Chapter 116: Quidditch and mindscape
"What he didn't tell you is that most people who try to use the technique end up losing control of their brooms and crashing hard." Tracy said seriously. Nick scoffed "Bah , Harry's a natural on a broom and I'd sooner expect to see Snape in a tutu than him to lose control of his broom over something he did." Nick defended while also secretly implying that someone will need to be attacking Harry if his broom goes postal. No one realized this but didn't argue with him about Harry's talent as they have all seen it , though they did convince Harry to hold off on the technique until he could practice it first.-
Nick split off from the group after an hour or so of hanging out as per his usual habit and headed towards the workshop calmly. He had finally adjusted to the massive amount of magic in the air of Hogwarts already so he basically never turned off his magical senses anymore at this point. He hadn't done the ritual of reflex yet due to the unforeseen problem on the end of his elven transformation. As it turned out a small change to his physical body like with the ritual of night eye was fine since it didn't affect him much.-
The ritual of reflex however was problematic as it optimized his entire reactionary system in his body and that as it turns out was a VERY big change. Nerves , muscles and signal speed was all overhauled by the ritual and if his physical transformation clashed with the rituals effect he could end up in agony at best and dead at worse. Needless to say that was not something he was willing to risk and had as such pushed the ritual back until his transformation was complete.-
Besides the facets nearby the entire scene was a strange mix of floating islands , inverted trees growing from the sky , liquid fire that behaved like water and slow lightning that was shifting and changing based on rules he simply couldn't understand other than the fact that it was all wrong , illogical. Nick didn't even move on to the next step of occlumency as he was too lost in whatever the fuck it was that he found himself in. Not even gravity seemed to work as he could walk up the sides of the islands and across the fire water like it was solid ground.
