Luther smiled at the Professor's words of encouragement and said "Thank you, Professor.". Then he tried once again. "Arundo!" And the arrow whizzed towards the target. BULLSEYE. Well, not exactly, but it was on target.

While trying to get as many arrows on the target as he can, his thoughts drifted to his mother's journals. To be precise, a part about non-verbal casting. Thinking 'You miss 100% of the chances you don’t take.' Luther thought 'Arundo!' as clearly as he could. Then... nothing. Not even a faint shimmer. Then he kept trying, however, it didn't work even once for some reason. Giving up for the moment, Luther cast Arundo verbally once again. At least this was on target.

When his arm started to ache, deciding to take a break he turned to Professor, raised his hand and asked "Professor, how does non-verbal casting differ from verbal casting? Besides the whole saying the incantation part, of course."
