Harry Potter's Bastard

"Let's go buy you a wand first. Solim walked Diagon Alley with Sylna.

"Will the books be mine, or will I buy new ones?" Solim asked Sylna, after all, the textbooks used by freshmen hadn't changed in years.

"Just use yours, I know, you don't have much money. "Sylna is very considerate of her brother.

"I still have this money, if you don't need to buy a new book, then what pet do you want to give it? owl or cat or something else?" said this, Solim then added: "Let's talk about it first, toad, mouse or something, I won't buy it for you if you want it." "

Hearing Solim's words, Sylna gave her brother a strange look.

"Toad, mouse, do you think your sister is some kind of strange person, and how do you think I'm interested in that animal?"

Seeing Sirna's normal pet orientation, Solim said with relief: "That's good, that's good, ah, we're here." "

The Ollivanders wand shop is not only famous in the country of Ying. It is also a very well-known presence in the wizarding world throughout Europe. The wand shop run by Ollivanders is the only wand shop in Diagon Alley and is quite famous in Europe. The shop is always full of wand boxes, which have been in existence since 382 BC.

Ollivander's storefront was small and dilapidated, with a wand lying on a faded purple cushion in the window. The gold sign on the door has been peeled off, and it reads: "Ollivanders, a well-made wand since 382 BC".

"Is this the Ollivanders Wand Shop?" Sylna surveyed Ollivander's store up and down, "it's in tatters, it feels like it's going to close." "

"Alright, let's go inside. Solim pushed the door open.

The hall was small, with nothing but a bench, and thousands of narrow boxes containing wands almost up to the ceiling. There was no one behind the counter, but Solim believed Ollivander already knew there was a customer.

"Ah, good morning, kids. Ollivander stood on top of a high ladder and slid out of the depths of the shop. "Oh, Mr. Selwyn, is that wand still in use? I haven't met a wizard who has been chosen by an alder wand in years. "

Ollivander climbed down the high ladder and walked to the back of the counter. This was the first time she had met the wandmaker, who was famous throughout Europe. If it's the first time you've seen Ollivanders, you're sure to be drawn to his silver-white eyes.

"If I'm not mistaken, this must be Miss Selwyn. Ollivander said as he took out a tape measure and parchment from under the counter, "Let's get started." Which hand do you use?"

Next, Sylna honestly measured the length of her arms, the length of her forearms, her height, and her head circumference as Ollivander requested. Armed with the data, Ollivander left, and went to pick a wand for Sylna.

"What's the use of that?" said Sylna, puzzled after a series of measurements.

"The Ollivanders have been making wands for a long time, and they have their own way of doing it. Professional things are left to professional people to do. If you want to know, you might as well ask him for yourself later. "Solim didn't really know why he had to measure this or that when he chose his wand. But he knows that it's always okay to leave things that you don't understand to someone who knows how to do it.

"Try this, Miss Selwyn. Ollivander always walked out of the high shelves, "The body of the cypress cane, the core of the cane is ......"

"No, no cypress! Mr. Ollivanders, please change one, this is too unlucky!" Solim hurriedly interrupted Ollivander when he heard that it was cypress. "I'm sure it's definitely not for Syrna!"

Glancing at Solim in surprise, Ollivander said, "Mr. Selwyn seems to know a lot about wands, so you should know that it is the wand that chooses wizards, come on, Miss Selwyn, give it a try." "

Ollivander ignored Solim's words and shoved the cypress wand into Sylna's hand.

"Hmm...... Not a good fit, is it?" Ollivander snatched his wand back again, "Wait a minute. With that, he walked back to the shelves until his figure was blocked by the shelves.

"What's wrong, brother, why are you so excited when you hear Kashiwagi?" asked Sylna.

"The cypress wand is unlucky. Solim didn't want to explain it to Sylna.

The cypress wand is often associated with courage, and its owner is usually self-sacrificing. A wizard with a cypress wand usually dies honorably. Solim was well aware that the peace was short-lived, and that getting a cypress wand at such a time was not a good sign.

Not to mention Solim's superstitions, there are a lot of things in wandology that can't be explained. It's like what ordinary people think of ghosts - it's better to believe in what they have than what they don't.

Soon, Ollivanders returned, but this time with several wand boxes.

"Here, try this first, walnut, the tail hair of the female unicorn. Ollivander handed Sylna a wand.

Before Sylna could swing it, Ollivander snatched it out of Sylna's grasp.

"It's not too suitable, and although you can use it, it always feels like something is missing. Ollivander casually threw the wand into the box, "Try this next, Elm, Dragon's Heartstring, for a young lady from a pure-blood family, Elm should be a good fit." Although I think it's complete nonsense to say that elm can only be used by purebloods. "

When Sylna waved her wand, there was a violent explosion in the room. The shop window facing the street was shattered, startling the two wizards who happened to pass by. Silna quickly dropped her wand on the counter.

“...... Well, it's not perfect. Ollivander didn't care that his window was broken.

"Mr. Ollivanders, I know my sister well, and you may wish to try a wand of pine, applewood, or black walnut. Of course, acacia wood should not be bad. "

"Oh?" Ollivander thought for a moment, "I can think about it, but I don't think this young lady would be a good fit for a pine wand." "

Solim's face twitched. I thought to myself, aren't you cursing my sister?

Watch as Ollivanders disappears from the shelves once again. Sylna began to ask questions of her brother.

The types of wood that Solim mentioned all have certain qualities.

The Acacia wand usually refuses to use magic with anyone other than its owner, but in turn, it only shows its prowess to the most gifted. The owners of acacia wands are usually attentive wizards.

Applewood is powerful, especially for those with high ideals and pursuits, because it is not suitable for black magic. It is said that the holder of an applewood wand will be loved and will live a long life.

Black walnut is not as common as a regular walnut wand. Black walnut wands generally look for owners with keen intuition and insight. Black walnut looks beautiful, but it's not easy to control.

And the pine can only be said to be Solim's good wishes for his sister. Many wandmakers believe that the owner of a pine wand lives a long life, and that the pine wand is very sensitive to silent spells.

After a while, Ollivander was back again.

"Mr. Selwyn's words just now reminded me that perhaps the best fit for you is Riki. Then Ollivander handed Sylna a beautiful golden pear wand, "Pear wood, the tail feathers of the phoenix, twelve and three-quarters inches, are very powerful, and it will help you not to take a detour." "

When Sylna held the wand, Solim knew it was it. The wand glowed brightly golden, then slowly faded.

"Miss Selwyn, congratulations. Ollivander smiled and said, "The owner of the pear wood wand is usually very popular and respected. I've never found a Dark Wizard holding a pearwood wand. "

"How much, Mr. Ollivanders?" Solim began to dig into his purse.

"Twelve Galleons. "

"So cheap?!" Silna looked at her brother incredulously.

"Well, I'll tell you when I get out. Solimmari counted twelve Galleons and handed them to Ollivander.

"By the way, Mr. Ollivander, take the liberty of asking," Solim knew that his next words might upset Ollivander, "I have some rare materials here, can you help me make a wand?"

"We don't accept customization here, Mr. Selwyn. Ollivander frowned, "But I still want to ask, what are the 'rare materials' you are talking about? You know, not all materials are suitable for making wands. "

"Ghost wood and snake wood, I don't think they count. Slytherin's wands and staffs are made of snake wood. "It's not that Solim doesn't want to find another wandsmith. It's that Solim is not at ease, these two precious materials, if people take them, they will disappear, and Solim can't do anything about them. But Ollivander is different, he knows Dumbledore, and he can still be trusted, but I don't know if he is willing to agree.
