Chapter 826 Moving Homes

Chapter 826 Moving Homes

Teleporting the spirits back to the capital, Shiro’s first task was to distribute the scanners so that the spirits could recreate their homes and register on the fortress.

Setting up a few ’stalls’ with drones to help distribute the scanners, Shiro called for all the elders and showed them around the fortress. There wasn’t much need in terms of manual management but it was still helpful. There were jobs they could do in the main tower such as controlling where the next destination would be.

Despite the amount of AI that were controlling the city, she still needed a council of sorts.

As she was showing the elders around the city, they were shocked by the size and advanced technology.

The weapons, armour and training manuals that Shiro had shown them were extremely precious and the fact that she could actually mass produce them was a blessing.

On top of this, what she had shown them was just the surface of everything this city had to offer. Once they digested this information, she’ll have AI teach them more.

After a while, they should be able to act as a proper command centre that will relay information to her during battle. While she could micromanage the information by multitasking, it would be suicide to do so against the queen’s since they’re not weak enough for her to face them with half of her attention.

Each of their attacks required her full focus to be dodged so she could not afford the leisure of focusing on a different task.

That way, they could report any changes to her during battle and she’ll be able to act accordingly.

While Shiro was showing the elders around, both Nan Tian and Isilia were also doing their own research on the city as there were facilities created just for them.

For example, Isilia wanted a library along with labs so that she could continue her experiments. She was also given a house since she’ll be living here with Lyrica once they meet up again.

Showing the elders around took them a whole day since there was simply too much to cover. As for the situation of the spirits moving to the city, it was progressing nicely as many of them have already finished scanning their houses.

With the AI constructing the buildings on the main platform of the fortress, the entire city started to look much more lifelike.

Shop buildings were added and schools were being constructed. In regard to the schools, their buildings were much bigger than the one in the spirit capital since they had to move hastily.

Therefore, they couldn’t afford to have large schools built but with the protection of the fortress, proper schools could finally be created.

With rumours and news being passed around the community, even those that didn’t go to the plaza understood what was going on and claimed scanners for themselves. There were a few stubborn people who had demands and requests.

They would say things such as if you don’t fulfil these basic requirements, I won’t move but Shiro didn’t mind so long as the requirements were not outrageous.

If they were just there to test her limits then she wouldn’t care. That was her bottom line. As long as it’s sincere, she wouldn’t mind extending a helping hand.

After a busy day of showing people around, Shiro sat down on her bed and laid on her side.

Sighing out softly, Shiro closed her eyes and decided to have a short rest. While she may have a lot of stamina, her mental fatigue was building up since she had to attend to quite a few things during the time she was escorting them.

Thankfully, after the initial introduction, Nan Tian and Isilia could take her place in showing them around as they had a general idea.

{You’ve been working hard today.} Nimue chuckled as she was currently sitting under a tree within Shiro’s mana realm.

’Mn, moving everyone to the city and having them adapt is going to take a while. If I was forceful with my methods, I could get them to move within the span of two days max but it wouldn’t give them time to adapt.’ Shiro sighed as she appeared in the mana realm.

Hugging Attie, she sat next to Nimue and closed her eyes while stroking Attie’s hair.

{Do you have the time for a slow move though. Don’t we have quite a few things to sort out such as Madison’s role as the potential queen?} Nimue asked.

’Mn, I also need to reunite Lyrica and Isilia. My plan was to move the fortress to the demon continent but it seems like it’ll take a while. I’m sure they don’t need me here all the time since the AI will help them with their problems. Everything they need should be prepared and by the time we’ve finished with Madison’s problem, everyone should have finished moving to the city.’ Shiro replied without opening her eyes.

{Mn, speaking of the city, what does Asharia even mean?} Nimue asked curiously.

’Back in Aria, Asharia had two meanings depending on the word you use with it. The first is Asharia Nilua which means Unstoppable Fortress. The second is Asharia Yuani which means Fortress Utopia. Since this place is supposed to be both a weapon and a safe home for the spirits, Asharia just fit the situation in my mind.’ Shiro replied.

{Sounds fancy.} Nimue chuckled as Shiro shrugged.

’A little.’ Shiro smiled as her breathing became even and she fell into a light sleep.

Seeing this, Nimue shook her head and sighed.

’Looking at her like this, one wouldn’t think that she’s the destroyer of common sense.’ Nimue mused as she watched Attie shuffle out of Shiro’s arms before using her lap as a comfy pillow.

Resting for a few hours, Shiro yawned slightly before getting up since she had other work to do. She was going to stick around for roughly a week max before returning back to the party.

Glancing out of her room, she could see the moving going well as people were becoming familiar with the process. Some of the spirits started to help one another in order to increase the speed and others were already registering for jobs in the job centre. Surprisingly, there were quite a few who wanted to be in the army which surprised Shiro since she had expected them to enjoy the quiet lifestyle for a bit.

However, since they wanted to join, Shiro would let them and they were given ’help packs’ to assist them in getting stronger such as a dummy which would adjust itself to your level. Of course, there is a limit to how strong the dummy was but at higher levels, they’d be allowed to use skills so that they could hone their senses during combat

She hasn’t revealed the guns, mech suits and others just yet since throwing too much at them would make things a little overwhelming. Once they’ve gotten some training, she’ll slowly introduce the guns for them.

Making a few final checks, she called both Nan Tian and Isilia to her room.

Once they arrived, Shiro had them sit down by the table.

"Since everything is moving as planned, I’ll be stepping out for a bit since the party needs help. Isilia, are you able to join me since it’s about time you met Lyrica again. Nan Tian, are you able to stay around to supervise just in case? Plus, I want you to familiarise yourself with the fortress as much as possible." Shiro asked as Nan Tian nodded his head.

"Sure, I don’t mind staying around for a while, it’s not like I have anything else I need to do. I can just gain EXP by meditating." Nan Tian smiled since this was the benefit of being able to ’cultivate’ through circulating his mana. While the gains weren’t as much as what he could get by slaughtering his way through hordes of enemies, it was good enough for now.

"Mn that’s perfect then. What about you Isilia?" Shiro smiled and turned to her friend.

Staying silent for a moment, Isilia sighed.

"Sure. I have to see her eventually."

"I’m sure it’ll go fine." Shiro grinned since she knew that Lyrica treasured her family.

Even so, Isilia was worried since she had neglected her child for so long even though she’s technically still alive.

Giving Nan Tian a few instructions on what he should familiarise himself with, Shiro and Isilia made their way to the teleport shrine. Pulling out her phone, Shiro contacted the party for the first time in a while.
