Nanomancer Reborn - I've Become A Snow Girl?

Chapter 49: Shadow Buff

Making herself a bow, Shiro stretched herself slightly before jogging up the mountain.

She narrowed her eyes as she saw the first Yeti.

[Yeti LVL 30]

HP: 100,000/100,000

MP: 100,000/100,000

The Yeti was roughly 2 meters tall with white fur and blue skin. Its neon blue eyes glowed in the snowfall as Shiro only smiled.

Yin Style Phantom Arts: 2nd Phantom – Speed Phantom.

Her body flickered as she jumped to the side of the mountain. Kicking off the wall, Shiro pulled back on her bow as she aimed at the top of the Yeti’s skull.

*BANG!

The arrow shot downwards as it killed the Yeti in one go. The force of the arrow caused the ground to crack and shatter as Shiro landed not too far away.

Walking up to the yeti, Shiro harvested the mana stone before collecting the loot.

The loot was mostly mediocre as they didn’t provide her with any skill.

Walking away from the Yeti, Shiro continued her way up the mountain.

Looking up, Shiro narrowed her eyes as she contemplated about taking a short cut.

’If I take the shortcut, I lose out on potential loot and levels. If I don’t take a short cut, it’ll take longer to reach the boss.’ She thought as Yin popped her head out.

"What’s up little Yin?" Shiro asked as she patted her head.

Yin opened her mouth as she gestured to it.

"You want food?" Shiro asked as she pulled out a D ranked mana stone.

Yin shook her head as Shiro understood what she wanted.

"You want another C ranked stone?! It’ll be wasted you know." Shiro smiled wearily.

Yin tried to pull a pitiful face but failed as it caused Shiro to chuckle.

"Fine. Here." She said as she pulled out the C ranked mana stone.

Yin chirped happily as it ate the stone.

A purple glow covered her body as Shiro realised that Yin was levelling up again.

[Yin LVL 10]

HP: 10,000/10,000

MP:25,000/25,000

Skills – Shadow Buff (Tier 1)

Shiro raised an eyebrow seeing Yin’s stats.

"You finally got a skill." Shiro smiled as Yin chirped in acknowledgement. However, she was a little too bloated to move.

"Aww... Did you eat that mana stone so you could level up?" Shiro asked.

Yin nodded.

"How cute." Shiro chuckled as she tapped her round belly.

Yin could only surrender herself to Shiro’s prodding as she couldn’t move.

"Fine I’ll stop poking you now." Shiro grinned seeing tears form in Yin’s eyes.

Placing Yin back into her hood, Shiro made sure to not nudge Yin too much.

The best thing about having a contract with Yin was that she shared her skills. So in effect, she could share the Shadow Buff twice in her party.

[Shadow Buff (Tier 1)]

+5% AGI, +10% stealth and +5% Elemental Resistance for 10 minutes.

Cost: 1,000MP

Cooldown: 30 minutes

The best part of this skill was the Elemental Resistance. With both her and Yin casting this, there’ll be a +10% elemental resistance to the party.

If her future party was to fight a heavily elemental based boss then this skill is a godsend.

Pulling up her hood, Shiro dashed up the mountain.

Turning the corner, she saw a group of Yeti’s that were about to cross paths with one another.

Nocking an arrow, Shiro narrowed her eyes and aimed the bow.

*BANG BANG BANG BANG!

Arrows continuously fired as each one hit the head of a Yeti with pinpoint accuracy.

Sliding on her knees slightly, she dodged the attack of a Yeti and fired an arrow towards his spine.

*BANG!

The body was ripped in half as Shiro breathed out heavily.

In a short moment, she had managed to kill off 5 Yetis with ease.

"Tch. If I still have my guns this would be easier." Shiro muttered as her true expertise came from her firearms.

She was a veteran of cold weapons and close quarter combat. However, with the firearms, she was a master with an almost 100% accuracy.

Snipers, pistols, machine guns, she was accurate with all of them.

People had attack domains which evolved into a zone of control. Within the zone, they had control over everything.

However, she never grasped the zone of control. If anything, she had a mimicry of one. Her versatility with her firearms and accuracy made it so that she could defeat those even with a zone of control.

Harvesting the corpses, Shiro smiled seeing her get 5 D ranked mana stones.

"5 out of 5. Nice."

Shiro grinned as she stored them away.

Keeping the bow in her hands, she waited for her MP to regenerate.

The only downside to her bow right now was that each arrow took a minimum of 1k MP and at least 5k MP each to one-shot the Yetis.

And this was when she aimed for the weak points. If she missed a shot, which was rare, it would have just been a waste of 5k MP. A dangerous amount when taking into account the fact that 5k was equal to almost 15% of her total MP.

Once her MP had regenerated, Shiro continued her hunt.

Shadow Buff (Tier 1)]

On the way to the first boss, Shiro had made sure she killed each and every one of the Yeti’s that came her way.

Unfortunately, due to the nature of the bow, Shiro lamented the fact that she couldn’t exploit a certain weakness.

If she did, she would have opened herself up to an attack.

And while she could use ice, it would be a lot less effective and consume too much mana.

Inserting more mana into the bow, Shiro looked towards where the boss was.

Currently, she was below the boss area so she couldn’t see the boss.

But that didn’t stop her as an arrow was formed in her hands using nanobots.

