Nanomancer Reborn - I've Become A Snow Girl?

Chapter 431 Receiving The Spell

Quickly running to the side, Shiro wanted to get as far as she could from both of the behemoths before she was killed in the crossfire. One couldn’t see her and might accidentally kill her with his foot while the other was willing to send an apocalypse cascading down onto her because she poked it a few times.

Unfortunately, despite her attempts of running to the side, the giant was simply running too fast for it to matter and the best thing she could do right now was hope that she wasn’t crushed like an ant.

"Shiro!"

Hearing a voice shout her name, Shiro looked up to see Kuromi sliding through the forest on what seemed to be an ice ramp of sorts.

"Grab on!" Kuromi shouted out and reached out with her hand.

Nodding her head, Shiro grabbed Kuromi’s hand and was taken onto her ramp.

"What’s happening? How can you use ice?" Shiro asked with confusion while balancing herself on the ice.

"Phillip had the spell all along. He didn’t want to give it to us since he wanted us to live a peaceful life but with how things are, along with the fact that we proved that we can use the energy even without the spell, he decided to give me the spell in the end." Kuromi explained while making sure that they dodged the trees.

"I see... anyways, I’ve managed to piss off the dragon quite a bit so it’s currently fighting the Teriu city guards. Unfortunately, the guards seemed to have made some preparations so they won’t be attacking the city." Shiro nodded.

"I say that’s a better alternative. After all, none of the innocent bystanders will be harmed. Let’s cooperate and keep the dragon out while inflicting as much damage as we can to the enemy guards." Kuromi replied since it would be quite cruel to involve the bystanders that have done nothing.

"Hmm.... True. To be honest, I should REALLY think about bystanders some more." Shiro nodded after a short moment since in her past life, she destroyed a city in a fit of rage and let’s just say the body count wasn’t low.

"Anyways, are you able to pass me the spell too? If I’m able to access my armour without charging up it’ll be quite helpful." Shiro asked.

"Of course. However, keep in mind that this spell isn’t that efficient. To offset the lack of a second strand, it burns up more energy than normal. So, sure you can access your armour but at twice the cost so you need to remember that." Kuromi warned while passing her the spell book.

Grabbing the spell book, Shiro was almost thrown off the ramp since Kuromi had to quickly dodge to the right after the giant threw a tree towards them.

"Tch, I’m not exactly the speediest fighter so I’ll be counting on you Shiro." Kuromi clicked her tongue.

"Don’t worry, once I can use my armour, I’ll be able to send the giant towards the dragon in an instant." Shiro grinned as she quickly memorised the spell.

Narrowing her eyes, she couldn’t help but praise the lord that had created this spell.

The book had recorded a way for her to tap into her reservoir of Celestial Energy without actually having to use it. Once she taps into the energy pool, she’ll then need to mould it in a way that creates a pseudo soul strand which allows her to use energy normally.

Of course, as Kuromi had stated, doing so would burn up twice the amount of energy that is needed and if her concentration fluctuates, the strand would be broken and she’ll lose access to her energy once more.

The hardest part of this would definitely be the initial step of tapping into the reservoir. With only one strand available, it was akin to trying to open a two key lock with only one key.

She’ll need to ’wiggle’ her way into the reservoir without following normal procedures. This wasn’t without its risks of course. If she is careless in her actions, her body may be paralysed for a few moments and during these moments, she’ll experience quite a bit of pain.

However, Shiro wasn’t intimidated by this and immediately sat down.

’If Kuromi can do it, so can I since we’re the same person.’ She thought to herself.

Closing her eyes, she started to focus her mind so that she could tap into her reservoir.

Seeing this, Kuromi only smiled and made sure that Shiro wasn’t knocked off balance or else it may stop her from succeeding.

Snapping her fingers, Kuromi pointed her palm towards the giant’s body.

*KRRRRR!!!!

An ice rose bloomed on his chest as the petals exploded out into chains that restrained his movements for a short moment.

"URAHH!!!!" Tensing his body, the giant shattered the chains with brute force and tore the rose off his chest. Crushing it in his hand, he threw the ice chunks towards Kuromi.

Swiping her hand to the side, Kuromi created a second magic circle that turned all of the shards into thin needles and sent them flying towards the giant.

Piercing into his skin, the needles released a biting cold that started to freeze his flesh. Some of the cold had even reached his bones as the giant could feel his joints aching.

Gritting his teeth, the giant activated one of his berserk spells. Red marking could be seen spreading out from his body.

’He’s using that spell again.’ Kuromi thought to herself since she had seen this during his first fight against the dragon.

"ARHH!!!!" Shouting as loud as he could, the giant shook off the biting cold and glared towards Kuromi who was already quite far away.

Jumping into the air, the giant brought his axe over his head as Kuromi widened her eyes.

Should the axe smash into the ground, there was no doubt that a crater would be formed and no matter how she dodged, she’ll be caught in the area.

’Tch, seems like I’ll need to block this one.’ She thought with a frown.

Taking a deep breath, she was about to make a shield when she sensed Celestial Energy beside her.

Looking to her side, she was surprised to see that Shiro had already tapped into her reservoir and was currently forming the pseudo strand.

’Damn, that’s pretty quick.’ Kuromi thought to herself before returning her focus back on crafting a shield to block the giant.

Pointing her palm towards the giant, a giant magic circle appeared in the air as an ice erupted out from the giant and formed a shield that had tens of ice pillars acting as support.

*CRACK!!!!!

As the axe slammed into the shield, it immediately cracked the surface from the initial impact.

’Damn!’

Quickly reinforcing some of the pillars, Kuromi was able to keep them barely intact with several fractures slowly increasing in size.

Thankfully, the shield did its job and stopped the giant from decimating the ground around them.

Growling in anger, the giant raised his fist and punched the shield with as much force as he could muster.

*BANG!

Shattering the already damaged ice shield with his punch, his heavy body slammed into the ground before resuming his sprint.

Since the danger of being destroyed by his axe slam had passed, Kuromi focused on evasion in order to conserve some energy.

After a short moment, she could feel the energy next to her stir ever so slightly.

Glancing over at Shiro, she could see a void open up beneath her as the shadow wrapped around her body.

"Fuu..." Breathing out softly, Shiro stood up and looked towards the giant that was rampaging towards them.

"Kuro." She called out.

"Sup."

"Are you able to get him to try the axe slam again when I give you the signal? I’ve got a plan." Shiro asked with a slight smile.

"Of course." Kuromi nodded.

Seeing that Kuromi agreed, Shiro snapped her fingers and created a black and purple orb.

Throwing it towards where the dragon was, Shiro had her energy carry it until it was just above the dragon.

As they were in combat, neither the dragon nor the guards noticed the orb.

"Now!" Shiro called out once she saw that her orb had reached its destination.

Upon receiving the signal, Kuromi slammed her hand down towards the ground as ice could be seen forming just in front of the giant.

*BANG!

The moment the giant stepped on the ice, Kuromi had the ice shoot up into the air and launch the giant so that it had no choice other than to slam his axe down.

Noticing an opportunity to attack, the giant raised his axe over his head.

Seeing that the giant was about to slam his axe down, Shiro grinned and snapped her fingers.

Creating a second orb, she then threw it towards the giant as it unravelled itself to reveal a portal to the void.
