Hogwarts on the Tip of the Tongue

Chapter 34: Wand? chopsticks!

Alas, here again.

Looking at Olivander, who was in a sluggish state, Dumbledore lifted his right hand and rubbed his slightly painful forehead. From yesterday to today, he has seen similar situations too many times, Ai Linna always seems to be able to question some of the common perceptions in the magic world from some very strange angles.

"Cough, Mr. Oliver, you do n’t have to worry too much about this problem. As far as I know, most of Hogwarts’ graduates still use the magic wand they bought when they entered school. , Continue to pick the wand. "

Dumbledore gave a slight cough, glaring majesticly, Elena who wanted to say something, and patted Olivander's shoulder gently to try to get everything back on track.

"Oh, yes, yes. Dear, please raise your arms."

Ollivander suddenly recovered, tapped his fingers gently, the silver tape measure automatically unfolded, and flew to measure the size for Elena. And Ollivander himself was shuttled between the shelves, busy moving the long box with the magic wand down.

"Every Ollivander wand has a super magic substance, which is the essence of it, Miss Caslana."

Ollivander returned to Elena with a lot of rickety long boxes and explained, "We used unicorn hair, phoenix tail feathers, dragon tendons, snake nerves, etc. as the core , If you want to fully use these powerful magic items, at least you need to grow up four or five years old. "

"Dragon's tendon? Snake nerve?"

The silver-haired little Lori keenly captured the words in Olivander ’s mouth, and quickly asked after Dumbledore had n’t stopped it. Activity-um, do I mean magical nature? "

"Of course, in a sense, each wand has its own life. This is an art, not a simple wooden stick."

The old man nodded proudly. The Olivander family's determination of the rod core and rod wood material, the process of integrating them and the choice of the ideal master by the magic wand have always been coveted by other magic wand makers.

"All right."

For this topic, Olivander obviously did n’t have much thought to delve deeper, and took a wand from the long box in his arms and handed it forward, “So, Miss Elena, try this one. Grapevine wood And the dragon heart tendon, ten and three quarters of an inch, you should be more suitable with superior wisdom. "

Grunt ~

At this moment, Ollivander was convinced that he heard a very slight swallowing sound.

Elena took the wand and muttered in a low voice.

"That is to say, the magic of the seal inside each wand ... the ingredients (whispering) ... are all with a long shelf life?"

As she said, the eyes of the little silver-haired Lori slowly became hot, and she looked up at the dense long box around her, and her small tongue gently licked her upper lip-each wand was a tiny tiny can what!

Hum ~

Elena's wand in her hand made a strange tremor, and the luster flowing on the wooden surface instantly dimmed at a speed visible to the naked eye.

"Oh, my God." Before Elena reacted, Mr. Ollivander's complexion changed, and immediately took the wand from her.

"Maple, 13 inches long, the dragon's heart tendon. Try this—" This time, she didn't even wait for the little silver-haired Lori to hold the wand, and as soon as her fingertips touched the wand, the wand Shivering slightly, he became disheartened.

"No, no-try this one, beech with unicorn tail hair, 9 inches, 7 inches, inclusive and full of wisdom, very flexible ... hiss ..."

As Elena tried one wand after another, she could clearly see that a series of fine sweat beads had emerged from Mr. Ollivander's forehead, and the entire wand shop was covered with benches and floors In addition to all kinds of magic wands, without exception, there is a situation of death.

Even in the late period, it was like some kind of terrible infectious disease. Row after row of wands became inactive under Elena ’s fingers, and the whole wand shop was filled with an unspeakable strange atmosphere.

"Hey, is that a bit too much?"

Elena raised her eyebrows a little uncomfortably. Why do other people's protagonists enter the magic wand store after all kinds of visions and light, but she is just like a **** of plague, all the magic wands are in her hands as if they are going to die.

"Calm down, don't worry, don't worry."

Ollivander took out his handkerchief and wiped the sweat from his forehead, took a deep breath, and wondered whether there were more ingredients to comfort Elena or more to self-consolation.

Many wands for so many years, Ollivander has never seen a wizard like this that scares the wands-yes, it is fear.

As the creator of these wands, he could feel the slight trembling on each wand, as if the small animal had met a fierce predator.

"A hmm, a special customer. I think there is always one that is the least fearful of you, um, I mean the one that suits and is closest to you-let me think about it-right!"

Olivande glanced at Dumbledore, suddenly slammed his head in a sudden realization, rushed into the shelf and turned over a long box that seemed to be deliberately placed in the corner, and solemnly handed it to Elena.

"An extraordinary combination, holly wood, phoenix feathers, eleven inches long. Holly wood, a symbol of patience and perseverance, and phoenix feathers of courage and hope, I think there should be no problem."

"Er, Professor Dumbledore ..."

Elena blinked, and subconsciously glanced back at Dumbledore. Is n’t this the wand of the savior Harry Potter! She wasn't worried that the wand had chosen her. She was afraid that if she accidentally scared the little wand, what would happen if Harry came.

"Any questions? According to Mr. Oliver's recommendation, try it first ..."

Dumbledore smiled gently, and there was no other reaction.

"Ah-seriously, I have an ominous hunch--"

Elena sighed and picked up the wand in Ollivander's somewhat anticipated and disturbed eyes.

