Flying into the sky, Shiro activated her True Spirit Nature without hesitation as a black dress wrapped around her body.
Sending out her senses, she could tell that quite a few of the souls had already departed. If she was to give it a percentage, around 40% have departed which meant that she could save just over half of them.
Waving her hand, a giant tier 6 magic circle expanded out over the city.
Seeing this, quite a few of the residents were traumatised by what they had seen and had thought that this was another attack.
Many fled while crying out in fear but Shiro didn’t pay them any attention.
Currently, she was making some modifications to her Requiem of the Dead as her goal was to help the souls rather than to kill them.
Closing her eyes, she tried to imagine the most harmonious figure she could in mind as this would help calm the people. Picturing the image of an angel, Shiro took a deep breath and activated her skill, Grace.
Suddenly, a golden radiance flooded the magic circle as white clouds gathered above the city. Much like what happened with Requiem of the Dead, a portal opened up using the clouds as a border. However, unlike the original spell, the portal this time was golden as white feathers dropped down into the world before turning into particles of light.
Those that were still running glanced up in wonder and saw angels descending down with peaceful expressions. Several illusionary figures of those who had already passed on could be seen as a gentle radiance enveloped the entire city.
*BOOM!!!
A pillar of light shot up into the sky as several tier 6 magic circles could be seen stacking on top of each other.
Those that were dead started to move as their eyes would slowly open and they would look around in confusion since their last memory was death before being hugged by a warm energy which brought them back.
Naturally, since Shiro was controlling the souls right now, she could naturally sense that several of the souls were quite evil as the colour had turned a murky blue. Letting them pass on, she then activated the second part of her spell so that the people were healed back to full health.
Letting out a beautiful orchestral song, the angels hovered above the city as golden runes lit up everyone’s body.
Energy filled their body as those with disabilities found out that they were no longer being affected. Lost limbs were regrown, curses were dispelled and a buff was given to them.

Those who were religious kneeled towards the centre of the magic circle and gave their prayers of gratitude while others were more curious about which Demi Goddess had invoked such a powerful magic to help them.
Climbing to the rooftops, they could see Shiro surrounded by golden lights as her white hair fluttered behind her. Despite wearing full black right now with some hints of silver, she looked graceful in the air as an orb of runic symbols and magic circles floated before her.
A few people noticed that quite a few of the casualties weren’t revived as sorrow filled the hearts of those who knew the deceased.
Watching the scene, Isilia was enthralled by the changes that happened to her friend. In the past, she was nought but a weapon of mass destruction which could wipe out cities in a blink of an eye but now she was a source of warmth which brought hope to the mind.
As for Mio, she had a smile on her face as she watched her daughter heal those that could still be saved.
Reapers were known for dragging souls away for torture or helping them pass on. But this was the first time she had seen soul control being used in the way that Shiro was using it. Clerics could revive people yes but that was due to the innate features of their class. Shiro on the other hand was not a cleric so reviving people should be outside of her expertise.
But through a combination of her healing spells and soul control, she made her own revival spell that far outclassed what some of the clerics could do.
After all, not only did she revive and heal, she also gave them buffs to help them become stronger.
After a short while, the portal slowly closed as the figures of the angel disappeared. Shiro floated in the air as her face was slightly pale since that spell had actually exhausted her entire True Spirit Nature along with 90% of her mana.
However, seeing the notification on her system, her lips curled up into a smile as she hadn’t expected to make such a strong spell.
While it wasn’t world class since the range was only around a city or so, it was far stronger than her other support spells.

Looking at her spell, made her way back down to the ground as she had done her part now. All of the lives that she could save have been saved and she even got a new spell out of it. Landing on the ground, Shiro stumbled for a moment due to the sudden decrease of 90% of her mana as both Nan Tian and Isilia rushed to her side and helped her up.
“Are you ok?” Isilia asked with a concerned expression.
“Mn, the spell just took a large amount of mana so it’s somewhat hard to move properly right now.” Shiro smiled since it was rare for her to almost run out of mana. As a being that’s reliant on mana, running out of it was similar to falling into a coma as the body would shut down. If she forcefully used a large spell that would exceed how much mana she had left, she would enter a state of mana deficiency which could be quite lethal depending on how serious it is.
“Goodness, when you said a spell I thought you’d heal people a little at best not completely revive them and even give them a buff to get more EXP. What happened to the murder machine I used to know?” Isilia chuckled as Shiro blushed in embarrassment. It was like having an embarrassing phase of her life exposed as she was quite psychotic back then.
Thinking about the crazy moments where she would revel in the bloodshed, Shiro’s face would heat up since she couldn’t imagine screaming ‘give me more blood!’ out again. Doing so would be akin to asking her to die.
Plus, she was a mother now so she couldn’t go around acting crazy when one of her children is beside her.
“I suspect that news of you healing an entire city and even giving them an EXP boost should spread to the rest of the world soon. The queens will probably get information about this and recognise you as a serious threat.” Mio said as Shiro nodded her head.
“Mn but they don’t know my identity so we’re safe for now. As for humans knowing, I don’t really mind or care so that can be set aside.” Shiro replied as they could see a crowd gathering around them.
Furrowing her brows slightly, Shiro wasn’t keen on talking to a crowd so she opened a rift behind them and made their way towards the teleport shrine. Seeing this, the crowd could only sigh in regret since they couldn’t talk to their saviour.
Arriving at the teleport shrine, Shiro suggested that they make their way to Japan since she wanted to go collect the materials her teacher had sent. After all, making the anchor was one of her top priorities right now.
Li Jian decided to go back to the sect since there were some things that he needed to deal with before they could concentrate their full efforts in dealing with the queens.
Isilia on the other hand decided to tag along since she wanted to meet her daughter soon. Plus, she hadn’t seen her best friend in a while so they wanted to travel together for a while like old times.
Parting with Li Jian who teleported back to the sect, Shiro, Nan Tian, Mio, Koji and Isilia made their way to Japan.
