Nanomancer Reborn - I've Become A Snow Girl?

Chapter 929 Jasmine

"Pft haha, what are you talking about? A demi goddess? Are you delusional?" The man laughed but Lyrica only shook her head.

"I’m not delusional. In this new age, anything can happen. You could have been unfortunate and die on the first day. Though I suppose they can be counted as fortunate considering the fact that they wouldn’t need to meet trash like you. You could have accidentally annoyed a high level monster and get killed by them during the second day. You could have died due to natural causes but out of all the things that you could have chosen to do, you decided to become trash. And by doing so, you have chosen the worst way to die." Lyrica sighed as golden runes appeared on her body.

Glancing down at the cuff, she scoffed and crushed it to dust.

"!!!" Seeing this, all of the exorcists in the room immediately activated their skills but their talismans were shredded to pieces.

"Eh?" Looking at his hand in confusion, the man that had asked Lyrica to enter his harem noticed that all of his fingers have been cut off. Turning to Lyrica, he saw a chained whip that had blades attached to each segment.

Flicking her wrist, the whip shrunk down into a sword.

Cracking her neck, Lyrica stomped down as the scenery immediately changed.

The walls were gone and an infinite stretch of land appeared in front of them, There was an array of flowers laid out and each of them shimmered under the sunlight.

Without saying anything, Lyrica stabbed her sword into the ground as all of the flowers erupted with fires that matched their petal colours.

Flaming vines shot out of the ground and stabbed into their bodies.

"Honestly, this death might be a little too good for you since your life essence is being put to good use." Lyrica sighed.

"But at least you won’t get to reincarnate."

Narrowing her eyes at the exorcists, the last thing they saw was a beautiful elf standing in the middle of a burning garden.

*KRSK!

In a single moment, their body shrivelled up as everything had been absorbed into the flowers.

Snapping her fingers, the throne world disappeared as there were only dried up corpses where they stood.

"AHHH!!!"

Crying out in shock, those that served the exorcists could only scramble back in fear as these invincible people that they served were killed in a single moment without fighting back.

Similar to Shiro, Lyrica had focused her attention on attack. There is no need to worry about their skills if you can end them before they do anything.

Glancing at the remaining people in the room, Lyrica wondered if she should kill them or not since she has been told that they also oppressed the weak. However, Shiro was probably better at this since she could see the colour of their souls. If they were evil, the colour would be darker.

"Seems like you’ve finished everything." Shiro chuckled as she entered, dragging the bodies of both guards while remaining in her tiny form.

Seeing a tiny Shiro dragging two armoured corpses, Lyrica’s seriousness almost broke apart and she wanted to laugh but calmed herself.

"Ahem. Mn, I have. You might want to take care of their souls. Also, the barrier around this place might be disappearing soon so we’ll need to deal with the ghosts." Lyrica replied as Shiro nodded her head.

Snapping her fingers, the lantern appeared once more as hooked chains shot out of the ground and into the air.

One by one, the souls of the exorcists appeared as the colour had long been dyed a murky blue.

"You know what to do." Shiro smiled while knocking on the lamp.

"Yes yes, torture them and make sure they don’t die. At least give me a tv since I need something actually enjoyable." The ancient terror sighed as Shiro thought about it for a moment and nodded.

"You know what? Sure. I’m not sure how well this will work but here you go."

Modifying the lantern a little, there was now a small tv the size of a thumb on the side of the panels. Since his soul was inside, this should be rather large for the ancient terror.

"Oh perfect. You should have a record of the old shows on the internet right? Give me all of them. I want to go through them at my own pace."

"Don’t push it too far. But sure. If you forget to torture the souls I’ll take your tv away." Shiro smirked as she dragged the souls into the lantern and looked at the others in the room.

Narrowing her eyes, she could see that most of their souls were in the process of becoming murky blue.

"Hou hou... well aren’t you lot becoming a bit accustomed to power. Some of you are even evil now. You’re not good enough to be in Asharia but you’re not evil enough for my lantern. You know what, why don’t I give you a chance, if you can survive out in this city without any help then you’re free to go. As for everything else in this room, I’m taking it away." Shiro smiled as Nanobots spread out to every corner and all of their luxury items, clothes and so on were swept away.

"Alright let’s go Lyrica, I’ve already marked the good natured people in the slum like area. The rest of them can fend for themselves." Shiro said while sitting on Lyrica’s shoulder.

"Mn."

Making their way down the corridor, Lyrica could see the slums in a bit of a panic since drones were escorting people to one side.

"The exorcists are dead, I’ll be responsible for leading you to safety. Those that have kept a good heart will be brought away as a reward while those that turned to cruelty must survive on their own." Lyrica said as she walked to the small crowd that had been gathered by the drones. Even in a giant underground shelter like this, the number of good nature people was simply abysmal.

Sighing softly, she shook her head when there was a commotion behind them.

"Wait, what do you mean by survive on our own? We had to do what we had to do to survive! This isn’t fair! They’re just leeches that lived off of us!" One of the survivors shouted out in anger but Lyrica only glared at him.

"Life was never fair to begin with. Plus, if you do evil things with good intent, your soul wouldn’t have turned dark. If anything blame yourself." Lyrica replied as she led the people to one of the entrances. Within this group, Arak was watching in surprise as they solved everything in an instant.

’Indeed. With power you can accomplish anything you want.’ He thought while looking at Lyrica’s back.

Stopping at the entrance, Lyrica turned to the group of survivors.

"Right then, I know you’re confused but don’t worry, we’re here to help. First take these masks so that you aren’t affected by the miasma." Lyrica smiled softly as she started to hand out the masks that Shiro had created just now.

"Lyrica, you lead the people back to the temporary base that we’ve set up for now. I’m detecting something big in this city and I don’t think it’s that friendly right now." Shiro said as she hopped off Lyrica’s shoulder and enlarged herself back to normal size.

"Are you going to see what it is?" Lyrica asked as Shiro grinned.

"Of course, I trust you to be able to bring everyone back but if you get into any danger, just pray and I’ll be able to lend you some strength." Shiro chuckled while pushing open the door.

"Mn, take care." Lyrica smiled and gave Shiro a wave.

Giving a wave back, Shiro flew towards the source of this signal. Since mana couldn’t be used, she was relying on her soul power and right now this signal was a giant mashed up cl.u.s.ter of souls that seemed to cry out in agony.

Even for Shiro, it gave her a feeling of creepiness which caused goosebumps to appear but when she arrived, all she saw was a little girl standing in the middle of the road. Her eyes were hollow and her skin was pale. Her lips were tightly sewed shut and she was a rather beautiful dress adorned with several jewels.

"I did not expect someone like you to be here. But can I ask that you don’t interfere with my work? I need to get souls for her highness." The young girl said as she glanced at Shiro in the air.

Her mouth didn’t move at all when she spoke as Shiro only chuckled.

"Depends. I presume that your queen is the ghost queen?" Shiro replied as the young girl nodded.

"Mn, I need to get souls so I’ll be happy if you didn’t kill all the ghosts around here. They’ve been consuming the souls of people in this city so if I can get a few of them my queen will be pleased." The girl bowed as Shiro nodded.

"Well that’s a dilemma. You see, I’m guessing your queen gets stronger with souls. So letting her get all of this is a little disadvantageous for me." Shiro smiled as the girl’s aura flared.

"Then I need to get rid of obstacles."
