Nanomancer Reborn - I've Become A Snow Girl? Chapter 358 Yuki

Chapter 358 Yuki

"Ah? Erm… ok?" s.h.i.+ro was confused as to why a woman suddenly hugged her.

Much like her, this woman had long white hair that reached roughly down half way of her back along with a pair of amethyst eyes. Her skin was that of a healthy peach coupled with some light blushes on her cheeks.

As for her clothing, she wore a short white kimono with blue rose patterns spread around the edges. White stockings and some traditional j.a.panese sandals.

{My queen, she looks quite like the current you doesn't she? In terms of hair colour and eye colour anyways.} Nimue asked as s.h.i.+ro couldn't help but agree.

Watching the woman cry a little while hugging onto her, s.h.i.+ro sighed slightly and returned the hug back while patting her hair.

Letting her calm down after a while, Yuki stopped the hug and wiped away her tears.

"Sorry about that. It's just that I haven't seen you in a long time and I had initially thought that you died." Yuki apologised as her eyes were a little red around the rims.

"It's fine. Though I'm surprised that our current appearance looks quite similar wouldn't you say?" s.h.i.+ro replied with a smile.

"Mn indeed. So have you met with Keomi yet?" Yuki asked.

"Yeah, in the letter you also said that you sent one to Keiko right? My apparent cousin. Though I can't say for sure since I don't exactly remember anything." s.h.i.+ro replied while rubbing her nose a little.

"Ah so you do have amnesia. Hmm… that's going to be a bit troublesome. But why haven't you reached B cla.s.s yet? I thought I mentioned that you should get to B cla.s.s first." Yuki tilted her head a little in confusion.

"You see, my next cla.s.s may or may not be difficult to attain so I want to get some information quickly." s.h.i.+ro replied while making the two of them some ice chairs and a table.

Pointing at the chairs, s.h.i.+ro gestured for Yuki to sit down.

"What kind of cla.s.s is there that would force you to contact me earlier?" Yuki asked while sitting down.

"A celestial type one."

"PFT!" Widening her eyes, Yuki finally understood why s.h.i.+ro had contacted her so early.

'It's going to take a while for her to get everything she needs to cla.s.s up. Plus, there's not even a guarantee that she could cla.s.s up meaning there's a good chance that she'll have to reset her cla.s.s and levels once more. If that happens, she'll lose everything she's worked for. Hmmm….' She thought to herself with a frown.

"Hmm… fine. I'll try telling you as much information as I can then. d.a.m.n, I've wasted some time at the start since I thought you were B cla.s.s so we could ignore some parts." Yuki sighed while furrowing her brows.

"Since you have amnesia, I'll tell you about your biggest enemy first. His name if Duan Han Ying. While I'm not sure how many power's he's got behind him, I can say for certain that he has ties with some of the biggest factions. If anything, you'll need to be careful when you reach cities close to the front lines.

"As much as I want to say that Rising Sun is safe, we don't know if he has connections there or not." Yuki shook her head.

Talking about Duan Han Ying for a little longer, s.h.i.+ro noted it all down mentally and found out that Kuromi had already told her most of this.

The only thing that she didn't know was that due to a recent outbreak near the front lines, he was forced to leave Yuki alone so this is potentially the best time to try to get her out of her prison.

"Aright, I've noted it down. Where are you currently? I'll see if I can help you." s.h.i.+ro asked.

"Hmm… I'm in a place called Frozen Imperial Mountains. To get to it, you'll have to reach the portal that's opened up near the peak of mount Everest. However, b.a.s.t.a.r.d Duan has set up a formation around the place. Another thing to note is that the Frozen Imperial Mountains is like a dungeon. When you enter the portal, it sends you to a different realm of sorts. As for how big this place is, I don't know since I can't leave where I am right now due to a secondary barrier. The only thing I can do is use the devices he provided to manage my faction.