Nocking the arrow, Shiro shot it upwards with barely any force. Only enough to be around eye level with the area and nothing more.

Clutching her hands, the arrow expanded into a mirror.

Narrowing her eyes, Shiro made sure to see if there were any obvious weaknesses.

The boss was a stereotypical Yeti with a few minor differences. There were neon blue patterns spread out across his body, four horns and ice spikes on the elbows and spine.

His arms were abnormally long as they reached all the way down to his feet. In addition to this, his arm had 2 elbows.

’Small eyes which means bad vision. His nose is quite big so he may rely on smell. No ears so he can’t hear. Attack range should be quite far due to his arms.’ Shiro thought as the mirror fell back down.

’I can try to supercharge an arrow and shoot it towards his ass through the mountain, but that has a high chance of missing. Not to mention, the power would decrease by a lot.’ She sighed as she dissembled the mirror.

"Little Yin, hold tight ok? I’ll be fighting a boss." Shiro warned as Yin nodded.

Giving her body a stretch, Shiro narrowed her eyes before dashing up the face of the cliff and towards the boss.

Yin Style Phantom Arts: 2nd Phantom = Speed Phantom.

Her body flickered as she climbed higher.

Nocking an arrow, Shiro charged it full with MP.

’This should do for now.’ She thought as 7.5k MP was charged in it. She wasn’t naïve enough to think that this would be able to one-shot the boss but rather, to try to deal as much damage as she could at the start.

The bosses defences would be lowered at the start. Therefore, this was the best chance to heavily injure it.

Jumping over the cliff edge, Shiro saw the boss and pulled back in her bow.

The arrow was shaking as if begging to be fired.

*BOOM!!!!!!

Smashing into the cervical spine just under the skull, the arrow smashed the Yeti into the side of the mountain.

Landing softly, Shiro didn’t let up as she made another mana arrow.

*BOOM!!!

Just as the Yeti climbed out of the wall, the second arrow shot against his torso and sent him back.

Lightning and metal twisted in her palms as Shiro made a NanoTech arrow.

Aiming upwards, Shiro shot the arrow.

*PISH PISH PISH!

The arrow started to break apart as it formed into several smaller arrows. There were tiny rockets that were attached to the tip as they propelled towards the Yeti.

*BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOM!

Each of the arrows was an explosive type arrow as cracks started to spread further on the cliff face.

*URAHHHHH!!!!!!

A furious roar rang out as Shiro grinned.

[Tigris Yeti LVL 30 – Elite- Enraged]

HP: 232,000/500,000

MP: 200,000/200,000

"Little bit more than half health taken off huh? I can take that." Shiro muttered with a smile.

Nocking another arrow, she was about to fire when the Yeti launched a huge chunk of the wall at her.

Quickly rolling to the side, she dodged the wall and aimed once more.

The Yeti didn’t give her a break as he had already jumped towards her about to smash down with his hands.

Shiro narrowed her eyes as she slammed her palms down.

*BOOOM!!!

The giant wall of ice shot upwards, slamming heavily into the Yeti’s body.

While her ice could deal minimal damage, she could still at least use it as protection.

[MP: 58,250/82,500]

Shiro frowned slightly at her MP drainage.

’A little unexpected but not too bad.’ She thought.

’With his reach, I should continue to bombard him with arrows.’

Nocking an arrow, Shiro closed one of her eyes and aimed at the Yeti.

Mana continued to be inserted into the arrow as the Yeti ran towards her with anger.

Aiming carefully, Shiro released the arrow when she had a good shot.

*BANG!

The arrow pierced the Yeti’s right eye before smashing through the brain.

The yeti walked for a little more before collapsing in front of Shiro’s feet.

When the arrow was fired, she made sure the arrow acted like a drill to increase the piercing power.

Not to mention the fact that 10k MP was injected into the thing.

Pulling out the mana stone, Shiro collected the body.

Most of the loot consisted of miscellaneous items while there were only a few worthwhile items. However, the best item in the pile of loot was the Elemental Orb.

[Elemental Orb – Ice Type]

Fuse together with a weapon or armour to give it an ice property.

Elemental Orbs were quite in demand as higher-level ones give you the more powerful versions of the elements.

While she couldn’t use this since she had no need for it, it would be an amazing tool for blacksmiths like Helion. He would be able to either infuse this into a weapon or armour with pretty high amount of efficiency.

"I should probably give this to him for Lyrica’s next weapon. Having an ice property would allow her to crowd control the enemies better." Shiro muttered storing away the items.

Sadly, her level didn’t increase but that was fine. She still had quite a distance to travel before she reached the final boss.

However, before she could leave, Yin jumped out of her hood and flew towards a corner of the boss arena.

"Little Yin?" Shiro called out, curious.

Yin landed near an ice boulder before chirping to Shiro.

Walking over, she picked Yin up.

"You want this boulder?" She asked.

Yin shook her head as she made a smashing motion.

"You want me to break it?" Shiro asked as Yin nodded.

Not sure why Yin wanted her to break the boulder, but it wasn’t too much trouble for her.

Making a NanoTech hammer, Shiro jumped up as a rocket behind the hammer increased her momentum.

*BOOOMMMMMM!!!!!!

A shockwave rang out as Shiro saw that the hammer barely chipped a little of the boulder.

"The f*ck?!" Shiro cried out in surprise. For the ice boulder to resist her hammer to this extent means that it was something extraordinary.
