Nanomancer Reborn - I've Become A Snow Girl? Chapter 1182 - Isvelger

Chapter 1182 - Isvelger

Walking up the giant corpse of what used to be called the betrayer, Shiro decided to circle around for a moment to see if she could discover anything that could be used as a clue. Unfortunately for it, it was just a simple corpse stuck in a swamp.
There was nothing around that could potentially give her a clue to its identity.
The only thing she could do now would be to bypass the secondary barrier that surrounds the corpse and see if she could analyse its body composition or perhaps even get a glimpse of its source code. Once she stares at the source code, she should be able to figure out a rough history of the corpse.
"Where did you say the barrier was again?" Shiro called out as Nan Tian was standing there with a small smile.
Walking forward a little, he pushed out his arm and was blocked by an invisible barrier.
"You're already pass the barrier." He chuckled as Shiro paused.
". . .Really?" Shiro asked as Nan Tian nodded.
"I can't get past this threshold unfortunately." Nan Tian shrugged as Shiro walked back to him and tried to pull him through.
However, while she is able to walk through without a problem, Nan Tian could not enter no matter how hard Shiro tried.
She even tried to open a portal for him but he was forced out of the rift whenever he entered.
"Just go, I'll wait here for you." Nan Tian smiled as Shiro nodded her head.
Approaching the corpse, she waved her hand and killed all the hidden enemies that were trying to target her while freezing the swamp so that she didn't sink.
Looking up at the corpse, Shiro tilted her head before closing her eyes.
Activating analysis EX, Shiro redirected some of Error's powers towards her eyes.
Opening her eyes, the world lost its colour as she could see fragments of coding swirling around the corpse.
However, most of it had already been repurposed into something else. All that remained were corrupted codes that couldn't be used without the new reincarnation being corrupted immediately.
Floating up, Shiro looked at the shards and tapped it with her finger.
Suddenly, millions of scenes flashed in front of her as she was immediately overwhelmed and backed off.
Without her powers as the First Born, she couldn't analyse as much information as she could before.
Clutching her head, Shiro furrowed her brows and tried to digest the information she had just experienced.
However, seeing as how a lot of it was still blurred since she didn't access the code long enough, she gritted her teeth and grabbed the code.
Trying her best to stay conscious, Shiro found herself viewing millions of memories all at the same time. There were a few that seemed to show her as Anima talking to whoever the betrayer was and some where this person was attacking fellow gods.
Trying to dig deeper, the code in her hand shattered to pieces as the memories faded away.
Standing in the air with a frown on her face, Shiro sighed since she still didn't know the reason why this was even here.
However, just before she wanted to leave, the shards of the code started to thread together into a strange golden figure that was missing the upper half of his head along with other parts of his body.
"This feeling… So you've returned your grace." The man muttered with a small smile as Shiro started at him before opening her mouth.
The moment she heard his voice, she recognised who it was. It was the first person to have ever entered her domain and told her of the outside world.
The one who she had talked to constantly when he visited so that she could learn about the outside world.
The world outside of her prison.
"I do apologise about my state. I wish I could see you in better conditions though my situation kind of speaks for itself haha." The man joked as Shiro bit her lip.
"Isvelger, what happened? I thought I had told you to stay away from the fight. If you did, they shouldn't have known about your connection to me. Why have you been branded as the betrayer and left to rot in this place?" Shiro asked as Isvelger chuckled and sat down the same way he would when they conversed back in the domain.
"Well… as the first person to bring back a fruit from your domain, it was only natural that I would be targeted. Though that's not why I left a shard of myself to converse with you right now. After I had learned of your defeat, I immediately left to finish my research as soon as I could. You had mentioned that you wanted to achieve creation during one of our conversations despite knowing the futility so I gambled. I gambled that as the First Born of Destruction, the one that keeps our universe balanced with the side of Creation, you would never truly die and that I should work towards helping your next incarnation. My life would be over the moment they find me, with the gods on their side, they knew that I took your side so the best I could do was to delay things as much as possible." Isvelger said as he tried to point towards what he had created but remembering that he had long been robbed, he sighed.
"So before my capture, I experimented with the fruit you gave me. You know that I was more of a scholar than I was a fighter and researching was my strength. In our universe, it's hard to gather pure creation energy since it has you, the First Born of Destruction residing here. Pure creation energy is in some aspects more powerful than destruction and as strange as it sounds, more destructive than pure destruction. All of the beings in this world are flawed and the moment they are exposed to pure creation, they are killed. Trying to introduce energies of pure creation into this world is the equivalent of erasing a portion of our universe permanently.
"I've done a few small experiments that ended in failure but lucky I was able to avoid being killed. Eventually, using the fruit that you gave me as a medium, I was able to introduce some aspects of creation into this world. Pure creation that had been balanced by pure destruction. The key is to activate both at the same time, never letting one being bigger than the other and they'll be forced into equilibrium. Thus creating what I like to call Chaos Energy. The fruit itself was so unbelievably unstable that it could shatter the world with a wrong move and yet it was able to reach an equilibrium. A paradoxical existence but it worked. I had wanted to give you the fruit but it had been robbed. Thus I can only try give you the notes of my research in hopes that it can help. The physical notes had been destroyed and my soul was shattered. Thankfully, I split off a portion of myself the moment I finished my research and made a deal with the system. At the time of my death, when my soul had been erased, I will become the boss monster of my own dungeon that was my lab. Within this lab, I set up a barrier similar to the one in your old domain but reserves. It used to be everyone but Anima could leave and enter but now, it's only Anima can leave or enter this part of the dungeon. When I sensed your destruction energy flare then disappear, I realised that you hadn't given up on achieving creation so I sent my dungeon to this place. Hopefully you can find information that helps you. I wish you good luck." Isvelger smiled as Shiro gritted her teeth.
"What about yourself? You did so much for me but what did you do for yourself?" Shiro asked.
Chuckling at her question, Isvelger stood up.
"I am already happy. I was able to see the truth of everything before my death. All the knowledge I could ever want, all the answers I could ever hope to get. When I introduced Chaos Energy to this part of the world, I had started a chain reaction that allowed paradoxical existences to survive. It allowed you to achieve what you had wanted all along. This is my destiny fulfilled." Isvelger smiled as bowed towards Shiro.
"Though there is one regret, I was never able to see you achieve your dream. Therefore, with my research, I hope that you can accomplish what you desire." Isvelger said as his figure started to break apart.
"It was sad to see you who loved life more than anyone suffer as you could not enjoy the joy it brought due to your power. However, seeing you now, I can tell that you're slowly but surely reaching your dream. Therefore, stand firm your grace."
Watching Isvelger slowly fade into light particles, Shiro nodded her had and looked at his name tag and smiled.
"Have a safe trip."
