Nanomancer Reborn - I've Become A Snow Girl?

Chapter 1179 - Veril

Chapter 1179 - Veril

Seeing that Shiro was taunting them, Tartarus glanced at the rest of the four and gestured for them to prepare their spells.

Activating a buff, Tartarus threw his greatsword towards Shiro.

Creating a dagger from destruction energy, Shiro parried the greatsword to the side. However, just as she parried the weapon, Tartarus teleported besides her and grabbed the sword.

Twisting his body, he swung towards her neck.

Curling her lips, Shiro attempted to grab the sword but it vanished before she could lay a finger on the blade.

Seeing the blade phase through he hand and slash towards her neck, Shiro immediately bent her body back and stabbed the dagger towards Tartarus' heart.

Gritting his teeth, Tartarus continued his attack and changed the direction of his attack so that it cleaved towards her head.

'Ah, since they know the spells don't work on me, Chronos has decided to focus his spells on Tartarus. He's speeding him up through the Time Stream so that his actions seem like they're phasing through my guard.' Shiro thought to herself as she immediately figured it out with a quick scan of the battlefield.

With how fast she could capture information even without the help of Analysis EX, it was easy for Shiro to figure out what was happening.

'Gaia is activating parts of her domain to increase the regen and defence of her teammates while Nyx is preparing some support spells since she knows her main attacks will be countered by me. Chronos is trying to help Tartarus increase his chances of hitting me while Ouranos is covering for everyone. He'll divert the destructive energy that I send towards them. However, there is a limit to how much he can divert and if I use too much of my power he'll be killed. I want to train them not kill them. Usually I would beat them to near death then heal them but it's very hard for Gaia to heal destruction attacks so I'll try not to use that for now. Therefore, hand to hand combat it is.' Shiro thought with a smile.

Dropping into a hand stand, Shiro grabbed Tartarus' arms with her leg and swung herself behind him before the sword could reach her. Twisting her body, she hit his wrist, forcing him to drop the sword.

'Sorry about this.' Shiro apologised in her mind as she gathered energy into her arms.

Slamming down on Tartarus' shoulders, she slammed him through the floor until only his head was showing.

Jumping up, Shiro created a dagger and threw it towards Nyx, breaking the spell that she was creating in her hands.

"Sh*t!" Cursing out loud in annoyance, Nyx reinforced her body since she could see Shiro charge towards her.

Taking a step back, she wanted to make a bit of distance but Shiro was too fast.

Appearing in front of Nyx, Shiro punched towards her stomach only to use that as a feint. Her spare hand chopped towards Nyx's neck, forcing her to flip back and slam against the ground.

Grabbing Nyx's leg, Shiro threw her towards Gaia before ducking down to avoid Ouranos' attack that was augmented by Chronos' power.

Since she had used time magic before, she could feel the ripples instantly and prepare against it.

"What the hell is wrong with this avatar!" Ouranos shouted in frustration.

Slamming his hand down, a wave of force exploded out and forced everyone into the air and activated his domain.

Third Gate of Destruction – Argia!

Releasing an AOE that absorbed all of the energy that Ouranos was funnelling into his domain, Shiro controlled her strength before firing the orb below her.

*BOOM!!!!

The explosion forced all five of the gods away from her giving her some space to cast spells. However, since she wanted to use hand to hand, she used this to split the five of them apart to make it easier for her.

Stomping down with all her strength, she catapulted herself towards Gaia and grabbed her by the collar.

'I'll apologise with a mech next time we meet.' Shiro chuckled and jumped up into the sky while dragging Gaia behind her.

"Who the hell do you think you're touching!" Gaia shouted out as vines burst out from her palms, forcing Shiro away from her.

During the fight, Gaia noticed that Shiro was holding back on using her destruction spells along with reducing their cast times. So she figured that if she was to activate her spell instantaneously in close proximity, it should hit without any problems.

Her guess was right as Shiro was locked in vines for a short moment. Her energy was drained from her body as it allowed Gaia to regroup with everyone else.

