The Sorcerer [Edited]

Chapter 06

Sometime around 350 years BC. France

- "So. You say that I should only go with my heart?"

In a picturesque village where the common job is to work the land, a young wizard was trying to understand the words of a man whose face could not be seen.

- "So it is young Olive. The art behind all your intentions must always be the heart."

- "I told you my last name is Olivanders!!!!" 

A boy in shabby brown clothes cursed the man who had invited him to drink a couple of days ago and now revealed his biggest secret to him.

- "Let me get this straight. If I want to become the best wandmaker in the world, I must do it by thinking with my heart....... How the hell should I do that?"

The name of this 17-year-old boy was Tribeus Olivanders, son of a local craftsman and a seamstress, although the family business is in potato farming, young Tribeus' dream was to become the best wandmaker in the world.

- "It's very simple, just let yourself go. Gather all your happy feelings every time you work with wood and just do what you think is best, that's all. There is no riddle in my words, you just have to feel the wand as if it were your child and nothing else."

Present

Ariel stood in the first lobby of Gringotts Bank and in front of him a crowd of people were desperately trying to be part of a "Historical Day" as the boy who defeated the Dark Lord's made his first official appearance before the start of his school year at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry.

While this type of situation was familiar to Ariel, for some reason he felt that the story he knew quickly went down the drain.

- "A pleasure, Miss Dursley. I am honored to meet such a charming beauty of nature." - Ariel kissed Harriet's left hand, eliciting a slight shock and blush from her, but when she saw him smirk, she realized that he was playing a joke on her.

A small blow from Harriet to Ariel's defenseless arm was enough to calm her growing anger, and as she watched him complain from the pain, she smiled in satisfaction.

- "Well, beautiful lady. May I know the reason for your visit to this imposing facility?"

Ariel for some reason felt that acting as a nobleman in front of her was a good idea to use it to annoy her and seeing her discomfort he felt satisfaction for it.

- "Mom is accompanying me to withdraw some money to be able to buy Hogwarts materials."

The statement made Ariel think quickly and come to a conclusion that must have been quite obvious from the beginning.

- "So? You are a first year. In that case which house would you like to be part of, I understand Hogwarts has 4 founding houses."

- "Ravenclaw is the house where the nerds who think that because they know a book by heart they are the smartest, Gryffindor is the house where the brave ones go or the ones who are stupid enough, Hufflepuff is the house where they are fair and loyal enough, although that is quite questionable and finally Slytherin where there is no audacity and their ambition is also questionable or very poor." - As he finished his monologue, Harriet had one eyebrow raised in a sign of being impressed.

- "Wow. I see you did your homework, good for you, for my part, I just hope I'm in a house where they don't look for the taste of my fists." - A giggle escaped from the red-haired girl.
