Nanomancer Reborn - I've Become A Snow Girl?-Novel

Chapter 547 Domination

Flickering towards Furmis, Shiro didn’t hold back and activated her Celestial Raiment with Astral Rift as the base element.

Shrouding herself in a cloak of shadows, her figure disappeared and reappeared behind Furmis.

Surprised at the sudden burst of speed, Furmis could only shield herself with a rotating stream of fire.

"Sorry, I counter it." Shiro narrowed her eyes and pushed her palm out.

Sending out a wave of cold mist, a torrent of ice shards pierced into the stream of fire and started to evaporate into steam.

"Tch." Clicking her tongue, Furmis jumped back and prepared to retaliate when Nan Tian appeared next to her.

"Hey, don’t mind me, I’m just giving her a hand." Nan Tian laughed and sent an orb of light into Furmis’ back, launching her body back towards Shiro.

Seeing this, Shiro didn’t waste the opportunity and brought out Athera with Cosmic Ice as the base element. Twisting her body, Shiro slashed towards Furmis while activating her Takemikazuchi technique.

Watching the sword slash towards her chest, Furmis tried to raise a defence to block the sword. However, Shiro only smiled.

Refraction, a skill that allowed her to duplicate her sword and camouflage its location. In addition to this, Shiro had also enhanced her sword with Celestial Path making it so that it was able to negate any barrier that Furmis would have tried to activate.

*PING!!

Shattering the initial barrier, her sword phased past Furmis’ guard like a ghost and stabbed deeply into her chest.

"Kuh! B*tch!" Cursing out loud, Furmis swiped her hand horizontally as several tier 5 magic circles flickered into existence.

Threatening to unleash hellfire onto her body, the magic circles pulsed ominously.

However, compared to Aekari’s cast time, these magic circles were abysmally slow in Shiro’s eyes and she had all the time in the world to react to them.

Pinching the fingers of her spare hand together, several nanotech needles were formed and she threw them towards the magic circles that had locked onto her.

*PING PING PING PING!!!

Shattering into tiny pieces, Furmis’ guard was once again open for Shiro to attack.

Watching the sword come towards her, Furmis panicked. She wasn’t used to her current avatar so she couldn’t unleash all of her power.

Unfortunately, Shiro wasn’t one to care about fairness as her sword travelled mercilessly towards Furmis’ neck.

"Don’t you want to know about the anchor!?" Furmis shouted out in an attempt to buy herself some time.

This caused Shiro to pause for a single moment which allowed Furmis to dodge the blade just in the nick of time.

"Well, you have my attention. Are you going to spill the beans or do I need to kill you and find out myself?" Shiro smiled while twirling her blade slightly.

"Sure I’ll tell you about it. No point fighting a losing battle." Furmis raised her hands up as Shiro narrowed her eyes.

Activating her Analysis skill, she could clearly see Furmis’ mana circulating rapidly meaning she has no intention to surrender.

*Sigh.

"Well aren’t you dishonest. I’ll have to teach you a lesson then." Shiro sighed and dashed towards her using Rift Strider.

Activating her skill, Kietoma, Furmis’ body was instantly paralysed for a second. While her guard was down, Shiro then activated the skill, Hollow Deceit. Nine phantom copies of her figure flickered around her as she stacked up quite a few assassination type skills into a gauntlet of sorts.

Stabbing her sword into Furmis’ throat, Shiro didn’t hesitate and decapitated her in an instant, sending her head soaring through the sky.

However, as she did this, Furmis’ body exploded into a ball of fire, causing burn marks to appear on Shiro’s arm.

Furrowing her brows, all Shiro did was flare her Life Fire for a few moments and her wounds were gone.

With how high her INT stat was, her Life Fire was basically an instant heal at this point. Naturally, the MP cost was super high but it was a drop in the bucket for Shiro’s 1 billion worth of MP. Plus, it would regenerate all in just a few minutes due to the passive effects of her sword.

"You’re definitely higher than level 200. Do you really think that your disguise can fool me?" Furmis narrowed her eyes as her body slowly reassembled not too far away from Shiro.

