Chapter 252: A thousand years cold

Nick merely sighed at this since Celebrimbor merely needed to ask if this was all he wanted rather than try and make a big fuss about it. Choosing to ignore the smug looking elf Nick turned his attention to the outer part of his mindscape just behind his first set of defenses and slowly began to manifest one bird after another. This was an incredibly time consuming process as he needed to "program" these birds to fly around the area infinitely with the goal of stopping anything from getting through them. He went so far as to make each and every member of a particular species extremely detailed including nature flight and hunting behaviors.-

He then created billions of each of these things before having them scatter and join the other species he was creating. In the end he was left with a mini ecosystem of just birds that had the smaller ones getting hunted by the bigger ones. He then set a "reproduction" mechanism that caused each bird to split into two birds every day. This meant that the longer the second layer was active the more and more dangerous to outsiders it would become.-

Nick shook his head "You didn't hear me apparently , I said that the choice was my except in your case. For you the one you have to convince is not me but her." Nick said pointing at Helena who was painting off to the side. The bloody baron looked mortified by the idea and looked at Nick beggingly but he got a cold glare in return. The ghost looked at Helena conflicted before floating over to her to try and make his case.-

"Revenge is hers after a thousand years it seems. I will not mock him for the irony of the situation but his chances are truly dreadful." the fat friar said with a sigh. "Now that that's taken care of back to the matter at hand , I take it Helena has briefed you both on exactly what getting one of these rings from me means?" Nick asked seriously and both ghosts nodded with stern expressions. "Do know that the rings will stop working and fall off of you should any sort of betrayal towards me happen. That said I will provide both of you a ring soon as I don't have any extra's just laying about." Nick said and they both looked disappointed.-

"What I do have is the ring Helena used before her current one that gives her a corporeal body but no magic. You will need to share while I prepare the individual rings but I doubt that will bother either of you all that much." he added and took out the original Nazfea ring from Greed. It was funny to watch the two ghosts haggle out the exact timeline for who gets to wear it and for how long before settling the matter with rock paper scissors.
