Chapter 3 Gold Finger Arrives Apothecary talent

Braun, who was lying in his bed after his father left, let out a low groan.

Then he slowly opened his eyes and looked at the gorgeous decorations and soft pillows around him.

He couldn't help but mutter: "Did I cross over to the Harry Potter world?"

His name was Chris Addams, an orphan without a father and no mother, in his twenties, contracted leukemia because he had been a painter for a long time and died.

The last memory in his mind is that of Harry Potter lying on a hospital bed with a book stained with blood.

"Ah..."

Chris only felt a sharp pain in his mind, and he went through the whole process of becoming a baby from birth to a child at the age of nine.

"So I really am in the world of Harry Potter?

And I'm the sole heir to a pure-blood family?

That's great! "

He was happy with the fact that he had crossed over into his favourite novel.

Magic, how fascinating.

Not to mention that there is still the possibility of eternal life in this world.

It couldn't be more perfect.

As for the original soul of the boy, he didn't worry, although he had no clue on what happened or how he ended up in this body.

But he knew that the soul of this original body had also traveled to another world.

So I don't have to worry about him anymore.

["Ding! The system has arrived! "]

["The wizard simulator is activated!!"]

"Wizard simulator?"

"Shouldn't you give me an Over Powered system to punch Voldemort, kick Dumbledore?"

Braun was complaining about this when he suddenly noticed that the text in front of him changed.

[Wizard simulator is on]

[Currently, you can choose talents: 

 1. Parseltongue,

 2. Apprentice Prophet,

 3. Apothecary,

 4. Squib,

 5. Half-Blood ]

[Please choose up to three of the above talents to simulate the wizard]

"I obviously have no idea on what my golden finger does, how do i choose without understanding fully on what the simulator is and what benefits I can derive from it?"

Braun looked at the simulator in front of him and continued to complain about this.

But he also knew that choosing the options could not be delayed.

The so-called pairing a chicken with a chicken and a dog with a dog, since this is his own Gold Finger, he has no choice trying to change it or wishing for something that he doesn't have.

"Let's honestly choose from the provided talents for the simulation."

For this type of game, he jogs his memory for a while and gathers hints on how to play. When he was working in his previous life, he also fantasized about being able to have such a system to change his life against the sky.

So he is not completely clueless on what to do and how to proceed.

Choose talent...

Looking at the ten talents in front of him, Braun was a little hesitant.

After all, these talents are not very good, except for [Parseltongue] and [Apprentice Prophet], all red talents are clearly better than blue and white ones.

However, after hesitating, Braun made his choice.

[Parseltongue (red): Rumored to be a magical power inherited from Slytherin, a symbol of nobility in pureblood. The power contained in the bloodline allows you to communicate with snake creatures. At the same time, you can command snakes to make them obey your commands. ]

[Apprentice Prophet(Red): As a wizard with a talent for prophecy, you can easily see the trajectory of the future through the crystal ball, but the results of the prophecy are usually annoying. ]

[Apothecary (blue): As a Muggle doctor-turned-wizard, you have a strong interest in potions. This allows you to learn Potions more quickly. ]

The system provided a short info that Talents come in different colors.

There are five levels in total.

White < blue < red < purple < gold.

Braun's luck can only be said to be good or bad, and he has two red talents.

[Selection completed]

[Simulation start——]

[Zero years old: You were born a boy. Your mother died in childbirth. ]

[One year old: You grew up living in the countryside. Your father accidentally fell off a cliff because while collecting medicinal herbs. ]

[...]

[At the age of six: You started learning to make herbs with your grandfather to help heal the sick in the village. ]

[Seven years old: Your grandfather died, and a mysterious group of people came to the village. You listen to the village chief explaining that they are nobles, and those chosen by them can become knights and live a good life. ]

[Eight years old: The village chief told you that these mysterious people who have lived for a year are going to start choosing the candidates from the children in the village to take away for knight training.

Everyone is happy at the opportunity and participate in the selections, but very few actually succeeded in the assessments.

Luckily, you were chosen. ]

[Ten years old: After a year of sailing, you find that these people are not nobles but wizards, but you still choose to join them when you are young]

[...]

[Twenty years old: Your talent for being able to predict is recognized and valued by the academy's mentor, and you become his disciple.]

[Twenty-one years old: Because your talent is beyond ordinary people, you incur the jealousy of your senior brother. You were caught in a trap and were cursed by your senior brother and you died. ]

[At the end of this simulation, you can keep a talent forever and Solidify into the real world. ]

[Simulator cooling, simulation time: twenty-one years. Cooldown: twenty-one days. ]

Braun watched this f**king life for a long time without words.

I can only say one sentence as if with emotion:

" F*ck!"

This life is too miserable! Just be born in a medieval Western fantasy setting.

But what the hell is the setting of losing his mother at birth, losing his father at the age of one, and losing his grandfather at the age of seven?

He finally survived until he was twenty years old, was valued by a mentor, and he was killed by his senior brother before he enjoyed a few years of happiness.

And this Gold Finger will have to take nearly a month to use.

This is still only a simulation of twenty-one years, so what if you live hundreds of years old, wouldn't you have to cool down for a year or two?

"But fortunately, my family background is not bad, and I can live well even without this Gold Finger. Besides, All I can do now is to choose a talent to solidify "

His heart pounded a little when I thought of this.

Parseltongue and prophet are all very powerful strengths in this magical world!

However, you still have to think carefully about what you choose.

"What does solidification of a talent mean? Does it mean that I can't change it after I choose? "

[No, solidifying talent refers to choosing a talent to enhance the host's talent in the real world.

Between the end of the simulation and the start of the next simulation, the host can enjoy the boosted talent. ]

[Solidifying a talent does not mean that the talent is completely fixed.

The host can choose to replace any talent with a new talent after the next simulation.

Talent disappears after replacement, but experience from when talent is possessed is retained. ]
