Chapter 2: Chapter 2: Card draw!

The reason for Tom's daze was not because he heard about the magic school, but because his damn system had finally responded.

He had woken up the system since he was seven years old, AND he had done nothing but post four quests a day! But just now, as Professor McGonagall said "You've been accepted to Hogwarts," there was a cracking sound in Tom's head, as if a chain had been broken, and a tide of memories came flooding back into his mind.

At the same time, a cold, female voice rang in his head: [Ding! System activated!]

[Intelligent voice assistant installation in progress...]

[Installing character panel...]

[Loading the quest system...]

[Installation of system card draw is complete!]

Professor McGonagall looked at her pocket watch and realized she didn't have much time left, she had two young wizards to brief today, and she said to Tom, "I know this is too much of a shock for you, and it sounds like you need time to take all this in. I'll check back with you tomorrow, I hope you'll have made up your mind by then."

And with a snap, Professor McGonagall disappeared. Tom was left stunned in his place.

After a while, Tom came back to reality, gradually digested his memories and felt a mixture of emotions. But the past was gone, the past must not be mentioned.

It was all about money and looking forward.

"Well, let's get this system up and running..." Tom took a brief look at the system and found that it was like an ordinary mobile game, or perhaps a bit more rudimentary. Currently only the character, card draw, quest and map screens were available.

Tom clicked first on the character screen and then saw his information.

[Tom Yodel]

[Profession: Hobo (nothing more than a pretty face)]

[Magic Bar: None]

[Theory of knowledge: None]

[Magic items: None]

[Talents: Sorcery: 3 (Intermediate)]

[Potions: 5 (Special Talent)]

[Divination: 0 (No Talent)]

[...]

[Black Magic: 9+ (Azkaban)]

[Magic Stones: 58400]

Tom: "!!!!"

When he looked at his nine Black Magic talent points, he was a little worried: when it came time to choose houses at school, he wouldn't be assigned to Slytherin or sent to Azkaban right off the bat, would he?

But, what could be done about it? could such a talent disappear?

Next, he clicked on the card draw screen.

A window appeared with three wizards in various poses, next to which were four large words, Running for the World, and below them a small line, Permanent Draw open. The Permanent Sweepstakes is a permanent sweepstakes, see details for more information.

On the sweepstakes screen, in addition to the Permanent Sweepstakes, there is also a Novice Sweepstakes, it says [Sweepstakes recommended for beginners], the best thing about this sweepstakes is that you can get two ten-row sweepstakes at 20% off in one day.

Tom clicked on [Details], investigated the draw system and understood what was going on there. Each draw costs one hundred and sixty magic stones, with a guarantee of one four-star card upon making ten draws, and one five-star card upon making ninety draws, after which the cumulative number of draws will reset to zero. As for the content of the four- and five-star cards, it is not mentioned in the [Details].

"Let's try it then..." Tom looked at his reassuring number of magic stones and decided to try his luck with a few dozen rounds.

"My turn, Draw a card!", Tom scratched his hair and messed it up, hitting the ten-draw button for the Rookie Draw.

The next thing he saw was the screen change to ten shooting stars streaking across the sky, nine blue and one purple. As soon as the animation ended, Tom began counting his haul.

"A chocolate frog, a loaf of bread, a bag of Bertie Bott's Grageas of all flavors..."

The twinkle in Tom's eye gradually dimmed.

Is that all of it?

What's all this junk?

Until the four-star item appeared,

Tom was relieved: he really feared that his system was only attracting ingredients....

The four-star item was a scroll with a purple glow. At the same time, a message was added to his magic bar, with a note next to it.

['Lumos' level 0 (1/100) (Good, you've graduated as a magician!)]]

Tom sighed, thinking that at least it could be a light bulb.

Before long, Tom had finished his Novice Draw, and his second row of ten had produced only one scroll, it was the Protego spell.

When the Novice Draw ran out, the Permanent Draw was the natural place to go. The Permanent Draw is where you can draw characters, and when you do, you can add talent points or gain abilities, and Tom was craving the +1 potions talent that Snape offered, or the animagus transformation that Professor McGonagall could offer....

"My turn, draw a card!" Tom pressed the Permanent Draw: The Novice Draw had been so bad, shouldn't he win something in the Permanent Draw? Luck is constant.

...

"Round 79 ..." Tom's eyes went blank, feeling as if he had been drained, but then the draw released a golden light, The golden color meant a five-star card!

Tom felt alive again: after all, the guarantee was ninety draws for a five-star card, and he had only drawn seventy-nine times to get a gold card.

Tom was such an optimistic man. He was looking forward to seeing the characters or skills or alchemy equipment he had drawn, a five-star skill would be much more advanced, wouldn't it?

Among the five-star characters, the one he wanted to get the most was Professor Snape, after all, he could add talent points to Potions, Professor Flivver was also good, Sorcery would increase the learning speed of all subjects, and Professor McGonagall was not out of the question, after all, if he was lucky, he could learn the Animagus Transformation....

If there was one teacher Tom didn't want to get, it was....

"I'm the great astrologer, Trelawney!"

Looking at that elegantly dressed woman in front of him, Tom felt his blood pressure shoot up: what's astrology for?!

No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.

Divination is a subject that, like a Steinway piano, if you weren't born talented, chances are you won't have it for the rest of your life.....

If there is one subject at Hogwarts that requires the most talent, it is Divination. In this subject, if you have no talent, no one can help you.

Professor Trelawney turned into starlight and melted into Tom's body, and at the same time, his Divination bar went from 0 to 1, with a few more level 0 spells added.

Tom sighed, tired and destroyed.

He hit the draw button again, but to his surprise, the animation was back to a golden light!

Another gold! The legendary double-yolked egg.
