"Albus, what are you looking at?" Manstein frowned in displeasure.

His arms were getting tired from holding it up, but Albus was too lazy to open his mouth and eat the meatball that Albus offered.

"It's raining now." Dumbledore's eyes seemed to glow.

"What do you mean?" Manstein, slightly puzzled. "You mean Basil Granger."

"The weather is not a problem for a skilled wizard."

"If I wanted, I could make Hogwarts sunny instantly."

"It's no big deal that he went out for a walk outside the castle."

"With his magic, the rain does not disturb him, and the mud does not soil his boots or trousers."

"What you should be concerned about is your other student, who killed an international student and took his place."

There's no such thing as a husband and wife holding a grudge overnight, let alone between Grindelwald and Dumbledore.

On the very night he moved into the Headmaster's Office, he told Dumbledore about his discovery.

"You're not planning to use him as a pawn again, are you?"

"Then you're going to be disappointed this time."

"Whether it's Basil Granger or Harry Potter after his transformation, who may or may not still be a wizard, they can easily see through 'Masashi Li Lin's' true identity."

Dumbledore shook his head. "Basil might. He's always unpredictable."

"But Harry will only think that this international student is very powerful."

"That's normal. International students come to this country for the Philosopher's Stone and they have a trump card."

"The Japanese wizards studied magic for an extra four years."

"Basil's existence must have given Harry a misconception that a junior wizard being this powerful is normal among geniuses."

"Moreover, in terms of his aura, this part of Tom is completely different from the original."

"I didn't even notice if you hadn't pointed it out."

"The predecessor of this Horcrux must have been very powerful. And it must have been made a long time ago."

"Alright, everything Tom is doing is under my observation."

Dumbledore stood up and pulled Manstein. "We should go and look at something more important."

The two took a step forward and disappeared into thin air.

In Dumbledore's view, Basil today is highly suspicious.

First of all, they got up so early and weren't even Hermione and the others in the lounge.

Secondly, going out on a rainy day.

In the database of Basil Granger that he created, Basil never went out during this weather.

If I don't have classes, I usually stay in the lounge or the library.

All the reasons mentioned above are just excuses.

Most importantly, he sensed an unfamiliar power in Basil.

That power surpassed the existing magical system, and was as unique as the one that appeared in Harry that day, as if it were appearing in this world for the first time.

In the Headmaster's Office.

Once again, a thick silver mist lingered.

The fog reflected the pattering rain and the dry earth in the center of the rain.

That's Forbidden Forest.

A treeless clearing connected to the mountains of Hogsmeade.

The three circular magic circles are arranged in a triangular pattern.

The blond boy sat cross-legged in the center of the triangle.

Hands clasped together.

"I knew it!" Dumbledore clenched his fist. "This brat was definitely not planning on doing anything good."

Manstein wanted to criticize Dumbledore, but his behavior was too outrageous, both as the headmaster and his brother-in-law.

But the three magic arrays caught his attention.

"This is... the three of them together form a six-pointed star."

"But why do we have to separate?"

"Those symbols look so much like katakana."

Then an amazing thing happened.

The three magic circles began to glow.

Then it overlaps towards the center, where Basil sits cross-legged.

Basil then began chanting a strange incantation, touching his index fingers and thumbs together with the remaining three fingers, "JA HA RA DO KU SHI DO, JA HA RA DO KU SHI DO!"

A divine light began to envelop the boy.

The hands, which had formed an unknown Hand Seal, remained raised high in their original position.

"Shine forth, you! Brave of Light!"

The tiny figure vanished, replaced by a gigantic Alchemy puppet.

Dumbledore.

He never imagined that he would witness such an astonishing scene so soon after extending the monitoring range of his Mist Condenser to the Forbidden Forest.

Did you see that?

Manstein nodded blankly. "I saw it all. I wrote it all down."

Basil's fun has begun.

For the next week, both of them focused all their energy on the magic circle and the incantation.

The only result was failure.

That's for sure.

Basil was able to control Magic Power.

It is because he has repeatedly modified his own body and also acquired the formless spiritual qualities of angels.

In fantasy terms, his body can passively, or even actively, adapt to the laws of another world.

Only through observation can one learn the Magic Power of another world.

Dumbledore and Manstein

Aside from rumors circulating in the castle that the two had gone on a date to the Forbidden Forest, nothing else was found.

