---------------------

'Perfect, another dead end, what am I supposed to do now?'

After a while of sitting on my bed and trying to understand what I should do, I sat back and started thinking about a possible theory.

' Ok, I have something called Magical Energy, this means that even if indirectly I am related to magical environments.'

---------------------

+1 Wis for a correct guess

---------------------

' Ok, useful, this means I am going towards the correct direction, but I have zero knowledge about what is magic and what is not, my uncles never bought a fantasy book or things like that, so I guess I need to visit the library.'

---------------------

'Perfect, this boosts my motivation to find out what I am even more.'

I clicked yes and after changing into my casual clothes, jeans, t-shirt, opened shirt, and a pair of shoes, I got out of under the stairs and headed to the kitchen, where the pigs were still eating.

" Uncle Vernon," I called him.

He turned towards me with an annoyed face and snared towards a What.

" Can I to the library? I need some books for my homework."

'Not now.' I thought while the notification was removed from in front of my face.

" You still have to do your chores." He said while turning back to the tv.

I sighed, completely forgetting about them, I guess the quest will have to wait.

---------------------

' Cool, let's see how this Cleaning skill will do against a house of three pigs.'

And it was pretty useful, what usually took me 2 hours to do, got reduced by half an hour.

After I had finished I headed back to my uncle and asked again if I could go to the library.

" Did you clean the dishes?"

I nodded.

" Did you set the beds?"

I nodded again.

" And did you clean the Bathroom?" He asked expecting a no as an answer.

But I once again nodded.

---------------------

Quest compleated: Clean House

Reward: 30 XP

---------------------

"... Fine, come back by 2 PM, or else..." He didn't end the phrase but I knew what he wanted to say, so I wasted no time and immediately got out of the house.

After I had gotten out I decide to run towards the library, knowing how much energy I actually had, and how far I was from fainting helped.

After 5 minutes of running, I had gotten in front of the library and also received a new skill.

Happy because of the level up I checked both my stats to see if there was any difference, and surprise surprise, a level had rewarded me with a +1 in all stats

' Ok, so levelling is the best way to get better stats, now I am 1 point away from being half as strong as a 10-year-old kid... never mind.'

I got inside the library and headed towards the librarian to ask her where the fantasy area was.

"Excuse me?"

An old lady turned towards me, a hot infusion in her hand, but when she saw me, she placed it down and started talking.

" Can I help you?" She asked with a sweet voice and smile.

" I wanted to ask where the fantasy section was."

" Oh, we have a dreamer, second-floor first bookcase on your right, if I can suggest a series you should read, try the series of The Lord of the rings."

" I will."

I ignored the notification and turned towards the area books where stored only now noticing something.

'... Why are books glowing?'

I walked towards the nearest book that was glowing and when I touched it a notification appeared in front of me.
