Nanomancer Reborn - I've Become A Snow Girl?

Chapter 1248: News About Lyrica's Training

Looking at one another for a brief moment, the two couldn't help but laugh.

"Well I guess I should be glad that she's this supportive?" Shiro joked as Lyrica nodded her head.

"Though dad seems like he'll need a moment to digest everything."

"All things considered, it went rather well. Shall we head back? Tomorrow I'm going to arrange a meeting between me and everyone. Gaia, Hades and Mother are cleaning things up and the same for the other gods." Shiro nodded her head.

Since the system was down right now, it was a little difficult to communicate with everyone. However, with some slight adjustments, Shiro could try to reboot the system though she doesn't know how successful it'll be.

'I'll need to take a trip to the realm of gods if I want to find Aria.'

Since she knows that Aria is now a fragment of the First Born of Creation, Shiro wanted to know what Aria knows. Perhaps she had memories of why the original First Born of Destruction wanted to end everything. The truth behind the third party.

While they were making their way back to their room, Lyrica decided to grab Shiro's hand while looking away out of embarrassment, causing Shiro to chuckle.

Meanwhile, Yin, who was eating in the cafeteria with Nitha suddenly sat up straight. The piece of meat in her hands dropped on the table as she narrowed her eyes.

"Wait a second…" She muttered softly.

"If you're full you can just tell me. I'll eat the rest." Nitha shrugged as she tried to take Yin's share of food.

"Hell no! I just sensed something weird, that's all. Attie, did you sense that too?" Yin asked as Attie, who had gotten used to accompanying Yin wherever she went nodded his head.

"Lyrica just held hands with mom."

"And she didn't get rejected…" Yin furrowed her brows before widening her eyes.

"Oh f*ck do we have to call Lyrica mom as well now?"

"You don't know?" Nitha tilted her head in confusion.

"Know what?"

"They're a pair now ya know? Mating season." Nitha nodded her head as both Yin and Attie froze up.

"Well… Mating season might be the incorrect way to describe it. Hmm… well they haven't f*cked yet so. I thought they did back in the otherworld but they didn't." She shrugged as both Yin and Attie immediately pulled out their phones. Creating a private group chat with the others they spread the news along with confusion.

"Speaking of that, lemme go find Asher." Nitha licked her lips as she grabbed some food before jogging away. Unknowingly setting off several bombs of knowledge behind her.

"So Aekari died." Aria frowned in annoyance as she waved her hand. In front of her, a holographic screen replaying the fight appeared. Once the fight ended, Aria punched the table in front of her.

Gritting her teeth, she took a deep breath to calm herself.

"Shiro has surpassed her original self… Can I even beat her now?" Aria stumbled back and sat down in defeat. She couldn't kill her in the first place since she was the lifeline. But the stronger Shiro gets, the more dangerous it becomes for everyone living in this world.

Biting her nails in anxiousness, Aria wondered what else she could do. She had already shut down the system and taken care of the admins to slow things down but it's already too late.

"Sh*t!" Aria cursed out in anger as she stood up and threw the chair against the wall.

Storming around the room, she tried to think about all the options she had. The gods were ants in front of Shiro now. The system can no longer bind her. Realm travel is no issue for Shiro.

It's only a matter of time before Shiro appears before her.

"The other 'First Born's' can't fight her either. She's already surpassed the original First Born of Destruction." Aria muttered.

In that moment, a chill was sent down her spine as a being of incomprehensible power lurked behind her.

"Out of options already?" Her voice sounded out.

Quickly turning around and backing off, Aria widened her eyes in shock.

"*****? How are you here?" She questioned, confusion filling her mind.

"So many questions… But I don't want to answer. I can't have you giving up, since you're the final hurdle for her after all." The woman grinned as she narrowed her eyes at Aria.

Feeling the gaze sweep over her body, Aria felt her blood drain as the eyes held a mix of fatigue, anticipation and delirium. Just the gaze was enough to paralyze her body from head to toe as the sense of death was creeping ever closer.

