Ariana Awakens

However, for Harry now, this cola with lemon slices was just a casual beverage to accompany his meal; he didn't even bother to tell whether it was Pepsi or cola.

Thin-skinned pastries the size of Galleons filled with piping hot, sweet meat juices; pork cubes with marbled cross-sections; meatballs that crunch when you chew them; a soup that looks like clear water but is full of savory flavor; duck meat sliced like flowers; and a sweet and sour sauce to accompany it.

These are Harry's main targets.

For this reason, he even neglected his new friends.

During dessert, he finally struck up a conversation with 'Draco' while enjoying green ice cream with a tea flavor.

"Will knights, who focus on self-improvement, and students from the other three houses, who focus on Sub-dimension- planes, Nuclear Reactor, and mecha, attend classes together? Just like in the old Hogwarts, when upperclassmen didn't attend classes together according to their houses."

(Ron, who was engrossed in the dazzling array of food, snapped out of his reverie when Harry struck up a conversation with 'Draco'.)

(Ginny couldn't help but glare at Ron; it was hard for her to believe that Ron wasn't like Dumbledore.)

Draco shook his head and then nodded. "Each major actually includes a lot of content when broken down in detail."

"The materials science major for the Armor Profession will also be involved, as will the Nuclear Reactor major and the Sub-dimension Knight Major Profession studies ancient alchemy, Potions will also be involved to some extent. If the Force application technology involves Transfiguration, such as Eternity Transfiguration, it will also need to be understood."

"The Nuclear Reactor specialty is the most complex. As long as it can be improved, those eccentrics in Ravenclaw Nuclear Reactor use any means and technology. Sometimes it wouldn't be surprising to find a Force master in Ravenclaw."

"After all, it is well known that the Nuclear Reactor itself can be improved by learning more Force application techniques, which is the magic of the old era. If it weren't for the fact that there are many Force application techniques that overlap and it is easy to do useless work, and that advanced application techniques depend on one's temperament and not everyone can learn them, the Nuclear Reactor major might not have become independent at all."

(Hermione's eyes lit up. "In that case, spell cards would be a shortcut.")

(Spell cards with overlapping properties cannot coexist; the stronger one will override the weaker one, or the creation will fail, which means a lot of unnecessary effort is saved.)

("It's a pity we don't have Nuclear Reactor." Hermione said listlessly, her hand forming a blue lightsaber.)

(She also condensed what 'Krum' taught her, now known as the Heart of White Magic, which is similar to a low-end version of Nuclear Reactor.)

(However, this is far from the Force Furnace; she still remembers the power of Harry's Lumos.)

(And she can only shape light into swords, so their power is limited.)

(With a light wave of his right hand, the blue sword danced in a beautiful fan shape, the long table silently shattered, and a magical fluctuation flashed from his left elbow resting on the table, and the long table Heal Like New.)

("That's far too weak," Hermione sighed.)

(The students at the Gryffindor table:)

"The cyclical science of Sub-dimension is different; it focuses on how to make Sub-dimension self-sustaining, and other disciplines rarely touch upon it. What Hufflepuff like most is raising all sorts of Magical Creature in their Sub-dimension, saying that this can enhance the self-regulating ability of the ecosystem."

"The Force Mechanics of the Knight Major are completely opposite; all professions cannot do without it."

"It's just that students from other majors don't need to go that deep; they can achieve some complex Force application techniques in other ways."

Draco finished speaking in one breath, his pale face turning red. "Ah~ I'm sorry, you should already know all this, I just... This is the personality that comes with my inherited name. He seems to really like to talk, but he's always held it in for the sake of Malfoy's demeanor, which has resulted in a very strong urge to confide."

"It's nothing," Harry chuckled.

First of all, this is exactly the kind of content he needs.

What's more, it reminded him of 'Draco,' who also chattered incessantly.

He initially thought it was because the two worlds were different and the genders were different, but he later discovered that Draco Malfoy was actually a chatterbox.

Thinking of this, Harry's eyes gradually filled with warmth.

Draco unconsciously shifted his position, moving a little further away from Harry.