This resulted in Basil waking up with a smile on his face that very night, which was early morning in the world of Brave of Light.

Amidst the vast Dadi and mountains composed of jagged rocks, Rabbit Ear Van speeds by.

The Dadi is writing a letter to its mother again.

"Mom, how are you? We have a new friend joining us."

His name is Gas.

"Although he is small in stature, he has amazing strength."

Gas sat cross-legged in front of the Light Energy Gem, repeatedly trying to pull the Light Energy Bow.

Although unlike strongmen who cannot pull it, they can barely deform the bowstring.

But it still couldn't pull the Light Energy Bow open.

Gori Gori is sleeping in the crucible room.

Mei was in charge of driving.

At that moment, she was looking at Basil in the passenger seat with a very strange expression.

"My child, although you are indeed very strong."

"But you shouldn't do that too frequently."

"I've been through this myself, old woman."

Contrary to Basil's expectations that they would no longer be able to play games together after club activities, this was not the case.

Mei logs off very quickly after each event ends.

It was as if they knew what was going to happen.

Her words now undoubtedly confirm this.

Moreover, she misread Basil's expression, thinking he was still savoring the moment.

Basil looked out the window and changed the subject, saying, "You've participated in three club activities now."

Didn't you try to redeem anything?

"180 Club Emblem can be exchanged for three epic cards."

"Weren't you very curious about the Time-Turner?"

"I remember it was a purple card (referring to an epic card)."

Mei scoffed. "I've done my research. Since the club was founded, each of you has redeemed a purple card more than once."

"But so far, no one has drawn the Time-Turner."

"The most common spells are the Summoning Charm and the Incendio."

"Secondly, there are Summoning Card."

"Even Madison, who was the luckiest, only managed to draw a rare Demiguise."

Basil was somewhat puzzled. "What about the other things? The Club Store has many products from other worlds."

"Although your world is in 2100, it is the most 'future' world."

"But in terms of people's livelihood, you don't even have smartphones."

"And the Potions of our world."

"Felix Felicis, a healing potion that brings better luck."

"A single dose of the Elixir of Life only costs 100 badges."

"Aren't you planning to be younger?"

"What did you say?!" Mei instantly floated up and released the steering wheel.

He leaned towards the car door and tightened his robe.

The Rabbit Ear Van went out of control and crashed into a giant cactus.

Mei paid no attention to the car accident, but looked at Basil: "I'm just an old woman from the Long-eared Tribe."

"You wizards have such extreme tastes."

Basil was speechless. "What do you mean we wizards have weird tastes?"

"Even if I really am, who else could it be?"

Mei is indeed the kind of beautiful old lady, but she is still an old lady.

He's not a pervert.

Mei, with an expression that suggested Basil had already admitted it, said, "I've read Harry Potter too."

"Dumbledore, the lewd old man who has an inextricable relationship with Harry Potter."

"Hagrid Old Man used swelling potion to pursue the Giant."

"And those humanoids in your world."

"How they were born is something I, an old woman, can't even imagine!"

Basil: "Which Harry Potter world are you watching?!"

"Harry Potter and the Perverted Old Deng?"

Mei said matter-of-factly, "That kid Madison, who knows Harry Potter best in the group."

"To help me quickly understand the world of the group members, they specially gave me a stack of family tree charts."

The Dadi burst open, shouting, "Stop arguing! There's been a car accident!"

——

Meanwhile, within the Evil Moving Empire...

Beneath the statue of the Dark Evil God, Aguraman is holding another meeting.

Ainuma was demanding an explanation, "You didn't even let us know!"

"Let Steel Fang Tiger and Brave of Light fight."

"What exactly are you planning, Xiamang!"

She felt a little scared.

It would be bad if Basil got a sore skin.

After all, it was the Nine Evil Moving Gods.

Xiamang's Evil Power is also not weak.

Xiamang said matter-of-factly, "I don't remember being scolded for this."

"It's precisely because of my outstanding attack."

"Only then did we discover a major flaw in the mechanical arms and legs that Dr. Babu installed on Steel Fang Tiger."

"Isn't that how it is?"

They directly omitted the fact that they knew Steel Fang Tiger had defects, yet they couldn't wait to start it.

However, Dr. Babu jumped in, saying, "That was just an experiment."

