Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows

"So, who comes first?"

Cedric and Harry were in position a few minutes later, so Anriel turned to all the warriors in the room and asked.

"What - no, I mean, are you here to check the wand?"

Beauxbatons' second champion, Lady Sophonie, looked a little surprised.

"of course can."

Anriel smiled and held out a hand to her, motioning her to take out her wand.

This French lady looked even more noble and reserved than Furong.

But she still took out her wand and handed it to Anriel.

"Let me see... redwood."

Anriel glanced at the lady and didn't expect that she was a pure European - you know I'm talking about luck.

"Fourteen and a half inches... the core of the staff is... the smoothest strand of hair on the tail of a beautiful female silver-maned horse."

Anriel held the wand horizontally in front of his eyes and observed it with squinted eyes.

Sophenny was stunned, as if she had not expected that this young man did have the ability to identify magic wands.

"A group of butterflies love flowers."

Anriel whispered.

A handful of beautiful and bright flowers sprayed out from the tip of the magic wand, and the scattered petals flapped against each other and actually stuck together to form several butterflies of extremely bright colors.

"Very good, take it, Miss Sophine, it will be your best helper in your first project."

Under Ollivander's approving gaze, Anriel returned the wand to the young lady.

Rita Skeeter didn't know what she was thinking. She stared at the wand in Anriel's hand, pursed her lips, and looked around.

"Well, it's not just me, but also Mr. Ollivander - Mr. Krum, Miss Delacour, and Harry, please go to my master to check the wand, thank you."

Anriel said to the three men who were closer to Ollivander.

After hearing Anriel's words, Rita seemed to come back to her senses.

Anriel glanced and saw the words "Ollivander accepts apprentices" flash by in her little notebook.

"Mr. Diggory."

Anriel called Cedric's name, Cedric smiled and handed his wand to Anriel.

"Hmm... ash... twelve and a quarter inches."

The key point is not the length of the wand, but the material.

Ash wands often choose owners who are stubborn and loyal...

Cedric was just that kind of person.

Anriel shrugged, flicked his wrist, made the wand emit a thunderous blast, and handed it back to Cedric.

The third inspector came to Anriel.

Carmen Crown.

Somehow, Anriel always felt that this person was very special in his subconscious...

He carefully looked at the second best warrior of Durmstrang in front of him——

His black hair hung behind his ears. It wasn't long, but it wasn't short either. He looked thin, but judging from his expression and skin condition, he was healthy...

Judging from the vague outline of his arm as he handed over the wand, although he was thin, it did not affect his muscularity...

Interesting guy.

After Anriel got the wand, he became even more interested in it.

This is a...

"The Grapevine Wand."

Anriel pinched the base of the wand and looked at it with a critical eye.

Grapevine is a very unusual wand wood, and its owner often has this characteristic:

Ambitions are great, but they are hidden deep within.

"Twelve point six... and three quarters of an inch."

Fascinating numbers, intriguing characters.

"The core of the wand is... the blood vessels of a unicorn..."

The craftsmanship of this wand was amazing, and Anriel was sure that it was not the work of either Ollivander or Gregorovitch.

However, no matter how curious he was, he was too lazy to ask...

After all, he could mass-produce the Elder Wand, so why couldn't he allow others to make some technological breakthroughs?

Anriel took the grapevine wand and was about to cast two test spells when he suddenly realized a problem -

Moral considerations aside, the most appropriate spell to test the performance of this wand would be the Unforgivable Curses... or at least the Hexes.

He glanced at Carmen.

Hey, the old guy looks pretty innocent.

Finally, after careful and rational thinking, Anriel decided to use a small evil spell to solve the problem.

On the other side, the three warriors in charge of Mr. Ollivander also completed the inspection of their wands. The old man announced happily that the warriors' wands were all in great working order and had no problems at all.

Rita Skeeter's eyes swept back and forth among the warriors, as if she wanted to make up an article about the various relationships between these people.

But the problem is, looking at the appearance of these warriors, she seems to be unable to offend anyone except the youngest one...

As a journalist, Rita knew very well that without any evidence, the consequences of arbitrarily making up stories about someone like Krum who had a huge fan base would be disastrous - even vague evidence would be fine, but unfortunately she didn't even have that.

Therefore, she did not make any excessive requests or ask any out-of-line questions...

After Anriel finished reading the latest edition of the Daily Prophet, he was surprised to find that Rita actually described each warrior and their characteristics very seriously.

Putting aside the remarks in the article that intensified the conflicts among the three major academies, Rita's description of the warriors themselves is very objective.

She knows what to write and when.

At this time, there is no need to belittle the only and youngest warrior, Harry Potter. Instead, we can promote him, write about the difficulties he will face, and express deep concern.

This way of writing is more attractive.

In short, when Anriel saw that Cedric actually started to cooperate with Harry Potter to some extent in practicing spells, he was more or less mentally prepared.

Although due to academic issues, the fourth grade can hardly be compared with the sixth grade.

......

In addition, Anriel paid a little attention to the contestant named Carmen.

This guy is extremely smooth in his dealings with others, and his presence in the entire Durmstrang delegation is almost zero on weekdays.

Never get involved in events, and never get yourself into trouble.

If every school had not chosen the second warrior, no one would have discovered this inconspicuous sixth place.

Anriel was amazed by this.

But he didn't have time to care about others -

......

Those fire dragons have arrived and he needs to go and meet them.
