Hogwarts everyday players
Chapter 4 Buying a Wand
Speechless, really speechless, Ryan found that he was too naive. After all, each wizard had no name written on his face. Even if he met the original characters, he wouldn't be able to recognize them.
It's a pity that he's not old enough to buy a wand yet. Thinking of this, Ryan suddenly realized that he had lost his mind after traveling through time, so he couldn't buy it in advance.
"Father, can I buy a wand?"
"Yes. But I suggest you buy it when you are 11 years old before entering school." Jack replied.
"Sure enough, Jack never refuses, hum, here comes the wand."
Ryan walked back again and walked with Jack to the last shop in Diagon Alley, Ollivander's Wand Shop.
The shop was small and shabby, and the gold-lettered sign on the door had peeled off. It read: Ollivanders: Making Fine Wands Since 382 BC. In the dusty window, there was a solitary display on a faded purple cushion.
Holding a magic wand.
When they entered the store, there were jingling bells coming from somewhere behind the store. The store was very small, with nothing else except a bench. Jack sat on the bench and waited, and Ryan recalled at the same time
From the description of the original work. [Harry had a strange feeling, as if he had arrived in a strictly managed library. He suppressed the many new questions that had just arisen in his mind and began to read the thousands of questions that were almost to the ceiling.
A long and narrow cardboard box. For some reason, he suddenly felt frightened in his heart. The dust and silence here seemed to make people feel that there was hidden mysterious magic.]
As mentioned in the book, the silence around him was terrifying, but even with a magic power of 16 and a thinking ability of level 2, Ryan was so anxious that he almost urinated and could not detect the fluctuations of magic that Harry Potter felt.
Sure enough, as Ryan speculated, in addition to the nature of magic power, every wizard also has an aspect that he is good at. For example, Tonks's Disguise Magus can naturally change her own appearance.
As for Harry Potter, it can be seen from the original description that he is very good at magical combat. Although he is short-sighted, his perception is super strong. In the third grade, he used some physical Patronuses that even skilled wizards cannot use.
"Good afternoon." A soft voice said, startling Ryan.
Suddenly there was a loud clicking sound, and an old man stood in front of them. His big, light-colored eyes were like two shining moons in the dim shop.
"Hello." Ryan replied politely, tightening his little face. This bad old man is very bad. I'm afraid he doesn't like to suddenly scare people. He must have come out a long time ago. He just kept silent, and Harry just said
Even Hagrid was shocked.
"Oh, yes," the old man said, "Yes, yes, I know I will see you soon, Ryan Smith, that's not a problem. Your eyes are just like your father's. When he came here to buy
It seemed like yesterday that he had taken his first wand. It was six inches long, made of ash, stubborn, and had inconsistent loyalties. In fact, we had only seen it last week."
Mr. Ollivander walked up to Ryan and looked at him carefully.
"Your mother is different. She likes acacia wood. It is eleven inches long, flexible, and more picky. It is difficult to find a suitable wizard. It only shows its strength to the most talented people. I said your mother likes it.
It - in fact, of course it is the wand that chooses its wizard."
He shook his head, and then recognized George Smith played by Jack at a glance. This made Ryan sigh in relief. This old man talks a lot and has a good memory. Is it true that every little wizard whose parents are wizards will be talked about when he comes?
Click your parent’s wand.
"George! George Smith! It's so nice to see you again... It's ash, six inches long, right?"
"Yes, Ollivander, why do you always mention my wand every time we meet?" Jack said.
"We just communicated about the price of acacia wood last week. You also know that I need a lot of wood here, and I am also considered an old customer of yours. Smith has been cooperating with our family since 382 AD.
Yes, what do you want at this price?" Mr. Ollivander said, suddenly becoming philistine.
"As far as I know, you don't need much inventory of acacia wood. The owners of acacia wood wands are usually careful wizards. Moreover, there are relatively few wizards with this quality. Not all wizards are like my wife.
Careful." Jack replied in a pretentious manner, which was completely different from usual. Ryan almost thought that his father had not passed away.
