Egypt and Gnomes.

[Congratulations to the host for completing the first mission 'Get out of the castle and own a custom wand.]

[Rewards given. Ability to check the status and progress of the wizard. Teachers black dress robes.]

"What, kind of rewards are these. Doesn't the status checker come along with the system and what is up with these dress robes?" Leo asked.

[No the system does not give anything for free. Maybe free banter and some life advice. Also the dress robes are to improve your charisma. As a great wizard, one should also be a great teacher. Otherwise, one's life will not be recorded in the annals of history. A great wizard should inspire students]

"You sure give life advice which I clearly do not need" I said angrily.

[I beg to differ.]

"Whatever, show me the status" I said as I went into the room in the inn.

[Status: Name - Leo AKA Quirinus Quirrell

Health - Average adult male (Healthy).

Magic core level - 2nd grade Lower(13%)

Strength - Average adult (Weak)

Agility - Average adult (even a kid is faster than you)

Endurance - Average adult (You get tired easily)

Will - High human (Only thing you have of value)

Items - Trunk, Custom wand, Useless wand, Charisma enhancing dress robes.]

I was dumbfounded as I read my status. "Did you really have to add your comments".

[Yes, I only spoke the truth.]

[New mission - Perform all known spells 1000 times. Reward - All practiced spells next level information.]

"Well, this is going to take time" I changed into comfortable robes and started practicing spells that could be done within the room. I need something to defend myself well.

I brought a small glass and used diffindo on it. It got cut into two parts. Then lets use Reparo to fix it. I kept on doing it over and over. It was fun seeing magic shaping to cut something and then repairing it. By dinner time I was done 500 times each of the two spells. And I was spent. Both mentally and physically. I called in the inn house elf for dinner.

Once done with dinner I slept after putting an alerting ward in the windows and the door. I didn't want to be kidnapped in the middle of the night. Then I slept, the most peaceful sleep in two days after hours of fleeing and using magic.

The next few weeks I spent in the inn, only getting food three times from the elf. The rest I spent practicing my spells and leveling them up to obtain information on how to improve them.

So far I have completed Diffindo, Reparo, Tarantallegra, Petrificus totalus, Rictusempra, Incarcerous, Mobilicorpus, Liberacorpus, Levicorpus, Duro (hardens object), Avis, Aparecium, Defodio (carves metal and stone), Descendo, Revelio, Protego, Obscuro, Impedimenta, Locomotor mortis(leglocker), Geminio, Aguamenti, Stupefy, Finite incantatem, Erecto (erects structures), Prior incantato, Homenum revelio, Incendio, Quietus, Lumos, Nox, Colloportus, Alohamora, Evanesco, Ferula (bandages cuts), Expecto patronum, Tergeo, Serpensortia, Episkey, Expelliramus, Mufflatio, Silencio, Pack (pack trunks), Reducio, Engorgio, Scourgify, Wingardium leviosa, Impervious (Protects from water and fire), Glisseo, Accio and apparation.

When I rested from all the effects of magic exhaustion I read the dark books stored in the inventory. Most of them were crazy. None of them could be practiced without alerting people around. So I just read them and practiced the wand movements. Fiendfyre, the three unforgivables, Sectumsempra, Protego Diabolica, Expulso, Confringo, and reducto. The previous Quirrell used some of them of which I had memories of.

Once these were completed 1000 times each, I got the information on how to advance these spells. It also helped me with magic control. The added benefit was my core advanced from 2nd-grade Lower(13%) to 2nd-grade Mid(1%).

It was exhausting, But now I cannot practice within the inn. All second-level spells will bring attention to me, which I don't want.

"Seems like I am off to Egypt"

"Pack" I said as the items laying around got packed within my trunk. Once it was shrunken and stored, I got dressed and headed out of the inn. Once I got to a remote area I took the portkey to Egypt and said "Egypt here I come". The feeling of squeezing enveloped me once more.

Egypt was hot. Very hot. Sand flying in the wind, lack of vegetation were what I expected. But I ended up near a river. Probably Nile. As I walked down the river, I met communities of magicals. They wore light-colored dresses with turbans. Egyptians used staves compared to wands.

"It seems I am dressed wrongly for the climate" I said and walked to the nearest clothing joint.

"What can I get you?" The owner was a witch in fashionable clothes, with a measuring tape hanging across her neck.

"Hello madam, I would like an entire wardrobe. I am planning to stay in Egypt for about 10 months" I replied.

"Well, let's get you measured" she started measuring, and once finished she said. "What charms would you like on them?"

"Please add cooling, cleansing, and anti-tear on all of them. I would like 3 sets of work clothes and 2 sets of casual wear and a set of pajamas" I replied.

She set up the clothes within a few minutes and I dressed up in one of the sets. It was much better to wear light clothes in Egypt. I headed over to an inn to book myself a room. Once that is done I went up to the owner of the inn to fish for information.

"Hello, sir. Could you direct me to the Gnomes of Egypt?" These gnomes unlike garden gnomes were sentient creatures. Like goblins, they have created their own banks spread across multiple countries with their head branch in Panama. I did not want to involve myself with goblins as they would inevitably give away my information if money is involved. On the other hand, gnome banks were not prevalent in Europe. My stay has to be anonymous for the year or else things will get dicey.

"You are from Europe?" the man asked.

"Yes, I am. I am travelling the world and hope to stay in Egypt for a while" I replied.

"Well, the gnome bank is straight down this road. You will see an earthy brown colored building of 3 stories high" he replied.

"Thank you good sir" I replied as I went down the path mentioned.

Finding the bank was easy. Talking to the gnomes not so much.

[Friendly life advice - gnomes are temperamental like goblins. Get straight to the point or they will look down on you.]

"Well, so far that is the best free advice you have given me system.

[I live to please]

"Oh please" I said as I went through the bank.
