Chapter 494 Messages From Aarim and Silvia

Chapter 494 Messages From Aarim and Silvia

Making their way across the northern side of China, the group bumped into a few beasts that were extremely hostile to her compared to the monsters in dungeons. Normally, they would run away and cower while these wanted her head regardless of the cost.

Thinking of this, Shiro decided to make a few items in order to prevent them from running into extremely high level monsters.

Excusing herself for a moment, she jumped into the rift.

"Right then, I’ll need a mini satellite system of sorts so keep an eye out for dangers. Since I heard that it’s very hard to keep objects suspended in the sky along with the fact that none of the attempts at sending satellites to space have worked, I’ll probably need to make a scouting one just to examine what the upper atmosphere of this world is like." She muttered while adding a few new components to the orb itself. There were a few that allowed the orb to retaliate if needed but it was mostly components to help it stay hidden in case of any high level flying type monsters.

Thinking about it for a moment, it would be slightly awkward to keep on excusing herself to send more scouts. Therefore, one of the better options would be for her to infuse this single scout with a few blueprints of mini satellites so that it could dispense these in the sky once it was sure that the place was secure.

Nodding her head, she proceeded to add more parts to the orb.

The entire process took her a few minutes since she already had prior knowledge on how she should combine and balance out the components.

After all, gathering intel was very important in Aria and the scouting orbs were something that she worked on for a short period of time. Of course, that was only until she took over every single satellite that they had sent to space with her nanobots.

It was also due to this that she could put up a decent fight against the light hero as orbital cannons would be fired from every single satellite that was near the zone, giving her that extra edge despite being weakened.

Once the orb was finished, Shiro nodded in satisfaction before hopping out of the rift at a different location.

Activating the stealth skill that she had embedded into the orb, she threw it up into the air and allowed it to fly as high as it could.

Making herself a pair of glasses, she could see what the orb was surveying through the left lens while the right displayed the internal status.

That way, she could make detailed repairs without bringing the orb back down.

Jumping back into the rift, she regrouped with Nan Tian, Keiko and Keomi.

"Where did you go and when did you get a pair of glasses?" Keomi asked curiously as they could not see the holographic display that was only visible from Shiro’s side of the lenses.

"These? Well I went to check on something but it wasn’t anything too serious. As for these glasses, I just so happened to find them in my inventory and they looked quite interesting." Shiro smiled as Nan Tian raised his eyebrows.

"Never thought that you would be one to wear glasses." He chuckled.

"Well it’s good to change the outfit every once in a while. It’ll be awfully boring to stick with the same plain old outfit for several months now wouldn’t it? To be honest, I should probably make a few adjustments to my outfit. Maybe I can get Aarim to do this for me once I finished with my task." Shiro smiled.

Even though she’s ’left’ the party, it wasn’t as if they stopped being friends so asking Aarim for a commission should still be fine.

Thinking back to the party, Shiro checked her phone and saw quite a few messages from Aarim and Silvia.

Unfortunately, there were no messages from Lyrica and Madison which pained Shiro a little but at least they should be relatively safe.

Tapping on their names, she checked Aarim’s messages first.

[There’s not much I can say, especially since the rather... sudden departure but just know that I will continue to support you in ways that I can should you need it. To be honest, I understand why you decided to do this alone since one of us is guaranteed to die if we fought against a horde of enemies. Even with the capabilities of my control spell, I still find it hard to restrain those that are much higher level than me. I’ll continue to develop spells that can help the party catch up to you so that you all can reunite with each other in the near future, hopefully. Perhaps a spell that is strengthened depending on how much the enemy struggles? Smart people can get out of it quickly but it should still provide a few seconds of respite if I succeed haha. Anyways, I’ll try looking after the party with your two daughters so you can do your task without worries.]

Smiling softly, Shiro was glad that Aarim could continue to look forward and find ways to get stronger. She would need that if she wanted to survive the next age.

Switching to Silvia’s tab, Shiro read her message.

[I’ll be honest with you Shiro since we’ve had our ups and downs, especially considering my last party. Both you and Madi are quite stubborn. She chose to tank so that she could share and take the burden off the shoulders of the party while you like to take everything on by yourself so that we would be safe.]

[Both of you have views on keeping the party safe but it seems the final straw has been unfortunately snapped due to this incident. Madi was tired of having you take everything on by yourself since you’re endangering your life at the expense of keeping us safe and in all honesty, I feel like you and Madi are very similar in certain areas. Unfortunately, life is unfair and it seems like the danger just keeps increasing especially with the Ragnarök like situation coming in the future. I also think that Madi understands this which is why she got annoyed at the fact that we couldn’t help you as much as we could despite trying so hard.]

[Perhaps what happened is good for the party so that we can all find our callings in order to get stronger individually. Who knows, next time we regroup could be when everyone is A class. Of course, I hope that isn’t the situation since friendsh.i.p.s grow with the hardsh.i.p.s that we endure with one another. This was probably one of Madi’s reasonings since she is always the relaxed one in the group despite all the shenanigans that happen. Seeing her outburst made me realise how much she was enduring. She is still young after all. As for you, you made me realise your determination in keeping everyone safe. Which of course, is good in nature. But as many would say, the path to hell is paved with good intentions. I don’t know what the future holds but I do know that they will challenge high level monsters to get stronger. This could be risky as there’s always the chance of it being much harder than we anticipated and die in the process. A grim note but a realistic one, unfortunately.]

[Anyways, it hurts me to see good friends being split apart so come back when you can and resolve this misunderstanding ok? Lyrica’s probably the most affected since you know what her feelings are like for you. Seeing that you suddenly excavated yourself from her life as such must be quite a devastating impact for her. Anyways, just know that me and Chen Yu hope you stay safe out there and good luck with your task.]

Reading through Silvia’s messages, Shiro couldn’t help but agree with her thoughts. Yes, she was stubborn and she understood that. Perhaps what she needed is for the party to punch her in the face, telling her how strong they had become and that they didn’t need her protection. That they weren’t the level 10 hatching adventurers that she once knew them to be. However, until that happened, Shiro was going to continue to shoulder her burdens alone. That was who she was.

"You have good friends." Nan Tian smiled as Shiro nodded.

"Mn, they’re the best ones I can ask for." She said with a soft smile. Storing the phone away in her inventory, she looked on with renewed vigour.
