Chapter 839 Final Moments

Laying on her back while floating in the air, Shiro had already set up a perimeter of drones around all four territories. Things were going quite well so there was much she needed to do in terms of support.

Silvia and Chen Yu were making steady progress in terms of conquering the mines. With Silvia being able to buff, debuff and act as a pseudo control mage, Chen Yu was able to knock out the people guarding the mines with ease.

For the fortress, while they were indeed making good progress, the damage to the fortress was growing with each passing moment.

Even when Aarim tried to contain the damage, Yin would get overly excited and launch another big spell which would damage the fortress further.

Even if Aarim was powerful, there was only so much she could do if Yin continuously launched spells like that.

Naturally, Shiro gave up on caring since even if she did destroy the fortress in the end, she could repair if they needed that location.

But since they were low on man power, that location could be ignored if they didn’t need it.

For the farmland, Lisandra had already finished conquering it and all she was doing now was guarding it in case someone came to claim it back.

She was the fastest one out of everyone because of the lack of guards.

The one that took the longest was the city due to its size. Since they didn’t want to kill people as they would be their subjects later, the party took extra care in not unleashing extremely strong spells.

This was the luxury of the strong since they can hold back and still win. With Madison and Lyrica acting as the vanguard, Helion would act as a pseudo assassin with the way his passive works.

If they see a strong target, he would ’forge’ his way towards them so that his presence was concealed then strike them on the back of the head to knock them out.

The shock of seeing a muscular man suddenly appear was rather surprising as the enemy wasn’t able to react to it at all.

In their shoes, Shiro would also be surprised since his passive makes it so that you ignore him. Even if you sent out a full area probe, his presence would be forgotten. It wasn’t erasure of presence but the trickery of the mind so in essence, it was one of the strongest stealth skills out there.

Unless you have a skill that prevented illusions, it would be impossible to find Helion. You could be cooking a nice meal for your family and Helion could be sitting at your table. As long as he is forging, you won’t notice him.

Just as she was relaxing, she felt her drones report a group of fast moving targets towards the city.

Closing one of her eyes, she looked through the camera of the drone and saw what seemed to be a queen candidate from the mana she was releasing along with her armour.

"Everyone listen up, we got a queen candidate flying here from the west of the city. There’s an open area between her and the city so we’ll go confront her there. That way, we can avoid getting any bystanders into our fight." Shiro smiled.

"I’m ready since I’ve already cleared the farmlands." Lisandra reported as Shiro nodded her head.

"What about team one?" She asked.

"We got one more level to go then we’ll be good too." Silvia replied since they were currently making their way through the mines, clearing out guards.

"That’s fine, take your time, when you’re ready, pretty the third button and a portal will be created for you at my location. Team two, what about you two?"

"If we ignore the damages done on the fortress, we’re pretty much done since Yin wouldn’t stop firing off spells. There are a few casualties but no one is dead." Aarim replied while Yin was still firing spells in the background.

"Mn ignore her for now. I know that team four hasn’t finished yet but that’s fine, team one, two and three join up into the portal when I give you the signal." Shiro ordered as she dashed towards the west of the city so that she could intercept the queen candidate in the plains.

That way, they could fight without worrying too much.

With Shiro’s speed, she was able to arrive at the plains and intercept the queen candidate with ease.

Seeing the sudden appearance of a white hair girl who seemed to emit no mana at all, Imari’s instinct was already telling her that something was wrong.

Stopping their charge, she glared at the girl before opening her mouth.

"Speak! Who are you?" She declared as she summoned her spear.

"Just a friend of the person who’s taking the city. How’s your day?" Shiro chuckled and gave her a small wave.

Hearing this, Imari frowned since she couldn’t tell how powerful Shiro was at all.

"Why don’t you introduce yourself? I’m rather curious what rank you are in terms of being a queen candidate." Shiro smiled.

"Only if you tell me your identity first." Imari replied as Shiro shrugged.

"Well that’s a real shame since we don’t know who we’re up against. But I suppose you’ll be fighting me since we are taking your territory. Seeing that you are coming from the west of the this city, I’d say there’s a good chance that you’re Imari Nau the 67th rank Demon Queen Candidate no?" Shiro asked with a grin.

Seeing that her identity was figured out, Imari didn’t say anything other than glance to her assistant.

"What’s the situation in the city right now?" She whispered.

"My companions are taking care of the guards right now so that the city comes under our control. Don’t worry, they won’t be killing anyone." Shiro interrupted as she appeared behind the queen with a smile.

Widening her eyes, the queen immediately slashed her spear towards Shiro.

However, just as she finished the full motion of her swing, she noticed that her spear had disappeared and Shiro was floating above her with the spear in hand.

"It’s not a bad weapon but compared to our blacksmith’s it’s kind of on the weak side." Shiro chuckled as she threw the spear back at her.

"Here. Fighting you isn’t going to be any fun so I’ll let the others deal with you. After all, if I decided to fight...."

"You’ll be killed in an instant." She finished as she reappeared besides the queen with her sword against Imari’s neck.

Halting her breath out of fear, Imari glanced behind her in anger since her subjects didn’t protect their queen at all. But the moment she looked back, she saw that everyone had ice chains restraining their movements with swords surrounding them.

She understood that if the white haired girl wanted to, she could end them all in an instant.

"Of course, if you want to surrender, that’s an option too." Shiro chuckled and jumped down from the sky.

Landing on the ground, she made herself a beach chair and an umbrella before bringing out some juice from her inventory.

"You can have some fun with them instead." Shiro smiled.

Snapping her finger, several portals opened up as the party stepped through it and looked towards the reinforcements the queen candidate brought.

"You know, if you scare them like that they wouldn’t want to fight anymore." Isilia sighed.

"Oh I’m sure it’s fine." Shiro waved her hand as Lyrica only shrugged since they were used to this.

While Shiro and the party were talking, Imari looked at all of them with a downcast expression.

Even if she did fight them, she knew that she wasn’t walking away victorious today.

Gritting her teeth, she looked back at her subjects that followed her.

"Go back, I’ll buy some time. Hopefully they won’t chase you down." She sighed while holding her spear.

Hearing this, the soldiers paused for a second before shaking their heads.

"There’s nowhere for us to go even if we go back." One of the soldiers said as the rest nodded their heads.

Pausing at this response, Imari chuckled.

"Dumbasses. Let’s take one down with us then." She grinned.
