Now that they had successfully found the deed to the house, they had achieved their objective for this trip. They did not touch the obviously dangerous black magic items or the other strange collectibles.
Under the guidance of the ring puller, they retraced their steps.
After another half an hour, the car finally returned to the ground after a mad dash.
Elwyn, Harry, and Hermione felt as if they had been reborn and returned to the human world as they looked at the familiar buildings in the opposite alley and Professor Lupin who greeted them with a smile. Although he didn't see the wealth of the Blake Family, the location of the treasury and the countless secrets of Gringotts were enough to excite him.
The three of them discussed with Lupin what they had seen and heard in the depths of the underground, such as the Fire Dragon chained by iron chains, the small island in the rolling lava, the treasury of a pure-blood sorcerer family from a thousand years ago, and so on.
Among them, Elwyn was most interested in the treasury with the number '1' and the emblem of the Slater Family.
He was certain that there was a connection between the decorations on the treasury door and the strange decorations on the Slythrin Locket in his bosom.
There was one more thing, it was about the secret treasure key left behind by the four magnates.
Elwyn had some speculations about the location of the key.
From the meaning of the words, since Gryffindor's treasure key was kept in the centaur tribe, then Slytherin's key could very possibly be hidden in Gringotts by the pixies, in that mysterious vault he just saw.
The problem now was how to confirm this matter and retrieve the key?!
Asking the pixies was impossible, and directly barging into Gringotts was courting death.
Elwyn pondered for a moment, if Slytherin's treasure key was really in Gringotts, then he still had to start from that vampire girl called Elaine and her family.
Even if they were vampires, they were descendants of the Slytherin family.
Like Voldemort, in terms of bloodline, they were both the rightful heirs of the treasury.
While Elwyn was contemplating this matter, Lupin was telling Harry and Hermione about the magic that the sprites had set up in Gringotts, as well as the weakness of the fire dragon that they had just seen.
Sirius followed behind and did not participate in the conversation.
He didn't know if it was because of the crazily jolting cart or the empty treasury, but he didn't look very happy.
He stared ahead expressionlessly. No one knew what he was thinking.
Harry and Hermione quickly noticed the situation. They exchanged uneasy glances, their faces full of worry, and the atmosphere became silent.
Hermione poked Elwyn lightly, signaling him to turn around and look at Sirius.
Elwyn turned around in astonishment. He could completely understand Sirius's current state.
Although Sirius said that he did not care about the treasures and gold, it was after all the wealth that the Blake family had accumulated over the centuries. It had been passed down from generation to generation, and now it had all become the property of another family.
No matter who it was, they would not be happy about this.
Especially when the one distributing the wealth was Sirius's mother. She would rather trust his two cousins than leave anything for her own son.
If Ivan had encountered such a thing himself, he would have been extremely sad.
"Sirius!" Harry called out worriedly.
"I'm fine, I just recalled some unpleasant memories!" Sirius took a deep breath of cold air and pulled himself together to participate in their conversation. "Remus was right. The fire dragon's weakness is in its eyes. You can use an Eye Curse or other spells to attack that area and make them retreat in pain. Other than that, every fire dragon has a particularly fragile scale. If you want to slay a dragon … "
They chatted as they walked. Sirius seemed to have completely recovered.
Before returning to the Broken Cauldron for lunch, they decided to go to 36 Diagon Alley to take a look.
They left the main road and turned into a narrow, backlit street. The snow on the road had not been cleared for a long time, and the deepest part was knee-deep.
The street was very desolate. None of the shops were open.
Only a small, run-down shop was open. An old wizard with two large, light-colored eyes was sweeping the snow in front of the shop. The golden signboard above his head had already peeled off. It read: Ollivander, an excellent wand maker since 382 BC.
Elwyn was very surprised to see Mr. Ollivander.
He looked the same as the last time he saw him. There was no change at all.
"Good afternoon, Mr. Ollivander!" Everyone hurried to greet him.
"Good afternoon, everyone. It's a pleasure to meet you all!" Ollivander raised his head. His light-colored pupils swept across the faces of the five people. His gaze lingered on Elwyn and Harry the longest. Finally, it landed on Sirius. "Sirius Black, it's a pleasure to see you again. It's been more than 20 years since we last met. I thought I would never have the chance …"
"Oh, yes. I also thought I would never have the chance to return to Diagon Alley." Sirius said cheerfully. "You've read the recent reports. With the help of these three children, I've been proven innocent."
"Of course, of course!" Ollivander said happily. "East Aoki, twelve inches long. Good at using transformation magic, right?"
"That's right. But that wand was broken when I was captured by the Ministry of Magic twelve years ago." Sirius pulled out the wand and said regretfully. "That was a good wand. The one I have now is not as handy as the one before."
"Of course it's not handy. It's resisting your power!" Ollivander walked over and said softly. "This wand doesn't belong to you. I don't know where you got it from. It's the work of my grandfather. It's a very old craft. Elm wood and the nerves of a dragon. It's a little tough. In that era, materials from a dragon's body were very rare. Only the richest pure-blooded sorcerer families could afford it. "
Ollivander took the wand from Sirius and observed it carefully. He described the wand's qualities and history as if he was appreciating a piece of art.
"Mr. Ollivander?!"
"Oh, yes!" Ollivander returned the wand to Sirius. "This wand is great, but it doesn't suit you! If it's possible, I suggest you come to my shop to choose another wand. "
"I don't think that's necessary. I'm no longer a young sorcerer who just came of age. I can master any wand." Sirius said proudly.
"That's too bad!" Ollivander continued. "You should know that it's the wand that chooses the sorcerer. Using someone else's wand will affect your own power."
"Mr. Ollivander is right. You should get a new wand." Elwyn followed up. He knew how important a wand was to a sorcerer.
For a sorcerer, using someone else's wand would be very uncomfortable. It would affect the power of the spell and the transmission of magic. A powerful wand could even resist the will of the user.
In the original novel, Lord Voldemort's old wand resisted using a killing curse on its true master, Harry, for this reason. In the end, it died mysteriously.
It was the same for Sirius. In the original work, he had always been on the run. It was impossible for him to pick a wand that belonged to him. He must have been using this wand that belonged to one of his ancestors, just like now.
When he dueled with Bellatrix, because of the wand, he couldn't use his true power. In the end, he was defeated and lost his life.
For Sirius, in order to face the dangers that he would face in the future, it was necessary to get a new wand.
"Sirius, since Mr. Ollivander and Elwyn have said so, why don't you get a new wand?" Harry said with concern.
"There's no need. I can control this wand!" Sirius replied stubbornly.
"That's only temporary. As time passes, it will affect you more and more," Ollivander said softly. "The core of this wand is the nerves of a dragon. You should know that a dragon is a very powerful creature. They won't obey easily."
Hearing Ollivander's words, Harry hurriedly shouted, "Sirius!"
"Alright, alright, I'll come again when I have time in the future!" Sirius put his arm around Harry's shoulder and said in a gentle tone, "Don't you guys remember? We have to go to the shop now. Later, we have to go to the hospital to visit the boy from Weasley's family. We can't waste time here. "
