With the evening drawing in, Harry knew the time had come to focus on the tasks ahead. The inheritance, the mysterious adversary, and his burgeoning place in the wizarding world all beckoned. Yet, amidst these considerations, he now carried the warmth of his mother's words, a guiding light in the uncertain path he was about to tread.

"Let's prepare for tomorrow, Nigel," Harry said resolutely, "There's much to be done, and I have a feeling we're just at the beginning of this journey."

Nigel, back to his usual self, responded with a hint of his characteristic dry humor. "Indeed, Master Harry. The road ahead is long, but fear not. We shall navigate it with the wit and wisdom befitting a wizard of your potential. And perhaps a bit of mischief for good measure."

Harry couldn't help but smile, the weight of the day's revelations lightened by Nigel's words. He was ready for whatever lay ahead, armed with his mother's love, Nigel's guidance, and a newfound sense of identity.

The next day, Harry awoke early, the events of the previous day still fresh in his mind. He quietly made his way downstairs to prepare breakfast before Aunt Petunia stirred. While he cooked, his thoughts were focused on the tasks ahead. Harry was determined to complete several quests related to the first-year curriculum of Hogwarts before his acceptance letter arrived. After that, he planned to buy his wand and begin practicing officially.

As he flipped the last of the pancakes, Harry turned his attention to potion crafting, a skill he was eager to develop. "Nigel," he began, "What is this Technology System Virtual Potion Crafting Room I unlocked earlier?"

Nigel's voice, clear and distinct in Harry's mind, responded, "Ah, the Virtual Potion Crafting Room, a marvel of the Technology System. It's a simulated environment where you can practice potion-making without the risk of blowing up your aunt's kitchen."

Harry, intrigued, asked for more details. "How does it work?"

Nigel elaborated, "Imagine a virtual space where you can experiment with various potion ingredients and brewing techniques. The room simulates real-world conditions, providing a safe and controlled environment for learning and experimentation."

"Does it feel real?" Harry asked, curious about the experience.

"It's quite lifelike, Master Harry. You'll see, smell, and even feel the ingredients and potions as if they were physically present. It's an excellent way to hone your skills without the constraints of the physical world."

Harry's excitement grew. "And the potions I make there, are they just virtual, or can I use them somehow?"

Nigel replied, "The potions are simulations, but the knowledge and experience you gain are very real. You'll understand the properties of ingredients, the nuances of brewing, and the effects of various potions. It's an invaluable tool for a budding potioneer."

Harry nodded, absorbing this information. "So, I can practice as much as I want without worrying about running out of ingredients or making a mess?"

"Exactly," Nigel confirmed. "The room provides an endless supply of virtual ingredients and equipment. You can brew to your heart's content."

Nigel then added, "There is an Advanced Feature that you can use in the Virtual Potion Crafting Room, Master Harry. It's called Mastery-Based Potion Creation, and it's quite the ingenious addition to your magical repertoire."

Harry, intrigued, prompted Nigel for more details. "Mastery-Based Potion Creation? What's that about?"

Nigel began to explain. "Well, Master Harry, as you might surmise from the name, this feature becomes active once you've demonstrated a high level of proficiency in potion-making. It's like a graduation from virtual brewing to actual potion creation."

Harry was curious about the specifics. "How does it work exactly?"

Nigel then explained, "The Mastery-Based Potion Creation feature within the Virtual Potion Crafting Room is a bit like having your own personal potion master at your disposal. It's designed to track your progress as you learn and practice various potion recipes in the virtual environment. Think of it as a virtual potion apprenticeship, if you will."

Harry's interest was piqued as he listened to Nigel's description. "So how does it assess my proficiency in potion-making?"

"Well, the system has an algorithm that continuously evaluates your performance," Nigel began. "Every time you brew a potion in the virtual room, it analyzes your technique, the precision of your ingredient measurements, the timing of each step, and the overall quality of the final product. It's rather like having an invisible potions professor overseeing your work."

Harry was fascinated. "And once I reach a certain level of mastery, what happens then?"

Nigel's voice carried a hint of pride. "Once you've demonstrated a high level of skill – specifically, when your mastery level for a particular potion recipe surpasses 80% – the room unlocks its advanced feature. This allows you to create real potions using the knowledge and techniques you've honed virtually."

"But how can a virtual room create real potions?" Harry asked, his curiosity mounting.

"Ahh, that's where the magic truly happens," Nigel said, his tone imbued with a sense of wonder. "You see, once you've provided the room with the necessary real-world ingredients for a potion you've mastered virtually, the system takes over. It replicates your virtual brewing process in the physical world, using the ingredients you've supplied. The result is a potion crafted with the same level of care and precision as your virtual attempts."

Harry marveled at the concept. "So, I can practice a potion in the virtual room, and once I'm good enough, the room can actually make the potion for me in the real world?"

"Exactly, Master Harry," Nigel confirmed. "It's a seamless transition from virtual practice to tangible results. The system ensures that the quality of the potion is consistent with your virtual brewing abilities. You could say it's a bit like having your cake and eating it too – only in this case, it's potions, not cake."

Harry chuckled at Nigel's analogy. "That's incredible. It means I can perfect my skills without wasting resources or dealing with the consequences of a botched potion."

"Indeed," Nigel replied. "And it's not just about saving resources or avoiding mishaps. This feature allows you to experiment and innovate. You can try different variations of a potion in the virtual room, fine-tune the recipe, and then produce it in reality once you're satisfied with the outcome."

Harry nodded, absorbing the information. "This will be a game-changer for my potion-making. I can't wait to start using it."

"As always, Master Harry, I am here to guide and assist you in your magical endeavors," Nigel said. "Whether it's mastering the art of potion-making or navigating the complexities of the wizarding world, you can count on my support. And, of course, a healthy dose of sarcasm and dry humor to keep things interesting."

Harry smiled, grateful for Nigel's presence in his life. The AI's wit, intelligence, and guidance had become an integral part of his journey, offering not just practical assistance but also a sense of companionship.

With a renewed sense of excitement and determination, Harry finished setting breakfast and went to wake up his Aunt. Petunia, still sullen from yesterday's revelations, moved like a specter through the house. The realization that Lily had still cared for her, wanted to reconnect, and never thought her inferior had carved a deep scar in her heart. For years, she had harbored the belief that Lily had despised her. Now, reflecting on how she had treated Harry, a wave of regret washed over her. She wanted to cry, to release the pent-up emotions, but the sight of Harry's caring and sweet demeanor held her back. In her heart, she knew there was still time for redemption.

As they sat down for breakfast, an unusual silence hung in the air, broken only by the clinking of cutlery and the occasional sipping of tea. The atmosphere was markedly different from the usual tense and silent mornings. Petunia, lost in her thoughts, barely touched her food, while Harry ate quietly, respecting her need for space. Petunia, her gaze lingering on Harry, finally broke the silence. "Harry, what are your plans for the day?" she asked, her voice softer than usual.

Harry, surprised by her interest, replied, "I thought I'd spend some time studying, Aunt Petunia. I have a lot to learn about potions."

Petunia nodded, a faint glimmer of curiosity in her eyes. "Potions? That's part of your... magic school?"

"Yes, it's a crucial subject," Harry answered, keeping his tone gentle. "I want to learn as much as I can."

"That sounds... complicated," Petunia said, her voice laced with a mix of bewilderment and intrigue.

"It is, but I'm getting the hang of it," Harry assured her, sensing her attempt to understand his world.

After breakfast, as Harry was about to clear the table and do the dishes, Petunia, to his absolute shock, said, "Go on, Harry. I will finish up here."