"Okay, okay, let's not talk about this first. Mr. Lane, come on. Let me see." He took out a long tape measure with silver scales from his pocket. "Which arm do you use to use the wand?"
?"
"I'm right-handed," Ryan said.
"Lift your arms. Okay." He measured Ryan's size, first from the shoulder to the fingertips, then from the wrist to the elbow, the shoulder to the floor, the knees to the armpits, and finally the head circumference. He measured while saying
: "Every Ollivander's wand contains super powerful magical substances. This is its essence, Mr. Smith. We use unicorn hair, phoenix tail feathers and dragon nerves. Every Ollivander wand contains
All Vander wands are unique, as no two unicorns, dragons or phoenixes are exactly the same. Of course, if you use a wand that belongs to another wizard, it will never have such good results."<
/p>
The service is really great, I remember the slogan so accurately, I don’t even have to change the lines, Ryan said in disbelief.
Next, Ollivander himself went to the shelves, busy selecting some long boxes to move down, while the tape measure was operating automatically.
"Okay." He said, and the tape measure fell to the ground and rolled up into a ball. "Well, Mr. Lane, try this one. It's made of hawthorn wood and dragon heart string. It's seven inches long. It's good. It's very flexible. Give it a try.
."
Ryan took the wand, and as soon as he waved it, Ollivander immediately took the wand away from him. "It's made of alder, phoenix feather, eight inches long, not easy to bend, try it..." Ryan was about to say
He tried, but before he could lift it, Ollivander took the wand away again. "No, no... try this one. It's made of apple wood and unicorn hair. It's eight and a half inches long and very elastic.
Strong. Come on, come on, try this one."

Ryan tried one after another, secretly excited. He was indeed the protagonist, trying so many.
The tried wands were piled higher and higher on the bench. Ollivander also looked very happy for this picky customer.
"A picky customer, huh? It doesn't matter, I think you can always find the most ideal, perfect, and most suitable one for you here... Let me think about it... Oh, if you have it, how can you not...
...an extraordinary combination, holly wood, phoenix feathers, eleven inches long. Nice and flexible."
Ryan quickly took the wand, which was Harry Potter's. But Ollivander quickly took the wand again.
"No, no... try this, aspen, a rare unicorn heartstring that can be used as a wand material. Come on, come on, try this. A rare material."
Ryan took the wand again, and then his fingertips felt slightly warm. He raised the wand high above his head, and swung it downwards with a swish. Through the dusty air, he saw only a white light, and the head of the wand was like fireworks.
There is a constant crackling sound.
Jack clapped his hands and cheered, and Ollivander shouted loudly: "Oh, great, oh, really, great. Oh, oh, oh... It's so wonderful... It's so wonderful..."
He put Ryan's wand into the box, wrapped it in brown paper, and kept saying: "Wonderful...wonderful..."
"I'm sorry," Ryan said, "what makes you feel weird?"
Mr. Ollivander looked at Ryan with pale and colorless eyes.
"Aspen is a white, fine-grained wood. Because of its stylish appearance like ivory and its ability to perform excellent spells, it is regarded as a treasure by all wandmakers."
"People who are suitable for aspen wands are usually skilled or destined duelists, because aspen wands are particularly suitable for the use of combat magic, but this is not its magical place."
"The wonderful thing is the core of the wand. Its core is the heartstring of a unicorn. You must know that except for the naturally shed hair of the unicorn, the materials in other parts are cursed unless it is voluntarily sacrificed. It is really an extraordinary combination.
."
"Chenghui, 20 galleons." Ollivander continued.
"So expensive?" Ryan couldn't help but be speechless.
"For every new student who enrolls at Hogwarts that year, the Ministry of Magic will subsidize the cost of buying a wand. If you don't buy it in advance, you can offset the discount by 9 gold galleons."
Turtle, doesn't it mean that this wand is 2 Galleons more expensive than Harry Potter's after discount? That's awesome, Ryan said inwardly.
Then Ryan asked Jack to pay and spent an additional 3 Galleons to purchase a wand cover and maintenance set.
