The second floor was just as easy as the first. Charging up her bow, she managed to eradicate the millipede's armour and skewer it easily.
As for the final boss…
Yin Style Phantom Arts: 1st Phantom – Illusionary Phantom.
Crouching low on the ground, Shiro formed a bow in her hand whilst running around the queen.
Neon Blue mana gathered into an arrow as Shiro pulled back on the string.
Sensing danger, the queen flared her mana as a translucent barrier erected around her.
'Penetrate!' Shiro thought as she fired the arrow.
*BOOM PING!
The arrow penetrated the shield due to how close Shiro fired the arrow.
Not even waiting to see how the damage was, Shiro stomped down as 4 ice spears pierced upwards and lifted up the queen.
The queen struggled but Shiro's arrow was already notched and ready to be fired.
Aiming at the anus of the queen, Shiro grinned.
"This is for my arm." She muttered.
*BOOM!
The arrow fired as it was aimed perfectly at the queen's anus. Unable to react, she could only wait upon her death due to an arrow up her ass.
*CRRRR!!!!!!!
The cry of the was filled with pain as Yin looked away in pity.
Seeing that the queen wasn't dead. Shiro dissembled the bow as she created a spear.
Twirling it in her palm, Shiro stabbed it towards the queen's ass.
Making sure it penetrated deeply, Shiro twisted the spear as it exploded like a grenade and destroyed the queen's insides.
HP: 0/200,000
The queen mostly relied on her mana for her shield to defeat her opponents in a war of attrition. Yet, Shiro destroyed that option straight away. This made the queen an easy kill as her main weapon was destroyed.
'How fast the tables turn huh?' Shiro thought.
The entire Dungeon run took her a few hours as she didn't focus on collecting the loot. Harvesting the queen, Shiro threw the mana stone into her mouth and left for the 2nd floor with Yin.
The collection itself took longer as Shiro had to search all of the kills she got to get the mana stones.
In the end, she managed to collect over 60 D ranked mana stones.
"Little Yin. You get 25 I get 35 ok?" Shiro said as Yin nodded.
Chirping happily, she greedily ate up 3 D ranked mana stones before falling asleep again.
"Che so lazy. Really wonder where you get this trait from." Shiro giggled.
However, the main harvest from the Dungeon was reaching level 30.

[Snow Girl ★★]
Kill 20 Ice elemental Based LVL 30 bosses
30 Ice Cores
Reach Tier 2 attunement in Ice element
The first two was easy for her as she had her Nanomancer class to help her out.
However, she had no idea where to get the Tier 2 attunement in the ice element.
She's heard of reaching higher levels of synergy with your respective elements, hence the Elemental True Armour.
However, Elemental True Armour only came when one reached Tier 3 in their element.
Even now, Shiro doubts her attunement would be Tier 1 if not for her race advantage.
Different races get certain advantages. Now that she was a monster, she knew the hard work one had to put into upgrading. At least it was much harder for a monster.
Not only did you have to first break out of the Dungeon's control, but you also had to leave the Dungeon. Survive the city, and only then could you start to evolve. Yet for these upgrade requirements, they'll be hard to achieve outside of a Dungeon.
To access a Dungeon, one had to sneak through a city to reach it. It wasn't easy. The life of a monster that is.
Leaving the Dungeon, Shiro decided to look up attunement regarding the ice element.
According to the web, there is a government-funded attunement hall. However, the tickets to go inside weren't easy to get a hold of.
The easiest way to get an entrance ticket to the attunement halls is through the mage's association.
They have the main access since mages need the attunement more often than warriors and other non-magic based classes.
"Little Yin. Do you think I can get any other attunement? Maybe metal since my class." Shiro said as Yin chirped in agreement.
"Ai, if only you can talk." Shiro chuckled.
However, before she went to the mage's association, she wanted to go pick up the outfit from Aarim first.
Entering the shop once more, Shiro paused when she saw a familiar face.
[Hey Liam.] Shiro smiled awkwardly. Liam stood frozen as he dropped whatever he had in his hands.
[I'll just look for Aarim.] Shiro typed as she walked away.
"Hold on! This is just a misunderstanding!" Liam cried out as he walked over to her.
[Right…]
"Liam. No need to shock her too much. You'll seem more suspicious if you get into a panic." Aarim said as she giggled.
"Shiro, my brother is here just to check up on me." Aarim smiled.
[Brother?]
"Yeah. I'm her brother." Liam shrugged sitting down. He was just checking up on her to make sure she was making the bare minimum so that she could pass the month. Yet just as he was waiting for her to get the monthly sales, Shiro walked in on him tidying up the store a little.
[Oh I see.] Shiro sighed. When she first saw Liam, she had a good impression of him. He didn't seem like anyone who would visit this kind of store in broad daylight.
"I presume you're here to get your outfit and your commission." Aarim smiled.
[Yes. How far along is the outfit for my friend?] Shiro asked.
"Almost done If you just give me an hour or so I'll be finished." Aarim smiled.
"Liam, help me out. Go to the 2nd floor, third chest to the left. There should be a set of clothes there. They're for Shiro." Aarim gestured towards Liam.
Liam nodded before heading upstairs.
