Chapter 482: Going to Iceland

Chapter 482: Going to Iceland

Other than that there wasn't really any presents worth mentioning and the rest of the day was fairly quiet as well minus the small snowball fight the twins started. Nick didn't take part in it but watched from the sidelines while under a shield charm. Not for lack of effort on the twins part to be fair as they kept "accidentally" hitting the shield from different angles in search of a weakness. Nick was not foolish enough to leave such a thing however and merely smirked as he sipped his Mexican hot chocolate.-

Something about the added red pepper really elevated the drink in his opinion and Dotty was always happy to make stuff like this for him if he asked. Ron was also a huge fan of the drink after trying some and had his own mug next to Nick. There was nothing really special about it but it was nice to just sit around and chat with friends without studying or worrying about the upcoming mana recovery and returning gods. Still all good things come to an end and the day soon waned away before a new one started.-

Nick didn't pay much attention to his surroundings as he flew as the only things he needed to watch were in front of him in the form of birds. If his eyesight wasn't extremely good and his reaction speed being superhuman he might not have been able to dodge the few he came across that were cruising at this altitude. After about forty five minutes he spotted his destination ahead of him and started to slow down which brought back a disorienting amount of noise. Still he safely arrived on the south eastern part of the country and began his search for the spot Slytherin described.-

This was slightly tricky as there was quite a lot of volcanic activity in the southern part of the country that threw off his magical senses slightly from the earth fire there. After about two hours of careful searching however Nick finally got a magical return that didn't belong to the earth fire. In his senses it felt like something that was trying to go unnoticed which was ironically what gave it away to him. If he was going off of sight or something like that then Slytherins ward would have worked perfectly as his notice would have slipped right over it but in his magical senses something telling him not to notice it tended to do the opposite.-

Moving the large amount of rock covering the entrance Nick entered the crevice cautiously after dismantling the ward and replacing it behind him. Like he had expected the crevice was very hot but thanks to both his natural resistance to high temperatures and the armor that adapted and protected him from it he was perfectly fine. Eventually he found his first traces of the metal guardians that Slytherin spoke of in the form of broken pieces of a whole that Nick figured the founders team had left behind.
