Nanomancer Reborn - I've Become A Snow Girl?

Chapter 710 Tricia

Chapter 710 Tricia

Giving Shiro some medicine along with some food, the three of them sat down while Shiro was chewing on some bread.

"Right then, do you want to tell me what you received from your divinity?" Quella asked curiously as Shiro nodded her head.

She didn’t mind telling them since they were going to be helping her in terms of facing against the ancient terror.

"The divinity I received can be explained in three simple terms." Shiro smiled and raised three fingers.

"First, I can fly without limitations and prevent others from flying or at least hinder them if they’re too strong.

"Second, I can control wind whether that be using it as a shield or weapon. Naturally, this includes the air tunnels.

"Third, I can impose two kinds of restrictions. Restriction of Ranged Weapons and Restriction of Magic. Meaning, magic from divinities will have no effect on me and people can’t shoot arrows at me. Hell, they can’t even throw swords at me since it counts as ranged." Shiro grinned.

"Wait hold on. So you’re telling me you can stop others from attacking you from range? And magic doesn’t work on you?" Quella asked with disbelief.

"That’s the gist of it." Shiro shrugged.

"And trust me, these two restrictions are a pain to deal with. I had to f*cking kill golems with the same power." She clicked her tongue remembering the annoying trial she had to go through before reaching the top.

Staying silent, Quella didn’t know how to respond as the previous heroes didn’t have powers as crazy as she did. She had a nullification to all ranged attacks along with magic. While it may not last forever, it was still crazy for a mortal to obtain this kind of power.

"It seems like your trials have been rather difficult." Quella’s sister chuckled as Shiro nodded her head.

"Oh right, I don’t know your name even though you gave me medicine and food."

"My name is Tricia, the 15th sister." Tricia smiled.

"Tricia is it? Got it. Out of curiosity, what number is Quella?" Shiro asked.

"Quella is the 38th sister. She’s one of the younger ones out of all of us." Tricia replied while taking a sip of tea.

"Hence why she can be rather reactive with comments despite trying to act calm and composed most of the time."

"Oi, what do you mean act. I am calm and composed ok?" Quella pouted a little as Tricia only shrugged.

"So do you already know me or should I introduce myself?" Shiro asked while grabbing another piece of bread.

"I’ve heard quite a bit from my sister so I know who you are fufu. You are rather... explosive when dealing with people who go against you." Tricia giggled.

"Oh of course. They wanted to kill a delicate girl like me so it’s their fault to begin with." Shiro shrugged.

"I don’t think a delicate girl can cut a man in half before he can react." Quella furrowed her brows.

"I have a good sword. It’d be an insult to the craftswoman who made this if I didn’t cut him in half." Shiro grinned.

"That’s... True. Nivlim is the first of its kind after all." Quella sighed.

"Oh? I’m intrigued. You haven’t told me about this story yet sister." Tricia asked.

"Well basically this girl managed to find a good craftswoman who was intrigued by her fighting style and crafted her a sentient blade. When she received the blade, the materials used to craft it resonated with her blessed weapons at the time and the two merged together." Quella explained quickly.

"Ah, is this the same woman who had rumoured to be the creator of ’attachments’? An accessory that one could put on a compatible weapon so that its might is increased. I have heard some rumours about a withered finger attachment that can melt armour down quickly." Tricia asked as both Quella and Shiro nodded her head.

"Yup. Her name is Maria and she is indeed quite spectacular." Shiro smiled.

However, while Maria was spectacular, she couldn’t compare to Helion in her mind. After all, her blacksmithing friend had created her Goddess Raiment which was the peak of red grade armour hence why it was tagged with Red+ rather than the normal Red grade that she would see occasionally.

Plus, Helion was also the one who helped her deal with Akram.

"So Shiro, is there anything that you’re planning after this? Are you going to deal with the other trials?" Quella asked.

"Hmm... Most likely. I want to deal with all of the Primordial trials before I get to dealing with the Ancient Terror. After all, with how you’ve described him, I’ll need to get as much power as I can. And while we’re on the topic, has there been any news on him yet?" Shiro replied before asking about the current state of things.

"So far, nothing too... obvious shall we say? There has been an increase of famine near the outer edges of each section and I think the corruption saplings are the root cause. We still don’t know the culprit for spreading this as the Ancient Terror is still focused on recovering and regaining his previous power. We’ll need to stop the spread of the saplings." Quella sighed.

"Is there a way to deal with the pool of corruption then? Last time I tried to approach one I’m pretty sure I would have died should I have stepped any closer." Shiro shrugged.

"There is... but that’s more on our side rather than yours. Plus, with your peculiar situation, I don’t think it’s wise for you to approach the pools of corruption. After all, you are a spirit and pools of corruption are highly toxic to you. Just breathing it in would harm you. Though I’d say you should be relatively safe after you obtain your third divinity? Can you confirm this sis?" Quella turned to Tricia who nodded her head.

"For a spirit like Shiro, she would indeed be relatively safe when she obtains her third divinity. However, that does not mean you can stand next to the lake since you’ll still be killed. If you wish to stand next to the lake, I’d say the 5th divinity should be the safe guess." Tricia replied as Shiro nodded her head.

"Makes sense. Anything I can do to help while trying to get the divinities then?" She asked.

"There is one that I can think of." Tricia smiled.

"Oh? Do tell." Shiro raised her eyebrow.

"You could potentially help us locate the culprit of these seed plantings since they’re helping the Ancient Terror by spreading the corruption. If you can deal with the culprit, we can deal with the aftermath. Naturally, we can’t expect you to turn all your attention to the culprit since he’s only part of the problem. If you obtain all the divinities and suppress the Ancient Terror, we can take our time to deal with the culprit. We’ll tell you whether or not his next expected target for planting the seed is near or not and if it near, you could potentially deal with it." Tricia explained.

"Hmm... sure. I don’t mind." Shiro nodded her head.

"So which divinity are you going for next? You have Nyx, Kronos, Tartarus and Gaia." Quella asked with interest.

"Hmm... Tartarus is a bit annoying since it’s more obstacle based. Kronos and Nyx would be asking for death right now. I’ll probably go for Gaia since my sword helps me ignore armour while this naughty child will devour them." Shiro smiled and urged Error to appear.

Watching the circuits appear on her hand, she gave him a small pat.

Seeing the sentient circuits that had suddenly appeared, Tricia raised her eyebrow in interest.

"Oh my. What is this?" She asked.

"Hmm... It’s something that awakened within me I suppose. It’s a stronger version of the corruption but not as... evil? I suppose." Shiro shrugged while playing around with Error.

"Pardon?" Tricia blinked for a moment.

"You heard her right. When she was affected by a corruption sapling, I watched the red thing consume it in retaliation." Quella confirmed.

"Even my butterflies were consumed. I couldn’t summon as many as I usually could and I haven’t fixed that problem yet." She sighed.

Hearing her sister’s confirmation, Tricia only furrowed her brows.

While this could be counted as good news, it could also be bad. The emergence of something stronger than the corruption could be worrying.
