Chapter 4: Surprised!

It had been a month since Kent got the simulation system and he had never been happier.

The set of optimized exercises that he got was far more magical than he thought. In only two weeks he could feel the difference. His stamina, speed, flexibility and reflex, everything had been enhanced. Additionally the nutrition drink he optimized using the system was a great supplement for his and Hermione's exercise.

They both grew a few centimetres in the last month.

It was impossible for Hermione to copy the the set of exercises to exact details as she didn't have the simulation system and also her physique was of a female, so there ought to be few deviation but the end result were pretty good.

Hermione was also very happy and at the same time a bit shocked. Well, anybody ought to be shock when a set of pretty ordinary exercise could produce such magical result.

In the past month, there had been another major thing that happened, that is, he and Hermione got along pretty well. Earlier she was a bit colder to him, to which Kent couldn't find any reason.

Seeing the magical effect of the , Kent optimized another set of exercise just for wrist and finger movements. It was for easier and faster wand movement in the future. He didn't share it with Hermione as he couldn't say that he knew that they were magical and they would get Hogwarts letter on their 11th birthday.

As for how Kent knew that he was a wizard, it was the pub called 'Leaky Cauldron'. No muggle would be able to see much less enter the leaky cauldron, but he could see and also enter. He didn't linger much as he didn't want to venture into the magical world without much protection.

In addition to doing exercise daily and practicing the set of wrist movements Kent also kept recording any valuable books he got, Mathematics, Engineering, Computer Science, Electronics, Chemistry, Physics and Biology and also the auxiliary subjects like drawing, sculpting, designing and many more. He didn't need the knowledge at present but it might be required in the future. He also wanted to start early in the magical education but considering the risk of exposing himself to the magical world early, he gave up the thought.

Well he didn't want to eat more than what he could chew.

In the spare times, he searched particularly for books or any form of knowledge about runes, ancient relics, metaphysics and mythology and chinese qi(spirit) meditation available in the non-magical world. He wanted to develop a skill like 'danger sense', so that he could have a better chance at surviving the bleak future.

He knew it would be difficult but that didn't stop him from trying. The first two trials ended in failure. When he set the desired function and purpose of the skill and selected the appropriate data from the 'Library', he got the notification that there was not enough relevant data.

'Who knows how much knowledge I need to collect to develop the skill! Will I even be able to develop such skill? No! I can't give up!' Kent was in a dilemma. As there was no convenient mode of acquiring knowledge like Internet on a mobile or a laptop, it was pretty difficult to go around libraries and bookshops to collect the necessary data. It takes a lot of time.

'Well, I will collect as much as possible in the spare time and after a year, I will try again to depelop the danger sense skill' he decided after some pondering.

...

1 year later...

"Finally, Lets hope that it will work this time," mumbled Kent. He was sitting on his bed with the door closed. It was nighttime, so it was unlikely that anyone would come but to be sure he locked the door from inside.

Kent had collected as much as he could in the last year about metascience, mythology, runes etc.

He opened the system page and clicked on the 'Deduce and Optimize' option.

Kent had organised the data in the 'Library' in various sections based on which topic the data is about, like, any mythological data is present in the 'Mythology' section etc.

He selected the Runes, Astrology, Mythology, Metascience etc. He basically selected all the data he collected. It was because even if a piece of data was not relevant it would be excluded automatically.

Its like if you want to develop a martial skill and select some data on martial arts and also data on how to cook, the system will still optimize the martial skill.

After selecting the data, he specified the function of the skill, i.e., detect danger to oneself in advance including the direction in which the danger is coming. It would be disastrous if you know that danger is coming but don't know from where its coming.

After rechecking all the entries, he hesitated for a moment but clenching his fist, he clicked submit.

"Fortunately!" Looking at the system screen, Kent sighed as if a heavy weight had been lifted off his shoulders.

He closed the system panel happily.

Thinking about the future, it didn't take long before he fell asleep.
