In the Wizarding World, each wizarding family possesses its own unique magical knowledge.

Just like Rowle's Tartarus, only Rowle can do that.

There's also the Weasley family's unique alchemy skills.

The Weasley Twins' inventions, the grandfather clock in the Burrow, and the Flying Ford Anglia, in the original timeline, gained independent consciousness and roamed the Forbidden Forest —all demonstrate the Weasley's exceptional skill.

Kate knows these things very well; for her, it's as common sense as the Earth being round.

So even though she trusted Ryan a lot, she still subconsciously questioned Ryan answer, "Potter must have other sources of magical knowledge— Weasley and Black Family."

"The Weasley family's Alchemy?"

Harry wasn't interested.

Even within the Weasley, only the Weasley Twins and Arthur Weasley had any knowledge of this.

As for the Black Family...

Their magic is too evil.

In Sirius's eyes, they were all toxic teaching materials and should all be burned.

How could he possibly allow his godson to watch and learn from this?

In Godric's Hollow, inside Potter Cottage, Harry suddenly opened his eyes.

He had already thought of that possible magic.

Just as Ryan had thought, he deduced through logical thinking that the magic did not come from Hogwarts.

Although he took many detours, he finally figured it out.

The Mind Games lean towards combat, while Moon City's are related to body forging. The only one left is that— the Magic Imbuement in the academy version of the Potions- making process.

Magic Imbuement refers to gazing at or directly touching the ingredients of Potions, imagining them as part of oneself, and thus permeating the material with one's own magic, becoming one with it.

The Potions for the next step of using spells to extract juice or crystals.

Its biggest challenge is how to imagine that external objects are part of oneself.

However, his Contract Tree and Potions ingredients are different, so it can be said that he completely bypassed this point.

Because until he unilaterally severed the contract, that tree was himself.

Thinking about this, he couldn't sit still any longer.

He rubbed his thighs, which were slightly sore from sitting cross-legged for too long, tapped the mirror next to him, and disappeared from the spot.

After another familiar darkness, he returned to his room.

His eyes immediately fell on the flowerpot on the table.

It seemed that with his arrival, the tender saplings began to sway gently in the absence of wind.

Thump! Thump! Thump!

As his magic entered, Harry felt the surroundings become quiet.

A faint yet distinct heartbeat began to grow clearer as the outline of the Holly Tree in his heart became more distinct.

He seemed to have become that tree.

His lower body was embedded in the moist, soft soil.

The dark soil seemed to connect to his veins, and the sunlight from outside the window seeped into his hair.

The two converged in his pounding heart, and a strange feeling of fullness, accompanied by a stretching of his body, kept surging forth.

It felt like being scorched by heat and thirsty for a long time, then encountering ice water—utterly irresistible.

All I could think about was, "More! I want more!"

It felt like an eternity later, he was ejected from his body, as if his soul had left his body.

Harry opened his eyes and couldn't help but touch his body.

He clearly has a strong body.

But now, he has a strange sense of loss.

He seemed to be in a spirit state, like a lost soul that would dissipate with a gust of wind.

In my eyes, that lush green sapling seemed like another version of myself.

He felt as if he were looking in a mirror, with another version of himself waving and smiling at him.

This feeling left him feeling lost and disillusioned.

It took me a long time to come to my senses.

Harry wanted to continue with the previous steps.

But his intuition told him that the Contract Tree had reached its limit.

If you still want to, you'll have to wait until tomorrow.

Several days have passed since Kate's birthday.

While relaxing in the gazebo in the orchard of Smith Castle, Kate and Penelope once again speculated about Harry Potter's awakened abilities.

After being denied by Ryan multiple times.

Bored, the two began to guess what kind of magic could increase the progress bar of the Arborsage profession's magical transformation.

But this time, something's a bit strange.

After Penelope guessed several times, Kate didn't guess even once.

However, she wasn't giving up.

On the contrary, she held her head high and puffed out her chest, looking very confident.

Penelope finally snapped, "Kate, if you know the answer, just tell me! Am I going to eat you?"

"Hmph!" Kate chuckled, looked around, and then turned to Ryan, saying, "The answer is Magic Imbuement! I almost forgot, I was there too."

Harry Potter saw the book recommended by Ryan, "First-Year Potion-Making".

"You're right this time, Kate." Ryan nodded.

"Ah~, why? What's the principle behind this?" Penelope asked curiously.

"This has something to do with a nasty character in the A History of Magic."

In the Middle Ages, people preferred to communicate through duels.

Therefore, wizards of that time all considered becoming duelists as their ideal, even though medieval duelists generally had very short lifespans.

Because, before the Ministry of Magic began to regulate the use of Dark Magic, duels were usually fatal.

The person I'm talking about is Godelot.

He was a rare duelist who died of old age—because of the dangerous spells he invented and his own research in the field of Dark Magic.

However, he claimed that it had nothing to do with him personally, and that he wrote the spell and advanced the research under the guidance of his Elmhorn Wand.

In his notebook, he described his wand as "my most wicked and enigmatic friend."

Clearly, Godelot viewed his wand as a partner, or even a mentor.

Many wizards recorded in A History of Magic as possessing immense magical power believed that Godelot had gone mad from studying Dark Magic. He was talking nonsense. (Kate interjected, "He's not mad? But why don't so many wizards think so?")

"Because knowledge about wands is kept secret by wandmakers and is shrouded in mystery."

Those familiar with Wandlore believe that wands can indeed absorb the user's skills.

This is why most wizards prefer to use a wand that they 'choose' rather than any secondhand wand.

Because a secondhand wand may have picked up some habits from its previous owner, which may not match the new owner's magical style.

"Wands are usually buried (or burned) with their owners, a practice that also prevents a wand from learning from too many owners," Ryan said.

"But what does this have to do with the Arborsage?" Penelope couldn't help but ask.

Ryan pointed to the wand in his hand, "Wands are made of magical substances from Fantastic Beasts (hair, heartstrings, nerves, etc.) combined with wand wood."

Wizards are also a type of Care of Magical Creatures.

The owner's hair was incorporated into the planting of the Contract Tree, and it is also a species that can grow into a wand tree.

Therefore, the Contract Tree is like a magic wand.

Magical transformation is the feedback given to the master by the 'wand' after it has learned something to a certain extent.

And Magic Imbuement is the elixir that accelerates the learning speed of 'wands'.
