Chapter 275 273. The same magic wand
"When I went to England, I went to Ollivander in Diagon Alley to choose a new wand, which is the one in your hand."
Grindelwald said lightly.
"It works really well. After I got it, I basically didn't use the one I bought from Gregovich until I got another wand that works better. I didn't change it. It, and then all three of my wands fell into Albus' hands."
Jon looked at the wand in his hand. He had always felt that the wand he was using was older than the one used by Neville Ron and the others, but he didn't think about the age before, he just thought the wand was old. The previous owner didn't pay much attention to its maintenance.
I didn't expect to get the final answer from Grindelwald today.
Now he finally understood why not only Dumbledore, but even Aberforth showed such a complicated expression when he saw the wand in his hand. He said that he once wanted to break the wand , but was stopped by Dumbledore.
According to Grindelwald, this wand was chosen after he went to England, that is to say, in the dispute and chaos in Dumbledore, it is very likely that this wand took away Dumbledore and Abby. Forth's sister, Arianna Dumbledore.
"I actually didn't think that he would take out this wand and give it to the students to use, because it has a different meaning to him."
Hearing Grindelwald's words, Jon shook his head and said.
"No, sir, Professor Dumbledore never took out this wand. When we chose wands, we all picked them from an old wooden cabinet in the headmaster's office at Hogwarts. At that time, your wand The wand was placed in the innermost part of the cabinet, and I happened to see it and thought it was very suitable for me, so I chose it.”
Speaking of this, Jon shrugged his shoulders. He raised the wand in his hand, and the tip of the wand, which had obvious signs of wear and tear, shot out a cluster of brilliant silver flowers.
"Of course, it also chose me."
Grindelwald looked at the spark that obviously represented joy, and there was a moment of trance in his eyes.
The reason why he took such a lot of trouble and poached Jon from Hogwarts to Durmstrang was not only because of Jon's talent, but one of the most important reasons was that he had holding this wand.
Even if there are differences in techniques for making wands, the three European wand-making families all agree on the close relationship between wands and wizards.
Because this is indeed a real thing. In the case of poor adaptability, no matter how powerful some wizards are, he cannot use magic with a part of his wand. This is a kind of unsuitability in itself.
While a wand may be usable by several different wizards, it is rarely perfect for two.
It is believed that if something like this happened, there must be some similarity between the two wizards. Similar to the wand with the same core, it is rare for a wizard to get a wand with the same core and the same origin as another, which in itself represents the same choice.
Now this wand, which was once used by Grindelwald, fits perfectly with Jon, which means that not only Grindelwald, but even Dumbledore thought about it for a long time at the beginning. time.
Even Dumbledore asked a wizard from the Order of the Phoenix to go to the Muggle Orphanage to get all the information about Jon, just to see if it was possible that Jon was the orphan of the Grindelwald family. .
There can be no connection in blood, it can only be that there are overlaps in certain qualities, but at present, at least Dumbledore has not found any similarities between Jon and Grindelwald .
Perhaps, the fact that both of them have leadership qualities can be counted.
It is precisely because of this magic wand that Grindelwald actually has some other thoughts in his heart, which is why there is this competition about which side Jon belongs to.
After recovering from the trance, Grindelwald fell into thinking about one of Jon's words again.
"When you saw it, you felt that it was suitable for you? What kind of feeling was that?"
Jon recalled.
"It was a bit like getting an electric shock. I couldn't help looking at the wand. At that time, the wand was placed very close to the inside of the cabinet. I could see that Professor Dumbledore didn't want to take it out for the students to choose. , but I still couldn’t help picking it up and asked the professor if I could choose this one?”
Grindelwald looked at Jon, and he asked more deeply.
"When fighting the enemy, you didn't see their wand pointing at you, but before hearing the sound of the spell, did you have a different intuition?"
Jon scratched his head, he nodded and replied.
"It is true that sometimes this kind of intuition will appear, but not every time, it is the feeling of goosebumps all over the body suddenly, and the obvious sudden feeling in the heart."
"Did Dumbledore give you a divination class?" Grindelwald asked.
Jon shook his head.
"Students in the lower grades don't have it, but after entering the fourth grade, those who are interested in this aspect can learn from Professor Porter."
Grindelwald sneered.
"What kind of divination class is that called? It can only be called a divination interest group at most. In fact, if the theory of Albus's student replaces bloodlines with talents, it may attract more supporters. Because the superiority of bloodlines has never been None have ever existed, but wizards with more talent are indeed much more powerful than wizards without talent, and divination is the kind of magic that requires the most talent."
Jon understood the deep meaning of Grindelwald's words, and he blinked.
"Sir, you mean... I have a talent for divination?"
Grindelwald's face became calm, and he picked up the quill again.
"Having talent does not mean that you will be able to make good use of this talent. It depends on how you develop it. Of course, if you choose to follow Albus in that carriage for the rest of your life, you will never be able to develop it." may be gone.”
Seeing that his attention had shifted to the letters on the desk, Jon wisely did not get in the way in this office. He said "Good night, sir." Then he left the principal's office.
