What happened in the charm class spread all over Hogwarts Castle.

Whether it was a senior, or Gryffindor, or Slytherin, all heard the gossip.

In the spell class, a first-year student of Ravenclaw house, while demonstrating the fire curse, directly summoned a vast flame to cover the roof of the entire classroom.

The blazing flame made all the people in the classroom embarrassed, and everyone was severely dehydrated. Among them were two Hufflepuffs who were slightly burned.

In the end, even Dumbledore was summoned and hurriedly went to check all the students and found that there was nothing serious, and he sighed with relief.

In the lower grades, this incident only caused ridicule from the other two houses, but in the upper grades, it seemed incredible, and they were surprised how a first-year student could possess such a strong magical power.

But generally, only professors are naturally aware of the information revealed from this seemingly unimportant matter.

Fire curse, a spell whose power depends entirely on whether the caster's magic power is strong or not. To create such an effect, the level of the magical power can be considered good enough even among the adult wizards.

But Wilkes was only an eleven-year-old child!

In the wizarding world, almost all magical powers of wizards rely on diligent practice and natural growth to become stronger.

Although some potions can amplify magical powers, they are costly.

However, how could Wilks, who was only eleven years old, possess such a strong magic power? Kept all the professors silent.

Afterward, due to what happened in the charm class, Dumbledore approved the afternoon flying class to take place on another day to give the students of Ravenclaw and Hufflepuff a rest.

In this regard, Wilkes was pleased; in the afternoon, he could have a lot of time to read potion books, looking forward to earning some money.

At the same time, I also wanted to try the other enhancements that the previous night's "Devour the Soul" made him stunned, apart from the magic.

...

At midnight, on the top of the Hogwarts Clock Tower, Dumbledore, the headmaster of Hogwarts, was waiting for someone.

Wearing a silver-gray robe and flowing white hair swinging in the wind, Dumbledore's bright blue eyes have been staring at Hogwarts Castle at night, thinking about something all the time.

Da da da…

It wasn't until the sound of the downstairs heard in his ears that Dumbledore came up with a person walking up the spiral ladders.

"Severus," Dumbledore whispered to the man behind him, but still staring at Hogwarts in the night in a daze.

Snape, dressed in a dark wizard robe, slowly walked a few steps behind Dumbledore, stopped, and stared at the wizard in front of him indifferently, silent.

Dumbledore was the greatest wizard of the century, but Snape was not wholly loyal to him. He only had to assist him.

"How is the investigation? Did you gain anything, Severus?" Finally, Dumbledore broke the calm.

He had previously entrusted Snape to inquire about some things, including pieces of information about Wilkes.

"Nothing, but... I know some interesting things, such as... Wilkes's dazzling record in Knockrurn Alley." Snape said indifferently, just describing the result.

Dumbledore was very calm when he heard it and did not ask about Wilkes's past. At least during his understanding of this time, Wilkes was not a bad boy.

Of course, he is not a good boy. Wilkes can always cause something to discuss among the professors.

Staring at Dumbledore, who was silent, Snape's eyes flashed, and finally, he could not help but utter in fear:

"No one knows how Wilkes improved his magic power or even where he learned it. In the Ministry of Magic's pieces of information, there is no record of Wilkes possessing and using a magic wand before the age of eleven. …"

Snape became more and more puzzled, even when he said the last sentence, he could not believe it:

"You know what this means, right? He was already able to cast magic with the power of the top spell without a wand when he was ten years old. It's a..."

"An incomprehensible and terrible kid," Snape said without exaggeration, but the content was still exaggerated to make him calm.

Listening to Wilkes's unbelievable achievements, Dumbledore's anxiety rose sharply, but his instinct told him that Wilkes was just a kid who wanted to learn magic.

Both of them were silent in the place, and no one knew how Wilkes had such a strong magical power in his young body.

What's more, he did not know how he managed to control spells when others in his age were crying like children, and he had reached the level of being able to cast spells without a wand, at least as an adult wizard.

"Perhaps..." A flash of doubt flashed in Snape's indifferent eyes, and he murmured: "He may not be controlled by anyone at all."

Snape already felt a little bit that even Voldemort might not be able to control him.

Maybe Wilkes just came...to learn magic, which sounds a bit absurd.

With more and more investigations in Wilkes, Snape felt that there were more and more things he did not know so that when he finally looked back, he found nothing.

Silence filled the place, like the silent night sky at this moment.

Tonight, no one got the answer that they wanted.
