Nanomancer Reborn – I’ve Become A Snow Girl? Chapter 104

Chapter 104 Gold VIP

“All of these have no requirements?!” Alfred cried out.

[None.] Shiro smiled.

“Hmm… that means even level 20’s can equip these items. However, it’s mostly a matter of if they’re able to carry the weapons since there is obviously the weight of the weapons hindering them. Otherwise, it is completely restriction free! Not only that, but the innate attribute of life steal and even mana leech makes these items very valuable.” Alfred analysed.

“Are you sure you want to put these out for auction? Wouldn’t you have more use for them?” Alfred asked, unsure as to why she was willing to part with these items.

Every item had a durability value. Over time, items would slowly break apart causing problems during a fight. The damage they took would eventually pass the threshold of the durability and break the item.

This was why most adventurers would carry more than two sets of items on them at all times. Weapons, armours and accessories.

And yet, just in this pile, he was able to see several sets of decent weaponry along with armour. While the skills they came with were rather mundane, the base grade and innate stat numbers of the weapon made them valuable.

There were two reasons as to why the little girl in front of him would even take these out.

‘Either she already has items that are worth the same or even more than those items or that she doesn’t know their true value.’ Alfred thought to himself. However, when he saw her calm demeanour, he knew that she understood the true value of the items.

Not only that, the calmness in her eyes weren’t something often seen in young adventurers. Especially not any around her age.

‘Her files states that she is around the age of 13. But, her calm yet oppressive aura says otherwise.’ Alfred furrowed his brows slightly. The last time he saw anyone with a remotely similar aura she had now was when he observed a level 100+ government official.

And even then, he was only calm since he could kill everyone on site with a swipe of his hand. This girl in front of him, on the other hand, was only level 43 in the presence of level 50’s. And to make matters worse, his aura paled in comparison to this girl.

[Yes, I would like to put these on auction. However, I do hope that I am given a second-floor room to oversee the auction.] Shiro smiled calmly.

“Of course. Let me just inspect the rest of these items.” Alfred nodded.

The more he looked through the items, the more amazed and shocked he was. Hardly any of the items lacked the traits of either life steal or mana leech. In addition to this, none of them had restrictions so even low level adventurers could equip these which in turn would lower the mortality rate.

For D classed adventurer’s, those were priceless lifesaver items that would keep them safe in the dungeons.

Not only that, but they could also help several peak D class adventurer’s to finally complete the requirements to advance onto the next class.

After going through all of the loot, Alfred could only describe this pile of loot as borderline priceless.

“The items here are more than enough to grant you a spot of the second floor. But, you do realise that if you exposed this to other adventurer’s, the chances of them wanting to kill you for these items increases. And if you didn’t know already, the law of killing is out the window on every auction night. If they knew that you had these, you would have parties of level 50 adventurer’s coming for your head. Plus, what’s to say that I won’t just take these items right here and now.” Alfred said seriously as he wanted to give her a fair warning.

Hearing what he had said, Shiro grinned coldly as she let a little bit of her killing intent leak out.

[If that was the case, I’ll be glad to show them exactly how I managed to survive a level 50 mutated dungeon.]

Alfred paled when he felt the sliver of killing intent. Believing that Shiro only let it leak out since she couldn’t control it properly, he knew that she was dead serious about fighting level 50’s should it come to that.

“Well, I’m already retired so I have no use for any of these items. But I do need to warn you to not casually expose your loot to just anyone. The moment some of these items catches the attention of a few unlawful people, they wouldn’t think twice about killing you for the items. While you might be able to handle level 50’s, what about level 60? Or even level 70?” Alfred reminded once more as he took out a laptop and started to tap away.

Shiro nodded since she too knew that carelessly exposing her loot would bring her grave danger. However, if only he knew that she was still holding back a large portion of the loot that she had earned.

What he called ‘borderline priceless’ was only around 20% of her loot. Not only that, but it was mostly the bad loot that she had collected.

She only added a few pieces of high quality equipment to guarantee her spot on the second floor. She didn’t have any use for them anyways, she already had her Blood Crystal Armour set.

Unfortunately, she wasn’t able to upgrade it since it would devour the set bonus and make it unusable. That was one of the smaller down sides to nanotech armour, she wasn’t able to make any set equipment.

After waiting a few short moments for Alfred to finish tapping away at his laptop, an assistant walked into he room and handed him a few files.

“Alright, I’ve registered everything and the manager has agreed to give you a spot on the second floor. Not only that, a few of your items would be featured near the end of the auction along with our main attractions.” Alfred said as he handed her a sheet of paper to make sure that everything was correct.

“Not only that, but here is the Gold VIP Auction Card that allows you a loan of 150 million USD with no interest and access to the second floor rooms. The debt can be paid in items as well.”

Receiving both the card and sheet of paper, Shiro glanced at the paper briefly and memorised all of its contents.

[Everything is correct. I believe I can go to the second floor of the auction hall now or do I have to wait?] Shiro asked.

