Chapter 91: Flowing time

'Man , where's Colin Creevey when you need him?' Nick thought regretfully after Draco got out of having this moment saved forever. After lunch Nick went back to the workshop to practice illusion spells for the rest of the day. Time passed by after that and before he knew it October had arrived as he simply lived his life day by day. By this point in time Nick had made a total of ten other rings and had improved his illusion work considerably. He wasn't a master of the field by any means but he at least knew his way around the subject.-

Out of all the rings he made all but two of them were melted down into raw materials afterwards. They were simply things such as a ring that could serve as a lamp or one that could ward away toads. Of the two rings that Nick kept one of them was a plain silver ring that was fashioned in the shape of an eye with the band of it being a simple one. This was the ring that Snape had commissioned and was made with all the knowledge Nick currently possesses on illusions and how to discern them.-

He named it the eye of truth and got an uncommon grade for it though the system clearly valued it highly as he got 34 points for making it. Snape of course required a test before being satisfied with the ring when it was presented to him. It was a simple affair as he simply put the ring on and had Nick use a variety of illusions , both obvious and not. The ring reacted to each and every single one of them which was satisfactory for the man as he paid the fee for the work and went about his business with a new accessory.-

[RING NAME: Eye of truth

Grade: UNCOMMON

Abilities: Autosizing , illusion detection , area of perception

Description: A ring created for the sole purpose of detecting illusion and warning it's owner of them.

System appraisal: A fine creation made by an up and coming ring smith.]

The second ring that was kept however was entirely an accident on Nicks part as he had wondered what would happen if he put his understanding of the entire world into a ring. The answer as it turns out was that he failed the forging utterly as the amount of power required to imbue a ring with such an extreme topic was far being his current means. He failed to imbue his understanding of the world fully onto the ring he made but the failed creation itself was enough to cause Nicks jaw to hit the floor.-

[RING NAME: N/A

Grade: RARE

Abilities: Autosizing , broken land , corrupt space , twisted time , lifeless , toxin air , putrid waters , dim sun and stars , shattered moon.

Description: A horrendous ring that represents the failed attempt to create a world and as such will erase an area of the real world 25 feet wide upon coming in contact with magic.

System appraisal: A failed creation that holds a terrible power made by an up and coming ring smith.]

Nick wanted to melt this ring down very badly as it's mere existence was a threat way beyond his means to control. Instead of keeping the dreadful thing Nick instead found an opportunity to take it into the lake before tossing a spell at it from far away. He broke out in goosebumps when the spell struck the ring as there was no sound nor ominous feeling. The 25 foot area simply vanished in an instant and the lake water collapsed to fill the void left behind.-

None the less Nick still received a heft amount of a 112 points for the creation of the ring. Add on the points he got from his other creation during this time and he now held 463 total points to be used. 'I suppose I have been neglecting the system a bit so lets see how many mystery tickets I can get.' He thought shortly after waking up on October first. He made his way to the workshop and smoothly entered before locking the door behind him.-

'Ok so the first ticket cost 100 points.' he purchased the ticket and the price shifted up by fifty points for the next. After purchasing another ticket the price rose again to a new one set for 225. 'The price increases by half of what the current price is after each purchase it seems , this will get expensive fast.' he thought seriously. This of course meant that he could only afford two tickets as he was missing a bit of twelve points for the next one. Nick took the first ticket and tore it causing a familiar mist to fill the entire room before coalescing into a roulette wheel.-

Nick spun the wheel eagerly "BUUUURRR!" the unique sound of the pointer flicking each of the wheels spokes filled the air for two whole minutes as to wheel spun. Soon the wheel started to slow until it stopped on a tiny wedge and the wheel burst into mist again before rushing into Greed. Nick paid the system no attention for the moment and tore the other ticket in half causing a repeat of the previous event to appear. Once the roulette was totally done Nick finally looked at the notifications.

Chapter 92: Prizes and classes

[YOU RECIEVED : 1 Astral hammer , 1 Immortal blood(book)]

Nick rather unhappy with these results as he could have purchased both of these things for a quarter of the price he paid for the tickets. The first item was the special hammer he used while he was in the astral workshop that allowed a vastly easier time when it came to channeling his spirit into the hammer. It was nice of course but he didn't need it strictly speaking in order to do his work. The second item was a book about vampires in the world of tamriel and while great if he wanted to make a vampire specific ring was otherwise useless to him as an elf or even a human.-

Still he had already paid for the tickets so he may as well use the stuff he got to the best of his abilities. He replaced his current hammer with the new one which was way more noticeable with it's silver color and faint ethereal appearance. Nick shrugged it off since even if someone were to ask he could simply say he found it in the castle. No one could argue with that since there were a ton of things in the castle that were unknown even after people have explored it for the last thousand years.-

Besides that was the immortal blood book he got which he cracked open for a quick read. It wasn't a bad short story all things considered as it gave detail about the various abilities that vampires in that world had. But it was indeed a very short story since it only had a total of seven pages before it was over. 'That ending is fun to read.' Nick thought when he got to the part where Movarth was betrayed by the person teaching him about vampires as they turned out to be a vampire themselves.-

Nick had already finished the book of fundamentals from the "ancient" section during this last couple weeks. In it he didn't discover any more unexpected revelations but merely had the knowledge he had obtained from the normal books broadened and clarified. He had tested his spell cast proficiency during this time as well and found he was at an end of the first year level. This didn't surprise him much to learn as while he was talented he spent most of his time improving his foundations rather than trying to grow more powerful.-

Nick found it wasteful to rush after greater power when he had all the time in the world for that so long as no one off's him early. The first two years at Hogwarts weren't all that dangerous minus the 60 foot snake that gets out , so this was the perfect time to take it easy and make sure he was fully prepared to deal with the future. 'First thing's first though I need to get to the breakfast.' he thought as he locked the workshop behind him and started to walk to the great hall.-

Nick didn't know what happened but he found himself at the great hall but couldn't remember walking to it. He shrugged and walked through the doorway thinking it wasn't that big of a deal since he gets lost in thought pretty often. Dumbledore meanwhile now had a small vial with a single drop of red blood in it that he stored in his robe. Breakfast was a simple affair with Nick stuffing his face while Ron looked like he was trying to keep up. After that it was an hour of history of magic that Nick spent quietly chatting with his friends.-

He had been slowly distancing himself from Harry and Ron during this time but once he was no longer a constant factor he stopped. He was still friends with the boy and hung out with him pretty often but made sure that he was usually busy with something or another. None of Nick's friends minded his frequent absences in their hang out sessions since he was different from them. Tracy and Daphne were especially appreciative of his work as their parents were often stuck in their own business as well. -

Flitwick's class was different today however and the small man made it clear immediately. "Welcome students , this month we will be learning the levitation charm and unlocking charm." he said with a wide smile. "Today we will be learning the wand movements and pronunciation for the unlocking charm." Flitwick said honestly. 'A new set of spells every month I assume is the schedule.' Nick thought after hearing this. The first half of the class was rote learning and so Nick simply didn't participate nor did Flitwick think he should. The second half however was where a practical attempt was done for the spell and with a wave of Flitwick's wand a single locked box landed in front of each of the students.
