Nanomancer Reborn 161-170

Her current appearance was mysterious in a different way.

Round glasses that seemed to be quite popular for girls in east asia and a face mask that obscured her true beauty. Of course, it only made one want to remove the mask to see what was hidden away.

As for her dress, Natash had decorated it with attachable frills and skirts that completely remade her dress into a hybrid that gave the feeling of a mage's robe. Of course, the colours were mainly black to match her current colour scheme.

As for her other accessories, it was just a bag that contained Yin, who was in egg form, and a spell book.

"Perfect." Natash smiled with satisfaction.

"Ah, if you can, try to act out of the norm for you so that they don't know who you are."

"What kind of persona would you suggest? Playful? Kill hungry? Shy?" Shiro asked.

"Shy!" Natash widened her eyes in excitement.

Nodding her head, Shiro transformed her entire aura in an instant. It was now meek and blended with the surroundings making her very hard to notice.

"Oh wow. And here I thought I was good at disguise." Natash clapped her hands with praise.

"Um… Thanks." Shiro smiled embarrassingly under her mask whilst fidgeting her body slightly as if she was truly a shy girl.

"OH! MAGNIFIQUE!" Natash's eye's glistened.

"Oh my god that just made me wanna hurl." Shiro suddenly said with a face of disgust. Being meek wasn't for her and even trying to act that way made her want to stab someone.

"F*ck it, imma just go with the silent type." She shook her head and corrected her aura one more.

'Note to self, never try the meek type again.'

"Shame. Oh well, the silent type also works. Here's a shade stone. It will hide your name and level from people. One time use item and will only last for 3 hours." Natash sighed and handed her the item.

Entering the auction house, there were people who were naturally curious about who Shiro was but her uninterested blank stare caused them to recoil in fear for a moment.

When they made eye contact, the first thought they had was that she was a doll. No emotions.

To make matters worse, her void black eyes made it even harder to discern her emotions.

After registering the bounty, Shiro adjusted her glasses and left the bounty hall.

However, a group of three blocked her way which attracted the attention of the surrounding members.

"If it isn't too much trouble, can we borrow a little bit of your time?" One of them asked.

 He had short blond hair and blue eyes, a rather handsome face and a charming smile.

Feeling a few jealous stares from the crowd, Shiro couldn't help but roll her eyes.

'Does this miss look like I wanted to talk with this twat?' She thought.

Using Phantom Path, Shiro flicked past them with ease. Her hair fluttered behind her as it left them in shock. Even some of the C class members couldn't pick up her movements.

"Sorry, I'm busy." Shiro said, glancing back at them before walking off.

------------------------------------------------------------------
As she walked through the cave, she realised that she was going deeper into the mountain. The temperature was dropping rapidly as ice could be seen on the cave walls.

Naturally, this didn't bother Shiro since she was a snow girl.

Pressing her palms on the ice, Shiro smiled as she could sense the entire cave system beneath her.

'Interesting… This cave leads to a giant cavity in the mountain where the dungeon portal is. If a large monster breaks out, it could potentially break open the mountain and lead to the collapse of the city above it.'

---------------------------------------------------------------
Looking up at the guards, Shiro adjusted her glasses before a horrifying burst of mana encompassed the entire battlement.

Ice spears started to form in the air and shot towards the guards, stabbing them through the head instantly.

Their bodies froze over and crumbled into dust.

"Seems kinda weak for guards." Shiro muttered whilst glancing at the now empty battlement.
[ICE SPEARS FREEZE GUARDS SOLID AND INSTANTLY TURN THEM INTO DUST]
- CHAPTER 165
-------------------------------------------------------------------
"Seems kinda weak for guards." Shiro muttered whilst glancing at the now empty battlement.

Shaking her head, she walked through the gates and casually snapped her fingers.

Frozen Hell: Azure Hell Fire.

Neon blue orbs of fire flared around her and shot into the shadows of the gate.

"ARGGG!!!"

Without even glancing back, Shiro could tell that all the assassins that were in the shadow were killed.