(Ginny's eyes sharpened.)

(Ron didn't realize that he had unconsciously frowned.)

Draco suddenly remembered a rumor that the Potter family was homosexual: James Potter and Sirius, Harry Potter and Ron Weasley, and even his grandparents Albus Sirius Potter and Scorpius Malfoy were just openly gay.

Draco's movements startled Harry awake.

'What's wrong with me? I've only been away from Draco and the others for less than three days, how come?'

'If only the Dream Walking Technique could be used in this world, it's a pity I didn't get the original version.'

'That way I can also learn how to be a fairy and thank Professor Riddle.'

'Going to another world when her mother was still a child, preventing her from becoming childhood friends with that annoying Snape, and letting her be with her father sooner... well, never mind. Snape wasn't all that bad.'

These thoughts flashed through Harry's mind, but he quickly returned to reality.

He understood perfectly well why Draco was panicking.

But he asked innocently, "Draco, what's wrong?"

'I'm afraid you'll betray my chastity!' Draco wanted to say.

But saying it that way is the opposite.

So he chuckled dryly and said, "I've been sitting for a while, and my skin is getting a little numb."

The opening banquets at other schools were equally wonderful, with equally abundant food on the tables.

In the Star Era, the barriers between national cultures have long been broken down.

People tend to prioritize deliciousness when eating, rather than caring about the country the food comes from or the cultural significance of the culture.

But Beauxbatons is undoubtedly an exception.

Nick Flume left his mark here over 600 years ago, which is well reflected in the food, with some ancient French dishes still dominating the table.

Phoebe undoubtedly found the food very palatable.

But as a food vlogger, she is undoubtedly unqualified.

Therefore, apart from viewers who stayed on screen because of her looks, only a small number of viewers who were more fond of French cuisine stayed.

However, Phoebe herself didn't care about these things.

She didn't even notice the historical figures she knew so well who were in the Great Hall.

She can be said to still be living in the game "Knight Glory".

It was through it that she realized that she was now powerful not only in her physical body, but also in her magic and even her soul.

As a fairy and wizard, her consciousness, or heart, has been elevated to a non-human level.

Despite the fact that the opponent's light armor was superior, equipped with a spatial teleportation device, and that the photon spirit gun on his right arm could convert magic into a retractable spearhead that could extend 100 meters in an instant.

Her Storm-type light armor was unremarkable, but under her control, she could always react faster and unleash greater power with less magic.

Then they easily achieved a ten-game winning streak.

They received a new part as a gift—a transmission pulley, a device that can distribute the force received equally throughout the entire machine. If the rider's skills are superb, it can even be transformed into forward thrust.

But this is just something to ignore.

She is a college student.

Once the Cosmic Selection Competition begins, all of humanity's most advanced materials, parts, and designs will be available to her for assembly.

This game was created by a private company.

Most importantly, her discovery.

That thing that resided in her consciousness, that had always existed in her brain, was something that could truly be called magic.

All the magic we knew before was just a byproduct of it.

True magic cannot be consumed; it seems to be Eternity.

'Is this the essence of magic, the source of the immortality of fairies and elves?'

Without using any magic, she simply moved her mind, and the cake on the plate flew automatically into her plate.

(Viewers couldn't tell the difference just by looking at the screen.)

(Basil's eyes lit up. "Not bad.")

(But it's only good; the fairies in the game are the embodiment of the essence of magic, an immortal creation.)

(The answer was already laid out before them.)

(They already have an easier time realizing this than other wizards.)

(If the difficulty for other wizards to do this is equivalent to a mortal trying to lift himself up by his own hair, then for them it is merely equivalent to casting Killing Curse without a wand.)

(If it were a genius like Dumbledore, Grindelwald, or Voldemort, they probably would have discovered it in the first world.)

(No, that's not right either. The power of the Magic Immortal Artifact is too strong, and it originates from within itself. It's closer to the self than magic power. No, it's directly the power of the self itself.)

(Voldemort and Grindelwald might have been misled by it, or perhaps they were so captivated by the wonders of the elves that they overlooked its immortal essence.)

