Chapter 14 Big... Big-Billed Bird?
McGonagall described what happened that day in great detail, especially the part about selecting the wand.
Dumbledore gradually had a general impression of the young wizard named Wayne Lawrence.
Both parents are dead, but he was born into a noble family.
There is also a high-ranking Muggle uncle in the family.
He didn't follow the rules when doing things, and even took gold to Gringotts to exchange for gold Galleons for the first time.
Most importantly, talent is visible to the naked eye.
When you come into contact with the wand that suits you best, you can instinctively cast the Patronus Charm. Even with Dumbledore's knowledge and experience, he has never heard of anything like this.
"It looks like we are about to have a talented student and future famous alumnus."
Dumbledore was very happy and his snow-white beard moved twice.
"I hope he will be more obedient." McGonagall recalled the questions Wayne asked her at the Leaky Cauldron and said with some concern:
"The Weasley twins are enough of a headache."
Dumbledore didn't care much, "Student, it's better to be more lively."
Whenever he sees those energetic students, Dumbledore is always gratified from the bottom of his heart. These little wizards are his most precious treasure.
After saying a few more words, Professor McGonagall left the principal's office.
Dumbledore also put the matter of Wayne behind him. He now had many problems to think about.
The Boy Who Lived is about to arrive at Hogwarts. As if pulled by fate, Voldemort, who has been dormant for ten years, also reappears and is eyeing the Philosopher's Stone.
He specifically borrowed the Philosopher's Stone from Nico Flamel, and he took the initiative to let the news out.
This is a bait.
Not only could he be used to test Harry, but he could also attract Voldemort's attention and observe his condition.
In order to be sure, more adequate preparations must be made.
Sighing, Dumbledore took out a copy of the Daily Prophet. The headline on the cover was the theft of Gringotts a few days ago.
...
"The tea cups are flying!"
Wayne lay comfortably on the sofa, picked up the wand on the table and chanted the spell.
A cup filled with black tea flew out steadily from the kitchen and landed in his hand.
During the whole process, not a drop of tea was spilled.
After drinking all the tea in one breath, Wayne put down the wand and tapped the teacup twice.
The water flows and the tea cup is filled again.
According to the first of Gamp's Laws of Transfiguration, food cannot be transformed out of thin air.
Just now, Wayne did not conjure black tea out of thin air, but used a charging spell to 'summon' the black tea from the teapot in the kitchen into the cup.
"Silent spells and wandless spells can be considered beginners, but they can only be used on some simple spells."
The continuation spell is a very simple magic, so he can cast the spell without a wand, and he doesn't even need to recite the spell.
But the Flying Curse is much more difficult. This is a curse that can only be learned in the fifth grade. Now Wayne cannot cast spells without a wand for the time being.
Wayne's magic level has long exceeded the standards of first-year students, or in other words, surpassed most of the young wizards in Hogwarts.
But as you learn more about magic, you can appreciate its depth.
The magic in the world of Harry Potter is too idealistic, and it is not an exaggeration to call it the power of my imagination. It highlights a wish that comes true.
The level of a wizard does not depend on how many spells he has mastered.
But it lies in how deeply he understands magic and how much he knows about his own soul.
At least now, Wayne feels that he is similar to Hermione in the original book. He knows a lot of spells, but he is just not strong enough, and he is not good at it.
"Forget it, why are you pushing yourself so hard?" Wayne laughed and shook his head, realizing that he was a little impatient these days and wanted to realize all his talents immediately.
But in fact, he is not even a first-year student now, he is just a preparatory little wizard.
After drinking all the black tea in his cup, Wayne got up and entered the kitchen to prepare a casual dinner.
The servants and chefs at home have been transferred to other positions.
Although I felt a lot more comfortable, it was a bit troublesome to prepare three meals a day by myself.
Today is the tenth day since I got the pet egg. Calculating the time, I guess it will hatch soon.
So when the meal was ready, Wayne didn't finish it in the restaurant. Instead, he took the plate and returned to the bedroom to watch over it, so that he could not find his mother when the little one was born.
No, it's dad.
After he finished eating, the little guy still had no intention of coming out.
Wayne simply didn't leave, and just lay in front of his desk in a daze, thinking about which college would be better for him to enter.
Slytherin would definitely not consider it, and he would not go even if the Sorting Hat recommended it.
He was a Muggle-born little wizard who entered Slytherin just to attract hatred. If he wanted to have an easier time, he probably had to defeat all the little snakes like Voldemort did back then.
In that case, his points would definitely explode, but it would be too troublesome.
It is also easy to be targeted by Lao Deng.
Gryffindor isn't a good choice either.
First, being too close to Harry was basically equivalent to living under Lao Deng's surveillance, which was very unfree.
Secondly, Wayne himself is not interested in Gryffindor.
It sounds nice to say that they are courageous and adventurous, but Chunchun is a group of noisy and reckless people, and they extremely reject people who don't fit in with the group.
Like Hermione in the beginning.
We were all happily mischievous and conspicuous.
Just you studying hard there, what does that mean?
In addition, Gryffindors place great importance on collective honor. Even if Harry deducts points for the house, he will be criticized and subjected to cold violence.
On the one hand, they are the largest mischievous group in the school, and on the other hand, they are most eager for collective honors such as the College Cup.
What kind of ultimate contradiction is this?
Wayne didn't want to find fault.
Then the only options left are Ravenclaw and Hufflepuff.
Where is the better place to go?

The crisp sound of the eggshell breaking reached his ears, bringing the thoughtful Wayne back to reality, and he quickly raised his head.
Carefully taking out the Pokémon egg and placing it on the soft velvet cushion, Wayne's eyes were filled with anticipation.
Of course what he wants most is cute Pokémon like Gardevoir, Fairy Eevee, or Melueta.
Of course, he doesn’t dislike Rayquaza and Ice Dragon Kyurem either.
Click!
The upper part of the eggshell was completely separated, and the little guy revealed his true appearance.
Wayne stuck his head out and then his eyes widened.
"Is this... a toucan?"
"Chirp!"