Taking a deep breath, Shiro tore the vines apart and narrowed her eyes.

Gathering mana by her feet, she launched herself towards them like a missile.

"Sh-"

*CRACK!!!!!

Before Gaia could finish her sentence, she felt Shiro slam into her ribs at full force, breaking a few of them in the process and catapulting her body through the building in the centre of the lake.

With Gaia out of commission for a moment, Ouranos charged at Shiro in anger.

Using the wind to boost his speed, he appeared before Shiro and slammed his palm against her chest only for it to be blocked by Shiro's arm.

Grabbing Ouranos by the wrist, Shiro slammed her spare hand up and broke it before elbowing him in the centre of the chest, cracking the bones and forcing him to cough up blood.

Suddenly, Chronos appeared from behind Ouranos.

Without activating a spell circle, he channelled his divinity and summoned the spells he stored outside of the time stream and forced them back into this world.

Seeing that she was surrounded by deadly attacks, Shiro chuckled and activated her First Gate of Destruction.

It was the first spell she had created with the intention of breaking her prison.

First Gate of Destruction – Veril!

Coating her arm with the power of destruction, Shiro grinned maniacally and aimed her attack towards the sky.

*BANG!!!!!!

Releasing a beam of pure destruction, all of the attacks that Chronos prepared were obliterated. The attacks that managed to avoid this pillar were destroyed regardless due to the connection to spell.

Feeling the powers of pure destruction, Shiro couldn't help but laugh at this feeling.

A well of joy sprung up from the deepest parts of her heart. The joys of crushing everything in her path. The carnage that she could bring. The blood that she could spell.

Everything was null in the face of destruction.

"Pft ahahahahahahha!!!!" Letting out a howl of pure laughter, Shiro was reminded of the time she decorated the labs with the insides of the scientists. A memory of pure ecstasy and happiness.

It felt like something in her mind had snapped as Shiro couldn't stop her laughing at all.

###

Looking at the figure that started to break out in laughter, all five of the gods felt a chill down their spine.

"When's the last time you felt this feeling?" Gaia asked as she was healing herself to the best of her abilities.

"When I was about to die. This avatar's lost her mind." Tartarus said as his armour had been fractured by Shiro's attack despite being one of Hephaestus' best works.

"Yeah, it's like when a beast has lost all care. I don't think she'll be holding back like she did before." Nyx frowned.

"So you noticed that she had been playing with us." Chronos laughed bitterly.

"Should we try what we've been practicing for the war?" Nyx asked but she already knew the answer.

"Well if we didn't then I doubt we'll get the chance." Gaia said as all five of them released their aura's.

Releasing their true forms, all five of them could now control their divinities to their maximum potential.

As this was a trial, there was no need to ask the system for permission to use this form.

All inhibitors were off!

Charging forward, Tartarus was like a demon from the deepest parts of hell. His skin was now akin to lava while armour covered his body. A cape of pure red energy fluttered behind him while volcanic rock erupted from the ground, transforming the garden into a second hell.

Twisting his body, Tartarus instantly appeared before the figure as Chronos had erased the time it took for him to reach that position.

Just as the figure was about to dodge Tartarus' attack, black chains manifested and locked her in place. Since Nyx knew of her destructive powers, more chains continued to appear in order to replace the ones that will break.

*BANG!!!!!

Shattering the chains apart, a looming black shadow erupted out, pushing Tartarus back as his arm was disintegrated in one go.

However, Chronos immediately exerted his divinity, turning back time on Tartarus' wound and restored his arm. However, Chronos did not expect the spell to take so much energy since the damage healed was much greater than what he had predicted.

Looking at the shadow, the five gods watched as it condensed into the shape of a woman with demonic wings behind her.

Cracking open her mouth, the figure spoke a single word.

"Veril!"

From her body, thousands of motes split off her shadow before releasing an omnidirectional attack that erased everything it touched.
