Chapter 1: Transmigrated?

'I was…'

'Oh…'

Memories. A lot of memories. But the interesting thing about these memories is that it belongs to two different people.

One from a hopeful teen with a lot of dreams and an unfortunate end.

Other from the child that lives in this cupboard, a sick love-starved child with a tremendous need for any paternal figure to come a take him away.

A child that sometimes strange things occur near him when he was in a high emotional state.

A child that is also known as the 'boy-who-lived' in a wizard old-like civilisation.

Harry Potter.

'Fuck.'

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Syrme's body quickly stood out to the side and threw up all the remaining little food his stomach had.

'This was not what I expected from dying.'

With his hands, he wiped his blurry eyes, but no matter how much he tried to wash his tears, his vision was still blurry.

'Oh, right. Harry needed glasses.'

The glasses were in the small hole near Ted and Clary, the spider-friends of harry.

Meanwhile, Syrme thoughts were still one hundred per minute.

'A second chance? Did my soul somehow end up in the body of Harry Potter after dying? If so, then what happened to the real owner of the body?'

Then memories came up again.

'These people... How can such people get away so easily after all the things they did to him!'

'The beatings, insults, psychological jabs and utterly starvation and abuse the poor kid had to suffer. J. K Rowling would be pulling her hairs out if she had to see this.'

'Harry Potter didn't die in the books.'

'In fact, Harry Potter shouldn't be this much abused.'

'Ignored and despised, maybe. Sometimes little jabs from these people wouldn't surprise anyone, but everything from the memories says otherwise.'

Several conclusions from this.

1- The books omitted a lot of things, but if Harry died, then the books could be wrong.

2- This could be a parallel universe where Harry died, not that rare if me being here is real.

3- If this is a parallel universe, then a lot of information about the future I read from the book could also be wrong.

4- I have to plan a lot of things from here.

'I am punished in here for at least three days, I am currently six years old and I... hope that I have magic because if I don't have magic and I am stuck here, then I will be dead for real this time.'

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Syrme spent all day getting comfortable with the System and all the options available in it. As expected, the Dursleys didn't open the cupboard and left him without food and fresh air. The first skill he wanted to get by reasonable means or buy in the store was [Occlumency: The Arts Of the Mind].

He was a bookworm in his first life, so the two books he received from the gift were finished in a matter of a few hours.

Now he is trying to meditate and organise the mind in hopes to get the skill.

'This is getting nowhere. Maybe I am doing something wrong.'

'Let see, I know for a fact that it is possible to get this skill, and the skill is useful and necessary.'

'But people with no magic can't get this skill or are not aware of it. Maybe it has to do more with magic than I thought?'

Syrme tried to concentrate the feeling of his magical core in the bottom of his stomach.

'Here it is, now redirect this magic/feeling to my mind.'

Magic in the world of Harry Potter is bizarre. But at the same time, it makes sense, because it answers to the wishes of the wielder. Like the magic itself was alive and helping. You can't control magic. You have to tell the magic in which direction should be headed to help.

'[Intent], that's the clue for the magic of this world. But if I want to cross with darker magic, then the keyword would be [Emotions]'

Directing the magic to the mind. He spent hours with two thoughts in his mind. Over and over again.

'I want to protect my mind.'

'I want to organise my mind.'

At some point, he realised he wasn't in his cupboard. The place in front of him was like a castle, somewhat like Hogwarts but at the same time different.

'Did I apparate myself? But my intent was something different. I didn't want to go somewhere else.'

'Wait'

Syrme knew something was wrong with this picture.

There was no moon and no stars in spite of being at night.

'Mindscape.'

'So fast going into the Mindscape? I thought at first I had to spend a lot of time practising the skill.'

'Maybe it has to do with my Origin: Dreams and Knowledge.'

'Let's check if this is my mindscape.'

Suddenly, walls appeared around the castle, as tall as the castle itself. Then around the walls, the floor started to replace itself with a long green river.

'Confirmed.'

'Now, to work.'
