The elderly man with white hair standing before Alex was none other than Albus Dumbledore. After Madam Rolanda Hooch rushed to the Headmaster's office to inform him of Alex's latest magical innovation, Dumbledore could no longer contain his curiosity and decided to seek out the gifted young wizard himself.
Dumbledore regarded Alex with a complex expression, a mixture of admiration and concern. After taking a moment to collect his thoughts, he finally spoke: "Mr. Alex, would you be willing to have a chat with an old man like me?"
Alex, understanding full well why Dumbledore had come, assumed it was about the spells and potions he had recently invented. He replied calmly, "Of course, Headmaster Dumbledore."
As soon as Alex agreed, a phoenix suddenly appeared beside him. Before he could react, he felt a faint, almost imperceptible dizziness. When his vision cleared, he found himself in a room adorned with portraits of past headmasters and headmistresses.
In the room, besides Dumbledore, who had Apparated him there, were Professors Rolanda Hooch, Minerva McGonagall, Severus Snape, and... Harry Potter?
Alex's sharp eyes caught something unusual. He turned to look at Harry, only to discover that the famous boy-who-lived was now... a girl. When Harry—or rather, Harriet—noticed Alex's gaze, she gave him a strained smile.
Standing beside her, however, was Professor Snape, whose radiant and genuine smile contrasted starkly with Harriet's awkward demeanor.
Alex was momentarily stunned. He hadn't expected Snape to act so quickly. In less than a day, the professor had managed to gather the ingredients for the Ancestral Potion and even convince Harry to drink it, turning him into Harriet Potter.
As Alex and Dumbledore entered, all eyes turned to Alex. Their expressions were complicated, as if they were looking at a rising star whose brilliance was unprecedented.
Dumbledore was the first to break the silence. "Mr. Alex, I've been informed by several professors that you've recently invented some spells and a potion. These include the Enchantment Spell, the Enhanced Transfiguration Spell, and the Ancestral Potion.
Are these truly your own creations?"
Without hesitation, Alex answered, "Yes, they are all my inventions. During the two months of summer vacation, I read a significant amount of magical literature and created these spells and potions.
Why do you ask, Headmaster Dumbledore? Do you doubt that they are my creations?"
Dumbledore nodded slightly and said frankly, "I must apologize, Mr. Alex. Please forgive our skepticism. It's just that the feats you've achieved are beyond extraordinary. In the history of magic, there has never been a young wizard like you.
So, I must ask if you could provide some form of proof—perhaps by explaining the inspiration and purpose behind your inventions."
Alex raised an eyebrow in confusion and replied, "Inspiration? I'm sorry, Headmaster Dumbledore, but I didn't really have any specific inspiration for inventing these spells.
I simply thought they would be... fun.
When I first encountered magic, I remembered the magical creatures like slimes mentioned in Muggle fantasy novels. This led me to purchase books on Transfiguration. After learning the basics, I modified the spell to create a specialized version that allows objects or beings to transform into magical creatures."
When I discovered that the power of modern wizards comes from their bloodline, I purchased books on potion-making and developed the initial version of the Ancestral Potion based on my own body.
Of course, since the potion was designed using my own physiology, it didn't have any side effects on me. However, for others, it can only restore the maternal bloodline, and it comes with the unintended side effect of transforming the person's appearance to match their mother's.
As the school year approached, I realized that while the magical household spells in the wizarding world are well-developed, they still require wizards to actively focus on controlling things like brooms sweeping the floor or utensils preparing meals, and the effects are often short-lived. So, I invented the Enchantment Spell, which allows for the creation of intelligent magical furniture capable of operating independently for extended periods.@@@@
Finally, Alex personally demonstrated the workings of the Enchantment Spell in front of the professors. With this, the professors were fully convinced that these powerful spells were indeed his creations.
Professor Snape was the first to express his support for Alex.
"I knew it! Mr. Alex is absolutely extraordinary. He is a genius wizard who surpasses even Dumbledore!"
Professor McGonagall glanced at the blue slime transformed from a book and nodded in agreement.
"I concur. I believe that Mr. Alex's invention of these spells merits the Order of Merlin, First Class. Any one of these innovations would be considered groundbreaking!"
Professor Rolanda Hooch added,
"Exactly! Professor McGonagall is right. The Enchantment Spell alone could revolutionize Quidditch. I can't even imagine how incredible it would feel to fly on a broom with intelligence that works seamlessly with its rider!"
Finally, Dumbledore also nodded and said, "Indeed. I will write to the Order of Merlin committee to nominate Alex for the First-Class Order of Merlin. He is entirely deserving of this honor."
Professor Hooch then suddenly had a realization. "With all of us endorsing him, Alex might actually become the youngest recipient of the First-Class Order of Merlin! Wouldn't he?"
Dumbledore nodded but then shook his head. "True, but compared to Alex's inventions, the Order of Merlin itself seems almost insignificant.
