Somewhere, in the middle of a forest, sat a young boy of around 10 years of age. He had bright red hair and clear blue eyes, which were focused on the task in front of him.
The sound of the wind brushing against the leaves was the only thing against complete silence.
The boy stared intensely at the index finger of his left hand. There a small flame burned like a candle. However, the boy didn't react at all, instead, he raised his other hand slowly. He pinched the air with his index finger and his thumb.
From between the two fingers, a clear and thin stream of water fell on top of the burning flame. Without much resistance, the flame died out.
The boy remained impassive, resting both his arms on his legs.
He then reached to his right, where a small notebook was. The boy opened the book and searched for a certain page. The contents were
29/8/1991, 2 days before Hogwarts
The boy stared at the date for some time before adding the rest with a feather that was bound to the book by a very thin string.
The boy continued to write:
Dual Casting: It's possible, but the spells that can be used have to be very compatible with one another. For example, two spells that are based on the intention to conjure something out of thin air, like incendio and aguamenti.
Mind Arts: No progress. Lack of studying resources to completely understand the field.
Hogwarts Entrance: No news yet.

Daily Thoughts: It's been exactly 10 years ever since I was reincarnated into the Harry Potter world, since I can only remember after my 1-year anniversary. Which means that I am now 11 years old. For someone who reincarnated into this world, it would be great news, after all, it's at this age one can enter Hogwarts. However, for some reason my letter never came, I am still unsure of the reason why. After all, I have shown signs of being a wizard and can perform magic better than most my age. I also know for a fact that I am in Britain, so there is no reason for me to not receive a letter of admission, right?
The boy closed the book, seemingly angry. He, in the end, did not lash out, instead letting out a sigh.
Just like he wrote, he had been reincarnated, or maybe everyone does? But he remembered his last life, before acquiring his new identity.
Theodore Ellfire
That was his name now. He lived with his grandfather ever since he was one, and also as far as he can remember. All he knew about his parents was that his father loved adventures, and in his last one he got someone pregnant, someone he shouldn't have. The cost? His life.
Weirdly, they still decided that I would be born but did not raise me, throwing me to the care of my grandfather from my father's side.
It took him a while, but in time he finally figured out that he was in the Harry Potter world. Naturally, he was euphoric at the time, after all, the book series had a great weight on his past life.
In his past life, he was struck with numerous misfortunes from a young age. At the age of 5, he became mute, and not long after, at the age of 8, he went blind.
Normally, that would be bad enough, but it was not over. When he reached 10 years of age, he stopped being able to move his body from the neck down.
From there, all of his family left him, and the only person who cared about him was the nurse who was responsible for him. Curious about the work of J.K. Rowling, she decided it would be a great idea to read me the books, making use of the only sense that he had, hearing.
He was . . . Happy, regardless of everything, thanks to her and the books. So when she died, ... he died too.
14 years old he was.
That was why he loved this world so much. However, this world was not only flowers and rainbows, and I just so happen to be the same age as the protagonist. Just as he hits 17, an all-out war will start, and the final battle will be fought in the school that he wants to study in.
Should he stop the war from happening? No. If I try to do something that goes against the plot, only God knows what butterfly effect will occur.
So, he started planning everything. In the first year, he would not come close to the third floor. In the second, he would always walk with a mirror. As for the third, he would not wander out of the castle during full moon nights. The rest of the years he just had to survive the Dark Lord's constant attempts to take Harry's life.
After that, he would fully utilize the war to boost his own business and gain a LOT of money to live peacefully.
So he prepared. He trained his physical body as soon as he deemed it safe to work out without putting his health at risk.
And when he had his first case of accidental magic, a funny occasion where he spat fire with a sneeze, he started studying magic on his own.
That's when he figured out that, like a lot of other transmigrator protagonists, he had a cheat-like ability.
The ability to perceive a spell's structure with his own eyes.
With a lot of practice and experimentation, this ability allowed him to learn spells rather easily but also perform magic without a wand.
Even so, no matter how talented he was or how overpowered his ability was, nothing mattered if he did not live the story with his own eyes, even if he was not going to intervene.
That's why the absence of Hogwarts' letter was a concerning matter, especially considering the fact that the school year started in a couple of days.
Theo had already accepted the fact that, for some reason, he was not going to Hogwarts. That left him feeling rather resentful.
'Even if Dumbledore himself comes to apologize, I will not accept it. Just accept it, Hogwarts has lost a really talented student'
At this time, an old man approached Theo, who was coming back home. The man was tall and quite thin, with silver hair and a beard that reached his waist. He also had a very long and crooked nose that seemed to have broken more than once. Wait, isn't this description quite familiar?
"Hello, if I'm not wrong, the Ellfire family should live nearby?"
