Ron the Chosen One
"Time's up," Ron sighed.
He had only been back in his original world for an hour when his allotted time for the day was used up.
They only had time for a brief moment of tenderness with Lavender.
Who knew that the world he was identified as was the Novel World, not the world of a movie.
("You can easily exchange it for permanent residency," Neville said, having already spent 1,000 points to obtain residency in the movie world. "For people like us who accidentally switch to the main world, it's very cheap; only 1,000 points.")
(Points come from check-ins, live streams, and donations.)
(As Harry Potter's Champion, it wouldn't be hard to earn those Dotty by just mentioning him briefly during a live stream.)
(Not to mention Ron, who has millions of followers, he didn't quite understand.)
(Ginny: "Neville, didn't you realize my brother was trying to gain sympathy? Otherwise, why would he be doing a live stream saying that? In just a few minutes, he probably earned at least 1000 points.")
"Slander, all slander," Ron said, his voice warm. "You're my sister."
"I only stream to maintain my identity as a streamer. High-quality content creators can be chosen by the Behind-the-Scenes God to travel to other worlds."
(Harry: "Ginny, Ron isn't like that. He's just stingy with his points on things he doesn't think are necessary.")
("As a streamer with millions of followers, you have the privilege of one hour of free time travel every day. You don't need to spend points to purchase it.")
"You understand me so well." Ron wished Harry could be in front of him and give him a hug.
At this point, he even had the urge to spend points to buy permanent access.
But poverty made him hesitate.
Yes, poverty.
Even if he's a million-follower streamer who consistently checks in on his live streams every day and receives substantial donations, he's still poor.
Because of the prices of goods in the newly emerged online mall.
Aside from the fact that time travel is very cheap.
The prices of other goods have increased ten thousand times compared to the time of the Triwizard Tournament.
Of course, it's also possible that the points and gems have different values.
In summary, even if he wanted to buy the cheapest item in the Champion's Shop, [Curse Mastery - 5 Gems], it would still cost 50,000 Credit Points.
With only 502,421 Credit Points, which translates to 50.2421 gems, he must be frugal.
Thinking of this, he began to sigh again.
(Most viewers thought Ron was incredibly ungrateful.)
(Because of the knowledge of the Magic Immortal World brought back by Harry and other Champion, the lifespan of wizards is destined to be Eternity.)
(And even if you only sign in daily for 1-100 Credit Points, and even if you're unlucky and only get one credit a day, you still won't be streaming.)
(With an infinite amount of time to accumulate, even the most expensive [Dream Walking Technique], costing 2 million gems and allowing true freedom of movement in the infinite universe, can eventually be obtained.)
"Ron." A voice that had echoed in Ron's dreams a thousand times over rang in his ears once more.
He looked up abruptly, "Harry?"
He was initially surprised, but then complained, "You've already used up your free time, haven't you? It costs 100 Credit Points per hour, and you don't have many Credit Points."
(Ginny crawls in the shadows, her lips pouting so much they could hang Troll on them, getting all the credit but not even showing it!)
Harry hugged Ron tightly. "I almost thought I'd only ever see you through live streams for the rest of my life."
"You forgot, this live streaming platform was ultimately created because of my wish."
"I have automatic sign-in privileges, ranging from 100 to 1000."
"Ten hours of free time are available each day."
Upon hearing this, Ron's brows finally relaxed.
For Harry's sake, his brain worked at high speed. "By the way, Harry, your Dream Walking Technique can be activated. I mean, you are now considered to have appeared in another universe and have traces of yourself here."
"That's what I wanted to say." Harry's voice rose even higher. "Perhaps it's because this world is so similar to ours, unlike the magical world or the Starry World, I can detect traces of this world."
"In fact, I arrived here using the [Dream Walking Technique]."
Ron asked in disbelief, "You 'The Burrow in this world? That's impossible. Even when I went back and was with Lavender just now, I watched your live stream. You appeared in Hogsmeade, just like everyone else."
"I followed Dumbledore's instructions and never went out."
Harry redeemed the limited edition of the three versions of [Dream Walking Technique], the one with a medium price.
Although one can physically descend into this world, one must still abide by the constraints of the cheaper version of the otherworldly traces.
That is, it cannot appear in a place where it has not been before.
