He decided he could just observe slowly once she arrived.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So, he personally wrote an admission letter and sent it out via owl.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At the breakfast table in the Granger household, the letter soon arrived.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>By now Hermione had already recovered her usual liveliness.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She was chatting with Arthur about all sorts of magical topics, while Ranni barely got a word in. After all, she hadn't yet touched the magic of this world.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course, she was aloof to begin with, never much of a talker. She simply sat there quietly eating her breakfast, then asked Arthur for another serving after finishing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thanks to her divine body, no matter how much she ate she could digest it instantly—and never gain weight.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Last night she had heard her lord say that in this world there were thousands upon thousands of delicacies, more numerous than the stars in the sky.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Well, what more was there to say? Eat to her heart's content.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To enjoy food while also replenishing her strength—she had already fallen in love with the feeling.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After receiving the letter, the Granger family decided that since they were free today, they would all head to Diagon Alley together for shopping.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The main reason was to buy Ranni's school supplies.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course, they also needed the second-year textbooks for the other three.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Though Arthur's \"iPad\" had already stored a massive number of books, he declared with wealthy arrogance that he would buy physical copies anyway—just for the collection.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Besides, this semester's Defense Against the Dark Arts professor had changed again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And this new professor had his own requirements—he demanded they buy Gilderoy Lockhart's books.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Naturally, since those were the books he himself had written.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Though they were nothing more than impractical travelogues, he didn't care. His real purpose in coming to Hogwarts was simply to build his reputation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As for this fraud who had mastered the Memory Charm to perfection, Arthur didn't hold any special opinion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Being able to coax others into sharing their adventurous tales, then erase their memories and turn those stories into his own—that was still a skill.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At the very least, he had real talent in writing. Not everyone could polish travel and adventure anecdotes into bestselling books.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Unfortunately, his biggest mistake was choosing to serve as the Defense Against the Dark Arts professor.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That position was cursed by Voldemort—no one had ever lasted a full year.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Merlin knew how many professors Dumbledore had already changed over the years, and how many of them had safely stepped down.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Take Quirrell from last term—he was now nothing but a pile of ashes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After the five of them finished buying their various supplies, Arthur decided to take Ranni for a wand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Though he had a heap of wands stuffed away in his system space, those were unconventional compared to the wizarding world's standards.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He planned to get Ranni a proper one for her everyday spellcasting.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As for the real battle, Ranni already had the Carian Regal Scepter—a gift from Arthur the night before.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the Elden Ring, there were several powerful staves fit for sorcerers. For example, the Lusat's Glintstone Staff he was using now, a formidable wand he had found in Sellia, Town of Sorcery in Caelid.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course, Arthur doubted anyone in this world could ever force Ranni, a demigod, to unleash her full strength.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Giving her the Carian Scepter was simply returning it to its rightful owner—it belonged to the Carian royal family in the first place.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As a gift in return, Ranni had given him the Dark Moon Greatsword.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was said that every Carian queen gifted her consort a greatsword of the moon.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ranni's symbol was the cold, dark full moon, so her sword was called the Dark Moon Greatsword.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Understanding its meaning, Arthur spent the entire day in blissful spirits.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Whatever Ranni wanted, he waved his hand generously and bought it outright.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But at Ollivander's Wand Shop, a small incident occurred.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ranni's magical power was simply too strong—ordinary wands couldn't withstand it at all.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She had already broken more than ten wands.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet Ollivander was a stubborn old man. He always insisted that the wand chose the wizard.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Over so many years, every wizard had found a wand that suited them in his shop.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He swore he would find one for Ranni as well.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Half an hour later, he regretted it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His shop now had fifty more broken wands.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Arthur watched with great amusement.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He couldn't help thinking—would this old man get angry and demand compensation for the losses?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Not that money was an issue. Even if each wand was seven Galleons, that was still less than four hundred.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But he could see that Ranni was already getting impatient.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>These wands weren't even as sturdy as an astrologer's starter staff. She had no interest in wasting more time here.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sensing her thoughts, Arthur stepped forward and interrupted Ollivander, who was still rummaging for wands.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Mr. Ollivander, do you accept custom wand orders?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Oh! Child, I've said it countless times—the wand chooses the wiz—… wait, what kind of material did you want?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ollivander had been about to impatiently refuse, but then his eyes landed on the golden branch in Arthur's hand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was unlike any material he had ever seen—more wondrous even than the millennia-old woods he had handled before.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Please, let me make a wand out of that!\" Ollivander's eyes locked onto the branch, unblinking.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You may—but the core must be crafted from the rarest feather of a Moon-Beast,\" Arthur added calmly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For the Moon-Beast carried a tuft of feathers capable of absorbing moonlight—perfect for Ranni.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Though Ranni didn't know what a Moon-Beast was, the name alone told her it was tied to the moon.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her heart rippled with quiet emotion. She silently walked to Arthur's side and took his hand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hermione, watching from the side, puffed out her cheeks in jealousy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"No problem. The feather of a Moon-Beast isn't so… precious. Are you sure you want to use such a common material?\" Ollivander asked reluctantly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He wanted to craft the very finest wand—he didn't wish to use something so ordinary.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"No need. What's suitable is always the best, isn't it?\" Arthur refused gently.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His words stunned Ollivander for a moment. Then the old man nodded firmly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yes, child. You've reminded me—suitability matters more than rarity. As thanks, I'll craft this wand for free.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Knowing the old man's temper, Arthur didn't argue. He simply placed four hundred Galleons on the counter.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Thank you for your kindness. Consider this compensation for the broken wands.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Since he wasn't short on money, there was no point in haggling.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ollivander didn't refuse either. He knew full well this was essentially payment for the custom wand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Those dozens of shattered wands were mass-produced stock, hardly worth much anyway.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With that, Arthur and his companions had finished their business in Diagon Alley.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before leaving, Arthur stopped by the large bookstore next to the Leaky Cauldron.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He bought a massive stack of books on world history.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ranni's eyes shone when she saw them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To understand a world, the best place to start was always its history.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Visit my patreon for more chapters\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Advance 30+ Chapters Available\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>patreon.com\u002FWhiteDevil7554\u003C\u002Fp>",1215,"2026-06-06T04:19:46.381Z",1,"novelbin.me","b1aa37360e277a8a4d3c74517bf6d3d084bbea4c49ab441f3e35fcc7b989e241","starting-at-hogwarts-logging-into-elden-ring-chapter-67","starting-at-hogwarts-logging-into-elden-ring-chapter-65",281,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fstarting-at-hogwarts-logging-into-elden-ring-cover.jpg"]
