Chapter 538: Busy

Nick left the room after that and ate dinner before calling it a day. The next morning he woke up to the sky being overcast and dark as a storm had rolled over while he was asleep. 'I was going to go collect some souls in the forest but this weather is simply dreadful.' he thought and shrugged. Nick walked down into the common room after getting dressed and was surprised to see that someone was already awake. It was Hermione with a sleepy expression as she poured over a book.-Updated from novelb(i)n.c(o)m

"Stayed up all night I take it?" he asked startling the girl. "Ah it's just you nick , yes I was up all last night trying to find anything about that strange sound that the golden egg released. No luck so far I'm afraid." she said disappointedly. "Here this should help you get through the day without accidentally falling asleep." Nick said taking out an energy potion. She looked grateful as she drank it and instantly pepped up. "What potion is that? I've never had anything quite like it." she asked curiously. "Doesn't have an official name but I refer to it as sleep in a bottle since drinking it gives the same effects as a full nights rest." He said honestly.-

Make the chambers , work on copying the library , empty out the room of hidden things , work on his twilight style crafting , work on the organic smithing stuff , read and master the knowledge in the lexicon , prepare to graduate , deal with the royal vampires , expand his atronach army , hone his skill and control over his power and even more. Each and every one of these things would take up time to do and he needed to do all of them. Some were more long term type things but others had the deadline of by the end of this year so he was quite pressed for time.-

For today though Nick chose to continue working on the chambers that had been commissioned and just before the first task been half paid for. The other half of the payment would come when he delivered the goods. He was faster in creating these new chambers because he had the rough skeleton of runic enchantments for them already done after the task chambers creation. The part that slowed him down was the specification and details that each person wanted for their chamber. In a way Nick was building each set of enchantments up one block at a time while making sure they don't clash somewhere or remove room for growth.-

The golems were even harder to create as they weren't static things but mimicked the real creatures that they were based on and had to be carefully constructed to be easily repairable as well as energy efficient so they didn't just run out of power in the middle of a simulation fight. Achieving all that while programming them to behave just like the real deal made them highly advanced pieces of magical engineering. Thankfully they were in fact a matter of copy and pasting the enchantment after he made a single model of every type.