"Because of you." Harry looked intently at Ron. "You are my trace in this world."
(Ginny's mind went blank. Even though she had been through a lot and her threshold for understanding was already high, such ambiguous words were still beyond her tolerance.)
"The bond between you and me transcends the boundaries of the world."
"Harry!" Ron's eyes reddened slightly.
(Basil couldn't help but complain, "What the hell, transcending the boundaries of the world? It's because this world also has Dream Sea. The Dream Sea is ultimately the gathering of the subconscious of all life.")
He wanted to say something more, but suddenly a sound rang in his ears, somewhat like turning the pages of a book.
The live stream in his mind appeared automatically in front of him without him needing to project it.
"An official email?" Harry was shocked. "Did we do something that can't be broadcast and get a warning from the platform? We're just friends!"
(Ginny sneered; she was starting to doubt it.)
"It's gold, with no red exclamation mark, so it shouldn't be related to any violation," Ron said, opening the email.
[Dear User No. 100234]
[Because of your consistent live streaming and continuous creation of high-quality content, you have been selected by the platform as a new world traveler.]
As a traveler, you will receive a travel fund of 500 gems to prepare for the new world you are about to arrive in.
The time-travel journey will begin in three days.
[Yes or no]
"A time traveler?" He stared at the letter in disbelief. "Not Harry, it's me?"
"Yes, yes, yes!"
"There must be a mistake," Ginny rubbed her eyes hard. "Who in their right mind would choose Ron as the time traveler?"
("Shouldn't it be Harry? The number one among the Champion.")
("Or else we'll need other Champion.")
(Most viewers thought so too.)
(Basil:.)
(In fact, there was a reason he chose Ron.)
(Because Ron is simple-minded, aligned with the right side, and weak.)
(This kind of probing stone is suitable; it won't reveal too much information about him.)
(Finding a kind person to act as a 'spokesperson' can, to some extent, demonstrate the stance of the person behind the scenes.)
(And Harry, he's too strong.)
(It wasn't just him; all the other Champion were the same.)
(Just like now.)
In the Headmaster's Office, Grindelwald looked displeased. "That Harry Potter has shown up again?"
Harry, as Cosmic Knight, was too powerful; his presence in this world was very noticeable to powerful wizards.
Grindelwald was about to be intimate with Dumbledore when Harry's presence was like the rising sun. Even though Harry was thousands of miles away in Devon, he and Dumbledore could clearly sense it.
Dumbledore's eyes glowed white; his consciousness was connected to the World Tree, allowing him to clearly see everything happening there without being detected.
This was a back door that Basil opened for his brother-in-law.
This gives him the power to monitor and control visitors from other worlds.
This is where it comes in handy now.
"There is news," Dumbledore silence, "That the gates to a new world have opened."
Why did you put your clothes back on just for this?
Grindelwald was speechless, his mind clouded by lust. "Isn't this something we already knew? After the countdown on their live streaming platform ends, they'll launch a shop with a new world travel option, and they'll choose an outstanding content creator as the traveler."
"The chosen one is Ron, Ron Weasley," Dumbledore emphasized.
Grindelwald looked as if he'd been choked. "That Ron Weasley?"
Are you kidding me?
He had also seen the movie.
Dumbledore shook his head, he was also very shocked, but then he began to feel relieved, "Perhaps, the new world needs just such a clumsy but kind person."
"Perhaps in that world, the shining points of humanity are more important than strength."
"Then why not you?" Grindelwald asked, referring to Dumbledore in the movie world.
"Because of my age? My thoughts are too hard to read?" Dumbledore shrugged. "Gellert, you should know that you are questioning the decision of a higher being who is far stronger and wiser than us. His vision must be far more far and clearer than ours."
"Perhaps, there just happened to be a Ron in that world who died, and this Ron just happened to fill the void."
(Although separated by a world, his thoughts were intermittently connected to that world, but unable to convey much information, Basil curled the corner of his mouth, "It just so happens that a Ron died? A bold guess. I'd rather believe that the Marvel Cinematic Universe also has Sword in the Stone.")
"I'm dead? Replaced by the Skrull? I replaced the Skrull?"
Ron stood at King's Cross Station, inwardly screaming a hundred times, "Merlin's Beard!"