“You may go right now if you wish. Ah but do remember, that as the paper had stated, the auction house will take 5% of the profits.” Alfred smiled apologetically since he couldn’t choose how much the auction house took. 5% was quite high for an auction house to take from the overall profits. Normally it would be 1-3% instead of 5%.

[It’s fine.] Shiro nodded and stood up.

She was mostly just selling the items to help her get to the second floor. Everything else was just a bonus.

Walking into the spacious auction hall, Shiro made her way up to the second floor. Her appearance caused a slight commotion since they never expected a small girl to have access to the second floor. However, most of the people only guessed that she was there just to look around.

“Excuse me ma’am. But I need proof to let you enter the second floor.” A staff asked as he stopped her from going up.

Shiro nodded and pulled out the gold VIP card.

“I’m sorry for holding you back, enjoy your stay ma’am.” The staff nodded and bowed while gesturing for her to proceed onto the second floor.

Upon arriving at the second floor, Shiro saw that quite a few rooms were already occupied.

‘Seems like the purple items attracted a lot of attention this time.’

Looking down at her VIP card, she saw that she was in room 25. After walking for a short moment, she entered the room.

Unsurprisingly, the room was decorated lavishly with beautifully crafted furniture and crystal chandeliers. The rooms were spacious and she was able to have a good view of the entire auction hall.

Nodding in satisfaction, Shiro sat down on one of the chairs that gave her the best view of the entire place. Unfortunately, she had to pull it a little closer to the edge since the railings weren’t made with her height in mind.

Her white hair caused quite a few pairs of eyes to turn to her since it contrasted against the dark walls.

“When did we have such a beautiful kid on the second floor?”

The most up-to-date novels are published on lightnovelworld[.]com

“Do you think she’s part of the refugees? I haven’t seen her around at all.”

“Jonathan, go gather some information about her. It’s rather odd for a refugee to be able to enter the second floor this quickly. Especially since it’s very hard to have a bank of more than 250 million USD when you’re in a city such as New York.”

Ignoring the small commotion that started due to her appearance, Shiro checked back at the forums to see how the thread was going. It would be best if she could acquire the jade ice quicker. That way, she would need to kill less and avoid the chances of failing her star up.

When she opened the thread, she was surprised to see a few people stating that she could probably ask for some from a high ranking member of the alchemist’s association. This was due to the fact that the material was rather precious since they could be made into empowering potions that worked extremely well in ice type dungeons.

‘Hmm… wasn’t Alfred a Grand Alchemist? I could probably ask him after the auction for the Jade Ice. Problem being, if he is willing to sell it to me.’ Shiro thought to herself.

Scrolling through a few of the replies, she found that there was a small vein of Jade Ice not too far away form the city of Cairosa.

The only thing stopping them from harvesting the Jade Ice was due to the fact that the vein was protected by a level 65 Elite grade monster.

Not only that, but because the monster wasn’t restrained by the dungeon, it was many times stronger than its dungeon counterpart.

‘I can probably try use my martial arts to steal a few chunks of the Jade Ice if I’m not able to buy any from Alfred. That leaves only one task left, I need to create another skill.’

Creating skills was just a case of making what you imagine a reality. The hardest part about this was for the system to recognise the potential of the skill and actually register it.

An example being her Frozen Slumber skill. Pre-registration, the skill had two magic circles that restrained the monster while it slowly killed them. But, after it was registered as part of the Frozen Hell Series of spells, the skill had increased its magic circles to a total of six which massively increased the spell’s power.

“Hmm… what to do… what to do…” Shiro muttered. Even in her past life, she had hardly created any skills due to the fact that most of her combat prowess came from what she could create and her body movement.

From what she could tell, the Frozen Hell series was just a fluke that she had somehow managed to stumble across.

“Since the Frozen Slumber skill is mostly a control type area of effect skill, I should probably try to make a single target skill that heavily emphasises on my attacking power.”

Rubbing her finger on Yin’s head, Shiro pondered about what the skill could be whilst waiting for the auction to start.

‘The ice element is primarily focused on control. Even the most offensive skill I know that belongs in the ice element, when boiled down, is just freezing someone really quickly. That being said, I can probably make something that travels straight to the heart and freeze it. They may have strong outside defences but on the inside they’re defenceless.’

Raising a finger, Shiro closed her eyes and started to visualise the skill that she wanted to create. However, even though her visualisation was strong, her body simply couldn’t keep up with the demand.

Her eyes snapped open as she pulled out a towel and brought it to her mouth.

“KAUH!”

Coughing out a mouthful of blood, Shiro winced at the pain.

“Tsk, god damn it.” She muttered. What she had visualised was a super condensed snowflake that was very hard to melt. What would happen was that the snowflake would be inhaled by her enemies and eventually pass by the heart. The moment it did, it would expand itself to pierce the heart whilst also freezing the body from the inside out.

Unfortunately, her mana links couldn’t stand the pressure of creating the snowflakes that would essentially one hit kill anyone who breathed near her.

That being the case, she would also need to watch out for friendly fire. After all, a skill wouldn’t be good if it also killed your teammates.

Wiping the blood from her mouth, Shiro took a deep breath and waited for the auction to start.
