[Ding!]
[Host has collected a significant number of treasure chests.]
[Treasure chest synthesis feature activated!]
[Ten lower-level treasure chests can now be merged into a higher-level one!]
Back in his dorm, Kyle suddenly heard the familiar system notification in his mind.
"Treasure chest merging, huh? Interesting," Kyle mused.
"System, display my stats!"
[Emotional Treasure Box System]
- Host:Kyle

Kyle had a total of 165 treasure chests, most of them low-level, acquired in just one day. While low-level chests didn't offer much, the merging feature made things different now.
"System, merge the treasure chests!"
[Ding!]
[120 Bronze chests merged into 12 Silver chests. You now have 43 Silver chests.]
[40 Silver chests merged into 4 Gold chests. You now have 10 Gold chests.]
[10 Gold chests merged into 1 Diamond chest. You now have 3 Diamond chests.]
"Three diamond treasure chests!" Kyle's eyes sparkled with excitement.
Based on his self-made ranking system, Kyle divided wizards into five tiers based on treasure chest levels:
-Bronze for junior wizards still in Hogwarts.
- Silver for ordinary adult wizards.
- Gold for elite wizards, like Aurors or Hogwarts professors.
- Diamond for powerful figures like house heads.
- Supreme for legends like Dumbledore, Voldemort, and Grindelwald.
This was just a rough categorization since wizard battles often depended on expertise and other factors, but it gave Kyle a general idea.
Rubbing his hands together, Kyle rushed to the bathroom to splash water on his face, preparing for the moment of truth. After freshening up, he returned to his bed.
"System, open all three Diamond treasure chests!"
[Ding! Congratulations, host, for obtaining the talent: Mastery of Herbology!]
[Ding! Congratulations, host, for obtaining the talent: Mastery of Potions!]
[Ding! Congratulations, host, for obtaining the treasure: Source of Magic!]
Three notifications rang out in quick succession.
- Herbology Mastery: You are a natural expert in herbology, instinctively understanding the properties and growth habits of any plant.
- Potions Mastery: You possess an innate talent for potions, able to master any recipe quickly and improve it proficiently.
Kyle fell into contemplation. "Hmm... it feels like the system is just copy-pasting talents and swapping out the keywords," he thought. But that didn't change the fact that these talents were incredible. Every Potions Master was highly valued in the wizarding world, a prime example being Snape. Even Voldemort had kept Snape in his inner circle despite knowing he might be a traitor.
And a master of herbology was the only real counter to a Potions Master—just as Slytherin students only dared to bad-mouth Hufflepuffs in private but wouldn't dare actually bully them, all because of Professor Sprout. Anyone messing with her students would find their supply of magical plants mysteriously cut off!
With both talents now in his possession, Kyle knew it was only a matter of time before he mastered these fields.
The final reward, however, was even more impressive.
-Source of Magic:Stores up to three times the host's total magic power and can release it when needed. It also increases the host's magic recovery rate by tenfold.
This treasure manifested as a sky-blue gem, which merged into Kyle's forehead. He hurried to the bathroom to check his reflection. Satisfied, he smirked and thought, "From now on, call me... Kyle Tsunade Mephisto!"
This source of magic essentially acted like an advanced energy reserve, similar to a *Baihao* technique. Given his current magical capacity—roughly equivalent to that of an elite wizard—this newfound power would push him to the level of a Hogwarts house head. Combined with his mastery of the three Unforgivable Curses, Kyle felt unstoppable.
Even Dumbledore himself might have trouble standing against him!
Kyle grinned. "I could probably make Dumbledore spit blood!" he thought, brimming with confidence.
Feeling untouchable, Kyle allowed himself a moment of pride.
