Chapter 872 Aiming for 500
"Of course I’m only somewhat talented in your eyes. Fine, give me a shout when the refuge is finished or something. I’ll grab my parents and sister if that’s fine. I know that a good refuge will be rare and that space is limited so the fact that you’ve even extended this offer to me is a surprise in itself." Grangel smiled.
"Sure, I don’t mind you bringing your family. As for the rest of you... Hmm... we’ll see how it goes. It’s selfish of me but I’m prioritising those that cherish first, then extras such as you who have gained my acknowledgement. Once the new age begins and you happen to find my city then I shall welcome you if there is space." Shiro smiled before disappearing into a portal.
{Even though the city could expand to the size of a small country, you still only told them it’s half done huh?} Nimue smiled.
’Pft of course. I’m not running a charity here. I’m prioritising my close ones then my own race. Anyone else comes after. With spirits, elfs and demons there, getting too many humans in the mix right now would only cause unnecessary tension. There will be humans who have grudges against demons and vice versa. Once Madison wakes up, she’ll control the demon race and have them forget the grudge against humans because we’ll be working closely together. Conflict would only hinder that. We might need to make a few examples but that’s fine too. The new age is harsh so we can’t be soft in our methods.’ Shiro shrugged.
’Of course, I’m not saying that we should govern with fear and an iron fist but we shouldn’t be like cotton and do nothing while conflict breaks out in the city. If people disrespect the rules that I set down, they will be punished as such.’ She followed up as Nimue nodded her head in agreement.
{Perhaps it’s better to set up districts for now so that they can get used to each other’s presences before merging them together. Even if it’s the queen commanding them, it would be hard to forget the centuries of hatred that have been built up over the generations. The hatred of the parents is passed onto the children and the cycle continues. We cannot force them to get along with each other as the pressure would cause a civil war to break out immediately. We can settle it using power but the goal of this city would be forgotten.} Estrella spoke up as Shiro gave her two thumbs ups.
’Exactly. There will be districts that will merge all of the races together but I’ll be adding smaller platforms where the majority of the race will be gathered. There will be no stupid rule such as no humans allowed or no demons allowed but if they provoke the other race on purpose then they will be punished. Though I feel like I can already imagine children being the main cause as they’re ignorant of the dangers. Casually provoking demons because they have red skin or horns, harming them because demons killed their parents or whatever. Children don’t understand the severity so their guts are higher than the heavens themselves. Sometimes kids like this really piss me off because that’s just the nature of children.’ Shiro sighed heavily since she needed to make sure the children didn’t spark a civil war either.
’Though my Attie is better than little children who don’t think before they do something. Aren’t you?’ Shiro smiled while picking up Attie.
{Mn.} Nodding his head, Attie hugged Shiro.
{So what now?} Nimue asked as Shiro had finished dealing with the Guardian as well as Verron. Setting aside the 60+ gods that she has now pissed off, there were still more things they needed to deal with as quickly as possible before the new age arrived.
’Hmm... I’ve already got Nan Tian helping everyone else move to the city so I can have some time to myself. After killing the guardian, don’t you think it’s about time that I do some dungeon clearing and get myself to level 500? Once I get to level 500, I’ll be able to attempt to reach tier 6 like I did in my last life. Only this time, I’ll be much much stronger.’ Shiro grinned as Nimue shrugged her shoulder.
{But I don’t think there are many dungeons that can help you get to level 500 quickly. Even with all of your passives that reduce exp needed, double exp gain and so on, you should still need quite a while to reach level 500 with the dungeons that are around.} Nimue reminded since high level dungeons are rare.
’I know but there are more methods to levelling up than just killing things. Nimue, let me ask you, why do you not have a level when Estrella does? Is it because you’re classified as an item that’s bound to me because of the lake? If so, why are there spirits in the city without levels as well.’ Shiro asked with a smile as Nimue paused.
Neither her nor Iziuel had levels but their power could be estimated to be in the high end of tier 5 while Estrella has level 500 next to her name, proving her strength.
’I believe it’s because of how you decided to strengthen yourself in the end. Rather than kill, you continued to provide me support through the mana realm while Iziuel was helping the world tree. Estrella on the other hand decided to kill things constantly for exp. Of course, I’m not saying that I’ll suddenly sit down and cultivate like Nan Tian does.’ Shiro laughed since monotonous things like cultivating would bore her out her mind. She wasn’t the type to sit down and do nothing for months without care since there is the problem of hygiene.
What about bathing! Eating! Drinking juice!
There were so many things that she could be doing while cultivating, it just didn’t fit her nature as a person.
{So if you’re not planning to cultivate what are you planning?} Nimue asked as she was a little confused by what Shiro was suggesting.
’Pft if I knew I would have said so from the beginning. I was just saying that there were more ways to level up than one so I should probably go look for more efficient solutions.’ Shiro smiled as she couldn’t help but find it rather amusing to mess around with Nimue.
Looking at her face that was glaring at her with annoyance, Shiro giggled softly as Nimue sighed.
{I don’t have a real physical body but if I did I would have busted a vein.} Nimue said while sweeping her bangs out of the way of her eyes.
{Che, why do you even like keeping your bangs that long anyway? It’s ticklish and it gets in the way of your sight. Plus, it might even poke your eye by accident.} Nimue complained. After evolving, her hair had grown slightly longer and she found herself frequently needing to sweep her hair to the side.
’I think it’s ok though. Plus, it helps me hide where I’m looking during a fight, they won’t be able to see my eyes while I can see through my hair using analysis. Of course, I also think it looks nice that’s why. Long hair is a pain sometimes but it looks good no?’ Shiro smiled while messing around with her hair.
Curling it around her fingers, she blew up and watched as her white hair fluttered ever so slightly.
{I didn’t take you for one that worried about beauty.} Nimue raised her eyebrow. If Shiro cared about outward appearance, she wouldn’t have exposed her habit of piercing asses back in New York in public.
’I’m still a girl ok. Who doesn’t want to look nice.’ Shiro pouted. As battle crazy as she was, she still enjoyed cute things in life like big assed plushies that she could just dive into and nice clothes.
{Where’s the girl? All I see is a pain in my ass.} Nimue clicked her tongue.
’I can make that a reality.’ Shiro said while summoning an ice spike.
{No r18 things in front of little Attie.} Nimue said with a victorious grin while skipping to the island where Iziuel and Attie were playing around.
Shattering the ice in her hand, Shiro sighed and focused her mind back on reality since she needed to reach level 500 in less than a month’s time.
