Located on the outskirts of Wiltshire, England, the ancient manor of 1987 exudes an atmosphere of gloom and mystery.

Occupying a vast area, it is surrounded by a spell that keeps ordinary people out, for this is the home of Lucius Malfoy, a former Death Eater and one of the most powerful wizards in the land.

Those brave enough might be tempted to venture inside and see if any supernatural events take place within its walls, but the manor is off-limits to non-wizards.

"It's finally over," Draco Malfoy sighed heavily as he closed the thick book on his lap. Titled "Thousand Kinds of Magical Herbs and Mushrooms" by Filida Spor, it had been a challenging read for his young, eight-year-old body.

As he looked at his reflection in the floor-standing mirror in the study, he couldn't help but feel a sense of unreality.

"It's been eight years since I came to this world," he thought to himself, gazing at his platinum hair and small frame.

He had traveled through time, but only managed to save himself as a primary school student, getting hit by a car in the process. He had ended up in Harry Potter's world, replacing the character of Draco Malfoy in the story.

"Unconsciously, it's been eight years since I came to this world." Draco looked at the floor-standing mirror in the study, looking at his platinum hair and small body, still feeling an unreal feeling.

I actually traversed, but only saved a primary school student that year, so I traversed it after being hit by a car. It was Harry Potter's world that was traversed, and the person who replaced the existence was still one of the main supporting characters, Malfoy.

As a fan of both novels and movies, I was very familiar with the plot of the original work and felt sorry for Draco Malfoy.

In the story, he came from a good family and was good-looking, but he ended up doing low-level villainous tasks and opposing Harry Potter, often using underhanded tricks.

However, after crossing over into a new world, I don't want to follow the original plot and just want to live on the original track. Now that I have the chance to change the course of history, I don't want to waste such a good opportunity.

"It looks like the only benefit of crossing over is this," Draco said as he looked at the piles of books in the study, a satisfied smile on his face.

"Perfect memory and improving comprehension, what a great ability this is," he thought to himself. If he wants to change his life trajectory, having strength is the most important thing.

If he has the same strength as Voldemort and doesn't do illegal things, combined with his inherited good looks and family background, he would be a surefire success in life.

As an adult in terms of soul, Draco knows that having a strong body is important.

However, he also understands that "knowledge is power," and he knows that a solid theoretical foundation is necessary for success in magic.

Without this foundation, all magic is just a pipe dream. If Tom Riddle hadn't been brought to Hogwarts by Dumbledore, he would have been at most a mediocre wizard.

Recognizing this, Draco makes sure to use his free time to study and learn as much as he can, even though he is not yet able to effectively control his magic casting due to his age.

He focuses on learning basic magic knowledge, herbalism, standard spells, and other fundamental subjects.

"In my last life, I wasn't a school bully, but it looks like I would have become one in this life if I hadn't crossed over," Draco thought to himself as he worked towards his goals.

He was surprised to find that his memory and comprehension abilities were higher than they had been in his previous life, which he attributed to the crossing.

Suddenly, there was a knock at the door. "Young Master, Master wants you to come with him," a housekeeper's voice called from outside the door.

"Okay, I understand." After returning the book, Draco walked to his father's study.

"Father, do you have any tasks for me?" Even though Draco knew the truth about their relationship, he still chose to act as a loyal son.

He couldn't believe that his father, who is a villain in the original story, could be so kind to his family.

'I was just thinking about the opportunity to teach him how to be a good follower. It's not easy to be part of Voldemort's team. In the original story, if Narcissa had saved Harry's life, then even if the Dark Lord lost, this family might still have ended up in Azkaban. That's not what I want for my family.' As Draco looked at Lucius, his thoughts couldn't help but wander.

"How are your studies going?" Lucius stood by the window, the sunlight outside casting a pale glow on his pointed face, making it look even more gloomy.

Despite his stern appearance, his voice held genuine concern.

Unlike other children of the same age, Draco has been unusually quiet and well-behaved since infancy.

He hardly ever cries or makes noise, and as he got older, he rarely spoke.

Some of the servants who worked in the Draco household began to spread rumors that the young master was dumb and unable to speak, which made Lucius, who was proud of his pureblood heritage and family, angry and he punished those servants.

However, he couldn't help but wonder if there was something wrong with his own child, as it seemed that Draco was not really a "dumb cannon" as the servants had claimed.

As it turned out, when Lucius began to personally teach Draco, he discovered that his child was a genuine genius.

In addition to excelling in everyday behaviors, Draco showed a strong interest in magic and was able to learn and control it quickly.

Lucius even gave Draco his own magic wand and taught him a simple spell, and to his surprise, Draco was able to cast it successfully on the first try.

This early silence turned out to be a gift, not a sign of being a "dumb cannon."

Every parent wants their child to succeed and be successful, and Lucius was no different.

In addition, Draco's passion for magic was even stronger than Lucius's own, and so Lucius had extremely high expectations for Draco.

"Everything is going well, Father. I believe my knowledge and skills are at the level of a third-grade student," Draco replied.

"Excellent, you are worthy of being the heir to the Malfoy family." Lucius was very satisfied and a smile appeared on his pale face.

"Tomorrow, the Parkinson family will be visiting us as guests. I heard that there is a girl your age. Are you interested?" Lucius asked Draco playfully.

Perhaps the impressive talent displayed by Draco had even softened Lucius's normally gloomy demeanor.

The tradition of intermarriage between pure-blood wizards and pure-bloods within the Malfoy family also suggests that Lucius's remark was not entirely a joke.

"You are joking, Father." Draco responded gently, but his heart began to race at the thought of meeting Pansy Parkinson.

'How should I get along with her?'