"Let's see… Shall I give you the remaining fragments of creation? But that won't be enough to test her power. She's already mastered both sides after all…" ***** muttered before walking around Aria.

"Oh I know, I'll make use of Chaos. You'll be able to handle her power since you're a shard of creation. Right~?"

Grabbing Aria's chin, ***** leaned in and narrowed her eyes. Insanity burned in her gaze as the corner of her lips curled up into a wide grin.

A murky black and red energy flowed from her fingers into Aria's body, causing her to spasm with pain.

Her vision blurred as she tried to open her mouth. A myriad of questions flooded her mind but she was unable to ask them.

Once she was satisfied, ***** let go of Aria and took a step back.

"Good luck~ You will be able to survive this transfer of power, I made sure of it. As for how much pain you'll endure… It should be over relatively soon."

Waking up in the morning, Shiro made her way down to the cafeteria for some food with Lyrica following behind her. The moment she arrived, she felt a series of gazes from Yin, Attie, Lisandra, Madison and many others.

Raising an eyebrow, Shiro scratched her hair.

"Is there something wrong with my face?" She asked curiously.

"Nope, don't mind us." Yin waved her hand but her eyes darted back and forth between Shiro and Lyrica.

Still confused, Shiro sat down and started to eat some breakfast while Lyrica did the same.

Shuffling next to her, Madison leaned towards Lyrica.

"Pst, why the hell didn't you tell me that you and Shiro were a thing?" Madison asked, feeling slightly annoyed that she wasn't the first to know and it was Yin who told them everything.

"PFF!!" Choking on her drink, Lyrica widened her eyes as Shiro's face palmed.

Shiro knew that Nan Tian wasn't the one to spread these kind of things so she instantly swept her gaze across the group and noticed that Yin seemed to be trying to hide.

'Stupid daughter of mine…' Shiro rolled her eyes.

With no other choice due to Yin, Shiro admitted to it, receiving congratulations from their friends.

Thankfully, this was over quickly as they needed to deal with Hades and the others, sparing both Shiro and Lyrica from the embarrassment.

Once the group was gathered at the main hall of the tower, Shiro brought up a hologram of the world that marked down the locations of their allies.

"Hades and the others are still recovering from the attack, some have sustained some rather bad wounds so Silvia I want you to make your way over quickly. I'll be visiting Nyx alone so that we can cover more ground. We don't know if there will be more attacks so everyone will be split into groups of 2 or 3 depending on party composition with the exception of Lyrica." Shiro ordered as she started to allocate groups for each God.

"Remember, the goal is not to fight for now. The goal is to regroup and recuperate." She reminded since they don't know what else their enemies have under their sleeves. If they could disable the system and place a barrier that siphoned their power to such a degree, it wouldn't surprise Shiro if they had a final back up.

Even with Zeus and Aekari gone, there are others who'll take their place. It is only over once Aria is dealt with along with the unknown third party. And that is where Shiro needs to place her attention.

Everyone else needs to get strong enough to deal with gods and first borns on their own like Lyrica first.

"Once you are done with making sure our allies are rested, it'll be time for training. I'm sure Lyrica will be able to cook up a good appetizing training plan before I come back and give you the main course." Shiro joked as they dreaded what Shiro was planning on making them do.

"If appetizers meant a dose of death I'll pass." Nitha groaned as Asher agreed. After all, they had first hand experience with Lyrica's training.

"Death?" Silvia tilted her head. After all, their training sessions have always been near death experiences and never death inducing.

"She controls samsara reincarnation stuff. Making us live a life then kill us in that life as training is pretty standard." Nitha sighed while Lyrica pretended to not hear any of that.

Ignoring the fact that death was now on the menu for training, the group finished up some final discussions.

Watching everyone set off to their respective destinations, Shiro prepared to go meet Nyx.

If anyone knew the way to the realm of gods for her to try to find Aria, it was Nyx.
