Furrowing her brows, Shiro watched the Queen disappear as Nan Tian landed next to her.

  "She seems rather troublesome, doesn’t she?" Nan Tian said as Shiro agreed.

  "If it was her actual body, I would have used error or more of my nanobots." Shiro sighed.

  "Doesn’t error affect their true body though? If you used it would have gotten her anyways no?" Nimue asked curiously as she returned all of the water back to the atmosphere around them.

  "It does. However, Aisha’s clone was…… how do I put it. Independent?" Shiro frowned since her analysis skill told her that the Aisha she had faced was the ’real’ one but at the same time, Shiro knew it was a fake since the soul wasn’t there.

  "Maybe that’s just her skill. Her status as the Queen of Trickery might allow her to make clones that can take independent action which makes them seem real. Not to mention, I was not able to track her back to her real body at all." Shiro sighed.

  "Mn, and from what I know, whenever a Queen takes over a city, their powers are heavily cut down and it’ll take a while before they can get it back from donations of the people. Since the news of this city being taken over was rather recent, I can imagine that Aisha was rather weak. Do you think she revealed herself early because she knew she had been exposed? I can’t imagine why a Queen of Trickery would want to expose herself so easily." Nimue frowned.

  "Do you think it’s because she wanted to get some information on Shiro? Since there was no danger to her real body, having a short exchange would actually be highly beneficial for her." Nan tian suggested as Shiro nodded her head.

  "The possibility of that being the case is rather high. We’ll need to be careful of her since ingesting something she gives you made it so that she could take over the controls of your body. If this was her real body, there could be a chance that she can take over your body with ease should you ingest something. If that is the case, even if I wanted to disembowel myself and heal to get rid of the parasite, I wouldn’t be able to." Shiro frowned as she couldn’t help but worry about their next exchange.

  "Anyways, setting that aside, let’s check up on the city first. With her skills, I doubt the people here are unaffected." Nan Tian said as Shiro agreed. During the fight, it seemed like the civilians paid them no attention as if they couldn’t see what was going on but Shiro knew that there were quite a few casualties that were pulling in during their fight.

  Glancing up at the sky, Shiro could sense that the anchor had lost its l.u.s.tre and was nothing but a fancy crystal right now.

  Consuming it with her nanobots, Shiro started to check up on the people of Manila with Nan Tian.

  Even when they touched one on the shoulder they ignored them as Shiro frowned.

  Grabbing a young man, she closed her eyes and scanned his entire body.

  {What the hell……} Nimue muttered as Shiro’s information was transmitted to the mana realm.

  They could see a parasite of sorts controlling their body as everything was now autonomous.

  Seeing this, Shiro understood why they didn’t react. After all, they weren’t ’programmed’ to react to this. If Aisha was around, she could probably take control of them and converse like normal but now that she was gone, they were essentially human robots. Unable to think for themselves.

  The worst part was that they weren’t dead either. If Shiro wanted to save them, she’d need to get rid of the parasites in their body. But doing that with the entire city was going to take some time.

  Furrowing her brows, Shiro started to formulate a plan in her mind using all of her skills. With her True Spirit Nature, she is able to control souls so even if she destroyed their head, she could keep them alive so long as she heals their body and places their soul back in.

  However, doing so was rather difficult considering the population in this place and that her form only had a limit of one minute. If she wasn’t done by the minute, the souls would most likely scatter and she would have just killed an entire city.

  But leaving them alone wasn’t something that Shiro was too keen on either since they were living like programmed robots.

  {Mommy what if you let me help.} Attie called out as Shiro raised her eyebrow.

  ’What do you mean darling?’ Shiro asked curiously.

  {My fire can heal them. Maybe if you take the worm thing out I can heal them.} Attie suggested as Shiro smiled softly and patted his head.

  ’Don’t worry mommy can heal them too. It’s just a problem of time. There’s too many people and managing them all in a single minute was going to be hard.’ Shiro sighed.

  However, just as she said this, an idea appeared in Shiro’s mind as she face palmed.

  ’How did I not think of this.’ She sighed.

  ’It’s fine now, mommy has an idea to help everyone here.’ Shiro smiled and let Attie down.

  Focusing her mind back on reality, Shiro cracked her neck before glancing at Nan Tian.

  "I’ve got an idea on helping everyone here so just give me a moment." She smiled.

  "Take as much time as you need. I have the teleport shrine for Shanghai anyways so travelling there won’t take long." Nan Tian smiled as Shiro nodded her head.

  Flying into the sky, Shiro activated her Divine Raiment and chose nanobots as her base.

  Spreading out her hands, a tier 6 magic circle started to form itself as it slowly expanded to encase the entire city.

  Closing her eyes, the temperature seemed to drop as grey snowflakes fell down onto the city.

  However, despite looking like snowflakes, they were in fact nanobots that were being controlled by Shiro.

  Similar to how requiem of the dead targeted specific people, Shiro had her nanobots track down any sign of ’soul’ within the city and attach themselves onto them. Since they were all acting autonomous right now, attaching themselves was rather simple since they didn’t respond.

  Once the nanobots attached onto them, Shiro clasped her hand together as the nanobots split apart into tiny needles and entered their body.

  With millions of body scans entering her mind, Shiro had the nanobots target the anomaly within the body, the parasite, and consume it before self-destructing in a non-harmful manner towards the current host.

  But just as the nanobots targeted the parasites, they started to fight back as Shiro furrowed her brows since the parasites had no care about how much damage they were doing.

  Flicking her wrist, the entire magic circle that encompassed the city rotated anticlockwise as the initial blue hue shifted to a dark red.

  Erupting out with flames, the nanobots consumed the parasites as the flames healed up all of the damage that the host had sustained.

  Once that was done, they each fell unconscious one after another from the level of exhaustion on their body as very few managed to stay awake. Glancing up at the giant magic circle encompassing their city, they couldn’t help but find it to look so beautiful as a single girl was controlling everything in the centre.

  During the time that they were being controlled, they still remembered everything and knew that it was this girl who had saved them. For those that were still conscious, they made sure to memorise her appearance before blacking out.

  While that was happening, Shiro was focused on treating everyone as her mana was draining fast. Even with her large reservoir, pulling off a spell that affected millions of people was still strenuous for her.

  Once she was done, the magic circle slowly disappeared as sweat rolled down her face.

  Flickering next to her, Nan Tian handed her a towel as she smiled.

  "Thanks." She said while wiping the sweat away.

  "Mn, you’ve worked hard. I haven’t detected any anomalies from the people so it seems like it should be over." Nan Tian said while glancing down.

  "Mn, I’ve gotten rid of the parasites. Let’s not waste any time. We still have the problem in Shanghai." Shiro sighed as Nan Tian nodded his head.

  "Do you want me to carry you down? You seem rather exhausted." He joked as Shiro rolled her eyes and hit him with the towel.

  "Ask that question once I’m disabled or can’t move. Knowing my luck, that might happen in the next fight." Shiro rolled her eyes as they made their way to the teleport shrine.
