But if you think about it seriously, the character of Neville now is completely different from the character in the original work, which can be said to be inevitable.
The main reason why Neville in the story became so timid and cowardly is because his parents were tortured by the Cruciatus Curse and became crazy since he was a child, and he himself has been under the high-pressure education of his strict grandmother.
Making his character flawed from the start.
The main reason why the Longbottoms were caught and tortured by the Death Eaters was that after Voldemort attempted to kill Harry Potter, but was struck back by his own death curse and disappeared, his followers wanted to find themselves in the couple.
Clues about the owner.
Judging from the current situation, Neville's parents most likely did not fall into such a miserable situation, and Neville was taught well by them.
"...I have always wanted a wand of my own. I once secretly played with Percy's wand at home and almost threw it into the fireplace. When my parents found out about this,
They were furious, I've never seen them so angry."
When he said this, Ron still looked concerned.
"They locked me in the attic for two full days and asked me to reflect on my mistakes. During this period, they only gave me a glass of water and two pieces of bread. I really don't understand why they had such a violent reaction because it was just a magic wand.
, I asked George and Fred, and they also criticized me with serious faces, but did not tell me the reason. They used to like playing tricks on Percy with me."
Justin asked curiously.
"Is the wand the small wooden stick that Professor McGonagall is holding?"
Neville explained to him.
"Yes, this is the weapon used by wizards to perform magic. Maybe adults are very emotional about their wands, so they punish Ron like this."
"How will the professors give us wands later? Just give us one each?" Lavender asked.
Neville said hesitantly.
"It should be like this. We definitely can't just make our own choices here like we do in the wand shop."
Jon, who had not participated much in their conversation except for a few words, felt that the wand matter was definitely not that simple.
For wizards in this world, the wand is undoubtedly a very important thing.
According to records in the history of magic, after the goblin rebellion was successfully suppressed, the biggest punishment for them was to deprive them of the right to use wands. This can be seen from this history.
This is not to say that without the wand, the wizard has completely lost the ability to use magic, but the addition of the wand to any spell is undoubtedly huge.
After most wizards lose their wands, it will be difficult for them to use the correct spells, and their strength will naturally be greatly reduced.
Even Jon could see that the wand was such an important strategic resource, and he didn't believe that people on Voldemort's side were idiots and didn't realize its importance.
If they completely control the power of the magic world, they will definitely have the ability to control every wand transaction. After all, in the magic world, except for the three most famous families, there are only
Just a few people.
Control from the source to prevent any new wands from being sold to Dumbledore's people. The existing wands in the hands of other wizards are also legally enforced to prepare them at the Ministry of Magic. It will be extremely difficult for Dumbledore to give new admissions to the school.
The students got their own wands.
It's not like you can't buy all of them, but you will definitely have to pay a very high price, and the number of them is unlikely to exceed three in a short period of time.
So Jon is still curious about the origin of the wands they will get later.
Just as the new children were chatting and getting to know each other, Professor McGonagall, who had been away for about ten minutes, returned.
"You all come with me."
Both Justin, who was brought here later, and Ron and Neville, who seemed to be somewhat familiar with this place, were all in awe of Professor McGonagall.
They nervously stood up from their chairs and followed Professor McGonagall out of the room.
No one spoke on the road. They kept walking along the corridor for more than 20 meters, passing dozens of doors, and finally came to the end.
There was also a door at the end of the corridor. Professor McGonagall knocked lightly and said to the people inside.
"Albus, I brought the new students here to receive their wands."
"come in."
A gentle and old voice came from inside.
Jon followed Neville and the other four at the back and walked into the room.
This is a small office. There is only an old man with white hair sitting on a chair. There is a golden perch beside him. On the branch stands a bird with golden-red feathers. Behind him are several people.
In the ten portraits, each wizard in the painting looks very old, with their heads lowered and eyes closed, dozing off.
And above those portraits, Jon finally saw the familiar school badge.
Lion, eagle, badger, snake, four animals surround a capital "H".
The identity of the old man in the office is obvious.
Albus Dumbledore, the headmaster of Hogwarts, has extremely brilliant achievements and ceiling-level strength in the wizarding world. He is known as the legendary figure who is the greatest wizard of the 20th century.
There doesn't seem to be anything special about his appearance. He has half-moon eyes, gray hair and beard, and his face is full of wrinkles left by the years. But his smile is very friendly and makes everyone who sees him smile.
People can't help but let go of tension and pressure.
"I like to see new children coming to this carriage." Dumbledore stood up to welcome them. "This means that the work we are doing will not have no successors. I am your headmaster, Albus Dun
Bullido."
He didn't look like he was saying any polite words, and he acted really happy. He took out a handful of various candies from his drawer and signaled to Jon that they were welcome and could enjoy them as they pleased.
It wasn't until Professor McGonagall coughed lightly that he remembered the business.
"Before you truly become a student in a magic school, a good wand is of course essential."
The smile on Dumbledore's face slowly disappeared, and his expression became solemn for some unknown reason.
"But for you, of course, the wand is not just easy to use, it will become a representative of your beliefs and the beliefs of another person."
His voice was very soft, as if he was reciting some eulogy that evoked memories.
Then, under the blank gazes of Jon, Neville and their four children, the old man opened the door of a wooden cabinet on the right side of his desk.
In the cabinet, there are more than a dozen wooden boxes neatly placed. The wooden boxes are padded with pure white cashmere, but every wand lying quietly on these cashmeres looks so old.
