Chapter 1223: Tracking Her Down

{Lyrica is here?!} Nimue widened her eyes in surprise.

'I'm not too sure. It might be Lyrica from the side of creation.' Shiro shrugged. Since there was a 'Shiro' from the side of creation, there was naturally going to be a Lyrica here as well.

Thinking about it for a moment, Shiro decided to try something out.

{No.} Nimue interjected as she could already tell what Shiro was planning.

'Pft it'll be fine~ Plus I got an idea on how to mask myself so don't worry.' Shiro laughed as Nimue squinted her eyes.

{Weren't you the one who said you didn't want to draw too much attention to yourself???? You realise that tracking someone through the whole of this world draws quite a bit of attention to yourself?}

'Didn't say I got it covered? Don't worry so much Nimue.' Shiro said dismissively as she jumped up and made her way to the tallest building within the city.

Closing her eyes for a moment, Shiro opened them once more as the world disassembled into lines of code.

Holding the map in front of her, Shiro traced the codes to find out where it had been created.

Focusing her mind, Shiro filtered out every single piece of useless information she didn't need since she only wanted to know where it had been made. If she can find out where it was made, she can track down 'Lyrica's' code. If she finds that out, she'll be able to see if it's the same Lyrica from her world or not.

Shiro could feel a headache gnawing at her mind as she scoured through the history of the map. Every revision, every use, every person that held this map brushed past her mind.

Eventually, she found the start point. The moment in time when this map was created.

'From the look of things, Lyrica wasn't directly involved with the creation of this item. It was mass-produced and she provided the map. If I locate the factory where this was produced, I should be able to find some clues.' Shiro thought to herself as she closed her eyes and let them rest.

Rubbing her eyelids with a slight frown on her face, Shiro felt like she had not given her eyes any rest for days on end even though it was just a quick moment.

{You're pushing your eyes a bit too much with that ability. Try to limit it if you can. I'm trying my best at keeping your eyes functional, so I'd appreciate it if you didn't give me more work to do.} Nimue sighed while helping Shiro fix her body.

'Yeah, sorry about that. However, we're not done just yet.'

{Huh?} Nimue blinked as she felt a sudden chill.

'If I look for the factory then track her down, it'll take a bit too long to resolve. But if I was to, let's say… Search for every moment 'Lyrica' was mentioned in the codes?' Shiro said as a smirk crept up on her face.

'Naturally, I don't need to know the full history. I just need to find certain parts and try to 'track' where she's been. That way, it'll eventually lead to where she is now.'

{You do realise that even though you're saying you're just going to track Lyrica, in order to do so you're essentially reading the history of the land, right? Do you even comprehend how much pressure that puts on your own brain? Even if it's you, I doubt you can handle all of this information.} Nimue glared as she felt like her vein was about to pop from both anger and stress.

After all, she was the one who had to make sure Shiro's body didn't break down, including her brain.

'Oh I know. And I know it'll be fine~ You got this.' Shiro grinned and gave her a wink.

Without waiting for Nimue to lecture her more, Shiro slammed her hands down as she summoned Vinri in front of her to channel creation energy.

Sparks of lightning flickered around her, destroying some of the debris scattered around.

Focusing her mind, Shiro created four large satellites using a mix of nanobots and creation energy. While they're not as advanced as the satellites back in the world of destruction, they'll suffice for what she wanted to do.

Infusing Error's energy into all four of them, she snapped her finger and sent all them flying through the sky.

'In order to not let them get discovered, I need to mask their energy signals with the energy of this world. Make it seem like they're part of this world rather than a foreign entity.' Shiro thought to herself as circuits appeared on her arms.

Focusing her sight on the satellites, she manipulated their code just slightly so that if people were to send out their senses, they wouldn't sense anything odd. She didn't need to do a full rewrite, just something akin to a blanket to hide its true nature.

As the satellites breached the atmosphere, Shiro could feel several 'eyes' sweep past the satellites but eventually disappeared.

'It worked.' Shiro grinned as this was just the beginning. Sending the satellites up was just the preparation phase.

'Get ready Nimue~' Shiro laughed.

{!"£&^%£"&^% I KNOW.} Nimue cursed as she started to circulate her mana in preparation for the chaos that was about to happen.

Seeing that Nimue was ready, Shiro activated Error and the world lost its colour.

Each of the satellites worked as her eyes as a miniature model of this current world appeared in front of her.

Taking a deep breath, she overlayed the map that Lyrica had made over it to see the differences.

The first step was locating the spot where the device was created. Since she had scanned the codes earlier, it was rather simple for her to locate it. One of the satellites orbited the world until it was directly above the factory.

Firing a concentrated beam of energy, a flood of information entered Shiro's mind as it caused to stumble back before she quickly regained her footing. Follow current s on Fɪre.net

The beam would take a quick imprint of all of the code within the area and fire it into Shiro's brain so that she could filter through it all.

{F*CK!}

Hearing Nimue cursing in the distance, Shiro focused her mind and scanned through the code. Dismissing everything she didn't need, she eventually found a single trace of Lyrica.

Quickly memorising the code for that interaction, Shiro canceled the spell immediately. Collapsing on her back, Shiro felt extremely lightheaded as a small trail of blood could be seen dripping from her nose.

{TAKE A BREAK. WE'LL CONTINUE THIS LATER.} Nimue shouted as Shiro nodded her head.

Even though she was reckless, she knew that pushing more than this would be stupid. She'll rest herself for a bit while taking the civilians to the closest safe house. Once they reach the safe house, any who still want to join her can join her while those who wanted safety could remain at the sage house.

Plus, that'll give her some time to digest the information she had just received in order to properly track where Lyrica was.

Once she had a moment to rest, Shiro started to make her way back to the civilians. Upon arriving, she could see that a few of them had lost hope in their eyes, especially Gazir.

Staying silent for a moment, Shiro sighed.

"I will take you all to the closest shelter. With the technology that I've seen, you might be able to find a register or something of that kind. You might find who you're looking for or their descendants. I don't know. If you wish to be reincarnated, I will grant you that wish." Shiro said as they thought to themselves for a bit.

Most of them chose to decide after they reach the safe house while some chose to be reincarnated.

Helping those who wanted to reincarnate, Shiro started to lead the rest of them to the safe house.

"I found this in the ruins. A highly advanced map showing you where the safe houses are as well as your current location. It also shows the danger zones for you to avoid. You can take it since I've already memorised it." Shiro said as she offered the map to Gazir.

Seeing that he had no reaction, Shiro scratched her head for a moment before briefly glancing at the group.

"If! And I mean this as a big IF. If they have a register of the people who are still alive, I can take a moment to mark down their energy and put markers on the map for you. That way you can track them if you want." Shiro sighed as this seemed to reignite some hope in their eyes.

Giving the map to Gazir, Shiro started to lead the group once more.

However, she suddenly noticed that the world around her seemed to have stopped. Everyone was frozen in place except for her.

"Time stop…" Shiro frowned as this was something similar to what she could do.

"Why are you here." A small voice rang out as Shiro instantly recognised it.

"That's all you have to say after almost killing me last time?" Shiro rolled her eyes as she looked up.

Above her, a flickering phantom could be seen. Their body was in tatters, but Shiro could still recognise the white hair. It was her own after all.

The 'Shiro' from the side of creation.
