Nanomancer Reborn - I've Become A Snow Girl?

Chapter 30: Shopping

*Knock knock knock

Knocking on Lyrica’s door, Shiro waited patiently.

"Ah it’s you Shiro!" Lyrica said with a smiled as she was excited. However, her face blushed when she remembered what Madison said.

[I got a present for you.] Shiro smiled as Lyrica welcomed her into the room.

"A present? You shouldn’t have." Lyrica said but was jumping for joy on the inside.

[You’ll be needing it for what we’re doing next.] Shiro shook her head.

’Next? What are we doing next?!’ Lyrica thought as her face blushed at the thought.

’What is the girl thinking about?’ Shiro thought, seeing Lyrica blush a lot recently.

[Are you ok? You’ve been blushing a lot recently.] Shiro asked as she placed her palm on her forehead.

This caused Lyrica’s blush to deepen as she waved her hand frantically.

"AH it’s fine nothing really!" She said hurriedly.

Shiro only furrowed her brows a little before pulling out the two weapons.

[Here are two level 15 sword type weapons and 5 E rank mana stones. You should upgrade your weapon since we’re going to be doing an E ranked raid.] Shiro smiled as she leaned back slightly and crossed her legs.

"Ah, so that was what you meant." Lyrica muttered with a silent tear falling. She was too focused on the two level 15 weapons that she didn’t see the E ranked raid part.

[What else did you think I meant?] Shiro asked.

"Nothing. Don’t mind me."

Pulling out her dual ended poison blades, Lyrica set it down on the ground and grabbed the two level 15 weapons.

Placing both weapons besides the poison blade, she set up the E ranked mana stones as a pentagram.

Lyrica was following the diagram the system gave her as she was nervous. Unsure if it would work since upgrades always had a chance to fail.

Shiro only smiled feeling her worry.

Her Nano Growth Infuser was special amongst the tools to make a growth weapon. It had a 100% success rate, the only problem being the initial synchronisation. If the weapon rejects the Nano Growth Infuser, then it doesn’t matter it the evolution rate was 100% since it couldn’t evolve.

Tapping upgrade on her screen, Lyrica watched with anticipation.

From the poison blades, the handle glowed a blue silver as metal tendrils slowly crept out from the orb.

"What the hell?!" Lyrica cried out in surprise. She had heard of weapons being upgraded before but never anything similar to this manner at all.

The metal tendrils grabbed both swords as it dug deep into the construction of the blades. The blade itself flaked apart as the nano bots consumed everything with vigour.

The 5 E ranked mana stones started to float upwards as it slowly rotated towards the centre handle. Electricity sparked as the metal tendrils started to spread outwards into the blades on either side, reinforcing them.

2 neon blue orbs could be seen on the base of the blades as circuitry patterns expanded from them and coated the entire blade.

This small upgrade of 5 levels turned the blade from a mix of metal and monster parts to almost looking like a piece of alien tech.

"Erm... Shiro..." Lyrica muttered seeing the dual ended blade.

"Tell me honestly. This isn’t a normal upgrade is it?" Lyrica asked.

[No it is not. I combined it with something I found in the Dungeon from before. With it, I was able to make your weapon a growth type weapon.] Shiro replied telling her a little of the truth.

Ignorance was a bliss, and this was the same. Lyrica was too weak to know about Nano Bots right now. A single slip of a word, and Lyrica will be having the entire government after her.

The appearance can be attested to aesthetic choices. But if Lyrica talked about nano bots, then they could no longer bluff their way out of this situation.

"Is that so? But what was the item for it to make such a big difference on the weapon?" Lyrica asked.

[I don’t know but it worked.] Shiro smiled.

"Indeed it did." Lyrica nodded. The new stats for the dual ended poison blades surprised her by how good they were for just a level 15 weapon.

