Chapter 1246: Recreating Isilia's Body
"Mn? Yes?" Nan Tian raised an eyebrow, wondering if there was anything he missed.
Fidgeting with her fingers for a moment, Shiro cleared her throat.
"So I don't know how to say this easily… I know you've had feelings for me for a while now. And while I was in the world of creation, Lyrica confessed." Shiro bit her lip and decided to not beat around the bush.
It was better for her to tell him now than wait.
"And I said yes. It's not that I disli-"
Before she could say more, she felt his hand on her head.
"If you said yes to her, then that's all I need to know." Nan Tian smiled softly.
"While I did hold feelings, my main goal was always to make sure you were safe, to repay you for everything you did for me when I was young." He reassured.
"If you find happiness with Lyrica, then I am more than happy to support you like always. There's no need to explain. Plus I trust that Lyrica will treat you well." Nan Tian chuckled as Lyrica nodded her head with a pat to her chest as though she was saying 'Of course I will!'.
"So there's no need for you to explain."
Hearing this, Shiro nodded her head.
"Is there anything else I should know?" He asked curiously but Shiro shook her head.
"We did find out about an interesting piece of information but I think I'll let everyone have a rest first before I disclose it."
Shiro didn't want to tell them about the mysterious third party just yet. Once they get a little stronger, she'll let them know along with her plans on trying to find Aria.
"Alright. I'll sort out some dates for the potential training holiday in the meantime." Nan Tian smiled as he turned around and walked out the room.
Once the door closed behind him, he could only let out a bitter smile before shaking his head.
###
Once Nan Tian left, Shiro and Lyrica made their way to the labs with Isilia and Edvimar's soul capsules.
Compared to making Karin's body, Shiro wanted them to have something as close to their original bodies as possible along with further enhancements. Something similar to her own body since it was indistinguishable from flesh.
"When do you want to tell the others?" Lyrica asked while watching Shiro design her parent's new bodies.
"Tell them about what?" Shiro raised an eyebrow without turning around. She wasn't sure if Lyrica meant the third party or something else.
"Well about us. We told Nan Tian first which makes sense. So I'm just wondering when we should tell the others." Lyrica replied as a small blush crept up on her face since she felt a little embarrassed telling others. While also being happy deep inside.
"Hmm… We can probably tell them tomorrow once I finish making your parent's bodies."
Flicking her finger, she cleared up a part of the room and created two surgery tables to place the bodies.
"And after that I suppose I'll have to talk with Isilia regarding us as well." Shiro muttered, knowing it was going to be an awkward talk. While Isilia has voiced her support before, it still doesn't make it any less weird considering they were like sisters and now Shiro's dating Isilia's daughter.
"That's true… Lyrica nodded while she kicked her feet back and forth. She was currently sitting on the table on the side while looking out the window at Asharia.
Waving her hand, Shiro extracted some creation energy and placed it within the new bodies, they had miniature versions of Shiro's new core but adjusted so that Isilia and Edvimar could handle it with their souls.
It was still mainly destruction energy within, but the new source of creation energy will serve as protection.
"I think that should be everything… Their bodies are now stronger than before and can function as normal. They should be able to gain exp and level up as normal if the system wasn't malfunctioning. All that's left now is their souls."
Bringing out the capsules, Shiro handled it with care as she slowly extracted their souls.
Making sure that any damage they had sustained was healed up without issue, she inserted their souls into the new vessel.
Silence ensued as Shiro bit her lips nervously. Even though she was sure she had everything set up properly, this was still her best friend's life at stake.
"Hng…"
Hearing a soft groan, Shiro sighed in relief as Isilia slowly opened her eyes before shielding them from the light.
"What happened…?" She asked in confusion as the last thing she could remember is being taken away by the watchman.
"You missed a lot of things. But there's no rush. How are you feeling?"
Shiro wanted to know how Isilia felt about her new body. If there was any discomfort, she'd fix it.
"I'm feeling a little tired. But aside from that I feel weird since there's a strange energy inside me." Isilia furrowed her brows as this was very different from her old body.
Hearing this, Shiro sighed in relief since this was rather standard. Isilia will get used to the new body soon enough.
Turning her head, Isilia could see the anxious Lyrica wanting to hug her but stopping herself since Isilia had just woken up.
Seeing this, Isilia smiled softly and gestured for Lyrica to come over.
Before Lyrica could say anything, Isilia hugged her daughter tightly.
Shiro decided to excuse herself for a moment so that the three of them could enjoy this reunion. Stepping out of the room, she closed her eyes and resynced herself with all of the satellites that she had sent into orbit.
Seeing that a majority of them had been damaged or broken, Shiro couldn't help but furrow her brows.
However, fixing the satellites was rather easy. Since they're made from nanobots, Shiro could easily access the mana once more.
Tapping her fingers against the railings, all of the satellites roared to life as their damaged parts started to repair themselves.
It only took a moment for all of the satellites to come back to life as she now had a full scan of the planet.
'Ohya?' Noticing that Hades seemed to have made his own domain rather far out, Shiro could see some hints of Nyx and Gaia influence elsewhere as well. However all of their domains are rather undeveloped so far. A strange barrier, similar to the one she had to break through, were also present.
'There's a few queens that seem to be observing the situation but not doing anything to join the fights… though that makes sense considering the enemies are gods.'
Thinking about it for a moment, Shiro decided to snap her fingers. Rail cannons formed on every single satellite as she aimed for the barriers. She won't help out more than necessary since she was sure that Hades and the others could handle themselves in a fight.
She just needed to get rid of the barrier that was holding them back.
Watching the myriad of tier 9 magic circles forming on every satellite, Shiro couldn't help but chuckle since this would've been an unimaginable feat for her.
Even 100 Shiro's wouldn't be able to defeat her in her current state.
Ignoring technique execution as well as combat senses, she could simply overwhelm the enemy with pure brute force. That's how strong the new core made her.
She had an idea on why this was the case. After all, as the First Born of Destruction, she had the strongest source of Destruction energy in the world after Chaos. To balance this and to make the new core, she needed an equal amount of Creation energy.
Now that she had both, she was most likely on par or just below Chaos.
With all of the rail cannons charged and ready, Shiro flicked her finger, firing all of them simultaneously.
###
Healing everyone with her spells, Gaia furrowed her brows as the onslaught wasn't stopping. She didn't know why but a majority of her high tier spells seemed to have been sealed. She wasn't here in her true form either since she was in the middle of constructing her domain.
However, the gods that were attacking her weren't restrained by this. They had descended with all of their power and more thanks to this strange barrier, and she couldn't even call for help.
"Guess this is the end." Gaia sighed as her mana was running out. This was as much as she could do, all that's left was to watch her domain get destroyed.
But before she could embrace despair, she sensed an overwhelming source of energy descending from above.
*CRACK BANG!!!!
Unable to hold back this energy for even a second, the barrier shattered apart as a pillar of light crashed down, killing a god that was unfortunate enough to be beneath the source.
Feeling her divinity returning, Gaia recognised the familiar energy within the light.
"Seems like Shiro's back." Gaia grinned happily as a new source of energy filled her body.
Despite the system malfunction, a panel appeared in front of her.
[You're welcome for the buff and help.]
[- Shiro]
Seeing the thumbs up emote of Shiro next to her sighed name, Gaia couldn't help but laugh.
"Well if Shiro's helping out, I can lose here." She narrowed her eyes as her energy surged to new heights.
