Chapter 233: Crossed enchantment experiment

After learning what exactly had gone down Snape deducted points from both Gryffindor and Slytherin as they were both in the wrong but otherwise no one had been punished. Those who had been trapped underground however were now much more fearful of offending Nicks friends and avoided them. Malfoy on the other hand had lost a considerable amount of political pull in his house after news of it spread out. He wasn't a pariah but nobody save his minions Crabbe and Goyle approached him now. On the flip side Daphne and Tracy both gained a lot of pull in their house since they had been tied to Nick.-

After visiting Hagrid Nick and his friends hung out in his workshop though without touching anything this time. Most of them were chatting or playing wizards chess while Nick meanwhile was holding a silver band ring in a vise while he had an engraver in his hand. He was hunched over the vise with a jewelers monocle over his left eye. "What are you even doing over there?" Tracy asked curiously but Nick didn't look up when he responded. "I'm enchanting this ring with runes to see if I can mix my own unique method of enchanting with the normal one." he said as he finished carving the futhark word for water.- Ñ00v€l--ß1n hosted the premiere release of this chapter.

"What do you expect to happen if you succeed?" Luna asked curiously while brushing Steve in her lap. "I don't expect it to succeed at first , in fact I am fairly certain it will actually explode on my first attempt." He said honestly as he loosened the vice and rotated the ring to a side without an engraved word before tightening it again. "Is that normal?" Daphne as concerned for his safety. "It's totally normal , you should see what happens to the bones I try to enchant. Messy business that." he said as he got started carving the futhark word for cold.-

This was also the final word in the set that would create a burst of ice from the ring after activation. "Why not ask Flitwick for help then?" Luna asked curiously. Nick sighed " I did but he is just as helpless as I am since no one has researched this topic as far as history is concerned so I have to start from scratch. His expertise in enchanting makes him invaluable at quickly going through ideas I hadn't thought of however." he explained honestly. Finally he finished the enchantment on the ring and slipping it on his pointer finger he activated the enchantment on the ring sending a burst of ice at the wooden target he "borrowed" from the old dueling storage room.
