The spirit being bound to the realm as a daedra caused a very noticeable shift in the size of it as the realm grew a good quarter larger. Tengoku's ability was frankly terrifying in Nicks opinion and made him glad he rescued the spirit from Zeus. The ability was called heavens judgement and worked based on ones previous actions via the time domain. Nick wasn't sure if this was coincidence or a remnant of Chronos's influence on Zeus after his death but regardless the Zanpakuto turned daedra ha...

So I realized that I was drawing out my ring maker story by not just getting the whole Zeus thing done with like i should have have. At the current scale there was nothing really happening and I was pulling stuff out of nowhere for no reason. Once I noticed this i have decided to get it over with and finish up the Zeus arc. This will probably seem rather forced to some of you but I can say that I had planned on this being how it ended anyways just more drawn out.
All that said I will st...

Dive Containers were a water type trainers best friend if they had a species of pokemon that was limited outside of water. What a dive container was was a sort of spatially expanded pouch that was similar to the bags except that the inside was filled with an artificial environment suitable for most water types. That was it's only purpose , to serve as a way for a trainer to keep their pokemon out of their balls without worrying about finding a body of water first. In this particular inst...

Zeus panted and leveled a baneful gaze at Nick but before he could take a breather Hephaestus came in with a heavy downswing of her hammer forcing him to block. She wasn't as strong as him in terms of pure power but her metal domain was nearly equal with his own lightning domain at this point and thus set them roughly equal. Hephaestus had explained how divine combat and killing worked and it was quite fascinating to Nick. Much like himself a gods physical form was merely a vessel for their s...

It didn't really take all that long either as Zeus approached early in the morning about two weeks later and Nick and Hephaestus rushed out to meet him so that the battle didn't damage the territory. When they finally saw him Nick was not particularly surprised to see that the god was holding a Zanpakuto. He had a pitying look at it however as the Zanpakuto clearly didn't have a Shikai form if the sense of pure rejection coming from the weapon was any indication. The weapon spirit HATED Zeus ...

It took Nick a while but he eventually managed to pass out a single believers mark to every person in his territory but finally he was ready to activate his tithe. His aura flared out in a golden red hue from his body before shrinking drastically to exactly one percent of it's original size. "Faithful Tithe: COLLECTION!" he shouted and his ability activated. Immediately the marks in the possession of those in his territory shattered and just under twenty two million streaks of rainbow light s...

This wasn't to say that Nick went out of his way to offend every other country in the world but he wasn't going to just roll over either. For many politicians this made him quite an irritation as all of his actions were clear cut and dry. He actually used the taxes of those in his territory to improve the territory and even went out of his way to lower the prices of items that were easy to obtain while things like water and food were pretty much free. -

'So multitasking also prevents it from attacking? This is probably due to it's inexperience most likely. It probably got indecisive from the three directions it was being attacked from and froze up as a result.' I thought as I tapped the keystone with a pokeball to capture the ghost type. The ball shook two times before settling down and I felt the artificial bond form. Immediately I grimaced as a wave of chaotic emotions came through the connection. "Ugh , why did I expect anything different...

Nick slowly began to unlock nen in his citizens but came across a slight snag that he needed to overcome. Nen relied on ones body quite heavily and as a result a prerequisite for unlocking it safely was to have a strong body or at least a athletic one. Obviously that was kind of a problem as besides the adventurers and hunters that regularly trained most people were fairly lazy in terms of exercise. Nick was helpless about this as he couldn't exactly force people to regularly exercise , well ...

Nick and Hephaestus were the first to officially gain nen abilities with Nick unlocking it by his own effort and Hephaestus getting it unlocked by Nick. As a god with a massive life force Nick accidentally knocked out everyone in the territory the moment he unlocked his as it was uncontrolled and fully extended. He wasn't using it on anyone though so it merely brushed against them and sent them to sleep. It was a bit annoying but Nick needed to go to the realm in order to fully grasp and cont...

While I thought the whole ghost types being born from resentment and hatred thing was bullshit I knew that there were a few actual exceptions to this. Spiritomb was one of those as it was a species of pokemon that was only born after many lives were lost in a location. This wasn't conjecture or myth or some other nonsense but cold hard fact. While it was true that the vast majority of ghost types were born without death being even slightly involved the ones who were born from it had a very ba...

During the last two years Nick had spent millions of points on new knowledge from the system and grown his library into a madness inducingly large and complex thing. Of course there was also a dwemer lexicon version of the library as well as he had finished digesting the lexicon he got years back. He now knew basically everything the Dwemer had thought to include within it. Amongst that knowledge was information on alchemically altering plantlife as well as various new farming information's f...

