Nanomancer Reborn - I've Become A Snow Girl?

Shiro didn't know whether or not she should be grateful that Aria has lost her mind since the fight will become easier to predict. However, now that she's lost her mind, she doesn't care about the consequences of her actions upon the realms.

At least when they were fighting earlier, Aria didn't drag others into the fight.

Taking a deep breath, Shiro forced herself to calm down.

'I need to watch out for her singularity attacks as well as the trumpets. From my estimations, it should be something similar to the seven trumpets of the apocalypse. Meaning there are only two trumpets left.' Shiro thought to herself while dodging Aria's attacks.

Retaliating with her own rail cannons, she frowned when Aria shrugged them off like it was nothing.

'I need something that can hurt her for good… But my strongest attack only served to strengthen her. Why? What did she resonate with that allowed her to fuse with the singularity?'

Gritting her teeth, Shiro tried her best to dodge the singularity attacks as they appeared in an instant, there was almost no time to dodge and the wounds were piling up even with her regeneration and healing.

She tried to activate Error but the realm was unstable, it was as though her previous attack had completely separated the space they were in from the world they knew. The system had no influence here nor were there any 'codes' for her to use.

'Guess I need to go back to my old tricks. I need to set up a small 'domain' that will let me sense where the singularities appear so I can dodge them. Then I need to analyse the weaknesses of Aria's new body and see what takes effect.'

Jumping up, Shiro gathered her mana into her hand and sent out a shockwave.

A myriad of runes and arrays appeared around the walls of this space as an influx of information flooded Shiro's mind.

With these runes, she'll be able to perceive the battle from all around them. Every single attack, every single shift in mana will be visible. But this wasn't enough.

Just 'seeing' this wouldn't let her dodge Aria's attacks. She needed instantaneous capture of the entire battlefield every moment to see the exact moment a singularity starts to form.

Firing thousands of invisible strands of mana from each array, Shiro started to map out the entire battlefield in her mind. A real time simulated fight appeared in her mind that overlapped what she was seeing.

'I need more, the amount of mana strands isn't enough to capture even the smallest change.' Shiro frowned as she was still unable to pick up the exact moment the orbs appeared. She needed the strands to be smaller than her nanobots and fill every gap within this realm.

Flipping over one of the tendrils that tried to grab her, Shiro continued to plant mana strands across the battlefield.

However, her anxiety continued to grow seeing the reflections of worlds within Aria's chest.

'Even if I start to dodge, I don't have anything to damage her.'

Flicking her wrist, several blades appeared around her as she sent them piercing towards Aria while being amplified by mana arrays. Each blade had been imbued with a different element that she had attunement towards but none of them managed to damage Aria with the exception of Error and her nanobots. But even with Error and the Nanobots being able to damage Aria, her wounds healed up in a blink of an eye.

'What part of Error and my Nanobots damage her? If I can figure out the fundamentals of what is actually harming her I can use that to make something new.' Shiro thought while biting her lip.

Refining her senses to their limit, Shiro weaved through the barrage of attacks while adjusting her nanobots. She would change them ever so slightly and see the effectiveness against Aria while making notes in her mind.

*CRACK!

Hearing the sound of glass shattering, Shiro glanced towards Aria and noticed one of the reflections of the worlds broke apart and disappeared.

Widening her eyes, she watched as Aria's form became more monstrous as an entire world surrendered to her might.

'This cannot go on.' Shiro narrowed her eyes as she took a deep breath. She doesn't have enough information to work with right now but she completed her new 'domain', one that would allow her to see everything within this battlefield.

Closing her eyes, Shiro ignored the myriad of tendrils and singularities appearing near her.

Even with her eyes closed, the world was clear to her. Every tiny detail, every breath, every movement even down to the smallest scale could now be observed by her.

With the speed of which she could analyse the information in her mind, the world may as well be frozen in time.

*BANG!!!!

As all of Aria's attacks collided, Shiro was nowhere to be seen.

Despite her madness and monstrous form, Aria instinctively felt fear. For the first time in this fight, she had lost track of where Shiro was. In a panic, she launched a net of attacks all around her, destroying everything on sight.

Within the web of destruction, a single shadow could be seen flickering at blinding speeds through the gaps.

"I can see everything you try to do." Shiro declared with a cold voice.

The attacks were phasing through her body as though she was a ghost, causing Aria to let out a cry while trying to create some distance between the two of them. But with her body being submerged in the original singularity that Shiro had created, she had nowhere to run.

'It's still incomplete but it should be enough to deal with her.' Shiro thought with narrowed eyes.

Gathering energy into her hands, the world of darkness that they were in started to be filled with a blinding light.

The reason why Error and her Nanobots worked was due to their properties of being able to break down the fabric of reality. The system was a foreign entity to begin with. When she attacked Aria with Error and her Nanobots, it's akin to injecting a virus within Aria's body allowing her to be 'studied and noted down' as information. Thus erasing it becomes a possibility.

By combining both Error and Nanobots at a fundamental level along with her understanding of the system, Shiro is able to achieve the impossible. In her hands, she now possessed the power to comprehend then destroy.

Gathering all of her strength into her right arm, crimson circuits twisted with the bolt of energy as Shiro mustered all of her strength, throwing the bolt as hard as she possibly could. Her muscle and bones cracked under the pressure as the bolt phased through the space between them.

Wherever the bolt touched, lines upon lines of code started to spread like an infection.

Aria was unable to make a single sound as the bolt exploded in her body, erupting with a cluster of circuits that tore through her flesh. Any attempts to dig out the codes were futile as the core of her being had already been recorded.

Codes tattooed through Aria's body as they served as chains, restricting her movements.

Hovering in the sky, Shiro stared at Aria coldly as information flooded her mind. Now that the codes have been planted, destroying them was as simple as a wave of her finger.

Unbeknownst to Shiro, the moment she had opened her new 'domain' ***** stood up as flames of passion ignited in her eyes.

"She did it! The all-seeing eyes! She's achieved the first step!" ***** howled in laughter while watching in anticipation. There was only one more thing that Shiro needed to achieve before her dream could be achieved at long last.

"Only one step… one last step!" She muttered whilst on the verge of begging. She so desperately wanted Shiro to achieve the last step. Her expectations only grew seeing Shiro gather the final attack but it wasn't enough. She couldn't let it end like this, if she allowed Shiro to stop here she'll never achieve her dream.

"Your role isn't over yet!" ***** Grinned as a psychotic light filled her eyes.

Within the fractured God Realm, the space was forcefully torn apart as Shiro looked up in shock.

A pair of skeletal claws plunged into Aria's chest as black goo crawled into her body.

"More! Burn everything if you have to! That is your only purpose!" ***** Shouted out from within her realm. Her face flushed with anticipation as she could hardly contain herself anymore.

Aria's body started to crack apart as two trumpets were forcefully extracted from within. Activating the trumpets, ***** forced Aria to mutate further while Shiro was stunned by what she was witnessing.

With the bolt still within Aria, Shiro was able to get a glance into the source of the skeletal hands but that only left her in bewilderment.

Her shock was short lasting as she couldn't afford to stand around. Gathering her strength, she infused herself with as much mana as she could. Now that Aria's achieved the seventh trumpet forcefully through the third party, she was burning through her life force at blistering speeds.

From the codes, Shiro could see that 'Aria's' goal has changed. In her mind, there was no longer the desire to seal. Only the command issued by *****.

Kill.
