Chapter 75: Flitwick Is a Good Professor
When the bell rang, Professor Flitwick called Regulus back.
"Mister Black, a moment please."
Students filed out. Avery caught Regulus's eye and mouthed 'I'll wait outside,' then left with the rest.
Soon only Flitwick and Regulus remained.
Flitwick hopped down from his stack of books and walked over to Regulus.
He had to crane his neck to look up at the student who towered over him. The usual buoyant cheer was gone — replaced by something serious and earnest.
"Your question just now," Flitwick said, "reminded me of the question you asked in your very first class — about the essence of the Levitation Charm, about magical distribution and gravitational lift."
Regulus inclined slightly, listening.
"Back then, you were after the principle — the why." Flitwick continued.
