Nanomancer Reborn - I've Become A Snow Girl?

Chapter 788 Answers

Looking at the shard of the Garden that was now in her hands, Shiro glanced up at the statue who called herself the Garden’s Spirit. She was now in what seemed to be a foetal position with her eyes tightly shut. Furrowing her brows, Shiro wondered if there was anything she could do to help her.

Or rather, perhaps prolong the prep time they had before the new age.

Activating Analysis, Shiro peered into the internal component of the Garden Spirit.

However, just as she did this, she felt a shock in her mind as she was immediately blinded for a moment.

Gritting her teeth, she accidentally took a step back as blood dripped out of her eyes.

Quickly activating life fire on her eyes, Shiro healed them as she furrowed her brows. This was the first time it had ever happened as she had never suffered such a large backlash when using Analysis.

"Don’t try something so risky please. My body is not for you to understand. You do not have the required authority to understand what I am. Doing so would only harm yourself." The Garden Spirit sighed softly.

"Shiro are you ok?" Nan Tian asked with worry as Shiro only nodded her head.

"Mn, don’t worry. You said authority right? Do you mean system authority?" Shiro replied to Nan Tian before talking to the spirit.

"Mn I do." The Garden’s Spirit nodded her head with mild confusion as to why Shiro was curious about this. However, since this was probably the last chance they could talk to each other, she didn’t mind entertaining her a little.

"I see. So if I have the right authority, am I able to prolong your life or rather, delay the age so that the humans have more time to prepare themselves?" Shiro asked.

"I believe so. Naturally, you have to be familiar with the system itself to be able to accomplish it. Even with the proper system authority, if you don’t know how to utilise it, it is useless." The Garden’s Spirit shook her head with a sigh.

Grinning at her response, Shiro took a deep breath.

"You two might want to step back. I’m going to be borrowing some power from someone quite important." Shiro said as Nan Tian nodded his head and took a few steps back. When Shiro warns you, it would be in your best interest to do as she said since she was correct most of the time.

Hearing this, Stanley also stepped back since he understood that his best student had surpassed him in strength already. Despite him being able to use tier 6 magic, she could ascend to god status any time she wished. Of course, there were backlashes but it was still God status regardless.

As a teacher, he couldn’t feel prouder. Stepping back, he couldn’t help but feel as though he was a spectator to a show. Normally, he would be the one at the centre but seeing someone else in that spot wasn’t bad either.

The pressure he felt on his shoulders lightened up as he knew there was someone after him should he die and that someone was Shiro.

With both Nan Tian and Stanley a decent distance from her, Shiro took a deep breath and glanced at the skill that was listed on her status board.

[Blessing of Chaos]

Ignore All System Restrictions and be promoted to System Privilege level 12.

Cost: N/A

Duration: 3 hours

Cooldown: 3 months

With a cooldown of three months, she can use it for a second time before the new age starts. But if she prolonged the spirit’s life, there was a chance that the time before the age would increase which meant that there were more chances for her to use this and get used to how the system worked.

Since the active duration was three hours, it meant that even if she couldn’t help the spirit, she could find out some information about the system.

Taking a few deep breaths, Shiro activated the skill.

*BOOM!!!!!

Suddenly, a pillar of light descended down upon her as Divine Energy filled the room. But compared to the one that Shiro released, this one was more overbearing. If they described Shiro’s Divine Energy as one that resembled a tennis ball, this one was equivalent to a giant stadium.

As the pillar of light surrounded Shiro, several tier 8 magic circles appeared around her as a black Sigil appeared in the air in front of Shiro. Sending out a shockwave with her in the centre, all of the light was shattered and only Shiro was left. With a black veil that seemed to trail behind her with ghostlike properties, Shiro opened her eyes and glanced towards her system.

[All Restriction’s have been lifted for Entity – Shiro –]

[Authority level has been upgraded to level 12.]

[What would you like to do today?]

Furrowing her brows, Shiro raised her eyebrow.

[Do not be confused. I am a personal AI of the system that you gain access at level 10. What is your query today or do you have none?]

’How do I help the Garden’s Spirit in order to prolong the time of arrival?’ Shiro asked.

[Unfortunately with your current skill set and range of power, it is impossible.] The AI replied as Shiro frowned.

[That is taking into consideration your Divine Grade Skill as well as any skill you have in the database. For you, right now, it is impossible to help this spirit prolong the coming of the new age.]

’I see, if I were to activate Analysis, would I be able to look at the spirits body now?’

[That is indeed possible.]

Nodding her head, Shiro activated Analysis and quickly scanned the Spirit’s body. Without any backlash this time, she was able to see what she was made of and it left Shiro speechless. With how compact she was and how quickly she was eroding away, Shiro understood why the system Ai said that it was impossible. Even if it was, she didn’t know where she should start with how compact she was.

’Is there anything I can do to help her or prolong the age of demons and gods then?’

[There’s nothing you can do right now.]

’I see... Well since we’re here, I might as well ask you some questions that I have.’

"Nan Tian, teach." Shiro called out.

"What is it?" Stanley replied.

"I’m going to see if the system AI and speak on speaker or something since I want to ask it some questions before I lose this power." Shiro explained.

[I can indeed work in a way so that everyone in the vicinity can hear me.] A neutral voice rang out.

[And I can also just display my message on their system if you prefer that instead.]

Looking at the line of words, Nan Tian raised his eyebrow in surprise.

"Just speak unless you two want to read rather than listen." Shiro shrugged and glanced back to Nan Tian and Stanley.

"I don’t mind." Nan Tian smiled.

"I don’t mind either." Stanley nodded his head.

Hearing their replies, Shiro smiled before turning to her system interface.

"What is the goal of the Age of Demons and Gods?" Shiro asked with narrowed eyes.

[The Age of Demons and Gods is a selection process to see if the current world has the potential to become the next hub base of all living things. However, doing so requires a strong leader to keep the world in order. One that can stand against all of the queen, demons and gods that arrive. The queens that arrive do not have this knowledge and they believe that if they win, they’ll be the next leader of the hub and their world will be saved.]

Hearing this, Shiro frowned since it was essentially a trial for the queen that lived in the garden while the others were aiming for an impossible goal.

"How do I win the new age? Do I need to kill all the queens or can they survive?" Shiro asked with narrowed eyes since this is the most important question to her. Whether or not she needed to kill Madison was what she wanted to know as she didn’t want to be a friend killer for a second time.

[You do not need to kill all the queens to win the new age. You can form subservient contracts with them and that would place them under you without stripping them of their power as queens. However, they cannot act against you. As for how you win, you need to defeat all of the queens, demons and gods or make them serve you. Become the one true ruler and your garden would have passed the test.]
