Headmaster's Office at Hogwarts

A Gryffindor student reported to Dumbledore and Dudley who were sitting in their seats.

"In the last month, McLagan has been to the Room of Requirement twenty-eight times, each time for more than an hour, and has tried to use the Vanishing Cabinet one hundred and twenty-eight times."

"Without exception, they all failed. . .

"During this time, he fired thirty-five times, smashed thirty-four teacups, tore twenty-four books, and kicked five stools"

The Gryffindor recounted what McLagan had done as if he had seen it with his own eyes.

"The record is very detailed, thank you for your contribution to Hogwarts."

Dudley did not hesitate to praise the other party's report after listening to the other party's report, and the latter was overjoyed when he heard the praise.

"Report to Luna, and if you can pass the test, you can be a member of the disciplinary team."

"Yes, Mr. Dursley, it is my pleasure !!"

The Gryffindor student exclaimed excitedly.

There are many more students like this Gryffindor in Hogwarts, so to speak, almost all of them are watching Cowmike McLagan, consciously or unconsciously, only he doesn't know it, and he thinks that what he is doing is very hidden and no one notices.

After the Gryffindor student left, Dudley turned to Dumbledore and said, "Professor Dumbledore, the school's defenses are basically complete, but McLagan's repair progress is slower than I expected. ”

"Not only was the vanishing cabinet not repaired, but it was even worse because of his temper."

"To choose a Gryffindor with nothing but recklessness, Senior Tom really made a pretty bad move."

Expecting a character who has been appointed by the author to only Gryffindor to be reckless to do a very delicate job, and it is already a great restraint that he did not directly dismantle the vanishing cabinet.

It's best to go to Hufflepuff for this kind of thing, they have enough patience and care enough, and they don't play tricks like Ravenclaw and Slytherin.

"Even if we don't know anything and don't do anything, the chances of him fixing it are almost zero."

Dudley spread his hands out and said at Dumbledore.

Don't say it's him, even Dumbledore is speechless, Voldemort really chooses who is wrong in the matter of choosing people.

Such as Snape, Lucius and . . Well. Something like that.

In fact, this can't be completely blamed on Voldemort, he really has no one to use, Slytherin is not all Death Eaters, and many are neutral people, and the Death Eaters are at most cooperative relations, so there are only a few choices in total, since he has given up on Crabbe and Goyle, and treats the two of them as fish to attract attention, then he can only choose McLagan.

"Looks like we're going to have to wait a long time, Dudley."

Dumbledore said as he sipped a lemon-like drink through a straw.

Dudley didn't know exactly what it was made of, but it was definitely very sweet.

Dumbledore was really, really fond of sweets, and he couldn't do without them almost every day, always having something sweet in his spare time.

As long as you don't eat for a day, you will feel uncomfortable.

Dudley suspects he's a bit of a sugar cradle.

"No, Professor. I don't think we should have to wait too long. ”

Dumbledore put down his drink and waited for his next words.

"We. . It can also help him with repairs. ”

Dudley's attention made Dumbledore slightly stunned, and he did not expect to help the enemy repair it.

But if you think about it, Dudley is right, they can still help him fix it, even when it will be repaired, when it can be used, they can still have the final say.

Turn reactive into proactive.

Who made Voldemort unreliable?

"When the defenses are all completed, we can start to help repair the Vanishing Cabinet, my alchemy level is okay, I think it should be able to be repaired."

The Vanishing Cabinet is not very difficult to repair, at least not for Dudley, even the original Malfoy can be repaired.

"By the way, what do you think of the matter that I discussed with you earlier?"

Dudley asked suddenly.

"You mean accidentally being defeated and 'missing' the Elder Wand?"

Dumbledore said and took another sip of what appeared to be lemon juice, and after careful consideration, he spoke, telling the secret of the Elder Wand: "Dudley, you may not know the characteristics of the Elder Wand, as long as you lose, whether it is real or fake, even if it is fake, the owner of the Elder Wand will change. ”

As the wand with the least loyalty, even if you use it to play match-fixing, as long as you lose, the old wand will change hands.

Only an invincible wizard deserves it, and it will only be on the side of the victors.

"Professor Dumbledore, there's no need to use a real Elder Wand, we just need to find someone who is equally powerful."

"Senior Tom never had an Elder Wand, did he? He didn't know the power of the Elder Wand, only that it was powerful."

What good things did Voldemort see? The wand he had used before had been bought from Ollivander when he was in school.

That's right

"So. Where do we find such a wand? ”

Dumbledore was very cooperative and said that since Dudley said so, it means that he has a way.

Dudley paused, "Professor, I actually make wands too."

Is there anything else you won't do?' ’

Listening to Dudley's words, Dumbledore let out a sigh unconsciously.

He never imagined that Petunia, the little girl who had no talent for magic and wanted to come to Hogwarts decades ago, would be so good.

As if to make up for his mother's regrets, he was able to do almost perfect anything related to magic.

Even better than Tom back then, at least Tom was only excellent as a student when he was in school, and Dudley was not only excellent himself, but also led his classmates.

It's just perfect. Leader.

Just like back then. Gellert, maybe even better than him?

'Oh, he doesn't have the gift of a prophet. ’

Thinking of this, Dumbledore shook his head with a soft smile, and when Dudley showed a puzzled look, he continued the topic just now: "You mean you want to make a staff?" Making a wand is not an easy task, not even I know. ”

Making wands is also a type of alchemy, but it requires more professionalism, although Dumbledore's alchemy is good, he does not have the talent of making wands.

Who knew that as soon as he said this, he saw Dali pulling something out of his pocket.

It won't.

Dumbledore chuckled in his heart.
