So, basically, yes. Non-magical methods were fine, which was helpful. The most Daxton could really do with a wand at the moment was send weird zaps at things, people, or animals. It did not require verbalising any incantation, so he supposed that meant it wasn't an official spell. Either way, there was only so much help it would be in a confrontation. Not that it would be completely useless.
And not that it really mattered anyway, as Daxton would not be duelling yet, and had not entered himself into the tournament. But that did not mean he did not want to learn more, for future reference. In any case, using non-magical methods did not mean getting in close proximity to someone. Trapping an opponent was always possible, as long as you were always thinking a few moves ahead, like in chess. That was how Daxton liked to think of duelling so far.
Still, he did wish he could say the incantations, he wished he could cast the spells, and he wanted to take part in the tournament. But he could not do any of those things, and that was the end of it. It was frustrating, it was annoying, and it was one of the first times Daxton had felt truly limited by being non-verbal. Sure, sometimes it got frustrating when he wanted to say something and could no, but this was on a whole different level. This was something that truly bothered him, thought Daxton planned on keeping that thought firmly to himself.
It seemed as though the meeting had barely even started, when already it was called to an end. Daxton stared at Dakest, and then looked down at his own feet. So why, why had he needed to wear his shoes and socks for this meeting? For sitting and listening and grabbing a uniform and leaving again? There did not seem to be any reason for it at all.
So he took them off again, now the meeting was officially over and he would not technically be breaking any rules. The hall was a little too busy for Daxton's liking, so he hung back until there was a gap in the throng of students collecting uniforms, and darted forwards to seek out some armour that would fit him. His urgency to get in and out quickly meant that he made quick work of the task, and as soon as he could something that fit, the Ravenclaw took his armour and his footwear and left the training hall, resolving to come back later when it was not so busy to check the challenge board. It would likely be something he would not be able to do, but he was still curious.
