Nanomancer Reborn - I've Become A Snow G...

Chapter 1163 Juri

Walking through a sandy world, a hooded woman paused in her footsteps. Behind her there was a giant dragon with a party of people on its back.

"Is something wrong Lyrica?" Vuldrin asked as everyone got off his back. Transforming back to his human form, he pulled out his own cloak and put it on.

"Nothing much. I just felt a surge of mana to the west. You mentioned that the Beyond was an overlap of the real world right? Only that this one is closer to mana." Lyrica smiled as Vuldrin nodded his head.

"Yes, is something wrong with that?" Vuldrin asked as Lyrica shook her head.

"Nothing is wrong with it, but something interesting did happen. Can you teleport us to the west? I'll give you the coordinates now." Lyrica smiled as Vuldrin was confused but nodded his head.

Receiving the coordinates from Lyrica, a tier 7 magic circle expanded out from Vuldrin's feet as everyone was swept away by the spell.

Arriving at the coordinates, Vuldrin felt his mind getting overwhelmed by a mix of fear and awe. Quickly jumping back, he transformed into his dragon form and glared at the view in front of him.

For the first time in his life, he transformed out of fear. Earlier, he couldn't sense the power but now that he was this close, he could sense everything.

"The aura of a tier 9 being! My mother has told me about such beings before, I thought that they had died out long ago." Vuldrin growled as the scales on his body trembled at the aura he was sensing.

"What's a tier 9 being?" Asher asked out of curiosity.

"Tier 7 beings are Demi G.o.ds, ent.i.ties that had tapped into the power of the divine. Tier 8 beings are G.o.ds, they get stronger with their follower's beliefs and have mastered the use of divine energy. There are of course different stages of power within this. My mother was a divine rank 2 being which means she is on the same level as popular G.o.ds that you know such as Zeus or Odin. While she wasn't sure how high the divine ranks goes, she told me about a whole new cla.s.s of being. The tier 9 beings also known as the First Born.

"Demi G.o.ds, G.o.ds and such can be created through belief but that's not the case for First Borns. They are the second closest thing to the start of everything. They are what some would call the G.o.d of G.o.ds. I don't know how many First Borns there are but if you meet a hostile one, you would die before you can even blink." Vuldrin explained while Lyrica made her way towards the centre.

In front of her, the world seemed as though it had been ripped apart. There was nine tears in s.p.a.ce, each one seemed to reveal a new realm to Lyrica.

However, while others may just see them as rips in s.p.a.ce, Lyrica could sense something more. After being in the Beyond, her senses have already been heightened to their limit. From tears, she could sense something more. Something primal.

Walking towards the tears, a green aura exploded from her body and morphed into a protective cover.

*BANG!!! BOOM!!!!

Invisible flickers of energy struck out towards her as the protective cover flickered and eventually dimmed. However, Lyrica wasn't bothered. There was something calling to her from within the ripple of energy and if it allowed her to become s.h.i.+ro's sword and act as her vanguard then Lyrica would push on.

Grabbing her sword, she closed her eyes and stomped down.

*BOOM!!!!!!!!

A sharp aura exploded out from her body as her own Throne World rippled out, anchoring itself in the realm of the beyond and contested against the ripples of energy.

Thousands of swords appeared in an array around her and shot out while she plunged her hand into her chest and pulled out a light blue orb. Shattering it, all of her swords lit up with a green and blue energy as her form also changed.

Crouching down, she dashed forward and cut down the ripples of invisible energy that sought to take her life.

Furrowing her brows, Lyrica could see her swords getting disintegrated upon contact.

Realising this, she hid her current sword and replaced it with one from her Throne World.

Pa.s.sing the first rip in s.p.a.ce, Lyrica was. .h.i.t by a wave of energy that shattered the protective cover around her.

Das.h.i.+ng past the second, she could feel her body crumbling away but strangely, there was no warning of danger in her heart. In fact, her body almost welcomed it.

