Gemma cautiously reached out a hand towards the snake. Its body felt surprisingly warm, and as her fingers brushed against its rough, almost grainy scales, a flicker of wonder crossed her face. Upon closer inspection, however, it appeared to be an ordinary snake, lacking any distinctive features.
"This reminds me of Professor McGonagall transforming her desk into a pig," she remarked, a hint of amusement dancing in her eyes.
Hermione chimed in, narrowing her eyes with skepticism. "Impressive, but where's the level-up you're talking about? I don't see the enhancement here."
Sensing their disappointment, Sasuke began to explain. "Let me explain. Before leveling up, even if I transformed something into a snake, it wouldn't have venom. I would have had to inject it myself, the process was much more arduous. Now, I can also add effects like transforming a snake to have poison. For normal transformations, things require barely any effort." As he waved his wand all-rigid chairs transformed into plush, comfortable sofas.
"What about other spells? Did those improve as well?" Gemma inquired, her curiosity piqued.
"Only transformation magic could be leveled up," Sasuke replied, a hint of disappointment in his voice.
Gemma continued the conversation. "Why transformation magic?" she pressed, leaning forward with genuine interest. "Wouldn't a more powerful spell be better?"
Sasuke sighed, a frustrated puff of air escaping his lips. "Magic like the Killing Curse is useless for me. I can already create powerful techniques to kill people. Protective spells might be useful, but transformation offers more problem-solving options in battle or everyday life."
"The Killing Curse is the most feared spell for a reason," Gemma countered, her voice laced with disapproval. "How can transformation be better?"
"Perhaps you haven't witnessed a powerful transformation spell in action," Sasuke countered. "Imagine turning your enemy into an egg during a fight. Then, smashing curse or Killing Curse it wouldn't make any difference."

"wouldn't a more powerful Killing Curse solve the problem even faster?" Gemma persisted, her brow furrowed in contemplation.
"I have more efficient ways to kill someone," Sasuke declared, a confidence resonating in his voice. "Even a knife could do the job. I might learn the Killing Curse in the future, but it wouldn't make me inherently stronger."
The conversation about killing magic clearly annoyed Hermione,She fixed him with a stern look."You shouldn't be discussing killing spells," she interjected sharply. "Sasuke, focus on your studies and stop proposing to girls out of the blue!" With that, Hermione Granger stormed out of the room without a backward glance.
Cho, who had been silently observing the exchange by the door, joined the exodus. "It looks like you upset her," she noted, a hint of sympathy in her voice. "And Hermione's right. Stop proposing to random girls just because of some magic." She echoed Hermione's sentiment before exiting the room, leaving Sasuke alone with his thoughts.
Sasuke slumped onto the newly transformed sofa, a frown marring his features. He'd just showcased his power, yet the girls' reactions weren't what he expected.
Observing Sasuke sitting with a complex expression, Gemma selected a sofa, placed it near him, and asked, "I hope you don't assume that just because I agreed to be your girlfriend after seeing your strength, you think displaying some skills will make every girl fall for you."
Sasuke, startled by her voice, replied, "I thought this would be faster," he muttered. "I don't want to waste time; it would be more beneficial for me or them to enhance our strength."
(A soft voice of the goddess system echoed in his mind)
[Host, please don't forget I am a goddess system, so please don't say something like spending time with girls is a waste of time.]
Feeling a little embarrassed by the situation, he realized he was still continuing his training believing he would have more control over his strength.
[Host stop over thinking, don't forget your recent rewards are enough to skip years of training all the skills I give you should be able to use naturally like this time ]
As Sasuke's was about to check system reward. Gemma, who was sitting with him, broke the silence. "Are we going to just sit like this for the entire time?"
Hearing Gemma, Sasuke felt like today was his day of embarrassment, not knowing how to reply.
Hearing no reply from Sasuke
She ask, "I hope you are not expecting me to just sit down here and do nothing.".
Listening Gemma's complaint Sasuke finally spoke, "We could practice or read some books."
That's really not fun. Don't you play games or something?
"No, most of time I am studying or training!. "
"Well, I can't blame you, since the reason I became your girlfriend is your strength, so I can't ask you to quit training, but it's be good if we could do something together.".
"I can reduce training time so we can spend more time together," Sasuke offered, "but you'll need to come up with some activities we both enjoy."
"No, no, I hope you can become stronger soon," Gemma replied.
"Oh, that's a quite weird statement," Sasuke said. "If you want some type of revenge, you should say it now. There are not many people I cannot kill with my current strength."
"If it's Dumbledore, I am not sure to finish him, but there are some ways to trick him so he could die," Sasuke admitted.
Hearing Sasuke is ready to kill people for her, Gemma happily replied, "I just want someone strong enough to protect me."