(Just like Lily Evans, who clearly has the same talent, but because she is the spirit of Magic Immortal Artifact, she focuses more on exploring the power of the Mind Stone, and ignores the source of immortal power that is eternal because of the Mind Stone.)

The other three Champion were unaware of the progress Phoebe had made.

The timing of recognizing the source of one's own power can make a world of difference, even by a second.

This means that she will master and integrate all the magical abilities that Basil, the elf, bestowed upon her in the name of Balala.

The Ultimate Liberation to the Magic Immortal Artifact will also be completed at the same time.

Most importantly, the spirit will no longer need protection and will awaken prematurely.

An extra helper, used on the light armor, is a synergy where one plus one equals more than two.

"Phoebe, Phoebe." Ariana's voice rang in Phoebe's ears.

("Ariana!" the Dumbledore brothers called out simultaneously.)

(Although both of them knew that Ariana was safe and sound, they had been worried about her ever since.)

(Upon hearing their sister's voice, both of them smiled.)

The same goes for Phoebe: "You're awake! Because..."

"As soon as I came into this world, I felt that there was another world, a beautiful dream, calling me from the shadows. If it weren't for the Magic Immortal Artifact, I probably would have disappeared long ago," Ariana said. "Don't be afraid when I tell you this, it's just like how I felt in the afterlife."

("Silly sister," Dumbledore, though he hadn't seen Ariana's face, he could already picture her wide-eyed, feigning nervousness, "Phoebe has long since explored the afterlife thoroughly; she's read books and searched for related information.")

"Although I don't remember, I still subconsciously know that it was a wonderful place. I seem to have seen my parents and many other people there, and they were all very happy."

(Many viewers felt relieved, as they had worried that the afterlife in the two worlds would be different.)

"Rainbow Phenomenon," Phoebe said. "It seems that the underworld of this world has indeed become terrifyingly powerful. Even with Magic Immortal Artifact as a body, the artifact spirit can only maintain its existence by sleeping."

"However, it's also possible that because our contract disappeared, only the Magic Immortal Artifact remained."

"What is Rainbow Phenomenon?" Ariana asked curiously.

Phoebe explained, "This world."

"That's wonderful." After hearing Phoebe's introduction to this world, Ariana's voice visibly brightened. "Death is not the end, but a reunion. Do Mom and Dad have a new baby?"

"Has Albus in this world reconciled with Gellert?"

("She called me Gellert." Grindelwald was already in tears.)

(He always viewed Dumbledore siblings as a burden and ignored them.)

(This was also the trigger for his argument with Albus.)

(But according to Ariana, he was neither a blond jerk nor a jerk, but Gellert.)

(For the first time, he realized another reason for his imprisonment after the defeat—atonement.)

(For that innocent and pure girl who died at the hands of none of the three of them, for whom no one knows.)

("Reconcile?" Dumbledore looked up at the sky, trying hard not to let tears fall from his eyes.)

(Aberforth scoffed and muttered, "Blonde bastard.")

"This is wonderful," Phoebe said, "But we're in the final trial now."

"If you want to be resurrected, you'd better work hard!"

"How are you feeling now? Can you leave my body? I'll try to take you into the Virtual Universe later."

(Aberforth nodded in satisfaction. "This girl is nice; she's so gentle with Ariana.")

"Alright," Ariana said. "For some unknown reason, our connection has strengthened. In the first two mission worlds, you could be at Hogwarts while I was in Paris, France."

"But in this world, I can probably only be a hundred feet away from you."

"But this is already pretty good. Back in the Rune Card World, you were on the Seventh Floor corridor, and I had a hard time even getting to the Headmaster's Office."

"I wonder when the opening banquet will end. I want to get back to the dorm soon. I really want to see the Virtual Universe and play the games in it."

"Do you think I can experience the feeling of eating in a food-themed game?"

"I haven't eaten in ages—apple pie, fried chicken legs, smoked sausage, cake, pies, ice cream."

(Dumbledore and his brother were heartbroken and prayed together that the banquet would end soon and that Ariana would really be able to enter the Virtual Universe.)
