Draco laughed. "You should have started asking me about Theo. We're not just from the same place. We're friends. He lived at my house for a while, and we were in the same house at Hogwarts. But to answer your question, you can technically learn on your own, but the ones who can afford tutors are also the ones who want to send their kids to school to make connections. My father was on the board just so that he could keep an eye on the curriculum."
He watched with interest, wondering if they were just projections or if hurting one would hurt the original. "I have a better question. If it can't take powerful magic, how it is going to handle powerful Muggle weapons. I hear some of those weapons can cause extreme destruction." The picture that John had painted was not a pretty one.
Draco was too curious not to ask. "This training that everyone is talking about, what would it even entail? Because where I'm from, I cast one spell and a person is dead. The hardest part is reaching the darkest parts of you and not everyone has the power, but if you do, then it's just one spell. Don't get me wrong, we have duels, with rules, but in a battle, it's mostly inattention that gets you."
