Bringing Asharia through the rift, Shiro watched as the fabric of reality twisted and turned to make space for such a large city.
Imdiately blocking the sky, the shadow of Asharia lood over the North Pole.
Those that were in the research base looked around in confusion before staring up at the sky with widened eyes.
With Asharia now at the North Pole, Shiro started to send out commands for ch units to be on standby while the main party mbers gathered at the teleport hall.
"Let's see… Where's dad and sis?" Shiro asked as she did a head count of the people that will be joining them for this short expedition.
"Oh they're out clearing a city that belongs to a Queen. There's been quite a lot of human trafficking recorded near that area and it doesn't seem like the Queen has co into contact with one of the gods. Therefore, they decided to take this ti for so training. I doubt they'll be back soon but I assu they'll be here once the transition of ages has finished." Aarim inford as Shiro paused before nodding her head.
"Well what about Yin, Attie and Lisandra? I figured that they're probably sorting sothing out but it's been a while since I saw them. I don't sense them on Asharia either." Shiro asked curiously as quite a few of the party mbers seed to be rather busy.
"Oh the bird and the angel? Yeah the little bird was worried for her little sister so the two of them started a little journey. Sothing about churches, angels, light and so on. I happened to hear a part of their conversation before they left." Syradil yawned while chewing on a spicy at skewer that she had bought on the way here.
"Hm alright, if they are in danger I should sense it too since I have a link to them. Right now nothing's happened so it should be fine." Shiro scratched her head.
Even though there were a lot of mbers missing, this line up of adventurers was still sothing to behold.
Excluding her, the party mbers are Nan Tian, Madison, Silvia, Aarim, Helion, Chen Yu, Keiko, Kanae, Misu, Esil, Estrella, Nimue, Iziuel, Syradil, Revel and the Five Ancient Lords.
A few of the other notable mbers were the specialised pilots such as Shiina, Akhess, Oran, Celeste, Glen and the others.
Placing a tag on everyone just in case, Shiro waved her hand and teleported everyone off the city.
Once they were off Asharia, they could see the chs landing nearby as the city started to fade back into the Rift so that it would be safe from danger.
Right now, they were in the courtyard where the teleport circle was etched. The researchers in this station would use this to teleport back and forth from Asharia.
"So what are we doing here? All we know is that the second half is about to begin and you want us to be in the North Pole. Perhaps a boss will spawn? Though if that was the case I'm pretty sure you can handle it on your own." Helion asked curiously as his skin was slightly darker now due to the tan. After working in the forge tirelessly for days on end, Shiro could tell that there was more power hidden in his body. Each strike would no doubt pack a punch as he needed this power to forge better equipnt.
"I've already told Nan Tian but the reason why we're here is because one of the Administrators told that I should be here when the egg hatches. He never gave an exact ti but I have a feeling that it'll happen as the second half begins. With my body now in this state, anything the administrators throw at might be a little too much for solo so I'd asked all of you to co with ." Shiro laughed as the party mbers looked at one another before shrugging.
"Excuse miss Shiro, but would it be fine if I have a quick word?" Asmodeus called out as Shiro blinked her eyes before nodding her head.
Creating a portal, Asmodeus gestured for her to enter.
"Be right back. Nan Tian, can you set up a periter around the egg and tell about any abnormalities when I return?" Shiro asked as Nan Tian smiled.
"Of course, don't take too long now. We are on a ti limit." Nan Tian chuckled.
Stepping through the portal, Shiro could see a throne ready for her.
Raising an eyebrow, she sat down and crossed her legs.
"Well? What did you want to tell . I suppose it's rather important if you're wanting to speak to alone." Shiro asked as Asmodeus kneeled before her.
"Yes. I was unable to tell you this information before due to the restrictions in the world. However, now that the link is getting weaker, I can now share this before battle does break out. Plus, if I share so of this to the others I may get my head torn off by Mistress Madison." Asmodeus chuckled as Shiro frowned.
"What battle?"
"You see, when you regained so of your power as a destroyer, the changes in your body caused a change in the world as a whole. It allowed gods to resurface and walk alongside man. But as you know, the power of destruction is the bane of all living things. When a new age begins, new life is brought to this world and the planet is changed to suit them. Areas with high amounts of mana spawn stronger monsters. With soone like you, any where could suddenly beco the most dangerous place on Earth. Even if you did seal away your destructive aura for now, you are still the destroyer. I'm afraid that there may be a few… adversaries that will spawn near this place. Their nature is rather… unique as they counter demonic and destructive attacks. From the energy I feel from you, I can certainly say that you'll be quite effective against them. As for why I don't want the others to hear, that's because I hope that you can teleport yourself and them away from this place so that you may fight them alone. I've been judging the other party mbers but while they are strong, these beings are simply built to counter life. Even mistress Madison with the power of the 74 Demon Gods would be hard pressed to fight against even one of them." Asmodeus admitted bluntly, causing Shiro to frown.
"You want to fight them alone? I will say that with the power of the other party mbers, they can hold their own especially Madison. What do you an she can't fight them?" Shiro asked.
"There's no other aning. Mistress will not win. These beings are what sealed us Ancient Lords away to begin with. Mistress may have defeated us but overall it was a close fight. However, with these beings, it was futile to even struggle. However, there's another reason as to why I'm telling you about these people and why I ask you to fight them alone." Asmodeus smiled as Shiro listened silently.
"When the new age happens, monsters from the centre of the multiverse are sent to the edges where creation and destruction are most potent. It is to stop them from completely going to ruin which is rather ironic considering the changes they bring. However, it is more akin to giving the world a full reset. The system summons monsters that can be handled by the people in the world, including anomalies. I'm asking Miss Shiro to fight them alone because I believe sothing interesting may happen. Since they are sent from the centre, it's only natural that you can use them as transport to visit their ho. From the edges of destruction to the centre of the multiverse then to the edges of creation. I do believe that this is an opportunity for you. Miss Anima, as an Ancient Lord, we are granted certain knowledge that are passed down from the ages. While we may have not witnessed your wrath, we have certainly heard about it. Therefore, I do wish to avert the tragedy that may occur when you regain your full power. While I do not know what the Administrator wants from you and why he wants you to be near the egg, I do believe that he may have a similar thought in mind. For you to find another path to access the power of Creation. I cannot say much else much to my dismay but I will say that and the other Ancient Lords will do everything in our power to keep everyone safe should the situation get out of hand."
Hearing this, Shiro frowned before standing up.
"I'll see what I can do. Though with how things are, sotis you just have to wing it and adapt to the situation. I've brought a lot of anomalies with my current lifeti so it's safe to assu things won't play out as you expect." Shiro chuckled before patting Asmodeus on the shoulder.
"Plus, now that I've had a better look at you, I must say you've certainly surprised ." She smiled as there was circuits flickering in Shiro's eye. Realising that she must have used a skill to observe him, Asmodeus wondered what she saw.
Leaving the realm, Shiro made a note for herself as she spotted sothing rather interesting in Asmodeus' source code.