The greatness of Alex's creations cannot be fully expressed with just a First-Class Order of Merlin."
The other professors nodded in unison. "That's absolutely true!"
While the professors were discussing, Harriet Potter stood nearby, her mouth hanging open in shock as she stared at Alex.
We're both first-year students, so how are you this amazing?
I haven't even mastered a single spell, and you're already being awarded the Order of Merlin, First Class?
It was the interface of Minecraft!
Alex immediately realized what his new skill could do—it allowed the once-virtual game to invade reality. He could now play Minecraft in the real world!
Suddenly, his expression shifted as he noticed something. A glint of delight flashed across his face.
He had discovered that Minecraft's rules had a remarkably high priority, even surpassing the natural laws of the Harry Potter world. Not even the wizarding world's magical framework could resist the invasion of Minecraft's rules.
This meant he could use the power of the Steve Template within the Harry Potter world!
Without hesitation, Alex began training with his newly acquired skill.
After several hours of practice, Game Rules had reached Lv3. Its range had expanded a hundredfold, now able to affect an area with a radius of 100 kilometers.
...
In the Harry Potter world, following Dumbledore's letter to the Merlin Knights Committee, the entire wizarding community underwent an earth-shaking transformation in a very short time.
The rise of the Soul Enchantment Spell, the Specialized Transfiguration Spell, and the Ancestral Restoration Potion spread like wildfire among wizards. Each of these creations, on its own, was a groundbreaking invention capable of fundamentally altering the status quo of the wizarding world. Yet, their simultaneous emergence was like a nuclear bomb exploding in a small pond—sending shockwaves across the magical community.
And at the heart of it all, there was one name: Alex.
When wizards first learned that all three of these revolutionary creations came from a single individual, they realized that a wizard with the potential to surpass Dumbledore himself had appeared.
But when they discovered that the inventor of these groundbreaking spells and potions was merely a first-year student, most laughed, dismissing it as a hoax.
However, when it became clear that the source of this information was the Merlin Knights and the testimony of the greatest wizard of the age, Dumbledore, their skepticism turned to disbelief.
Finally, when the professors of Hogwarts stood united in support of this young wizard, the magical community could no longer deny the truth. They realized that a future wizard, destined to eclipse Dumbledore and perhaps rival the legendary Merlin himself, had emerged.
Even more shocking was that this prodigy hailed from the Muggle world.
---
While Alex's name echoed far beyond the walls of Hogwarts, the young wizard himself—hailed by the media as the one destined to surpass Dumbledore—continued attending classes unperturbed.
During another flying lesson, Alex tested the limits of his abilities. After upgrading his Game Rules skill to Level 3, he could now extend Minecraft's rules to a radius of one kilometer around him.
Though the oppressive magical framework of the Harry Potter world reduced the effective range to just 10 meters, it was more than enough for Alex.
When he activated Game Rules, subtle changes occurred around him. Though everything seemed the same at first glance, Alex could now see the world broken down into Minecraft-style blocks.
Hermione, standing closest to him, immediately noticed something strange. She watched as Alex, holding what appeared to be an ordinary wooden pickaxe, struck the ground and left deep cracks.
Curious, she asked, "Alex, what are you doing? Is this one of your new spells?"
Alex placed a block of dirt onto the ground and replied, "Yes, it's a new spell. At the moment, it's still in its infancy, so only I can use it. However, I can give you a medium that contains a fragment of its power—something like a crude wand. With it, you'll be able to use part of this spell's abilities."
Alex handed the wooden pickaxe to Hermione, who swung it at the ground. As cracks spread across the dirt block, a weightless dirt cube materialized in her hands. Hermione quickly realized she could place it back onto the ground, creating a perfect one-cubic-meter block of dirt.
Excited by the discovery, Alex and Hermione began collecting dirt blocks and using them to construct a small house. Thanks to the Game Rules effect, the dirt blocks were unaffected by gravity, allowing them to build without worrying about structural integrity. In no time, they had completed a small, functional house.
Their activity soon drew the attention of other students, who watched in awe. Seeing their enthusiasm, Alex gave each of them a wooden pickaxe imbued with the spell's power, inviting them to join in the construction.
With everyone working together, the simple house quickly expanded into a towering castle that stood dozens of meters tall, crafted entirely from dirt blocks.
Of course, this unusual scene didn't go unnoticed by the professors. Eventually, even Dumbledore arrived to investigate the commotion.
Apparating to Alex's side, Dumbledore gazed at the blocky castle with wide-eyed amazement. "Merlin's beard! What on earth is this?" he exclaimed. "Alex, have you created another new spell?"
Alex repeated what he had explained to Hermione earlier.
After hearing the explanation, Dumbledore fell silent for a long time. The sheer brilliance of Alex's talents left him stunned. In just a few days, this young wizard had developed yet another groundbreaking spell.
Judging by its capabilities, it was a creation that could easily rival Transfiguration itself.
