Chapter 123 - Trial Rewards

The moment the dragon died, s.h.i.+ro was shocked seeing the world pause in its tracks. It was as if someone had instantly tapped the pause b.u.t.ton on the world.

Furrowing her brows, she ignored the frozen sight of the dragon being skewered and looked towards the party.

"Well, I suppose it makes sense that this world will end the moment the trial finished. It is only a fabrication after all." s.h.i.+ro muttered whilst looking at the party members.

However, seeing the group of people she had interacted for the past few days become frozen and helpless, she couldn't help but shake her head.

[Trial Complete. Grade: B]

"Che grade B? This lady has killed the dragon. Why is it grade B?" s.h.i.+ro muttered.

[Side Quest Completion Grade: B

Main Quest Completion Grade: C

Hidden Task Completion Grade: A]

[Hidden Task Reward: Ancient Healing Arts: Fire of Life.]

[Main Task B Grade Reward: Calamity Dragon Scale, Calamity's Will (Tier 2)]

"Only two items?! Are you serious! This miss went through all that for two items?" s.h.i.+ro frowned at the cheap reward.

[Calamity Dragon Scale (Orange) 3/3]

A scale that contains the power of the Calamity Dragon. One is able to use this scale three times to exhibit the power of the Calamity Dragon for a short amount of time.

(Limited to Tier 3 due to B ranked completion rate.)

Duration: 10 Minutes.

[Due to certain hidden conditions met, you are rewarded with the Calamity Force.]

[Calamity's Will (Tier 2) - Shadow Attunement Augmentation (Orange)

Your shadows are now embedded with the power of calamities.

Increased Mana Absorption, Poison and Corrosion. (Limited to Tier 2)

Grants a decent resistance to status effects. (Limited to Tier 2)

Increase affinity with Spirits and Corrupted Monsters.]

"… I stand corrected." s.h.i.+ro said in surprise when she saw the description.

At a glance, the Calamity Dragon Scale seemed like a material that one would use when crafting a weapon or armour. However, what she didn't expect was the fact that the scale was actually a type of Essence Relic that would house the powers of the monster that dropped it.

While the item isn't precious to high level adventurers, for her, it was a life saving item. Even though her Nanomancer Cla.s.s will help her take care of level 50's, anything in the C cla.s.s territory was still a little out of reach for her. But with this, she wouldn't need to worry about any potential conflicts with the Slums.

When a person is granted power above their tier, they wouldn't know how to use the power efficiently since they aren't able to output all of the power at their disposal. However, it was no problem for her since her power easily surpa.s.sed Tier 3 in her past life.

With a single experiment that increased her level way past the 200 mark. She was Tier 5 Hero that hardly had a match in the world. Naturally, since the scientists could upgrade her, they could upgrade others.

But the other test subjects didn't have the same efficiency with the nan.o.bots which resulted in them only reaching level 150/ Tier 5. Even the best subject could only reach the early stages of level 200+.

The problem was the fact that there were experiments happening all over the world. There were so many labs hidden in the world to the point that some even guessed that it was impossible to find all of them even if they spent their whole life searching. So even though they destroyed a lot of labs, they were far from being able to completely eradicate them.

And amongst her conflicts with the test subjects, she ascended into the legendary Tier 6 which was never seen in the world. She could remember her upgrade having a visible effect in the world.

It was also due to the fact that she had reached Tier 6 before the hero that his jealousy was aroused.

Shaking her head of the idle thoughts, s.h.i.+ro glanced at her level.

"Che, the kills didn't go into my t.i.tle." s.h.i.+ro clicked her tongue as she couldn't help but lament the missed opportunity.

If it had included all of the humans she had killed, she could almost guarantee that her monster t.i.tle would increase once more.

Suddenly, a bright light filled her vision and stopped her musing short. She s.h.i.+elded her eyes and waited for the light to die down.

*BANG!!!!

A sudden hammer hit the back of her head as it send her cras.h.i.+ng into the ground.

Lyrica looked in shock as her enemy had slammed his hammer into the back of s.h.i.+ro's head.

"What. In. The. F*ck." s.h.i.+ro said slowly as she slowly got out of small crater without too much visible damage. Her eyes were slight blood shot from the anger she was feeling since she had just left her trial and some random f*ck decides to allow the hammer to make sweet love to the back of her head and force her to faceplant the ground.

Both Lyrica and the person who had just hit s.h.i.+ro paled when they felt her killing intent burst outwards.

Ice spread rapidly as it instantly from the man's body, excluding his head.

"Would you like a run down about what's happening?" Lyrica asked as she could tell that s.h.i.+ro wanted an explanation right now.

[Go. Make it short or else I'll start peeling this fat b.a.s.t.a.r.d behind me like a f.u.c.king banana.] s.h.i.+ro typed out on her phone. Her cold eyes sent s.h.i.+vers down the man's back as he could tell that she was being serious.

'Tsk, I need to cla.s.s up quickly because I swear if I have to type on the phone one more b.l.o.o.d.y time when I'm angry, I'm going to kill someone.' s.h.i.+ro thought angrily.

"So basically…."

After listening to Lyrica's explanation, s.h.i.+ro could only reluctantly let the man go. He was one of the patrolmen who had seen Lyrica struggling with developing a new skill and volunteered to spar with her.

Just as their spar started, s.h.i.+ro had returned from her trial and the back of his hammer came into contact with her skull.

