Potter Mansion.

There was the rhythmic tapping of my fingers on the table in the living room, where the Potter family, along with Dumbledore, sat besides me.

After my arrival, the school representatives had gone back to their rooms to bolster their defenses. Zelretch had gone to prepare the area for my training. And Lily Potter insisted that I stay with them for the time being, to which I shrugged and went along, since there was basically nothing for me to do. After all, I could deal with Voldy at any moment.

- "Pretty cocky, though given the level of power in this world, I can't deny the validity of what you're saying." I heard a familiar voice in my head.

Ah, yes. Goetia is still with me, which I'm frankly glad about. After a brief conversation, I was able to find out that I wasn't the only one with a memory lapse, and he was, please note, a Beast.

The last thing on my mind was how I activated the 3rd magic in the forest of familiars. And after that, there was a void, as if that period of time had just been cut out of my memory. But as I realize, I was still lucky, as Goetia, in addition to losing some of his memory, also passed out for a while, which I was genuinely surprised about. Zelretch only became even more serious at my questions.

There was also a question about Alaya DxD. Without my guidance, the Servants can do as they please, and I haven't mentioned Ophis and Tiamat yet. The situation with the loli dragon might still be tolerable, but with Tiamat... I can only trust that Grandfather and Emiya will somehow contain my entire gang.

Aside from that, I managed to find out why this version of Potter didn't have a scar, or rather he did, but not anymore. Basically, everything happened about the same as in the movie. The Potters left the child in the care of Pettigrew, and themselves went to some event. Further everything is the same as in the original.

True, when he was reborn, he took a piece of his soul along with his scar with the help of an artifact that he obtained in an incomprehensible way, which increased his power. I believe he is now collecting other Horcruxes.

- "Mr. Archaman? Is everything all right? You seem to have lost your mind." Dumbledore decided to ask and interrupt my musings.

- "Uh-huh. Did you want something?" I created a cup of coffee in my hand and took a sip, to which I received surprised looks from those present.

- "I'd like to know more about the magic you use," he began, "Without casting a spell or wand, you created that intimidating spear, as well as this cup. Can you tell me about it?"

- "Oya? Is wandless magic unknown here? Or is my information out of date?"

- "Of course it is," James said, "It's mostly used by members of the Clock Tower. But when you created both the spear and the cup, I, and I think everyone else, didn't feel a drop of magic. And that's strange..."

- "And?"

- "Is it really 'magic'?" Valerie questioned, "At Hogwarts we were taught that any spell releases waves of magic. And you don't have any."

- "Hmm..." I wondered if I should tell them the principles of Nasuverse magic. In fact, it doesn't harm this world in any way. Perhaps it would even encourage local wizards to study science and Muggles, but...

Why not, though?

- "In my world, anyone can become a wizard if the necessary conditions are met. One condition, to be exact, is to have magical chains."

- "Everyone?" Dumbledore marveled.

- "Magic chains?" Lily didn't understand.

- "The local mages have a magical core instead. There are those who are born without them and are incapable of magic, however, there are such cases here too."
