(H.P: the ring maker)Lexicon

Immediately after opening the door Nick leapt backwards as several attacks came at him from within the room. He didn't realize it until the door was open but there was three drones within the room set to ambush whoever opened it incorrectly. 'I forgot that the dwemer were clever pricks and did shit like this.' he thought as he quickly immobilized and dismantled the drones like the previous one....

(RPJ)Chapter 102: Spikey boy and RNGESUS

Dinner was a simple sautéed meat and veggies mix on rice with a nice gravy from the rendered fat of the meat and some cooking wine. Obviously the portion sizes were gigantic since I was cooking for two pokemon and a person but clearly the cooking set was designed with that in mind. Food ingredients were also cheaper than ever for me after getting that star badge as it turned out most stores ha...

(H.P: the ring maker)Dwemer

A/N: this ->(..) means missing text.

"Reparo!" he spoke softly and the magic struck the haphazard pile of book remains and Nick watched hopeful that he could learn something about whoever built this place. It was slow going but eventually the magic finished running it's course and Nick sighed at what he saw. the few books that were able to be salvaged to a degree were repaired...

(H.P: the ring maker)Deja vu

Nick picked up the pieces and observed them but frowned as he couldn't identify it. At first glance it appeared to be bronze but it was far too sturdy to actually be it and there was no corrosion at all despite the enchantments on the metal being destroyed for over a thousand years. Using the system Nick analyzed the pieces and smiled at what it told him. The metal was called olympium and was a...

(RPJ)Chapter 101: Positive changes

The step by step instructions for the potions was quite clear and easy to understand and as I knew from the skills ingrained knowledge timing was a key component as well. While it was possible to create potions , pills and supplements by just tossing everything in all at once it almost always turned out inferior to using a steady and organized approach. The first step for this particular potion...

(H.P: the ring maker)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....

(H.P: the ring maker)Bloodline curse

Nick sighed when he noticed this and was conflicted since on one hand he felt a bit bad that he kept forgetting to look into her families curse. On the other hand however it was her faith in him to be able to just casually find a cure for it that set a dangerous precedent. If he did indeed create a cure then she may develop absolute faith in his capabilities which is very bad should she be put ...

(H.P: the ring maker)Christmas

Nick of course tested the final result and was pleased to find that not only did it work but it was even better than the original way the gun worked as the burst runes applied all that force directly on the bullet itself giving it far greater force behind each one compared to the confined explosions that the original black powder used. All in all Nick considered it a great success even if encha...

(H.P: The ring maker)Coming together

Nick assumed that this was how all growth enchanted items of his would roughly work but it was entirely possible that the realm ring was special in this regard. He simply couldn't know until another one reached mythical or Legendary grade though. Even his earliest growth enchanted item hadn't grown to that point yet due to the standard way that the enchantment grew. The realm ring grew by him f...

(RPJ)Chapter 100: How training and exp tickets work

From what I can tell roughly plus what I found on the trainer research forums there were a few rules involved with how fast pokemon can grow stronger. The first was that the evolutionary stage they were on determined their maximum level of power before no amount of training will do much of anything. Pokemon with a single form were lucky in this regard as they were basically exempt from this rul...

(H.P: the ring maker)Wandering wizard armor

In a funny sort of way ballad enchantments were even simpler to do for Nick than the Celebrimbor style he had mastered via effort. This was due to the instinctual nature of the art that did not require mastery via training but merely going with the flow. Nick released all illusions of control and allowed the song to shape itself as it wished as the armor on the anvil glowed and hummed in tune w...

(H.P: the ring maker)Moves in the background

"Should we try and erase him for breaking the terms we put forth?" a nearby woman asked seriously. The elder shook their head "The brat hasn't actually broken the terms we set as we never said he had to stop growing but that he needed to stop drawing attention to us and while he was clearly pushing the limit with this new sport it didn't reflect back on us at all. It doesn't matter if he did br...

(RPJ)Chapter 99: Epiphany

I felt nothing as I looked at the corpse and turned to leave the house immediately when I paused for a moment before retrieving the mans pokemon from his belt. He had two Muk , a Swalot , a Raticate , a Qwilfish and a Kirlia. I checked with observe to see which if any of the pokemon were truly loyal to the man and only the two Muk fit that description while the other minus the Kirlia were force...

(H.P: the ring maker)Preparations

Nick thought about it and found the suggestion reasonable since while he doubted the wards around the island could completely contain the worldly phenomena of a ballad enchantment it should be able to limit it. 'I think this will work but I will create a few precautions just in case.' Nick thought before opening the daedric book again to study it while he waited for his mana to refill. He didn'...

(H.P: the ring maker)Ballad enchantments

The next morning after breakfast Nick got to work on enchanting the pauldrons with an environmental protection enchantment much like his self created space suit had. Nick didn't want this suit of armor to grant him greater strength in combat but rather to allow him to go anywhere he wanted without issue. Each and every enchantment on the pieces of the armor served this purpose in some way inclu...

(RPJ)Chapter 98: Vigilante work(2)

Emotion suppression did exactly as the name suggested and suppressed ones emotions , but suppression was not removal of these emotions by any stretch of the imagination. In fact it was actually more like making them worse after this suppression was released as they had built up over that entire time. The stronger the emotions suppressed the worse the outburst when they were released. It happene...

