    "You did a great job, you were very brave and a true warrior!"

    After explaining the reason clearly, Joe naturally received praise from all the wizards.

    If it were not for his bravery, quick wit, and good magical prowess, Harry might have been killed and Voldemort's resurrection might have gone unnoticed.

    As for why Voldemort was brought in without any resistance by George?

    It is widely believed that Voldemort, having been resurrected through dark magic, had not yet fully adapted his body or regained his full strength.

    After understanding the situation from George and Harry's side, the Aurors immediately transported to the cemetery using the Floo Network.

    Alas, those Death Eaters that Voldemort had summoned had long since fled, leaving only that cauldron of his resurrection potion behind.

    These events - Voldemort's resurrection, his subsequent death, the survival of Dobby, and the acquittal of Sirius Black - spread throughout the wizarding world of Britain in the following days.

    Causing great uproar.

    George paid no heed to these matters; for the past few days, he had been immersed in the library, flipping through books on magical history, not spellbooks.

    The magical spellbooks of Flamel's Academy and Hogwarts are essentially the same, with only minor differences in names and effects.

    So he didn't need to spend extra time studying; he knew all of it.

    He was mainly working on mastering the magical history books, hoping to find some useful clues within them.

    "Modern Magic History," "21st Century Wizard Travel Guides to Various Countries," and "Modern High Technology Threats to Wizards."

    A week later, George sat in the library, putting down the magical book and muttering to himself:

    "It's indeed different."

    After a week of studying in the library, he finally had a better understanding of this new world.

    Compared to the Harry Potter world, where magical departments exist in every country and supernatural powers are all held by wizards, with no other schools of thought, this world is much more complex.

    Besides the fact that most European countries are indeed wizarding and use magic, the power systems in other continents vary greatly.

    In the Americas, most are super-powered individuals and experimentally modified beings, as well as some unique mutants.

    Asia is even more complex. In the land of Nippon, there are ninjas, and in China, there are Qi Refiners. The details weren't elaborated on; it was just a general introduction.

    Whatever the world may have, whether it be magical beings, super-powered individuals, experimentally modified bodies, or Qi Refiners, they all have a unified name: "Eccentrics".

    That's the current situation. There might be more powerful beings such as gods or immortals, and the records in the magical books are vague and inconclusive.

    "Maybe we should go back to China first."

    After careful consideration for a moment, George had some thoughts in mind.

    There's no sense staying at Flamel's Academy; his first clone had already graduated from Hogwarts early, and staying here won't bring any new gains.

    His current identity is that of a Chinese national, so returning home is normal. It might be interesting to see the so-called Qi Refiners and perhaps gain some valuable insights.

    Speaking of Daoism, he knows it well, having mastered most of the Li family's Daoist techniques. The only difference he can't seem to find is with this world's Qi Refiners.

    The next day, the school was on break, and George took a Florean Fortescue Express back to his home in London.

    Before he had a chance to bring up the topic of returning to China, his father brought it up to him first.

    "Big Treasure, I think you shouldn't go to that Flamel's Academy. It's too dangerous. I should have never let you study magic there in the first place."

    So, I've already talked to your mother. The situation overseas is unstable, so you should transfer back to school in China."

    Back when the professor from Flamel's Academy came to their home, his father had already been reluctant to have his son learn magic.

    Firstly, it can't make one immortal, and secondly, even if one learns it, they cannot use it in front of ordinary people. What's the point?

    It would be better to study hard, get into a university like Cambridge or Harvard, and then inherit his family's company and business well in the future.

    If it weren't for his son pestering him to go and the professor saying that if the child didn't study magic, the magic within him might not be controllable, posing a danger to his life, he wouldn't have agreed.

    Nowadays, since he has already learned to control his magic, coupled with the fact that the British wizarding world is clearly in turmoil, dropping out and becoming an ordinary wealthy second-generation is the right thing to do.

    "That sounds good."

    George smiled and nodded, leaving Jin Qinguo completely stunned.

    He didn't expect his son to agree so easily. He had actually brought up the topic several times before, but his son had always stubbornly refused.

    "You"

    "Father, I was also scared this time; I almost died."

    "I have thought about it for a long time, and you are right; it is safer to be an ordinary person back in China."

    George followed the conversation and smoothly voiced his prepared lines.

    Jin Qinguo burst into laughter upon hearing this.

    "Alright, alright, you're quite right. Pack your things and set off tomorrow. I'll finish up the next few months here and gradually shift the business back to China for future development."

    "No, I didn't notice. That's fine."

    As he watched Jin Qinguo make a phone call to contact the mother of this body, George nodded to himself silently.

    During his conversation with Jin Qinguo just now, he had actually been using his mental abilities to observe Jin Qinguo's thoughts.

    His goal was to ensure that Jin Qinguo, this biological father, wouldn't notice anything amiss and become suspicious.

    He has the memories of Jin Baobao, but he is not Jin Baobao himself. Some things might not be noticeable to an outsider, but they might be to someone familiar with him.

    Fortunately, it seems Jin Qinguo has no suspicions of him.

    Think about it, it's normal.

    Although he was assigned to Jin Qinguo, he spent most of his time studying at Flamel's Academy. He only went back home twice a year, sometimes even once.

    Jin Qinguo is busy with his company's matters. Even if he goes back home, he wouldn't be seeing each other every day, so it couldn't be said that they were very familiar or well-acquainted.

    He is still in his formative years, and it's normal for his personality to change.

    A normal person wouldn't suspect their child's soul being switched just because they experience some changes during their growth period.

    It will be even less of a concern after he returns to China.

    His mother and sister, who were even less familiar with him than Jin Qinguo, hadn't seen him since two years ago. His mother had brought his sister to London for a tourist visit and spent some time with him during their stay.

    Both parents are career-oriented and most of their energy is focused on their careers. Their children are often left in the care of nannies.

    It's only in the past two years, as he is getting older and almost fifty, that he has started to pay more attention to family and children.

    Even if Jin Qinguo has any doubts, it's not a big deal. He can simply modify Jin Qinguo's memories.

    For all the newly emerged clones, as long as they have family and friends, he will take extra care of them, as a sort of compensation for obtaining their bodies.

    But the premise is that they cannot pose a threat to himself.

    This had been clear in his mind ever since he had his first clone.

    The previous clones basically had no such concerns, especially the last one from the Li family, where he was the elder ancestor, making things much simpler to handle.