'Life after death, creation after destruction. The energy in this array reminds me of s.h.i.+ro but it is embedded with a chaotic force that disintegrates anything it touches. However, there's a ray of light after that destruction. Birth, life, death, rebirth.' Lyrica thought to herself as she rushed past the third tear in s.p.a.ce.

The energy that rippled out from the tear immediately shattered her body to pieces, shocking everyone who was there. However, from the destruction, a ray of green and blue light pierced through the blood mist and coagulated into a form of a sword. Morphing its own shape, they could faintly see the figure of a elven woman slammed her hand down.

Green energy exploded around her and created a barrier around her.

With a barrier around her body, Lyrica dashed towards the fourth.

The fourth shattered the barrier, the fifth fractured the illusionary blade, the sixth broke it to pieces before being reforged. The Seventh granted her blade a deadly l.u.s.tre that cut apart anything it came into contact with. The eighth shattered her blade once more. Now that she was nothing but a faint wisp of energy, Lyrica approached the ninth tear.

During the whole process, she finally understood why she felt no fear. While it destroyed her body, it tempered her soul through the primal forces of destruction and from that destruction her soul grew stronger. Life after death, creation after destruction.

Standing before the final tear in s.p.a.ce, Lyrica could see the flickering visages of s.h.i.+ro unleas.h.i.+ng the spell onto the world. Curling her lips into a smile, Lyrica reached out and caressed the vision.

"I'll be there soon." Lyrica muttered before walking past the tear.

Unlike the previous tears, this one did not shatter her body. Instead, it shattered itself to piece and started to infuse Lyrica's soul with power.

Little by little, the light started to peel off Lyrica's body, revealing her new physique. Waving her finger, Lyrica got dressed and glanced at rip in s.p.a.ce that reflected her appearance.

She now looked a little older with green and blue hair that s.h.i.+mmered with every movement. Her eyes had changed as her iris now resembled the wheel of samsara.

[Lyrica LVL 990 Empress of Samsara]

"The Beyond is not just a realm that's closer to mana. It's a realm that connects everything together. It's the cross road to each of the realms in the world and it is also the guiding light for me to fine h.e.l.l and heaven." Lyrica muttered as she understood the energy within this realm.

Reaching out with her hand, she sliced down.

*BOOM!!!!!!!!!!!

Immediately, the world in front of her split in two as the two halves slowly transformed into portals. The one on the right poured out with divine energy while the one on the left radiated demonic.

Narrowing her eyes, Lyrica thought about entering the right portal when her footsteps paused.

Teleporting back to her party, she did a circle gesture with her finger and a barrier appeared around everyone. The moment the barrier appeared, a giant portal appeared in the sky as 10 royal guards of the beyond poured out, their aura blasted out as Vuldrin could still feel their power.

If not for Lyrica's barrier, it may have just killed them if they were too weak.

Within the centre of the royal guards, a single person stood.

She had dark red hair and golden pupils. Runic patterns could be seen on her arms as she wore a sleeveless white and gold dress.

"I wonder what has brought the realm ruler to a place like this. I do hope that I haven't caused you any trouble." Lyrica smiled as she could see the name tag of the person in front of her.

[Juri LVL 1000 Realm Ruler of The Beyond (Divinity Rank 2)]

Looking at Lyrica, Juri narrowed her eyes before looking towards the tears in s.p.a.ce that she had created.

"I can accept you walking around my realm. However, if you open such portals without care, I will have to banish you." Juri warned as Lyrica grinned and shrugged her shoulder.

"No harm no foul."

Staying silent, Juri nodded her head before aiming her palm at the tears in s.p.a.ce.

Clenching her fist, the mana in the realm surged and immediately repaired the damage. Giving Lyrica another glance, she turned around and left with her guards.

Dropping the barrier, Lyrica stretched her body. There was a smile on her face as this was a big step towards her goal. All that's left is to consolidate her power and touch the realm of divinity.