[You can go now. The more I see you the more I want to peel you.]

"R-right…" He stammered as he quickly walked away.

After walking away, he couldn't help but glance back again only to see four swords around s.h.i.+ro that glowed ominously.

She made a throat slitting gesture which caused him to run without looking back.

Whilst this was happening, he couldn't help but think back to when he had accidently hit her.

'How did she make it out unscathed?' He thought to himself as he was a Bona fide level 50 hammer master. Even if she was a level 44 tank, she would have taken some visible damage as well. But from what he could see, she was perfectly fine.

However, only s.h.i.+ro knew what had happened. And the truth was that it definitely hurt. But not to the point where she would be visual about the pain.

s.h.i.+ro had her guard down since she had just finished her trial but she never expected to get hit the moment she got out. Not only that, but a single hit had taken 75k worth oh HP off in one hit.

That was also the reason as to why she was p.i.s.sed and wanted to peel the guy like a banana.

If it wasn't for her Monster t.i.tle that had effectively doubled her HP, she could have died right there and then.

"Erm… did it hurt?" Lyrica asked.

[What do you think? I just had a 1000lb hammer slam into the back of my head. It tickled.] s.h.i.+ro rolled her eyes.

"…" Lyrica couldn't help but facepalm when she realised how dumb her question was.

"So how was the trial? Did you get anything good from it?" She asked.

[The rewards were pretty amazing. It'll help me fight against any level 60 that decide to challenge me. h.e.l.l, I'm pretty sure that even if they're level 70, I'll be able to fight them on equal ground. Naturally, the item is limited so it's my life saving item.] s.h.i.+ro replied.

"Heh~ The item must be pretty high ranking then right?"

[Yep. Orange grade once again.] s.h.i.+ro smiled.

"PFT! Orange grade again??!!" Lyrica widened her eyes in disbelief. She couldn't believe that s.h.i.+ro had managed to obtain so many Orange Grade items in such a short time.

"s.h.i.+ro-nee!!!" A young voice cried out in excitement as they could see a shadow jump towards s.h.i.+ro.

As for s.h.i.+ro, she only smiled and opened her arms for Kanae.

However, Lyrica intercepted the Kanae-missile and stood in front of s.h.i.+ro like a guardian.

"Oh, Ricnee are we playing that game?" Kanae smiled and increased her running speed.

Lyrica responded in kind as she too, ran towards her.

s.h.i.+ro watched with interest since she wanted to see how they improved while she was inside the trial penetrating a certain Calamity Dragon.

Once they were about to collide with each other, Lyrica reached out and grabbed Kanae by the hips before bending her body backwards to suplex her into the ground.

However, Kanae had a happy smile on her face since they had practiced this a few times whilst s.h.i.+ro was inside the dungeon.

Bending her body backwards, Kanae demonstrated flexibility that was almost on par with s.h.i.+ro and managed to sliver out of the Lyrica's hold.

Since Kanae had escaped her grip, Lyrica transitioned her suplex into a handstand and kicked towards Kanae.

Jumping over the kick, Kanae used Lyrica's leg as a jump pad to propel herself towards s.h.i.+ro.

"How was that s.h.i.+ro-nee?" Kanae asked with a happy smile whilst hugging s.h.i.+ro.

[A lot of improvement. Glad to see that you haven't skimped out on improving your flexibility.] s.h.i.+ro praised whilst rubbing her head.

"Hehe~"

Lyrica sighed as she watched Kanae enjoy a head rub from s.h.i.+ro.

'Even though she only patted my head once…' She thought sadly.

s.h.i.+ro only raised an eyebrow when she sensed Lyrica's change in emotion.

Smiling wearily, s.h.i.+ro walked over and patted her head.

Lyrica was a little taken aback and blushed lightly. However, that didn't stop her from enjoying the head pat.

"Well seems like our princess is entertaining her harem the moment she returns. Hahaha." Madison laughed slightly as she watched this happen from the tents.

s.h.i.+ro only chuckled slightly in response.

[Any news for me?] s.h.i.+ro asked.

"What kind of news? Good or bad."

[Both.]

"Well, I suppose we'll start with some good news. The city has calmed down a lot. The top families are settled down once again as Alura has woken up from her coma. Now they're having a price war so the citizens are partying. In addition to this, me and Lyrica are now both level 40." Madison replied.

[Congratulations. And now the bad?]

"The people from the slums are becoming more and more b.a.l.l.sy. We have had 14 cases of missing people during the time you were gone." Madison frowned in worry.

'Hmm… seems like I'll need to do some hunting tonight or else things will get worse.' s.h.i.+ro thought to herself.

[I'm going to do some clean up tonight. Hopefully, it'll distract the slums so we can have some peace and quiet.]

"Eh? s.h.i.+ro-nee are you doing some cleaning?" Kanae asked curiously.

"Your s.h.i.+ro-nee is going to clean up some trash." Lyrica replied in s.h.i.+ro's stead.

"Don't tire yourself out too much. You've just returned after all." Madison chipped in.

Both of them already know what s.h.i.+ro is like so they know that they can't dissuade her from killing a few trashes that had nothing better to do with their lives.

[After some cleaning up, we can just have a day out tomorrow. Just the four of us. Plus, I can show you a little something I've picked up in the dungeon.] s.h.i.+ro smiled as she couldn't wait to show them the Fire of Life.
