Arriving at the surface, Shiro looked around with a sigh.

  The desert had been completely destroyed and the surface was now charred black with some reflections of what seemed to be glass.

  Walking through the charred landscape, Shiro couldn’t see any beasts walking around anymore. There was just a single lump of flesh that writhed in the distance as Shiro knew who it belonged to.

  ’Even Nyx was called out to contain the blast and yet this b*stard actually survived all of that.’ Shiro thought with a little less enthusiasm as she had at the start.

  Walking closer to the lump, she could see that it was trying its best to regenerate but the damage it sustained was simply too much.

  While it did survive, it was no different from being dead.

  "What…… did…… you…… do?" He asked slowly as his body shook seeing Shiro approached with such a calm face despite causing the mass destruction of his kind.

  "Who knows?" Shiro shrugged while looking at the boss who lost his previously powerful aura. His eyes were melted and only a single eyeball was barely functioning.

  Tilting her head back, she could see the shattered ceiling of the dungeon mending itself slowly.

  Shaking her head, she looked at the boss.

  "Honestly, I’m in a bit of a bad mood right now so I’ll end it quickly. I would normally play with you a bit so that you have a good fight before you die but I’m currently reflecting on my actions. Would you mind just sticking your neck out a bit so that I can kill you in one go?" Shiro asked as she summoned Silvanis.

  Looking at her eyes that looked at him as though he was nothing but an ant, the boss gritted his teeth.

  He was an apex predator. One that had copied and killed thousands of adventurers that had approached. His kind was so powerful that nothing below tier 6 could harm them.

  And yet, a single woman was now asking him to stick his neck out and die for her?

  "Unbelievable……" He muttered in anger as Shiro nodded her head.

  "I know, I get your feelings. I just realised that I can never go all out to my heart’s content since if I do, I’ll destroy the world that has everything I hold dear in it." Shiro sighed.

  Taking a single step forward, her hair fluttered for a moment as she instantly disappeared.

  Widening his eyes, the boss couldn’t move at all as a web of slashes ripped his body apart. Looking at the dark cold glow of her eyes that didn’t hold any murderous intent, the boss felt insulted.

  ’She didn’t even want to kill me? Where’s your murderous intent? Am I nothing in your eyes?’ It howled out in his mind with anger.

  Tendrils of flesh shot out of his wounds and forcefully stitched himself back together as his aura exploded forth.

  Whipping towards her with a bone whip, the space around Shiro was halted as she noticed that her body couldn’t move.

  "Stop struggling would you? I’m seriously not in the mood." Shiro sighed.

  *BANG!!!!

  Shattering his whip apart, nanobots swarmed around her like a serpent.

  Suddenly, thousands of blades formed around the boss and pierced his body like it was nothing.

  Cracking open a grin, the boss was overjoyed since this meant that it could copy everything.

  But the moment it did, blood erupted out of his body as he widened his eyes with shock.

  "Fool. The nanobots you copied are berserk ones that are barely working thanks to divine energy. For someone without that, it’s asking for death. Your body will now be food for them." Shiro said without even glancing back.

  "Why won’t you take me seriously!? I am the strongest being, one that can transcend the system. I can copy and control! Fight me seriously!" The boss shouted out as his life force was being consumed at a rapid rate.

  His body swelled as horrific appendages forced his skin apart as he became a mangled mass of flesh that pierced towards her while the nanobots ate away at him.

  "Error dear, this thing is similar to you in some regard. I know you’ve been eager so I’m giving you permission. Do whatever you want." Shiro said as the boss no longer interested her. After all, after reaching level 500, killing things no longer mattered as much. All that you need is knowledge and the will.

  [Shiro LVL 500 Divine Sylph Nanomancer]

  Suddenly, a layer of darkness wrapped around the entirety of her right arm as blood red circuits travelled up to her shoulders before stopping. Previously, Shiro had to fight against Error for it not to corrupt her past the shoulder but there was no need to fight against it since Shiro could tell that Error bore no hostility against her.

