Reborn at Hogwarts

Ivan followed Mr. Vesemir, and the two came to the door of the basement one after the other.

"It's right there." Mr. Vesemir looked at the wooden door covered in dust and cobwebs, and couldn't help frowning. He tapped the door lightly with his magic wand, "Clean it up."

The tip of the wand shone slightly, and the dirty wooden door instantly took on a new look.

"Come in." Vesemir pushed open the door and walked into the basement first.

Due to the lack of cleaning after the move, the basement was full of all kinds of sundries, and there was a musty smell in the air.

Mr. Vesemir waved his wand and chanted a spell, the aging electric lights were turned on again, and the debris piled up on the floor was arranged in an orderly manner. It didn't take long for the basement to become clean and tidy.

Ivan couldn't help but looked enviously at the wand in Mr. Vesemir's hand. Although he only used some simple household spells, this feeling of being able to cast magic freely was what he longed for.

Mr. Vesemir noticed the look in Ivan's eyes, and couldn't help but smile, "These spells are just the foundation of the basics, and you will learn them after you read the books."

Obviously, he misunderstood what Ivan meant.

But Ivan didn't have the idea of ​​explaining either.

"Let me see where your grandpa's wand is... Forget it, the wand is flying!" Mr. Vesemir rummaged through a pile of debris for a while, and finally gave up this time-consuming and laborious method. Just wave your wand.

The next second, with a "whoosh", a pitch-black wooden stick rushed out from the shadows in the corner, and landed firmly in Mr. Vesemir's hand.

"This is the wand your grandfather used when he was alive." Mr. Vesemir showed the wand to Ivan, "Blackthorn wood and phoenix tail feathers, eleven inches, your grandfather used it for almost fifty years, fortunately He's usually more careful, and he hasn't broken anything yet."

He handed the wand to Ivan, "Use this wand to practice the spell before you receive the admission letter."

"Isn't there a saying that the wand chooses the wizard? So I can use it directly?" Ivan played with the wand fondly, and he could feel the warmth of his fingertips when he held it.

"It's just one-sided remarks by that old guy Ollivander." Mr. Vesemir sneered at this, "People in our family have always been able to use any wand, such as your father and me, when we went to Ollivander I bought wands from De's store, and each one was easy to use, and the old guy was stunned. I didn't know which one was right for me, so I just picked it randomly in the end."

Hearing this, Ivan frowned, realizing that the matter was not simple.

According to the description in the original book, there are indeed such terms as "fitness" and "choice" between wizards and wands.

Leaving aside, let's just talk about the old wand in Dumbledore's hand. As one of the Deathly Hallows, if you want to get its approval, you must defeat its owner.

There is no doubt that this is a manifestation of "the wand chooses the wizard".

But according to Mr. Vesemir, the Vesemir family has never had this kind of problem, and can it fit perfectly with any wand?

If it wasn't the effect of magic, then it should be the effect of blood.

Perhaps the Vesemir family is not of pure human blood, but also has the blood of some other intelligent creature?

Think carefully!

"...I used to think that if our family was a relatively poor family, we could save a lot of money on the wand." Mr. Vesemir rubbed his chin, "If we only have one child Forget it, up to three wands..."

"Okay, father! Let's not talk about this topic." Ivan had to interrupt his fantasy, "How do you want me to learn magic?"

"Oh, speaking of this issue - I think it's enough for you to read the spell book first, and memorize the spells." Mr. Vesemir said, "Although the law has no rules on whether a young wizard who has not entered school can cast spells." There's a small, insignificant loophole in this, but I still wouldn't recommend casting spells on your own."

"Memorize the spell first, memorize everything in the book, and use it if you encounter a situation where you must cast magic." Mr. Vesemir concluded.

Ivan nodded.

He had expected this result a long time ago. Mr. Vesemir has always acted in such a cautious manner. Although there are no clear regulations in this regard in the law, he still needs to take precautions to avoid being caught in the pigtails. .

"Now that the wand is found, let's go up first, Ivan," said Mr. Vesemir. "There is nothing in the house now except your mother's "Complete Household Spells" which she bought after Frodo disappeared. Books on spells. You can play with the wand for a few days first, and practice how to pull out the wand handsomely. After two days when the department is not busy, I will take you to Diagon Alley to buy a few books."

"You go up first, Father. I want to look in the basement for old books on spells." Ivan had already prepared to reject Mr. Vesemir's proposal. He still had one important thing to do. .

"Okay, then you can look for it, maybe there are old books thrown here when we moved." Mr. Vesemir shrugged, turned and walked upstairs.

After his back disappeared from sight, Ivan waited for a while to make sure that Mr. Vesemir would not come back to find him in a short time, so he immediately rushed to search in the pile of old books.

What he was looking for was the "Illustrated Household Appliance Maintenance Illustrated" mentioned by the black-robed wizard!

This book, which was regarded as a treasure by the dark wizard Alger, who did not hesitate to use force to force Mrs. Vesemere to hand it over, is absolutely impossible to be just an ordinary Muggle book, and there must be some secret hidden in it.

By the way, Ivan asked Mrs. Vesemir once afterwards, asking if she knew what Alger wanted?

Madam Vesemir shook her head blankly, expressing that she just wanted to take the opportunity to make Alger relax his vigilance, and find another chance to knock him down.

As for the so-called treasure, not only had she never seen it, she had never even heard of it.

After searching for a while in the pile of old books, Ivan finally found this red and green reference book from a pile of waste paper.

"Illustrated Household Appliance Repair"!

"...This weird title combined with my excited mood at this time is really out of harmony." Ivan picked up the book and couldn't help complaining in his heart, "It's as if my dream is Like being an electrical repairman..."

This is a standard tome reference book. Ivan put it on the ground and compared it with his magic wand. It is roughly estimated that it is almost ten centimeters thick.

Ivan turned the book to the sixteenth page according to the words of the black-robed wizard, forced himself to ignore the TV disassembly diagram that took up almost an entire page, pointed to the page number with his magic wand, and whispered:

"For the greater good."

The moment the incantation was uttered, the pages of the book closed automatically without wind, and under Ivan's vigilant gaze, they closed again.

The title of the book that was originally printed on the cover also twisted like a snake, turning into a puddle of ink, and finally recombined into a new line of text.

"Secrets of Cutting-Edge Black Magic · First Edition".

There is also a line of inconspicuous small characters below.

Owner: Gellert Grindelwald.
