Chapter 471 Celestial Court Mage

Reading the skill, Shiro couldn't help but raise her eyebrows.

Immediately, there were a few key figures that she had in mind and they were Keiko, Keomi and Aarim. Aarim because her control skills were extremely useful and gravity magic was quite a rare find. As for Keiko and Keomi, they were good choices since they're the most powerful people in the group of people she knew. Since she'll be going to free Yuki soon, she'll need as much muscle power as she could get.

"Shiro? Are you alright?" Lyrica called out as she noticed that Shiro seemed to be daydreaming.

"Mn? Oh it's nothing. Just looking at a new skill I got." Shiro replied with a smile.

"Oh? What kind of skill?" Aarim asked as her interests were piqued. Since Shiro was a monster and a race queen, she was quite curious as to what kind of skills she could get.

"Well you see, the skill is called Celestial Court Appointment and it allows me to 'hire/appoint' people as part of my Celestial Court. I will get more slots in the future but right now, I can appoint three of you. Once you're appointed, you can get a passive bonus that is linked to your class. Think of it as extra benefits." Shiro explained with a smile.

"Heh~ So you can choose three people right now and more in the future. So who's on your mind right now?" Aarim asked.

"Well I'm planning on giving Keiko and Keomi a slot since I'll be needing their help soon. As for the last one, I'm thinking that I should give it to you Aarim. Since you're a control mage, one that can use gravity as well, your improvement will definitely help the team massively." Shiro replied with a smile.

"Me? Are you sure you don't want to give it to Silvi? Since she's a healer, won't she take priority?" Aarim raised her eyebrows.

"Yes and no. Yes because as you said, she is a healer. As for why I said no, it's because her healing is already outstanding. There's no need to upgrade it further for now since the impact it would have on the party would be quite small at her current stage. The same goes for the rest of the party. However, since you're a control mage, it doesn't matter how powerful you are as any upgrade would give the party massive benefits." Shiro explained.

"Hmm… I see. Is everyone ok with that?" Aarim asked the party.

"Oh of course. We're doing fine so having more control on the team would be quite helpful." Lyrica nodded with a smile.

"Yup. Like Lyrica said, if you can control the battlefield more, I wouldn't need to worry about tanking as many blows as I need to and Silvi wouldn't need to keep healing me." Madison grinned and gave Aarim a thumbs up.

Seeing that the rest of the party agreed with this decision, Aarim could only shake her head softly and smile.

"In that case then how do we do this?" Aarim asked as Shiro paused for a moment.

"Oh right, how do I do this?" She muttered since she had been trying to use the skills by herself without the help of the system if possible.

Glancing towards the system, she activated the skill as a flood of knowledge entered her mind, enlightening her on how she should use this skill.

Memorising what she could do, Shiro gestured for Aarim to stand in front of her.

Seeing that Aarim followed her instructions, Shiro raised her hand up as mana surged towards her palm.

Swiping it down, a staff of sorts was formed in her hands as a pulse of golden energy exploded out.

"Aarim, on my authority as the Celestial Sylph Empress, do you accept a role in my court? Do note that once this is done, the role cannot be revoked." Shiro asked as she had a soft smile on her face.

"I do." Aarim nodded.

Seeing that Aarim had agreed, Shiro slammed the pommel of her staff down as a tier 4 magic circle erupted out from under their feet.

[Acknowledgement Received. Generating Role… Celestial Court Mage.]

[Celestial Court Mage]

The person given this role will receive the following benefits:

+10% of Empress' INT stat.

+20% Mana Regeneration

+20% Armour/Magic Penetration

+20% Efficiency when using spells

As a Celestial Court Mage, you are more likely to receive inspiration when you are making new spells.

Seeing the description of the role, Shiro couldn't help but focus in on the final line.

'You are more likely to receive inspiration when you are making new spells huh? Seems like it fits Aarim quite well considering the fact that she likes to research quite a bit." Shiro mused to herself while Aarim stood in silence.

Looking at her stats, she watched the extra bracket next to her INT stat and realised that ten times that amount is how many points Shiro had in a single stat.

"Shiro…" Aarim called out hesitantly.

"Sup."

"Tell me, could it be that your INT stat is worth 385,000 points?" Aarim asked as she had received a bonus of 38.5k points in her stats.

"Mn? Yeah. Is something wrong?" Shiro tilted her head since it was quite normal for monsters to have high INT stats. Especially if they're more magic related.

"Just asking but how much mana do you have now with 385k points in your INT?"

"Hmm… well if I factor in all of my passive stacks and armour, I have a total of 128 million points worth of MP." Shiro replied.

"PFTTTT!!!! And you can use all of that with your mana links fixed!?" Aarim widened her eyes.

"Yup. I mean, is it really that much of a shock? I am literally carving holes in the dungeon every time we clear this?" Shiro replied.

"Urg… true. Sorry, I just forgot how unfair monster stats are." Aarim sighed.

"Not to burst your bubble but I haven't been working on my monster passive too much since it requires me to kill humans. The humans I kill in trials don't count so… if I go on a genocide in the real world, I think I can increase my MP even more." Shiro replied with a soft chuckle.

"Yikes, that is not an image I would like to think about. Shiro on a warpath, ay?" Aarim shrugged as the party couldn't help but agree. If Shiro really did focus on her monster stat to capitalise on the amount of MP she could get, she would have long reached the 100 million MP threshold since they had seen monsters with that much MP back in Vericia.

"Anyways, enough about my MP stat. It's going to be night soon outside so I suggest we rest up now. Do remember that the longer we stay in the dungeon, the faster you'll be burning your lifespan. While you are still technically still 15 years old outside in the world, you are in reality, a lot older due to your time in the dungeon. I'd say with the amount of time you spent inside the dungeon, you're probably around 18 to 20 in terms of age." Shiro smiled.

"And the fact that you're level 115 despite it not being a full year is still ridiculous as ever." Lyrica chuckled since Shiro wasn't even a year old if you look at her age as a monster.

"Ah we don't talk about my age ok? Since technically, I've already lived through a lifetime if I include what Kuromi had gone through." Shiro chuckled while bringing her finger up to her lips and made a 'keep it a secret' gesture.

"Wait… Mum, does that make you a granny? Since you've experienced life once." Yin asked with a tilt of her head.

*PUCHI!

Flickering next to Yin, Shiro leaned down slowly and 'smiled' at Yin.

"Hou hou, look at me darling. Am I not your beautiful and youthful mother? Where is this talk of granny coming from? Plus, I'm not even a year old yet." Shiro replied.

*COUGH!

"Nowhere. I'm just spacing out a little." Yin quickly corrected herself as the party looked away since it was quite suicidal calling Shiro granny.

One would think that Yin would have learned her lesson but it turns out the gluttonous bird only had food and her little brother in mind.

Knocking Yin on the head gently, Shiro led the party out of the dungeon as they were going to rest up for the night. Depending on what happens, they either deal with the church or talk to Keiko and Keomi tomorrow.
