Chapter 361 Upgrading Attunements
Quickly sorting out everything, Jonathan had everyone sit around the table in the living room.
Jasmine crossed her legs while occasionally glancing at Ryota who hugged a body pillow and kept looking at Shiro and Lisandra with curiosity.
As for the two of them, Shiro sat behind Lisandra while making sure that as little of her figure could be seen.
'How cute…' Lisandra and Ryota thought in their minds.
"So anyways, miss Nytri here is going to be commissioning us to take her to Kyoto Japan. The reward is 10 Silver Erins and a level 100 piece of armour." Jonathan said as both Ryota and Jasmine widened their eyes.
"Pft!! Wait what!? Miss, are you really giving us 10 silver Erins!? You know how much that is?!?!?" Jasmine asked in shock.
"Ah mn. I can only give it once so it'll be split between the three of you. As for the level 100 equipment, I can give each of you 1 piece." Shiro nodded and replied quietly. Being near a masochist like Ryota made her extremely uncomfortable.
Flexing her fingers, she took out 10 silver Erins and showed it in her palm.
"Alright, the reward is confirmed. Shall we leave now then? We'll have to go for quite a trip in order to reach one of the teleport shrines that we can use to get to Japan." Jonathan nodded.
"What about supplies and camping stuff? Don't we need to get that too?" Jasmine asked.
"Miss Nytri, seems like we'll have to go for a supply run. Would that be ok with you?" Jonathan asked.
"Yeah that's fine." Shiro nodded while coming out from behind Lisandra.
Going down the elevator once more, Shiro made sure to be as far away from Ryota as possible.
"Say say, can I call you Nytri-chan? Ny-chan?" Ryota asked with a smile while Shiro kept backing off.
Tugging on Lisandra's sleeves, Shiro gestured for her to be her shield.
"Mum I've already dealt with that Isaac guy last time remember? How both you and sis jumped into the rift and left me to deal with him alone." Lisandra 'smiled' and reminded Shiro of a certain masochist back in Cairosa.
"*Cough!*" Shiro paused since that was indeed the truth.
"Wait, did Lisa just call Ny chan, mum?" Ryota paused.
"Ah right I forgot to tell you. They're mother and daughter." Jonathan nodded.

"Hmm young milf? No, that's not right. Lolibaba? Nah she ain't a loli. Hmm what a paradox." Ryota mused.
"Jonathan me and Lisa will see you at the door." Shiro called out as he didn't want to hear how Ryoma would class her and instantly pulled Lisandra away into the rift.
"Great, you scared her away." Jasmine rolled her eyes at Ryota.

Going around the city to buy some supplies, the party then rented a mount so that their travels would be sped up.
"Our destination is a city called Ermis. It's a city of dwarves, it is also a great place to look for some equipment and materials." Jonathan smiled as Shiro nodded.
Getting on the back of the mount, Jonathan, Jasmine and Ryota sat at the front while she and Lisandra sat at the back.
Crossing her legs, Shiro closed her eyes.
"Lisa, keep a watch for me. I'm gonna try turning some of my attunements to tier 4."
"Got it mum. Good luck." Lisandra replied with a smile.
Entering her mana realm, Shiro saw that Iziuel had decided to stay on the Wood Element island.
'I suppose that's to be expected.' She mused to herself and floated over to the ice island.
"Hey Shiro, seems like you're going to upgrade your attunements now." Iziuel smiled and gave her a small wave.
"Mn. Since I'm not really doing anything while on the mount, it's better that I use it for this than to interact with that Masochist." Shiro replied.
"I see."
"My queen, you're really bad with Masochists aren't you? They're like the bane of your existence." Nimue giggled as she appeared behind Shiro.
"Yeah yeah I know. You would think with my personality that a masochist would be a perfect match but nope, they just freak me the f*ck out." Shiro shrugged.
"Truly a paradox. If you get a masochist as a partner, you'll get freaked out by their tendencies. If you get a normal person, they'll get freaked out by your tendencies." Nimue shook her head.
"The future looks bleak o v.i.r.g.i.n queen." She teased.
"Tch, so what. Hmph, as if they deserve this queen's first time." Shiro scoffed before floating away while trying to hide her blush.
Looking at Shiro with a smile, both Nimue and Iziuel glanced at each other and shook their heads. It seems like this queen of theirs will remain a maiden for a long time.
"Anyways, let's see. If I remember correctly, to upgrade my element to tier 4, I'll need to tap into its potential and get it to evolve so that it's more powerful.
"Since Astral Ice has already been evolved quite a bit, it seems like this won't be easy." Shiro muttered while landing on the ice island.
Crouching down, she pressed her fingers on the ground and had her mana envelop the entire island.
Nimue and Iziuel watched at the side since they knew that this would be a delicate moment where each step had to be taken with caution.
Shiro then focused her mind and continued to insert large quantities of mana into the island.
Soon, icy mist started to flood out as the mana spring started to freeze around the island. Expanding in size, the island started change with mountains and glaciers being formed around the area.
"Fuu…" Breathing out a mouthful of cold air, Shiro opened her eyes and looked up into the sky.
A fissure started to form as a galaxy could be seen. Filled with an array of stars, soft starlight was reflected off of the ice, sending a myriad of lights dancing through the island.
Feeling a small barrier of sorts, Shiro frowned as she narrowed her eyes.
Condensing a handful of mana into her palms, she slammed it against the ground.
"HA!" She shouted out as a pulse of energy spread throughout the entire island.
[Upgrade complete. Tier 3 Astral Ice – Tier 4 Cosmic Ice]
"Hmm… this 38% repair on my body makes the process quite easy huh?" Shiro smiled as she had prepared herself for a fight and a half. Looking back, she saw Nimue's shocked gaze along with Iziuel's confused one.
"Eh? What's wrong?" Shiro tilted her head.
"What's wrong!? It's simply illogical is what's wrong! How the hell did you do it so fast!? Where's the challenge? Where's the mini boss?!" Nimue retorted while quickly flying around the island to check for abnormalities.
After a while of flying, she struggled to find a fault and had to admit that it had a very stable foundation, meaning that everything was done perfectly.
"What did you do exactly?" She asked with a sigh.
"Well I did what I needed to do. I just flooded the island with my own mana and spurred on my attunements potential." Shiro replied with a small frown. She didn't know why Nimue was so shocked.
". . .Oh my god, if that's the case, I think you killed the boss before it could even fully form with that mana of yours. You overloaded it past it's capacity." Nimue replied with a twitch in her smile. She couldn't believe that Shiro had just brute forced her way through an attunement.
"Huh, handy. In that case then it might be easier to do the rest of my attunements then what I had expected." Shiro smiled and looked towards the other islands.
Cracking her knuckles, she floated over to them as she was determined to get each of them to tier 4 by the end of this trip to Ermis.
After around 2 hours, all of her attunements reached Tier 4 and had been upgraded to the next stage of their element.
