Chapter 128: Thieving Steve

Chapter 128: Thieving Steve

His friends were much more relaxed at dinner this time as he didn't have awful wounds all over his arms. "Did you already figure out how to use the shield charm Nick?" Ron asked in surprise. Nick nodded but a slight twitch of his eyebrow told Harry and Hermione not to ask how , Ron did not get that message though. "That's incredible! How'd you manage it without getting gnarled up like before?" he asked and Nick took a deep breath and repressed the urge to curse at the dense boy angrily and calmly said he'd rather not talk about it.-

Ron looked dissatisfied with this answer but before he could dig a deep hole to be buried in Harry changed the topic to the quidditch tactic Nick had suggested before. Apparently it had taken a bit but Harry had gotten the hang of performing the maneuver while at a full stop which represented initial mastery of it. Ron was full of praise for this as it was a very impressive thing for a nonprofessional player to do so maybe the scouters will start sending offers once they see it for themselves.- Ñøv€l--ß1n hosted the premiere release of this chapter.

Things moved on fairly normally after that with nothing of note until a week from then when Nick finally gained enough proficiency with the shield charm to shift the trajectory of spells so long as they weren't too powerful. With this level of knowledge he wanted to try and make backup disposable rings that held a single powerful shield that automatically protected it's wielder before breaking. These would be his bread and butter for the next step of his plan to popularize his name as a craftsman. With all the panic going around because of Grindelwald people would jump at the protective items since he planed to sell them at the cheap price of ten sickles.-

Strangely enough Mcgonagall was in quite taken with the greedy thing and spoiled it rotten with cookies whenever Nick had class. 'Then again it's not just her either , literally almost all the girls who see the bastard fawn all over it. I admit he's kinda cute but this is nuts.' Nick thought looking at the pile of sweets stacked up neatly in Steve's personal corner of the workshop. That corner had a magical birdbath , dog bed and blankets alongside his horde of ill gotten loot. Most of it was comprised of coins but there was hair pins , brooches and even a silver spoon for some reason.