"Trying to kill this princess while exposing your killing intent like that. Shame." She scoffed.

Once she was pass the gate, she saw a beautiful city that was covered with a thin layer of snow. However, it was eerily quiet with not a single sign of pedestrians.
[DOESN'T EVEN HAVE TO TRY TO NOTICE ASSASSINS]
- CHAPTER 165
---------------------------------------------------------------------
Once she was pass the gate, she saw a beautiful city that was covered with a thin layer of snow. However, it was eerily quiet with not a single sign of pedestrians.

"Ominous." Shiro chuckled slightly.

Taking a deep breath, Shiro raised her hand and gathered mana in her palms.

A magic circle was slowly being created above her. As the second layer of the magic circle was done, more and more mana started to gather in the circle as Shiro furrowed her brows.

Clenching her hand into a fist, a giant snowstorm started to rage through the kingdom.

Sending out her senses to pick up any life signs within the storm, Shiro found quite a few groups of soldiers and hidden assassins.

Grinning slightly, she tapped her necklace and summoned her swords.

Her body flickered away from her spot as the snowstorm slowly died down.

One of the assassins were confused about the sudden appearance of the snowstorm and started to make his way towards the entrance. He wanted to see what had caused the storm. But before he could even react, a sword glided across his throat and silenced him. During his fall down, he couldn't even see the shadow of the assailant.

Dashing across the rooftops, Shiro twisted her body to kill each assassin with efficient moves that wouldn't waste any stamina.

Pivoting on her right leg, she dashed past another assassin while throwing two daggers that pierced their eyes and into their brain.

She wanted to take care of all the assassins first before the soldiers since she could easily kill the soldiers that are bunched up together. However, it wasn't the same for assassins, she would need to go around killing them individually since they were spread out.

 She did this to avoid a situation where the assassins would call the boss in while she was fighting. Even for her, it would be an awkward situation where she could potentially be overwhelmed.

Leaping off the roof of a house, she flipped her body onto the side of a giant cathedral of sorts.

-------------------------------------------------------
Knocking five arrows, Shiro pulled back on the bowstrings and aimed up into the sky.

Narrowing her eyes, she charged up the arrows before firing them into the sky. Five streaks of neon blue lights could be seen drawing a line in the sky before piercing the head of five different assassin.

"That should be all of the assassins." Shiro muttered in satisfaction.

With all the assassins dead, all she needed to do was kill all the soldiers and the first boss should arrive.
[ARROWS HAVE HOMING CAPABILITIES]
- CHAPTER 165
--------------------------------------------------------
Creating two hand cannons with suppressors on the barrel, Shiro flipped off the cathedral and landed softly on the ground.

A squadron of soldiers had coincidentally turned the corner as she landed.

*TSI! TSI! TSI! TSI!

Firing the suppressed hand cannon with optimal accuracy, Shiro killed the entire squad with just headshots.

"Easy kills." Shiro grinned before making her way to the next squad.
[EZ HEADSHOTS]
- CHAPTER 165
--------------------------------------------------------
Appearing behind him, she spun her body clockwise and slammed her sword once more into his barrier.

Watching his MP slowly chip away, Shiro narrowed her eyes and flipped backwards. Flicking her wrists, she threw her swords up and had them float around her while two hand cannons were created in their place.

Opening the bullet cylinder, Shiro inserted two mana disruption bullets, one in each gun.

Feeling danger in front of her, she bent her body backwards to the point that one couldn't believe she managed to keep her balance.

Looking at the spear that passed her face narrowly, Shiro grinned and blew on the spear playfully.

Umak could feel his rage increase as his opponent had the time to smile during a life and death fight.
[PLAYS AROUND WITH A LEVEL 50 BOSS ENEMY]

------------------------------------------------------------
Her sword swung toward him with several copies trailing behind it. Umak raised his spear to block, but to his surprise, he felt no contact with the first sword.

*PUCHI!

"HUH?!?!?!"

Widening his eyes in surprise, the boss was shocked to see the swords slash into his body. He clearly felt no contact with the first swords so they were definitely illusions. And yet, somehow, they were physical and lacerated his flesh easily.

