Everyday players at Hogwarts

In Ollivander's Wand Shop, Ollivander began to say a long paragraph that he would not usually say to ordinary customers: "Each Ollivander's wand is made from a small part of the tree that can produce wand material. Made of wood (just as only a small percentage of humans have magic) and a super-powerful magical substance."

"Each wand is unique, its properties determined by the properties of the tree from which the wand is made and the magical creature that inhabits the wand's core."

"After each wand finds its ideal owner, it begins to teach it its properties and learns the traits of its wielder."

"So if you want to find a wand that works as well as before, I'm afraid you won't find it with me, unless it's a hornbeam wand that suits you."

“You have to grind it out like a beginner and let it grow,” Ollivander said. He stared directly into Riddle's eyes, as if he meant something.

The reason why he was suddenly so brave was because in his profession, he did not allow himself to retreat due to fear. This was the reserve of Britain's number one staff master.

"I've never used a magic wand. Don't look at me like this. I'm actually only 11 years old. I'm just a little taller." Riddle said seriously.

But it's strange. It's obviously a ridiculous thing to say, but when it comes from Riddle's mouth, it gives people a rare sense of conviction.

"But what's so special about a hornbeam wand?" Riddle asked.

"Horbeam wands choose wizards who have a gift and a single, pure passion for something."

"It is like a blank piece of paper, requiring the same simple ideas, and therefore the time it takes to adapt to their master's magical style is the shortest of all wands. They will become extremely personalized in a very short time, so that It would be very difficult for anyone other than the owner of the wand to perform even the simplest magic with it."

"Similarly, a hornbeam wand will also absorb the moral principles of its owner, and regardless of the moral standards of the wand owner, a hornbeam wand will refuse to cast any spell - good or bad, that goes against the owner's principles. .This is a wand that is particularly good at integrating and extremely perceptive.”

"You can try, hornbeam wood and phoenix feathers, thirteen inches long." As Ollivander finished speaking, the wand was handed into Riddle's hand.

But it was like a chopstick, without any reaction.

Ollivander had a serious expression on his face, and after carefully asking for Riddle's permission, he took it away and looked for other wands in the cardboard box in the room.

"Try this, blackthorn wood and dragon's heartstrings, nine inches long."

"What about this? Cherry wood and phoenix feathers, twelve inches long."

"What a discerning guest, cherry wood and dragon heartstrings, eleven and a half inches."

........

I have tried nearly a hundred wands, but none of them responded at all.

The wands that had been tried were piled higher and higher on the bench.

Ollivander was not as excited as usual when meeting picky customers. On the contrary, while looking for the wand in exchange, he kept mumbling to himself, "How could it be... This should be the most suitable one for him."

"Why not try the combination of yew and phoenix feathers." Riddle asked curiously. Did Ollivander think that he was no longer suitable and needed new changes?

"The yew wand is a very rare wand. Because it contains poisonous sap, the yew is often associated with magic and death. When the outer layer of the yew tree dies, new trees will emerge from it. The center continued to grow, so it was seen as the tree of immortality and also as a symbol of the reincarnation of the soul. The Celtic priests regarded the yew as a symbol of immortality and immortality."

"The phoenix feather is the rarest type of wand core material. It is the most proactive wand core. Sometimes it will even act according to its own wishes, and it is the most picky about choosing potential owners."

"The combination of these two materials, the immortal wood and the feathers of the phoenix resurrected in the flames, sounds like a perfect match. However, in my generation, only phoenixes, unicorns, and dragons are used as the core of the staff. A perfect wand was completed, thirteen and one-half inches, yew wood, phoenix feather."

"It's one of the seven impossible combinations in my store," Ollivander said wistfully.

His pale eyes stared intently at Riddle, seeming to have forgotten his fear.

"Seven impossible combinations?" Dumbledore finally couldn't help but speak out.

"Among these seven wands, three of them have wand materials and cores that I no longer use, so I won't introduce them. Their cores are White River Monster's back thorn, Trophinosaurus heartstring, and Thestral's core. Tail hair," Ollivander said.

"The spines of the White River Monster? The spells it casts for the core of the wand are powerful and elegant."

"But as far as I know, only American wand maker Tiago Quintana uses this material. This is not because it is not good enough, but because Tiago Quintana has always kept the secret of how to trap the White River Monster. .”

"After his death, there should be no wandmaker using it as a wand core anymore," Dumbledore said.

"As expected of you. I once used part of the craftsmanship I summarized to exchange for the White River Monster's spine thorns from Thiago." Ollivander said.

He looked in admiration, never expecting that Dumbledore would be involved in wandology, a knowledge only spread among wand makers.

"Where are the other four wands in the seven impossible combinations?" Riddle asked impatiently. He still couldn't stand other people praising Dumbledore.

In addition, his original wand was one of the seven wands, and he was very curious about it.

"I have already said that one of them is the wand of the mysterious man. He followed him and did great things." Ollivander said, which made Riddle suddenly think of something, "The other one can't be Harry." It’s Potter’s!”

"You guessed it right, eleven inches, holly wood, phoenix feathers, soft and flexible."

"The holly wood that symbolizes death and rebirth and the phoenix that also dies and is reborn in the flames are the same extraordinary combination. One of the two tail feathers of the same phoenix is ​​made of this wand, and the other tail feather is made of yew. That one." Ollivander paused for a moment, and after Riddle calmed down, he continued, "The other two are a combination of oak and dragon heartstrings, and elderberry and unicorn tail hair."

"Oh, where is their master?" Riddle and Dumbledore said almost at the same time.

One of these two wands belongs to Voldemort, and the other belongs to the Savior. Then, what kind of extraordinary existence would the owners of these two be?

"One of them has no owner yet." Ollivander said, and then he looked at Dumbledore with a very special look, "And the other one is the Hogwarts gamekeeper - Rubeus Hagrid. .”
