I'm in a crossover anime world, and I've been transported to Hogwarts twice.

He stood before the enormous floor-to-ceiling window, the dazzling lights of Academy City outside offering him no solace whatsoever; instead, they resembled the final, illusory glory of a dream before its shattering.

It must be said that the dream was like adding immense force to an already taut bowstring.

The sense of crisis that had never truly eased deep within Genichi Hanyu's heart was amplified and distorted at this moment, transforming into an almost tangible, chilling sense of urgency.

For the first time, he felt so clearly how fragile everything he had carefully constructed—power, influence, future, even the women he cherished—was in the face of some unknown, unimaginable destructive force, like a sandcastle against a tsunami.

At the same time, a cold, almost certain guess coiled around his mind like a venomous snake.

Hermione Granger. The girl with memories of the future who is willing to do anything to change her destiny.

The reason she was reborn, the fear and despair buried deep in her eyes, was it because of the ultimate destruction he saw in his dream?

If that future is predetermined, then is Hermione's struggle all in vain?

But can Genichi Hanyu truly rewrite that desperate script?

"No! Absolutely not!"

A voice, almost a growl, exploded in Genichi Hanyu's mind.

He will never allow it!

We must never allow such a future to come!

I will never allow everything I cherish to vanish before my eyes!

strength!

He needs more power!

Powerful enough to tear apart the destructive shadow that looms over the heavens!

Power enough to protect everything he possesses!

The light in Genichiro Hanyu's eyes flickered uncertainly, like thunder brewing deep in the clouds before a storm.

It was no longer an ambition to conquer, but a desperate, mad gamble driven by being pushed to the edge of a cliff.

He turned abruptly, his gaze like a tangible blade, piercing towards Gaia, who was still suspended to the side, her heavy aftershocks still lingering.

"Gaia".

His voice was deep and hoarse, carrying an unquestionable command.

"Tell me, what power could possibly make me stronger in a short time, a leap in strength? Or what world could possibly contain the possibility of allowing me to break through my current limits and even reach higher dimensions? I need coordinates, right now!"

Gaia's information flow fluctuated slightly, and her ethereal voice carried a clear dissuasion: "You are too impatient. With our current rate of development, integrating the resources of the world we have already controlled, analyzing the deep rules, and steadily improving your status, as long as we proceed step by step, time is on our side. The bond between our powers will eventually rise with the expansion of Chaldea and the deepening of your understanding of the multiverse, becoming incredibly powerful. There is absolutely no need for you to take such a risk."

"too slow!"

Genichi Hanyu abruptly interrupted Gaia, his voice rising sharply with an almost out-of-control agitation.

"Gaia, I can't wait any longer! Do you think I still have time to wait patiently?!"

He pointed to his forehead, as if the mark of that nightmare was still burning: "That dream was like a Damocles' sword hanging over everyone's head. Tell me, if I really followed the steps, developed step by step like the me in the dream, and became stronger step by step, do you think that destructive future would be changed because of it? Would it not come to pass?!"

Genichi Hanyu's gaze was as sharp as a hawk's, fixed on Gaia, each word striking the cold reality like a heavy hammer blow:

"Quite the opposite! Gaia!"

"If I really choose to follow the established path, there will only be one outcome, which is exactly the same as what I saw in my dream. All of us, including you, will be reduced to dust without any resistance in that incomprehensible catastrophe. So-called steady development is nothing but a slow poison of suicide in the face of that level of destruction!"

"..."

Gaia fell silent.

Genichi Hanyu's words, like cold chains of logic, completely shattered her prudent advice.

The nightmare was too real, too desperate. More importantly, it touched upon the uniqueness and unknown nature of Genichi Hanyu's existence, and even she, as the world consciousness, could not fully analyze its origin and possibilities.

Genichi Hanyu's fears were not unfounded.

That primal shadow of destruction, like a sharp blade hanging over the multiverse, sent a chill through her like never before.

Silence spread through the oppressive air. Genichi Hanyu didn't urge him on, but silently exerted pressure with his eyes burning with a mad flame.

