Nanomancer Reborn - I've Become A Snow Girl?-Chapter 1175: Request for Misu
Arriving at Misu's office, Shiro could see Misu sitting in a large office chair with her legs on the table. In her mouth was the stick of mana that Aarim had made and she had a large grin on her face.
"Welcome to my tower, do you have any requests for the greatest detective there is?" Misu grinned as she made a pose with her hand holding the mana stick like a cigarette.
"Technically if we brute force things I might be the better detective. You can ask the dead but I can read more." Shiro smirked as Misu pouted in annoyance.
Crushing the mana stick in her hands, she sat properly.
"Way to dampen my mood. Rude."
"Haha sorry sorry, but we both know I'll still need to rely on you for the best info." Shiro smiled as Misu smiled and nodded her head.
"Umu, very true! Now, I heard that you went to Aarim's to drop off a friend of yours, can I assume that you're here to do the same with one of these two?" Misu asked.
"Either news travels fast or your scouts are just that talented. But yes, you are right, I am here to drop off Nine who I hope can be in your care for a while." Shiro smiled.
"Oh? The lad with the katanas? Sure I don't see why not. But if you want someone to look after him there are better people for this job. Since you came to me you also want me to investigate something don't you?" Misu smirked as she narrowed her eyes at Shiro.
"Yep, I have an S class assignment for you." Shiro grinned.
Hearing this, Misu's eyes sparkled since Shiro had an understanding of the grades and wouldn't just attach an S rank one onto any mission.
"I want you to find all the information, and I mean ALL the information, on the group that experimented on Nine and Iris. Nine can provide you with some clues while he's under your care and you can also give him some training. Any would do since he's a jack of all trade kind of vanguard. The key for now is to find out everything you can on this group. They're still out there so I want to be able to track them down quickly. We won't kill them all yet but rather monitor and see what's going on before we do anything." Shiro said as her eyes were cold.
Seeing this, Misu knew that whoever did this is rather high on Shiro's kill list.
Adding the document to her current pile of folders, she asked Shiro a few more questions before dragging Nine away to one of the training halls.
"Before we do the investigation since I'm preparing staff for this job, I need you to show me what you're capable of. " Misu said as she stretched her body and her playful aura disappeared.
"Shiro said that you're a jack of all trades. If an abnormality like her had described you using the same term as herself then I'll need to test you extensively."
Hearing this, Nine froze up midway through setting up his formation.
"Pardon?"
Without saying anything, Misu's dress started to change as green flames erupted around her.
From the flames, an army of undead started to appear.
*FUOHHHHH!!!!
Bursting out with energy, the flames reached the ceiling as the final soldier was something too big for the standard flames to summon.
From within the emerald fire, a pair of hollowed eyes appeared followed by a draconic head and body.
A pair of mighty wings unfurled themselves and acted as a shield for the skeleton soldiers, mages, cavalry and so on. There was a skeleton for every combat occupation.
[Misu LVL 900 Undead Queen]
"Let's test out how well you can handle these guys." Misu said as she cracked her knuckles.

Leaving Misu's agency, Shiro started to make her way towards the military section where the mech pilots were training. She had already reapplied her camouflage so the residents wouldn't be surprised to see her walking around with Iris.
"You mentioned that everything here was made by you right?" Iris asked as Shiro glanced back and nodded her head.
"Yep, why do you ask?"
"Nothing much, just surprised at how much mana you would have needed to do this. Also, how many strong people do you have in this city? I've discovered several spikes of mana that's much bigger than normal. Some are in close proximity so they've melded together, making it hard to see how many people are there." Iris said as Shiro nodded her head.
"Ah you're probably sensing Madison and the others. I wonder if you can sense the primal demons." Shiro muttered, causing Iris to pause.
"The primal what now?"
"I do apologise about my lack of welcome. I did not sense you until you allowed me to discover your aura, your highness." A voice rang out as a portal opened in front of them.
"Lucifer." Shiro greeted whereas Iris felt her entire body freeze up.
[Lucifer LVL 1000 Ancient Lord of Pride (Divinity 2)]
"How's Madison?" Shiro asked as Lucifer kneeled down.
Since they serve Madison and know that Shiro was stronger, he was going to show the same amount of respect for this woman as he would with Madison.
Though if people were to ask him about his allegiance, he would say Madison.
"Her highness has been progressing well in trying to understand more of her Divinity. Progress is a little slow but it'll speed up once the world has finished its transformation." Lucifer replied as Shiro nodded her head.
"Also, if you do not mind me asking, how come your friend wields the power of Odin? Well I say wield but it's more like they have the power but can't use it." Lucifer asked while looking at Iris.
"So you sensed it too, it's something to do with her eyes but I'm still in the process of helping her out. You don't need to concern yourself too much. For now you can go back to what you were doing earlier, I'll look for the seven of you later since I have something to ask of you." Shiro waved her hand as Lucifer nodded.
"Very well, I shall await your arrival with the rest of the Ancient Lords." Lucifer nodded as he disappeared with a swirl of flames.
"So as I was saying, my friend came from a Demon Lineage of a God and she managed to clear a test that allowed her to have the Seven Ancient Demons as her subordinates. Asmodeus, Lucifer, Belphegor, Mammon, Beelzebub, Satan and Leviathan. They're all a match for most Gods whereas Madison is a Demi god." Shiro explained as Iris felt like her brain just exploded.
"It shouldn't be anything too crazy though." Shiro shrugged.
'What's more crazy than this????' Iris thought to herself while Shiro led them towards the Mech Bay.
Sensing the outline of the mechs, Iris was surprised that technology like this even existed.
Following Shiro through the different sectors of the Mech Bay, they eventually arrived at where Shiina was training all of the Specialised Pilots.
Dismissing her disguise, Shiro waved.
"Yo, it's been a while." Shiro grinned.
"Ah your highness! Welcome back." Shiina widened her eyes and quickly kneeled along with all the other pilots.
"Thank you, I got a task for you if you don't mind helping me out."
"Of course, what do you require of me?" Shiina nodded.
"I want you to help me train Iris for a bit. As a support orientated adventurer like her, she needs to be able to keep herself safe while a support mage is trying to kill her on the battlefield. I just need you to train her until she is proficient in keeping herself safe. Plus, you can also train yourself in trying to catch a support mage. They should usually be your first target during a fight." Shiro smiled as Shiina nodded.
"I'll come every so often to check up on your eyes and contact you when I've obtained enough information on the group that did this to you and Nine." Shiro smiled as she turned to Iris.
"Mn, thank you." Iris bowed as Shiro nodded and left the area.
Stretching her body, she yawned and wondered what else everyone was doing.
Closing her eyes, Shiro could sense Khionah playing games next to Revel.
"Seems like she found out who kept obstructing her. Seeing her expression, she is probably angry while Revel is having the time of his life with a shit eating grin."
Shaking her head, Shiro made her way back to the main tower.
