Flicking her blade free of the blood of monsters, Shiro glanced at her level and frowned.
After grinding for a while, she had only levelled up twice despite the fact that she had double EXP.
“I suppose it’s only normal. I’m only challenging level 100 dungeons after all. I can’t exactly go for B classed dungeons since that’s just asking for death.” Shiro muttered with a shake of her head.
Quickly allocating her points, her MP had increased past the 23 million mark.

Her dungeon grinding had brought her new equipment along with materials however they weren’t what she was looking for so she set them aside for now.
‘Hmm… it’s been a few days now. The elders have been collecting mana every day while the rest have pretty much cleaned up the debris from the fight. All that’s left to do is to rebuild some of the buildings and all will be back to normal. They’ve already started to teach Cyril on how to become a good queen so that should be sorted in the future as well.’ She thought to herself.
{True. After a few more days at the most, all your tasks in Miriel should be sorted and we can leave.} Nimue nodded.
‘Indeed.’
Changing her clothes back to the casual white dress and hat, she left the dungeon and sat in a nearby café that had reopened just yesterday.
Ordering some juice and a few snacks she enjoyed herself wholeheartedly.
She had to admit that a carefree life without worry about political conflicts and life threatening situations was quite relaxing. She was allowed to clear dungeons and level up freely.
‘I wonder when Helion will arrive. It’s been two days now.’ Shiro thought to herself.
After finishing her small snack, she left the café and made her way back to the castle.
However, before she entered the castle, she felt her phone vibrate for a moment and checked her notifications.
‘Hm well speaking of Helion, here he is right now.’
[Helion: I’ve found a party that was heading to Miriel so I’m coming to see you now.]
[Shiro: Ok, I’ll wait for you in the teleport shrine. If you see a beauty in a white dress and a hat, that’s me.]
[Helion: Pft, as if haha.]
[Shiro: Trust me. You’ll be surprised.]
[Helion: Sure, then I await that surprise. See you soon.]
[Shiro: See ya.]
Putting her phone away with a smile, Shiro shook her head and wondered what she could do in order to shock Helion some more.
{I’d say your current appearance would be shocking enough as it is. Anymore and the poor man might get a heart attack.} Nimue chuckled.
‘Oh I’m sure he’ll be fine.’
{I wouldn’t be so sure my queen.}
Smiling at Nimue’s shenanigans, Shiro made her way towards the teleport shrine.
Once she arrived, she leaned on one of the walls and waited for Helion’s arrival. Her appearance naturally charmed the new adventurers that were pouring into the city due to her internet fame.
Some wanted to talk to her but Shiro would scare them off a little using some blood l.u.s.t.
While it may be polite to talk to them and ask them to leave, she didn’t want to waste so much time talking to so many people on how they shouldn’t disturb her. The best way would be to just release her blood l.u.s.t.
That way, everyone will get the message ‘approach me and I may just crush your throat~♡’.
After waiting for a short while, she caught a glimpse of a familiar figure talking to a few people.
Looking at his class, she realised that he must have disguised it with a tool so that he wouldn’t be advertising his true class carelessly.
‘Well since he’s talking, I’m sure it’s perfect for me to introduce myself.’ Shiro thought with a grin.
###
“Thank you very much once again. I’ll be going to look for my friend now. She claims that she’s now a beauty that’s going to shock me which I doubt haha.” Helion laughed.
He wasn’t surprised at Shiro’s beauty anymore since he had interacted with her for a while now. Each time she had some slight changes but most things stayed the same. Her bust. And unfortunately, in his opinion, it may stay that way forever.
“Don’t be so sure about that. You’ll be surprised at how much people’s appearances change with each class up. Who knows, she may just cause you to worship her.”
“Nah. Last time I checked, which wasn’t too long ago, she is still far from reaching B class. So unless she creates a miracle, I doubt her appearance will change a lot.” Helion replied with a smile.
“Hou hou~ Are you sure? I think my appearance has changed quite a bit since we’ve last spoken.” Shiro’s voice rang out as she placed her hand on Helion’s shoulder.
“Ah what do you mean. I can guarantee that you’re still flat as ever Shi…. ro?” Helion chuckled and turned around.
Seeing Shiro’s a.d.u.l.t appearance, Helion couldn’t help but rub his eyes and do a double take just to make sure he wasn’t hallucinating.
*CRACK!
“Oi, who did you say was flat as ever again?” She asked with an annoyed smile.
“GAH!!! I’m sorry!!” Helion quickly apologised since he could clearly feel her grip strength increase with each passing second.
“Hello, I’m Helion’s friend, Shiro. Nice to meet you and thanks for bringing him to Miriel.” Shiro said with a smile.
“Ah right, no problem. It’s our pleasure.” One of the adventurers replied with a slight blush.
“Anyways, it’s a busy day so we’ll let you do your thing. Let’s go Helion, we have much to do as well.” Shiro said as she pulled Helion aside and left the teleport shrine.

“Gah I said I’m sorry!” Helion cried out while trying to protect his poor shoulders from breaking.
“Hmph, if I didn’t undergo a change, I would have definitely broken a bone then healed it up you know.” Shiro clicked her tongue.
“Sheesh. Your appearance changed but you’re still as violent as ever.” Helion protested while massaging his aching body.
“If only you could be gentle like when you supported my body after trying to upgrade your equipment.”
“Hou hou, seems like you’ve grown some balls since the last time I saw you. Want a kick?” Shiro clicked her tongue.
“Nah I’ll be fine *cough*. So anyways, where shall we go then? Like last time, I doubt you’ll want me to upgrade your item outside of the dungeons.”
“Come with me, I’ll take you to a decent dungeon where you can focus on work..”
Showing Helion to the lowest level dungeon, they had the work station set up and ready to go.
“By the way, your level has shot up quite a bit since the last time I saw you. What even happened?” Helion asked curiously.
“Oh you know, just war stuff. I got lucky and killed a bunch of level 100’s so naturally my experience shot up.” Shiro replied with a shrug.
“Jeez you make it sound so easy. I’m sure that if anyone else tried what you did, they’d be dead on so many levels.” Helion rolled his eyes.
There was one thing that people needed to take note of when friending Shiro. Her casual statements are equal to miracles for normal people. If one was to try to recreate her acts, it would be no different from suicide.
{Well he’s not wrong you know. If anyone else tried to kill the monster along with the first prince, they’ll be dead before they even know it.}
‘True.’
Once they got set up, Helion gestured for Shiro to bring out her armour along with the materials.
“I must warn you, this is probably the last time I’ll try to upgrade your armour to red unless I have a 100% guarantee. There are only 5 uses on this hammer, 4 left if you count last time and I can only afford to risk it so many times. So are you sure you want me to try to upgrade this armour?” He asked just to make sure.
“Yes I am.”
“Alright, here goes nothing.”
