After the room was created, s.h.i.+ro allowed Revel to rest for a while before teleporting back to Nan Tian and resting in the command centre.

Laying on the chair, s.h.i.+ro sighed in relief since she was a little exhausted after clearing the runes on Revel's body.

Noticing that Nan Tian seemed a little out of it, s.h.i.+ro was somewhat curious.

Laying her head on the table, she stared at him.

"Mn? Is something up?" Nan Tian asked as s.h.i.+ro shook her head.

"Nothing is up with me. I was just wondering if you had something in your mind. You're not usually this quiet." s.h.i.+ro asked as Nan Tian thought about it for a moment before sighing.

"It's nothing much. I'm just a bit tired." He forced a smile but s.h.i.+ro only narrowed her eyes.

"You know, I've spent the most amount of time with you in the past few months. Do you think you can hide it? Something is clearly bothering you. If it's not something you wish to share you can just say so and I won't blame you." s.h.i.+ro said as Nan Tian scratched his cheek.

"Cough, it's nothing much really." He replied as his eyes darted around.

Saying nothing except for staring at him in silence, s.h.i.+ro waited until Nan Tian sighed.

"Promise me you won't laugh then." He said as s.h.i.+ro nodded.

"I can certainly try."

"Cough, I'm just a little jealous of Revel." Nan Tian said as he looked away with a small blush on his face.

Hearing this, s.h.i.+ro raised an eyebrow.

"You were jealous of his previous fate as a slave?"

"No not that. Just how you took care of him I suppose." Nan Tian scratched his cheek as s.h.i.+ro couldn't help but let out a small laugh.

"Ah sorry sorry, I didn't think you were someone that would get jealous like this." s.h.i.+ro waved her hand as Nan Tian shrugged.

"I'm still human and feeling jealousy is quite normal." Nan Tian replied as s.h.i.+ro nodded.

"It is and it is quite cute haha. Don't worry, I'm just helping the guy out. He's had his pride wounded by being enslaved to Thiria after all. He just needs a break."

"Mn." Nodding his head, Nan Tian tried to focus back on the paperwork he needed to do but couldn't focus since s.h.i.+ro was just staring at him.

"Do you need something?" Nan Tian asked as s.h.i.+ro smiled.

"Pft, jealous Lil' Tian." s.h.i.+ro laughed as Nan Tian wished that he didn't tell her now.

"Ok ok I'll stop so that you can focus on your work." s.h.i.+ro chuckled and patted his head.

"I'm not a child."

"But you did get jealous." s.h.i.+ro smirked.

Rolling his eyes, he focused on his work as s.h.i.+ro stopped staring and relaxed for a while.

Conjuring up a screen in front of her, she glanced at the crests that stopped changing. Each of Thiria's zones have been claimed by someone else and it was pretty much one per Queen. There was maybe one Queen who got two small zones but that was it.

Looking at the satellite footage of the manpower they had stationed at the zone figured that she didn't even need to send tier 6's except for becoming life lines.

'Out of all the Queens, Thiria is the most dangerous one that I can think of. Not many others can pose a threat to me. Though if I think about it, this is only the beginning of the new age so they haven't ama.s.sed crazy amounts of power just yet. A lot of things changed since I was able to make my own anchor. Now I am able to gain power just like them so I won't be left behind in terms of power like I was in the previous 'future'.' s.h.i.+ro thought to herself as her phone suddenly rang.

Sitting up, she widened her eyes in surprise.

"Holy sh*t Khionah actually knows how to send a text." s.h.i.+ro muttered before reading what she had sent.

Looking at how long it was, s.h.i.+ro was wondering if she was sending a letter rather than text.

Most of the text was talking about how the Queens have attacked Thiria after her confirmed retreat from this country. Her retreat opened up a void of power that was split amongst the other Queens with the main ones having details of their manpower explained in the text.

However, most of this was what she already knew so s.h.i.+ro skimmed it quickly.

