Nanomancer Reborn - I've Become A Snow Girl?

Chapter 905 Survive

"Ah... Hell is descending." A young man muttered as he looked at everything that was happening in the city.

The sky had lost its l.u.s.tre, the ground was breaking apart and monsters were appearing left and right.

There seemed to be no safe place in this world at all. The best thing they could do was keep running.

"How goes the evacuation?" He asked as one of his subordinates kneeled near him.

"We’re trying to organise a safe retreat out of the city but the appearance of the monsters are making it hard. They’re blocking our way out and fighting them only draws more monsters in."

"I see... I’ll escort it personally then. Come with me." He replied as he hopped off the building.

Reinforcing his body with magic, he flickered towards the blockage with a sword in hand.

Weaving through the city that he grew up in with familiarity, he found the monsters eating the citizens that were trying to leave.

Gritting his teeth, fire erupted out of him before condensing onto his sword.

Breathing out a mouthful of steam, his speed increased, leaving behind a trail of light thanks to the fire on his sword.

*PUCHI!!!!!

Cutting off the head of the monster, he cut the rest of the monster’s body up before glancing back at the citizens.

"Keep moving! Don’t stop! Once you get out of the city, you’ll see some soldiers. Follow them and they’ll escort you out of the danger area." He instructed.

Nodding their heads frantically, they followed behind him.

Looking at the countless corpses that were littering the ground, he gritted his teeth since there was nothing he could do for them.

Upon reaching the outskirts of the city, he allowed the guards to escort them before running to the next blockage.

’This is crazy...’ He thought to himself since it wasn’t an exaggeration to say that the world was ending.

*BANG!!!!!

From the side of a building, the walls were shattered apart by a plant like creature that resembled a venus fly trap. Its jaws reached out for him as vines wrapped around his ankles.

Narrowing his eyes, fire erupted out of his body and burned apart the vines.

Twisting his body, he slashed towards the jaws of the monster.

Upon contact, his flames were extinguished.

Widening his eyes, he noticed that a small vine was connected to his arm and mana couldn’t flow to the sword.

Spikes erupted around him like a bear trap as a second plant monster closed its jaws around the man.

Understanding that he was standing on a trap this whole time, he couldn’t help but shake his head and sigh.

"Why are you giving up already? If you can swing your sword, you can still kill it. I swear, this is why demons are better." A voice rang out as the plant was cut apart.

Opening his eyes in surprise, the man glanced towards a demon that had helped him.

"You seem pretty unharmed so you can take care of yourself." The demon said before flying into the sky.

’A demon helping humans?’ The man thought in surprise.

Looking above him, he could see swarms of demons charging into the city and helped the humans evacuate.

Blinking his eyes, he couldn’t help but wonder if he was already dead and that this was just a hallucination.

However, the pain that he could still feel meant that this was reality.

Shaking his head, he laughed.

"If even the demons are helping us, the world really is ending." He muttered as he grabbed his sword.

"Fine. I’ll fight to the bitter end."

Reinforcing his body once more with magic, he charged into battle once more.

Even if the world was ending, the inhabitants were still fighting back.

Demons or humans, it doesn’t matter anymore.

’Ah am I dying?’ A young woman thought as the last thing she could remember was the world crumbling apart and her body being crushed by a stampede of monsters.

The pain of having her bones pulverised and skull crushed was still fresh in her mind.

Looking down, she could see the entire city being destroyed as her body felt weightless. Her hands were transparent and she understood that she was dead.

She had wondered how ghost like monsters appeared after people died. It was probably in this state that they felt a large grudge which transformed them into monsters.

’Fascinating.’ The woman thought.

Of course, this was all to distract her from the reality of her being dead.

Unfortunately, it didn’t change the fact that she was still dead.

Tears welled up in her eyes as she didn’t want to die. Her family was still out there, she wanted to see her mother again, she wanted to apologise to her father, she wanted to play with her brother. She didn’t want to leave them behind.

However, the world was cruel and she was one of the unfortunate ones to be killed.

As her tears fell, a warm figure embraced her body.

{Don’t die. I’ll give you a second chance. Please just run.} A feminine voice called out as the woman paused.

Looking back, she could see a faint silhouette that gave her a gentle push on the back. As her body fell towards the ground, she got a good look at the figure.

She had long white hair that stood out against the dark sky and a pair of red eyes that looked at her with pity.

Before the woman could even say anything, she woke up in her body that should have been destroyed.

Touching her body, she noticed a golden barrier surrounding her body.

[You have been revived by the Demi Goddess Shiro.]

[You have received Protection of the Goddess.]

While in the barrier, you will not die or suffer injuries.

Reading the notification, the woman was shocked.

"A Demi Goddess?" She muttered. She knew that gods were real since people receive their blessings but she had been personally revived by a Demi Goddess.

Sitting there in a daze, she didn’t notice a monster creeping up on her as it unhinged its jaws and bit her head.

Widening her eyes on shock, she could see the golden barrier stopping the teeth from reaching her.

*PUCH!!!!!

A sword suddenly decapitated the monster as the woman watched a demon flick the blood off his sword.

"Can you stand? You’ve received the protection of her highness but all of the damage is being sent to her. Please don’t waste any time since her power is limited." The demon said as he kneeled down and offered her a hand.

Despite the strangeness of the situation, the woman nodded and accepted his help.

"Erm... is her highness called Shiro?" The woman asked as the demon nodded.

"Mn. While she’s not our ruler, she is the ruler of the home we live in. Don’t waste this chance." The demon smiled as he rushed to help the next person that had been revived.

Digesting the information, the woman clenched her fist and quickly ran to the edge.

Remembering the face of the girl that had revived her, the woman gritted her teeth.

’I’ll survive! I’ll definitely survive!’ She thought as her determination roared out in defiance against her original fate.

She didn’t know what kind of god had helped her but the fact remains that her life had been saved. While she may just be one in a crowd of many, she was still going to offer her faith to this god that had saved her.

’Please protect my family and keep them safe.’ The woman prayed while running to the exit of the city.

While this was happening, she didn’t know that a change had occurred in her source code. A single crest appeared as a faint golden aura tethered towards the source codes that were related to her.

Biting her nail anxiously, Gaia watched the entire situation play out as she could see the mortals receiving help from Shiro.

"Why is she aimlessly killing herself like this. There’s no benefit to getting these cities. The adventurers are low levelled and useless. She can create her own city for anchors so there is absolutely no benefit." Ouranos muttered with a frown since the situation was not in their favour at all. Right now, what Shiro could be doing was setting down more anchors while the queens are busy or she could get her allies to kill monsters to level up.

All the Queens are busy with protecting their own anchor so this was the perfect chance to strike.

"While I wouldn’t say I particularly enjoy your phrasing of the situation, I do agree with you on the fact that she’s doing this for no gain at all." Tartarus frowned.

"Aren’t you two cruel." Nyx chuckled.

"We’re not cruel, we’re being realistic. In the new age, there is no reason to help these people at all. If there was a benefit, I’d understand." Ouranos shook his head.

"Then you don’t understand Shiro at all. This is the difference between you and her. While there is no reason to help them, Shiro wants to help them because she pities them. She might be ruthless at times but that’s only when she can’t do anything. Despite the things that she does, Shiro is innately kind after all. She’s kind but she understands that sacrifices are needed. So when she can save lots of people without a large sacrifice, she will." Gaia spoke up while looking at Shiro who was rushing toward different cities.
