MTL - In This Hogwarts Without a Savior-Chapter 10 is this optional

  Chapter 10 10. Is this optional?

"The combination of elm wood and dragon heartstrings, you should have seen the owner of this wand when you were a child, Ron, Mundungus Fletcher, that squat, unshaven man with two short bow legs Remember him?"

  When Dumbledore mentioned this person, the corner of his mouth couldn't help but twitch a brisk arc.

   Ron obviously still has an impression of this person.

   "The thief who came to my house once as a guest when I was six years old and wanted to take away the only ancestral silver cup in my family, but was finally caught by my mother?"

   Dumbledore laughed out loud.

   "Mundungus is indeed a petty thief. Your father and mother didn't like him very much before."

  Ron couldn't help curling his lips when he heard what he said, and when he looked at the wand in his hand, he unconsciously showed a look of disgust.

   And this gaze was obviously caught by Dumbledore.

   But he didn't teach or reprimand Ron, but asked softly.

   "Then do you know why your parents didn't like him all the time, but still set up a tombstone for him at his funeral?"

  Ron shook his head blankly, as if he didn't know about it at all.

"During an operation in the Order of the Phoenix, he was besieged by the Aurors of the Ministry of Magic. In order to prevent his memory from being read or being given Veritaserum to leak information about us, he did not choose to be caught without a fight, but made a decision. The most fearless decision in his life - to take his own life with this wand in your hand."

Dumbledore's voice was flat, but Ron's mouth grew wide. It never occurred to him that the wizard who looked to him as chunky and out of character, who had no pursuit other than stealing things for money, would end up He would end his life with such a move.

  Ron looked down at the wand in his hand again, his gaze was very complicated.

   "I'll keep him safe, Professor."

   "Of course."

After Ron returned, Justin walked forward with a nervous face turned pale. The child received a lot of stimulation today, knew the existence of magic and wizards, was taken away from his parents, and came to this car called The carriage of the magic school, and now he has to get his own wand.

  He was in no mood to choose, but hastily grabbed a relatively short wand.

   Dumbledore still introduced him patiently.

   "A combination of cedar wood and dragon heartstrings. Its owner is Sturgis Podmore, the first member of the Order of the Phoenix, a reliable wizard. He also died in the battle of the fall of Hogwarts Castle."

   "This is an ordinary person, isn't he, Professor?" Justin asked hesitantly.

   Dumbledore blinked.

"He may not have died as tragically as others, and he has never made any outstanding contributions, but in this era, daring to resist the suffocating power is the greatest feat, Fenlayry Just like when we look up at the starry sky, we also feel that most of the stars in the sky are ordinary, but they are the only ones shining in the dark night, aren’t they?”

  Justin's eyes were bright, and he nodded vigorously.

   "Yes, Professor."

  The other four people got their own wands, and in the end only Jon was left. Under the gaze of everyone else, he also walked to Dumbledore's side.

   To be honest, he doesn't care what kind of wand he can get, as long as it works, there is no problem.

  But the four wands in front represent four different people, which made him feel very heavy.

  Neville’s mother was tortured insane by the Cruciatus Curse in the original book, but she did not escape the bad luck in this world, and died under the Killing Curse of the Death Eaters.

  Hufflepuff's dean, Professor Sprout, is described in the book as a kind and gentle witch who cared for every student, but she died seven years ago.

  Although he was not familiar with the two wizards behind, they still added pressure to the heaviness in his heart.

  He knew very clearly that this world is definitely not the children's story in the original book.

  Students will not spend happy learning time in the castle, and the wizarding world is no longer a magical world full of novelty and fun.

  There is oppression and slavery everywhere here, and Muggle wizards can't even guarantee their own safety. The righteous party has become a bereaved dog, and can only go into exile in a carriage.

  In the story, people he was familiar with died for this, and he himself had no choice at all.

  Although he is an orphan adopted by an orphanage, there are traces of Jon's parents in this world, and after verification by two Hogwarts, he is purely Muggle-born.

  He didn't want to enter the Hogwarts castle known as the "Taming Ground", so he was destined to join Dumbledore's side and fight against Voldemort, who had completely controlled the power.

Jon didn't know if he had this ability. After coming to this world, he didn't have the system and cheats that usually appear in the protagonists of web novels. For wizards, magical talent is very important, and talented people are destined to Achievements are much higher than those without talent.

   But now it was useless for him to think so much, the only thing he could do was to hold a wand in his hand first.

  Looking at the remaining wands in the cabinet, Jon glanced at them, stretched out his hand, and was about to pick up one of them, when the corner of his eye suddenly glanced at the innermost position of the wooden cabinet.

This is a wooden cabinet with a sliding door. Dumbledore only opened half of the cabinet, and under the cover of the other half of the cabinet door, there is still a wooden box vaguely stored. It is difficult to attract the attention of others under normal circumstances. .

  Jon's position is just standing on the other side of the cabinet, so that he can just see it from such an angle.

  His outstretched hand paused slightly.

   There was obviously a wand in that wooden box, but he wasn't sure if Dumbledore put it here specifically for freshmen to choose.

  If it is, then there is no need to hide it behind the cabinet door on the other side, but if not, it can just be put away, and there is no need to put it in the cabinet at all.

Jon hesitated for a moment, but there was an inexplicable feeling that made him reach in unconsciously, grab the smooth body of the magic wand from the wooden box behind the cabinet door, and take it out .

   "Professor, is this wand optional?"

   After he got the wand in his hand, he immediately asked Dumbledore, but at the same time as he spoke, a cluster of brilliant silver sparks suddenly burst out from the tip of the wand!
