Chapter 011 Artel’S Wand
“This wand isn’t mine, it’s from my grandfather, a great attempt.”
Ollivander smiled mysteriously, and took out a simple wand from inside, which also looked yew wood, but there were some complex patterns on it, which were very mysterious.
“This is a special yew tree. It absorbs the blood and toxins of the leopard. The normal core can’t even get close to it, so my grandfather made a bold attempt.”
Ollivander stroked his wand and said slowly:
“Yewwood, Dementor’s nerves…”
Before Ollivander could finish speaking, Professor McGonagall interrupted him.
“What? Ollivander, I don’t agree with you giving such a dangerous wand to a little wizard.”
“Oh, take it easy, Minerva, it’s not the wizard who chooses the wand, it’s the wand that chooses the wizard. This wand has been silent for hundreds of years, and it’s been waiting for today, I think.”
Ollivander handed the wand over.
Artel looked a little surprised at the wand in front of him.
A wand made of dementor nerves, Ollivander’s grandfather is really crazy.
By the way, does that thing have nerves?
How did you get it off?
Artel reached out and took the wand.
A mysterious feeling of throbbing spread throughout the body, and strands of white mist formed out of thin air, with a terrifying chill, sweeping the entire Ollivander Wand Shop, but in the blink of an eye, the entire shop was covered with frost. .
“Perfect combination! Really perfect combination!”
“Yew, Dementor’s nerve, eleven inches, boy, this wand is yours.”
Ollivander clapped his hands happily, suddenly thought of something, and continued:
“But one thing you need to know, this wand can’t cast the Patronus Charm, but don’t worry too much, the Patronus Charm’s biggest role is to resist Dementors, and you don’t need it, because this wand will protect you from being captured. Attacked by ghosts.”
“Olivander.”
Professor McGonagall stepped forward and asked solemnly:
“I wonder if this wand has dementor properties, such as sucking people’s happy emotions into darkness.”
“No, Minerva, our Ollivanders wouldn’t make such an evil wand, on the contrary, with the nerves of dementors, this wand not only protects him from dementors, but also protects him from dementors. It can make him more sensitive and yearning for happiness and beautiful things.”
“People who are in the dark yearn for the light more, don’t they?”
After hearing Ollivander’s words, McGonagall breathed a sigh of relief.
If Ollivander says it’s true, the wand will be doing Artel a lot of good.
“I hope so, but thanks anyway, Ollivander.”
Professor McGonagall said, and was ready to take everyone away. Of course, Hermione and Artel paid seven Galleons each.
Artel’s wand should be worth well over seven Galleons, but Ollivander didn’t increase the price.
After leaving the wand shop, Professor McGonagall took them to Mrs. Malkin’s robe shop to buy wizard robes, then went to Lishen Bookstore to buy textbooks needed for the new semester, and then went to the next door to the cauldron shop to buy alchemy robes. Crucible and brass balance for weighing.
In addition to the textbooks required for the first grade, Hermione bought a lot of extra books, which made her not have enough money to buy a pet, and Artel didn’t buy a pet because he thought it was too much trouble.
In short, after they bought everything they needed, it was already past four o’clock in the afternoon.
“Okay, that’s it, Artel, Ms. Granger, the school starts on September 1st, you have to be at King’s Cross Station before eleven o’clock that day to take the Hogwarts Express, remember to bring your tickets. .”
After Professor McGonagall’s instructions, she sent them to the Leaky Cauldron. She still had things to do. When they were shopping just now, something seemed to happen to Gringotts. Professor McGonagall wanted to take a look.
After Professor McGonagall left, the Grangers looked at Artel, who was holding the cauldron and a pile of things, and asked:
“Artel, where does your family live? Why don’t you put your stuff in my car first, and we can take you home first.”
“Thank you, Mr. Granger, but no, my family should be waiting for me outside the pub now.”
Artel smiled at Mr. Granger’s kindness, and then again, Hermione’s parents were really nice people, much better than Harry’s aunt and uncle.
“That’s good, our family lives in Manchester. I’m a dentist and I have a private practice there. You can come to our house if you have time.”
Mr. Granger smiled, took out a business card, and put it in the pocket of Artel’s suit.
“I will.”
Artel nodded. Manchester is in the northwest of London and Birmingham, not very far away. It only takes two or three hours by car or train.
The four walked out of the Leaky Cauldron, Artel looked around, Jimmy and a few Razor thugs were waiting at the corner of the street.
“Jimmy! Hey! I’m here!”
Artel shouted, and Jimmy, who was smoking, heard the sound, turned his head and looked over, then choked off the cigarette and ran over.
“Huh, I actually bought so many things.”
The bodyguards behind Jimmy took the cauldron and the book and left with a wink. Jimmy muttered and looked at Granger and the others.
Artel introduced him.
“They are the Grangers, and this is my classmate, Hermione Granger, who also goes to Hogwarts.”
“Oh! Oh! She’s a… I mean, a little witch?”
Jimmy’s otherwise unconcerned expression turned serious by the way. *
