Deciding On The Next Course of Action

AUTHOR'S NOTE: POV IS CHANGED IN THIS CHAPTER

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Brax's father shook his head seeing his son's impatience to perform his first ritual. But suddenly he remembered something and called out Brax saying,

"Brax, you can perform the ritual later. You have an entire day to do so. But first, you need to get a training Wand."

Listening to his father Brax stopped what he was doing and his eyes immediately lit up and decided to perform the ritual after he got his training wand. With the training wand, he can finally practice magic. With those thoughts, he turned towards his father and with a laugh replied,

"Oh! my bad. I completely forgot about the wand in my eagerness of doing my ritual. Well, I will do the ritual after getting the wand."

His father nodded listening to his son's reply and waved his wand. Immediately seven wands materialized in front of Brax. These Seven wands are the training wands which the Summerking family commissioned from a famous wandmaker to train their young ones. After going through every wand Brax chose a wand which was about 13 inches and is made by some redwood. Among all the seven wands this wand felt right in his hands. He was drooling inside about the fact he can finally cast some spells. Brax knew this is just a temporary wand. He will have a wand suited for him when he reaches the age of eleven.

After getting his wand Brax thought for a while and made a plan for himself. There were around 8 rituals that need to be done seven times each. Every month he can only perform seven Rituals. So in total, it will take him 8 months to finish the entire set of rituals. First, he decided to finish the Astral Takeover Ritual this month. So that he can start practicing the next levels of occlumency. Also now that he got a wand now, he can start practicing Legilimency.

Brax was bought out of his musing by his father's voice,

"Brax since you got your training wand, I will give you access to one of the advance session of the library. So that you can learn other branches of magic that are taught in Hogwarts. I am only doing this because of how responsible you were in the past 4 Years. I hope you will not break my faith Brax."

Brax was now on Cloud 9 as his day was getting better and better. He can finally learn some spells. Brax was bored as fuck learning just the theory. It was only the Occlumency training which was keeping his hands full and keeping him away from boredom. He kept his excitement to himself and assured his father,

"Don't worry father I will definitely work hard and try to keep myself away from the stuff which is beyond me."

His assurance satisfied Brax's father who gave a smile and advised him,

"Always remember this Brax there is no such thing as dark and light magic. Only the purpose for which you use your magic matters. Never discriminate knowledge and decide which suits you better. and also ask Brood to show you the training room. It is very well equipped to practice magic. Cast spells only in this room."

Brax nodded his head to tell his father that he understood. Brax never gave a fuck about what magic is called. For him, magic is just magic. He will not fall in the trap of discriminating magic as dark and light. Now that he got the training wand, Brax did his first ritual. He was done with his ritual by the Afternoon and was exhausted by the end. So on his father's orders, Brood moved him to his room to let him rest. Brax slept the entire day.

The next day Brax who looked refreshed and with training wand in his hand rushed to the library to learn new spells. After combing for 2 hours through the entire section of the library to which he was provided access to, He picked books on Four subjects. It tempted Brax for a moment to ask his father permission for other sections of library too. But thinking for a time he decided to bring this up with his father after finishing these four subjects.

Battle transfiguration

Charms

DADA

Runes

There were only around 3 books on Battle Transfiguration. But what astonished him was that Gellert Grindelwald wrote these books. They contained the Entire Transfiguration subject along with how to use it in battle. How was his family able to get their hands on these books was beyond Brax's Comprehension.

But charms and DADA are much larger subjects in content compared with Battle Transfiguration. There are around 10 books on Charms ranging from beginner level books to advanced level books. For DADA there are around 12 books again ranging from beginner to advance written by various authors. He also got 7 books on RUNES ranging from an intermediate level to the advanced level.

After briefly going over their Introduction, He concluded that even though Battle transfiguration is not as vast as the remaining subjects. But it was much more complex and hard to master. Brax Knew he can master CHARMS AND DADA as long he spent time. But BATTLE TRANSFIGURATION requires much more than spending mere time and Brax was up to the challenge.

But he also able to get some other interesting books in the library. There was a book on how to train the body. Some thin Brax required to achieve the full potential of his body. He also found a book on Dueling. Unfortunately, he didn't find any book on animagus transformation. After seeing books on transfiguration he thought that the library may have a book regarding animagus. But alas! that was not the case.

Gathering all the books Brax called Brood and asked him to move the books to the training room. Brood popped off the library carrying the books with him to place them in the training room. After that Brax went to his room and took hold of the Book on mind arts and Eye of Astral and decide to take them to the training room. He decided to spend his entire day in the training room and only use his room for sleeping.

Brax who decided on his plans again called Brood to take him to the training room. Brood following Brax's command started leading him towards the training room. Brax while following Brood was daydreaming on casting some cool spells.
