Chapter 349: Possible parts
The ritual specified that he could use parts from no more than six creatures and so he planned to use the best possible ingredients for it. The three he currently had were all at minimum xxxxx class dangerous things with the daedra heart being a bit iffy in it's category. See the description of the heart didn't say which sort of daedra it came from so it was entirely possible it was the heart of a peon level daedra. Even then though daedra were pretty much all apex existences due to their near immortal natures.-
It was certainly possible to kill a daedra but to do so required dispersing their essence entirely which was difficult to say the least. The problem Nick had at the moment was that there was not any powerful creature parts that he could get his hands on that weren't either highly illegal or kept by old families as treasures. He could use acromantula parts since they were fairly powerful creatures but the thought seemed wrong to him , cheap almost. With a colony of the things available to be hunted he could easily obtain what he wanted from them but he wanted only the best for his ritual.-
The forgotten halls were the place things were sent to be purposefully lost to history and hopefully never found again. Nick wouldn't have even known about the existence of the place had it not been for the brief mention of it in one of the forbidden sections books. "Dotty!" Nick called out after leaving the realm with the three item tickets. With a loud "POP!" the house elf appeared before him eager to serve. "How can this one serve the great master?" Dotty asked eagerly. "Find a Lethifold and kill it with these before bringing whatever is left afterwards to me assuming there is anything left." Nick commanded while handing over a dozen sol shot arrows.-
The elf took the arrows and vanished eager to do as he had commanded regardless of how dangerous the task seemed. That was simply the way house elves were so Nick didn't mind at all and considered the matter of the fourth creature part finished for now. This left him with the last two parts needed for the ritual that was rapidly approaching. He sighed before accepting that an acromantula part was going to be the fifth ingredient.-
If he could freely advertise that he needed rare and powerful creature parts with the rarer and more powerful the better then he wouldn't need to do this. The reality of the matter however was that any advertisement like that is asking the ministry to bust down his door and throw him in Azkaban for illegal magic use. As a result Nick could only resolve himself to getting slightly less than optimal results as this was the last year he could perform the ritual due to the age restriction on it.