[So you two are siblings?] Shiro asked.
She was curious as Liam and Aarim looked nothing alike.
"We're siblings but not blood-related. I was adopted into the family and now it's just me and Liam left. Our parents died a while back." Aarim shrugged.
[I see.] Shiro nodded.
With what Aarim said, the atmosphere instantly turned to awkward as Shiro didn't really know what to say.
The short time yet long silence felt agonising for Shiro as Liam finally returned with her outfit.
[How much is it?] Shiro asked.
"Nothing. You paid me by being my model." Aarim smiled. It wasn't easy to have a young model which didn't run the moment Aarim lead them to her shop. So for Shiro t still model for her saved her a lot of time.
[Hmm I don't want to owe you anything. Just tell me how much it costs.]
"Che, just like the muscle brain said. 400 thousand USD for both the current outfit and the one in the making." Aarim shrugged.
Shiro nodded as she paid the full amount.
[Is it ok if I go change into my outfit now?]
"Sure. Same as last time, just go to my studio." Aarim said pointing at the door.
"You two do what you need to do. I'll go back to my shift now." Liam said as he walked out.
[See you.]
"Bye."
Liam left the store as it was just Shiro and Aarim left.
"Welp. I should go continue to make the dress now." Aarim said standing up.
Shiro nodded whilst she made her way to the other room.
Changing her outfit, she looked into the mirror and inspected herself.
She wore a black shirt, short black jeans, white stocking, white boots, a large white robe and a pair of white gloves. The robe had a crystal clip in the centre as it held the robe together.
Flipping up the hood, Shiro liked how she could extend the hood out so it hid her face. The designed allowed for that.
Pulling back her hood, Yin cried out in displeasure as the new outfit didn't have any pockets for her to sleep in.
"Ai calm down little Yin. You have space here see?" Shiro said pointing at her sleeves and the inside of her hood. There was enough room for Yin to rest comfily.
Chirping lightly, Yin burrowed himself into her hood as her head would occasionally peak out.
Chuckling slightly, Shiro rubbed her head.
Walking back to the main room, Aarim was still making the outfit.
"It's almost done." She said with a shrug of her shoulders.
Nodding, Shiro sat by the side as she watched Aarim put the final touches on the outfit.
Not even an hour passed before Aarim stopped.
"Here. Satisfied?" She asked.
The outfit itself was coloured light green with hints of blue and yellow along with floral patterns, which decorated the edges of the outfit. The dress itself was a sleeveless high collar dress with a skirt that would reach halfway down the thighs. This was paired up with long white gloves and stockings.
[Thank you.] Shiro smiled.
"No problem. Just come here if you need another commission. Trading with a photoshoot of course." Aarim winked.
Shiro nodded as she stored the outfit into her inventory.
Flipping up her hood, she walked out the street with people hardly being able to see her face due to a mix of height and the cover the hood provided.
At most, they'll only spare her a glance.
She first went over to the adventurer's guild since she wanted to update her ID.
[Name: Shiro
Estimated Age: 13
Class: Ice Mage
LVL: 30]
After updating her ID, she walked to the mage's association and waited in the queue.
In order for her to gain access to the attunement hall, she needed to fulfil 3 conditions.
1 – Be a member of the Mages Association.
2 – Tier 2 magic user.
3 – Top 50 on the priority list.
First two was easy. The priority list was the annoying part.
Out of so many mages in the city, she had to reach the top 50 in priority. The priority list was a list where they determine who has the most talent to be nurtured.
This gave them a passive income of a certain amount of mana stones ever week, materials and study logs for magic. And to top it all off, they were granted access to the attunement hall.
From rank 50 to rank 21, the time you get in the attunement hall was only an hour.
However, even if it's just an hour, it provided the mages with a substantial boost to their INT stat.
Rank 20 to 11 got 3 hours while the top 10 had 5 hours each.
Shiro's goal was to reach the top 20 if possible. If she wanted to awaken her attunement to elements faster, she'll need to spend more time in the attunement hall. Especially since there wasn't a guarantee to awaken it in one go.
Some may even go a lifetime without being able to awaken whilst others could awaken on their first try.
When it was her turn to speak, Shiro pulled out her phone.
[I would like to register as a mage's association member.]
"Can you show us your adventurer's ID?"
Shiro nodded and handed over her ID.
"Aged 13 and level 30?!" The receptionist cried in disbelief. The average age for a person to reach level 30 was around 25. Yet this girl was level 30 when she's only 13.
"I'll have to call the branch master for this ok?" She said as Shiro nodded.
A small commotion was stirred up as the surroundings muttered about what they just heard.
"Did she just say the midget there is a level 30?"
"She's only 13 at that as well."
"How old is Julia when she was level 30?"
"I think Julia was 21 when she reached level 30. She's left for the bigger cities since she classed up, but to think we'll be able to see someone break her record."
"True true."
Ignoring the commotion around her, Shiro narrowed her eyes when she felt a gaze scan her from head to toe.
Looking over, Shiro saw the receptionist walk out with a man, which she presumed to be the branch master.
The man looking around his mid 30's. He had a thin build, swept-back blond hair, blue eyes, a clean face, stood around 6ft 5 and wore a black suit.
