Chapter 1067 Stamp of Approval

Chapter 1067 Stamp of Approval

".. ." Feeling speechless by the name, she decided to enter and ask questions later.

The moment she opened the door, she heard the bell ring like in restaurants.

"We have a customer! Esil! Go greet them!" Misu shouted out from upstairs.

Quickly scrambling to his feet, Shiro could see Misu’s subordinate hiding his phone in his pockets before adjusting his suit.

"Welcome to Misu’s Fantasy 100% Guarantee Detective Agency. No matter what you lose or what you find, we’ll locate it within two days." Esil declared as Shiro looked at him blankly.

"Mn?"

Realising that his tie was crooked, he quickly adjusted it and flashed the best smile he could muster.

Staring at him with dead fish eyes, Shiro was about to turn and leave.

"Ahhh before you leave, why don’t you try a freebie first? As the first customer you get the first service for free. We can guarantee that we’ll complete it perfectly." Esil said as he quickly blocked her way out.

*Sigh

Waving her finger, Shiro closed the door with mana before dismissing her disguise.

"Ah! Your highness, I apologise about that." Esil froze up in shock before bowing.

"It’s fine. Care to tell me what’s happening here?" Shiro asked while massaging her eyes.

"You see, we haven’t gotten any customers just yet. They seem to be... frightened off by Misu’s naming sense of the shop. They seem to believe it as a scam." Esil sighed as Shiro shook her head.

"I see... regardless I need to talk to Misu anyways so you can think of me as your first customer." Shiro said as Esil led her into the shop.

Coming down from the second floor, Misu was wearing stereotypical detective clothing with a pipe cigar.

Breathing in, she coughed violently and threw the cigar away.

"How may I he- Ah Shiro." Misu said as she noticed who was in the chair.

"Hi... So this is your store." Shiro said as she glanced around with a difficult expression.

"Yup. You know, I was wondering about what kind of place I wanted to make. My life as a cleric was behind me after becoming a necromancer so becoming a healer was out of the table. Plus, I’ve already lived through that kind of life once. I wondered if I should teach necromancy but well... it’s necromancy so I’m not eager about teaching that. I wanted to help people so I looked around the internet and seeing as how quite a few people struggle with losing things and need help finding them, I decided to become a detective." Misu smiled happily as she took off her jacket and hung it up.

"So if anyone needs help tracking someone down, finding their lost items, they can come here and commission us to find it for them."

"And seeing as how Esil named me the first customer, I suppose business is not going well." Shiro raised an eyebrow.

"Well it’s only been a day and a half. I’ll get business soon." Misu coughed as Shiro could see the doubt in her eyes.

"I see... well regardless, take me as your first client then. I want to know some information on what the Ice Queen obtained when she won one of the events along with anything she has been involved with." Shiro asked as Misu thought about it for a moment.

"Oh that’s easy. When the Ice Queen won, she obtained a weapon that heavily amplified her power with Ice along with two skills. We don’t know the second skill but the first allows her to summon the embodiment of ice in a battlefield. She used this skill against Thiria and managed to push her back since the gains weren’t worth the losses. We don’t know the cooldown since she hasn’t used it since but it would be safe to assume that she has the skill back already. Until you have something that can combat her ice, I would suggest that you avoid fighting her. At least, that’s the advice I would give to other Queens." Misu shrugged as she sat down in front of Shiro.

"In terms of the things she’s been involved with, there’s not much. On the surface, she’s pretty quiet. It just seems like she’s focused on developing her cities rather than making more. I have eyes on two of her cities but no clue on where the main one is."

Hearing this, Shiro furrowed her brows.

"How strong is her ice? If I was to fight her using fire, how effective do you think this would be?" Shiro asked as golden fire appeared in her palm. Due to her connection with both Attie and Yin, her own flames have been empowered to their standard.

"This? Well, it’s certainly powerful and could counter her quite nicely. But since there are a lot of variables that we don’t know about yet, try to avoid a fight if you can. I haven’t had any run ins with the Ice Queen so I can’t say much when it comes to her personality, quirks and so on." Misu sighed as Shiro nodded her head.

"Well this is good enough. Better than going in blind."

"I mean, if you want more I can get some information for you by tomorrow." Misu offered as Shiro raised her eyebrow.

"You can?"

"Yup. Why do you think I have the 100% guarantee on the nameplate." Misu smirked as she gestured outside the door.

"Fair enough then. If you can get me some information by tomorrow then it would be great. What kind of information would you be able to get?" Shiro asked curiously.

"It depends but anything specific you have in mind?"

"Hmm.... How about some information on her whereabouts and her guards within the fort. If she’s not there, it would be rather bad for me to show up personally since it’ll make it seem like I’m beneath her." Shiro said as Misu nodded her head.

"That’s easily doable. Come back by sunrise and I’ll have everything ready."

"Alright. Oh even though this is supposed to be a freebie, I’ll leave a little tip." Shiro smiled as she left the building. Snapping her finger, a new stamp appeared next to the name.

The stamp had five stars and a Shiro seal of approval written next to it.

Seeing that the Queen of this city had just exited the new store that was built, everyone was surprised for a moment as they watched her open a portal and leave the place.

Glancing at each other, their view on this shady place started to change.

After all, if the Queen of the city gave it her seal of her approval, especially when it’s someone like Shiro, it might not be as bad as they thought.

The name might be a little weird but they can overlook that.

One by one, people started to queue up outside the building. With new customers entering each moment, Misu found herself to be rather busy.

###

Making her way back to the command centre, Shiro could see that Nan Tian was a little surprised to see her back so soon.

"Misu said that she was going to investigate the Ice Queen for me before I go visit her so that I have some downtime." Shiro explained as she sat down.

"I could tell. It’s become a hot topic quite quickly." Nan Tian said as he pointed towards the video of her leaving the store and giving it her seal of approval.

"Her store does have quite a... interesting name I have to admit." Nan Tian chuckled as Shiro nodded her head.

"That’s true. But it’s fine. She’s enjoying herself after all." Shiro chuckled seeing the video of Misu grinning from ear to ear as she received more requests. Compared to her future self, this Misu seems much happier.

Her problem of reviving people properly will be solved once the event ends and she can enjoy herself by indulging with her hobbies.

Seeing that Misu could enjoy herself to this extent since her wish has been fulfilled, Shiro wondered if she can do the same for the others. After all, the system was blatantly lying to them about their second chance. The hopes their people have for them have long extinguished and all the Queens were working towards a non existent goal.

Whatever the Ice Queen desires, whatever the Beast Queen desires, it doesn’t matter since the system won’t be the one to grant it. At the end of their journey, if they win this new age, all that awaits them is the cold abyss where everything is reset. She doesn’t know what will happen should she get rid of this system nor does she know how she could achieve this.

But with the things that she has discovered so far, she could already understand why she got rid of it in the future.

Narrowing her eyes at her system interface, Shiro thought about the methods that might work when it comes to removing the system.

’Let’s just hope that it doesn’t come down to it soon. I still need the system around for a little while.’ Shiro thought to herself and shook her head.

With her waiting for Misu’s information, she decided to just relax for the rest of the day and prepare herself for tomorrow.
