This document records in detail everything Charles did after Marauders Era arrived in this timeline. At that time, Lily, James, Potter and Snape were only in fifth grade, and Voldemort was raging around the world, recruiting troops everywhere.
When Charles first arrived, his first priority was to learn magic. Because of Ian's contract, he forgot everything he learned at the Empire, even the basic knowledge of wand casting.
Because he was penniless, he did not hesitate to abandon his moral bottom line, stole Muggles's money, exchanged it for Gringotts for Galleon, and then bought Hogwarts first and second grade textbooks.
With his [24-hour look back] ability, he quickly mastered all Magical Theory and basic spells.
But he knew that this was not enough. In order to realize his ambition, he needed deeper magical knowledge. Therefore, he relied on his First Tier Arcanist's strength (far superior to most wizards who were still at the Zero Tier apprentice level at the time), coupled with his Wandless Magic advantage as a mage, to secretly rob Flourish and Blotts.
After obtaining the knowledge, Charles formulated a preliminary plan. The biggest problem before him was that he was not a wizard and could not produce magic power in his body. He tried to reproduce Empire's meditation method, but this was the result of Hermione's research that took several years and countless resources, so he naturally ended in failure.
He realized that the best way to solve this problem was to inject magical blood into his body and transform into a wizard. At first, he was very resistant to this idea due to the potential fatal risks.
But for the sake of strength, he had no choice but to turn his research focus to bloodline theory. While Dumbledore and Order of the Phoenix were busy fighting against Voldemort, he quietly sneaked into Hogwarts and copied the entire the Library book collection.
In addition, he visited other magic schools around the world as well as many ancient Pure-blood families libraries.
When Ian saw this, he couldn't help but comment. "This guy has unknowingly embarked on the same path as me." He has never disclosed this experience in his early years, so it is absolutely impossible for Charles to imitate intentionally. 'However, I did it more thoroughly than him back then.' Ian thought to himself.
Charles ignored the Muggles world, such as Vatican, who believed that there could be no magical knowledge there, but Ian did not let go of any clues, and even drew inspiration from Muggles's various absurd theories about magic and witchcraft.
With a large number of books as a basis, Charles began research on bloodline transformation. But magic research takes a long time - unless you are a unique genius like Ian.
Charles's talent is only reflected in the speed of learning. Although his Time Rewind ability allows him to obtain research results 24 hours in advance, it is still a drop in the bucket for long scientific research because he cannot Infinity use this ability exclusively.
He foresaw that his strength would not be substantially improved for a long time. So, he used the most important lesson he learned from the Empire - to use the power of the group to help him climb.
Using Imperius Curse and other Dark Magic, he controlled countless Muggles scientists around the world, showed them the existence of magic, and opened his own the Library to them.
He had only one purpose: to use the wisdom of these scientists to accelerate his magic research. This strategy was very successful. After conducting cruel human experiments on a large number of dark wizards and even Muggles death row prisoners, his bloodline infusion research made breakthrough progress.
However, three years have passed, and the research is still a long way from being completed. At this time, Lily and James have graduated from Hogwarts, and Snape has also joined Death Eaters. Charles knows that there is not much time left for this pair of hard-luck mandarin ducks.
His plan is to save Lily·Potter, and then slowly turn her into his own woman.
At the same time, he wants to use the death of Voldemort to become famous in Wizarding World and accumulate strength in secret.
In order to achieve this goal, Charles decided to take a risk. He directly injected the blood he researched into his body. As for the possible death consequences? He didn't care at all. The worst he could do was to start over and go back to 24 hours ago.
After hundreds of attempts, failures and deaths, he finally succeeded in integrating Basilisk's blood into his body and became a true wizard. Charles took the crucial first step - his body could finally produce magic power on its own.
But this is not enough. He also needs to face the next challenge - to break the bloodline restriction, that is, the three "Limiter". Because he originally possessed the magic level of First Tier, this can be regarded as that he has broken the first Limiter. Now, he needs to find a way to break the second and third Limiter, thereby being promoted to the Third Tier position.
What Luck has is that Ian has not completely erased all his memories of Limiter. He vaguely remembers that breaking different Limiter requires different methods, and each method must be better than the last.
Charles knew very well that the simplest and crudest way was to inject a second bloodline. But he decided to keep this method as a backup and continue to look for other ways.
He was lucky and soon found the answer in the vast amount of knowledge he collected. Some ancient Pure-blood families (including Dumbledore family) actually held knowledge about Limiter.
Dumbledore once suggested that Ian take this path instead of conducting any dangerous bloodline experiments. This most primitive and orthodox method is extremely boring basic magic training.
Through extreme training day after day, year after year, wizards can break limitations by relying on their own strength. The only drawback is that it is too time-consuming - but this is exactly what Charles lacks the most.
After several years of crazy training, Charles successfully broke through the second Limiter and was promoted to the Second Tier position. In this world, his current strength is enough to compete with Dumbledore and Grindelwald. Only Voldemort is a little stronger than him.
After reaching the peak of his strength, Charles began to make a high-profile appearance in Wizarding World, and even personally led the wizards to fight against Voldemort.
Dumbledore became suspicious of his sudden power, so he invited him to join Order of the Phoenix so that he could keep a close eye on him. But this played into Charles's hands. He finally had a legitimate reason to contact everyone - especially Lily and James.
On the fateful night when Voldemort fell, Charles made sure to stay in Potter family. When Voldemort broke in and killed When James happened, Charles very "cleverly" hid in the bathroom. Then, he arrived "in time" and started a fierce fight with Voldemort.
Although he was defeated, he managed to save his life. In the end, Lily released [Love Magic], and Voldemort was killed by his own Avada Kedavra. And Charles immediately used the Dark Magic that he had already prepared, injecting huge vitality into Lily's body and forcibly preventing her soul from entering Afterlife, thereby pulling her back from the edge of death.
Everything was developing according to his script. James died, Voldemort died, Lily and Harry survived. Although there are very few people who are suspicious of his behavior, they do not have any evidence.
After this battle, Lily and Charles became the Chosen One of the entire Wizarding World. Charles struck while the iron was hot and began to implement the next step of his plan. At a solemn Order of the Phoenix regular meeting, he staged an extremely realistic "emotional breakdown" drama.
He bitterly accused Wizarding World of making no progress over the years. It was this outdated system that led to the birth of monsters like Voldemort and the tragic death of innocent people like James.
He announced in public that a thorough change must be carried out. Many people stood up and severely criticized him, saying that his ideas were extremely dangerous and even the same as Grindelwald and Voldemort.
Charles immediately showed great remorse and sincerely apologized, and everyone forgave him, thinking that he was only temporarily stimulated by James's death and the cruelty of the war.
However, Charles's goal has been achieved - he has found an extremely reasonable excuse for the radical changes he will implement in the future, and at the same time, he has also successfully planted a seed of doubt in the hearts of some people.
Immediately afterwards, he started his next plan.
