"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 break the terms anyways as the little bastard has gotten the support of the Flammels , Dumbledore and even the entire royal clan of the vampires."-
"If it was only one of these we might be able to handle the backlash for attacking him but with all three the damage we would suffer is not worth it." The raspy inhuman voice of the elder spoke from under their hood. The woman didn't say anything at that point as she understood just how badly they were outmatched by the supports Nick was gathering for himself. A mid tier four , two tier fives and whatever the royal vampires counted as compared to their own forces that had no tier fours and the only tier five is unable to leave the mana gathering array without risking death.-
Meanwhile the figure of a black haired woman could be seen walking across the top of the sea to the north of the British isles with a smoldering look of rage on it's face. The creature was greatly angered by the fact that it's prey had managed to affect it in such a way and force it away. It , the predator , had been repelled by it's prey. This was an insult like no other in the creatures mind as it fully believed that it's prey should submit for consumption quietly.-
What angered it even further was that the place it had been sent to lacked any substantial magic so the creature suffered hunger pains as it quickly burned through it's supply to escape this predicament. It had thought of apparating back to the land but it's many minds worth of memories told it that would likely use a dangerous amount of it's energy so it was forced to use a low energy means of returning that was far slower. The really infuriating thing though was that it was being observed from far in the sky by what it considered prey but whenever it moved to consume the prey it fled with what the creature knew to be a portkey before another prey took it's place observing.-
Nick was unaware of these things of course as he was dealing with his own work. For example he was storing his astral anvil as well as hammer from the workshop since he needed them for the ballad. The normal anvil in the enchantment room of the manor simply couldn't handle the resonant force of the ballad and would be destroyed. This didn't even consider that after the ballad was started each piece of the armor would start sucking in massive amounts of mana to link together.-
Thankfully for Nick using a ballad enchantment was akin to resonating with the world so all the ambient mana was temporarily at his disposal in the area covered by the phenomena. On the island this was a substantial amount of mana thanks to the array gathering and concentrating it there. Once he got everything together Nick transformed again and returned to the island though before going in he flew over the nearby sea to see if there was any order members hiding nearby. He was in luck as it would have it as there was in fact one hiding under the magical cloaking.-
He instantly blasted that location with a huge amount of fire and lightning which did the trick as whoever it was died before they could figure out they were in danger. After checking the area again and finding nothing out of place Nick was satisfied and flew into the island. It didn't take him very long to arrive in the enchanting room and start setting up the anvil and armor for the ballad enchantment.-
He took an deep breath as he held his hammer and raised it up before striking the cuirass. Much like last time he began to sing and the mana in the air began to dance and sway in tune with his voice. It was a song without words but full of meaning and power as his will and essence resonated with the world with each strike. The life on the island paused regardless if it was a powerful creature or an insect as the resonance rolled over them before getting stopped at the wards for the island and contained within.
