Chapter 828 - Party's Improvements

Seeing Shiro, Lyrica was about to call out to her when she noticed a nervous elf besides her. Despite never having seen this elf before, she couldn't help but feel a little weird seeing her.

"Seems like you girls have been working hard. All of you have reached tier 5 and you Lyrica, have become the Elven Sword Saintess." Shiro smiled as Lyrica had finally accomplished what she had sought out to do.

Hearing Shiro's compliment, Lyrica smiled happily.

"Mn, it was hard but I finally did it. So far, the mastery I have over other weapons including ones with blades have increased. I have a bonded weapon as well as a subspace where I can store powerful weapons for me to use and it'll 'clone' the weapon. When I fight, I'll be able to summon a clone of that weapon to assist me. Of course, the clone is a little weaker than the original but it's still good enough." Lyrica explained while summoning a few blades and dismissing them.

"That's pretty handy in terms of weapon efficiency. What about the rest of you?" Shiro asked while glancing towards the rest of the party. Seeing their titles, she knew a general idea of their class but she wanted to hear them say it so that she could confirm her guess.

[Yin LVL 264 Divine Rift Devourer]

[Lisandra LVL 365 Divine Judge]

[Lyrica LVL 280 Elven Sword Saintess]

[Aarim LVL 275 Divine Caster]

[Silvia LVL 310 Sage of Life]

[Chen Yu LVL 270 Phantom Scythe]

[Madison LVL 275 Demoness of War]

[Helion LVL 280 Hephaestus' Successor]

Hearing this, the party nodded their heads since they didn't mind. If Shiro asked them while their guest was nearby, it meant that she was trusted.

Watching Shiro activate a silencing barrier so that the people outside couldn't hear, the party nodded at one another.

"I can eat everything and anything so long as it has mana and I can reuse it." Yin grinned as Shiro nodded her head.

"I kind of figured, considering that you have kept Devourer in your class." Shiro chuckled.

"My power is increased depending on your subconscious tolerance towards types of people, monsters and so on. If you dislike a certain type of person, my power against them is tripled. I'm a judge using your standards as the compass." Lisandra replied with a small smile.

"Oh? So if I didn't like Yin your power would triple against her?" Shiro raised her eyebrow as Yin widened her eyes.

"How can you not like me though. Did you forget how much I helped." Yin pouted as Shiro shrugged.

"It's just so that your sister can reign in your appetite." Shiro smirked. Of course, it was just a joke. She couldn't hate Yin since she was her daughter after all.

"Who's next? If no one's going to volunteer I guess I'll go next." Aarim asked.

"We're not exactly racing here so take your time." Silvia chuckled.

"Well mine is pretty simple so I wanted to get it out of the way. All my spells are enhanced with divine energy thanks to a certain demi god and my focus is on gravity. I think if I kept increasing my knowledge on gravity, I should be able to transition to controlling forces in this world such as kinetic force." Aarim shrugged.

"That should be achievable once you reach tier 6. But I'll be honest, this is the first time I've seen someone take gravity magic this far." Shiro smiled as Aarim shrugged.

"I have to take it this far in order to actually keep up with the crazy things that you do."

"True." Shiro nodded her head since she had recently constructed a large fortress after all.

{The poor girls don't know about it just yet either.} Nimue sighed while glancing at Madison and Aarim with pity.

'Don't spoil the fun surprise now.' Shiro chuckled in her mind before looking towards their healer, Silvia.

"So then, Sage of Life, care to tell us what you can do?" Shiro asked with a smile.

"Ugg… don't call me the Sage of Life when I can't even mass revive at your scale." Silvia sighed.

"You said at my scale so you can still mass revive no?"

Hearing this, Sivlia smiled since Shiro saw through her.

"Che, fine. Basically, I can revive up to 100 people at once but that's my limit. Any more than 100 and I'll have to choose who I don't revive. My buffs have also evolved and I have a buff where it completely stops you from taking damage for the next few moments." Silvia smiled feeling victorious about the fact that her buffs have not been surpassed by Shiro.

"That's very handy with Madison since I have a buff where it allows me to choose who takes damage and how it is spread out. If you use your buff with Madison, it'll negate all the damage that everyone will take." Shiro smiled.

"What about you Chen?"

"My class let's me instantly kill someone as long as certain requirements are fulfilled. Everyone has a certain amount of death marks on their body and if I can strike them all, they'll die. The stronger you are, the harder it is to hit the death marks and the tougher they are. Of course, there are special skills needed to be activated before I can actually instant kill but I can passively see Death Marks if I wanted to." Chen Yu replied as Shiro raised her eyebrow in surprise since this was the first time she had heard of something like this.

"Interesting… Just out of curiosity, how many death marks do I have?" Shiro asked since she was curious about how 'strong' she was against Chen Yu.

Closing his eyes, the whites started to darken before turning black completely.

Looking at Shiro once more, Chen Yu widened his eyes in surprise before sighing and shaking his head.

"It'd be too difficult to kill you even if I used everything. There are so many death marks all around your body and they're all rather tough to pierce. Killing you is way too hard of a task." Chen Yu shrugged his shoulders as his eyes returned to normal.

"That's good to know. If I was easy to kill, it'd be rather concerning." Shiro smiled.

"For the last two of the party, miss I want to be normal is now the Demoness of war and our blacksmith is Hephaestus' Successor. Why don't you tell me a bit about your class?" Shiro chuckled.

"I basically can use all my berserk skills on a shorter cooldown and no backlash. Like before, I have two forms I guess, attack and defence. When I'm attacking, I don't take as much damage. When I'm defending, I reflect a bunch of damage. Also, I've given up now, I don't think normal is possible anymore. I have to either become the ruler of demons or I die." Madison scratched her hair in annoyance.

{Poor girl. When you win, you should help her get a normal life or something close to that.} Nimue said as Shiro nodded her head.

'I'll keep that in mind.'

"Well I can't say much about being normal anymore but I can definitely say that the power of using berserk skills without backlash is one of the craziest things I have heard. Plus, you said that they were on a shorter cooldown didn't you? You can use that short cooldown to trick a few people if you want. Have them think that they should go all out then just leave and fight them again when your berserk skill comes off cooldown." Shiro chuckled since she could already picture it now. They'll be waiting to strike her when she's suffering from backlash but that wait will be fruitless.

She had to admit that she would be against fighting Madison as well if she was an enemy. The power of berserk skills wasn't one to underestimate since many of them would give powerful skills as well. With Madison's class, those skills that she receives will be insane.

*Sigh…

"I know but what can I do?" Madison shrugged with a sigh.

"Mn, what about you Helion? What can you do now?" Shiro asked as Helion smiled.

"As a passive of my class, as long as I can study a certain piece of armour or weapon for an extended amount of time, I can improve it to the next grade provided that there is room for improvement with the material. If the material is brought to its limits, it will not rank up."

Hearing this, Shiro widened her eyes as this was the most outrageous thing she had heard all her life. If she was to provide him with rainbow grade equipment, there was a chance that he could bring it to the unknown next grade!
