Nanomancer Reborn - I've Become A Snow Girl?

Chapter 791 Finding Kanae

Getting information on all the mana signatures in the city, Shiro was surprised to see quite a few large signals gathered in one place. There were two that were especially powerful as they stood head and shoulders above the rest.

There was a third but it seemed to flicker between being strong then weak which confused her.

But that wasn’t where her attention was. Her attention was drawn to the strongest signal which resembled Kanae’s.

’Hmm... if Lyrica could improve to the standard of Heroes, it makes sense that Kanae can as well.’ Shiro mused to herself.

Landing on the ground, Shiro glanced towards Nan Tian.

"Have you found her?" He asked with a smile.

"Mn, I did. Surprisingly, she’s actually the strongest person in this city right now." Shiro smiled as most of the people here were near the peak of tier 4. For Kanae to be the strongest person here, she is either similar to Shiro in regard to the fact that they can kill people above their level or that she had reached the peak of tier 4. Perhaps even tier 5 depending on her experiences.

"Oh? She’s actually the strongest person here now?" Nan Tian raised his eyebrow in surprise.

"Mn. I wonder if she ha-" Before Shiro could finish her sentence, she felt Kanae’s Aura fluctuate as she seemed to grow weaker.

Frowning slightly, Shiro looked toward Kanae’s general direction.

"Seems like she’s fighting with someone right now." She muttered with a frown.

"Let’s go have a look at what’s happening. We can give her a hand if she can’t deal with it." Nan Tian suggested as Shiro nodded her head.

Flickering from their spots, they quickly travelled towards where Kanae was.

*Haaaa....

Breathing out heavily, a young girl could be seen holding her katana with a quivering grip.

She had long black hair, red eyes and looked to be around 13 to 15 years in age. She wore a black trench coat, a black shirt, shorts, some tights and a pair of long boots.

Right now, she was quite injured as blood dripped from her head.

Besides her was a woman who is currently kneeling on the ground with a pale face. She had long blond hair and brown eyes. She wore a hooded coat that was buttoned up to her chin, shorts, tights and boots.

The two were currently on guard against the young teen in front of them who had a smug grin on his face.

"You should just give up already, Irina has already lost her powers and there’s no way you can beat me now in your state." The teen chuckled.

He looked a little older than the black haired girl as he had a sword in his hand and several magic circles in the other.

If Shiro was here, she would immediately recognise the sword to be made from nanobots.

"Shut it Gil." The girl spat out as she crouched down.

Flickering in front of the teen called Gil, the girl swayed like a phantom and slashed towards his throat.

Unfortunately for her, Gil kept a smile on his face and parried the blade off to the side.

However, this was what the girl wanted as she shifted her weight and slammed her palm into his stomach.

*BANG!!!

Forcing him back by a few steps, she slashed towards him once more.

Clicking his tongue, Gil drew a rune in the air and ice chains lashed out towards the girl.

"Don’t you dare use her magic!" The girl hissed, slashing the chains apart as a black and red light trail flowed behind her katana.

"What can I say, her powers have been most useful. Especially this sword." Gil grinned.

Stabbing the sword into the ground, a wave of nanobots lashed out towards the girl as she gritted her teeth and jumped back to avoid the danger.

"When I had sapped some of her power away, I didn’t expect to get these robots as an additional bonus to her ice magic. I must say, when I first used this it was quite dangerous. It tried to consume me too but after a bunch of experimenting I finally got it under control." Gil chuckled as the nanobots morphed back into swords just before they reached the girl and slashed towards her.

Parrying as best she could, the girl couldn’t help but suffer a few injuries.

"Her power isn’t for you to use. Someone like you should just go to hell!" The girl glared at him as the red aura slowly travelled up her arm.

"I probably do deserve to go to hell but I won’t be going anytime soon." Gil laughed.

Twisting the handle of his sword, the nanobots near Kanae detonated in an instant as her body was flung back.

*BANG!!

Crashing against the wall, she coughed up a mouthful of blood as the red aura continued to spread to the rest of her body.

Once the aura wrapped around her completely, she disappeared from her spot and reappeared next to Gil with a red glow in her eyes.

Gritting her teeth, she twisted her body and slashed as hard as she could.

Smirking at her, he disassembled his sword and allowed the nanobots to wrap around the katana.

"I’ll be taking that." He chuckled.

*PING!!!

Widening her eyes, the girl watched as her katana was consumed and snapped in half.

Biting her lips, she let go of her sword and jumped back to avoid being harmed by the nanobots.

"You know, these robots are very helpful. And I mean, VERY helpful. Now that they have eaten your sword, I can recreate it you know?" He chuckled as the nanobots surged around his hand and morphed into the katana’s that the girl had in her hand a moment ago.

Furrowing her brows, the girl was about to charge back in when a dominating pressure crashed down into the room.

"I was wondering about who you were fighting but it turns out to be the kid that wanted to shake my hand. And what’s this? He’s even got nanobots now?" A voice rang out as a portal opened up in the room.

Exiting the portal with a smile, Shiro glared at Gil before snapping her finger. With her being a Demi God, she could control nanobots at will. Naturally, this included the ones that Gil summoned. Plus, they were hers to begin with.

*PING!!!

Shattering apart in an instant, Gil widened his eyes in shock as he tried to summon more.

But before he could, Shiro swiped up with her hand as a cage of nanobots appeared around him and started to sap away his mana.

"It’s been a while Kanae. Seems like you’ve grown quite a bit. You were still a little girl the last time I saw you." Shiro smiled softly as Kanae teared up.

"Shiro-nee...." She muttered as Shiro patted her head.

"Now then, how shall we deal with this kid hm?" Shiro asked as her aura exploded out and was directed entirely at Gil.

*BANG!

Crashing against the wall of the cage, he coughed up a mouthful of blood.

"Perhaps I should just let the nanobots kill you." Shiro suggested as his left arm was entirely shredded apart and turned to nanobots.

"ARGGG!!" Crying out in pain, he wanted to summon a sword to cut off his left arm but all that happened was his right arm being shredded apart as well.

During their fight, Shiro had decided to watch for a short while to see how much Kanae had improved and naturally, she wasn’t pleased to see Gil having access to her nanobots.

"I’ll leave his fate up to you Kanae. How do you want me to deal with him?" Shiro asked while glancing back at Kanae.

Gritting her teeth, Kanae glared at Gil and opened her mouth.

"I want him to die painfully." She squeezed out while holding onto her injuries.

"Sure. You should close your eyes if you want since the next part is rather gruesome."

Activating her True Spirit Nature, Shiro summoned her lantern. But before she pulled out his soul, she snapped her finger.

*CRACK!!!

Exploding out of his chest, nanobots swarmed around and bloomed like a flower before shredding his body into mince.

Summoning a few butterflies, his soul was dragged towards the lantern as a laugh could be heard.

"Hahaha, I suppose you want me to torture this one a little more than the others." The ancient terror asked.

"Of course."

"You should send more people in here often. There’s only so much fun I can get out of one or two people." He chuckled as Shiro only shrugged.

"We’ll see."

Dismissing the lantern once the soul was inside, she glanced at Kanae and the girl beside her.

Encasing them in Life Fire, Shiro quickly healed their wounds.
