Nanomancer Reborn - I've Become A Snow Girl?

As she finished her anchor, she wasn't surprised to see that she couldn't store it away as it refused to enter her inventory. Even if she cleared out everything she had to make room for it, there was something blocking it.

After all, it would be rather unfair to carry the anchor around in an untargetable space.

However, she was already lucky in that she could move the anchor around on her floating city so she couldn't complain much.

Making a platform for the anchor so that she could move it around for now, Shiro cracked her neck and yawned.

"Uff… I haven't worked for 24 hours in a row for quite a while now. I need a shower." Shiro muttered with a frown.

Waving her hand, she created a small house by the side with her nanobots for now and took a shower. Making a bit of food with the stuff left in her inventory, Shiro finished off with a cup of juice.

Sitting in her house made out of nanobots, Shiro decided to sleep for a bit.

Watching all of this, Nimue's smile twitched as she had just seen Shiro create a house, have a shower, eat some food and even sleep in comfort despite being in a place they don't know much about.

But the fact that she was even able to accomplish it with her nanobots was what shocked her the most as it was way too handy!

Who the hell just casually creates a house with all the appliances ready!???

But compared to the other things that she had done, this was nothing. Her main anger was that she had actually tampered with the anchor and it was successful thanks to the nature of Divine Energy.

Taking a few deep breaths to calm herself, Nimue sighed and decided to rest herself.

There was no point in getting annoyed since Shiro would just relapse. After all, despite wanting to do the anchor properly, she decided that a coin toss would be a great way to determine what she should do rather than logically assess the situation.

Seeing Nimue give up, for the N'th time today, Attie decided to walk up to her and pull her shirt.

"Don't be sad. Mum is like that." Attie called out as Nimue smiled softly and patted his head.

"Don't worry, I know what your mum is like. I've been with her for a while now." Nimue said while picking him up.

"But your mum seems to not care about my mental health so she keeps trying crazy stuff like this." Nimue shook her head.

"But it was good wasn't it? If mum did things like everyone else, she wouldn't be mum." Attie tilted his head as Nimue paused at his logic.

He was correct, if Shiro had done things like everyone else, she would just be one in the masses rather than becoming a Demi God. She would have become cannon fodder to put it bluntly and maybe it's her desire to not be controlled which led her to a path where she would try things that are out of the norm.

Even her attack towards a certain weak point wasn't seen often by fighters as it is rather crude.

But if Shiro didn't try these out of the norm options, she would just be a common mage.

"You're right, if your mum didn't do crazy things, she wouldn't be your mum. She wouldn't have found me, Iziuel or you." Nimue chuckled as Attie nodded his head.

Bringing him back to Iziuel, Nimue couldn't help but feel as though both the mother son pair were therapists or something. Shiro got rid of Nan Tian's worries while Attie got rid of her worries.

She would say that she's reached enlightenment and not care anymore but that was bullsh*t. If Shiro performs more crazy acts, she's still going to want to flip the entire mana realm upside down. Asking Shiro to behave herself was impossible.

While Nimue brought Attie back to Iziuel, Shiro was currently sleeping soundlessly as she was rather exhausted from crafting the Anchor. But despite her tiredness, she was still keeping herself in a light sleep just in case danger comes her way.

After resting for 4 to 5 hours, Shiro sat up and stretched her body.

Feeling rather refreshed, Shiro could sense that Nan Tian and Isilia were coming back hence why she cut her rest to around 4 hours or so.

Opening the door to her house, she could see the two walking towards the peak and gave them a small wave.

"I didn't expect you to build a house." Nan Tian chuckled as Shiro shrugged.

"Well after I finished making the anchor there, I needed a rest so I made myself a house." Shiro smiled while gesturing at the anchor that was being protected by her nanobots right now.

"That's just like you haha. Anyways, we've found something quite interesting if you want to check it out with us. We haven't explored deeply just yet since it's been more than a day but if we can find a safe place to put the anchor, the three of us can have a look at this place that we found inside the mountain." Isilia smiled.

"Oh? Hm sure, let me just camouflage the anchor."

Waving her hand, nanobots started to thread together as the anchor was soon hidden from sight. Snapping her finger, the nanobots turned invisible along with the anchor so that it seemed like the peak of the mountain was empty except for the house.

"Do you two want to rest for a bit first before we go?" Shiro asked.

"It's fine, we've already taken a long rest on the way here." Nan Tian smiled.

"Fair enough. Let me get rid of the house then." Shiro nodded since she kept the house just in case the two needed more time to rest.

Snapping her finger, the house crumbled down and disappeared.

"Let's go." Shiro smiled.

Making their way down the mountain, they showed Shiro where they had found the cave entrance.

Immediately noticing the spike up in mana density, Shiro raised her eyebrows.

"I got three vials of the mana on the walls so that you can see if there is anything special with them." Nan Tian said, handing her three vials.

Looking at the vials, it reminded Shiro of the mana potions but it was much clearer. It was coloured a clear light blue which flickered with a silver light.

Swirling it slightly, she couldn't see any changes.

Tracing her fingers along the wall, she looked at the liquified mana on her fingers and furrowed her brows.

"Hmm… Let me give it a scan while we're making our way through the cave then."

Snapping her fingers, nanobots appeared around her and formed a belt with a box on the side. Placing the vials into the box, she started to analyse them as they made their way through the caves.

With the liquid mana on the wall, the cave was strangely lit as there was no need for any sources of light.

There were several twists and turns but Nan Tian and Isilia led the way so that they didn't waste any time.

The further they progressed, the stranger things became. Broken pieces of the cave would float around as if gravity didn't affect them.

Faint illusionary pink tethers would stretch between rocks which would sway to the wind.

Orbs of light would magnetise towards one another before shattering apart into more orbs once they collide.

As for the vials that Nan Tian had given her, it was actually natural mana potions that were 100% pure, had no impurities and would increase your mana capacity slightly every time you used it. Plus, it would also regenerate your mana back to full upon use. While the increase to the capacity was helpful, it was rather useless for Shiro, Nan Tian and Isilia since their mana capacity was huge already.

However, what was helpful was that it refilled your mana back to full. For Shiro, who's attacks cost large percentages, this would be extremely helpful as fights at their level are very fast paced. She couldn't wait a whole minute before casting the next spell or else she could die so the fact that she could drink potions that refilled her mana back to full with no backlash was handy.

So while they were progressing through the caves, Shiro already had her nanobots harvest the mana into vials so that she could use them later.
