Prologue
It didn't take long for him to realise where he was, his rebirth was a gamble, either he ends up in a world of his choice or… he gets send to one randomly with few perks.
He decided with the second option and his perks ended up being three books, he doesn't know what kind of books those are, but he will find out once he is of age capable of reading.
For now he has to survive… as he ended up as Harry 'Bloody' James Potter!
Yes, the one and same, he figured that out quite early, his hearing was not the best as his body was still that of a toddler, but he was able to make out who is who.
His mother being redhead, his father having messy black hair and those… glasses…
As mentioned before it didn't take long for him to realise where he ended up…
Next pretty much obvious, even with his blurry vision was the use of magic, they use those stick everywhere, it's like phones in his previous life, no one goes anywhere without them…
And in this world, these sticks are part of one everyday life, without one it would feel like you are partially crippled.
Even so, he wasn't that happy about this, since he knew what is about to happen in less than a year, he did spend most of time thinking how to save his new parents…
But… in the end, he couldn't do anything, he thought that with magic he will be able to grow faster or with accidental magic, he could warn them or something, but it wasn't so, they only found that their baby is talented, and they found it funny when he is trying so hard to do something...
He could only look at them with annoyance, until that fateful day, he never found Helloween interesting in his last life, and with this event, he decided that he is going to loathe it.
It was early evening when his house doors exploded into bits and man in black robes and cloak entered, James rushed to face him while Lily took him upstairs.
Not long after that he heard a loud noise coming from downstairs, a battle has started but it was not a long one, he knows that old man Voldie can face several wizards at the same time quite easily, and that James while being quite talented in wizard duel was no match for him.
After James was defeated, Snake face went upstairs, were he faced Lily and just like he thought, she sacrificed herself in front of him.
Leaving only him to and Snake Face…
"Ah, young Potter, you have quite a fierce look, pity that one of us has to die! Avada Kedavra!" Voldie pointed his wand at him and shoot a green beam at the boy.
But, instead of killing him the spell simply rebounded and slammed right back at the unsuspecting Dark Lord.
Instead of simply killing him, the Dark Lord's body was incinerated, leaving only robes and his wand behind.
That moment the young Harry Potter felt something happening, he quickly unleashed his magic the only way he knew, by using his raw emotions.
'I AM NOT GOING TO BECOME YOUR SOUL CONTAINER YOU SHITHEAD!' He roared internally, sending a shockwave of magic from his body, but even so he felt a cut in his forehead.
'Damn!!!' He felt a tinge of pain, for a moment he felt light-headed, but he got through it, and then he realised that, that bastard wand is over there on the ground!
'You bastard! Since I lost both of my parents you going to lose two things as well! One is down, next one is going to be your wand!' Harry growled internally he then made his way down from his bed, and went over to the bastard's robes and found a black stick on the ground, he could barely walk or even move, since his body is barely one year old, but he eventually managed to pick his wand, and then used all his strength to try to snap it in half, it didn't work…
But, it doesn't mean he is going to give up, since the simple method didn't work he decided to try different methods, and since his house is a mess, like portion of sealing is missing, and roof tiles are laying all over the place…
He can improvise…
Eventually he was able to break it in half, when he used a tile and a brick which was laying on the ground…
Sometime later he saw a rat sneaking in, and looking for something, Harry narrowed his eyes and kicked the rat away with all strength he had, before returning to his bed to take a nap since his used pretty much all his strength with his self imposed mission in messing with Dark Lord, he was so annoyed that he could not save Potters, maybe it's that stupid prophesy and destiny bullshit, according which some people are destined to live a certain amount of time, he decided to show the middle finger to that once he becomes powerful enough.
After thinking how to mess with destiny and fate, he finally fallen asleep.
But when he woke up next time he realised that he was in god damn basket left in front of a door…
'God damn it Dumbledore!!!' Harry roared internally with pissed of expression which should not be on one-year-old face!
~~~
After that Harry lived with Dursleys, he never saw such… unique family before in his life, the man was like walrus and the woman was giraffe with horse head.
'Is it the fact that in this world wizards are naturally more beautiful?' Harry internally though, but he decided to wait when Hogwarts starts and then he can see the difference.
But soon enough he realised that they barely feed him, and that just pissed him off, pity that they have not realised to who they are messing with…
Each night after that he would go and fetch food himself, this continued until he was old enough to read, or more precisely old enough for him to have proper vision, to his utter enjoyment he did not inherit James pathetic vision...
Once he was alone and none of those 'people' were around he called forth his gifts, and three books manifested in front of him.
Harry sucked cold air when he saw three glowing books appear in front of him, the sheer presence they emit scream 'power'!
His interest went to blue one with black pages, once he touched it a shiver went down through his spine.
When he read the front cover his eyes nearly pooped out from his sockets!
'Supreme Mind Arts By Lady Valeron?' Who the hell is Lady Valeron?' Harry thought for second but he decided that he doesn't care…
He opened the first page and started to read it…
'Mind is like yin, without its yang the body it is worthless, and so is it's yang without its yin… this book will teach you how to master your mind and make it into sharpest tool in your arsenal, and once you do that you will able to conquer other minds as well.' Harry read through the first paragraph and he realised that whatever wrote this is someone related to Taoism…
But as he continued reading he found out that this book includes a meditation method as well as proper breathing teaching and even mantra which allows to fall into zen state in few moments.