"Pft! Hahaha! Lil’ Tian, did you hear her? She thought I was lying about my level." Shiro laughed as Nan Tian could only look at the woman with pity in his eyes.

As she was a mage, Shiro was the literal definition of her natural counter. All of her skills revolve around denying a mage of their best weapon.

Unless her cast activation was to the same standard as Aekari, there was no way she could pull off a high level attack type spell without Shiro editing it first. Meaning, there was no way for her to fight at 100%. Hell, he didn’t even think she could fight at 10% of her power against Shiro.

At the same time, just because she was set up to completely shut down mages doesn’t mean her hand to hand combat was weak either. In a situation where she is fighting against a fighter, she had a myriad of skills to help her even the playing ground. Whether that be physical enhancements, trickery or shields, she had them all.

To summarise her situation, unless you could suppress her through brute strength alone, you should give up on any thought of dealing with Shiro less you piss her off and she comes back with a vengeance. She was akin to a tiny snow ball that someone rolled off the top of a snowy mountain. This snow ball will eventually become an unstoppable avalanche.

Thinking of this, Nan Tian couldn’t help but look at Shiro once more and wonder what comes after becoming an avalanche. After all, she was basically unstoppable already. He has yet to see anyone that could stand up to her in a fair one on one fight.

Seeing Shiro acting so relaxed in this fight over the world anchor, Furmis couldn’t help but grit her teeth in anger.

"If you are so relaxed, then try facing me at my strongest." Furmis glared while a tier 5 magic circle expanded around her.

"Sorry, I’m not stupid enough to let you power up. While I do enjoy a good fight, I’m not going to be giving out easy opportunities for you. If you want to power up, you have to earn it. Naturally, if you are able to power up despite my interference, it means that you can at least provide me with some decent entertainment. However..." Shiro trailed off as her body disappeared from her spot.

"I just don’t’ think you can provide that for me." She smiled and roundhouse kicked Furmis in the ribs.

*CRACK!!!!

Sending her body flying towards the wall of the room, Shiro only chuckled and dismissed her sword.

After the short exchange earlier, she could already roughly gauge her fighting prowess as of this moment and it wasn’t one that would give her any worries.

"I don’t need to give you any entertainment!" Furmis muttered in anger while holding her ribs. Blood could be seen dripping from the corner of her mouth as she raised her hand to her lips.

Covering her thumb with her blood, she drew a quick magic circle in the air in front of her.

Sighing softly, Shiro snapped her finger, causing several ice spikes to shoot towards the magic circle.

However, Furmis grinned and pulled out an item.

Crushing the orb in front of her, a tether suddenly appeared between Shiro’s ice spears and Furmis.

{Shiro! She’s siphoning your mana from your mana realm!} Nimue cried out in a panic since she could see fire chains piecing through the borders and absorbing the mana.

"All of your mana will now be mine to use." Furmis laughed as the flames around her amplified in size. While she was laughing at the surge of power, she couldn’t help but wonder why Shiro had so much mana in her. Compared to her current reservoir, Shiro’s reservoir was like a deep ocean where you can’t see the bottom. Even while absorbing Shiro’s mana, Furmis could detect that more was being regenerated every second.

’What the hell?’ She thought to herself but tried to keep herself composed.

After all, with all this mana, she could finally use her power as a Fire Queen.

Looking at Furmis, Shiro sighed.

"I’m not one to give you false hope so let me extinguish it early."

Activating Celestial Garden, with Cosmic Ice as the base, a blinding light washed over their vision as they were forcefully dragged into Shiro’s domain.

Looking around her in shock, Furmis couldn’t believe what she was seeing.

"Now then, I’ll give you one last choice. You either tell me what I know or I’ll destroy your avatar right here and now." Shiro said while pointing her finger up.

Tilting her head back, Furmis gasped at the sheer size of the magic formation that was appearing above the place.

Crafted from hundreds of tier 5 magic circles, a single cast of this could render the entirety of the wasteland to ash.

"Well? Will you speak and make things easier for this Empress?" Shiro smiled and looked down at the Fire Queen.
