Chapter 578 Celestial Court Blacksmith

"So do I have to call you my empress as well like what Estrella does?" Helion asked with a laugh as Shiro rolled her eyes.

"Don’t do that. I think I’m fine with you just calling me Shiro." Shiro chuckled.

"Fair enough. Though I must say, your STR value is pretty high for a mage." Helion raised his eyebrow after seeing his STR stat jump up by quite a bit.

"Well perks of being one of the queens, I guess. Anyways, I’ll wait for Yin to wake up then I’ll send a message to the party, asking where they are right now." Shiro said as Helion agreed.

"In the meantime do you want me to do any maintenance on your equipment?" He offered.

"You know what? Sure. Eena might be a little beat up after all the fights I’ve been in but it shouldn’t be too bad." Shiro smiled as she revealed her armour.

All armours have an option to hide their appearance so that you can wear anything without looking like an armoured beast so that’s what Shiro normally went with. Therefore, she did not know the condition of her armour.

However, seen as though she could still use its abilities, she presumed that it was in relatively good condition seeing as though it had survived a fight against the tier 6 Guardian.

But just as she revealed the armour, they saw how battered up it was. Parts of it were torn and ripped to shreds while other parts were concaved. It was a miracle for the armour to actually work in this state.

". . ."

". . ."

"What did you even fight for it to be like this???? It’s supposed to be something that’s bordering on the boundaries of a Black grade equipment!" Helion widened his eyes in shock.

"Well.... Let’s just say I was fighting a tier 6 being and I had to use more than 10 full health recovery skills to even buy some time." Shiro scratched her cheek in embarrassment.

"Urg... my heart hurts seeing how nonchalant you can be about fighting a tier 6 being. And for your information, I didn’t even know one f*cking existed. However, I am thankful that my armour helped out." Helion sighed as Shiro grinned.

"Well I suppose your first commission as the Court Blacksmith is to repair this armour." Shiro laughed.

"Sure, pass it over and I’ll start fixing it again." Helion cracked his neck and fired up the forge.

Suddenly, a brilliant flame erupted out of the forge, forcing Helion back a few steps since he didn’t expect the fire to be this potent.

". . ." Looking at the fire, Helion took a moment to understand what was happening before looking at Shiro.

"You were originally an ice based user right?" He questioned with uncertainty.

"Yes...?"

"Then the f*ck is that?" He asked, pointing at the fire.

Shrugging her shoulders, Shiro placed the armour on the workbench.

"Good luck and hopefully you don’t turn the armour to ash." Shiro smiled before quickly leaving the premises.

Sighing softly, Helion looked back and forth from the fire and the broken armour, wondering about what he’s gotten himself into. Worst part was that it was permanent.

"F*ck it let’s do this." He muttered as he grabbed the armour.

{So why have you not given Lil’ Tian a court role yet?} Nimue asked curiously since she knew that Shiro had 5 slots available initially.

Aarim, Keomi, Keiko and now Helion all had one of the slots. So there was one slot left.

Hearing this, Shiro coughed lightly as Nimue immediately felt like something was wrong.

’Well I mean... if I gave it to him, there might be a chance that he gets Celestial Court consort or some crap.’ Shiro replied with embarrassment.

{. . . What? First of all, shouldn’t it be the other way around? Are you an emperor making a harem or something? And second of all, care to explain why you think that?} Nimue asked as she could see Shiro glance away with a small blush on her face.

’Well it’s just embarrassing ok? I’ll save it for now in case there’s something important.’ Shiro shook her head.

{Aren’t you worried about the same when you give it to Lyrica then?}

’Yes but Nan Tian is more dangerous right now since he’s quite forward.’

{. . . I don’t understand how your brain works sometimes.} Nimue sighed.

’Just let me do my thing ok?’ Shiro pouted as Nimue only shrugged.

{Fine my empress, this spirit shall not interfere with thou love life.}

It took Helion about 8 hours for Shiro’s armour to be repaired to working standard. Unlike her sword Athera, which had the self repair perk, Eena wasn’t the same so everything had to be done manually.

Looking at the now repaired armour, Shiro nodded with satisfaction.

"You’ve really improved in the time I’ve known you huh? What’s your secret?" Shiro asked with a smile.

"That should be what I ask you and not you ask me." Helion laughed.

"True but you pretty much already know about my ridiculous levelling speed thanks to my titles."

"I do and I wonder everyday where common sense has run off too. I miss him."

"He’s long gone haha."

Joking around with Helion a little more, Shiro checked up on Yin who was still sleeping in the guest room.

Opening the door lightly, Shiro saw Yin’s peaceful sleeping face and smiled softly.

She had been by Yin’s side during the entire 8 hours that Helion took to repair her armour but during this entire time, she had made no movement and slept peacefully.

Worry started to fill her mind as Shiro brushed Yin’s hair to the side.

{Don’t worry too much. If it’s something that Fei Ling left behind, it’ll be good for Yin.} Nimue said with a smile.

’I know but the fact that she’s not been as energetic is a bit worrying for me.’ Shiro shook her head.

{I’m sure she’ll recover soon.}

Nodding her head, Shiro decided to message the rest of the party to inform them that she was going to look for them now.

[Shiro: Where are you girls right now? I’ve pretty much finished with my task and I’ll be regrouping with you now. Helion’s also coming along.]

[Lyrica: We’re just in a raid right now. Also Shiro, did you almost die again?]

[Shiro: Yes. But I’m alive so it worked out fine no? Plus, Lil’ Tian’s even got an upgrade that can help us in the new age.]

[Lyrica: Please just be more mindful of your own safety ok?]

[Shiro: Mn, I understand. Don’t worry, I’m going to be more careful from now on. Also, we’ll be probably be going to meet my parents now since I’m sorted with everything. With my enemy from the past life dead, there’s not much to worry about anymore until the new age.]

[Lyrica: That’s good then.]

[Aarim: Shiro what the hell is your INT right now? Do you know how much bonus I’m getting from you?]

[Shiro: Should be 10% right?]

[Aarim: YES! But the value’s too f*cking high ok!? Who the f*ck has more than 10 million points in INT at this stage??? I got a million point bonus from you!]

[Shiro: I do and it’s only going to keep getting higher so get used to it haha.]

[Silvia: Getting stronger is fine and all but please, like Lyrica said, just be mindful of your safety please.]

[Shiro: Thanks for your concern. How’s Lil’ Chen and Madi by the way?]

[Madison: I’m doing good thanks for asking. Again, sorry for last time.]

[Shiro: Don’t worry about it, I understand what you were worried about but after we meet my family, our next expedition should give everyone an overall strength boost. When that happens, we can probably go on the front lines and farm for some levels. It’ll also be good for me to do some class up requirements.]

[Lyrica: Where are we going after we meet your family?]

[Shiro: We’ll be going to Greece where we’ll do the trials on Mount Olympus. There we can get a God’s insignia depending on the trial we do. They’re all based on Greek mythology so you might have to do some history research. Lil’ Tian told me that someone did the Zeus’ one and got his insignia which allowed him to control lightning at will so all of you can definitely get something good from it.]

[Lyrica: Oh my, that would be pretty handy. What God Trial are you planning to choose?]

[Shiro: I don’t know, depends on what I see when I get there. Anyways, what city are you girls in right now?]

[Lyrica: We’re in Vatican City. It should be pretty easy for you to get here.]

[Shiro: Why are you in Vatican City?]

[Lyrica: Well... you’ll understand once you get here.]

Furrowing her brows, Shiro glanced at Yin for a moment before sighing.

"Seems like my second daughter needs some help." She muttered.