(H.P: the ring maker)More work

While most were used to seeing the sheer amount of food that Nick put away per meal it still made some students uncomfortable. Nick couldn't help it though as between his growing body and the workout that forging gave him his caloric intake had skyrocketed to nearly beastly levels. This meal for example consisted of two entire roast chickens , a large bowl of greens , two loaves of bread and le...

(H.P: The ring maker)Souls and hallows

On the way to the great hall Nick saw something that gave him pause , Helena was talking and smiling with Lupin in the hallway. 'Now that explains her absence a lot , I almost feel bad for the bloody baron seeing this.' he thought with a conflicted expression. On one hand he was happy that Helena found someone who she fancied but on the other hand he felt that this was wrong for Lupin. Helena m...

(RPJ)Chapter 97: Vigilante work

Slateport was strangely lively even after the sun started to go down as the market was brightly lit with paper lanterns that held slow burning candles within them. The buildings were all made of metal and plastic which I figured was likely because of the location of the city being right next to the open ocean. Unlike Mr. Brineys house however that was in a calm area with little winds and thus m...

(H.P: the ring maker)Runic armor

At the end of his recovery time Nick put away the book and cleared his mind of his distracting thoughts. He then grabbed the faulds and set them on the anvil 'Not quite sure about this one actually , any ideas?' Nick thought to see if Celebrimbor had any ideas. Nick roughly knew what most of the pieces were going to be enchanted to do but the faulds happened to be one of them that he was not qu...

(H.P: the ring maker)Thoughts

'Next up is the cuisses which I think I will add a simple balance enchantment to.' Nick thought while setting the greaves to the side. After he mastered the Celebrimbor style and gained near perfect control of his spiritual energy he became much more efficient at crafting new items. Add onto this his current reserves of mana and he can now craft two brand new enchantments back to back before ne...

(RPJ)Chapter 96:Ambitions bared

"Why?" I asked confused since as far as I could tell the battle with Roxanne had little to do with anything that would interest a fighting type specialist like Brawly. "You man! You made a statement to all of us gym leaders with that battle! You told us that you were here to conquer and you weren't gonna hold back until you reached the top! We all felt it and are stoked to accept your challenge...

(H.P: the ring maker)Armored up

Nick had been going through various ideas with Celebrimbor in regards to the design of his armor since the ancient elf was a renowned smith before he ever forged a single ring. This meant that while Nick had the knowledge he would need to make an armor he lacked the experience in armor making that Celebrimbor had. Thanks to this he didn't make the common mistake of creating a suit of armor that...

(H.P: the ring maker)Christmas break

Nick shook his head "This is not the sort of thing to be made often but rather on occasions when one feels like treating themselves. This way you don't lose appreciation for it." He said honestly. "Too much of a good thing spoils it." Luna said with an understanding nod. "Now then lets see what else we have in this basket to eat shall we?" Nick said and began to look through the basket. He foun...

(H.P: the ring maker)Fruit tea

The problem she had however was that whatever it was that had shown up at her school was definitely not a phoenix. The details of it's appearance was all wrong and the element it used to arrived was almost wrong. At the same time it was also not a thunderbird either as the colors were all off and it had a few phoenix like traits. Despite her great knowledge of magical beasts she simply had no c...

(H.P: the ring maker)Before the break

Time passed by again after that as two weeks came and went with a few things happening during that time. The first was that there were three more matches between the four blitzball teams in Hogwarts with the Krakens currently being undefeated. This had made an interesting dynamic in which the members of the different Hogwarts houses had mutual fandom for the same Hogwarts teams. Dumbledore was ...

(H.P: the ring maker)Blitz techniques

Despite this it was only halfway through the first quarter of the game that Nick saw what the twins were bragging about. When the right attacker for the Krakens was making it within scoring distance of the Mermens goal the twins moved to tackle. Except when the Kraken went to breakthrough the twins they both grinned and did something awesome. One of them flipped onto their back with their arms ...

(H.P: the ring maker)Mermen VS Krakens

Anthony laughed at that "That describes them perfectly!" he said in agreement. "Let me guess it was probably started by whoever it was that wanted to bully Luna right?" Nick asked with and knowing look. "Nailed it in one , I admit the rest of us should have probably put a stop to it but didn't want to clash with the ones responsible." Anthony said with clear shame. "I would have put a stop to i...

(RPJ)Chapter 95: Surprise appearance

I was observant enough to notice the tenseness that Steven had despite his friendly way of speaking and calm appearance. I couldn't exactly blame him considering that despite the fact he was DEFINITELY more powerful than me as a trainer he also didn't have any of his pokemon out at the moment and he was in a small chamber with all of my own. In other words if any of my pokemon were to attack wi...

(H.P: the ring maker)Goldstein

It was funny how no one seemed to question the strange new magical creature that flew around the castle in the morning everyday or how Nick seemed to suddenly be able to teleport when he was out of sight. The only ones actually aware of the situation was the staff of the school and they had been keeping it quiet just like with Lupins new state. Nick had been very pleased with his Animagus form ...