As she held her hand at the end of the wand, the whole Olivander wand shop suddenly remembered a loud phoenix chirp, and the red glow flashed from the head of the wand, dyeing the space with a warm golden color .

Mr. Ollivander breathed a sigh of relief and applauded with a smile: "Oh, great! Really, great ... Hey ?!"

I saw that the wand held in Elena's hands seemed to suddenly go crazy, trembling violently with an unprecedented amplitude, more intuitive and violent than all the wands shown before.

嗖 ~

Snapping.

Next, the crazy phoenix wand broke away from the silver-haired little loli and rushed straight upwards, hitting the hard ceiling hard, and then fell to the ground again after losing power.

"Ah, so this wand, which symbolizes courage ... Was I scared away?"

Elena had a black face and rubbed her palms with facial expressions-because she was too hard, she rubbed a clear red mark on her palms. She has already decided that during this time at Hogwarts, she must eat a Phoenix meat.

"……probably."

Ollivander nodded dumbly, glanced at Elena with a suspicious look, and the wand "corpse" scattered around her, and fell into a long silence, Rao was him, for a while and a half Will not find a suitable wand.

At this time, Dumbledore, who had been playing the watchman quietly beside him, suddenly broke his mouth and said.

"It looks like, Garrick, you need to order an additional wand for Miss Elena Caslana, just like you did before."

In fact, before Garrick Ollivander took over the family business, most wand founders in the magic world were more casual in this regard. A customer often gives the magic wand maker what they prefer, inherited from their ancestors, or a magic substance trusted by the family.

This kind of cognition didn't change until Garrick Ollivander, the Mr. Ollivander in front of them, appeared.

Garrick Ollivander is a purist, he insists that the core of the best wand will never be the beard of the cat raccoon that the customer favors, or the freshness that protects the customer's father from poisoning. Branches, or the hair of a mermaid that customers encounter while on holiday in Scotland.

On the contrary, the best wand should contain a wand core with strong magic power, and the wand wood is made of carefully selected materials complementary to the characteristics of the wand, and the wand chooses the most attractive wizard.

Although everyone initially opposed this kind of subversive wand making method, people soon discovered the fact that Ollivander's wand is better than any other wand.

"Custom wand? It seems that this can only be done."

Ollivander frowned, although somewhat reluctant, but at present it seems that there is only such a way. After all, the sign of the long-established Ollivander family can not appear flaws in his hand, but there is only one problem.

"I have some options for the magic wand material, but Albus, what does the wand use?"

"One hair."

"My hair."

Dumbledore's and Elena's voices sounded almost simultaneously.

Ollivander thought carefully, spread his hand, and said seriously.

"No way. If I guess right, this Elena Caslana should be a half-mei girl? The magical material in her hair is not enough to build a powerful wand."

"She doesn't need to be too powerful a wand." Dumbledore shook his head. "The magical potential in her body is already amazing enough. For her, the most important thing is to learn how to control, not to pursue more powerful. Power. I think this should n’t be difficult for Garrick? ”

As he said, Dumbledore gently waved his wand, and a long silver hair fell off silently, floating into Ollivander's hands.

"Well, okay. If you insist on it. However, it is not cheap to order a magic wand in advance. For the material, I recommend black walnut."

Ollivander pondered for a while, then shrugged helplessly and promised.

"Wait, hiss, there is a little ... request."

Elena gritted her teeth and pulled out several long silver hairs from her head in one go, tears were handed to Ollivander.

嘤 ~ It hurts ~~ ???????????

Then, Little Loli asked beggingly, "Grandpa Olivander, can you help me build two magic wands? After all, I am special. If one is broken, there is a spare."

Two roots? Ollivander looked at the silver-haired little loli in front of her with a smile, and the little girl thought that wand casting was a simple craftsman's job. She shook her head and said proudly.

"Every Ollivander wand is unique, UU reading www.uukanshu.com therefore ..."

"Cough," Dumbledore glanced at the tearful silver-haired loli and cleared his throat. "I remember a unicorn colony living in the Forbidden Forest ..."

"Of course, out of the use of cherished magic materials, we occasionally use the same materials to make magic wands. Leave an address and I will send you an owl after a week."

Ollivander changed his voice without hesitation, not even noticing the subtle expression change of Dumbledore next to him.

"Hey? Thank you Professor Dumbledore, thank you Mr. Ollivander."

Elena was overjoyed and thanked again and again-black walnut, which is quite rare for making chopsticks, ah, wow, the top wood of the wand.

PS: Regarding the previous chapter, it should be noted that the protagonist did not propose a new concept, but inspired Ollivander from the road of studying materials and rod cores to the road of the once-different staff form. It is similar to that after the emergence of the hard pen, the feather pen gradually disappeared in the mainstream society. Since the magic wand became a systematic production, the xenopus completely withdrew from the market. However, the short and simple wand shape wand has become the mainstream format, but this does not mean that it has full advantage and suitability for the entire scene. For example, some people like big swords and big sticks.

PS2: I placed a description of the wand material outside the fan, which was carried from pottermore. Interested little wizards can go and see.

PS3: Ask for a recommendation ticket to feed, 嘤 嘤 嘤 ~~ This is a super large chapter close to 4000 words.
