Hearing Charle's words, Dumbledore's movements suddenly froze, and even his expression, which was rarely out of control, showed a look of shock, awe, and doubt.
"You, you said you've already learned the Banishing Charm?"
Dumbledore's tone rose several notches.
"Charle, you should know that although the difficulty of this spell is slightly lower than the Patronus Charm, it's not much lower."
"Many older students at Hogwarts, after years of studying magic, still don't have the ability to cast this spell."
"And you haven't even entered Hogwarts yet, and this is your first time encountering magic..."
Charle, however, looked at Dumbledore and smiled.
"Headmaster, the reason is simple, I'm a genius."
"Geniuses have always been different. If I'm not mistaken, although you might not have been as good as me when you were young, you should have been far ahead of your peers."
"Geniuses often shock people, and you, Headmaster, should have a deep understanding of this."
After a brief moment of surprise, a smile appeared on Dumbledore's face.
Although I'm a genius, I might not have been as good as Charle when I was young?
That's an interesting way of putting it, something Dumbledore hadn't heard in many years.
However, this child in front of him was said to be the most talented student in the Muggle world, capable of achieving incredible feats in every subject he participated in.
Perhaps, it's really possible?
After a moment of hesitation, Dumbledore turned around and drew out a wand.
Unfortunately, it wasn't the Elder Wand that Charle was hoping to suck a few more mouthfuls from to fleece some wool, but the one Dumbledore had obtained from Ollivander's back in the day.
Charle couldn't tell the specific material of the wand's body and core, but there was no doubt that a wand that could match Dumbledore, especially the young Dumbledore, was by no means ordinary.
Taking a deep breath, Charle took the wand from Dumbledore's hand.
As soon as he held it, the wand showed its temper.
Charle could almost feel the resistance and disdain emanating from the wand.
Who are you?
I am Dumbledore's former wand.
Even if I was sealed away because Dumbledore obtained the Elder Wand, I am not something that ordinary people can use.
Charle raised his eyebrows, and looking up, he saw Dumbledore's smiling gaze.
Dumbledore blinked.
"Charle, this wand is the first one I ever used, carefully selected at Ollivander's."
"Well, I wasn't very good-tempered when I was young, so this wand that matched me also has a rather unruly personality."
"How does it feel?"
This wand seemed to be Dumbledore's test of Charle's so-called "genius" theory.
More of a genius than I was back then?
Then at least, it should be enough to make my former wand feel recognized, right?
In response, a smile of interest played on Charle's lips.
Wands have tempers too?
That's quite good, I just hope its resilience can match its temper.
Charle had previously taken a wand from Dak, but when he cast the Eternal Blazing Sun Spell, the wand couldn't withstand the intense magical fluctuations and developed cracks.
After Charle reluctantly cast a Laser Spell, that wand directly shattered into dust.
At this moment, Charle's eyes flickered slightly, falling on Dumbledore's former wand, and he murmured in his heart.
How about, I use you to cast an Eternal Blazing Sun Spell?
You have to hold on.
The next moment, the wand, which had been full of resistance, seemed to sense the magic power that Charle was gradually gathering and the terrifying spell he was about to cast with it.
From the tip of the wand, flowers and fireworks immediately gushed out, instantly forming a riot of colors.
If the wand could talk, it would probably be shouting "There is no second sun in the sky, Charle is the only sun in my heart."
Dumbledore, who was watching with interest from the side, was also surprised to see his original wand acting so shamelessly.
No, although it hasn't been used for many years, I remember the personality of this wand wasn't like this.
Spitting out flowers and fireworks, it always scoffed at such things, how did it become like this now?
Could it be that it's been neglected for too long and is lonely?
While Dumbledore was still surprised, feeling the obedient wand in his hand, Charle grinned, gripped it tightly, and with a flawless posture, cast the gesture for the Banishing Charm.
The next moment, an invisible and formless magical field, filled with a warm and safe feeling, spread out, enveloping the entire room.
Upon seeing this perfect Banishing Charm, Dumbledore couldn't help but exclaim.
A moment later, he looked at Charle with an expression of astonishment.
"Charle, I can't find a single flaw in this Banishing Charm of yours."
"Perfect, it's as if you've practiced it tirelessly for decades. I've never seen a more perfect Banishing Charm."
Dumbledore couldn't help but ask.
"How did you do it?"
Charle replied righteously.
"I was able to achieve all of this solely through my talent and hard work."
"Zero factors other than talent and hard work!"
Hearing these words, Dumbledore couldn't help but exclaim.
"Talent and hard work?"
"What astonishing talent."
In a daze, he seemed to recall the past, when the Headmaster of Hogwarts at the time seemed to look at him with the same eyes and said similar words to him.
Dumbledore hadn't expected that after so many years, one day he would be saying the same words to another young boy with the same look in his eyes.
Charle Evans before him was undoubtedly a magical genius who surpassed himself!
This filled Dumbledore's heart with a sense of excitement.
For so many years, he had been blaming himself for not guiding Tom Riddle properly back then, which ultimately led him to become Voldemort, a scourge to the magical world.
Now, he had met a student with even greater talent than Voldemort.
Perhaps, he could make up for the mistakes of the past and guide Charle Evans onto the right path.
Especially since Charle Evans was different from Voldemort back then; Voldemort was only interested in profound dark magic, but Charle was clearly more enthusiastic about Defense Against the Dark Arts.
Then he absolutely couldn't dampen Charle's enthusiasm. He had to guide him towards white magic and teach him the magic of love.
Dumbledore's gaze became fervent.
"Charle, I told you before that when you learned the Banishing Charm, I would teach you the more profound Patronus Charm."
"Now that you've done it, I can't break my promise. Watch carefully, this is the Patronus Charm that most adult wizards can't use in their entire lives..."
Dumbledore waved his wand, and Charle's heart also became incredibly excited.
If the Banishing Charm could deduce a powerful magic like Dust-Free Land, then what could the Patronus Charm deduce?
Also, what would his Patronus be?
