'I suppose I can get more information by concentrating on the spell in question?'

[Indeed.]

After focusing on the spell, I got more information.

〖 Fire-Making spell〗

〖 Potential: Low〗

〖 -Train- -Tutorial- -Simulation-〗

'What difficulty and potential means?'

[First is how hard to learn. Second is the representation of spell potential.]

'And what it the potential of spell?'

[Understanding of this heavily depends on your knowledge. Cannot be explained.]

'Hm… Okay. What is the point of training inside a virtual environment if I can just cast spells outside?'

[Some spells can't be trained without specific targets, while others considered dark arts by people and will bring only life imprisonment if caught.]

'Makes sense. The tutorial is kind of self-explanatory. What is a simulation?'

'How do I introduce these changes?'

[Unknown. The system can work only with completed structure.]

'Is it also one of the things that depend on my knowledge?'

[Indeed.]

Now I felt a real need for more knowledge. This world is a bit more complicated than it looked in the film.

*Back to present*

After that, I really wanted to go to the library and find books about magic and explanation on how it all works. However, I had alchemy early in the morning and I wanted to be as fresh as possible. I read school alchemy book a little before sleep. Just first chapters and fell asleep.

Alchemy went similar to what happened in the film. I felt a little bit bad for Potter because he really did nothing wrong or bad to receive such treatment. Otherwise, the lesson was interesting. I raised alchemy thanks to the lesson and got a level up.

After all the lessons on Friday finished, I went to the library where Granger soon found me reading. Because it was a library, we could not talk too much, but we still kept close to each other.

*Friday after lessons*

Maybe we both felt better if we were not alone and there was a friend close to us. I had nobody close to me here, except for her and sometimes I felt lonely against my will. I suppose that what feelings are… Even if you don't want them, they will force you to feel them.

”*Sigh* I am a human, after all.”

”What else can you be?”

Hermione sitting near me asked with interest.

”I am just happy, that I have a friend here, with whom I can talk and discuss interests. I… don't feel as lonely. Thank you.”

”No need! I mean, don't mention it. We are friends, after all. No need to thank me!”

She was flustered a tiny little bit. In the beginning, she even raised a voice, forgetting we were in the library. Well, I am happy I have a friend. But she needs to get friendlier with the main protagonist as well. He will decide the fate of the world after all.

'*Sigh* I need to make them friends and get friendlier with them as well. Damn. So much work…'

*To the present*

In any case, I spent a weekend reading books on magic, its creation, spells, construction of them and many other things. I just had breakfast in the morning and went to the library till late night and only then returned tired and sleepy to fall into the dreamland. That how it was for those 2 days. I got literally zero rest.

What I got though is a new skill that also started with zero, but thanks to constant grinding of knowledge without rest I got it to raise a few levels.

『 Magic Theory 0 ➔ 1 』

…

『 Magic Theory 5 ➔ 6 』

Another result I got after intense research is a simple fact. We are not learning magic right now, it seems… we are learning spellcasting.
