Harry Potter: Bloodraven

A teenage boy finds himself transmigrated into an alternate version of his favorite fictional universe, equipped with a standard system designed to make his adventure more convenient. ———— In this fanfiction, the wizarding world is more advanced and more aware of Muggle technology. The one place still lagging behind? Britain, where noble wizards cling to outdated traditions. This is an alternate-universe take on Harry Potter, blending in characters, themes, and ideas from various other universes—movies, TV shows, and books alike. The story will begin by focusing on Harry’s time at Hogwarts, with other universes making brief appearances through short chapters or mentions. They won’t take center stage until after the Hogwarts years are complete. The pace will be slow at the beginning, as I need to introduce new concepts, world-building, and character development to shape the MC the way I want him before the plot truly kicks off. ———— The System: First of all, it doesn’t control the MC’s life. It’s not sentient, it doesn’t make decisions, and it certainly doesn’t control the MC. In fact, the MC could ignore it entirely, and nothing would happen. At first glance, the system might seem a bit overpowered. But give it around 30 chapters, and you’ll start to see the balance. The system is just there to help the MC now and then, offering a shortcut when it's convenient. It won’t make him invincible overnight. ———— Pairing: I’m still undecided. Harem? Single love interest? To be honest, I’m open to either and will let the readers decide. The release schedule is set for every Monday, Wednesday, Friday, and Saturday, with one chapter per release, but may increase depending on the support this fanfic receives. ———— I am incorporating some ideas and drawing inspiration from the first two or three chapters of the novel 霍格沃茨的路人教授 by Chinese author 江年. If the original author feels offended, I will promptly modify or remove the related content. I will give credit to the authors whenever their ideas appear. ———— I have a family with two kids—a daughter and a son. I work full-time and dedicate my free time to writing, usually after spending time with my family. This gives me about two or three hours to focus on writing, and I absolutely love it. I’ll do my best to stay consistent. ———— If this sounds like your kind of story, I’d love for you to give it a try! Your feedback would mean a lot, but please wait until you’ve read at least 15 chapters before sharing your thoughts. There’s a lot to explore, from world-building and lore to fresh concepts, so it would be super helpful if you could hold off on early reviews. And if this isn’t your taste, no problem! There are plenty of other stories in this genre for you to explore. Harry Potter and all other fictional elements in this fanfiction belong to their respective authors, including J.K. Rowling and others. I don’t own any of it. If you enjoy these stories, I encourage you to support and respect the official content above all else. It’s important to honor the original creators! ———— If you wish to support me, please head to Patreon, where you can subscribe to chapters before they're published here.

The Outset (VII)

Maverick's focus than shifted to what he had planned as his main task for today. There, on the virtual screen, he can see the number 41, indicating is Magical Energy. However, this "41" unit did not come about from him adding points using the system.

During the past six months he has done a number of experiments with magic, and the Magical Energy index could be said to be the highlight of all of it.

He had first assumed that his super power, or Magic, could only be manipulated using the system. He had accepted the fact that he was, what you would call a systematic Wizard. That was until oneday, after pushing his levitating skill to the limit, he found that his Magical Energy had increased by one unit.

Thus, he repeated the same settings the following day as well, holding the bed levitated using the spell for as long as he could, and sure enough, he found that this kind of exercise could indeed increase his Magical Energy.

Then, he tested the limits by repeating the same scenario multiple times a day to see if it would work, but the result showed otherwise.

He dedicated a week only for this experiment,—without studying spells or reading things related to the magical world,—and what he found out was that his Magical Energy did go up.

But it was very inconsistent. Sometimes, after the exercise, it would increase by one point, and sometimes there was no change at all.

So he concluded that he could, infact, increase his Magical Energy by what he call, "Magical Workout", and not just from the system points.

But the "Magical Workout" was too time consuming for him at the moment as it takes several cycles of using levitation charm, holding and resting and holding and resting, for him to get one unit increase. Usually it takes an hour, sometimes more, so he stopped doing the exercise regularly. Because for him, these three years were crucial, and he wanted to amass as much knowledge as possible.

So increase from 20 to 41 units was him occasionally doing the Magical Workout exercise during the past six months.

Moreover, he further affirmed his previous conclusion,—back when his Magical Energy was pushed from 11 units to 20 units using system points,—that his overall physical fitness would also increase with his Magical Energy.

And it wasn't only his physical strength, but endurance and even his nerve reaction ability also saw an increase. These were all tested by experimenting with himself during the past six months using various magical and scientific ways.

This, however,does not mean that he had became some kind of super soldier. It was only a small increase, like him being able to effortlessly lift 60 kilograms while before it was 50 kilograms.

Now, his main objective for today was simply to give him a boost in Magical Energy, and to see whether the remaining 180 units of Magical Energy could make him cross to the next rank.

The system has not showed any helpful pop-ups regarding this, as he had tried interacting with it using multiple ways.

But he thinks that the system would eventually display the corresponding Magical Energy units for each rank because previously,—when his spell's proficiency level got increased, or when it displayed the Extraordinary Characteristic of his wand,—when something happened for the first time, the system showed additional information.

Looking at the virtual screen, Maverick focused on the Magical Energy and the + sign next to it. Taking a deep breath, he slowly, about once every five seconds, clicked the sign.

The feeling of euforia filled his muscles and bones for a good five minutes as each time his Magical Energy was systematically increased. That long forgotten feeling of fullness and satisfaction enveloped him, until the system displayed a long message pop-up, after he clicked to raise the Magical Energy value from 99 to 100.

...

Maverick went through the notification very carefully. Unlike before, this time he even made notes as it was quite long, and very useful information.

According to the system, his breakthrough to Magus should not cause any disturbances, however, just to be on the safe side, he dicided to postpone it for midnight.

He once again reviewed the information and remembered some key points he had read the past few months.

Students who freshly graduate from wizarding schools are usually still at the Magic Apprentice level. Only when they grow a bit older do most of them cross their rank.

There would always be geniuses and these are the Witches and Wizards who make their breakthrough to a Magus during their teens.

Moreover, the breakthrough, or crossing to the next rank, it self seemed to be a very complicated process it self.

According to the Advanced Magical Theory book Maverick had read, a Wizard or Witch would need what one would call an epiphany before they can even attempt the process.

This epiphany was not described in any book, only vague information was provided, like the idea of harmony between one's magic, body, and mind. It was knowledge Maverick couldn't fully grasp, or rather, he never truly understood what they meant.

Like wise, crossing the rank to a Great Magus also seem to involve the same "epiphany", and some more complicated steps. Maverick did not bother to understand more as he belives that he could get some better, more credible books later when he gets acces to a better wizarding library.

The books that he had bought were all very common and general knowledge, just enough for him to understand his way around this new world that he is now apart of.

And fortunately for him, the entire process of crossing the rank seemed to be just clicking a virtual button.

Well, he would find out at midnight.

Time passed slowly and soon it came to midnight. During these few hours he refrained from doing any exercise or practice spell casting. He had rested his mind and body and got ready for the big event tonight.

Looking at the virtual screen infront of him, his mind focused on the Energy Level valued 99 and the accumulated points of 119.

For every 200 power stones, I’ll release a bonus chapter!
