Description
“I’m here for renovations! What are you trying to do?!” Kaisenxis glared at the strange people who had suddenly appeared at his worksite, wielding a bizarre wooden stick as they attempted to attack him while mumbling nonsense about magic and secrecy. He snapped, and at the same time, a massive obsidian pillar instantly materialized from the obsidian block that had suddenly appeared in his hand, serving as a defensive barrier. “How dare you! And you claim you don’t know magic?!” ——— After crossing into the world of *Harry Potter*, Kaisenxis discovered that he had been granted the cheat ability of summoning blocks from *Minecraft*. Just as he knocked out the lunatic who had rushed at him out of nowhere, ready to make a name for himself in the renovation industry, he suddenly found himself face-to-face with an old man sporting a white beard. “What do you mean… hiring me as Hogwarts’ Alchemy Professor?” And also, what even is alchemy? In his first year at Hogwarts, he kept a low profile, cautiously using only basic blocks to disguise himself as an alchemy professor. In his second year, he started experimenting—Basilisk and Voldemort: What the hell is an Ender Pearl teleportation system? By his third year, he was getting the hang of things—Wither versus Dementors. In his fourth year, he made a name for himself—Death Eaters inciting a dragon riot: What do you mean Hogwarts Castle just stood up?! Then came his fifth year at Hogwarts. Then his sixth year… Now, in his seventh year at Hogwarts, Kaisenxis raised his middle finger at the bald egghead before him, gripping a Command Block in his hand. “Watch closely—I’m about to demonstrate the framework of how this world operates!”

My Thoughts on Hogwarts: Posing as an Alchemy Professor with My Minecraft Skills
This novel's premise, "Hogwarts: Posing as an Alchemy Professor with My Minecraft Skills," definitely grabbed my attention. The fusion of the magical world of Harry Potter with the blocky creativity of Minecraft? It sounded either brilliantly unique or a complete train wreck. After diving in, I've found it's a bit of both, teetering on the edge of enjoyable absurdity.
First Impressions
My initial reaction was cautious optimism. The Minecraft element felt like it could easily become gimmicky, but I was hoping for a clever integration into the existing Harry Potter universe. The idea of an outsider suddenly thrust into a position of authority at Hogwarts also presented interesting possibilities for comedic situations and character interactions.
What Works Well
I was pleasantly surprised by the author's creativity in translating Minecraft mechanics into magical abilities. The protagonist's manipulation of blocks and items, like creating a Redstone-powered Philosopher's Stone or using countless tiny blocks to simulate levitation, is genuinely inventive. The fact that the MC doesn't have extensive knowledge of the Harry Potter storyline is a refreshing change of pace. It avoids the common fanfiction trope of a protagonist who is always several steps ahead and interfering in every plot point. This allows for more organic character interactions and unexpected developments. The story shines when it explores the protagonist's unique approach to alchemy, essentially making him an alchemist unlike any other in history. The potential for him to reshape the magical world with his abilities is intriguing.
Areas of Concern
However, I did find some aspects of the story less convincing. The sudden appointment of the protagonist as a professor, with minimal preparation, stretches believability. The story sometimes struggles to maintain internal consistency with the established Harry Potter lore. The system, which unlocks new blocks based on recognition, feels somewhat arbitrary. Some character portrayals also felt off. Snape's unusual friendliness and Kaisen's violent encounter with Rita Skeeter seemed out of character, diminishing the impact of these established figures.

Final Verdict
"Hogwarts: Posing as an Alchemy Professor with My Minecraft Skills" is a flawed but entertaining read. If you're willing to suspend your disbelief and embrace the absurdity of the premise, you might find yourself enjoying this unusual blend of magic and Minecraft. It's a fun, if somewhat illogical, way to spend some time.
