Nanomancer Reborn - I've Become A Snow Girl?-Novel

Chapter 1075 Madison And Makron

With Misu leaving the office, Shiro was left with just Nan Tian by her side.

"Do you want me to compile everything into a file and send it to Yin?" Nan Tian offered.

"Yes please, that would be great. By the way, how do you think Thiria will react? Now that I have destroyed all of her barriers protecting her zones, she is definitely going to be pissed. Also, what about her subordinate? If I remember correctly, he was the one that had kidnapped you when you were younger and wanted to harm me so that you would fall." Shiro asked since she was still concerned about her subordinates.

It’s easy to just kill them but a lack of information is deadly.

"I’m not sure. But I doubt it is possible for them to do anything to you. In terms of reactions, knowing how she is, I’d say she’ll probably launch a retaliation soon so you might want to keep an eye out for that." Nan Tian said as he pulled out a laptop and started to type.

"True." Shiro nodded while spinning on her chair. Closing her eyes, she wondered about her plan in the next few days.

Since there was now only two days left not including today, she had to make sure Thiria is defeated by tomorrow and take the zones for herself. Not only that, she also needed to protect them from people.

Right now, out of the 15 zones, Thiria had taken over 8 of them, which is just over half of the total amount. She has taken three, Khionah took one and so did Syradil. As for the rest of the zones, they’re being fought over by other Queens.

’Hmm... to win the event, I just need to make sure I steal most of Thiria’s points by conquering her zone. The most points earned would be the ones that she took at the beginning. So... If I take two of the large zones that she had conquered and two small zones, I should have enough points to win. Nan Tian, Attie, Estrella and Keiko can take the zones with me acting as defence against anyone else. However, holding off against the attacks of multiple Queens would be difficult if I have to defend against it alone.’

While Shiro did have overwhelming power in a one on one, it’ll be hard to deal with all of their skills in a one against many. An example would be the Queen of Trickery. If she was ignored, she could become a serious problem during a match. And yet, if she focused too much on her, the others would be able to perform to their full power.

She needed something that could protect all of the zones while not giving the enemy Queen a chance to retaliate.

The Argus Satellite Network is good since it’ll be able to wipe their army from the face of the Earth. However, if she wants to make sure it’s powerful enough, she’ll have to give up maintaining the barrier around Earth.

’I can try to link up all of the zones and transform them to flying cities armed with mechs and turrets. But the power consumption would be too much even if I did create anchors. Misu is helping me out now but I still need Madison if I want to make something remotely usable for several flying cities.’

Thinking back to Madison, Shiro couldn’t help but wonder how she was doing. She had left the city in order to pursue more strength after receiving an offer to enter the Demon Realm.

"I wonder how Madi is doing." Shiro muttered.

"I’m sure she’s doing just fine. Even if it’s the Demon Realm, as a Demon Queen, it shouldn’t be hard. Plus, she is talented so she’ll slaughter everything in her way." Nan Tian chuckled as Shiro agreed.

"Stinking old man! Stop watching and help me! I’ll die! I’ll die before I go back to everyone else! I shouldn’t have come here god damn it!" Madison shouted out in rage as her armour was completely tattered. Behind her was a ’creature’ that dwarfed her completely and destroyed anything it touched.

[Demonic Decay Beast LVL 800]

"Fufu, did you not want strength? This old man is helping his descendants out and yet no sign of gratitude. How cruel. But if there’s one thing I like, it’s that your endurance to damage is superb. If not, you would have died by now. Hahahaha!" An old man laughed as he was currently flying above her while she was being chased.

The old man had a long black beard, tattered robes with plated armour underneath and a pair of red eyes that pierced the darkness around him.

[Makron LVL 1000 Demon God (Divinity Rank 3)]

He had a hearty grin on his face as one of the Decay Beast’s arms reached towards him.

Without saying anything, blue flames erupted from his body and charred the arm to ash.

"If you don’t face him, you will never get stronger." Makron smirked as Madison felt the urge to punch the old man.

"I’m only LEVEL 600! You want me to try to kill something more than 200 levels above me?!" Madison shouted back as she felt danger behind her.

Stomping down, she kicked up a slab of stone and threw it behind her, blocking one of the beast’s strikes.

"Yes. We demons are an exception to this world. We are able to have a king while others can only have Queens. Naturally, this means we know how to make an Emperor as well as an Empress. As you are the current Demon Queen, I will make you the Demon Empress. All Empresses can kill those above their level. Your friend, Shiro, she has enough strength to slay this beast if she puts everything on the line. To stand by her side and be of use to her, you need to do the same." Makron said as Madison felt a little inspired. However, this inspiration immediately disappeared after hearing his next line.

"Or you can be disintegrated to dust. Which I hope not." Makron laughed as Madison felt a vein burst from her anger.

"STUPID OLD MAN!"

In her moment of distraction, the beast managed to catch up as she immediately gritted her teeth and turned around.

Summoning a set of illusionary armour around her body, she slammed her shoulder against the beast’s incoming arm.

*BANG!!!!!!

Stopping him in his tracks, Madison flinched a little as she could feel her mana being corroded by the decay.

Watching silently, Makron had his hand on his sword, ready to interfere if things go south. Despite what he had just said, he will not allow his beloved granddaughter to get killed by a mere beast. If she dies, it’ll be after he departs from the world of the living.

Raising its head, the beast unhinged his jaw and tentacles exploded out towards Madison.

"There is only one person who I give permission for touching me and that is not you!" Madison shouted out as she jumped back and slammed her hand down.

Shattering the ground around her, she caused the beast to stumble as his attack missed.

Taking this opportunity, she summoned her avatar and reached towards the sky.

*BOOM!!!

The sound of lightning rang out as the skies parted to reveal an axe formed of densely packed mana.

Grabbing it with both her hands, she pinned the beast under her foot and cleaved down with the axe.

However, the moment the axe touched the beast, it shattered to pieces.

Since her weapon that Helion had made was broken a while ago, she had to form everything using mana but clearly, against this beast, it wasn’t effective.

’If mana doesn’t work then I’ll use my body. Demonic beings are known for their strong physiques!’ Madison shouted out in her mind.

Reaching towards the Decay Beast’s mouth, she jammed her hands in and started to pull apart its jaw.

*HISSSS!!!

Hissing out in pain, the beast flailed its arms and tentacles but Madison was adamant in killing him.

Retracting its tentacles, a spray of venom shot out of its body as Madison was drenched from head to toe.

Feeling the burning against her skin, she gritted her teeth and summoned all of the strength that she could gather.

[Conditions have been cleared.]

Ignoring the system notification, she felt strength burst from her body as she could see the muscles ripping apart.

"HAAA!!!"

Giving it her all, her skin turned black as red runic patterns appeared on the surface.

Her scarlet hair fluttered behind her as she ripped the beast in half.

Throwing the two halves of the monster’s body away, Madison stumbled on the spot before collapsing against the floor.

The last thing she saw was the system notification.

[Passive Skill obtained. Ancient Demon Physique.]

Landing next to Madison, Makron smiled softly as he healed her injuries. Dismissing the venom that was still trying to melt her body, he glanced back at the two halves that were merging together.

"You should stay dead." He said coldly.

Suddenly, the beast swelled up like a balloon and exploded into countless chunks that were then burnt to ash by blue flames.

Picking up Madison, Makron created a portal and left the area. His main goal had been achieved and Madison has obtained the optimal physique for a Demon Empress. Now it was just a matter of helping her gain levels and obtain the key to becoming the Empress.