[Dual Ended Poison Blades (Blue) LVL 15/20]

Creator: Helion

+20/30 Sharpness

+15/25 AGI

+15/20 DEX

+15/20 Poison

+20/30 Durability

+15/25 STR

Requirements to Evolve into LVL 20:

15x E rank Mana Stone

2x LVL 20 Sword type weapons

The average sharpness of a level 15 blade was only a +15. Even the stat focused ones had only +20. Yet, this weapon was a mix of abilities and still gave her +20 in sharpness.

[So the reason I wanted you to upgrade this blade is because you’re taking a test to be on the raiding party of an E ranked Raid. The Spider’s Whisper.] Shiro typed out.

"PFFFF WHAT?!" Lyrica cried out in shock. She was just a level 15 and Shiro wants her to join a level 20 raid.

"S-Shiro! I’ll die ah!!" Lyrica said as Shiro smiled with a slight sadistic vibe.

[I’ll make sure you don’t.]

Shiro grinned as she tapped Yin’s little head.

If Yin was a cat, she’ll look like a kid version of a mafia boss.

"But- but- I can’t do it." Lyrica sighed.

[I believe you can. I want to trust in your abilities to cross levels and your hidden proficiency.] Shiro encouraged.

’She believes in me...’ Lyrica thought as she imagined Shiro saying the sentence.

It repeated over and over again in her mind as she felt a strange sense of power rising up in her.

"I’LL DO IT!!!" Lyrica said as Shiro smiled.

[There you go.]

"But I want a trade!" Lyrica said as Shiro found it reasonable.

[What do you want?] Shiro asked.

"I want a shopping trip with just me and you. You’ll get dressed however I want is that ok?" Lyrica asked, face red.

[As long as it’s nothing lewd. I don’t mind.] Shiro nodded. Dressing up wasn’t a problem for her.

Though she never did anything similar in her past life. It was just her fighting for survival and strength rather than actually doing thing a girl would do.

So this experience would be a fun time for her.

"Alright! Let me get changed." Lyrica said as she walked to her closet. She paused and turned around to Shiro.

[What’s up?] Shiro asked.

"Erm.. can you look away?" Lyrica asked.

[Sure I guess?] Shiro said as she spun her chair around.

Lyrica was acting quite strange as Shiro didn’t understand why.

Shrugging her left shoulder, she waited patiently for Lyrica to finish.

The sound of clothes ruffling could be heard.

"You can turn around now." Lyrica said as Shiro nodded.

"Wao~" Shiro muttered as Lyrica looked as if she had a major make over.

Wearing a light green dress decorated with floral patterns, Lyrica had her shoulders exposed. The sleeves of the dress reached her wrist. The front of the dress reached her thigh while the back reached her calves. In addition to this, she wore white stockings and a pair of small brown boots.

The entire outfit accentuated her amazing figure as Shiro couldn’t help but applaud as a fellow woman.

Tying her hair into a ponytail, Lyrica stood there with a red face.

"What do you think?" She asked.

[It looks nice. Suits you very nicely.] Shiro smiled.

Hearing the feedback, Lyrica felt joy well up inside her.

"Thank you!" Lyrica said holding onto Shiro’s hand.

Shiro couldn’t write anything due to Lyrica grabbing her hands.

"Ah sorry!" Lyrica let go when she realised Shiro couldn’t type.

[Don’t mind it. But tell me, where are we going to shop? I want something that won’t rip mid-fight.] Shiro said as she didn’t want to start fighting nude in the middle of a boss. It’ll be highly distracting.

That being said, she still had no idea what her dress was made of. It was the first thing she had when she woke up and it was indestructible. But the damage sill passed through to her.

"Well be going to the civilian’s area since we just want to get some casual wear." Lyrica smiled and pulled on Shiro’s arm.

Shiro smiled wearily as she stood up and followed after Lyrica.

When they were walking out of the school, Lyrica attracted several eyes as she was showing off her beauty.

The other students were speechless seeing 2 of the most beautiful people in the school walking side by side. Especially with Lyrica dressing herself up.

To them, Shiro was the type that looked good in anything while Lyrica looked like a gentle breeze on a hot day. Refreshing.

