Dumbledore followed his gaze and understood the child's thoughts.
It's so normal. The first reaction when entering Wizarding World is to have your own magic wand. There is nothing to worry about.
"Let's go buy a wand first..."
A group of three people just pushed open the door and walked in.
The scene inside the door was almost unchanged from the last time Mo Fei followed Kyle. The young Ollivander was still busy at the back door of the counter, sorting out the endless wand boxes that could not be seen.
The tinkling of the wind chime at the entrance of the wand shop lets Ollivander know that a customer has arrived.
He didn't see anyone coming, but the words had already spread, "You are among the first batch, the freshmen who entered Hogwarts..."
Then I really looked up and saw the figure of Dumbledore.
He raised his eyebrows slightly, "Isn't this our professor Dumbledore? Why do new students need your guidance?"
Dumbledore smiled, "This child is a little special..."
Because of Dumbledore's words, Ollivander also set his sights on Tom, but the next second, he was attracted to Mo Fei.
He frowned and thought for a moment, looking for his own skills, and then said with sudden enlightenment, "Have you ever brought a child to buy a wand? Silver basswood, Unicorn Tail Hair, 11¼ inches, medium flexible... I remember it, it's correct, it is a wand like that..."
For him, people may not remember clearly, but they remember the wands he sold very clearly.
Mo Fei is also very surprised. After such a long time, this wizard still remembers it?
However, at this time, he just nodded, "Yes, that was the first wizard in my orphanage... and now he is the second one..." He gently pushed Tom forward, "He is the protagonist today..."
Ollivander also apologized, "Yes, yes, I was busy and forgot, my fault..." He looked at Tom, "Little guy, which hand is your dominant hand, and what do you like..."
"You can use both left and right hands, the right hand is the most commonly used... and I like... magic..."
While stretching out his hand, he looked at Dumbledore carefully.
Before, Mo Fei had been telling Tom not to show everything in front of Dumbledore. Although he didn't know it, Tom had always behaved well in front of Dumbledore. But just now, Ollivander's question almost made Tom blurt out, if he hadn't been vigilant...
However, the two mature wizards present did not notice his pause, but looked at Tom's hand, or to be more precise, his fingers.
Different from the slender or fleshy fingers of children in the conventional sense, Tom's fingers do not have any traces of work on them, but are unusually long and slender. If placed here as a musician, he would be a good piano player, but here, they have new ideas.
In Ollivander's eyes, this is a natural wand blank. Although it is a bit inappropriate to use a wand to describe a finger, in his opinion it is indeed the most appropriate.
The magic power is infiltrated and the joints are properly distributed. If Tom grows up in the future and does not grow crooked, these finger bones can be spliced into two bone wands.
Although Ollivander hardly makes this kind of special wand, it is a wand that is very helpful for undead magic and Dark Magic.
Different from Ollivander's focus, Dumbledore, as Magic Master, knows very well what the magic power remaining on his fingers means.
Apparently, without a wand, the child began trying to use his fingers as wands to cast spells.
It even succeeded.
Throughout history, there have been many children from wizarding families who wanted to do these things.
They all have a lot of magic books at home, so Charms is never a difficult thing for them.
But why they didn't do it? The reason is very simple. Once there is a problem, their fingers will explode and they will be sent to St. Mungo's for treatment. The pain of raw bones will be memorable to them.
Parents who care about their children will always keep their children away from direct spellcasting without a wand.
They may teach a lot of magic knowledge and some combat skills, but the real teaching of magic will come after obtaining the wand.
This is also the reason why the level of the little wizards Hogwarts after entering school is not much different when they are in first grade.
Dumbledore's expression was a little serious. He came to Mo Fei quietly, and then warned Mo Fei, "Director Mo... I told you before However, at this stage of the little wizard, it is best not to use magic, otherwise the consequences will be very serious. Now why do I see Tom using his fingers as a wand to cast spells? This may cause him to break his fingers directly..."
Mo Fei readily accepted Dumbledore's accusation. Without Grindelwald, he would not have acquiesced.
It is a more appropriate choice to start trying magic a year earlier, lay a solid foundation, and then take off when you are in school.
But at this time, Grindelwald's name cannot appear, and Mo Fei can only say, "My fault, Tom wanted to try magic before, so I suggested to him that he could use his fingers as a wand to try casting spells..."
Dumbledore stared at it for a long time, then breathed a sigh of relief, "Tom is lucky, there was no accident..."
The two lowered their voices, and neither Ollivander nor Tom seemed to hear them.
A ruler flew out and measured it in Tom's hand for a long time before finally reluctantly taking it back.
"Wow, what a perfect hand for holding a wand. Looks like today will be a big challenge..."
After saying that, he turned around and started searching for a suitable wand.
"Then try this elm wood first. It is elegant and talented. It can make Charms more stable, and the fire Dragon Heartstring will give him strong explosive power. This sense of conflict comes from a very interesting attempt..."
But as soon as the wand entered Tom's hand, it trembled violently, and then the wand also lost some of its luster.
Ollivander quickly snatched the wand back distressedly, "What a picky guest, actually making the wand fearful?"
After that, he no longer chose those milder wands, but directly began to try more violent combinations.
Mo Fei wanted to know last time. Logically speaking, it is just the wand core. The wand cores commonly used by Ollivander are Phoenix Feather, fire Dragon Heartstring and unicorn tail hair.
There are probably dozens of types of wood out there. With such a combination, how can it be possible to create so many wands?
Moreover, Ollivander himself often says that the wand chooses the wizard, not the wizard chooses the wand...
Every wizard's wand is completely different.
How?
This question has been bothering Mo Fei in his mind.
At this time, seeing Ollivander constantly searching for the wand, he asked directly.
Ollivander's movements did not stop, but there was a sense of confidence, "Oh, guest, you are asking about our secret. The wands we make are different from the wands outside. They may use all kinds of strange materials as the wand core to achieve a certain kind of magic enhancement, but here, our wands are indeed the best to control, and they are most suitable for little wizards..."
He straightened his body, and then spoke mysteriously as if he didn't mind revealing some secrets.
"All parts of the tree can become the body of the stick, but the core of the wood and the position of the edges are also slightly different in their effects. The position of the core and the timing of fusion, as well as the length, softness, and hardness of the body are all very important details..."
When the prompt reaches this point, Mo Fei understands it.
Details determine the difference, so the same material and wand core will adapt to different people's wands.
