1 Chapter 1 Jon Green

The quality of the air in London in 1991 was quite average.

Even though he had been in this world for almost a year, Jon was still not used to the slightly grey sky even in the summer season.

In this world, his identity is that of an orphan who has been brought up in an orphanage.

But in fact, like thousands of fantasy stories, Jon, who on the surface looks like an ordinary 11-year-old boy, has a soul from the 21st century.

In his previous life, Jon was a newly hired employee who had just entered the workplace.

One day on his way to work, he witnessed a motorbike accident in which two young men about his age, who were riding the bike together were hit, and tragically fell into the river by the road.

Instead of standing by and watching on the sidelines with indifference, Jon who had considered himself a good swimmer took off his jacket and jumped into the water to help.

He had just grabbed a young man who had fallen into the stream and was about to swim towards the shore when unfortunately the water weed caught his ankle and caused his calf to cramp up when he struggled, and he ended up not only failing to save the man but also getting himself killed.

Luckily for him, God has not closed his eyes completely, and by the time Jon, who had lost consciousness underwater, reopened his eyes, he was in a British hospital as a nine-year-old boy named Jon Green, who was abandoned by his parents when he was born and later found and raised in an orphanage.

The doctors diagnosed that he had suffered a violent blow on the head, causing a concussion.

And the Jon who woke up had not inherited any semblance of memory except the gift of speech that had become instinctive within the original owner's body.

Luckily, a diagnosis like a concussion became the perfect excuse for his memory loss; after all, the human brain was something that hadn't been thoroughly researched even in the 21st century, let alone right now in the late 20th century.

After being brought back to the orphanage from the hospital, Jon had basically figured out the situation of the body he had been reborn into.

The original owner had always been a silent, withdrawn, timid and self-absorbed character in the orphanage, and he seemed quite unremarkable among all the children except for his outstanding looks, and because of all this, he had become the lowest of the bunch.

During a spring outing, some boys took the opportunity to force the original owner to the edge of a dirt slope.

Afterwards, the original owner hit the back of his head on a raised rock as he rolled down, which led Jon, who later crossed over (transmigrated), to possess the poor boy.

But according to the children, Jon was not forced by them to fall down, rather, as they were forcing him, he suddenly flew up, knocking everyone else around him, then fell from the sky and finally rolled down from the top of the dirt slope before hitting the rock.

Of course, the adults would not believe such an obvious lie, which only a child could make up, and they just considered it as an excuse the children made up to get away with it.

But Jon, who had just crossed over and had already experienced an unscientific event, became suspicious of it.

But no matter what he tried to do, he was unable to detect anything special in his body, so he gave up the illusion that he had actually gained superpowers after crossing over.

After all, no matter how he looked at it, he had only crossed over from the year 2020 to 1991 and judging from both history and the current state of affairs, it looked completely identical to his world, only with a difference in the timeline.

After clearly understanding the situation, Jon, for whom the time-travel had become an established fact, took the mindset that he would just accept what he was given.

Although he was not an orphan in his previous life, his parents divorced when he was very young, and both of them never bothered about him at all, other than giving birth to him. Later, they both started their own new families.

Jon, who had been brought up by his grandmother, also lost her, his only family, when he went to university, and since then he had lived on his own, without a care in the world.

Since he had nothing to worry about, he could live his life anywhere, not to mention the fact that he has the advantage of foresight brought by time-travelling back to the 20th century. So even in unfamiliar England, he doesn't think he will lead a bad life with such a good deck of cards in his hand.

However, as a child, it is not easy to go out and do certain things, so Jon can only stay in the orphanage where he was raised for the time being.

Now of course Jon's situation in the orphanage is completely different from that of the original owner.

It's not that he has done anything, but after the incident on the spring outing, the other children all see him as a freak through word of mouth, and the verbal and physical bullying has turned into cold violence.

He really liked this, and from whatever point of view, he didn't want to get involved with a group of big kids who has a habit of bullying 9-year-old and would mostly end up causing more problems in society.

Sitting on the yard swing, Jon was looking up at the bright green yew tree that towered in the middle of the yard.

A few children around him, who are all slightly older than him, looked at him with a peculiar look and then moved away from him as if they were avoiding the plague.

Jon didn't notice their expressions, as all his attention was drawn to one place at the moment.

At the entrance to the orphanage, Mrs Chris, who acted as the matron, is leading a young man in.

There was nothing peculiar about such an action; although this orphanage he is living in is small, every now and then, there will be people from London who would drop by to volunteer.

What really struck Jon as odd was the young man's clothes.

He wore a long black robe with a snake crest embroidered on his chest.

This did not look like modern clothing but rather resembled the illustrations of medieval wizards featured in the orphanage folklore books that Jon had read through.

The young man did not appear to be very old, probably under thirty.

His complexion was pale as if he hadn't been exposed to the sun for years, his yellowish hair was neatly groomed, and he walked alongside Mrs Chris with a light smile on his face, looking like a relatively easy person to get along with.

As if noticing Jon's gaze, the young man in the black robe looked over at him.

As they met, Jon looked into his eyes and for some reason, he felt a bone-chilling coldness in them and shivered as he slightly averted his gaze.

And it was at that moment Mrs Chris said something to that man, and together they came closer to Jon.

"Jon Green?" The young man asked gently.

Jon was obviously a little taken aback by the situation, and with this gesture, the other man seemed to have come specifically to see him.

"Yes, sir."

Hearing Jon's words, the young man did not introduce himself, but turned his head to Mrs Chris and said.

"I need to talk to this boy alone."

Surprisingly, Mrs Chris, in contrast to her usual mean and sarcastic nature, did not hesitate or ask any more questions in the face of the young man's tone of voice that was unmistakably an order, and simply turned around to give them privacy.

The expression on Jon's face did not change, but in his heart, he had a vague feeling that something is not quite right.

Just as he was feeling uneasy, a yellowed parchment and a feather quill flew out of the youth's pocket, defying common sense, and hovered in front of Jon's body!

"Congratulations, Mr Jon Green, because of your unique talent, Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry has opened its doors to you. Just by simply signing this letter of acceptance, you will become a soon-to-be Junior Wizard."
