……

Under Dudley's watchful gaze, the system identified the wands within sight and, based on Dudley's [Exceptional Wizard Bloodline], detected the corresponding compatibility data.

His earlier guess was correct; any new wand that hadn't been used by a new owner was rated D by the system.

Only after recognizing a master will the rating increase with the nourishment of magic and the use of spells.

With one exception, which may or may not be, there was the SSS-rank Elder Wand in Dumbledore's hand outside the shop.

One of the Three Holy Relics of the Dead, a powerful wand said to have been created by the Grim Reaper.

It's unclear whether it was already SSS-rank when it was first created, or whether it was nurtured by the power of the Grim Reaper after its creation, turning something rotten into something magical, and thus rising from D-rank to SSS-rank.

This is a secret that is difficult to verify. Dudley is only slightly curious. His most important task now is to find the one that best suits him among thousands of wands.

He now possesses two wands.

First, there's the C-grade Digger wand, which has a 62% compatibility with him, and this number is slowly increasing.

This is because his magic is far stronger than Digg's. After undergoing a high-intensity infusion of magic and the use of spells, this wand, which does not reject changing masters, has abandoned darkness and turned to light, changing its object of recognition.

Aside from innate affinity, powerful wizards can gradually shape their wands into their own form, provided that the captured wands don't act out of character.

Some wands with extremely high loyalty will refuse to be used by wizards other than their master. Forcing them to be used will weaken the power of the spell or produce some unnecessary effects.

This happened when Hagrid used Hagrid's umbrella wand.

Secondly, there's the B-grade damaged Quirrell Wand, which only has a 23% compatibility with him. Using it would be nerve-wracking, as the spell might mutate or even backfire at any moment.

For Dudley, this wand has fusion value, but its practical use is negligible.

Therefore, in order to save time and fusion costs, and to obtain the perfect [Wandless Spellcasting] ability by fusing wands with minimal expense when fusion opportunities are plentiful, Dudley still needs to purchase a new D-grade wand with high compatibility from Ollivander's Wand Shop.

If he ultimately decides not to attend Hogwarts and does not seek new fusion opportunities, this new wand may still become Dudley's primary wand in the future.

"What do I see? Harry Potter! You've come! I'm so glad you've come! I've been waiting for you for so long!"

Just as Dudley was searching everywhere for a new wand that perfectly suited him, and Harry was also looking around curiously, an old wizard with silver-white eyes poked his head out from the narrow inner room of the shop.

The previous minor earthquake forced even the excellent wand maker, Mr. Garrick Ollivander, to retreat to a more protective inner room for a short while.

Earlier, he had met Dudley and Harry while drinking at the Leaky Cauldron.

Barring any unforeseen circumstances, the renowned Savior will arrive later today at his wand shop, which holds an absolute monopoly in the British magical world, to purchase his first wand.

An earthquake occurred unexpectedly, and he thought something bad might happen, but thankfully, the savior still came.

Harry glanced at his cousin, and seeing that his cousin wasn't going to speak first, he answered himself, "Hello, Mr. Ollivander. My cousin and I are here to buy wands!"

"Of course! Most of the wizards who come to me are here to buy wands! Come on! Let me take your measurements!"

As Ollivander spoke, he took a retractable measuring tape, walked around the counter, and came to Harry's side.

Then, the measuring tape began to automatically measure Harry's arm length, leg length, height, and even the distance between his eyes.

"Mr. Potter, which hand do you prefer?"

"Right hand! Sir!"

While taking measurements, Ollivander asked Harry a question that was more reasonable than simply measuring dimensions.

God knows why you have to weigh and measure so many things when choosing a wand.

Harry asked curiously, only to be told that it was a special technique belonging to the Ollivander family.

After measuring a bunch of data that he didn't know if it was useful or not, Ollivander climbed the ladder.

On the wooden shelf filled with numerous wand cases, they searched, pulled out wands, and gave them to Harry to test. After receiving unsuitable feedback, they continued searching for new wands for Harry...

It must be said that, although the principle is unclear, none of the wands Ollivander chose for Harry had a compatibility of less than 75% with Harry.

Dudley can use the system to know the compatibility between the [weak wizard bloodline] he possesses and a variety of wands. This bloodline originates from Harry's blood, and its compatibility data can roughly reflect Harry's compatibility data.

While focusing on Harry's wand experiment, Dudley's extensive search also yielded results.

Without bothering Ollivander, Dudley identified his target and leaped up, grabbing a wand box from the top east side of the shelf.

[Poplar Wood Wand (Grade D), with a dragon heartstring core, 13 inches long, 98% compatibility with its user]

There is no wand with a higher compatibility than this one; this is based on data calculated using the [Exceptional Wizard Bloodline] obtained by fusing with the magic stone.

The Philosopher's Stone is an alchemical item, not the blood of a wizard or magical creature.

The wizard bloodline obtained by fusing with the magic stone is not only extremely powerful, but also purer.

If Dudley was born with wizarding blood, the wand that would most likely be compatible with him would also be this one.

With a 98% compatibility rate, after a few days of nurturing with magic, it will reach 100% compatibility. Then, by fusing it, Dudley will gain the perfect [Wandless Spellcasting] ability.

Dudley got his desired wand, and Harry picked out his destined wand.

"Hollywood wand, with a phoenix feather core, 11 inches long."

Ollivander looked at the wand in Harry's hand, which was gleaming with gold, and said with surprise and excitement in his silver eyes, "It's powerful and perfect for you, Mr. Potter."

Even more remarkably, it has a twin brother, whose core is made from the same phoenix's tail feather. That wand is... in the hands of that wizard whose name is too sinister to mention, a wizard who is wicked, but incredibly powerful!

"You mean Voldemort?"

Harry frowned and asked without beating around the bush.