*BOOM!!!

Activating his aura skill to push her away, Umak gritted his teeth in pain and looked at her in wariness.

"What's wrong o'mighty Umak? Can't block a sword?" Shiro chuckled whilst pointing her sword at him.
[SWORD HAZE SKILL ON ASCENDENT DREAM LET'S THEM HIT SOMEONE ACTIVELY GUARDING]
- CHAPTER 166
-----------------------------------------------------------
"Die under the wrath of the fire god!" Umak commanded.

The spear transformed into a streak of red that stabbed towards Shiro, who flipped off the horse and slammed her palms into the ground.

Frozen Hell: Ice Palace!

*KRRR!!!

Feeling a burst of mana that wasn't any weaker than his Smite of the Fire God, Umak widened his eyes in disbelief as he watched a giant ice palace construct itself around him.

*BOOM!!!!!

The spear collided with the palace, chipping away a few layers of the glacial ice.

"How?!?!" He cried out in shock.

"Structural integrity boy. Even though glacial is strong, it can be stronger with the right internal structure." Shiro grinned and pointed at her head.

Even without the benefits of her passives and titles, her ice magic would already be stronger than average due to the fact that she could reinforce the structural integrity with her imagery of the actual spell.

A simple task for her since she could even remember all of the blueprints she seen regarding future tech in her mind.

Of course, the average adventurer would find this task nigh impossible.

"Boy, you know what I like to do to people I fight when given a chance?" Shiro asked with a grin while she sat on her throne.

Umak didn't respond as he stood on guard.

"Che, fine. I'll let the next moment be a surprise." Shiro frowned a little as she flexed her upwards.

-------------------------------------------------------
Arriving at the castle gates, she tapped it gently and froze it over before shattering it into dust.

"No welcoming party? Lame~" Shiro sighed as she walked towards the main hall.

While she knew that all the bosses were there, due to the fact that she could sense a cluster of strong mana signs, she was also a little excited to see what she could do against several bosses.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------
Stepping into the rift once more, she reappeared above them with a pitch black trident in hand.

Calamity Trident!

*BOOM!!!!

The ground broke apart from the force of the trident slamming into the ground. While the three generals managed to dodge the impact head on, they were still stunned nonetheless.

- CHAPTER 167
------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Now it's just me and you boy!" Shiro shouted out with a grin since she was given more room now.

Pivoting on her ankle, she launched her body towards him like a bullet.

Swing her sword at him, all four of the swords were covered with a golden glow that made several copies of the same sword.

In a few short moments, the generals armour was already in tatters due to the fact that he wasn't able to block the swords at all.

- CHAPTER 167
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
Gritting his teeth in frustration, the king decided to accept the current situation and activate the magic.

The temperature around the area dropped as snow started to fall.

"Ice God Kyfir's Fractured Domain!"

"Hou hou~ You dare use ice magic in this princess's presence. And to make it worse, a domain? Man you really are unlucky aren't you?" Shiro chuckled as the king was confused.

"Let me educate you!" She smiled since she could see his confusion.

A burst of mana exploded out from her body, pushing back the general by a few steps.

Slamming her palm into the ground, a spider web of mana strands expanded out from her spot and started to corrode away at the domain.

"Impossible!" Aephium cried out in shock. He could clearly feel the domain being ripped from his control and there was no way he could stop it.

Twisting her palms slightly, a pulse of black mana flowed through the entire formation. Black snow started to fall as it corroded everything it touched. The only exception being Shiro herself.

[Skill Discovered: Ice Demon's Calamitous Domain]

[Added to the Frozen Hell Series]

Ignoring the notifications, Shiro flicked her fingers and created hundreds of ice spears from the snowflakes that were falling.

Thankfully, all she needed to do was to change their shape as the main mana supply had already been taken from the king. If not, her mana links would crumble right around now.

Letting the king deal with the spears, Shiro dashed towards the general once more. She had a small window of time to kill him before the other two generals come as support.

