Nanomancer Reborn - I've Become A Snow Girl? Chapter 322

*BOOM!!!!

Kneeling down in defeat, Galia's body crumbled to ash's as the party huffed in fatigue.

"God damn I didn't think he'd try to use the party wipe skill so much near the end." Madison cried out while sitting down.

"Well he was close to death so it's only natural." Shiro smiled. Compared to others, she was relatively unharmed. Understanding that this was due to her passive skill, she couldn't help but feel grateful for stealing the key.

'That being said, I did technically take away Keomi's chance at an upgrade.' Shiro thought to herself.

Shaking her head, she walked up to the boss's corpse and collected the loot.

Suddenly, a ray of light shot up into the sky as a blanket of weapons, armour and different items fell onto the ground.

"Ah?" Raising her eyebrows in confusion, Shiro looked at the glistening piles of loot with confusion.

"Um… girls, do you know what just happened?" She asked with confusion. Even back in her first life, she had never seen such a phenomenon.

"I have no idea." Madison shrugged.

"Hmm… Isn't this amount of loot a little big for just a single boss?" Lyrica asked.

"True." Shiro nodded. She wasn't going to tell them about her title just yet since Aarim and Chen Yu were here.

While Chen Yu seems to be developing something together with Silvia, there was still the possibility that he'd tell Nan Tian about this information.

As for Aarim, well, Shiro naturally didn't miss all those times that Aarim had looked at her with suspicion so she'll withhold some of the information for now.

"Either way, I say this is good for us." Shiro chuckled and started to collect the loot.

Unfortunately, the equipment was all level 70 so they were essentially useless to her. But, for the rest of the party, they were amazing pieces of equipment since they're all graded at Purple.

After sorting out the loot, Shiro distributed them among the party. While they couldn't equip it just yet, it would help them when they reach level 70.

As for the materials, Shiro kept a few of the better ones since she may need them in order for Helion to upgrade her armour.

"The second boss should be coming soon. Everyone try to heal up as much as you can without using too much mana." She called out while setting up a few traps around the area. These traps would send out her ice chains when triggers so it should help her restrain the second boss, making the fight easier.

*BOOM!!!!!

Just as she finished warning the party, the surface of the surrounding seas exploded to reveal a giant siren.

She had long turquoise hair, a slightly pale skin that seemed to have scales around the arms and the neck. Her body slowly transitioned into that of a fish roughly around the waist area. Peeling apart as if it was imitating a dress, a little of her cleavage could be seen.

"Hmm… I'd rate her beauty an 8 out of 10?" Shiro muttered since sirens were known to be seductresses.

"An 8 out of 10? I'd say she's less than 3." Lyrica criticized. If Shiro was a 10, there was no way that the siren would be anywhere close in her opinion.

"No no you're both wrong. She's a dead out of 10." Madison grinned while readying her shield.

Activating her taunt skills, she was about to draw aggro when the Siren suddenly opened her mouth.

"AHHHHHH!!!!!!"

A sonic wave shot out and disorientated the entire party.

Gritting her teeth, Shiro focused her mind and looked back at the party. Whenever the Siren uses the call, a party member would be brainwashed so Shiro needed to knock the senses back into them as soon as possible.

Noticing a small change in Chen Yu's aura, Shiro flickered towards him and roundhouse kicked him in the chest.

"GAH!!!" Crying out in pain, Chen Yu's body flew back and crashed into a wall.

"You ok now?" Shiro asked.

"Other than the fact that I had the force of god slam into my chest, yes. Yes I'm fine!" Chen Yu replied while clutching his chest. Propping his body up with some difficulty, Chen Yu stumbled onto his feet as Silvia quickly healed him up.

"Thanks."

Now that Chen Yu was healed back up, the party turned their focus back to the boss.

Clutching her hand into a fist, Shiro activated the traps that she had set.

*KRRRR!!!!

Crashing through the city, giant chains wrapped around the Siren's body, restraining all of her movements while also digging into her body. This caused blue blood to flow out of her wounds as she cried out in pain.