Finally, Gaia's ethereal voice rang out again, carrying a heavy sigh and a resolute air of being persuaded: "I understand, since your mind is made up."

Her information flow core suddenly lit up, and countless streams of light poured down like a waterfall, weaving together in front of the two of them into a vast cosmic landscape that was far more complex, deeper, and filled with more unknowns and dangerous signs than the star map they usually displayed.

Some of these areas shimmered with an extremely dangerous blood-red light, and the spatial structure exhibited bizarre distortions and cracks.

"Help me find a world that's powerful enough!"

Genichi Hanyu's voice was resolute, carrying a do-or-die determination.

"A world that can squeeze out all my potential, and might even crush me. I want to sneak into it, bypass the world's consciousness and directly infiltrate its core. I want to go there to find, plunder, and devour all the power that can make me stronger, no matter the cost!"

"Smuggling."

Gaia's voice was more solemn than ever before.

"You need to understand that the worlds that can grant you extraordinary power in a short period of time have rules and danger levels that far exceed any of the ones you have conquered before. If you force your way in, your very existence will become a huge disturbance, attracting unpredictable terror. You may encounter enemies far beyond your imagination, and you may very well die because of it. Don't you care about such an ending?"

Gaia's warning was like a cold death sentence, every word striking at the very bottom of reason.

Genichi Hanyu listened quietly, his face showing no fear, only a calmness akin to martyrdom.

He slowly and with utmost determination shook his head.

"die?"

A crazy yet resolute smile curved his lips, and his eyes were as sharp as knives.

"Compared to sitting and waiting to die, watching that nightmare become reality, watching everything turn to nothing, I'd rather risk my life and fight for it. Even if there's only a one in ten thousand chance, I'll seize it. Dying on the road to becoming stronger is better than waiting in despair and being crushed into dust by that unknown destruction!"

He looked at Gaia's rapidly fluctuating information flow, his voice lowering, yet carrying a power that pierced the soul: "And Gaia, I'm doing this not only for myself, but also for Yukino, Mahiru, Erina, and the others, and for you as well!"

"We are already two sides of the same coin, sharing both glory and ruin. If I fall, and you are swallowed by that fundamental destruction, then everything I have protected will also cease to exist. So this is not just my personal adventure, but our shared do-or-die battle!"

Gaia froze completely.

Genichi Hanyu's words pierced her very core instinct as the embodiment of world consciousness.

Yes, she and Genichi Hanyu were already deeply intertwined; his fate was her fate.

His reckless adventure at this moment is, in a way, also a way to give her a chance to survive.

"madman."

Gaia's voice carried a hint of helplessness, a hint of complexity, and even a barely perceptible touch of emotion.

She looked into Genichi Hanyu's eyes, which burned with madness and a will to protect, and finally asked again, "Are you really sure?"

"Of course, Sichuan!"

239 Gaia, thank you so much!

He didn't turn around, not even for a moment.

His gaze was calm as still water, but deep within it surged a resolve and heaviness that only he himself knew.

bid farewell?

That was a luxury, but also a cruel weakness.

He knew those girls all too well.

Once they meet, even if it's just a fleeting glance, that invisible bond will transform into the strongest thread, binding his desperate steps.

He was afraid of seeing the incomprehension in their eyes, and even more afraid that the deep-seated worry would shake his will, which he had to be as hard as steel at this moment.

So he chose the coldest, yet perhaps the gentlest, way—to leave without saying goodbye.

There was no earth-shattering light, no deafening roar that tore through space. There was only a terrifying feeling, as if the entire universe had been forcibly twisted, folded, and then brutally pierced through!

Yu "187" Sheng Xianyi felt like a stone thrown into the center of a supernova storm. The endless tearing force, crushing pressure, and chaotic spacetime turbulence that was enough to destroy any rationality instantly swallowed him up!

Gaia's shield groaned under the strain, his proud physique seemed to be crushed inch by inch, and his soul screamed in this violent transdimensional crossing!

This is illegal immigration!