Xiamang frowned. "Dr. Babu, I hope you can proceed with the modification of Steel Fang Tiger as soon as possible."

"Besides the defect you mentioned, the lack of reinforcement at the back."

"The Evil Power cannot be fully exerted yet."

"This is a serious problem."

Dr. Babu was furious. "I understand."

Turning his head, he muttered, "What the hell do you know!"

Only the developer knew that this was a problem.

It was because the back was not reinforced that the body was unable to fully exert the Evil Power.

Moreover, they only state the requirements without considering the difficulty of development.

If he weren't outmatched, he would have loved to pick up a machine gun and shoot Xiamang's deadpan face a few times.

Nab, who hadn't said a word since the meeting started, couldn't hold back any longer. He stepped past Ainuma and almost rushed in front of Xiamang, shouting, "Don't change the subject, Xiamang!"

"Are you planning to eat all by yourself?"

Having a boyfriend Ainuma avoided the topic, adding, "I also think your motives are the same."

"Back then, His Highness the Evil Moving Demon God entrusted the task to the three of us."

How dare you—

Xiamang kept her eyes closed the whole time, only opening them slightly when she spoke, and said sarcastically, "Ainuma, if you get too angry, you'll get more wrinkles around your eyes."

"Then you'll have to wear even heavier makeup again, won't you?"

"What did you say?" Ainuma clenched her fists. How dare you comment on what kind of person I am? Only Basil would!

Aguraman, who's been floating on the lava forever, good heavens, with that mouth of Xiamang's, he'll probably be single forever.

He was eager to continue fanning the flames and watch the Evil Moving Tribe make a scene.

But considering that Ainuma was the wife of his future benefactor, he still coughed.

"Shut up, all of you!"

"Now is not the time to argue over such a trivial matter."

"At this point, there is only one King of Light Energy awakening in this location."

"Our current task is to take it down."

"We absolutely cannot let the remaining two wake up too!"

"Yes!" The three men said helplessly, one hand on their chests.

After the three of them left, Aguraman the fly rubbed his hands together, saying, "It'll be soon, it'll be soon."

"My grandson, Rabbi!"

On their way back to their respective rooms.

Xiamang stopped and began to reminisce.

Thinking of that fleeting, magnificent Light Power.

His face darkened.

The Brave of Light made me look so bad.

Just you wait!

I must verify your identity myself! You think you're so special!

The solar energy team is here.

The Dadi lies on the skateboard, repairing the car under the vehicle.

"Hurry up!" Gori Gori urged.

It's been so long that she forgot to add the curry.

"This is really annoying," Dadi, holding a wrench and examining the vehicle closely. "How could this car be in such a dilapidated state?"

"It's already a miracle that we were able to drive this far."

No sooner had he finished speaking than gasoline splattered all over his face.

"What a piece of junk! It's leaking oil everywhere!"

Basil nudged Mei's hat. "Are you sure you don't need me to do anything?"

"A Reparo state."

"How about we just have Bellatrix and the others buy one for us?"

Mei shook her head and said softly, "This is also a way to train Light Power."

"Alright, I should go and Gas some pointers now."

"If only the Dadi were as serious as him."

After she finished speaking, she floated to the side of Gas, who was still trying to draw his bow.

"Light Energy Bow cannot be pulled by force alone."

"Hmm?" Gas looked at the bow in confusion.

He was about to ask something.

The Dadi seemed to cheer, drawing his attention.

Dadi's body detached from the skateboard, and he took out a part about the thickness of a finger. "The Spark of the main engine is broken."

"Of course it won't be able to move."

Mei and Gas came over when they heard the noise.

She glanced at Basil and said, "This thing called Spark or something, how can we fix it?"

Dadi said matter-of-factly, "Grandma, don't you know magic? Just use magic."

Mei pretended to be confused and waved her hand, "No, no, I'm not good at things like turtles (KAME is a homonym for mechanical MEKA)."

The Dadi then looked at Basil, "Brother Li, what about you?"

Basil also looked confused, saying, "Mechanics are my weakness."

Gas said earnestly, "Yes, it's mechanical. Grandma, you've got it wrong."

Dadi said helplessly, "There's nothing I can do but buy a new Spark."

Clucking ...

She stretched out her index finger and twirled it, "Halilukukupa Ya Ya!"

A flash of light, and the Spark in Dadi's hand turned into a carrot.