"Madi!" Shiro shouted out while sending Madison flying into the air with a giant ice pillar.

"Got it!" Madison replied while twisting her body in mid air. Using avatar once more, she slammed her giant shield into the now restrained Siren.

*KSHHHH!!!!!!

Waves tumbled from the force.

Gritting her teeth, the siren raised her hand and shot a torrent of water towards Madison.

Blocking it with her shield, Madison cast a few more skills to secure her aggro.

"I've got it! Hit it with everything!" She shouted out.

*BOOM!!!!!

Before she could finish her sentence, Shiro had already sent thunder bolts flying towards the boss. With her Celestial Raiment set to the lightning element, her electric attacks were basically supercharged to deal more damage.

Her silver blond hair fluttered in the wind as she wasn't finished. The thunderbolts were just a taster.

"Ssss….." breathing out slowly between her teeth, lightning flickered off her body and into the ground.

A giant multi layered tier 3 magic circle expanded out from under her feet.

What she was attempting to do was essentially a lightning version of Boreas' Lance. Since her control over mana was many times better than the average adventurer, converting the base element of the lance should be within her reach.

"Smite!" Shiro commanded as she slammed her hand downwards.

Dark clouds gathered while flickers of lightning could be seen in-between.

*BOOM!!!!!!

With a loud crash of thunder, light filled the party's vision. Once the light cleared, they saw the seared scales of the Siren.

'Tch, the effect is a little different than what I expected.' Shiro frowned.

While it didn't continuously paralyse the boss like she had expected, at least she had stunned the Siren for a short period of time. This relieved some of Madison's pressure so that she could take a short moment to catch her breath.

Repeating the process of stunning the boss and dealing damage, the party managed to whittle down her HP at a constant pace. Whenever someone was brainwashed, Shiro would take care of it and knock the sense back into them.

Half way through the fight, the Siren screamed once more as the party focused to see who was the brainwashed one.

But when they noticed a lack of reaction from Shiro, a bad feeling appeared in their hearts.

"Oh sh*t…" Madison muttered.

Before anyone could react, Shiro flickered behind Aarim with her sword drawn.

"Crap! Shield her!" Lisandra shouted out since this was the worst case scenario.

Now that Shiro was the one that was brainwashed, they should give up on the notion of hitting her. They were familiar with her skill Rift Walker after all.

Quickly shielding Aarim, the party rushed towards Shiro while Silvia prepared a cleanse spell.

*PING!

Breaking apart the shield with her sword, Shiro was about to stab Aarim when Yin appeared before her. Using the Rift Walker skill, Yin dragged Shiro into the rift.

"Haaaa!!!" Breathing out a mouthful of air, Aarim panted since Shiro's killing intent had forcefully stopped her from breathing.

However, before Silvia could even finish setting up her skill, Yin's body was flung out of the rift with quite a few sword wounds on her body.

"God damn it! I never realised that mum was holding back so much in our training!" Yin complained while getting back on her feet.

During her time in the rift, it only took an instant for wounds to appear on her body. She could barely react to Shiro's attacks as they targeted her blind spots.

"Silvi! Is the skill ready?!" Lisandra asked while setting up a barrier around them. Shiro could appear at any moment so they needed to be ready.

"No need. I've managed to break the spell already." Shiro said as she appeared with blood flowing out of her mouth.

When she was brainwashed, she noticed that it was akin to spectating everything you did through a TV. She wasn't able to move her body at all.

"How?" Silvia asked in confusion.

"I punched a hole in my stomach before leaving the rift." Shiro replied nonchalantly while looking over at Madison.

"If you're done getting yourself out of the brainwash, help me do more damage!" Madison shouted out while trying her best to parry the boss's attacks.

Nodding her head, Shiro gestured for the party to assist Madison. Since the party was used to Shiro's self abusive methods, they weren't too shocked to find that she had punched a hole to get out of the spell.

With Shiro being able to get herself out of the skill as long as the party survives for the first few moments, they were able to bring down the boss without too many problems.
