Nanomancer Reborn - I've Become A Snow Girl?

Chapter 897 Demon Queen

Chapter 897 Demon Queen

Standing on the edge of Asharia, Madison watched as they flew above the ground. Looking at the small villages that passed in a blink of an eye, she stayed silent and fell deep into thought.

"Are you alright?" A voice called out as Madison glanced back and saw Helion.

"Mn, I am. Just kind of in awe at everything that’s happened. Shiro was able to create this masterpiece, I became the ruler of a race and basically became one of the most powerful people in the world." Madison chuckled as Helion smiled.

"That tends to happen when you hang out with Shiro." He shrugged while standing next to the railings with her.

"Indeed. Looking at those tiny villages really makes you think huh? How power makes them seem so small and insignificant. I feel like I could destroy it if I accidentally squeezed too hard." Madison sighed as she looked at the villages that were smaller than her hand from this height.

"While they seem small and insignificant, you’ll never know if there’s anyone in there that has the potential to become someone great. I think that’s quite amazing that you can find a hidden gem anywhere in the world. Even in the most unlikely places." Helion chuckled.

"Mn, I don’t even know why I’m acting like this. I guess becoming responsible for an entire race is really setting in now." Madison laughed as she tilted her head back and looked up at the sky.

"It’s a tough responsibility."

"I know. I just don’t know if I can do it well. I was never that good at studies so my knowledge outside of combat was limited. My ability to judge people has been a bit poor as Shiro could tell thanks to the friends I had before I met her and Lyrica. If it wasn’t for our little bet, I would probably become a villainess of some sort." Madison smiled softly.

"I’m sure you’ll do fine. You got everyone here to support you after all. I don’t know what you were like before but now you have friends that you can rely on." Helion encouraged as Madison nodded.

"Seems like you two are having a rather romantic talk. Wanna fill me in on the details?" A voice called out from beneath them as a white and red mech hovered in the air while maintaining a pose similar to laying on the bed. It had its chin resting on the hands while the legs kicked back and forth.

Opening the c.o.c.kpit, they could see Shiro sitting there with a smile while the rest of the party was inside.

"Want to hop in? I was just showing them what the standard units could do since some of them missed the demonstration." Shiro asked as Madison glanced at Helion and shrugged.

"Let’s go." She smiled as Helion nodded.

Hopping into the mech, Shiro closed the c.o.c.kpit before diving down close to the ground.

"So what were you guys talking about? It seemed like you were worried about something. Of course, if it’s about your love life we won’t pry." Shiro chuckled.

"Hais, where is your mind wandering to while piloting this hunk of metal." Madison sighed while knocking Shiro’s head slightly.

"Hehe, just curious." Shiro laughed.

"It wasn’t anything too important. Just wondering if I’ll do a good job as a Queen." Madison shrugged.

"Ahhh you’re worried about that. The responsibility is rather heavy isn’t it?" Shiro nodded in understanding.

"Yeah, sometimes I just feel like throwing up when I think about the responsibilities." Madisons sighed.

"Honestly, just find someone capable of organising things and drop everything to them. Occasionally show your face and you’ll be fine." Shiro encouraged with a thumbs up as Madison raised her eyebrow.

"What?"

"Why do you think I leave everything to Nan Tian? If I had to deal with everything I’d be exhausted." Shiro shrugged.

"But he’s left to deal with everything now." Madison reminded.

"I know but he’s got Samuel to help him along with the other Spirit Council members. Plus, Keiko let me borrow some of her capable staff to help out with a bit of the organisation of the place. Honestly, I just deal with the combat side of things rather than everything else since I’m a bit dull in that regard I suppose." Shiro laughed since it was the truth. She was much better at combat compared to everything else hence why she left everything up to Nan Tian and the others. Part of it was because she trusted their capabilities and the other part was just that she couldn’t be bothered.

Hearing what Shiro had said, Madison couldn’t help but shake her head.

