Nanomancer Reborn - I've Become A Snow Girl?

Chapter 923 Tokyo After The New Age



The trip to Tokyo was going to take roughly two days if they continued using the city. The main reason for this was because they were looking out for any survivors that they came across on the road.

With Kanae taking charge of helping them to the city, she was also able to see their true nature due to the situation that they were placed in. Quite a few of the survivors didn't hesitate to abandon the others and those with good intentions usually died first.

After the first few rescues, Shiro didn't have any doubts regarding Kanae being able to complete this. Naturally, if she was uncomfortable, Shiro would force her to rest.

Tapping her finger on the table, Shiro was checking up on what everyone was doing in the city.

'Isilia and Lyrica are training with each other while occasionally helping others. They would also join a scouting team that left the city to kill some monsters that were roaming around the ground for Exp. Yin's… being Yin but she's actually helping some of the mages train with fire magic. Considering the nature of her own magic and control, she was probably the best teacher they can ask for.' Shiro mused to herself.

But remembering the price for Yin's training, Shiro couldn't help but sigh since it was food. She'll only teach you once she was satisfied with the food but those that have been taught were always satisfied.

'Where did I go wrong? Why is this Yin nothing like the one I saw before. She was so nice and cooked often too. Even though this one knows how to cook, she is too lazy to do it.' Shiro sighed heavily.

{Maybe you pampered her a bit too much.} Nimue chuckled as she had returned to the mana realm to rest. She had been going around helping people out a little but she also needed a break from work.

'Maybe… At least the others aren't like her. Aarim has finished setting up a few mage towers around the city centre and filled it up with tools to help her experiments. The mages are quite grateful for this too. Seems like she's become the guild master of a mage's guild or something haha. Silvia is responsible for the healers so I guess she'll be something like the head of the healer guild.' Shiro chuckled since they have been making small branches in the city that are directly linked to their classes.

With Aarim being the pseudo leader of the mages, she would share some of her experiences along with resources that the city has collected so that all the mages could become stronger collectively. Of course, the more trustworthy someone is, the more resources they got. This was the same for Silvia with her healing guild, Chen Yu with the assassins and Helion with his blacksmiths.

Madison was busy with solidifying her power over the entire demon race so she wasn't able to spend as much time with Helion as she had thought but Helion chose to have the blacksmithing guild to be located a little closer to the demon platform.

Keiko was trying her best to reach tier 6 and was in a similar state to Lisandra. Keomi was training with her father, Koji, while Mio was helping out in the military when it comes to sword training.

'Shiina, Oran and Akhess are making good progress with their mech training. Their weapon training is falling behind a little but I think I can fit it in their schedules. The mechs are installed with guns that they can use if the mech gets destroyed so they can't slack off when it comes to weapons. No point having a powerful gun without being able to use it.' Shiro thought while glancing at their schedules that were packed to the brim.

Narrowing her eyes, Shiro was tempted to remove some of the time used for sleep and change it to weapon training.

{Don't do that, the poor lot needs as much sleep as they can get.} Nimue's smile twitched since Shiro would probably just take out sleep eventually.

'Pft… I won't do that.' Shiro smiled while replacing some of the mech training with weapon training.

{Right…}

Glancing out of the window, Shiro could see the second city following behind Asharia and all of its functions were working perfectly. Everything was balanced and it worked like a charm. She hadn't thought up of a name for the city yet but that wasn't high on her priority list. As for Estrella, she had recovered earlier and proceeded to work on making the gateway that would help filter people out.

After checking up on everyone, there wasn't much else for Shiro to do as she returned to her room and saw Lisandra sitting with furrowed brows.

It's already been two days since the start of the new age and yet Lisandra hadn't shown any signs of waking up which caused Shiro to sigh.

Making a handkerchief, Shiro wiped the sweat away and sat next to Lisandra.

"Good luck Lisa." Shiro muttered as she couldn't help but worry about her safety.

###

Standing above Asharia Shiro looked at the city that was once known as Tokyo and couldn't help but shake her head.

The prideful tower that used to represent the headquarters of the rising sun had long collapsed as the entire city was now filled with a malevolent aura that seemed to consume anything that it touched.

There was not a single person walking around as the entire city was filled to the brim with monsters.

The worst part of all this was that Shiro could sense human souls within the city. Even though her mana senses seemed to be blocked by the miasma, her power over souls told her that human souls were in the city.

"This isn't exactly the best situation is it?" Shiro muttered since it would make helping the people a little difficult.

{Indeed. I think it's probably best for you to choose a small group to journey with you since we don't know what kind of strange effects might be applied once you enter the city. If your senses are getting blocked out here, who knows what else might happen.} Nimue warned with a frown.

"I know. But at least my soul controlling abilities are still useful. I'll see if I can recruit anyone with abilities that are related to souls. If not, I'll just get Lyrica to follow me then since she has been training all this time. It's good for her to step out for a bit." Shiro muttered as she sent a notification for all the people in the city.

It was a recruitment for those that have abilities in relations to souls. The recruitment mentioned that they'll be going on an excursion with Shiro to the city of Tokyo in order to investigate what had happened along with potentially helping the people that have been trapped in there.

Naturally, there were good rewards thanks to the high risks of this mission as they are venturing into the unknown. There was no guarantee that Shiro would be able to help them, but she'll try her best at keeping them alive if danger was to appear.

Despite the rarity of abilities in relation to souls, there were still quite a few people that applied through the recruitment.

Massaging her eyes, she decided to filter them out a little since taking 100 people into the city was a little bit too big for a 'small group'.

But before she filtered them out, she needed to pay a visit to Isilia and Lyrica since Shiro wanted to take Lyrica with her.

Teleporting to their house, she knocked on the door since they should be resting right now.

And as she had expected, Isilia opened the door not too long after her knock.

"Sorry about not informing you of my visit earlier." Shiro waved as Isilia chuckled.

"Come on in, we're having a break anyway. I'm guessing this has something to do with your recent recruitment post." Isilia asked as Shiro nodded.

"How did you know?"

"Pft, it's kind of obvious haha. So who do you need? Me or Lyrica?" Isilia asked as she gestured for Shiro to sit down.

"I'm thinking of taking Lyrica since she has been training quite diligently." Shiro smiled.

"Mn, she is in need of some more live combat experience so this would be good for her. Plus, from what I saw, it seems like this excursion would be linked to ghosts and spiritual beings that are hard to hurt with just physical power." Isilia smiled.

"Yup. Ghosts might become more common so I want to see how Lyrica deals with it. The best option would be to use elements like fire or lightning but some have high resistances. Plus, the other's are a little busy right now." Shiro smiled.

"I'm sure she'll be fine. We refined her powers a little so now her elements focus around fire and I suppose something similar to nature. Though as an elf, nature comes with the bloodline." Isilia replied while handing Shiro some juice from her fridge.

"Thanks. If she's focusing on fire, it might be worth it to see if she can get some help from Yin then since she's a phoenix."

"There's no need to rush. You'll see her power for yourself when she fights. I'll warn you though, even I was a little surprised." Isilia smiled as Shiro raised her eyebrow.

"Interesting."
