"Little brat, just because you can use a little divine energy you think you can go against me?" Verron asked as it was clear that he was angered by her statement.

  "Pft, you won’t even have an anchor soon. Without an anchor, you can’t participate in the new age. Without your successor, you can’t even use them as a medium to manifest yourself. Madi becoming the queen has prevented you from being able to do anything that can harm me.

  "Plus, for you to talk to me for this long, you must have paid quite the price no? Even Nyx only talked to me for a little bit before leaving." Shiro grinned with a narrowed gaze.

  Staying silent for a moment, a dark aura slowly descended around her.

  "If you continue to push me little brat, I will end you without a second thought. You underestimate the tenacity of gods." Verron warned.

  "And you underestimate my connections. However, even if I have connections with the five primordial gods, I don’t need them to deal with someone like you. Just this will do. Can a god like you protect your source code?" Shiro laughed as circuits appeared on her arm and Error looked at the aura with greed and excitement.

  With Verron staying silent once more, Shiro dismissed Error before looking towards the monstrosity that was the merge of the guardian and her nanobots.

  As the fight progressed, Zack and Grangel took the lead as Grangel would push it back with his attacks while Zack summoned more monsters to hold him back so that it couldn’t slaughter the rest of the adventurers.

  "I’ll admit it, you have more backbone compared to the other’s I face and you have evidence to back up your claims. However, if you think that I, Verron, the demon god is afraid, then you are dead wrong. Which god didn’t face death head on to get to where they are today. Facing you will be the same." Verron warned as Shiro smiled.

  "Thanks for the praise I guess. My gramps is a reaper so you’re not wrong when you say you’re facing death. But since your body isn’t here, I won’t be able to get a useful skill out of you." Shiro licked her lips.

  How good would a skill from a god be?

  "But I suppose the new age is happening soon so I should save this charge of extraction for when a god appears. Hell, I still need to drain Aekari and kill him for good." Shiro laughed softly before summoning Silvanis.

  "Say Verron, if I eliminate your anchor and your guardian here, what will you do? You won’t be able to participate in the new age and once I become the garden’s ruler, I’ll be able to kill you with a snap of my finger. What will you do? I’m rather curious as to what a god will do when he’s backed into a corner." Shiro asked with a grin.

  "Are you really provoking a god right now!" Verron howled in anger.

  "Pft, I’ve provoked many gods in my life. You’re just another." Shiro laughed as she decided to make a move now. Both Zack and Grangel were being pushed back but their skills had helped them prevent any casualties from happening. If she let this continue, the two would definitely die.

  Ignoring Verron’s shouts, Shiro shot towards the guardian like a comet. Golden aura erupted out from her body as she was going to enhance her next attack with Divine Energy.

  Runes lit up on Silvanis as she activated the first, third and fourth ability of Silvanis.

  Double Stats, 100% true damage, 200% boosted elemental effectiveness, ignore all resistance towards the element and since the guardian didn’t have the fear resistance skill, he can’t fight back.

  Choosing nanobots as her element, Shiro focused her mind and activated boundary.

  Her body seemed to have been erased from the world as she reappeared a few hundred meters away from the guardian.

  Her blade was red hot as steam continuously emitted from the blade.

  The Nanobots that had lashed out towards the adventurers withered away instantly as they looked around in confusion.

  However, when they realised what had happened, they widened their eyes in shock.

  The guardian was completely erased without being able to scream. His body was shredded to pieces and the heat of her blade evaporated every trace of the guardian.

  Without delay, Shiro twirled her blade and held it in a reverse grip.

  Activating her skill, Force of Elements, a giant blade descended from the sky and stabbed towards the anchor belonging to a god.

  "Stop it you fool!" Verron shouted out as Shiro only smiled.

  "See you when the new age finishes."

  *BANG!!!!!

  Watching the ruin get destroyed in front of her, Shiro could see the anchor shattering to pieces as Verron’s aura and voice disappeared.

  [Gaia jumps in delight at your actions and wants to visit Verron to see his face.]

  "Pft, you actually had the system send this message to me." Shiro laughed since interacting with her had limitations and doing so was rather hard. For Gaia to send a message like this, it must mean that she enjoyed it quite a lot.

  "Don’t worry Gaia, when you manifest in Asharia, I’ll give you a specialised Mech. I know you like to fight so the mech should let you fight as much as you want."

  [Gaia is overjoyed.]

  [Gaia-]

  [Nyx is dragging Gaia away. Ignore Gaia please Shiro.]

  Rolling her eyes, Shiro couldn’t help but laugh at the thought of Nyx dragging an excited Gaia away from the little tea party they have.

  {You actually forced two gods to send messages to you despite the limitations.} Nimue forced a smile as the corner of her lips twitched.

  ’What can I say, I’m just that good.’ Shiro flipped her hair back with a smug smile.

  {*BLERG* Makes me want to puke.} Nimue rolled her eyes as Shiro shrugged.

  ’I’m only joking around. Regardless, with the Guardian dead and Verron’s anchor gone, I have realised a ’small problem’.’ Shiro coughed.

  {What problem?} Nimue looked towards her with confusion but Estrella paled and widened her eyes.

  ’Seems like Estrella knows.’ Shiro chuckled.

  {Shiro has destroyed Verron’s Anchor and pissed off Verron. But he isn’t the only demon god. There are 71 others. While a few might be on good terms, including the one with Madison, Shiro has essentially declared war against 60+ gods with Verron being ranked as one of the highest. They probably all have their own anchors and we were just lucky to find Verron’s. With the world being this big, finding the other anchors before the new age begins won’t be easy.}

  {. . .} Blinking her eyes as if her mind had just short circuited from trying to register the information, Nimue’s body started to quiver.

  {%£$%"%$%£!! You pissed off 60+ gods before the new age even started! Come here so I can kill you myself before they get to you!}

  Immediately evacuating the mana realm, Shiro double checked the ruin to make sure everything was cleaned up properly.

  Sighing in relief, she made her way back to Grangel, Zack and the rest of the adventurers.

  "Thank you for saving us Miss Asakura. Had it not been for your help, we would have most likely all died." Zack smiled as Shiro nodded her head.

  "Mn, this is the difference between tier 5 and 6. But if it wasn’t for the fact that he was being controlled by my nanobots, he would have been much more powerful and would have wiped everyone out in a few minutes since he does have a habit of playing with his food. Had it not been for that, I think I would have died when I met him before." Shiro replied as Zack agreed.

  "We’ll need to revise the knowledge we have on tier 6’s since the government believes the difference is only small so long as you have enough pseudo levels at level 500. But it seems like it is not all down to stats as the skills, techniques can bridge that gap as Miss Asakura had demonstrated." Zack said as the adventurers nodded their heads fiercely. They had never seen such a horrific monster that could shrug off their attacks like nothing even though they were some of the strongest people in the government.

  But what they were focused on was that this monster was killed in one go by Shiro Asakura, formerly known as Kuromi Asakura. She had completely obliterated the monster without a single trace left of him.

  "Since we’ve met, I’ll give you a quick warning about what’s to come. I’m sure you have now discovered hints about something called the new age and I’ll warn you now, it’s arriving in less than a month. Every Queen will make their move, tier 5 and 6 will arrive from different worlds, acting as guards for these Queens. After a while, gods will descend and wars will erupt out between them. Everywhere will become a danger zone so prepare yourself for the apocalypse." Shiro warned gravely as Grangel knew that he had to take this seriously. If someone like Shiro was saying this, it was true.

  Especially since she described it as an apocalypse.