"Well I guess I’ll look for someone specialised in paperwork which might be a little hard considering the fact that the demons are a race that focus on strength. All of them are basically battle junkies." Madison shrugged.

"Well that’s more your problem than mine hahaha, good luck." Shiro laughed as Madison rolled her eyes.

While they travelled towards the Demon Continent, Shiro showed off what her mech could do and asked if anyone of them wanted a mech of their own. However, the party rejected since they already had their own fighting style and changing to mechs would actually hinder them. However, if it was a suit of armour that enhanced their abilities, they wouldn’t mind since Shiro had shown them the armours before.

After hearing their response, Shiro made a mental note of it and decided to work on personal armour units when she had time. Each of these armour will be tailored to each of them so that it brings out their best abilities. It’ll take a while to design but the payoff would be worth it.

Upon arriving in the Demon Continent, they immediately made their way to the central region since that was where the majority of the demons resided.

Plus, after the fall of the candidates and Madison becoming the Queen, Asphil had everyone put their focus on the central region since Shiro had ordered her to do this in order to make things easier.

Calling for Asphil, the party waited outside of the new capital.

Rushing towards them, they spotted the silhouette of the demon that they had been waiting for.

"I apologise for not greeting you sooner your highness. Congratulations on your ascension." Asphil kneeled down in front of Madison as she nodded her head.

"Mn it took a while but we’ll proceed with the plan now. How are the demons? Are they comfortable with the thought of living in Asharia while abiding by the rules?" Madison asked as Asphil made a difficult expression.

"I’ve tried to prepare them but many aren’t listening to me. Even if I try to suppress them with my strength, they said that the Queen has not spoken personally so they won’t follow the order." Asphil replied as Madison frowned.

"So they’ll only follow it if I show myself huh?"

"Indeed. You may need to be forceful in your methods since you need to remember that many of these demons were subjects of other candidates." Asphil reminded as Madison narrowed her eyes before sighing.

"Alright, I’ll handle this." Madison shook her head.

"Good luck Madi, if you need us, we’ll be here." Lyrica encouraged as Madison smiled.

"Mn, I’ll keep that in mind."

Stomping down, shadows swirled in front of her as a portal opened up.

Stepping through the portal, she disappeared from the area as dark clouds loomed over the main city.

*BOOM!!

Flashes of red lightning could be seen as a demonic aura wrapped around the entire city. Those that were weak found themselves unable to move from the fear.

The clouds started to swirl towards a single point as Madison appeared above the city. Her red hair fluttered in the wind as an army of demons appeared behind her.

Demon Queen skill: March of Demonic Generals!

Their bodies were created from shadows and they donned black and red armour that radiated cursed energy. Each of them felt no weaker than tier 5 as their weapons gleamed menacingly.

Looking down at the city, she could see all the demons looking at her with shock while their weapons quivered in their hands.

"When the Queen arrives, are you not to bow in her presence?" Madison asked coldly as her tier 6 aura crashed into the bodies of the demons, focusing them to kneel against the ground. Those that tried to put up a fight had their knees broken and forced to kneel.

"Despite showing myself, it seems like you wish to fight against me. The one that rules this race from now on. If you want to rebel, show yourself so that I can give you a swift death. If you don’t, your ending will make you wish you revealed yourself." Madison warned as killing intent drenched the city, colouring it with a red hue.

*Whistle~

Watching this performance, Shiro wanted to wipe away a silent tear.

’Look how Madi has grown, she’s a fine woman now.’ Shiro praised in her mind as Nimue decided to not comment at all.

Seeing that no one revealed themselves, Madison sighed in her mind but didn’t express it on her face.

"Since there are none that want to revolt, I presume that the rest of you are devoted to me then. If I wanted your life, the only answer I should be hearing is yes." Madison narrowed her eyes as her shadow loomed over the city like a bad omen of what’s to come.
