Nanomancer Reborn - I've Become A Snow Girl?

Chapter 1161 Fate Set In Stone

Stomping down, Shiro's aura exploded into the air as tier 7 magic circles appeared all around the city, threatening to become tier 8 but just lacking that last step.

"Get the f*ck out of here! I can sense that you three are gods! If you don't get out then you should forget about surviving!" Shiro shouted out with pure anger. Her killing intent shot through the roof as the land was transformed into an icy landscape.

Both Nine and Iris shuddered in fear as ice started forming on the car window and the temperature.

Glancing out of the window, Nine was surprised to see rage on Shiro's face since she had always seemed to be the composed one.

"Iris do you sense anything?" Nine asked as he glanced back only so see Iris unable to speak while her face was pale.

Waving her hand, she pulled out several cards and two of them flickered with a glowing light.

"Whoever she's against will die. All of their paths have just been cut off. No matter what timeline, no matter what choice, their fate has been set in stone. As for the second card, another's fate will begin to change. As for her power... She's someone near the apex of this world." Iris explained as she tried her best to read more fates but her cards suddenly burst into black flames and disappeared.

Shocked at this, Nine quickly summoned one of his blades and deflected the flames. When they touched his sword, he was shocked to see that the metal was being used as fuel and didn't hesitate to throw his sword away to keep both him and Iris safe.

"Why did the cards burst into flames? They're not normal flames either." Nine frowned while Iris glanced at Shiro.

"I tried to predict more of her fate. However, I don't know what's happening but there is now a layer of darkness around her star. She's like a black hole of endless void."

Hearing this, Nine furrowed his brows.

Thinking about it for a moment, he kicked the car door open and started to escape with Iris so that Shiro didn't need to be worried about catching them in the crossfire.

Sensing the two of them jogging to safety, Shiro smiled before looking back towards the direction of the gods with a frown.

From the city, a single white haired and paled skinned woman appeared.

Floating in the air, she looked no different o a marionette as she dangled on invisible strings. Her eyes hallow and her body barely holding together with the presence of three gods within her body.

Seeing this, Shiro felt rage overwhelm her as she slammed her hand forward, ripping a tear in the void and appeared before the woman.

*BANG!!!

Crashing her palm against the woman's chest, red circuits exploded out of Shiro's arm.

"Get the hell out here!" Shiro roared as she pulled her arm back.

Tugging tight on the circuits, Shiro watched as the woman's shirt rip apart to show three cards fused to her torso. The flesh around the cards pulsed ever so slightly.

Recognising three sources of divine energy, one on each card, Shiro understood that this was the medium between the gods and the Queen who was used as a container.

Just as she was about to attack the cards, a tier 8 magic circle appeared in front of Shiro. Black lightning flickered on the surface as Shiro felt her instincts scream out for her to dodge.

But without her own divinity empowering her body, it was going to be difficult.

Activating Analysis EX at the last moment, the world slowed down around her as her mind started to turn.

She didn't want to unlock her divinity right now since the momentum from the corruption was a bit strong. If she did unlock it, it'll be a bit hard for her to keep it in control. Without Beelzebub helping her and Error being awake, she estimated that her divinity may overwhelm her right now.

As the lightning came closer to her eye, Shiro summoned Silvanis and the runes on the blade lit up with a neon green glow.

*BOOM!!!

Pulsing out with an emerald radiance, the lightning was frozen in mid air, suspended in time and prevented from reaching Shiro.

Since her enemies were gods, Shiro didn't want to dawdle and just end them as quickly as she could. After fighting Rokarn and getting some of her memories back from her like as Anima, she knew a few of the tricks that gods have and ending them quickly in her state was desired. It was both common sense as well as her understanding on their power.

Appearing behind the girl, Shiro had Silvanis in hand and swung towards the neck.

But before it could hit, Shiro felt sharp sense of pain shoot through her body, her spell ended and the three gods regained their movements once more. Seeing the lightning miss and the traces of divine energy in the air, the girl opened her mouth.

"So it's the God Slayer. I was wondering why the aura was so strong. I had assumed that you was nothing but another Queen or Empress so please forgive my discourtesy." A old voice rang out as a barrier shimmered around the girls body, redirecting Silvanis rather than blocking it.

Realising that they knew the properties of her sword, Shiro narrowed her eyes and jumped back.

"Hou~ Seems like I'm famous." Shiro forced a smile while staring at the girl.

The three auras within her body surged for a moment as three illusionary figures appeared in the air.

Their forms flickered delicately as though they're about to disappear at any moment due to the restrictions in this world right now.

"Of course, we have heard much about your exploits God Slayer. The system was kind with its compliments. Since you are here, may we buy our pardon with some information? It is our desire to set up a small foundation for the changes coming in two days." The old man in the centre smiled as Shiro furrowed her brows and dismissed Silvanis.

"Speak, why does the cards hold your aura and what did you do here?" Shiro asked.

Hearing her tone, one of the gods were unhappy but after hearing that she had killed Rokarn, they didn't dare to make a wrong move. Despite her level only being 250 right now, they know it's a lie since she was able to kill Rokarn.

"There was a small update to the system. All of the gods were given a set of cards that allow us to insert our crests and converse with mortals without suffering from the backlash. The goal is to find mortals and share our power with them to set up a foundation similar to what the Queens do when the new age first started." The middle god explained as Shiro nodded her head.

"What happened to the girl then?" Shiro asked as they glanced back at the girl they used as a container.

"She was unable to withstand our presence and her mind was crushed. Therefore, her body was suitable for the three of us to borrow her body for the time being. As for her followers, they were added bounty for their faith. If the God Slayer wishes to add more mortals to gain some faith then we are happy to supply you with some." The first god replied as the other two nodded their heads.

Hearing this, Shiro glanced at the city and sighed.

"No need. What faith can I get from such mindless husks?" She said as her voice was frigid.

Figuring that it was probably because she was unhappy with the offering, the three quickly explained.

"For you see, while they are indeed mindless husks and the amount of faith they can provide is minimal, their physical bodies can be used as catalysts to reduce the pressure it is on us to materialise on the mortal world in two days. While most of the restrictions will be lifted, powerful gods still need sacrifices to materialise. We are no different though the amount we need are much smaller. As a god born from this world, you will not need to go through this process."

"I see. Well your may certainly tell me more when I take your souls." Shiro said as she clutched her hand.

Suddenly, three sets of circuits materialised, connecting Shiro to each of the gods.

Widening their eyes, they weren't able to do anything before a wave of black energy shot out from the circuits, enveloping them in darkness.

Back in the realm of gods, the three paused in their steps and frowned. Furious at Shiro's actions, they wanted to end her but something changed in their vision.

A figure of Shiro appeared but she was not physically in the divine realm. Instead, it was as though her existence was tied to them.

"When I kill things, I make sure they're dead for good. For someone of my identity, letting you live is simply an insult." Shiro spoke slowly as they weren't able to do anything about her. Black tendrils crept up their legs and locked them in place. While this was not her original divinity, she could emulate its power ever so lightly through converting their divine energy and using that against them.

Looking at the three cores that appeared before her, Shiro clenched her fist and shattered them in one go.

While they were called 'gods', they were only minor gods. Weaklings in her eyes.
