Nanomancer Reborn – I’ve Become A Snow Girl? Chapter 56

Chapter 56 - Start Of The Event

Huan er had a frown on her face when she saw the fight for the Awakening stone. For a level 33 to kill a level 50 as easily as she did wasn't normal.

Perhaps she took advantage of the level 50 being weakened due to the constant fighting. But it still wasn't an easy task.

Especially her use of skills. The strange footwork, the ruthlessness of her action and most importantly, how strong her ice magic was. The level 50 was 17 levels above her yet he was still pushed back.

Nan Tian landed gently beside her.

"Her performance was pretty astounding right?" Nan Tian said with a chuckle.

"It was indeed an eye-opener." Huan er replied reluctantly.

"More importantly, how is the fight for the relic? Anyone looking like they got potential?" Nan Tian asked.

"No. They're weaker than even the pseudo members of the sect."

"Shame. I suppose it's time to retrieve the relic now."

Huan er nodded as she stored away the tablet.

Nan Tian placed a hand on her shoulder as their bodies flickered away from the roof.

Meanwhile, Shiro who had just returned back to the dorm, undid her Shadow Cloak and pulled down her face mask. She had erased all of the blood marks with her ice so she looked like she didn't get into a fight.

Thankfully, the shadow cloak made it so that they didn't recognise her. The only problem was Li Nan Tian.

However, since he knew she was a snow girl and didn't kill her, it meant his intentions weren't hostile.

But Shiro made sure to remind herself that she'll be careful around him in the future.

Earlier, she had made sure to erase all of the blood marks with her ice so she looked like she didn't get into a fight. 

"Shiro!" Lyrica called out as she hugged Shiro.

Shiro patted her back with a light smile.

"I saw 2 lights earlier and knew one of them was you. You didn't know how worried I was." Lyrica said as they separated.

[It's fine. I got it in the end.] Shiro grinned as she pulled out the Awakening Stone.

Lyrica widened her eyes in surprise.

"You mean you managed to steal it under the eyes of a level 50?!"

[Yup.]

"Nice!" Lyrica said, giving her a thumbs up.

Shiro only chuckled as she saw the change in Lyrica. She wasn't as shy as she was before.

[Since it's quite late, you should rest now.]

"Yeah. You should rest too. Stealing this under a level 50 and escaping isn't easy." Lyrica said as she yawned slightly.

Returning to their rooms, Shiro ate a few mana stones since she was quite hungry.

Sitting on her chair, she leaned back slightly.

She pulled out the Awakening Stone and observed the object.

The stone was as big as her palm, a creamy white outer colour. Inside the creamy white colour, were hints of the elemental colours.

[Awakening Stone (Purple)]

A stone that can awaken/upgrade the attunement you have inside your body. This stone can increase your attunement from Tier 0 -> Tier 1 or from Tier 1 -> Tier 2.

The way to use the stone was simple, she just had to run her mana through the stone while she was in a meditative state.

It was similar to what happened when she entered her Mana Realm in the Attunement Halls.

Sitting on the bed, Shiro sat in a lotus position and closed her eyes.

A pale blue aura flared around her.

The stone in her hand started to float upwards as it drifted just in front of her face.

*Ping~

The stone shattered apart with a light glass breaking sound.

Slowly, the shards melted into a liquid which gradually coated Shiro's entire body.

It shifted colours every so often. Changing from silver, to yellow then to a dark purple. It reflected the upgradable attunements Shiro possessed at this moment in time.

*Krrr krrrr krrrr~

Settling with yellow, lightning started to spark around Shiro's body as her face became pale.

Upgrading her lightning attunement to Tier 1 with broken links was very painful. While not as painful as upgrading her Ice Attunement to Tier 2, it still caused her to grit her teeth.

"Fuuu…."

It took a full 30 minutes before the pain started to fade.

Opening her eyes, Shiro took a deep breath.

Looking down at her hands, she flexed her fingers and saw lightning flicker around them.

"Tier 1 lightning magic… I wonder what I can do with you." Shiro muttered as she knew lightning was one of the more diverse elements. It can act as both crowd control and damage dealer. Crowd control with the paralysis and damage with the sheer destructive power that naturally comes with lightning.

However, she wouldn't be able to use this Tier 1 lightning magic to the best of her ability.

Even in her past life, she never really focused too much on the elemental aspect to things. She would just blow everything away with her guns.

Controlling the lightning, she tried to condense it into a single strand.

Sweat dripped from her forehead since it was harder than what she had initially expected. She sighed slightly before laying on her back.

Looking up at the ceiling, she couldn't help but think about Nan Tian. The stranger who knew about her identity, didn't kill her and invoked a strange nostalgic feeling inside her.

"Hidden sect huh?" She muttered.

Shaking the thoughts away, Shiro went to sleep.

###

The next morning, Shiro and Lyrica had a quick breakfast.

Yin was still sleeping in Shiro's hood, lazy as always.

"Yin~ I got some food for you~" Lyrica said trying to temp Yin out of Shiro's hood.

Shiro chuckled slightly seeing this.

"Little Yin, stop being lazy." Shiro said, keeping her mouth movements to a minimal. This was so that it didn't look like she was talking and instead, eating.

Yin chirped lazily as she flapped her wings and landed on the table.

Grabbing the mana stone from Lyrica, Yin flapped her wings and flew back to Shiro's hood.

After they finished the food, they walked towards where the event was being held.

"Shiro, what attunement did you did you awaken or upgrade?" Lyrica asked.

[I got Tier 1 Lightning Magic.]