"I'll be able to leave if I reach A cla.s.s but the moment I do, all of my life energy and mana will be drained and stored away, killing me. The worst part is, I can't even kill myself right now since the barrier around this place constantly heals me faster than I can harm myself" Yuki sighed.

"Then can't you just not make any progress?" s.h.i.+ro tilted her head.

"That's not an option either since it will put me under torture should my energy not be raised past a certain amount every day. I've been trying to slow it down as much as possible through limiting my advancement but I don't know how long it'll last before he gets fed up and just kills me outright."

"By the way, how did you even send me the letters if you're in a different world/dungeon?" s.h.i.+ro asked curiously.

"You see, because it's not a complete dungeon, the s.p.a.ce is rather unstable. I managed to find a small ripple where I can use my magic to send letters that have familiars attached to them. Though the size of the ripple fluctuates quite a bit so I'm not too sure about how long it'll last."

"Tch, how troublesome. I was hoping that you could potentially try to sneak out through that but it doesn't seem possible.

"Mn."

"Anyways, just so that I can make sure, in order to find you, I'll need to get to Mount Everest and break past the formation that he has set out. After finding the portal, I'll find the Frozen Imperial Mountains should I enter. In this 'world', you're located somewhere right?" s.h.i.+ro repeated.

"Yes that is correct." Yuki nodded though she couldn't help but feel a little guilty. Despite her not being able to leave the realm while her best friend was being killed, she is now asking for her help even though she has amnesia.

"Alright I got it. My next stop is j.a.pan to try to get some of my items for the cla.s.s up and perhaps meet Keiko. After that, I'll come look for you." s.h.i.+ro nodded with a smile.

"You know Kuro chan, I wasn't there for you when you were about to die and yet you are here now, helping me even though you can't remember everything. What if I'm lying to you?" Yuki asked as she looked down, not wanting to see s.h.i.+ro's expression.

"Hmm… let's just say a part of me wants to help you anyways. Waiting for death in a place where you can't talk to anyone and can only cultivate is not a fate that anyone wants. h.e.l.l, even if it was a random person, as long as I can stop them from suffering this fate, I will." s.h.i.+ro chuckled since this was similar to her time in the labs.

Waiting alone and going through experiments where the only solution is to die. But that was out of reach since the scientists stopped her from dying at the start as she was their prized experiment.

"And also, It's s.h.i.+ro now and you can drop the chan. It feels somewhat awkward personally to hear that at the end of my name." s.h.i.+ro shrugged.

"Mn, got it. s.h.i.+ro, if I can get out of here, I'll definitely do my best to help you out. I won't just sit by and watch as Duan get's his hands on you. More so since you're trying to help me even though your hands are quite full." Yuki promised with solid determination in her eyes.

Seeing this, s.h.i.+ro smiled softly.

'You have some nice friends Kuromi. The determination in her eyes is like the blazing sun, unyielding. Ironic since her name means snow.' s.h.i.+ro thought to herself.

"By the way, do you happen to know why Duan Han Ying tried to kill me?"

"Hmm… not really. I only know that you two were 'friends' for a while but then something happened and he went all ape sh*t on us. Trapping me and trying to kill you. Thankfully, he hasn't done anything to the rest of your family yet but I would keep an eye out for them especially your parents as they're both on the front lines." Yuki replied.

"I see…"

Before they could continue, they felt their connection falter as they both frowned.

"Seems like the time is up." s.h.i.+ro muttered.

"Mn. Stay safe out there s.h.i.+ro. If you can't come help me, don't. It's better that I die than the both of us die should Duan be here when you are."

Raising an eyebrow, s.h.i.+ro only smiled before flicking Yuki's head.

"Don't give up so easily like that. I said I'll come help you so just wait for a while." s.h.i.+ro grinned before disappearing.

Opening her eyes, Yuki looked up in the sky and smiled softly.

"I'll wait for you then Ku- no, s.h.i.+ro." She muttered.