-----------------------------------------------------------------
Flexing her fingers, several strands of wires that were tinged with corruption wrapped around the boss's body and started to eat away at him.

"AR –!"

His scream was cut short when Shiro jammed a sword straight down his throat.

However, she wasn't using the ascendant dream but rather a glacial ice sword. Meaning, she could control its shape however she wanted.

He could feel the ice melt inside his body before coagulating itself into a different shape. It was something that bore a resemblance to a spiked ball that had hooks of varying lengths instead of normal spikes.

"Ever heard of disembowelment?" Shiro grinned before standing on his shoulders and pulled back on the handle.

*PUCHI!!!!!

Just as the mist cleared up, the king was shocked to see one of his general's dead with most of his internal organs ripped out from his mouth.

Due to the amount of force she used to pull the weapon out, the blood spewed everywhere, especially onto her body.

--------------------------------------------------------------
Waiting patiently in line, she took this chance to scan her surroundings a little.

'Most of the people here are below level 10. A single kick from me would kill them.' She thought, looking at the people that were queueing up with her.
[A SINGLE KICK OF SHIRO'S CAN KILL LEVEL 10s]

----------------------------------------------------------------------
"Indeed. I shall cut the pleasantries since I believe every second is important for you. Bring in my youngest daughter." The king ordered.

Just as he laid down this order, the gates opened once more to reveal a young teen with her hair tied up into a ponytail. She had golden eyes along with light blue hair.

Wearing a modest combat dress, she had a sword hung on her waist.

"Is she my new teacher? Will she leave like the others because they're weak?" She huffed whilst glaring at Shiro.

Shiro raised her eyebrows seeing her attitude.

"Please excuse my daughter, her personality had been like this since she was young." The king smiled apologetically.

"No worries no worries." Shiro chuckled.

"Oi you! You don't feel strong. In fact, I don't feel anything so that means you must be very weak." Lisandra called out to Shiro.

'She can get a grasp on other people's strength?' Shiro wondered to herself whilst glancing at her stats.

[Lisandra LVL 22 – Imperial Magic Swordswoman]

"I like to believe that I'm strong. It's just that I'm suppressing myself right now." Shiro chuckled as she rubbed her nose. The best way to pacify people like Lisandra in her opinion was to prove that you are more capable than her.

"Lies! Hmph, even father's guards have an aura when they suppress themselves. But you don't." Lisandra shook her head.

"Hmm, is it ok if I do a small demonstration your highness?" Shiro asked, glancing back at the king.

"Go ahead, I allow it." The king smiled since Shiro was the only tutor left that could possibly handle his daughter. The other tutors were completely overwhelmed by her in terms of magic and swordsmanship.

'If the rumours are true, she should be a master of both swordsmanship and magic.' He thought whilst narrowing his eyes.

"Let's see… how about I stop controlling my aura so that you can feel it yourself." Shiro smiled.

"What do yo-"

Before she could even continue her words, a horrific burst of pressure erupted out from Shiro.

Fear overwhelmed the guards as they readied their weapons instantly. Their face pale with fright as sweat dripped from their hands onto their weapons.

"Fuu… that should be fine right?" Shiro chuckled as she suppressed her aura once more.

Lisandra was currently sitting on the floor since her legs gave up under her.

Trying to stand up, she was shocked to see that her strength seemed to have disappeared.

"Eh? Why can't I move." She asked as her voice quivered slightly.

"I believe your body is reacting to my strength. Fufufu, does that prove I'm strong now?" Shiro smiled.

Turning around to see a pale king and queen along with frightful guards, Shiro coughed slightly.

"Was that a little too much?" Shiro asked whilst scratching her cheeks a little.

'You call that a little!?!?' They cried out in their minds since it was like a powerful monster suddenly descended in the middle of the hall. They weren't wrong, but they didn't know that.

"So what will I be teaching her and what's my payment?" Shiro asked with a smile.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Here I come!" Lisandra shouted out as she dashed towards her.

'Hou~ She's fast for a level 22.' Shiro thought as she raised her sword up to parry.

