Chapter 282: Nazgul's transformation

Finally the projection fully vanished as the ring devoured the final hints of the founders soul causing the portrait to turn to dust. Behind that portrait was another room that not only contained the staff but also a miniature library of clearly hand written books. Checking a handful of them Nick's eyes lit up as he found that they were all written by Slytherin himself to record his entire set of knowledge. They were so detailed that there was even entire tomes that no longer existed copied down verbatim in some books.-Ñøv€l-B1n was the first platform to present this chapter.

'This library may as well be a step by step guide to becoming as powerful as the founder himself.' Nick thought with a wide grin. He chose to temporarily ignore the library however and focused on the old wooden staff that was carved to look like it had an actual serpent coiled around it. The serpent was so masterfully carved that other than age related signs on the wood Nick would have been convinced that it was an actual snake otherwise. His magical senses however were nearly blinded looking at the thing as it was covered in dense complex enchantments via a style he was totally unfamiliar with.-

"THUMP! THUMP! THUMP! THUMP!" the sound of a heartbeat echoed throughout the area and Nick felt the hair all over his body stand on end as the magical beast birth phenomena grew far more powerful than even when Norberta was born. Clearly whatever the Nazgul ring was turning into was of a higher life order than even a dragon which made sense. Dragons were highly magical but whatever the ring was becoming was born of pure unadulterated spiritual mana that had reached a critical point. Nick frowned however when he felt the life signs of the ring start to weaken and he realized it had been over eager and didn't have enough energy to be born anew.-

Walking over to the metal shell the size of a basket ball he gently rested his hand on it and began to channel his spiritual energy into the "egg". Slowly but surely the life signs grew stronger and stronger with this new infusion of spiritual energy until something changed and Nick felt a connection form between his soul and the thing the ring was becoming. "CAAAAAWWWW! CRACK!" a loud bird call came from the "egg" and a single crack appeared on it as bright light began to pour out from within it.-

Soon Nick watched as more and more cracks formed on the egg until with a loud "BOOM!" the egg exploded and the bright light temporarily blinded Nick. Once Nick's vision had returned he saw the new magical creature standing before him and sucked in a breath of air in awe. It was a bird that had a body shape much like that of a eagle except much smaller and narrower. It was covered in smooth shimmering black , white and golden feathers from head to tail.