  Swiping out with her hand, the same darkness that wrapped around her arm expanded across the entire desert in an instant as divine energy was supplied to Error.

  Looking at the floor which now resembled a giant circuit board, the boss had no intention to stop his attack.

  However, he failed to notice the jaws that were right behind him.

  *CRUNCH!

  Listening to the sound of the boss’s body being ripped apart, Shiro sighed.

  "Error, don’t eat with your mouth open."

  Shaking her head, she walked away from the area as the darkness retracted back into her arm and the charred desert returned to normal.

  Any signs of the boss being here previously had been completely erased as Shiro glanced at the final notification that had appeared.

  [The promised reward for completing the void bomb shall now be granted. Demi God’s Core is added to your inventory. Demi God’s core can be used to assist tier 6 legends to reach tier 7 Demi God and attain their first divinity. As you are already a Demi God, this core will enhance your Divine Energy generation and your divinity. It will also assist you in reaching tier 6.]

  Glancing over the notification, she decided that she’ll reach tier 6 once she has finished sorting everything out. Reaching tier 6 would take a while so leaving things undone would be neglectful of her.

  Walking back towards the underground shelter, she could see Bonne sitting down at the ruined landscape.

  "You know, while this was the result that I expected to some degree, it’s still a bitter pill to swallow." He said without looking back.

  "The beasts were dangerous and letting them out would bring harm to the world. Even so, I still wanted to save what little is left of my world. But looking at the land now, I don’t even think that’s possible." He chuckled while looking at the dungeon floor.

  "Regardless, thanks for killing the beasts that killed everyone." He glanced back with a sad smile.

  "You don’t have to be stuck in this place." Shiro said after a short pause.

  "There is a whole world out there that you can explore. Well…… it’ll become dangerous but with your time stop ability it shouldn’t be a problem for you." She continued as he thought about it.

  "Maybe, are you perhaps asking me to come with you and help you out?" Bonne asked.

  "Not quite. I’m being honest when I say you can explore the world since I won’t force you to do anything you don’t want. If anything, I should say sorry to you. If I was in your situation and there were beasts who killed everyone, I still wouldn’t want the world they used to reside in to be destroyed as collateral damage. If I had handled things better, the last remnants of your world wouldn’t be charred like this." Shiro looked down at the ash and glass beneath her feet.

  "It’s fine I guess. Thank you for killing them though. I suppose I’ll take you up on the offer of exploring the world. I’ve survived with those beasts so the rest of the world shouldn’t be that bad right? The system has already given me a new option seeing that the beasts are gone and the dungeon is destroyed. I’ll see you around I guess." Bonne smiled as Shiro nodded her head.

  Watching him go through the portal, Shiro sighed.

  ’If this was my village where my parents in Aria lived, would I still use such a powerful weapon even if the monster was so powerful?’ Shiro asked herself but the only answer she had in mind was yes.

  Laughing at herself, Shiro shook her head.

  ’Say Nimue, who do you think about this? If you had to sacrifice the world to destroy an enemy that could pose a real threat to the safety of everyone, would you? I think I would. But wouldn’t that make me the same as the enemy that would destroy the world?’ Shiro asked as Nimue shrugged.

  {I dunno since I don’t have that kind of power. But you’re overthinking things. It’s fine to keep going as you are and Nyx didn’t blame you either. Just think about the collateral a little more if you can and reduce the damage when possible. Plus, if you’re that concerned, why don’t you become the creation goddess. You are Shiro after all, it should be possible. Just give the question a ’Shiro like answer’ that only you can give.} Nimue grinned.

  Chuckling softly, Shiro felt a little better after talking to Nimue.

  ’I can certainly try. Nanobots are just the scientists’ attempts at playing the biblical god after all.’ Shiro shrugged with a smile.