However, just as her sword was about to collide with Lisandra's sword, Lisandra's eyes glowed slightly before her body halted in mid air and transferred her attack into an uppercut that countered Shiro's guard.

*DANG!

Lisandra widened her eyes in joy when she saw Shiro adjust herself quickly to block the sword.

*DANG DANG DANG DANG DANG!

Swinging her sword continuously, Lisandra never felt so happy before.

She could tell that Shiro was able to block her sword with ease.

"A little rough around the corners, but not bad. Not bad at all." Shiro smiled while casually parrying one of Lisandra's attacks.

"But is your defence up to par?" She chuckled.

Stomping down on her foot, Shiro broke Lisandra's guard by flicking her sword upwards.

Bringing her hand towards her face, Shiro narrowed her eyes as she aimed the sword towards Lisandra and pierced towards her.

With her sword still flying through the air, Lisandra knew that she had to do something fast.

"HA!" Aiming her palm downwards, she released a blast of air that propelled her upwards towards her sword.

"Not bad, but could be better." Shiro smiled.

*****

As the youngest member of the royal family, Lisandra was doted upon by everyone in the castle. However, she herself didn't want that hence, she took up swordsmanship.

But as she continued to use the sword, she started to enjoy it and it became her hobby. She enjoyed challenging all of the soldiers in the castle to the point it became a routine. But as the soldiers sparred with her, they slowly realised that they had to become serious as to not embarrass themselves.

Before they knew it, Lisandra was already defeating them in spars even though she's only level 22.

The king heard about this predicament and had hired tutors to help her out but all of them quit mid way due to the fact that they simply could not keep up with Lisandra.

--------------------------------------------------------------
Ever since coming to this quest world, Shiro noticed that she could use all of her skills. Even Nanomancer.

Meaning she could leave devices around the place and listen to any gossip that would drift around. Naturally, that involved the main throne room where she heard the king talk about how the demons were constantly sieging this kingdom.

Looking towards the castle, Shiro narrowed her eyes as her body flickered away.

She wasn't going to question the king and queen just yet since she wanted to understand some background information first.
[CAN CREATE NANO DEVICES TO RECORD CONVOS AND SHIT]

----------------------------------------------------------
Landing on the 17th floor without too much trouble, she looked at some of the books available.

"World history, Besinium History, Elf history, Fericia history…" She muttered while scanning through all of the books.

However, she frowned when she felt a presence hid itself in the shadows.

"Why are you even watching me? I'll let you go this time. Tell the king that I don't really like having people follow me." Shiro said as the guard hidden in the shadows paused in shock.

'How did she notice me?' He thought in confusion.

"OI, did you not hear me the first time? Do you want me to repeat myself?" Shiro narrowed her eyes as she flickered in front of the person.

Slashing towards her on instinct, the guard fell backwards in shock.

*Ping~

The dagger shattered into ice dust as Shiro casually blew on it with icy breath. It was just a simple green grade dagger, nothing special.

"Well?" Shiro asked against after there were no reply.

"U-understood." The guard nodded his head quickly as he left in a hurry.

Shutting the book in her hands, Shiro glanced out of the window to check the time.

"The day is still young. I should be able to sneak into the private library of the king if he has one." She muttered.

Flexing her fingers, a device appeared in her palms. It was a similar device to the one she had used to find out about the hidden tunnels used by Black Monarchy back in New York.

However, unlike the one she made before, this one was more powerful and had a much bigger range.

Placing it on the library wall, she allowed it to send pulses through the entire castle. Soon, a 3d map could be seen in front of her.

"Heh~ So the king does have one. Though the private library is in a hidden chamber inside his room. I'll need to be quick." She muttered before leaving the library.

"Thank you." Shiro smiled as she received the map.

Entering the rift, she left the room instantly.

"How does she even do that?" The king muttered in confusion since her entire presence disappeared in an instant.

It wasn't like the assassin's stealth since he could still somewhat track where they are. But for Shiro, it was as if she entered another dimension. Little did he know that it was exactly what she did.
