Professor McGonagall knew that Anduin had a lot of money, so she said, "Let's go, let's go to Gringotts to exchange some money, I guess you can't wait."
Professor McGonagall introduced Anduin, "Gringotts is the only wizarding bank in the UK, run by a bunch of goblins, and it is known as the second safest institution in the world after Hogwarts."
Anduin reached the street's fork under Professor McGonagall's guidance. The street sign had Knockturn Alley on one side and Diagon Alley's main road on the other. At the intersection of Knockturn Alley and Diagon Alley, a white building was present. a goblin guard in a scarlet-and-gold uniform stood at the door.
They went through the first door of shining bronze after entering. Both sides' goblin guards saluted and bowed as they passed. A large marble hall with roughly a dozen goblins seated was found after entering the second silver door. Some use a balance to weigh coins, while others use an eyepiece to find gems. The large ledger is being noted behind the long counter.
These goblins' lives appear to have been little affected by the unrest in the outside world.
Anduin approached a counter with Professor McGonagall's assistance, displayed the Hogwarts admittance notice, and was given 12 gold Galleons for the needy student bursary. Anduin had previously applied for it even though he had money to swap. Don't give it up for nothing, and then swapped 100 gold Galleons for British pounds, which is already a sizable amount of cash for an 11-year-old lad.
It looks like pure gold, but it doesn't feel like regular gold, Anduin said as he emerged from Gringotts carrying a sheepskin bag filled with gold galleons.
It is stated that it was all made of gold by fairies utilizing special fairy craftsmanship, and that special fairy magic was also used to keep outsiders from forging directly with gold.
Professor McGonagall laughed as she glanced at Anduin and said, "I guess you can't wait to have a wand of your own. You can't walk without a wand in the magic world."
Professor McGonagall guided Anduin to the legendary wand store Ollivander's while they were conversing. Anduin entered the store after Professor McGonagall.
With thousands of long, narrow boxes stuffed into the floor-to-ceiling cabinets and a wand on show on a faded purple cushion in front of the window, the business gave off the impression of being a small, crowded, run-down establishment. Behind the counter of the business, a thin elderly man was quietly wiping a magic wand.
Hello, Mr. Ollivander. Let's go buy a wand.
Ollivander stared down at Professor McGonagall and then turned to gaze at Anduin standing next to him. "Oh, it's Minerva, nine and one-half inches, cold wood, I haven't seen you in a few days, time is so fast, it's time for freshmen again!" he exclaimed. "Did you hear that yesterday? It's been a tough time."
Professor McGonagall glanced at Anduin and interrupted Ollivander, concerned that the spread of unfavorable information would undermine the confidence of the young wizard in the wizarding community: "Yesterday's riots will not continue, you have to have confidence in the Ministry of Magic and Dumbledore."
Ollie Vander did not continue the previous subject and turned to look at Anduin, saying, "Yeah, Dumbledore, if he weren't still in charge of the general situation, I guess I would have closed the door long ago, let's not talk about this, let me see what kind of wand this young gentleman is suitable for."
My name is Anduin Wilson, please excuse me.
Mr. Ollivander grinned and retrieved a long silver-marked tape measure from his jacket pocket, saying, "Hi Mr. Wilson, courteous young people like you are unusual these days."
What hand are you using, um?
I often use my right hand.
Ollivander started taking measurements of Anduin, first from the shoulders to the fingertips and then from the wrist to the elbow. Ollivander touched the sturdy arm of Anduin, and thought, "It's not easy to be so strong at such a young age. Muscle could not contain his awe.
Anduin experienced chills all over his body. Is there a problem with this old man? Simply measure it with a ruler, touch it on people, and then purchase a wand to wipe it away?
Ollivander acted swiftly, and while Anduin was considering it, he had already retrieved a wand from the shelf and given it to the person.
Ash said, "Try this one, phoenix feather, 11 1/2 inches, tough and bold."
The wand's tip suddenly caught fire as Anduin seized it and waved it briefly.
Ollivander quickly removed his wand and pulled out a fresh one, saying, "Alright, that doesn't seem to fit you."
Elm, created from the heartstrings of a fire dragon, is nine and three-quarters inches tall and represents elegance and wisdom.
Ollivander removed it as soon as Anduin had it, saying, "It doesn't appear to be this one either."
Try it once again, red oak, nimble, ten and a half inch male unicorn hair.
With a flick, Anduin grabbed it, causing the vase on the counter to shatter.
Ollivander drew back his wand and said, "Well, it seems like you're sharp enough, that's a bit too sensitive."
Anduin tried a few more, but Ollivander stated it was not acceptable, so he added, "Don't worry, you will certainly find a wand that matches you here."
"Try this, Thunderstruck; it's made from a strong ebony wood, Ptarmigan feathers measuring twelve and a quarter inches, hard and unwavering resolve, highly tenacious, and it's still made from the materials Newt gave me. It's priceless.
Ollivander handed them a wand that looked like a black jade. "Making this wand was a lot of labor in and of itself, but with the odd arc, it's not easy to obtain its approval, and finicky guests should try the picky wand."
Anduin was drawn to the depth of this jade-like wand right away. He immediately felt as though the wand in his palm had become an extension of his body and was now connected to his own blood.
When Anduin waved his wand softly, a faint electric light flickered at the tip of the wand.
Ollivander grinned broadly and said, "That's it. I'm extremely delighted that every wand may find a good owner. It can be seen that it likes you very well." He is an excellent carpenter. He was also overjoyed that his creations had a place to live.
Anduin delightedly fiddled with the wand he had just received, saying, "Thank you, Mr. Ollivander, I like it very lot too.
Don't lose or damage the money, Ollivander warned. "Ebony is also ebony, which is extremely good for fighting magic and transfiguration, and I feel it will shine in your hands. In addition, the wizard's first wand is valued at 7 gold Galleons, and the rest will be carried out by Hogwarts.
Anduin cheerfully paid the bill, thanked Mr. Ollivander once again, and then he and Professor McGonagall left the Ollivander wand shop.
