wingardium Leviosa!" (Levitation Spell)

Hermione saw the feather on the table twitch, fly upwards, and sway.

However, the feathers fell down before it reached halfway up the mountain.

“I’m sorry, I can’t do that right now.” Hermione sighed. “I’m sorry to have bothered you gentlemen, I will…”

“You’ve passed!” Sheehan said.

Sheehan stood up and took Hermione's hand: "Mom, this gentleman! I need this gentleman to tutor me!"

"Your name……"

"Tom, Tom Riddle."

“Welcome, Mr. Riddle.” Sheehan was very happy.

He had previously told his parents that he had seen magic and that there were magic schools in this world, but his parents thought he was crazy and said it was just a teenager's fantasy.

“Riddle, I remember you’re still in the orphanage, aren’t you?” Michelangelo suddenly asked.

She kept her eyes straight ahead, ignoring the jealous yet panicked look in Lawrence's eyes behind her.

“Mr. Riddle, would you like to live with me? I mean, I'm currently looking to adopt a child, and I think you would be a good fit, young man. What do you think?”

Michelangelo extended an invitation to Hermione.

Lawrence's face immediately turned ashen, as if he had swallowed a fly.

Chapter 4 Letters

Tom Riddle found the post office, where he learned that the Saint Redia Welfare Home also existed in this world.

In other words, Hermione may be controlling her own body and causing a ruckus in the orphanage.

Thinking about Hermione's personality... Tom rubbed his temples.

He felt Hermione could make the children at the orphanage cry.

Especially Misha.

After Misha was abandoned by her parents, she clung to him all day long. He was no different from Misha's brother. If Hermione was a little harsh with her... Misha would really cry.

I hope the letter will be sent soon.

And... who knows if this body will have another "time travel" so that he and Hermione can return to it again.

Tom wrote down the address and recipient, and paid extra for expedited delivery.

Then, back home, Tom waved his wand and continued practicing magic.

If this world were the magical world of Hogwarts, then many things would exist.

Voldemort, Death Eaters, werewolves, Fantastic Beasts!

Don't be fooled by how easy the movie portrays it. The villain Rocky, a first-year student, is easily defeated by Harry Potter. In his second year, Harry draws his greatsword to slay the snake. In his third year...

but!

The villain Quirrell is a true two-faced man; the Dark Lord Voldemort is possessing him.

The second-grade basilisk is someone who will die if you look at them even once; you absolutely cannot look them in the eye.

Okay, a snake that you absolutely must not look into.

The big boss Voldemort had many hellish jokes in his past life—Voldemort actually killed hundreds of people, so... what about tomorrow?

Joking aside, Tom used to joke about Voldemort even before he faced him, but if Tom actually ran into him...

Tom desperately wanted to live!

Although the headmaster of Hogwarts is the most powerful white wizard of the time—Dumbledore.

He wanted to protect the students, he wanted to protect many people, but Tom knew that Mr. Dumbledore would eventually die, and he couldn't protect everyone.

The only one who can protect you is yourself; only by becoming strong can you survive.

Speaking of my name...

Tom Riddle...I think Voldemort also has that name.

What if that madman goes insane one day and kills me too?

Tom became more and more motivated.

Strive and work hard!

In his previous life, he was caught up in a life-or-death struggle and died suddenly. Now that he's a wizard, he shouldn't die suddenly in this life.

Tom already knows the limits of humanity, but he knows nothing about the limits of wizards.

Come on, let me see where your limits are!

……

By evening, Tom was completely exhausted.

Tom was starting to feel overwhelmed by the long hours of magic practice, and in the end, all his practice ratings became "average".

The rate at which experience is gained also drops rapidly.

Tom ate the flower cakes he had brought back from the restaurant, then sat in the hall with a copy of "Potions and Magic" in his arms. The light from the chandelier was adjusted just right for his eyes.

This is a book about potion-making.

At Hogwarts, there is one professor whose position has always been secure—Severus Snape, who has always been the most hated professor by the students, without exception.

Snape was the potions professor for the first year. In his potions class, Snape would only teach you to chop the herbs, pour them into a cauldron, and stir them.

But he didn't say how finely to chop it, or whether to stir clockwise or counterclockwise, or how many times to stir.

Professor Snape will only scold you and deduct points from your score when you make a mistake, and then tell you the correct answer—or he might not even tell you the correct answer.

Tom needs to study first, so he won't get scolded in his class later.

[You have completed one learning session. Rating: Average. Potions +10.]

It was late at night, and the veins on Tom's forehead were throbbing, indicating that he had reached his mental limit.

This body is still too frail.

Before taking a bath, Tom did some simple exercise for a short while.

Squats, push-ups, sit-ups, and pull-ups done using the doorway.

Of course, he couldn't even sit up in a single pull-up.

After an hour of exercise, Tom took a hot shower to wash away the sweat before climbing into bed and falling asleep, exhausted.

……

London.

Hermione declined Mr. Michelangelo's invitation.

She realized something after seeing Sheehan today.
