Nanomancer Reborn - I've Become A Snow Girl? Chapter 892 Offer to Winter's Grace

Chapter 892 Offer to Winter's Grace

Sitting in the café, Shiro tapped away at her phone while checking up on the recent news that was linked to Winter's Grace.
Thanks to Yuki's return, they started to progress towards being one of the top then factions thanks to her knowledge. The resource spots that they could find along with support from the Asakura family allowed her to train up powerful faction members.
They were also active in helping the community through the bounty board where the rewards were provided by the faction itself depending on how difficult the task was. If a granny wanted someone to accompany her for a day, the faction would provide the rewards in place of the granny so that she didn't spend her own money.
Overall, the public view of Winter's Grace was on the good side.
Reading this, Shiro smiled as she finished her juice and the last piece of her cake.
'Seems like it'll be good to move the headquarters of the faction to Asharia so that there's some backing I suppose. Demons will be in the city but if Winter's Grace and Rising Sun were to vouch for them, it'll help the demons integrate into the city.'
&123;Indeed. But wouldn't the Winter's Grace and Rising Sun suffer some backlash?&125; Nimue asked as Shiro nodded.
'Of course. They will definitely get some backlash but for the long term benefits, this bit of backlash will be ok. Because once the new age begins, they'll understand that Asharia welcomes everyone regardless of race as long as you follow the rules.' Shiro smiled.
&123;Mn we'll have to see though since everything could backfire and no one would want to go to Asharia.&125; Nimue shrugged.
'That is indeed a possibility but I do hope that I don't see it.' Shiro shrugged while making her way out of the sort.
/p>
Jumping into the air, she flew towards the direction of Winter's Grace.
Now that she had reached tier 6 and obtained a demi god class, the usage of her divine energy was much easier since there's not only a bigger supply, but a faster regeneration.
Shiro estimated that she could probably use 5 to 6 original spells in a fight without worry and the rest of the energy can be used for enhancement.
After a few minutes, Shiro could see the Winter's Grace Branch located in Vericia. She wanted to come to the branch first since she had two old friends here that she wanted to see first before going to the headquarters.
As for the headquarters, they had moved location's once Yuki had returned and the spot they picked was above Mount Fuji after the ice queen left. Shiro could remember that she planted an anchor here but it seems like she was able to move it considering the fact that the only sign of them ever being here was the ice city they left behind.
Since the queen had left, Yuki took advantage of this place and made it the headquarters.
Landing on the roof of the elder's tower, Shiro could sense Natash's mana signature along with Freya's.
Climbing down the side, she opened the window.
"Yo Natash, it's been a while hasn't it?" Shiro greeted as Natash dropped her pen in shock.
She was about to enter a combat stance when she noticed who it was.
"Ah it's actually you. I thought that you died in a dungeon or something considering the fact that you never came back." Natash said as her smile twitched.
"Ahaha sorry about that. I was busy with quite a few things and I even got my memory back." Shiro chuckled.
Climbing through the window, she sat down on the sofa.
"So how has it been?" Shiro asked while offering some juice.
Accepting the juice, Natash was rather surprised by how it tasted.
"It's been more or less fine. After the faction master returned the applications for the faction have increased and we're not far from becoming the top 5. If you were here, I would have gotten you to do some paperwork in my stead." Natash smiled.
"Pft you know I was just a guest elder. I don't have the normal responsibilities." Shiro grinned as Natash rolled her eyes.
"So you would have enjoyed watching me getting buried by paperwork?"
"Of course." Shiro replied instantly since it was obvious.
"Tch, so how come you're here now? With the news talking about you all the time, I can't imagine that you'll need the resources from this faction." Natash asked with a smile.
"I'm here to give you an offer. Well… I say you but it's really for everyone here. I've created a city called Asharia that's going to act as a safe haven of sorts when the new age hits. I'm going to be going to the main headquarters of Winter's Grace and ask Yuki about moving to the city too. Since I was under your care here for a while, I wanted to offer you the same." Shiro smiled.
"You made a city?" Natash was surprised since making a city was no easy feat.
"Yup. I'm sure you know how dangerous the new age is going to be. While I can't save everyone, I can try to save as much as I can. In the city there are spirits, elves, humans and in the close future, demons."
Hearing that the city will have demons, Natash frowned.
"The city will have demons? You know we are not in a good relationship right? One of the common goals for adventurers here is killing Demons. If you put the two together, they'll react like cold water in hot oil." Natash warned as Shiro nodded her head.
"I know but these Demons are governed by a proper ruler. You should know her, it's Madison. Due to some special circ.u.mstances, she has become their Queen and we know that Demon's aren't too different from humans. It's only the low tier Demons that have no sense of self similar to how bandits are." Shiro explained as Natash sat down with a difficult expression.
"It sounds nice but I don't know how the rest of the faction will react."
"I know. But whether or not they want to come is up to them. But if they choose to come, they must respect the rules that are in place. If they don't they'll be punished accordingly. I'll be going to the headquarters now. Here's a file on everything you need to know about the city. Share it with Freya so that she knows too. Tell me your answer using the number in the file ok?" Shiro smiled as the rift opened up beside her.
Placing the file on the table, Shiro left the room as Natash sat in silence and read the file.
Seeing all the defensive properties of the city such as mechs and turrets, Natash felt like it was simply impossible for all of this to be true but with her understanding of Shiro, Natash knew that Shiro wasn't one to joke around with these things.
Grabbing the file, she made her way down so that she could share everything with Freya. Even if the faction didn't want to go, she was going to go since a safe place would become a rarity in the new age.
###
&123;Seems like she's made the right decision.&125; Nimue muttered as Shiro nodded her head.
'Even though the file looks ridiculous, she knows that everything inside is true. With the threat of the new age, refusing such an offer would be a poor choice.' Shiro smiled as she opened a portal to japan so that she could go to the headquarters that was now located on Mount Fuji.
Stepping through the portal, Shiro instantly arrived in Asakura city since this was the closest she could get using her own teleport nodes.
However, it didn't bother her too much since reaching Mount Fuji was just a short trip.
Meanwhile, on Mount Fuji, Yuki had a frown on her face since there were several reports of high tier monsters as well as a Queen placing her anchor near the mountain. Knowing the power of queens, fighting her would be devastating and the casualties would be through the roof.
Biting her nail, she sighed after seeing the latest report of another Queen stationing her anchor nearby.
With two Queens as her neighbours, staying here would be difficult.
'We'll have to evacuate everyone to a different location.' Yuki thought to herself but doing so would be rather difficult.
Suddenly, a man burst into the room with a panicked expression.
"Faction Leader! A messenger from the Queens has sent demands us to surrender and work under the Queen!"
"What!? Bring me to him." Yuki frowned as this wasn't good. Standing up, she followed the man to meet this so-called messenger.
