Dusting her hands, Shiro scoffed as she looked at the pool of blood that coated the bed.
Since it was only a few ‘minutes’ for her compared to the year that Natia had to experience, none of the guards had come to check up on her just yet.
“I should head back now.” Shiro muttered as she waved her finger, retracting all of the needles spread around the room.
Right now, she could only make three needles and she had even received a skill for this.
[Divine Runic Needles]
Needles carved with the Runic Language of the Gods. Depending on your understanding, each needle will have its own effects. The potency of the needles also depends on enemy resistances and strength.
Current Needles: Paralytic Needle, Mana Shredder Needle, Perception Enhancement Needle.
Cost: 10% of mana for each needle.
Not all of the needles were harmful since the Perception Enhancement Needle also works for her if she fine tunes the perception of time a little. That way, there’s more ‘time’ to react to an attack during a fight.
After killing Natia, even if she was weakened, her level had increased with most of the EXP going to Nan Tian since he contributed the most.
This raised her level only by 5 since she was level 760.

However, despite her monstrous stats, she knew that she was no match for gods just yet. Even if she is technically classified as a Demi God, she knew that real ones were much stronger.
Shaking her head, she glanced back at the safehouse and saw the guards in a panic.
‘They must have got the notification that their Queen is dead. Well it’s not my problem anymore.’ Shiro thought to herself as she opened a portal and teleported back to the temple.
Seeing that everyone was still here treating Nan Tian’s injuries, Shiro sighed in relief.
She was a little worried about their safety hence why she killed the Queen quickly otherwise she would have tortured her for a bit longer than just a few minutes.
“Seems like you’re done with everything.” Silvia said as Shiro nodded her head.
“Mn I have. There’s going to be one less Queen in the event.” Shiro replied, walking next to Nan Tian.
Sitting down next to him, she drank a mana potion and activated analysis to see if she could pinpoint the origin point of his backlash. After studying some of the runes, she had a rough idea of how to possibly treat the backlash but she wasn’t sure.
It was a theory for now so she wanted to see if it was possible.
However, even after drawing some runes to see if she could spot his backlash, she saw nothing.
“Hmm… Silvia, you and the others can start reflecting on the knowledge you gained and perhaps help one another. If any of you can access the secondary trial somehow, it’ll be beneficial for us.” Shiro said as Silvia nodded her head.
“Sure. We do have a few restrictions that we have to follow with this knowledge but it doesn’t restrict us from sharing with people that already know.” Silvia shrugged.
“As for the secondary trial… we don’t have a clue just yet.”
“That’s fine. We’ll use this place as a temporary base since Nan Tian’s injured. We’ll camp for a day and once he’s woken up, we’ll make our way back to Asharia so that we can prepare for the event.” Shiro said as Silvia nodded.
While Silvia and the other healers were trading knowledge with one another, Shiro looked after Nan Tian.
Sitting next to him, she couldn’t help but sigh.
‘I suppose this is what he felt when he was looking after me.’ Shiro thought to herself.
###
“Hng….” Groaning softly, Nan Tian opened his eyes slowly as he saw Shiro reading a book above him.
Noticing that he was resting his head on her leg right now while she was reading, he wanted to sit up when her finger pressed down on his head.
“Just rest. You’ve already overexerted yourself by almost killing a Queen.” Shiro said as she didn’t look away from her book.
“Fine. This is a rather interesting situation isn’t it? Normally it’ll be the other way around.” Nan Tian chuckled as Shiro shrugged.
“Well who told you to stack berserk skills without a recovery passive like I do.” Shiro rolled her eyes as she glanced down.
“What can I say? I can’t exactly let them ambush you after all of you come out of that trial now can I?” Nan Tian smiled as Shiro flicked his head.
“True but still. What do you think I would do if you died on me.” Shiro sighed.
“Cause a massacre?” Nan Tian joked as Shiro nodded her head.
“That and I’ll ask Hades to bring your soul back if I couldn’t get to you in time. If you’re not around what do you think would happen to my trauma?” Shiro glanced to the side while trying to focus back on her book once more.
“This might be asking too much but do you mind if I enjoy this a little longer?” Nan Tian asked with a small smile.
“Sure. You need some rest anyways. Don’t do anything strange or else I’ll hit you.”
“I wouldn’t dare.” Nan Tian chuckled.
Resting for a while, he wanted to get up once more but Shiro pressed her finger against his head again.
“More rest.” Shiro lectured since he had only laid down for a little while.
“I think you can spare enough time for me to go back to Asharia.” Nan Tian forced a smile as Shiro narrowed her eyes.
Drinking a mana potion, Shiro created a pink wheelchair next to them.
“This is…?”
“Get in.” Shiro smiled as this was her revenge.
“But-“
“Did I stutter?” Shiro asked, pointing a gun at Nan Tian with a sweet smile.
“I shall gracefully accept this wheelchair.” Nan Tian sighed.
Allowing him to stand up, Shiro watched as he sat down on the wheelchair but the moment he did a belt wrapped around his waist as Shiro snapped her finger a second time.
Revealing two chambers that released rainbow trails behind them, Shiro had the wheelchair follow her as she walked towards the rest of the group.
“Everyone pack up, we’re going back to the city now.” Shiro called out as they all turned around.
But the moment they did, they froze up in shock seeing Nan Tian’s wheelchair pumping out rainbow glitter to a beat.
“This is?” Silvia raised an eyebrow.
“A normal wheelchair. Is there a problem?” Shiro smiled as Silvia paused but shook her head.
She figured that it was probably her way of getting revenge for all of the wheelchairs that Nan Tian had given her.
“Nope. We’re ready anytime.” Silvia smiled as Shiro nodded her head.
“Good. I’ll open a portal no-“
Before she could even finish, she felt her mana realm stir as energy started to fill her body.
Widening her eyes, she looked at Nan Tian and Silvia.
“My mana realm finished evolving.”