At first glance one would think that all domains were equal but like all things in the world that simply isn't true. Some domains are simply more important on a reality scale such as space and time. Many domains relied on these two in order to even exist after all. Creation and destruction were two domains that actually consisted of multiple other domains in a sort of overarching umbrella domain. Magic , souls , fire , weather and lightning were all domains that fell under destruction which b...

As I found out shortly after that my eye was not even human at all in appearance but rather was the slit reptilian of a dragon types eyes. Even stranger it wasn't blue like my normal eye color but rather yellow like Rayquaza's own eyes. I also couldn't keep it open for very long either as the eye passively drained my aura if I did. According to Steven he felt nervous when I looked at him with the eye as well like if a dragon type was angry.-

As much as I hate to admit it I was wrong. In my hubris I had thought that the man that my daughter had attached herself to was merely just a talented mortal. I have watched my daughter for millennium so I know better than any that she lacked the ability to create these strange crafting methods that her territory is filled with items from. These Zanpakuto in particular are of great concern as with them every mortal in her territory is now more dangerous than most trained mort...

Nick didn't even bring his current body back into the realm as he started breaking down his original body into it's base components. Normally he would just be able to repair the damage and then kickstart the heart again to return life to the body but thanks to Zeus's poison that was impossible as all the blood and flesh of the body had been necrotized. You can't heal dead cells so the entire body had to be scrapped to remove the poison before he had to rebuild the entire thing. -

It was early November on the fifth to be exact when the day to day activity in Nicks territory got shook up. Nick was out at the adventurers guild with Hephaestus gathering data from Zanpakuto users that had achieved Shikai to see how they could tweak the creation of Zanpakuto to better serve their users. During this process a frail looking old man entered the guild and looked to be heading to the counter which was past Nick when Nicks danger senses went off. "PUCHI!" A golden spear tip pierc...

He couldn't be blamed at all as he had definitely noticed how much more advanced Nicks territory was compared to the rest of the world. Hell many foreign powers who saw how things were going for the english isles started imitating Nick with some of their own people to great effect. For example there was now at least twelve different organizations like the adventurers guild that Nick started that operated nearly the same way. That didn't sound like a lot but keep in mind that most places aroun...

While Nick himself was beyond bloodline abilities as a tier five going on seven that didn't mean that it was any less of an important discovery. From what he could understand most bloodline abilities were for a lack of better explanation paths to follow towards divinity. The reason for this was that if one were to focus their progress around their abilities then the domains tied to those same abilities were grasped much faster than those who lacked this direction to grow in. In simple terms b...

Not that he could be blamed considering that besides adjusting the recipes slightly to accommodate the slime instead of the normal ingredients the end result was the same as normal. For a potioneer like Snape this ability was the stuff of wet dreams as it meant damn near endless ingredients for no price at all really. The guy with the ability knew better than to leave Nicks city though as it was the front runner of pioneering and advancement in the world so leaving would be downright stupid.-...

Nick wasn't just teaching the stuff that Hogwarts did though but the basics of magic as he knew it so it was far more in depth and comprehensive. This meant that despite learning extremely fast Celebrimbor was still technically in the first year of Hogwarts in terms of magical skill. Had he learned just the stuff that the school taught he would likely already be approaching the fifth year mark but Nick was making sure the fundamentals were set before allowing him to move on. There were pros a...

It was rather funny to see how the interaction between Hephaestus and Celebrimbor went as the goddess was highly confused by the elf lord. First and foremost he was unlike anything she had ever seen as unlike Nick who was a strange fusion of many races Celebrimbor was pure elf and old as all hell to boot. That last part really bothered her as she had a very hard time wrapping her head around the idea that a race could be innately immortal. Celebrimbor was patient with her however and tried hi...

You know how you can pass by a forest that had been planted by hand and despite it not looking off you can't help but feel something wasn't quite right? Well that was the vibe I was getting from the fog. Even more evidence of my suspicions was that the fog NEVER went beyond a certain point as though it was contained in a invisible box of sorts.

That later of those was something that everyone agreed was not allowed however and Nick along with Dumbledore and Flammel sent saboteurs to destroy the military supplies on regular intervals.

Besides a minor cosmetic adjustment to his daedric body alongside a couple new abilities that he technically could have done in some manner before hand there was nothing really different.

Or at least that was what he tried to do but that sort of news was rather hard not to focus on. Thankfully something happened that distracted him from it as Hephaestus created a crude Asauchi , a weapon soul in a way that was blank until the essence of ones soul was imprinted on it.

Nick found it rather odd that the system itself seemed to be pushing his race towards an unknown direction. This might seem like a matter of coincidences but if you were to put it together even at the start when he received the Celebrimbor style the system "had an error" where Nick started to turn into an elf. That was the first suspicious point in and of itself as despite receiving an additional two more styles nothing similar had happened. Perhaps that made sense for the twilight style but ...
