The Wolf is Coming Ch. 40

At the end of August, Abraham came to Ollivanders' Wand Shop again.

"Oh, Mr. Cromwell, you are finally here." As soon as he saw Abraham, Mr. Ollivanders immediately took out a long box from under the counter and handed it to him.

Abraham took the box and gently opened the lid, and saw a magic wand lying quietly in the middle of the purple velvet cushion. The body of this magic wand was pitch black and looked plain. But when Abraham held the wand in his hand, almost immediately, the top of the wand flashed with fluorescent light, and an extremely comfortable feeling flowed along the wand to his limbs.

"Beechwood body, werewolf hair core, fourteen inches long..." Ollivanders excitedly talked about the material of the wand, showing a loving expression, "Oh, this is really the most satisfying custom wand I made this year. Try it quickly, I guess it should be very easy to use."

So Abraham tried to point the wand at the only bench in the store and whispered a levitation charm to it. The bench immediately floated steadily from the ground to the air at a uniform speed without any problems in the middle. Then, he changed to other spells, sometimes enlarging and shrinking the bench, and sometimes turning it into a "quacking" duck, and he never got tired of it.

"Mr. Ollivanders, this is great! You are definitely the best wand maker!" Abraham said excitedly after trying almost all the spells.

"Of course." Ollivanders smiled at him, "The wonder of the wand is that it can perfectly guide the magic power in the wizard's body, making it easier to cast spells. We often regard the wand as the second life of the wizard, so please use it well and take care of it."

After walking out of Ollivanders' Wand Shop, Abraham saw the bird that made trouble in Diagon Alley last time before he took a few steps.

This was a black eagle with extremely bright and smooth feathers. It was more than half a meter tall and could be said to be a big guy among birds. However, unlike the chic figure that made trouble in Diagon Alley last time, it had been locked in a huge metal birdcage at this moment and placed in front of Eeylops Owl Emporium.

The reason why Abraham could recognize that it was this black eagle that made trouble was entirely because he saw the crystal hairpin in the cage; large and small crystal particles formed the shape of peacock feathers, which looked elegant and generous. The witch lady seemed to like this hairpin very much. Abraham rarely saw her wearing it several times.

As the school was about to start, the little wizards had basically finished their purchases, so Eeylops Owl Emporium didn't have much business today. The owner of the owl shop saw Abraham staring at the black eagle, so he walked out of the shop and chatted with Abraham, "Sir, do you like this black eagle very much?"

"Oh, I just think it looks familiar." Abraham said.

"Of course it looks very familiar! This guy sneaks out as soon as he gets the chance, and makes trouble for me all day long!" The owner seemed to be angry about the "bad deeds" of the black eagle, and his emotions seemed a little excited. Then he remembered that he still had to do business, and hurriedly made amends, "Oh, I mean... this is a black eagle with personality, very personality!"

"I know." Abraham approached the cage and looked at the black eagle.

"Although its temperament is too lively, it has also received some basic training, so it is no problem for it to deliver mail." The boss looked at the black eagle that gave him a headache, then looked at Abraham, gritted his teeth, and said, "If you really want this one, I can give you half the price!"

Abraham thought about it, and actually negotiated with the black eagle in the cage, "Hey, troublemaker, are you interested in coming with me?"