Flexing her fingers, a streak of lightning swirled around her palms.

"Heh~ But doesn't that conflict with your base element? You know, ice." Lyrica asked.

[I suppose. But they can also synergise you know. What do you think would happen if I thawed the ice I placed on someone and discharge lightning at him?]

[The lightning would get amplified while also stunning the enemy for a slight moment. This would give me a gap in their defence for me to abuse.]

"I see… I wonder what kind of attunement I have." Lyrica muttered.

[You'll find out sooner or later. I can let you use the attunement halls in my stead, I think? Well I should be able to since I'm top 10 on the priority list.] Shiro typed out as she wasn't too sure about whether or not that was allowed.

"Eh?? You're on the priority list?" Lyrica exclaimed.

[Yes. I'm ranked 10th.] Shiro replied. However, her rank may have changed since she did kill the previous rank 5.

"Ah I found you- . . ." Lyrica paused when she saw Shiro's 'title' for rank 9. Anus Destroying Princess.

Looking over at Shiro, Lyrica nodded slightly.

'Agreed.' Lyrica thought, agreeing with their nickname for her. She did look like a beautiful princess and had a weird obsession with destroying asses. Having the nickname 'Anus Destroying Princess' wasn't too far off from the truth.

"Shiro, you're rank 9 now."

[Hm, is that so?]

'So they already confirmed Cain's death.' Shiro thought. The battle for the items last night was intense since they could still see the damage visible on the houses.

There are broken walls, charred roofs and destroyed roads.

However, it seems like this was a common occurrence since a few level 50 mages were already fixing up the city.

No one uninvolved was harmed last night. Only the people who took part in the fight were injured.

At most, the news only broadcasted who died in last nights fight.

"Crazy huh? New York has been through so much; it doesn't even bother stopping it now. They just restrict it." Lyrica said.

Shiro nodded as a response.

She read about this in a few textbooks in school. In the city, there are a few groups, charged with maintaining public security.

The two most important ones where the Patrol Men and the Law Enforcement.

The Patrol Men who did what their title said. Patrol the city and make sure they no one is acting out of line.

The Law Enforcement, on the other hand, was tasked with taking down anyone who was too dangerous or needed to be killed.

If anyone uninvolved with the item fight had died in yesterday's fight, they would be sent out and track down the killer.

The fate of the killer would be determined through a court hearing. Naturally, if it wasn't the killer's fault in the matter, he/she would be let off with a warning. Situations like a curious citizen spectating too closely weren't uncommon.

'Adapt to change huh?' Shiro thought. Since they couldn't stop the fact that everyone was fighting after items, they just restrained the people they involved.

This satisfied both sides since it would be their fault if they got too curious and died in the process.

Curiosity killed the cat after all. They gave them the chance and the victim still ignored it.

Arriving at the location where the school was going to meet up, Shiro saw Madison waiting there with an annoyed face.

"You! Both you and Lyrica went off to do Dungeon together and didn't take me! What about my romance?!" Madison said as she walked towards the duo.

'Romance? What?' Shiro thought confused.

Lyrica blushed slightly as she realised Madison knew how she felt.

[It wasn't that we didn't take you. But the Dungeons were a little too high levelled for you.] Shiro typed out as Madison furrowed her brows.

"Look at my level! Does it look low to you?!" She said.

[Madison LVL 20 – Swordswoman]

'Eh? She actually reached level 20 within this short amount of time without anyone helping her like Lyrica did?!' Shiro thought as she was surprised at this revelation.

"Wow! Level 20! Congrats!" Lyrica praised honestly.

"Thank you." Madison was a little taken aback at how honest Lyrica's praise was.

[Well since you've reached level 20, once you class up, we'll take you into Dungeons with us. Since there are 3 of us, we can register for an official party. How's that?] Shiro suggested with a smile.

"Yep! No problems with me." Lyrica nodded.

"Sure. Just make sure you don't forget me this time." Madison said with a huff.

"Hahah we won't. I swear." Lyrica laughed.

[Since that's the case, we'll set up our party after the faction recruitment. Try to find a faction that allows you to form parties with outsiders if possible.]

"Got it." Both Lyrica and Madison replied.

The trio walked towards the location for their class.

 When the student saw them, the males immediately parted ways like mosses parting the sea's.

*Bam!

A set of chairs and umbrellas were set up almost immediately.

Kneeling down almost in sync, they gestured for Shiro to sit in the main chair that had a table next to it.

"…"

"…"

"…"

Shiro raised an eyebrow to this. Looking over at the teachers, she saw most of them with a 'I'm so fed up of these dumbasses' face.

Seeing as they aren't stopping this, Shiro found it rude if she didn't take the freebie.

[Welp, it would seem like our seats have been determined.] Shiro typed out as she walked to the centre chair.

Sitting down, she crossed her legs and pulled down her hood.

Yin flew down and rested on her thighs while a drink was placed on her table.

[Thank you.] Shiro typed out as the student blushed and walked away.

Seeing that Shiro was enjoying the situation to the full, both Lyrica and Madison smiled wearily.

"Let's join her I suppose." Madison said, walking to one of the seats. Lyrica only sighed and followed.

After a short while, a huge blimp started to approach the location with giant screens attached to the side.

On the screens was the logo for the Faction Recruitment.

'It's time.' Shiro thought, seeing the blimp.

When the blimp arrived at the location, the screen shifted to the image of the commentator. 

"To all who have joined us on this lovely day! WELCOME! TO THIS YEARS FACTION RECRUITMENT EVENT!"