'Is this like one of those martial arts books?' Harry was quite giddy with this discovery and continued to read it even with greater fervour.
Soon enough he realised that this book is out of this world, first of all, it's much more than simply method which teaches him the art of Occlumency and Legimency, this was much more than that.
This book split up 'Mind Arts' into stages, from one to ten, once one reaches stage ten, he will be able to achieve perfect recall and Eidetic Memory, but that is just bare-bones, there is mind partition, mind acceleration, and even ability to simply 'cold calculation' where one disables one's emotions and can logically think even in most dire situations.
'Who is this Lady? This book is a literal gold mine!' Harry shook his head and decided to start with the method already, as the more he reads the more he knows that he should start practising this as he won't be able to understand what he is reading!
And to his utter amazement, he reached 'Zen State' in his first try! From there on he started with memory sorting and Mind Library building, as he knows those two are the very foundation of 'Mind Arts'!
~~~
It only took him a few days to sort his previous life memories, Harry was able to build his library and from there out he continued to expand, from library into a palace, at its very heart two large bowls were burning with flames, one being pure red, the other being ghostly blue.
The red one being his life force, the ghostly blue being his willpower or soul force, he was able to manifest it into a 'physical plain', thus allowing 'intentional manipulation' of it, in a sense he can now… train it…
Breathing exercises and meditation is vital to this, as it allows him to 'douse the flames' making them stronger.
He didn't have much time training though, as reading the book was too interesting… but to his disappointment he reached the point that he needs to train to progress further in the books, so he decided to check the other two books…
The best part of these books was that he can manifest them and then dismiss them, which was a godsend as those 'people' nearly walked on him while he was reading…
Anyway, he another book he called forth was pure red cover and extremely white nearly glowing pages.
'Supreme Runemancy by Raynor Valeron…' Is this guy husband of that lady?' Harry thought with a slightly raised eyebrow.
He opened the first page and saw alphabet of letters which look quite familiar to Norse runes…
But then he realised that he can read them quite easily, like he just understand it!
'This book will teach you how to impose your will into the physical world! From enchanting weapons to creating realities to making technomancy! That is the true power of Runemancy!' Harry was awed at what he just read, technomancy as in magic tech?
His eyes nearly glowed from excitement he just found his calling! He did a little bit of programming and tinkered with some machinery in his previous life, but it was nothing more than a hobby, but now…
His attention was 120% in this book, but as he was continued with reading he stumbled on a roadblock…
'To get most from runemancy, one should know that material on which the runes are inscribed is important, for that alchemy is recommended, as no common metal or stone will suffice unless ones is extremely strong with magic or any other similar type of energy.' Harry frowned after reading that, and then he summoned last book.
It was golden with crimson pages, he marvelled the cover of the book for a second, then he opened the first page as there was nothing on the cover.
'Primordial Alchemy by Jian Feng' a massive smirk appeared on Harry's face.
'I guess It was not random! I got a proper set!' He thought to himself.
He then started reading the introduction.
'Alchemy is the supreme art of changing one to another, a true master could build a golden palace from nothing but dirt! Achieve eternal youth and even deny death! This book will teach you how to become a God under the Heaven!' Harry read through the first paragraph and he got pumped, whoever these three authors are, they probably were, or are, extremely powerful beings.
After reading a few pages, Harry found out that both of these arts can, and will reinforce each other nicely.
As he expected he got a 'set' of books, which in some way were selected towards his character or personal interest, because he found all three books to his interest.
While he does like this reality, he is somewhat dissatisfied how whole magical society solely rely on wands to the point that it's like a limb.
'But, even if I want to delve into this I will need to leave these annoying muggles…' Harry thought with an annoyed look.
~~~
For the next few years Harry trained himself in Mind Arts and he has finally reached the level 5 stage.
This means he can finally invade other people minds, and give or manipulate one's memories, this means he can finally leave this place.
So, one morning when he was finally prepared he went over to the kitchen, since he was three years old, the Dursleys didn't make him cook yet, as he remembered that it was around his fourth year that they would start teaching Harry how-to cook, but even so they had their distaste shown every time Harry was around.
And this morning was no different, Harry walked towards his aunt who noticed him, her face morphed into a sneer of sorts, but Harry just smiled at her as they made an eye contact.
That moment his eyes glowed, and he invaded her mind, he quickly sorted through all of her memories and found all the times he was nearly found out, to normal human those moments would look harmless but to the wizard, it would look weird, and to someone like Dumbledore, he would probably think that he was possessed by Voldemort or something similar, so he slightly altered those memories… In fact...
He decided to completely erase himself from these people memories, he wants to see what kind of shit storm he can cause to that bastard who left him here!!!
With a feral grin, he erased everything about himself from his aunt, and then he did the same with his walrus of uncle, he even checked his cousin who was the same age as he, but to his disgust, he was just drooling piglet, and his mind was that of harmless mammal, only thing he found there was food, more food…
With those things set he decided to leave after backing a bag full of food.
His destination... closed junkyard in this area...
~~~
To his utter shock, he found a car junkyard! And it's quite a big one as well, with only one guy working here as caretaker, Harry could only grin from ear to ear.
'This place is perfect!' He thought with glee, as he walked over to the caretaker, some guy in his late forties reading some newspaper, there is a small TV showing football next to him.
"Hello?" Harry asked the caretaker who lifted his head and looked at the boy.
The only thing he remembered was green glowing eyes...
