Harry Potter: You Mean I’m Actually a Seer?

[Cautious survival early on + slice of life + family bonds + friendship + character growth + a little self-indulgent + a little suspense + prodigy + no romance]

[The Hogwarts plot begins in Volume Two. If you’re not interested in the early slice-of-life chapters, you can start with Volume Two! It won’t affect much.]

In her previous life, one night during her senior year of college, she and her friends stepped in to rescue a girl who was being harassed. A week later, while she was walking alone on campus, thugs ambushed her in retaliation and stabbed her to death. In her agony, she was reborn as a baby in a magical world, beginning a new life of adventure.

In this life, she is Corina Bourbon, born into France’s oldest wizarding family, once the royal house.

She was extraordinary from birth, and she will always be powerful.

Being a young lady is only one part of her identity, not all of it.

She is salvation for those who have lost their way, and a guiding light for those who are lost and uncertain.

She returns to the past carrying knowledge of the future, and turns aside the Grim Reaper’s scythe.

She is the only person ever forgiven for casting an Unforgivable Curse.

She is an eternal anthem of the Wizarding World.

Content warnings:

No romance! The four little troublemakers act as a gang!

The original couples stay together! Characters will die! Lots of original worldbuilding!

Treat it as a parallel universe!

Most importantly, this is not a Harry-bashing story! Nor is it Dumbledore-bashing!

P.S. The original characters generally follow their characterization in the original novels.

You can enjoy the story even if you haven’t read the books or watched the movies!

The female lead will struggle and keep a low profile early on.

The Hogwarts plot starts in Chapter 13, so feel free to skip ahead.

Corina Bourbon, whose Chinese name is Lin Qingyue, is a true half-blood (wizard and Muggle, French and Chinese), with powerful soul force and magic.

No golden finger. No System. No pocket dimension.

The young lady herself is the golden finger.

The story of her motherland will occasionally be interspersed as well.
