Nanomancer Reborn - I've Become A Snow Girl?

Chapter 640 Item Master

Chapter 640 Item Master

Looking at the man, Shiro was rather surprised to see that he also had white hair and red eyes much like her.

"Care to give me your name?" She asked with a chuckle.

"Hm... It’s been quite a long time since anyone has asked me for my name. But I suppose you can just call me Seig." Seig smiled as he snapped his fingers.

Two chairs appeared in the empty space.

Sitting down on one of them, Seig gestured for Shiro to sit down as well.

"Thank you. So care to tell me what kind of skill I’ll get?" Shiro asked while crossing her legs.

"What kind of skill do you want? Or rather, what kind of skill do you think will make you the strongest in the world? You don’t want to be the strongest swordswoman but rather the strongest in general. That means transcending your system as it currently governs everything that happens." Seig replied.

"Since you seem to be the owner of this place, why don’t you tell me the best skill that you have?"

??There is no ’best’ skill per say. Only the best execution of a skill. While there is a large difference between low level skills, high level ones require the user to be good at using them. In that regard, every skill in the high levels is the best skill. You just need to know which one suits you more." Seig shook his head.

"I understand that, hence why all the tests before this room. Therefore, I’m asking you which skill matches me the most."

"So despite wanting to be the best in the world, you want ’me’ to dictate what skill you get?" Seig raised his eyebrows as Shiro narrowed her eyes.

"Yup. After all, as someone who is most likely tier 8 or perhaps higher, you would know the ’best’ skill in terms of raw stats and hidden mechanics."

"Interesting. You have a set of beautiful eyes which wants to peer into everything." Seig smiled.

"Thanks for the flattery but I think we should cut the conversation short. I have places to be and things to do." Shiro waved her hand.

"Fine. I wanted to talk a little longer since it has been quite a while since I had last come into contact with anyone in a garden. But I understand. After all, you have such a huge burden weighing down on your shoulders." Seig narrowed his eyes.

Waving his hand, lights started to converge towards his location as they started to form a golden book.

Flipping through the pages, he tore one out and pushed it towards Shiro.

Reaching out for the page, Shiro watched as the page merged into her body the moment her hand came into contact.

"I have given you what you desired. What you do with it is now no longer my concern. I suppose I should say good luck young one. Even though you asked for my name, you shall forget about me the moment you leave this place." Seig smiled as Shiro felt her vision blur.

Once Shiro was gone from this space, a woman materialised next to Seig and wrapped her arms around his neck.

"You sure you don’t want to tell her more? I can sense that someone quite powerful has given the girl her support and it isn’t Nyx." The woman asked as Seig shook his head.

"No, she’ll find out sooner or later. The records state that she’ll meet her soon." Seig replied as the book in his hands faded away.

Snapping her eyes open, Shiro saw that she was still in the training hall. Rubbing her head, Shiro furrowed her brows and frowned.

"Sh*t what was his name... He did say that I’ll forget his name but I didn’t forget him." She muttered as the person who she was talking to seemed to know more than what he was letting on.

Sighing softly, she decided to set it aside for now and check out the new skill that she got.

[Item Master - ???]

You can use any item to its maximum efficiency. This is only limited by your power and knowledge.

"Mn? Item Master? I thought he gave me a sword skill. This is just a miscellaneous skill." Shiro frowned, feeling ripped off that she had used a Rainbow grade item for this skill.

However, there was something that caught her attention and that was the three question marks.

The last time she had seen this on a skill was Extraction and that was a broken skill that allowed her to steal other’s skill along with taking their life away.

Understanding that there must be more to this, Shiro decided to test it out and summoned her sword.

Swinging her sword around for a moment, it didn’t feel any different.

{Why are you just swinging your sword around?} Nimue asked as she yawned. She had just had a short nap and woke up to Shiro swinging her sword randomly.

"I used the Dagger that Teach gave me but the skill I got from it was strange. It isn’t a sword skill nor technique even though the description clearly says that it would give me one." Shiro replied with a frown.

{Maybe you’re not doing it right. Show me the skill and I’ll have a look as well.}

Showing Nimue the description of her skill, Shiro waited for her reply.

{The f*ck? Are you sure this is what you got from the Dagger????} Nimue asked with disbelief.

"You see what I mean?" Shiro sighed.

{Yeah I do. What the hell. Do you feel any different with your sword?}

"Nope. It feels normal like usual." Shiro shook her head.

{Maybe if you properly tried to attack something?} Nimue suggested.

Nodding her head, Shiro created a target and narrowed her eyes taking a deep breath, she was about to swing her sword when her mind became clear. It was like she understood every intricacy of her sword, it’s stress limit, what she could do without breaking it and how to get the most power out of each attack.

Shimmering with a golden light, her sword seemed as though it was enchanted by the very heavens itself.

Seeing this, Nimue had a bad feeling well up in her heart. Wanting to call out to Shiro to make her stop, she was unfortunately too late.

Sending out a wave of energy, all of the ambient mana in the room was instantly devoured by Athera and the surrounding barriers shattered to pieces.

Before Shiro could even shout ’Oh sh*t!’ she watched as her blade of energy cleave through the walls of the training hall and started to travel towards the rest of the mansion.

"Err...." Looking at the destruction in front of her with a twitching smile, she glanced back at her parents who rushed here on the first sign of danger.

Looking at the trail of destruction that Shiro’s attack had left behind, Koji couldn’t help but want to cough up blood. After all, he had instructed people to set up the best barriers around each training hall so that they won’t be destroyed but Shiro had just shattered every single one of them.

Even Stanley when training with Aarim, Yin and Silvia didn’t cause this but his daughter did.

"What happened?" He asked with a forced smile.

"I was testing a new skill and well... I didn’t realise that it would destroy the house." Shiro looked down with embarrassment and poked her fingers together.

"Wouldn’t you know what your skill did? I’m pretty sure a skill will tell you how powerful it is." Koji asked once more. He could still see pieces of his mansion crumbling to the ground due to the lack of supports.

"Well..." Explaining her skill to her parents, they wondered about how powerful Shiro’s sword must be for it to be able to destroy all of the barriers they had set. In order to repair everything, they might have to take quite a while as the barriers were quite special. They needed components to make sure they keep working with only the occasional maintenance.

"It’s fine. Don’t blame her darling. Honestly, how many times did you destroy our house when we were younger?" Mio pouted as she hugged Shiro.

"This..."

"Ignore your dad. He’s just sad that the house is broken and that his room is destroyed." Mio waved her hand as Shiro nodded.

"If you want, I can use my nanobots to fix the house." Shiro offered since this was her fault. She didn’t expect her attack to be so strong with the Item Master skill.

"Don’t worry about it darling. Let’s just go have some food now, Yin’s got a banquet ready for everyone. Thankfully, you didn’t attack towards our direction or else we’ll have nothing to eat." Mio chuckled as she led Shiro out of the training hall and towards the dining hall.

After eating dinner, the party rested up for the night and prepared to leave the city tomorrow. They were going to see if there were anyone in the adventurer’s guild with the teleport shrine to Mount Olympus. If not, they’ll have to ride Shiro’s jet again and some of them aren’t too keen about that.
