These people get paid to put on a show in the form of a duel. There are competitions and various tasks you complete and you get more money depending on how good of a show you put on while taking out your opponent. Charlotte Kettleburn, a seventh year student, has won a few medals in the Junior version." So if he wanted someone to talk to, she was one of the top choices. "It might not sound very appealing but a lot of places, especially well established places, need high levels of security and having a great grade in Defence helps. There's a section in the Ministry, under Law Enforcement as well, that deals with security. A lot of people would pay good money to have someone come and secure a building for them against potential threat."

Breathe.

"There are other options that isn't so Defence-based. Magizoology, Healing..... they require excellent knowledge of defensive magic so if either one of those appeal to you, it's something to consider." The list went on, really. "Defence is applicable in everyday life so it's important wherever you end up going." Though, of course, the boy still had some time to decide what he wanted to do - and choose his subjects accordingly - but it was nice that he had some kind of idea already.

Kyle nodded to everything as the professor spoke. Healer though... That sounded interesting. Though, Auror seemed good too. His brother had wanted to be an Auror, but wasn't selected. But for some reason he wouldn't say where in the Ministry he was working. He told their father, but that was it. "I think I'd like to either be a Healer or an Auror, Professor. Or maybe an Auror that is also good at healing, in case someone is hurt on the job." Was that a thing?

If he didn't cast anything? "That's a big if." Just saying. "I'd say so but it's also a good idea to be careful about it as well. Some people might frown upon wanting to practice outside of Hogwarts in the first place." Though, considering the fact that he wasn't an expert on the Ministry, he wasn't sure how useful this was.

Kyle pouted a little, but nodded. "Yes, sir. I'll keep my practice to Hogwarts."

But he did know a lot about spells so the next one was one he could do a better job of answering. "Interesting question, Kyle. And I think Lumos is one of those spells where if you tried to cast is wandlessly, it would still illuminate the tip of your wand. For example, if you're in a dark area and your wand has fallen and you can't seem to find it - and you can't see where you're searching either - casting Lumos wandlessly will illuminate the tip of your wand. In that sense, it'll show you exactly where your wand is." Did that make sense? "There are some spells you can't cast wandlessly no matter what. Prior Incantato - the spell reversal spell - is one of them because it requires you putting your wand on the tip of the other person's wand. The more complicated the spell, the more difficult it'll be to cast wandlessly, especially to the same strength as you would if you'd used a wand."

It all made sense, really. Though, having his fingertip light up woulda been cooler. That was alright, though. Needing to find a wand in the dark seemed to be a good thing. "How hard is accio usually to cast wandlessly, professor? Because strangely enough, it feels like it's one of those that I could almost cast if I could just get the magic to get out of my hand. The other one is the levitation spell. Both of them I feel like they are just getting to my fingertips."
