Sitting in the room, Shiro summoned the Demi God core and placed it in her hand while glancing over at Lisandra who was already sitting with her legs crossed.

  Seeing that she had already got herself into the mindset, Shiro smiled as this was a good sign.

  ’If she can focus entirely on her element, reaching tier 6 should be a piece of cake for her. Nan Tian took a while to fully solidify his ascension into tier 6 since he had no prior information and all he had to rely on was himself.

  However, for Lisandra that was different because she had received information thanks to her skill.

  ’Since Lisandra is doing well, I wonder how I can use this. It said that it will help my Divine Energy generation, my divinity and assist me to reach tier 6. Do I just shove mana into this?’ Shiro wondered.

  ’Though considering the fact that it’s the core of a Demi God, divine energy might be better.’


  Closing her eyes, golden energy flowed from her arm to the orb as golden runes lit up on the core.

  Slowly, the core emitted a faint glow that was similar to her golden aura.

  As the two sat in silence, as a natural barrier seemed to form in the room as golden runes lit up on the walls.

  A faint tether stretched from the Demi God core to both Shiro and Lisandra as the same golden energy slowly filled Lisandra’s body.

  Without knowing it, Lisandra’s wings unfurled on her back.

  A swirl of mana started to gather around the two as their aura was being strengthened with every passing moment.

  For Shiro, she had thought that this was going to be easy since she reached tier 6 before but there was a slight problem. This time, her nanobots became an attunement so she needed to understand the properties of her nanobots better.

  Finding herself isolated with her nanotech island that should be in her mana realm, Shiro raised her eyebrows as this was different to what she had remembered.

  ’A little strange……’ She mused to herself and approached the island.

  As she walked closer, she realised that the distance was not changing. Suddenly, a question appeared in her mind.

  [What are nanobots?]

  Raising her eyebrow, Shiro answered how she answered in her past life.

  ’Nanobots are microscopic beings that can combine together to simulate the texture, feel and abilities of an item.’


  [Wrong. Nanobots are the act of defiance of man towards god. They are an attempt to copy what they believe as ’omnipotent’. Nanobots are a cheap copy of the system that can store skills and gift them to people.]

  Hearing this in her mind, Shiro was taken aback as there shouldn’t be a reply after the initial question.

  ’Who are you?’ Shiro asked with a frown as a figure appeared in front of her. Recognising the figure Shiro smiled.

  ’So it’s Chaos of all people that have decided to come visit me. How can I help you?’ Shiro asked with a chuckle.

  [I’m here to help you correct your thinking. After all the things that you have done in this life, your Nanobots are no longer just machines. They’re sentient beings like ants that work in a colony. If you want to reach tier 6, you need a new understanding of your own gift and the powers that come with it.] Chaos smiled as Shiro furrowed her brows.

  ’I see…… how come you’re here then? I thought there were special restrictions especially for you.’ Shiro asked.

  [There are. But I’m here because you have a Demi God’s core, Error who has absorbed the beasts and divinity within you. People say that they might receive a flash of inspiration when they work. I’m just taking advantage of that and speaking to you using this ’inspiration’. Last time I could only say a few lines but now we have time to spare. However, the moment I diverge too far from the topic of inspiration, I won’t be able to talk to you.] Chaos smiled as Shiro nodded her head.

  Thinking about it for a moment, Shiro decided to hide a question within the question so that it didn’t stray too far from the topic.

  ’I see…… So if the nanobots have changed, it would explain how I was able to reincarnate with them despite my body not being edited to house them. Does this link to why they’re different to the ones in the past?’ Shiro asked as Chaos smiled.

  [Indeed. They are embedded with the power of Chaos so there was already some divinity within you. How else would you be able to use the nanobots without changing your body? Originally the nanobots worked on equivalent exchange. By using the nanobots, you are sacrificing your body along with your life span. The more you used it, the shorter your life became. After they were embedded with the power of Chaos as well as some small parts of the system, they have evolved beyond what they used to be.] Chaos explained as Shiro nodded her head.

