Chapter 969 - Shiro and Thiria

Looking at the shocked expression on Edvimar's face, Shiro couldn't blame him since she was just as shocked when she saw him from the distance. The moment his face was revealed, she understood why it seemed so familiar to her.

However, they could talk later after she dealt with the Beast Queen.

Looking back at the Beast Queen, Shiro narrowed her eyes.

"You can speak now." Shiro said with a smirk as Thiria chuckled.

"Look at how your ego has grown. Did becoming an Empress-"

"Of course my ego has grown. Have you seen me? I know it's painful for someone like you to crane your neck up to see someone as fabulous as me but can you blame me? Don't I just look adorable?" Shiro cut her off smugly while flipping her hair.

She just wanted to piss her opponents off so that their attention is distracted. After all, there was something special being created just for her beneath her feet. It would be quite sad to see it miss.

Being cut off for the second time, Thiria stopped smiling as she could already feel anger building up.

"Rude one aren't y-"

"I wouldn't say rude but it's more about who has the priority of speaking you know? As an Empress, I'm one rank higher than you. I'm technically your senior in terms of rank. Of course, age might be a different matter since a granny like you deserves some respect. Even if you're already a foot in the grave." Shiro sighed with a shrug.

"F*ck it." Thiria cursed as her aura burst forth.

Snapping her fingers, Shiro destroyed all of the magic circles that tried to form themselves by enhancing her nanobots with celestial path. Since she had reached tier 8 in attunement, her control over nanobots had increased dramatically.

She can replicate the effects of her upgraded Celestial path by spreading particles of nanobots into the air.

"I shouldn't have said that should I? Old people like you are prone to heart attacks. If I say any more, you might die on me." Shiro snickered.

Just as Thiria opened her mouth to retort, a nanotech spike shot out of the ground as chains wrapped around her leg, preventing her from running.

Widening her eyes, Thiria didn't hesitate to cut off her legs as she flipped back, dodging the spike.

"Che, I was trying to do you a favour too. An old person like you won't get any action in bed. I can promise you that the spike will give you 100% pleasure. I know it's a little intimidating since it's sharp but once you get used to it, it'll be fine. Though I haven't tried it out myself." Shiro shrugged.

"Oh but don't worry, I have great reviews of those that have tried this out. None of them submitted negative reviews." Shiro clapped her hands together with a smile.

Furrowing her brows, Thiria healed her legs.

Before she could even activate another spell, she felt danger behind her as she quickly activated a barrier.

*PING!!!!

Watching the barrier shatter to pieces, Thiria widened her eyes in shock as Shiro's sword lacerated into her body.

Nanobots exploded out as Shiro immediately had a full scan of Thiria's body but before she could outright kill her, Thiria traded places with a clone.

Stepping out of a portal, she narrowed her eyes at Shiro who was demonstrating raw power much higher than what she should currently have.

"Yeesh, you're an annoying one to kill aren't you? Though I can't say anything since I'm not any better." Shiro smirked.

"It's a shame but I'll admit. I'm not a match for you right now." Thiria narrowed her eyes.

"Right now? Aren't you confident." Shiro chuckled.

Shrugging her shoulders, darkness enveloped the area as a giant set of jaws appeared in the air.

Quickly looking up, Shiro swiped her hand up as a saw blade materialised in the air and shredded the beast in half. Quickly slamming her hand down, Shiro tried to activate the nanobots she had placed on Thiria's body but she had already traded places with another clone.

Sighing softly, Shiro felt a little annoyed but this was expected. With the progression of the weapon, the power that she could lend to this avatar was decreasing. Her attacks are 70% effects and 30% power and her power was decreasing with each passing moment. It's actually quite good that Thiria decided to run since Shiro wouldn't have been able to do much if she stayed.

