Chapter 240 The boy chosen by the unicorn
"Oak, not red oak, but English oak."
"It is the king of the forest from the winter solstice to the summer solstice. It is a wand that accompanies you when you are proud or frustrated. A wand wood that is extremely loyal to its owner."
"The dragon's heartstring is the wand that changes hands most easily, is the most unstable, and only follows the strong. But on the contrary, the wand it makes is the most powerful, and the spells it casts are the most dazzling. Use it as a wand Core wands have stronger learning abilities than other wands.”
"The combination of the loyal and easy-going wood and the anti-bone dragon heartstrings is as outrageous as a bird in the sky can swim in the water. And he also has a terrifying length, sixteen inches long, a little curved ." While Riddle and Dumbledore were still immersed in the previous news, Ollivander continued to talk about why this wand could be used in the seven impossible combinations.
"Where's the last wand?"
"I want to try the combination of elderberry and unicorn tail hair." Riddle suddenly raised his head, and he had an inexplicable feeling.
"I'm afraid it's not suitable for you. Haven't you noticed that the wood and core of the wand I chose are more suitable for wizards who advocate strength and black magic and prefer neutrality."
Ollivander refused directly, almost saying directly, you are Voldemort, you are crazy, you will think that you can match the pure unicorn tail hair.
"Let Tom try it. You can let him try the wand with unicorn tail hair first," Dumbledore said.
He suddenly had a hunch that this might be related to the fact that Riddle was the conscience abandoned by Voldemort.
Their choices of wands just went wrong, which is why Ollivander was frustrated for the first time.
Normally, no matter how picky a customer is, as Ollivander changes his wand, it should be more and more suitable for him, instead of like now, people who don't know think Riddle is a Muggle.
"Then try this. Apple wood and unicorn tail hair, nine and three-quarter inches, very flexible." Ollivander took out a wand and handed it to Riddle dubiously.
As soon as the wand came into contact with Riddle's fingertips, it started to tremble.
"How is that possible! You try this?"
"Ash, the perfect wood for unicorn tail hair, eleven inches. Good, good."
"I'm afraid this one is more suitable for you. What you just did was too extreme, so let's try this one, a bad boy with a good girl - black pear wood with unicorn tail hair, twelve inches, hard."
Ollivander gasped excitedly. The wands on the chair next to him had piled up into a mountain. His face turned black and white, and he looked like a beggar due to the reaction of the wands.
"I think Dumbledore you're right!"
"Phew! How could Dumbledore be wrong!"
"Here, please try this extraordinary combination, elderberry and unicorn tail hair, thirteen inches, swishing sound."
"It's really amazing. The elderberry, which tends to have a hard texture, is almost the same as willow!" Ollivander said excitedly.
He waved the wand nervously, hitting Riddle's hand directly.
When he touched the wand, something that Riddle had never felt came from the place where he touched the wand's tail handle. It was a female voice that even sounded a bit harsh, but Riddle felt that it was particularly beautiful and familiar. - I hope he looks like his dad.
That voice did not ring in the ears of the other two people in the room. This voice was more accurately in Riddle's heart.
Riddle suddenly understood that this was his mother's blessing.
The only thing she gave herself was his handsome face, which was exactly the same as that of old Riddle.
From the perspective of Dumbledore and Ollivander, a soft white light lit up around Riddle, and his outline became blurred. It seemed that he and Riddle had just become independent and had not yet been awakened by Dumbledore. His name was exactly the same.
"It's amazing! It finally found its owner!" Ollivander couldn't help but exclaimed.
He now really believed that the man in front of him had absolutely nothing to do with the boy who appeared in front of him fifty-five years ago - the past Voldemort.
Could this be Voldemort's son, the secret weapon Dumbledore cultivated to deal with him!
"How wonderful is it?" Riddle said.
But his voice actually trembled slightly. If Dumbledore and Ollivander hadn't paid more attention to the reaction between him and the wand, they would have noticed something was wrong with Riddle.
"The elder wand has to be mentioned as the most powerful wand in history. I like to call it the Elder Wand."
"Legend has it that it is made of elderberry."
"And this wand is one of my replicas of the Elder Wand."
"No, it's not really a sample. It's just a control group, a combination destined to fail."
“But somehow it worked!”
"Elder, the rarest wandwood, has an unlucky reputation and is more difficult to control than any other wand."
"It has very powerful magic, but it disdains being associated with any wizard whose ability does not match its magic. Only extraordinary wizards can successfully pair it with the elder wand."
"The superstition that 'elder wands never prosper' is baseless and stems from mediocre wandmakers. They don't make elder wands more because they think the finished product won't sell."
"And unicorn tail hair is the most mediocre wand core. I mean compared to phoenix feathers and dragon heartstrings."
"It also has advantages. The unicorn tail hair wand is more likely to faithfully reflect the essence of magic and is not easily disturbed by other magic. It is also very loyal, but it is not easy to use it to cast dark magic."
"The rarest and most arrogant elder and the most ordinary and loyal unicorn tail hair. It is not like other unicorn tail hair wands, which are not suitable for dark magic."
"It is like a phoenix feather wand with the widest coverage when casting magic."
"Mr. Riddle, it depends entirely on your choice."
"You are very similar to someone I met many years ago. I don't want you to go down a bad path with him."
"If you don't deviate from the right path, I believe you will become a great wizard like Dumbledore!" Ollivander said.
This is the first time he has warned the owner of the wand.
Like the mysterious man before, he may have realized that he would go down a bad path in the future, but he didn't say anything at the time.
After all, in his opinion, as long as the owner of his wand is worthy of Ollivander's wand, it doesn't matter whether it is good or bad.
But now, he didn't want the owner of the "child" who was so beautiful to go down the same path as the other Riddle.
"I see." Riddle nodded, looking like he was being taught, and he wasn't pretending!
This was completely beyond Dumbledore's expectations.
Dumbledore didn't understand what had changed him in such a short time.
