Nanomancer Reborn - I've Become A Snow Girl?

Chapter 627 Home City

Chapter 627 Home City

Spending another day in the city, Shiro used the time to teach Helion and Chen Yu about mana control.

With Shiro’s teachings, they always returned looking like someone had just sucked their soul out.

Whenever someone called out to them, they would be surprised and stand up straight which caused a few people to wonder what had happened while the rest of the party understood their pain.

Shiro’s training tended to have that kind of effect on people.

From one day, it became two days. From two it became three.

With the explanation that it was easier to train Helion and Chen Yu, Shiro delayed her return to Japan day by day.

Seeing this the party eventually decided to sit down and have a talk with her.

"Shiro, are you nervous about meeting your parents?" Lyrica asked seriously while the party was having some dinner.

*COUGH COUGH COUGH!

"Hahaha, what do you mean?" Shiro forced a smile and glanced to the left.

{The great Shiro who causes gods to keep their eye on you is afraid of a little reunion.} Nimue laughed.

’Hush it you!’ Shiro pouted.

Looking back at the party, she could see the seriousness in their eyes.

"Arg! Fine, I’m nervous ok! I mean last time I saw them was when we had a small fight because I was focusing on magic. Plus, even though me and Kuromi are technically the same person, my experiences as Nytri and Shiro have changed me so I’m just nervous about how they might perceive it." Shiro confessed with a slight blush.

"I’m pretty sure that if they can accept your ball busting habits as Kuromi, they can accept your ass busting habits as Shiro." Chen Yu yawned as Shiro had the urge to throw a spoon at him.

"Shut it." Shiro gritted her teeth with a blush.

Seeing Shiro blush, the party couldn’t help but laugh while Lyrica took a moment to calm down.

"So you’re mainly nervous about your parent’s reaction then?" Lyrica asked.

"Mn. To be fair, a lot has happened and I’m not sure how I should explain it to them. After all, I got myself three kids and I became the queen of the spirits." Shiro replied while tapping on the table nervously.

"Well maybe you don’t have to tell them. After all, it’ll come as quite a big shock no?" Lyrica said as Shiro paused for a second before nodding.

"But before we go, maybe I should get some new clothes. After all, I’m always wearing black and it’s kind of gloomy no?" Shiro suggested while pointing at her current dress.

"It’s been a while since I’ve last made an outfit. Why don’t we spend some time designing something for you?" Aarim suggested with a smile.

Hearing this, the girls in the party had an excited spark in their eyes as they were able to dress up Shiro however they wanted. It was rare that she was at their ’mercy’ after all.

For the next two days, they spent it designing and outfits for Shiro so that she can meet her parents looking less gloomy with her black dress.

Eventually, they picked a soft pink turtleneck sweater, a black skirt and some black stockings.

Looking at herself in the mirror, Shiro nodded in satisfaction.

"This should be ok." She muttered.

"Now that we have your outfit, is it finally time to meet your parents? You have delayed this by a week after all." Lyrica asked as Shiro swallowed her saliva.

Nodding her head, they made their way to the teleport shrine.

Choosing Tokyo as their destination, the party proceeded to make their way north of Japan.

"Our house is located in the new city called Asakura. And if you’re wondering why it’s called that, it’s because it’s the land that my grandparents secured after the world changed." Shiro explained.

"You actually have a city named after your family?" Helion raised his eyebrows.

"Yeah. The city is pretty big and most of the visitors are just here to receive some training from my dad. He is one of the strongest people in the world after all. He’s kind of like us, the level doesn’t prove his actual capabilities. If I had to describe it, he is probably just a bit weaker than me in terms of fighting prowess." Shiro replied as she remembered some of the memories from her youth as Kuromi.

Making their way outside of Tokyo, Shiro had them wait for a moment.

Slamming her hand down, she created a private jet for everyone to sit in.

"Hop on, I’ll fly us to Asakura in a few moments." Shiro smiled.

Seeing the jet, Lisandra’s face started to pale.

"Erm... mum?" Lisandra called out hesitantly.

"Yes dear?"

"Can I just fly there with big sis? We can both fly."

"Nope. It’s faster with the jet." Shiro grinned.

While the party was oblivious to how fast her jet is, they made some preparations of their own just in case it was something crazy.

And they were correct since the moment Shiro made sure that everyone was ready, the jet blaster off into the sky as the party felt the force slam into their bodies. Aarim wanted to use her magic to dispel the pressure but Shiro only grinned and her seatbelt was enchanted with Celestial Path while also draining her mana.

Feeling her mana drain from her body, Aarim looked at Shiro with a pale face and nervous smile.

"Have mercy?"

"Sorry, I’m fresh out of mercy."

"Ah f*ck."

The journey to Asakura was a quick one but it felt like a century for the party. After all, Shiro made sure the experience was like a rocket was strapped to a rollercoaster.

"Shiro... Let’s just fly normally next time." Lyrica groaned as she was currently laying on the grass feeling like she was about to throw up at any moment.

"We’ll see. I’ll let you lot rest for a bit first." Shiro chuckled.

{To think you’ll go this far to buy some more time to prepare yourself.} Nimue raised her eyebrows.

Ignoring Nimue, Shiro took a few breaths to prepare herself.

Thinking about her parents, Shiro wondered how she should greet them.

Unfortunately, she wasn’t given much time as Silvia had used her spells to clear the party of their nausea.

"I’ve found her house." Chen Yu narrowed his eyes and showed a map on his phone.

After all, her family was quite famous so finding them wasn’t hard.

Seeing this, the party started to make their way towards the mansion as Shiro followed behind them.

###

The city of Asakura was quite a sight to behold. Large high rise buildings could be seen around every corner with large facilities everywhere. Large columns of enchantments could be seen erected around the corners of the city, providing a barrier of sorts which prevents the monsters from attacking.

Located near the centre of the city was a giant training hall of sorts. Popular videos of adventurers sparring could be seen on the big screen as the younger folk had faces of excitement whenever a large spell or flashy attack was used.

In addition to this, there were dungeon gates scattered throughout the city with their respective architecture which made it so that the city gave off a feeling that was both contemporary and ancient.

However, one couldn’t enter the city carelessly due to the barrier so they had to go through a security gate of sorts.

Walking up to the gate, the guards immediately stood up straight at the sight of Shiro.

"Miss Asakura." They greeted at the same time as Shiro nodded her head and waved her hand with a slight smile.

"Are my parents’ home or are they still at the front lines?" Shiro asked.

"Mr and Mrs Asakura have been back for a week now. If you wish, I can give them a notice of your return."

"No it’s fine. Can you register my friends here so that the barrier doesn’t fry them?"

Nodding their heads, the guards started the registration process.

"Miss Asakura, there have been a few attempts of people faking your ID and entering so we’ll need to do a few verification procedures if that’s fine with you. It’s the same for your friends as well." The guard asked with an apologetic smile.

"That’s fine. If I remember correctly, it should just be a scan of my mana and blood right?"

"Indeed."

Following the guards to a separate testing room, Shiro had her mana and blood verified without a problem as the party got their ID registered into the database for the barrier as well.

With everyone registered, they entered the city of Asakura and made their way to the large mansion in the distance where they would meet Shiro’s parents for the first time.
