Nanomancer Reborn - I've Become A Snow Girl?

Chapter 623 Abnormal Party

Chapter 623 Abnormal Party

"So you’re telling me, that if I become the Demon Queen, I don’t have to marry myself off to some d*ckhead and you guys don’t become slaves?" Madison asked just to make sure that everything is correct.

"Indeed." Akog nodded his head.

"What about if a Queen ascends rather than King? What would happen to me then?" Madison asked.

"Should a Queen ascend instead of a King, the other Queen candidates are severely weakened and they lose all of their previous privilege. In addition to this, the candidate’s location will always be revealed to the Queen so that she may deal with them as she sees fit."

Furrowing her brows, Madison stayed silent.

After all, if she did not participate in this, her life is basically over.

"You haven’t told me the impact of Demon Gods yet. If I become Queen, what happens with the Demon Gods?"

"When you become Queen, the Demon Gods will share a portion of their power with you because you are the catalyst for summoning them to the world. In your case, that will be Demon God Markon. When the Demon God is summoned, he gains a buff from the system which allows him to suppress the other Demon Gods. Think of it like this, the benefits for Demon God Markon is that he gets to suppress the other Demon Gods and prevent himself from being taken down a peg. Plus, if you’re wondering about your safety, Demon Gods don’t make a move on their candidates as it is essentially stabbing yourself in the foot."

Narrowing her eyes, Shiro opened her mouth.

"If she was to become the Demon King, wouldn’t that mean we’ll become enemies? For the new age to end, doesn’t there need to be a single victor?"

Hearing this, the party stayed silent as this could be very problematic.

"That is indeed the case. However, there have been cases where a Queen is taken out of the competition but they keep their lives. I’m not too sure about how it’s accomplished but the possibility is there." Akog nodded his head.

Finding out about the possibility of sparing Madison, Shiro sighed in relief.

"Man that would be annoying if me and Madi had to fight to the death." Shiro leaned back as the party nodded their heads.

"So I presume that you came to this city because of Madi and you want to take her back with you?" She asked once more just to make sure that they understood the situation.

"That is correct. While we did have a rather... ’rough’ start, I believe the demons should be overjoyed about you coming to the Demon Continent." Akog nodded his head.

"Mn, but I don’t want to go just yet. You see we still have things we need to do in the human continents first." Madison sighed. This was naturally a lie.

While she now understood that she was part demon, she wanted some time to digest everything.

"That’s fine Princess. There is still sometime before the new age. I’ll contact you again when time is running out." Akog nodded his head and pulled out a crystal dagger.

"Swipe this in the air and a tear in space will open up. I will then be summoned to your side should you need me." Akog bowed.

Taking the dagger, Madison looked at the other demons before back at Akog.

"How are you going to get everyone out then? We may or may not have organised a raid against this place in a day or so."

"Ah..." Hearing that there was a raid on this spot, Akog paused and blinked his eyes.

"We should be able to make a new tunnel out of this city. Once we’re out, we’ll be able to make our way back to the Demon Continent. We might suffer some casualties but it’s worth it seeing as though we have discovered you."

Looking back at the mounds of demon corpses piled up by the side, Madison couldn’t help but feel a twitch creep up on her smile.

"Right... worth it."

Watching the demons leave, Madison turned to the party.

"So how many of them did we kill in the end?"

"Hmm, everyone killed around 85 in total I think. We weren’t able to kill too many of them before Akog arrived." Shiro shrugged as Madison sighed.

"How the hell could he have a peaceful talk with us even though we’ve just killed 85 of his comrades."

"No idea. So how does it feel to find out that you’ve been abnormal all along? Lyrica’s an Elven Princess, I’m a Spirit Empress, Yin’s a Phoenix, Lisa’s an Angel and Helion is someone that is chosen by a god. With you, we now have a future Demon Queen in our party. We just need Aarim, Silvia and Chen Yu to become abnormal and we’ll be a party of abnormals haha." Shiro laughed.

"First of all, there is nothing normal about Silvi as her regeneration is ridiculous. No offence."

"None taken." Silvia chuckled.

"And second of all, I JUST WANTED TO BE NORMAL GOD DAMNIT!" Madison cried out as she kneeled down and slammed her hands against the ground, causing a spider web of cracks to expand out.

"I think it’s that same surge in emotion that caused this. Remember when he said strong desire? Do you think that your desire to become normal after meeting Shiro caused you to become abnormal?" Helion asked as he patted her shoulder.

Pausing for a moment, Madison realised that this could have indeed been the case.

"SH*T!!!!"

Allowing Madison to calm down a little, Shiro turned to the party and asked the question that they were all wondering about.

"What should we do about the raid tomorrow?"

". . ."

"Do you think an ’ah sorry, I made a mistake’ would work?" Shiro asked with a smile.

"Yeah there’s no way that’s working." Lyrica chuckled.

"Hmm... do you think I should use an alias then? Remember when my guns were shown to the world and they called me the ’Rogue Assassin’, god that nickname still makes me wanna throw up, I use my appearance as the assassin and claim the credit of the raid." Shiro suggested as the party nodded their heads at the plausibility.

"That could work. Plus, they don’t know how powerful your guns are yet so you can convince them that you did indeed kill all the demons. But there’s only one problem with that. They’ll be able to detect Akog and the others." Madison pointed out.

"That’s where Yin comes in. You see, since Yin also has the Rift Walker skill, she can drag everyone to the Rift and leave while I keep them busy. That way, they can’t detect you lot leaving."

"Alright. How should we do this then?"

Explaining the plan to them, they all looked at Shiro with scepticism before nodding their heads.

Making their way to the demons, Yin gestured that she was ready to transport them all away.

Grinning slightly, Shiro wrapped herself in nanobots as she changed her appearance to suit her ’Rogue Assassin’ alias.

Flipping her wrist, she summoned several guns around her before aiming towards the ceiling of the cavern. Her goal was to blast a hole to the top to notify everyone while making sure that she avoided any casualties. In addition to this, she’d spread some of the corpses around the place so that it seemed like a large battle occurred. And just to sell the act a little more, she needs a huge surge of mana.

As the holder of 1.5 billion points of mana, this should be an easy task for her.

Slamming her hand down, a giant magic circle started to expand as she funnelled as much mana as she could without overwhelming her mana links.

"Are you girls ready for some fireworks?" Shiro laughed as she had all the guns shoot towards the ceiling.

*Sigh

Massaging her brows, the guild master of Vatican City looked at the city with a complicated expression. From what she understood of Demons, the entire city will become a battlefield tomorrow so they needed to start evacuating the citizens soon.

Just as she was musing about what she should do, she felt a huge surge of mana from below the city. The pressure emitted from this source was one that caused her knees to buckle.

"What the hell!" She cursed.

Trying her best to stand up, she glanced out the window just in time to see the giant pillar of energy shooting up into the air.

*BANG!!!

Feeling the entire city shake, she was knocked over once more as she was not prepared for the shock.

"£^%^%$^£!!!! GOD DAMNIT!"

Grabbing her phone, she notified the staff to call all available adventurers to check out the scene. Dragging herself back on her feet, she stormed towards the source of the explosion.
