HP : The Frail-Looking, Iron-Fisted Beauty of Harry Potter

Ollivander, as if possessed, brought out wand after wand.

Each wand represented a different style. He even brought out an elder wood wand from the very back of his collection.

An elder wood wand wasn't the Elder Wand, of course, but it was made of the same material.

The events unfolding before them proved it wasn't a delusion; all the wands had chosen Dolly.

Which meant…

Ollivander's lips trembled, but for the life of him, he couldn't bring himself to say the words: Now you may choose your wand.

After all, in the Ollivander family's philosophy, wands were living things. They chose the wizard, not the other way around.

When a wizard held a wand, the two would begin to adapt to and learn from each other, ultimately completing one another.

But now, all the wands had chosen Dolly. Didn't that mean his family's entire philosophy was shattered?

Dolly keenly sensed the shift in the atmosphere.

It wasn't that she could now read everyone's minds at a glance, but as someone familiar with Ollivander's philosophy, Dolly knew what this situation meant to him.

She smiled faintly and offered her own answer first.

"Grandpa Ollivander, may I respond to the wands' choice?"

Ollivander's spirits lifted. Light bloomed in his eyes, which had been dim with despair.

That's right!

It can be explained that way!

All the wands had indeed chosen Dolly, but Dolly was merely responding to the wands' choice, not choosing a wand herself!

With that explanation, his family's theory could continue, couldn't it?

At this thought, Ollivander's gaze on Dolly became sparkling.

He could tell that Dolly had deliberately used this phrasing to help him out of his own psychological shadow.

What a beautiful, kind, and incredibly insightful child!

Harry was absolutely right about her!

"Come, good child. Respond to the wands' choice."

"Or, if you have a preference for a certain type of wand, I can give you some guidance."

Ollivander laid out what he considered the best wands in front of Dolly. Staring at so many wands, Dolly was at a loss.

Although Ollivander could offer excellent advice, Dolly herself didn't actually know what kind of wand she should use.

After all, Dolly's magic was only at level 1. In the short term, it was clear she had no particular talent for magic.

So for Dolly, the benefits the wand itself provided might be better than the effect of her spellcasting.

That's right, the wand could give her a buff.

Though it was incredible, Dolly had felt it the moment she first touched a wand.

It was just that the feeling was very vague and wasn't displayed in a panel format.

Dolly also tried asking her "golden finger," but the pleasant, big-sisterly voice didn't respond.

So Dolly could only choose to touch all the wands again.

Ollivander watched this with delight, not the least bit angry.

In his eyes, this was clearly Dolly communicating with the wands, his handcrafted children.

He just didn't know which lucky one would be chosen by Dolly... no, would receive Dolly's response.

Finally, Dolly's hand stopped.

Holding this wand, she felt her whole spirit improve.

Seeing that Dolly seemed to have made a choice, Ollivander let out a breath and said, "I didn't expect it to be this one."

"Is it special?" Dolly asked.

Ollivander took the wand back from Dolly's hand, caressed it affectionately, and then said, "It's not that special, really. It's just that it wasn't made by me."

"In my opinion, unicorn tail hair, dragon heartstring, and phoenix feather are the three finest wand cores."

"This is the result of considering performance, stability, and cost."

"Most of my wands use these three materials, but my father and grandfather were still on the path of seeking out different wand materials."

"For example, this one. Willow wood, with a Wampus cat hair core."

"Willow is an extremely rare wand wood that possesses healing powers. Its owners often have an underlying insecurity, no matter how hard they try to hide it."

"The Wampus cat is a magical creature from America. It can walk on its hind legs, run faster than an arrow, and its eyes are said to have the power of hypnosis and Legilimency."

"The Wampus cat is fast, agile, and strong, making it nearly impossible to kill."

"This means that although Wampus cat hair is a good wand core material, it's exceptionally rare. By my generation, I've basically given up on using it to make wands."

"Now, it's yours, Miss Dursley."

Dolly took the wand and gave it a light wave. A soft glow bloomed from the tip, looking almost mesmerizing.

"Yes, that's it."

Seeing how well Dolly used this wand, Ollivander was completely at ease.

"Using it to cast some healing spells will have an even better effect. And its core can keep you healthy, an effect that can even extend to your spirit."

With that, Ollivander smiled slightly. "I was originally going to say that you might be a genius in the study of wandlore."

"But looking at it now, St. Mungo's Hospital might be more suitable for you."

Ollivander didn't ask Dolly what caused her insecurity; that was the most basic etiquette for a wandmaker.

However, he told Dolly a lot of knowledge that only wandlore experts would know, knowledge not usually shared with young wizards buying wands.

Because a wand's additional attributes were actually very weak and wouldn't have a decisive impact on a wizard's spellcasting.

If Ollivander revealed these little details, some young wizards would undoubtedly pursue those vague additional attributes and end up choosing wands that were not suitable for them, not realizing that an unsuitable wand would be the biggest obstacle on their path to learning magic.

After listening to Ollivander's explanation, Dolly was filled with admiration.

Clearly, his theory of the wand choosing the wizard was very close to the truth. At least, Dolly felt that she and this wand were an incredibly good match.

Because of the "Gate," she needed to sacrifice some counterweights, and might even have to sacrifice some blood.

At that time, being skilled in healing magic would allow her to stabilize her physical condition the fastest.

Also, what she feared most was others using Legilimency on her, as her soul was from another world.

And this wand also had a bonus for Legilimency. Did that mean it could also enhance Occlumency?

After all, they were two sides of the same magical coin.

Of course, overall, the wand's additional effects were weak.

However... Dolly could enhance it with attribute points!
