Nanomancer Reborn - I've Become A Snow Girl? Chapter 900: Timer

Immediately switching her attention to her mana realm, Shiro could see that that island that Estrella was on started to change with her attempt at evolution. A thin dark barrier surrounded the border making it seem like the island was being sent into her pocket dimension. Glancing up at the ceiling of her mana realm, Shiro could see golden runes melt into liquid that slowly dripped onto the top of the barrier before diffusing across the surface. Understanding that her identity as a Demi God was changing Estrella's evolution slightly, Shiro sat patiently and didn't remove her eyes from the island at all. She could barely make out Estrella's figure on the island as she looked as though she was in pain. She was currently gritting her teeth while her eyebrows were furrowed. A layer of darkness was spreading across her skin and it slowly reached her neck. However, a golden choker which seemed to be made from Divine Energy prevented the darkness from covering her entirely. Seeing that her expression relaxed ever so slightly, Shiro sighed softly since that darkness might cause her to fail should it cover her entire body. Slowly, golden crests appeared on the back of her hands and in the centre of her chest. The crests was a side view of a woman which slowly disappeared, taking the layer of darkness with it. *BANG!!!! Piercing into the realm of tier 6 and solidifying, the barrier was completely covered with darkness which prevented them from seeing Estrella but they knew that this was a good sign since it was acting like a cocoon. She had already passed the hardest step so the rest should be smooth sailing. Follow current on novelenglish.net

Watching the barrier shrink, Shiro narrowed her eyes as the barrier stretched itself over Estrella's body. *KRRR!!! Cracks started to spread across the surface as it shattered apart to reveal Estrella who's appearance had changed slightly. She now had pure black hair with streaks of purple, her eyes were black and a ring of purple could be seen near the pupil. She wore a sleeveless skin tight undershirt that was connected to a choker, a black sleeveless shirt which exposed her shoulders which connected to a waist guard. Long strips of fabric flowed down the side of the waist guard as she wore a short skirt and tights with a pair of boots. She also wore a pair of separated sleeves that bloomed out around the wrist area and were coloured black with hints of purple. Under the sleeves were a pair of black gloves that was a perfect fit for her hands. Of course, Shiro's main focus was not her appearance but rather her title card. [Estrella LVL 501 Dimension Walker] Reading her class name, Shiro was a little surprised since this could possibly mean that she could seek out the old gardens that might have failed. Quickly dashing to Estrella's side, she helped Estrella sit down properly before checking her body with analysis to make sure that she was feeling ok. Seeing that she was just a little tired, Shiro sighed in relief. Opening her mouth, Estrella wanted to say something but she lacked the strength to speak after a tough ascension to tier 6. 'You can tell me later. For now though, just rest.' Shiro smiled as Estrella furrowed her brows before nodding her head. Making her a home for the time being, Shiro placed her in the bed. 'Nimue, help me look after Estrella just in case something happens to her.' Shiro glanced at Nimue who was already making herself comfortable in the house. Follow current on novel-online.com

&123;Don't worry I know. Her ascension into tier 6 has been more violent compared to the other's.&125; Nimue nodded. 'Mn, maybe because it finished sooner than expected. We did estimate that she would finish in a few days.' Shiro frowned while looking at Estrella who was sleeping soundlessly on the bed. Shiro knew that the evolution must have taken quite a lot out of her as she didn't even have the strength to say anything. &123;Maybe. With Estrella finishing her evolution a bit earlier than expected, you now have five tier 6 beings with more to come as well. You, Estrella, Madison, Nan Tian and Isilia. Lisandra is still undergoing her evolution, Keiko is digesting the knowledge you gave her and your parents are also working hard. Honestly, the fact that we have so many tier 6 beings makes us a match for any of the Queen's. We can probably eliminate the most powerful ones the moment the age begins so that they can't get any stronger.&125; Nimue suggested. 'I agree. But we don't know where their main anchors are. Let's not rush it. While the lower tier Queens are nothing compared to us, there are those that still pose a big threat to us such as the Chimera Empress. I remember her giving us quite some trouble even though she was heavily injured.' Shiro frowned as Nimue nodded her head. Talking to Nimue for a little longer, Shiro focused on reality. Nan Tian had already finished all the things that were on her to do list and he was making his way back to the command center. Seeing Shiro standing on one of the platforms that overlooked the mech hanger, he walked up to her with a smile. "Did you enjoy your nap?" He asked as Shiro nodded her head. "Mn, I enjoyed it even more knowing that you had actually done all my work for me." Shiro smiled. "Well it was better for me to get it done quickly than leave it for later." "True. Also, Estrella's reached tier 6 now. Her evolution seemed a little rushed so she's just recovering from the backlash right now. Now that we have 5 tier 6 beings, I think a head on confrontation with a few of the high ranked Queens is ok. An example being the Beast Queen, Thiria. We know where one of her branch anchors is so we can probably get rid of it quickly." Shiro suggested. "Hmm… But how many branch anchors does she have? Surely the one in Clomore isn't the only branch anchor that she has. With anchors giving the Queens more strength the longer they're around, the Clomore Anchor must have given her quite the boost. Fighting her won't be easy unless we can get rid of all her branch anchors, making her lose a good portion of strength. Plus, our information about her is limited." Nan Tian cautioned. "I know. My future self had also cautioned me about Thiria so I won't charge in blindly. I'll get as much information as possible before attacking her. I'd say she should be one of our top priorities considering the fact that she'll get stronger as time passes and she's already got a head start with her anchors." Shiro frowned.

"We'll see how it goes. For now though, let's just do what we can." Nan Tian smiled as Shiro nodded her head. ### Sitting around the table, the five primordial gods all had serious expressions on their face. Even the cheerful Gaia who had been rather infatuated with Shiro didn't look at the monitor showing Shiro at all. They were instead focusing on a timer along with a monitor that showed the spirit of the garden crumbling away in the pocket dimension. The timer ticked away as there were 4 hours until it reached zero. "Four hours left huh?" Gaia muttered as she looked at the timer. "Mn. After four hours, the entire world will change." Nyx nodded her head while drinking some tea. "I hope Shiro overestimates the Queen she'll fight first since she'll fully understand the importance of Anchors once the world changes." Gaia sighed. If Shiro overestimated them, she'll be able to fight with the right amount of caution. "Do not worry about her. I'm sure she'll be able to handle them with ease. Though it's a little annoying to have our messages censored by the system so that we can't tell her more about the anchors." Tartarus shook his head as Ouranos agreed. "That's fine though. The system won't be able to do much during the second part in terms of censorship. We'll be able to provide her with as much information as possible." Ouranos shrugged. "Mn, but if she's not careful she'll be killed before the second part. Even if she's a Demi God right now, she's still in a lot of danger considering the powers that a few Queens have." Gaia pouted since these old men didn't share the same worry she had for her darling. "Just trust in Shiro, Gaia. Aren't you the one who believes in her the most out of us?" Nyx chuckled as the other three gods nodded their heads. "Che, just because I believe in her doesn't mean I don't get worried about her getting hurt." Gaia rolled her eyes before looking at the Monitor that showed Shiro tapping away at a keyboard while talking to Nan Tian. 'Please don't underestimate the power of anchors.' Gaia thought with worry. Watching the timer tick down, the gods could only watch in silence.
