Chapter 793 Explaining the Situation
Chapter 793 Explaining the Situation
"Eh? Bring me with you?" Kanae tilted her head with confusion.
"Mn, there’s something that’s going to happen soon so I’ll need you to get as strong as possible so that you can protect yourself and your family." Shiro replied as Kanae furrowed her brows.
"If you don’t mind me asking, can we know what this ’thing’ that’s going to happen is? If it is serious, I can get my big sister to make some preparations." Irina asked as Shiro nodded her head.
"Sure I was going to go inform the government too so that they can make an announcement about it. Do you know about the Queens?" Shiro asked while crossing her legs.
"I know some information." Irina nodded her head
"What about you Kanae?"
"Mn, I know a little too since I hang out with Irina quite a bit. I was there for some of the talks." Kanae nodded her head.
"Tell me what you know and I’ll fill in the blanks."
Nodding her head, Kanae started to explain to Shiro about what they know.
Most of the knowledge was about the Queen’s domains and their influence over people but that was it. Nothing about anchors, their power or their guard. While the government has discovered the next tier, tier 6, no one has been able to reach it.
"Well I suppose tier 6 is hard to reach but it’s not impossible. You’re looking at one right now." Shiro said, pointing at Nan Tian.
"Hey." Nan Tian smiled and created a tier 6 magic circle.
Seeing this, both Kanae and Irina widened their eyes in shock since this was something that had just been discovered and yet Shiro had someone who was tier 6 beside her.
"What do you mean it’s not hard to reach?" Irina asked as her sister has been stuck at the peak of tier 5 for so long now.
"Well I’m not even level 400 yet and I get to create tier 6 magic circles too. By the time I reached the peak of tier 5 I should be able to breakthrough quite easily." Shiro shrugged and made a tier 6 magic circle too.
Opening her mouth and closing it a few times, Kanae didn’t know how to react.
’If it’s so rare why are there two of you???’ She thought with a forced smile.
"Though I’m not sure if I should publish the way to reach tier 6 or not. After all, you know what human nature is like. The people that reach tier 6 might have an elitist mindset which would only harm humanity as a whole." Shiro shrugged as both Kanae and Irina nodded their heads.
If someone like Gil had become tier 6, it would truly be bad news.
"Anyways, let me tell you about the Queens as well as what is going to happen." Shiro smiled.
Taking a sip of the juice and raising her eyebrow at how nice it was, Shiro asked for more before explaining everything they knew such as the Queen’s roles, their guards, how they operate as well as the fact that demons and gods will arrive.
Of course, Shiro left out the fact that she was the Queen right now since she didn’t want to declare it to the world. If she did, the other queens could easily find out her identity through the internet. She didn’t want to lose this advantage just yet.
Hearing about everything that’s coming in a short period of 5 months, Kanae’s face paled.
"Shiro-nee is this true?" She asked as Shiro nodded her head.
"I’ve experienced a few visions and quests that show what initially happens and what will happen. It doesn’t look good." Shiro frowned while making a hologram of what she had seen. Of course, she left out the parts where it showed her participation and their future.
Seeing the future, the two girls didn’t have good expressions as the outcome was not exactly positive.
Taking a deep breath, Irina pardoned herself as she wanted to tell her sister.
Nodding her head, Shiro agreed since it would be good if her sister came to talk in person.
After Irina was gone, Shiro snapped her fingers and a small barrier was formed.
"You can ask me what you wanted to ask now." Shiro smiled softly since she could tell that something was on Kanae’s mind.
"Ah you found out?" Kanae chuckled.
"Of course. You know I’m sensitive to my surroundings. So what is it?" Shiro asked with a smile.
"I just want to know your part in all of this Shiro-nee. For you to know this much it means that there is something you need to do and it’s very important." Kanae asked as Shiro thought for a moment before nodding.
"There is. Remember how I said that there were queens from different worlds? Well I’m the queen of this world. For us to survive, I need to defeat the rest of the queens. I wanted you to get stronger so that you can protect yourself as well as your mother. After all, it would be quite sad to see you well... fall in battle I suppose." Shiro sighed.
"Mn.... I know that queens have subjects so am I able to be part of your kingdom or something? With what I know, you’re our planet’s last hope right? If you die then everything is over. I know how powerful you are Shiro-nee so I can trust that my mum would be safe with you. Plus, I can also help out and do my part for our world." Kanae smiled as Shiro thought about it for a moment before nodding her head.
"You know being near me is dangerous right? Sure I’m powerful but my enemies are just as powerful if not stronger." Shiro said while raising her eyebrow.
"I know. But you inspired me and it was you who also helped me survive this long so I have a debt towards you that I want to pay off." Kanae smiled while glancing at her book.
"Mn how about this then. If you do come under me, I only have one job for you. And that is to keep people safe in the city while we go out for expeditions ok? I know it sounds boring but we need someone to guard the city." Shiro suggested as Kanae furrowed her brows before nodding her head.
She understood that she was nowhere near ready to go out on the front lines considering the large power difference. Going there would only be suicide. Plus, guarding the city wasn’t bad either as she can keep an eye on her mum and keep her safe.
"Mn that’s fine." Kanae nodded her head.
"Good. I don’t have a domain just yet but I do have something called a celestial court. If you join the royal court, you get several bonuses that are proportionate to how powerful I can. You should get some decent boosts." Shiro smiled.
Naturally, Kanae agreed to join the court.
Performing the ritual that was needed for her, Shiro saw her name appear on the court list.
[Celestial Court Knight: Kanae]
The person given this role will receive the following benefits:
+20% of the Empress’ STR, AGI and DEX stat.
+20% Armour/Magic Penetration
+40% Boost to Stats while performing a task given by the Empress
As a Celestial Court Knight, you are able to tap into a portion of the experiences the Empress has to aid you in battle. Examples of experiences are Sword Domain, Boundary and War Saint.
Reading the description of Celestial Court Knight, Shiro was quite surprised that Kanae could get some experience of her using Boundary to help her in battles.
However, Kanae didn’t know the usefulness of this just yet as she was looking at her STR, AGI and DEX stat jump up tremendously.
"Shiro-nee aren’t you a mage??? Why are these stats so high???" Kanae asked.
"I know I’m a mage but they’re low compared to my INT stat you know?" Shiro chuckle.d
Understanding where this was going, Nimue wanted to warn Kanae but it was too late.
"How high is your INT stat?" Kanae asked.
"Around 100 million points or so." Shiro shrugged.
Hearing this number, Kanae spaced out in shock.
{And you broke her, great.} Nimue rolled her eyes.
’Oh I’m sure she’ll be fine. It’s better for her to start getting used to it now if she’s going to stay with us for a while.’ Shiro chuckled.
While Kanae was trying her best to process the information, Irina returned with someone behind her.