Madison only watched with a grin seeing the two.

’I wonder if Shiro was the one who suggested this or Lyrica. Kuhuhuhu...’ She thought with interest.

Leaving the school grounds, Lyrica brought Shiro to the shop she liked to visit most often.

The shop dealt with dresses and the such as Lyrica had the intention of making Shiro a dress up doll.

"Alright. So in trade of me following you to the E ranked raid, Shiro I want you to dress in whatever I want you to right?" Lyrica asked.

[Yes, that’s what I agreed upon.]

"Then try this on." Lyrica said grabbing a dress and pushed Shiro towards the changing rooms.

Holding the dress, Shiro looked at it in surprise as she shrugged.

[Alright. If you want me to try anything else on just grab them now to make it easier.] Shiro said as Lyrica nodded.

Quickly grabbing a few dresses, she slowly piled up a mountain of clothes.

Shiro felt her mouth twitch seeing this many clothes.

’Does this girl have a fascination about clothes or something?!’ Shiro thought.

Though the truth was Lyrica being more fascinated about her compared to clothes.

The first outfit was a simple one.

A dress shirt coloured light yellow. A pair of black skin-tight pants that reached around her calves.

Walking into the changing rooms, Shiro took off her dress and was about to put it on when she stopped.

When they did the experiment on her, they had caused a ton of irreversible scarring on her body.

Now that she was reborn, there wasn’t a single blemish on her.

Smiling lightly, Shiro saw her reflection and felt grateful for a second chance at life.

Changing into her outfit, she wore a summer hat and walked out.

"Ah..." Lyrica paused seeing Shiro. Ignoring that fact that she basically had a block of ice on her arm, which she had no idea how she managed to change with that attached, Shiro was extremely beautiful. Almost like a young model.

"Amazing!" Lyrica called out as she grabbed another outfit for her.

Shiro nodded slightly as she took the outfit.

It was a red and gold qipao that exposed a little of her thighs, which she covered with some black stockings.

The outfits kept coming as Shiro played along. It was surprisingly fun to spend time like this with her friend.

Eventually, they settled with 3 outfits. The first being a snow-white hoody, short jeans and stockings.

The second being a white summer dress and a light blue silk jacket. And finally, the last one was a t-shirt and jeans.

Shiro was about to change back into her normal dress when she realised something off in the dressing room.

There was a camera that wasn’t there previously.

’Someone must have snuck it in when I was away.’ Shiro thought.

Grabbing the camera, she narrowed her eyes as nano bots formed in her palms.

Controlling them to enter the camera, Shiro projected the footage on a small nano screen and saw that they recorded nothing. Unfortunately, she couldn’t see the face of the assailant.

Wiping out all the stored data, Shiro decided to implant a mini trap inside that would cause the camera to explode and send sharp shrapnels at the assailant.

There was also the chance of someone else picking it up so she installed a fingerprint recogniser. As long as it was the same person, the trap will go off. If it wasn’t the trap would lay dormant.

Making sure that the camera was disabled. She scanned the room and surroundings to make sure there were no one looking before finally changing again.

"Ha.... Perverts the lot of them." Shiro muttered with a shake of her head.

Picking up the three outfits, Shiro walked out of the changing rooms.

[Lyrica, let’s go.] Shiro typed out as Lyrica nodded.

Due to Shiro trying out different outfits, they attracted a small crowd since Shiro herself was a beautiful girl.

Reaching the till, Shiro eventually paid for everything since they were more expensive than Lyrica thought.

Even though she’s been saving up her money from the previous Dungeon runs, the expenses of clothes were still above what she could afford.

It made sense since the Dungeon gave them a lot of money. Even low-level people can just spend a little of their time in a low-level dungeon to make some bucks. Therefore, the prices had to go up accordingly.

Halfway through paying, Shiro was sure she heard a faint scream as her eyes were cold.

Leaving the store, Lyrica had a satisfied face since she was able to witness Shiro in a lot of different outfits today.