'While I do want to kill her now like what my future self had suggested, it's a little difficult.' Shiro thought to herself before turning to the party of humans behind Edvimar. When she had arrived, she made sure to check their souls to see if they were 'good or evil' and surprisingly, all of their souls are pretty clean. The muscular guy seemed to be a little tainted but his soul was becoming slightly cleaner with each passing moment which meant that he was trying to correct his actions. As for the monster, it was the purest of all of them.

Landing in front of Edvimar, Shiro scanned his body since she noticed that he was injured.

Realising that it was a soul injury, much like the one she had suffered, Shiro frowned.

"What happened? How come you're here?" Shiro asked as Edvimar sighed.

"It's a long story but how is Isilia?" Edvimar asked as Shiro smiled.

"Don't worry, she's safe. Right now she is helping me with a task. But before we talk about her, I want to know why you're here. If my information is correct, you should be dead." Shiro asked as Edvimar nodded.

"I know. It's a long story but trust me on this, I need to warn Isilia. Someone is after her life."

"Who?" Shiro narrowed her eyes as she wasn't about to let someone kill her best friend after she had just got her back.

"Let's talk elsewhere. This place is not safe." Edvimar suggested as Shiro nodded her head.

"Sure. Would the rest of you be interested in coming to my city? Don't worry, there are no contracts involved and as long as your friend doesn't attack people, which I doubt, we won't have any problems." Shiro asked as she turned to the rest of the group.

Looking at one another, they glanced at a Lyle who couldn't take his eyes off the corpse of his brother Eric.

Kneeling in front of the mass of flesh, his body shook as Shiro noticed a dark aura wrapping around his body. Immediately noticing that it was a sign of transforming into a fallen, Shiro didn't hesitate to flicker behind him and knock him out.

"What are you doing!" Cadmi shouted out in shock as Shiro glanced back.

"Sorry, I had to knock him out since if I left him alone, he'll never be able to return. He was about to transform into a fallen over his grief and in this state, his only goal would probably be to kill the Beast Queen. Once that is complete, he'll become a mindless beast with his conscience consumed by the system." Shiro explained patiently as she quickly healed Lyle's body before handing him over to Asher who seemed to be the leader of the group.Find authorized novels in , faster updates, better experience, Please click #'ve-become-a-snow-girl_14064812306272705/shiro-and-thiria_52265329602122733 for visiting.

"So what do you say? If you don't want to come to the city that's fine too." Shiro asked as Asher glanced back at the group.

"I hate to admit it but we're a bit over our heads with this one. If Edvimar trusts her, I'll trust her too. I'm planning to go with them." Asher said as Cadmi and Gordon paused for a moment before nodding their heads.

"Perfect. Oh by the way, everything you saw earlier is a bit of an act to annoy the Queen. I'm not usually like that ok?" Shiro apologised with a soft chuckle and opened up a portal.

"Edvimar, I'll need to borrow Isilia for a bit longer but once she's done with her task, I'll send her directly to you ok?" Shiro smiled as he furrowed his brows.

"Don't worry, it shouldn't take long. The relic will be appearing in around 8 minutes so I'll hand her back to you then. For now, you can talk with your daughter instead. I'm sure she'll be happy to see her father alive and well." Shiro smiled as Edvimar widened her eyes.

"Wait, my daughter is with you too?"

"Mn, Lyrica is in the city right now so you should catch up with her during the 8 minutes." Shiro nodded her head as Edvimar could feel his heart pound. At best, he was hoping that in the time he had left, he would be able to see his wife. He didn't want to be too greedy and ask for more but the fact that he could meet his daughter was nothing less of miraculous to him.

Suppressing his emotions right now, he looked at Shiro and opened his mouth.

"Thank you." He said before rushing through the portal.

"You're welcome." Shiro replied.

Glancing to the rest of the party, she gestured for them to enter the portal.

As they each entered, Shiro glanced towards the peak for a moment before closing the portal. Now that she had sent them to safety, she'll continue her travel towards the peak.
