Nanomancer Reborn - I've Become A Snow Girl?

Reading the skill, Shiro furrowed her brows since it meant that both Grace and this skill shared the same charges. If she was to use Requiem of the Goddess, both Grace and Protection of the Goddess would be unusable.

However, right now, this skill was more efficient compared to Grace, even if it was limited to 10 cities right now.

Just as she tried to move, blood rushed up her throat as she noticed a large wound open up on her stomach.

Furrowing her brows, she quickly healed herself.

Seeing the countless wounds appearing on her body while her HP decreased past her recovery speed, Shiro furrowed her brows.

Spitting out some blood, she took a deep breath and calmed herself down.

'I can mark down 9 more cities. Right now, the levels of the cities are changing with powerful monsters appearing all over the place. So I should prioritise the higher level-'

Her thoughts were cut off when she felt a large force crash into her body.

Gritting her teeth, she glanced down at the city and saw that a kid threw himself in front of a monster to save their friends.

While the thought was good, all of them got hit so the damage was transferred to her.

Seeing that they didn't suffer any damage, the kids continued to run into the monster.

Nimue was infuriated but seeing that Shiro didn't do anything, Nimue stayed silent.

Holding her arm that was being torn apart and healed, Shiro shook her head.

'I suppose it makes sense for this skill to be so 'cheap' in terms of cost. Any pain and backlash will be transferred to me regardless of the intensity.' Shiro thought to herself.

She was grateful for the skill shared burden since the damage was transferred equally with all the citizens so they barely felt a thing.

Had it not been for this skill, her HP would have been emptied out so long ago.

Barely making her way back to Asharia, she had it move toward the next city was more mechs were being deployed.

Activating a second barrier, the number of injuries that Shiro suffered was increasing with every second.

[Shiro you should stop.] Nimue frowned since what Shiro was doing was nothing short of self-destructive. If she continued, the damage that she sustains would exceed her healing.

'It's fine. Hopefully they would understand that they don't need to fight. Just run, the mechs will deal with the monsters.' Shiro replied with a shake of her head.

After placing down the third barrier, the injuries prevented Shiro from moving easily as her flesh would be torn apart.

Taking deep breaths, Shiro wondered what else she could do to reduce the casualties. If it was before, she would have ignored the deaths and focused on killing the monsters.

Shaking her head, she forced herself to stand up.

Just as she did this, a green aura wrapped around her body as the pain faded away for a moment.

Raising her eyebrows, she glanced towards the city and saw Silvia standing there with a forced smile.

"Sorry it took so long. I've gotten used to healing with this headache now." Silvia forced out as she slammed her staff down. Damage reduction buffs and healing buffs appeared around Shiro as she regained proper control of her body.

"If it wasn't for Nan Tian telling me that you're destroying your body, I wouldn't have even known that you used such a destructive method." Silvia shook her head.

"Is that so." Shiro chuckled.

"Mn, he knew that you were determined so the best thing we could do is provide you with as much healing as we can. We can't make a barrier that stops them from dying but what we can do is heal you like crazy so that you don't even feel the pain." Silvia smiled confidently as countless magic circles appeared in the city. They ranged from as low as tier 2 all the way to tier 5. All of them were healing spells that were dedicated to Shiro and if they ran out of mana, they had the full restore potion that could be bought from the shops.

Looking at the city, Shiro couldn't help but feel happy that her efforts weren't for nought.

"Let's save as many cities as we can then. I only have 10 barriers that last 2 hours and three of them have already been used up. However, I don't believe that I can't make stronger healing spells with your help." Shiro smiled confidently as she had the support of the city on her back.

As Shiro was placing down barriers in different cities, Nan Tian decided to stream everything to the world. He knew that people were challenging monsters thinking that gods were on their side but this was actually the work of a single girl that didn't want them to die.

She was ok with damaging her body as long as it gave them an opportunity to run.

Seeing the kids and adults 'die' without regard for the damage infuriated Nan Tian as they were indirectly harming Shiro. However, if she wanted to help them, he'd help her by showing these ignorant fools the truth. He would broadcast the figure of Shiro placing down barriers and sustaining all of the damage they took in their stead.

They will know the sacrifices she had to suffer because of them.

'Take a good look. This is the woman I love, she is even willing to sacrifice her body for you even though she wanted to prioritise her close ones first. Her city is safe so her next focus was not her but you!' Nan Tian thought while sending information to the entire world on how they can stay safe and avoid the monsters. Maps were shown and birds eye view of the world was broadcasted.

There wasn't much Nan Tian could do but he was going to try his best in reducing the damage Shiro took!

Looking at the sight of the current ruler on the screen, I was silent in awe. Despite the fear that I felt from her on the first day, I knew that she was kind. For her to sacrifice her body to the extent that she could barely move, I was shocked beyond belief.

I had never seen someone this selfless while in the demon continent and the sight of such a person made me want to support her with all I've got. I can understand why the Queen allied herself with such a person.

"Felsha, everything is ready."

A demon walked up to me and kneeled. Since I was one of the retainers, I had a great amount of respect within the community of demons. In terms of interest, they were more with me than Asphil but right now all the demons were convinced of the ruler's character. Even for war mongers like us, we knew she was to be respected.

The act of self sacrifice required more courage than standing on the front lines.

"Listen up! We were given a safe spot in this city and guaranteed equal treatment by the Queen of Spirits! Despite humans having grudges and killing intent towards us, she was not biased as the ruler! She continued to protect us and treat us without any prejudice. Even now, she is burning her life up for the sake of everyone else! Do you want to see such a ruler die in front of us! Does your pride as a demon allow this!" I shouted out as I can see all the demons that have gathered here today wanted to help the young ruler.

"NO!" They shouted out in unison and I couldn't help but smile at the ridiculousness of the situation. If it was before, I probably won't say this. However, times have changed. Despite the bad blood between humans and demons, we were not so different.

"Then let us go down and help the humans! Evacuate them from the broken cities and prevent any more injuries! We're demons! Our physiques are stronger! What they can't handle, we'll handle in their place!"

*URAHHH!!!

Spreading our wings, we jumped off the side of Asharia in order to help the demons.

"Well said, as the Queen, I can't be idle during this." A voice rang out beside me as I felt a chill down my spine.

The queen of us demons stood next to me, the one who had instilled such fear into us was smiling kindly.

"Thank you for doing my job for me. I was wondering about how I would help my friend but since you have already solved it for me, all I need to do is give them a push." The Queen smiled as she raised her hand.

Her aura burst forth as power surged in my body.

"Under the orders of the Demon Queen, all Demons shall help the humans evacuate!" The Queen shouted out before charging into battle herself. An army of shadow demons appeared behind her as she led the charge to the cities.

Clenching my fist, a smile appeared on my face as I activated my berserk skills and followed after her.
