Making their way back to the city, s.h.i.+ro paused as she turned around and glanced towards the crests.

Furrowing her brows, she watched as Thiria took over two more zones. With most of the zones under her control, she'll need to completely demolish those forces in order for her to come out on top.

"That doesn't look too good." Nan Tian frowned as s.h.i.+ro agreed.

"Mn, perhaps I should shred some of her defences.. . No, that would warn her ahead of time. Hmm…" Tapping her chin, s.h.i.+ro glanced up at the sky.

"Since most of the zones have a barrier, I should get rid of them. Even if they know we're coming, they won't have anything to help defend." s.h.i.+ro muttered as a smile formed on her lips.

Seeing this smile, both Attie and Yin felt a chill down their spine since they knew s.h.i.+ro was about to cause quite a bit of destruction.

"Follow me, we're going to get front row seats. Let me give Khionah a call as well. Let her see some of my capabilities. Should be enough to… persuade her to join my side." s.h.i.+ro chuckled.

Snapping her fingers, a portal appeared in front of them.

Entering the portal, they found themselves standing on top of the command tower in the middle of the city.

Stretching her body, s.h.i.+ro walked forward and slammed her hand down.

Suddenly, two rows of pillars appeared around her as each of them had densely packed runes etched to the surface.

Pus.h.i.+ng her hand out, mana flared as a barrier was formed around her.

"Now, this might take quite a bit of mana so a barrier is needed to keep it a surprise. Remember Attie, if you want to surprise someone make sure you have a barrier that conceals your mana. Even if it breaks later, you have to make sure they have little to no time to prepare defences ok?" s.h.i.+ro said as Attie nodded his head and watched carefully.

Flexing her fingers on her right hand, holograms appeared as the three of them could see the world with countless satellites lighting up above their current location.

[Initiating the Argus Satellite Network.]

[Master Key Accepted. Entering Orbital Cannon Mode.]

Watching the holographic warnings appear on the screen, Attie could see the satellites change as parts started to transform.

Nan.o.bots converged together to form barrels while mana coils could be spotted in the back.

"Let's see… 30% should be fine considering how easy it was for me to destroy the barrier in this place. Ah but I still need to pierce the barrier surrounding Earth. I need to make sure it's a drill so that the whole thing is still intact. If there are too many holes, the thing might shatter." s.h.i.+ro muttered.

She wasn't sure why the barrier was there in the first place but she knew that it would probably be better if she didn't break the barrier. She needed something that would allow her attack to pa.s.s through without conflicting with it.

Thinking about it for a moment, she activated her a.n.a.lysis skill and glanced up toward the sky.

Focusing her gaze on the barrier in the sky, she pulled up all the information she had and made some adjustments to the attack.

Normally, for her orbital cannon, she would have countless magic circles stacked with one another until the attack reaches the surface. That way, it would have as much power as it can gather. However, since she was making sure she didn't just vaporize everything in the cannon's path, she had to hold back a little.

Plus, she wanted to keep the barrier intact so most of the magic circle would be used to make a path through the barriers.

Reaching out with her hand, hundreds of tier 6 magic circles burst out around her.

Watching this spectacle, Atesh couldn't help but smile.

Even if she wasn't a.s.sisted by his pa.s.sive, he wouldn't be able to attack her at all should they battle. Unlike his spar with Saphi, he would be on the losing side.

s.h.i.+ro's mental calculations to make hundreds of tier 6 magic circles was unparalleled. While she is stationary, there were quite a few that were dedicated to protecting her too. So unless he was charging up a powerful attack, he won't be breaking past her defences any time soon.

If she's on the move, he should forget about getting a hit in unless he was willing to give up an arm or a leg for the counter.

'Mum's in a league of her own like usual.' Atesh thought with a chuckle.

As for Yin…

'I'm pretty sure if I can make that many magic circles I'll be able to roast a whole building worth of meat for a barbeque if I want. I have the power but I can't control it that well so the roast would be uneven and it'll taste bad.'

With both Attie and Yin watching intently, s.h.i.+ro prepared the next stage of her spell.

Snapping her fingers, a bird's eye view of Vrish' Lir appeared in front of her as markers could be seen on all of the zones that have been captured by Thiria.

Scanning the zones, she could see that they were quite densely packed with monsters. Hardly any humans could be spotted but as much as she wants to just rain h.e.l.l on the place, there was a chance that the monsters want to leave her control. After all, Nitha was like that.

Once the power was adjusted, s.h.i.+ro clasped her hands together and smiled.

"Time to give Khionah a call."

Investigating the strange phone in front of her, Khionah was spooked when it suddenly started to vibrate and hum a tune.

"Saphi! What is it doing?" Khionah asked as Saphi glanced down and saw that s.h.i.+ro was calling.

"It's Miss s.h.i.+ro, I believe she is calling you right now. To answer, you just need to swipe right on that icon, your highness." Saphi explained as Khionah stared at the screen for a moment.

"Wait swipe? I thought you only needed to tap?"

"It depends but you may want to answer soon." Saphi sighed.

"Right. Ahem- wait, how should I answer?"

Explaining the actions of answering a phone, Saphi watched as Khionah finally swiped on the accept call.

"h.e.l.lo, this is Khionah speaking."

"Took you a while to answer. Are you busy?" s.h.i.+ro asked with a raised eyebrow.

"No, do you need me for something? Calling so soon." Khionah replied.

"Well I don't need you right now but you might want to look out the window. Just a small demonstration before our attack tomorrow. I'll be taking care of all the barriers in the zones."

Hearing this, Khionah walked towards her window.

"I'm watching."

Just as she said this, she watched as a layer of magic circles lit up in the sky. Each of the magic circles felt like they could eradicate a city as she couldn't help but feel intimidated by the amount of mana they were radiating.

Suddenly, the surroundings darkened as pillars of light descended from the skies, shattering the barriers in an instant as a wave of dust could be seen expanding out from the impact zone.

Quickly swiping with her hand, she reinforced her zone with a magical barrier of its own but the impact still caused the place to shake.

*BOOM!!!!!!!

Hearing the sound of the explosion, Khionah furrowed her brows and cleared the dust. Seeing the barriers shattered to pieces, she was speechless. All of Thiria's zones were now completely exposed without any defence.

"That was quite the show." Khionah said as s.h.i.+ro chuckled.

"Don't be surprised just yet, I did mention that this was a small demonstration. I'll notify you when we're ready to launch the main attack tomorrow."

Nodding her head, Khionah placed the phone away from her before whispering to Saphi.

"How do I end the call?"

"You press this icon, your highness." Saphi whispered back as Khionah ended the call.

Hearing what the two had just said, s.h.i.+ro was stunned speechless for a moment. Forget about how her spell had just demolished several barriers that were supposed to protect a place from 80% of attacks, she was more curious about the fact that Khionah didn't know how to end a call.

"Does… does she not know how to use a phone?" s.h.i.+ro asked as Attie, Yin and Nan Tian glanced at each other before shrugging.

"Seems like it. She took a while to pick up after all." Nan Tian said as s.h.i.+ro thought about it for a moment.

"Then if she accepts this alliance, how do you think she'll react to this city?" s.h.i.+ro asked, pointing at the shopping centre where most things are technology based. If Khionah struggled with receiving and ending a call, she wasn't sure what to expect would happen if she tried to browse the catalogue of the supermarket.

"I'm sure it should be fine, no? Just give her a manual on how most things work and it'll sort itself out." Yin shrugged.

"I hope so. Otherwise communicating with her using the things in this city might be annoying. Perhaps I should use familiars with her." s.h.i.+ro muttered, unsure of how she should approach this.
