Harry Potter: The Ring Maker

Chapter 504: Preparations(2)

"It doesn't matter since I doubt there is anyone else who could use the information within it anyways." Nick said with a shrug. "That doesn't make sense as if only you could use the information then who wrote the book?" Hermione asked with furrowed brows and clear confusion. "You misunderstand me , only I can use the information because as a prerequisite there are a few innate factors that need to be fulfilled that I honestly can't see anyone else fulfilling. I might be wrong of course but I doubt it." Nick clarified honestly.-

He meant it too as the very minimum requirements for binding a realm were having daedric essence to at least some degree , having a powerful soul and of course having a realm to bind in the first place. Having even one of these in this world was difficult but all three was something only someone with a system like Nick could achieve as daedra simply can't survive in this world as it currently is. Nick himself is only partly daedric in essence and is still maturing magically so he is able to skirt this problem for the time being.-

As for obtaining a realm it was indeed possible for a wizard to create one with the right information and effort. It wouldn't be as efficient as the method Nick used but it was very much possible to do. "Seems foolish to think no one else can use the information , what if you are wrong?" Hermione pressed not willing to concede. "Then I am wrong , not that it matters anyway." Nick said with a shrug since he wasn't going to argue with her over it. Nick thought it funny that he tended to keep most information he has close to his chest but as he grew closer and closer to the pinnacle of power currently in this world he has gotten much more free about sharing.-

After all why should he have to hide it when he overpowers nearly everyone in the world minus perhaps a couple handfuls of people? "What was that book about anyways?" Harry asked curiously. "It was about soul and dimensional magics when it is broken down into it's basic parts. Very deep and powerful stuff all in all." Nick said with a proud smile. "Where do you even find a book on something like that?" Ron asked dumbfounded.-

"Oh you know ... places. Before any of you ask , no you can't borrow the book. You wouldn't be able to read it and I am not teaching you how either." Nick said calmly while munching on a chocolate walnut and peanut butter cookie. (A/n: if you want the recipe just ask) Hermione looked upset at that but Nick didn't really care as while he was all for helping his friends grow as wizards he wasn't going to unnecessarily share his secrets. The daedric rune language was just one of those things that he wanted to selfishly keep to himself.-

'That reminds me but I need to work on upgrading my atronachs since while an army of them is nice it won't be much use if they get killed by random people when I send them out.' Nick thought while making a note of it. While Nick had been away from the island Dotty had been in charge of creating new atronachs and then teleporting them to the area set aside for them. Atronachs were very passive creatures normally and thus just stayed in place until Nick took the time to stop by and give them purpose. The unfortunate part was that most of these atronachs were the inferior sort and thus pretty weak.-

For the flame variant atronachs Nick could easily upgrade them by exposing them to magical flames of different types but for the others he needed a little more effort , though not enough to be a problem. Besides improving the atronachs Nick also wanted to collect the rest of the ingredients for the ceremony so he could complete that before he started binding his realm. Call it instinct or intuition but Nick had a feeling that after binding his realm he will lose the opportunity to gain anything permanent from rituals.-

He understood where this feeling came from as well as after some thought on it he realized that as a daedric realm lord his essence would be unaffected by any rituals after he binds his realm so when he loses his body and is reborn from his realm he will be back to the state he was before the rituals. Sure his new body will be more mature but whatever magical alterations he underwent in an unnatural manner after he bound his realm would be removed.
