Chapter 391: Poor decision

Chapter 391: Poor decision

Nick spent the next week focusing entirely on these two things and made a good amount of progress on both of them. There were now twenty eight lessor atronachs of various kinds on the island and he had almost finished the sixth year material. Hogwarts curriculum had a bit of a snowball effect in that each previous years materials made the next easier to understand in compounding effects. Jumping from first year to seventh directly was much harder than doing the same from the second or third year. It was a simple matter of complexity getting broken down and fed in manageable amounts.-

The final years materials for example where almost the same as the sixth years except they were more complex. Still Nick knew from experience that learning this stuff helped tremendously when learning other advanced things. For example learning the charms coursework made it easier to understand foreign spells and thus counter them. With that knowledge it made sense that Flitwick who taught the subject was also a very skilled duelist. Transfiguration on the other hand had a use in almost every facet of wizarding life from crafting to paperwork.-

Reeling the line in on the rod nick hooked the eye of the rod and wound it tight before walking back to the manor. He ignored the squads of atronachs patrolling the perimeter of the manor and headed to the room he knew had Lucas in it. "Need something boss?" the vampire asked curiously when Nick entered the room. "The one who turned you has placed a bounty of two thousand galleons on my life and I thought you should know." Nick said casually. Nick wasn't bothered by the bounty all that much but it was slightly irritating.-

"She what!?" Lucas exclaimed in horror once he heard Nick. "Does she even know who you are!?" Lucas asked in both horror and confusion. Nick couldn't blame him really as this was the same as trying to assassinate a world leader. The wizarding community in Britain is going to go crazy about this and seek to eliminate the vampress. It should be noted that nearly every wizard in Britain came from Hogwarts of which a good third were Ravenclaw. As the last known descendant of Rowena Ravenclaw attacking him like this was tantamount to slapping all of their faces.-

Exceeded noble or not this was a terrible choice to make if you valued your life which was why Nick wasn't worried. Nick wasn't wrong either as both the public with ears in the darker side of society and those that lived there were bubbling over at this move. Pureblood clans were placing bounties of their own on the vampress and those living in the dark parts of society that still had some attachment to Hogwarts were planning all sorts of nasty fates for her. The vampire community was also collectively distancing themselves from her like she might explode at any moment.
