"AAAAAH!" the grunt screamed in pain after his legs were broken but I ignored it as I had Tank wrap him up in string shot silk from the chest down. "Was that really necessary? Not to say that I'm not grateful for your rescue but this is rather excessive isn't it?" the Devon employee said with con...

"A-are we in danger!?" Lucas asked nervously after hearing what Nick said. "Not because of him or those under him if at all , we have guest right at the moment so I doubt he would do anything untoward." Nick said while taking a book out of his realm. It wasn't anything special , just as book on a...

It didn't matter anyways since the smoke created by the move was hopelessly thin and white making it actually counter productive to it's intended purpose. The move is supposed to allow the user to be hard to hit thus boosting evasiveness but Rune was bright orange in a cloud of white. If anything...

It wasn't until they reached the end of the bazaar that Nick spotted a dark skinned man with a dragon tattoo on his forehead and the usual red eyes of vampires. The man had a calm look on his face as he surveyed the throngs of people in the bazaar. He stiffened however when his eyes fell upon Nic...

Contrary to how it may seem Nick wasn't just giving out valuable gifts left and right without any protections in place. In any of his crafts that held the potential to harm him in some way he had placed hidden loyalty enchantments that rendered the rest inert should they be used on him. The deal ...

Nick spent the next week focusing entirely on these two things and made a good amount of progress on both of them. There were now twenty eight lessor atronachs of various kinds on the island and he had almost finished the sixth year material. Hogwarts curriculum had a bit of a snowball effect in ...

With proof of concept now established Nick now set out to create as many atronachs as he could. The first atronach type he focused on was the fire atronachs because he had a theory about them that he wanted to verify.