  As she communicated with Chaos, Shiro didn’t forget to attempt to reach tier 6 with her new understanding.

  Every question that Chaos replied would bring her slightly closer to the island in the distance.

  ###

  While Shiro and Lisandra were attempting to reach tier 6, Nan Tian was making good progress in moving the cities into Asharia. With all the items that Shiro had provided such as scanners and replicators, shifting the city of Asakura to Asharia was an easy task. Plus, the people in the city were more than happy since it was the Asakura family that protected them all this time. If the lord, Koji Asakura, said that they needed to leave since it was unsafe, they would follow his orders since he said it to protect them.

  Looking at the files that he needed to take care of, Nan Tian sighed heavily.

  ’Why do I feel like I’ve become an office worker?’ He mused to himself.

  Hearing the door open, he glanced behind him and saw Lyrica entering.

  "Morning, I didn’t expect you to be here." He smiled as she shrugged.

  "I’m just here to relax for a bit. Mum’s become more strict with training. In some ways she reminds me of Shiro." Lyrica sighed as Nan Tian chuckled.

  "Well they were best friends from way back in Aria. They’ve spent years together so it’s to be expected that their training styles would be similar." Nan Tian replied.

  "Yeah. It makes you wonder does it? I didn’t think reincarnation was likely to be real. But the fact that both my mum and Shiro knew each other proves this." Lyrica smiled.

  "Kind of makes you think about who we were before doesn’t it?"

  "Indeed." Nan Tian nodded his head.

  "How’s Madison? Any sign of her coming out of her crystal?"

  "Nothing yet. I swear, at this rate she’s going to sleep until the new age arrives." Lyrica shrugged.

  Suddenly, a notification appeared on the screens as several drones locked onto a single woman strolling through the streets.

  Reading the notification, Nan Tian could see that she had been planting nodes to scan the city.

  "Seems like a rat has appeared in the city. Should I deal with it or should you?" Nan Tian asked with a smile.

  "I can. It’ll give me more excuse to avoid training." Lyrica grinned as she left the command centre.

  ###

  ’This city is crazy. If we can get our hands on this technology we’ll undefeatable.’ The woman thought to herself with a smile as she planted another node when no one was looking.

  Seeing the elves and spirits in this city, she couldn’t help but wonder about the ruler of this place.

  She figured that the ruler must have a plan of sorts for her to make such a big city.

  ’Maybe she’s going to harvest them for their mana.’ She wondered.

  Just as she was about to send a message back to her boss, she felt a tap on the shoulder from behind.

  "Excuse me, are you lost?" Lyrica asked with a small smile.

  "Ah no I’m fine." The woman replied.

  "Are you sure? Since with the way you’re walking, it seems like you’re going on a patrol around the city." Lyrica narrowed her eyes as the woman knew that she was busted.

  Without hesitation, she summoned a short sword and stabbed towards her head while several daggers appeared around Lyrica, blocking her exit.

  "So quick on the violence." Lyrica shook as she snapped her finger.

  Suddenly, a barrier appeared around her as the daggers and short sword that came into contact disappeared.

  "Thanks for the weapons. Let me give them back to you." Lyrica narrowed her eyes.

  Pausing in shock, the woman watched as her daggers reappeared by this time they were under Lyrica’s control.

  ’I need to run!’ She thought in shock.

  Crouching down slightly, she jumped back and ripped apart a teleport talisman to help her get out of the city.

  Seeing this, Lyrica only smirked since she’s already left a mark on her.

  "Go end her." She said as the short sword launched into the sky.

  ###

  Sighing in relief, the woman was about to leave when she felt a cold chill down her spine.

  Before she could react, a familiar short sword pierced her through before erupting out with hundreds of blades, cutting up her body and killing her in an instant.