The wall that was originally the entrance to Platform Nine and Three-Quarters has disappeared.
Instead, not far away, there was a platform surrounded by many people taking pictures with something that looked like Magic Treasure Book. The words on the sign were very clear: Merlin Platform.
The conversations of the people around me were mostly about that platform.
"This is the entrance to the Merlin Dimension."
"I wish I could get into Hogwarts."
"This is too difficult. It requires the rank of top duelist under the age of 17. I wish I were a descendant of a wizard."
"Yes, they were born with Merlin Dimension and possess magic."
"Unlike us, we have to be 11 years old to enter the Duel Arena and then we can get a few spells."
"My Levitation Charm is completely harmless, which has kept me a rookie duelist."
"What? You don't even have 225 points? I'm breaking up with you."
"Elena! No!"
"If I'm not mistaken, you must be a wizard."
A friendly voice rang in Ron's ears. He looked up and saw a middle-aged man with a receding hairline, dressed in a suit and tie, with a warm smile.
It immediately dispelled Ron's unease.
"Yes." Ron awkwardly reached out and shook hands.
"Merlin Dimension," the middle-aged man sighed, "Is the only harmless dimension that is open to the human world. There are eighteen Merlin Platform in the world, where humans can study magic in depth. Vishanti also has to pay a price, Ta Lo is too exclusive, and most dimensions, like the Dark Dimension and Hell Dimension, are eyeing the human world with covetous intent."
"I am Phil Coulson, and I joined S.H.I.E.L.D.. after graduating from Hogwarts."
"You must be Arthur's child. Is this your first time leaving Saint Cachipo Village and coming to the human world? Are you not used to it?"
Of course I wasn't used to it; I was even assassinated.
Ron first complained, then suddenly looked up and asked, "You know my dad?"
Coulson nodded. "We're still classmates. Didn't you come out to look for Harry? Where is he?"
"Harry!" Ron exclaimed, but no one around him paid any attention, as Coulson's power kept the sound contained around the two of them.
Ron, however, paid no attention. He diligently searched his memories, looking for Silk of Harry in this world.
In this world, Harry also grew up in the Merlin Dimension and lived in Godric's Hollow.
The locations where wizards lived in their world, such as St. Catchpo Village, Hogsmeade, Godric's Hollow, and Upper Flagley, all became areas within the Merlin Dimension.
Merlin Dimension is somewhat like the Magic Kingdom, only larger, encompassing not only Hogwarts and Hogsmeade, but also all wizarding villages and half-wizarding villages.
In this world, Voldemort didn't cause any trouble. He was said to have offended a power called Kamar-Taj and was banished to another dimension.
Harry was also unharmed.
Harry came to find his mother, who was in a bad mood, separated from her father, and living with his aunt.
However, no trace of his mother was found on Privet Drive.
So Harry wrote to Sirius's mansion in the human world, inviting him to come and spend the summer vacation there as well.
But this is only in 'Ron's' memory.
In the memory of Skrull named Kent, the letter was written by another Skrull Tyke Skrull, disguised as Harry.
In order to replace him and introduce the real Harry, the prospective disciple of Basil Granger, the Lord of Merlin Dimension.
Ron's eyes instantly became wary.
He forgot that he was now Skrull named Kent.
Thinking he was still Ron, he became wary of Coulson being Skrull.
Coulson didn't pay much attention to Ron's wary look; on the contrary, he was quite approving.
They believed Arthur was wrong; his son was not mindless or thick-skinned.
Ron is quite vigilant, isn't he?
"Ron, don't forget we're near Merlin Dimension," Coulson reminded him, pointing to an old man reading a newspaper not far away. "This area is teeming with guards. Every single one of them is a legendary duelist."
"Even Hydra or aliens wouldn't want to cause trouble here."
"A guard?" Ron suddenly remembered that he was Skrull, and his hair stood on end.
"Don't worry, they're all your father's colleagues," Coulson reassured him. "They all belong to the Department of Magical Law Enforcement. To be precise, their duties are the same as ours at S.H.I.E.L.D.."
"We are only responsible for the human world."
"They are in charge of the magical world, oversee all wizards, and punish their illegal activities."
"And Merlin Platform, the border between the human and magical worlds, will be jointly supervised by us."
