Amica asked with some doubt, "Are you able to make wand shafts?"
"Haven't you heard of it? Cough cough…" Vizette mimicked Ollivander's tone, "Oak, unicorn tail hair, eleven inches long, extremely hard."
He looked at Luna and winked. "How was it? Did I imitate him well?"
"I don't know…" Luna shook her head and smiled faintly, "You helped me choose my wand, I've never heard Mr. Ollivander say that."
Amica frowned and thought for a moment. "It seems... I did wield an oak wand, but he said it wasn't suitable for me, so he gave me a different one."
"Because Ollivander is so passionate about wands, he will do everything he can to choose the right wand for the wizard. It's a two-way selection process," Vizette explained.
"Mr. Ollivander has a good opinion of oak. Holders of oak wands often have keen intuition and an affinity for animals and plants."
"Is that so?" Amica felt a little confused but impressed. "You are Vizette Lovegood, right? My name is Amica Miller."
"It's a pleasure to meet you, Miss Miller," Vizette nodded.
Amica was a little excited. "I heard from Penelope Clearwater that you led the Ravenclaw team to win the Quidditch Trophy last year."
"My mom and dad are also Ravenclaws, and they've been talking about the Quidditch trophy for a while now. Even though their crest is an eagle, they can't win the trophy…"
"Penelope Clearwater." Vizette looked to the other side of the long table, where Cho Chang and Penelope Clearwater were chatting and laughing.
Perhaps noticing his gaze, the two of them gave him a thumbs-up and gestured at him for a while before covering their mouths and laughing.
"Okay…" Vizette coughed lightly, "I just played according to the captain's tactics. This is the result of everyone's hard work."
...
"How did the morning classes go?" Vizette and Luna walked side by side back to the Ravenclaw common room.
After thinking for a moment, Luna said softly, "Professor Snape is quite serious, and his voice is rather distinctive..."
Vizette asked curiously, "Special?"
"Yes! A special voice, suitable for storytelling? Like the kind of unique stories…" Luna nodded, "Dad will tell me stories from Beedle the Bard's Tales."
"He would tell me stories like 'The Fountain of Fair Fortune,' 'The Wizard and the Hopping Pot,' 'The Tale of the Three Brothers,' and 'Babbity Rabbitty and Her Cackling Stump,' and he would deliberately omit one story…"
Vizette recalled the various stories in Beedle the Bard's Tales and had an answer in mind: "The missing story is 'The Hairy-Hearted Wizard'?"
Compared to the other stories in the collection, "The Hairy-Hearted Wizard" is comparable to the original edition of Grimm's Fairy Tales.
"The Hairy-Hearted Wizard" tells the story of a handsome, wealthy, and intelligent young wizard who doesn't want to be bound by emotions like the people around him.
The wizard came up with a plan: he used dark magic to extract the heart and imprison it, becoming extremely cold-hearted and indifferent even to the death of his parents.
It wasn't until he heard his servants laughing that he proposed to a witch in order to prove that he was not alone. He even took the witch to the deepest part of the castle to show her the imprisoned heart.
To convince the witch that he still had love, the wizard retracted the hairy heart back into his body, only to discover that the heart had been affected by dark magic and had become savage and violent.
The male wizard went mad, not only killing the witch and taking her fresh heart, but also cutting open his chest and taking out his own hairy heart;
In the end, the male wizard, holding two hearts, was unable to complete the final heart transplant and died on the witch's broken body.
Undoubtedly, this is a chilling story, and it's perfectly normal that Xenophilius left it untold.
"I secretly read that story…" Luna lowered her voice, sharing her little secret with Vizette, "Dad didn't find out!"
"If Professor Snape were to tell this story and then use that magic to preserve his voice... I think Professor Snape's voice would be perfect!"
Vizette nodded repeatedly, admitting that Snape's deep voice was perfectly suited to this kind of horror story.
"In today's History of Magic class, Professor Binns mentioned an organization called 'WWN,' which stands for Wizarding Wireless Network."
"WWN originated from war. Wizards at the time created magical radio stations in order to resist the Muggles and imitate the technology of radio."
"Once the magical world is at peace again, WWN will remove the magical codes used to keep it secret and open it to all of England, where you can listen to programs using the magical radio."
Anthony had a magic radio, which he occasionally took out on weekends to listen to a band called "The Weird Sisters".
This is a fairly famous band, although the name is "Weird Sisters", all the members are male.
"WWN! Mom and Dad used to listen to Magic Time," Luna recalled. "But then the radio broke, and Dad never bought a new one."
She let out a soft sigh. "Perhaps Professor Snape could work at WWN and become a fantastic radio host."
Seeing Luna's serious expression, Vizette's tone was somewhat uncertain, "He probably won't give up teaching at Hogwarts, will he?"
"I don't know either." Luna shrugged. "I think he likes Potions, but he doesn't really like Potions…"
"How should I describe it? Like firewhisky? They need firewhisky to help them fall asleep, but they also have to bear the pain that comes with drinking it."
"Professor Snape's potion-making steps are a little different from the steps in the textbook." Vizette understood what Luna meant.
"Compared to the steps in the potions textbook, Professor Snape's potion-making steps are better, optimizing the entire potion-making process..."
"Would he be willing to compile a new textbook?" Luna asked. "You said before that Professor Snape was a Potions Master."
"Professor Snape was unwilling." Vizette shook his head. "I asked him about it before out of curiosity… and he refused."
It was a private lesson on the weekend before Halloween. He hadn't fully figured out Snape's way of doing things, and because of this incident, the private lesson ended early that day.
As long as you follow Snape's instructions, ask fewer questions and do more, he is still very willing to share his knowledge.
Luna's eyes became slightly misty, as if she were recalling something, "Professor Snape's Wrackspurts appear and disappear intermittently..."
"When he's lecturing, those gnomes come out. But when he starts patrolling the classroom, they fly away."
Vizette tentatively asked, "If points are deducted, will we still see the Wrackspurts?"
"Not a single one!" Luna pondered for a moment, then gently shook her head. "But there will be so many Wrackspurts around those students!"