This is the price of forcibly intruding into another world!

After an unknown period of time, the torment that was enough to break even the gods suddenly disappeared.

Instead, a down-to-earth approach has taken its place.

A sense of heaviness?

And an omnipresent, suffocating pressure!

Genichi Hanyu suddenly opened his eyes, his pupils contracting sharply!

The anticipated chaotic, fragmented, and distorted scene did not appear.

The moment he landed, he was greeted by a breathtaking panorama. Words could not describe its magnificent and solemn grandeur!

The magnificent, colossal pillars that seemed to support the heavens radiated a soft, ancient glow. The ground was paved with jade that flowed with starlight, and the air was filled with spiritual particles so dense they were almost tangible. Every breath felt like consuming the purest source of energy.

Above the dome, there is not the sky above the moon and ripples of the mortal realm, but a slowly rotating nebula landscape containing endless mysteries.

This is the abode of God! It is the core of the law!

However, this sacredness and tranquility were instantly shattered the moment Genichi Hanyu appeared by a terrifying will that was icy cold and seemed to freeze the soul!

"what?"

A clear, slightly languid and curious female voice, yet imbued with supreme majesty, resounded in this sacred hall.

Genichi Hanyu stiffly turned his gaze, his heart feeling as if it were being gripped tightly by an invisible giant hand!

Right in front of him, less than ten steps away, sat a young girl on a throne made of pure light that floated in the void.

She looked no more than thirteen or fourteen years old, wearing a white pleated skirt in the style of ancient Greece, barefoot, with long purple hair hanging down like moonlight, and her face was as exquisite as the most perfect work of art, carrying a sense of innocent naivety.

However, in her eyes, which were like the deepest amethyst, flowed a vast vision of the birth and death of the universe and the passage of time!

That seemingly petite body exuded such a powerful aura that it made Genichi Hanyu feel as insignificant as a speck of dust in the entire universe!

Pandora, or rather, the world's will appearing in the form of Pandora!

The core of the Godslayer world!

The mother who presides over the birth ritual of the god-slayer!

One of the oldest, most mysterious, and most powerful beings in the world!

She was resting her chin on her hand, her small bare feet dangling gently in the air, observing with great interest the uninvited guest who had suddenly barged into her back garden.

That look in his eyes was like that of a mischievous child who had discovered a strange beetle he had never seen before that had wandered into a glass jar.

Genichi Hanyu's muscles tensed to their limit instantly, and his internal power surged wildly, only to find, to his dismay, that in this space, under the gaze of this being, his power was like a frozen stream, unable to even stir up a ripple!

The invisible shackles of the laws had already bound him firmly, and he couldn't even move a finger!

"I really will tie it!"

A thousand alpacas galloped through Genichi Hanyu's mind in an instant. Gaia, that jerk!

What happened to the illegal immigration?

This is like being parachuted directly into the final boss's lair!

We still got caught red-handed!

Pandora seemed to sense the intense turmoil within Genichi Hanyu's heart; a naive yet chilling smile slowly curved her small lips upwards.

"Oh my, what a rare guest!"

Her voice was clear and melodious, like a mountain stream.

"A little guy with a strong otherworldly stench actually managed to bypass the barrier of the world and fall right in front of me? This surprise is quite unexpected."

She tilted her head, her silver hair flowing down, her amethyst-like eyes slightly narrowed, her smile still sweet, but a tangible, icy killing intent, like billions of invisible ice needles, instantly pierced every inch of Genichi Hanyu's skin and sank into the depths of his soul!

"Then, you insolent trespasser, give me one reason not to immediately crush you into cosmic dust?"

Genichi Hanyu felt as if his thoughts were being frozen by that terrifying killing intent.

He could clearly sense that Pandora wasn't joking. In her eyes, he, an illegal immigrant, was like a vile ant that had intruded into a temple, something she could easily crush.

The sharp killing intent hidden beneath that smile was genuine!

She didn't act immediately only out of a sense of amusement, or perhaps a playful, cat-and-mouse game.