Thinking about it for a moment, s.h.i.+ro sent her a text back, asking if she was ready for an a.s.sault on the zones tomorrow. They'll split it so that she'll take two of the main zones and two small zones while Khionah took the rest.

Seeing that her message was read immediately, s.h.i.+ro waited for a while but there was no response.

".. . Does she realise that I can see if she's read my text or not?" s.h.i.+ro muttered.

"Judging from her experience with technology, probably not." Nan Tian said as s.h.i.+ro closed her phone for now, It'll probably take a while before she receives a text back.

"Hmm… we should be able to take the remaining zones with how much manpower we have. It's just a case of protecting it after." Khionah muttered as she was typing away while also correcting what she typed so that it sounded better.

Watching this happen, Saphi couldn't take it any longer.

"Your highness, you have left Miss s.h.i.+ro on read for an hour now. Please respond soon. And as I have said earlier, while texts are similar to letters, they don't need to be the same size nor does it need to be elaborately worded. Miss s.h.i.+ro is asking if you are ready to partake in the attack. If you are, you can just reply with 'I'll be there' and then a question about the time of the attack. There is no need for greetings or hopes of receiving a reply soon." Saphi said as Khionah furrowed her brows.

"But that is too simple and crude."

"It is how things are now, your highness. Let me show you." Saphi said as she pulled out her own phone.

Sending a message to her friend, she showed Khionah the reply.

"K, I'll get the stuff ready when u come back. Yellow guy grinning and thumbs up." Khionah muttered before frowning.

"Can I really reply like that? Would that not seem too crude?"

"Yes you can and it won't seem crude. Most people write like this now." Saphi sighed.

"How should I reply then?"

After Nan Tian had finished his work, they were about to sleep when s.h.i.+ro received the text back finally.

"What the f*ck?" s.h.i.+ro couldn't help but mutter as she read the text.

"What happened?" Nan Tian asked as he glanced over.

Reading the message, he didn't know what to say as it was quite… Well he didn't know how to describe it.

[Kk, I'll be there. What time would it be? (Smirk Emoji) (Smirk Emoji) (Smirk Emoji)]

"Is she replying to my question for attacking or a one night hook up. What the f*ck is with the smirks?" s.h.i.+ro muttered in disbelief.

"Your highness! Why did you send that so quickly! That emote is not the right one!" Saphi widened her eyes as Khionah furrowed her brows in confusion.

"What do you mean it's not the right one. Doesn't s.h.i.+ro smirk like this? The emote is t.i.tled smirk so it should be correct." Khionah said as Saphi facepalmed.

"Your highness, that emote means…"

*CRACK!!!!

Upon hearing what it meant, Khionah accidently broke the phone as it was crushed in half.

".. . f*ck." Khionah cursed as that was not what she had wanted to say at all.

Facepalming alongside Saphi, she now had a new problem to deal with. The phone was broken.

However, they watched as the pieces started to repair themselves. A new message could be seen on the screen.

[You seem to be having some trouble with the phone. I've sent you some images that may help and it'll describe everything using terms that you are familiar with. Also, the time will be 9am, we'll storm all of the zones. If you need help protecting a zone I have some soldiers that I can send over to a.s.sist. We can talk more about this tomorrow.]

Reading this, Khionah glanced up at Saphi.

"Is she making fun of me?"

"No. I think at this point it's merely her trying to help you out. I think she discovered that you are not… proficient with technology." Saphi said as Khionah stayed silent.

".. . " Without saying anything, she started to read the images that s.h.i.+ro had sent which described the phone as a familiar that can instantly transmit short and concise messages quickly and how it can access a whole network of information without creating a scouting group to look for this information manually.

Reading all of her explanations, Khionah gradually understood how to use a phone properly.

Spending the rest of the night experimenting with the thing called the internet, she didn't get much sleep as the sun rose like usual and it was time for the large scale attack on the zones.
