"Aunt May, the letter has arrived after all."
After her words, Aunt just flew into the kitchen and locked the door at an impossible speed for her!
"Aurora! Why are you yelling, and what if someone hears you?" she began threateningly.
When Aunt May calmed down a bit, she went to the window to let the owl in and pick up the letter. But she couldn't pick up the letter right away, because the owl had a temper, and specifically, she was hungry!
After feeding the owl, she still took the letter, after which she handed it to me with the words:
"Read it, and then we'll tell you everything!"

In principle, the letter is no different from what I once found on the Internet! And now I wonder what Aunt May and Aurora will say!
"Aunt, tell me, how do you know about Hogwarts?"
"Daniel, actually, the boarding school where your sister studies is Hogwarts, but she will tell you about it later!" my aunt answered my question.
Well, actually, I could probably have guessed it myself! After all, I started suspecting that this was Rowling's world quite a long time ago. And considering that the only boarding school in the UK in this world is Hogwarts, it was pretty easy to guess. Oh well.
"Honestly, we suspected this, since you've always been a bit out of this world. But we thought it was just our imagination, because you didn't even show those miracles and magical childhood outbursts like Aurora!"
But she's right, besides my training, and my unusual appearance, And also the strong love of animals for me! Otherwise, I was almost like everyone else. There were no magical emissions either, and there were no other miracles in principle. Okay, now I need to pretend to be surprised and ask a couple of leading questions.
"Aunt, what is magic and what kind of emissions" I tried to make my speech and face as interested and naive as possible, but something tells me that nothing happened.
"Well, magic is a miracle, it's all that they describe in books! In general, it's great!" Aurora exclaimed, interrupting her aunt, who had just opened her mouth to say something.
"Aurora!" She looked at her menacingly "Don't interrupt! Well, in simple terms, your sister said it right. A magical outburst is an involuntary manifestation of a child's elemental magic, most often before the age of eleven, and it is mainly accompanied by vivid emotions. This was explained to me by the deputy director when she came to pick up Aurora for shopping."
"Ah, I get it," I said softly, trying to make my voice more confused. "But I've been doing all sorts of weird things for as long as I can remember. But because of the fear of being rejected by you, I thought you would be afraid of me..."
It was the purest truth, I was afraid... I was afraid of being rejected by the people I cherished the most! After all, people are almost always afraid and try to avoid or control what they cannot understand. And in the worst cases, destroy it, this has been proven by history, for example, the witch hunt. But knowing that Aurora is also a witch has brought me incredible relief.
POV Aurora
"But because of the fear of being rejected by you, I thought that you would be afraid of me..."
I felt my heart constrict. I never thought that my brother could feel such fear. For me, no matter what, he was the most beloved and closest.
I looked at him, trying to see the pain he was talking about in his eyes. But he looked away again, his shoulders slumping slightly. It seemed like he had just thrown off a huge load, but that load had left deep traces.
"Never," I said firmly. "You'll never be wrong to me. You are - you. And that's how I love you. Always."
End of POV
POV Aunt May
His words, like sharp shards of ice, pierced into my heart. I didn't expect him to be so confused, so desperate, which was evident in his voice. Fear. I saw it in his eyes and in his trembling fingers.
But, strangely enough, I perfectly understood his fear. He was right. His fear was well-founded. Humans are creatures driven by curiosity, but also by a deep–rooted fear of the unknown. They cling to the familiar, to the understandable, and any deviation from the norm causes them to be wary, and sometimes panic.
I've been through this myself. When I first heard about Aurora, about her... features, my heart sank with disbelief. Fear, cold and sticky, tried to take over me. My mind, accustomed to logic and order, rebelled against this new reality.
But then when I saw her, I didn't see a monster, I just saw a girl. A girl with eyes full of happiness and impatience to meet the unknown and wonderful. I realized that I shouldn't be afraid. Aurora wasn't a threat, she was just... different. Just with new features.
And now, looking at him, I saw in his fear a reflection of my own past. He wasn't afraid that he was dangerous himself, but that others would see him that way.
"You don't have to be afraid," I whispered, tears welling up, hugging them both!
End of POV
"You don't have to be afraid," Aunt May whispered to me.
"After all, those who truly love and appreciate you will accept you for who you are. Even if you're a monster or an unknown animal!" she continued after a moment, pulling away from me, in a calmer voice.
These words struck a chord inside me, as if some kind of weight had been lifted, making it easier to breathe. Now I know for sure that I can always rely on them and trust them!
