He had read about a protective charm that acted as a sereget for the damage. The spell incurred all the damage and usually was destroyed, but it helped to save you from the curse cast at you. It even worked on the Avada Kadavra.
His other trick involved a spell that created a "black hole", but only for magic. It sucked up curses and made them disappear. If one cast it to the right or left of themselves, all curse that were directed at them would be pulled away by the vortex.
He got his wand out of his holister and stood ready for the lesson.....
The sound of click-clacking heels loudly announced Lexi Carlton's presence. She wasn't in defense mode, so she'd opted to just keep her regular footwear on rather than going back to her quarters for some other pair. With her wand still inside its holster, Lexi headed across the room that housed the dueling arena.
"Hello, Mr. Smith," she greeted, noticing the way the boy stood ready for...anything and everything, pretty much.
"You can relax. I'm not going to sneak attack you or anything like that. We'll talk first about what spells you'd like to learn then the dueling will begin." "I've brought someone along," she said, turning to see if the girl was behind her...or even next to her, maybe.
"I thought it might be better to observe as you practice, so I won't be dueling today." Again she paused, waiting for some sign that Nymphy's future dueling partner had joined them.