But still, out of harm's way, and for their safety, I shouldn't tell them everything about myself to avoid getting into trouble. I will definitely share them about myself, but not now, it's not the time yet!
"And now, little brother, tell us what oddities you were talking about!" Aurora asked with a smile on her face!
"Well, for example, like this..."
I stretched out my hand and a small fireball began to form on it! With the power of my mind, I started directing the fireball. It obediently detached itself from my hand and glided smoothly through the air. I carefully followed its trajectory, ensuring it circling the furniture, books on the shelves and, most importantly, without hitting anyone present. The ball flew over the heads of Aurora and Aunt May like an obedient firefly, and then returned to me, disappearing into the air with a light cloud of smoke.
"I can also heal some injuries at will!" I said cheerfully.
After my demonstration and words about healing, there was an even deeper silence in the room. I looked at Aurora and Aunt May. Their eyes widened, as if they were about to pop out of their sockets, like two huge saucers full of surprise and disbelief. Aurora opened her mouth slightly, but could not utter a word, and Aunt May only blinked slowly, as if trying to comprehend what she had seen.
"You... Are you serious about this?" Aurora finally managed, her voice trembling with amazement. "Even many experienced wizards cannot do this, as a magic wand is necessary for conscious witchcraft."
"Maybe I'm just a talented?" I teased her with a laugh in my voice. That's why I got a light blow on the head from my aunt.
"Oh, you little one..." My sister wanted to express her indignation, but her aunt interrupted her.
"Okay, kids, that's enough, then you can talk about your magic tricks later, and now quickly get to the table!"
In the late afternoon, after we celebrated my birthday, we went about our business. Aurora came into my room.
"Daniel, I decided to bring all my textbooks for the first four years to heaven," she told me, putting a stack of books on the table. "I think it will be interesting for you to study them before admission, besides it will save a lot of money."
"Aurora, can you tell me about Hogwarts?"
"Okay, I'll tell you, but not today, I need to finish my homework," she said with sadness in her voice.
After these words, she went to her room. And I decided it was time to use the ticket. Because in the magical world, everything is not as peaceful as it seems at first glance. The year is 1991, so I'm entering the same year as the main character of this world, Harry Potter. And what does this mean? That's right, it means that the return of this bald and noseless psychopath is not far away!
And I would like to be as prepared as possible for this. I doubt that he will target only on magicians. If my memory serves me correctly, Death Eaters also raided Muggle cities. And I wouldn't want my aunt and sister to get hurt! Therefore, I must train myself and prepare for this war, and even better, destroy the maximum number of horcruxes in advance.
With these thoughts in mind, I started packing everything I needed for the trip! I stored all my things in the system space and decided to ask the system:
"System, what should we expect in that world?"
[The only thing that is known is that you will appear in a safe place for you! There is only one piece of advice, move around in angelic form]
Em...
It didn't really provide me with much, but okay, angelic means angelic! I imagined becoming an angel, after which goosebumps ran over me, and a weight appeared behind my back.
I decided to study what I looked like now, because apart from the strange clothes and huge snow-white wings, I hadn't examined anything else. Also I hadn't changed in the last year!
When I looked at myself in the mirror, I was a little shocked, but not to the point of stupor - rather slightly. Since I was already used to my very beautiful appearance, but I also looked great!
My hair fell in elegant strands to my tailbone, while silver highlights flashed through it. Through them, one could see the pointed but not too long elf ears.
I was wearing a toga somewhat reminiscent of ancient Greek robes. It had a deep, emerald green color, like nature itself, and was decorated with ornate gold patterns. It hugged me, emphasizing the slimness of my figure, but at the same time did not restrict my movements. My facial features had now become even more graceful and delicate, but at the same time, they retained their masculine strength.
I had magnificent and huge wings on my back, the weight of which felt like an extension of my body. They consisted of many feathers of different lengths and sizes, and they felt like soft marshmallows or the most comfortable pillow in the world.
After stopping to look at my new appearance, I decided that I had activated the ticket for now. Immediately after that, an oval purple-black portal appeared in front of me. Taking a light breath for courage, I stepped inside the portal.
From the 3-rd person
As soon as the portal closed behind him, time seemed to stop all over the world. There was no sound, no movement, not even the slightest breeze. Aurora, who was writing her homework, stopped her pen a a centimeter from the parchment, as if she had been put on pause. On the street, all sound disappeared, and birds and other living creatures froze as if they had become statues!
The world had become completely quiet and still!

What kind of world do you think his training will take place in?
I plan to have no more than 10 chapters in another world.
