Receiving the blessing, Niphim could feel a warm energy spreading through her body. Unlike the cold feeling she had whenever the Raven did this, Shiro's blessing was like the sun, dispelling her worries.
"I won't do much aside from giving you this weapon to help you out. If you need support, just tell me." Shiro smiled and threw a hand cannon towards her. It was the same hand cannon that had an upgraded core embedded with the crystal. Shooting it into the Raven's body would allow her to absorb his life force.
Nodding her head, Niphim looked at the gun and guessed that she would need to pull the trigger for it to fire.
Conjuring a sword of shadows into her hand, she dashed towards where the Raven would be.
"You have quite the trust in her if you believe that Niphim can kill me." The Raven's voice rang out as tendrils of darkness intercepted Niphim's path.
"Well you have to give the girl some trust. Plus, someone on the path of revenge might show you some surprising things." Shiro chuckled as she stared at Raven who was flickering between dimensions.
"Your evaluation of her is too high."
"Perhaps. But that's up to her." Shiro said as she watched Niphim cut down the tentacles with ease.
Adjusting her footwork, she avoided the tentacles narrowly while slashing them with her sword.
It was as though she was in the middle of a ballroom dancing to a tune while her eyes were focused on her target.
Aiming the gun at the tentacle to her side, she pulled the trigger and fired a shot.
The recoil and the force behind the shot surprised her, but she managed to adjust herself just in time.
*BANG!!
Piercing into the tentacle, it was crystalised in an instant before shattering apart.
"You found the crystals as well." The Raven called out as a flock of birds shot towards Niphim.
"I discovered it a while ago in the far North. Though considering the fact that you didn't know this, I'd say you haven't visited there recently."
"Well with that egg there, I'm not eager to find out who the parents are." The Raven chuckled before appearing behind Niphim while she was dealing with the birds.
Immediately turning around, Niphim jammed the gun against his body and pulled the trigger.
*BANG!!!
Forcing him to transform into a flock of ravens once more, Niphim clicked her tongue and pivoted on her foot.
Conjuring up a wall of shadows around her, she stomped her foot down.
Black runes spread out like a web, travelling up the bodies of the tentacles and draining them of their power.
Adjusting her senses to focus on mana, Shiro noticed that Niphim was siphoning their mana into herself to empower her own stats. With all the buffs added up on her body now, she was roughly twice as strong as before.
"Come out here you coward!" Niphim shouted out in anger since the Raven refused to face her properly. Instead, he sent waves after waves of disposable grunts towards her.
"Seeing as how you're so afraid of fighting her, I suppose I should make it a fair fight." Shiro said as she clasped her hands together.
Closing her eyes, divine runes appeared around her. Weaving together to form needles, they shot out and disappeared.
"ARG!!!!" Crying out in pain, the Raven was thrown against the wall. On his body, an ever-changing runic pattern could be seen.
"I was holding back a little earlier. Don't think you can escape so easily this time." Shiro smirked as the Raven frowned.
However, he didn't believe her. If he could get out once, he could do it again. Just as he tried to escape, the runes expanded across his body and emitted a golden glow that caused his skin to burn.
Sucking in a sharp breath, he glared at Shiro.
Her runes were ever changing since they would lock onto him the moment he tried to leave. They were adaptive to anything he did.
She was correct, he couldn't leave.
Narrowing his eyes, he decided to kill the caster. If Shiro died, he'd be able to leave.
Flexing his fingers, several spears shot towards her in a separate dimension in an attempt to surprise her.
However, before they could hit, Nan Tian flickered in front of Shiro and grabbed all of the spears before crushing them in his hands.
"No harming her in front of me now." Nan Tian chuckled before throwing one of the spears back.
Dismissing it, the Raven wondered about what to do when he suddenly felt a surge of killing intent behind him.
Turning around, he watched as Niphim's purple eyes glowed in the darkness as the sword cleaved towards his head.
Understanding that he couldn't run, he gritted his teeth and reached out towards her throat. Grabbing her, he slammed her against the ground.

However, the killing intent didn't disappear, Niphim faded into a puddle of shadows while a sword cut down his back.
Grabbing his head, Niphim aimed the gun barrel at the back and pulled the trigger.
Before she could fire however, a tentacle of shadows appeared and grabbed her by the waist.
Slamming her against the wall, the tentacle formed a blade and cut towards her.
Diving into the shadow realm to avoid being killed, Niphim glared at the Raven.
"I didn't think I'd be forced to this stage. I'll admit, with what you can do, you certainly pose a… certain threat to me as a god. However, if you think a god can be killed like this, you are dead wrong." The Raven narrowed his eyes.
Clasping his hands together, black lightning flickered around his body as the golden runes shattered to pieces.
Divine energy erupted from his body as the shadows in the room started to twist.
Feeling danger all around them, Shiro furrowed her brows.
'As expected, a god can't be killed so easily.'
"Gaia, anything I should know when killing a god?" Shiro shouted out while dashing towards Niphim's direction.
[Goddess Gaia states that a god cannot be killed unless you eliminate the core of their being. She doesn't know whether or not this Raven is an avatar or not since his aura is rather strange so you should definitely be careful. Error should be able to bypass most of his defences but getting him to the stage where he can't protect the core is going to be hard. Also, he may pull you into his own realm where his power is at its strongest. See if you can anchor all of yourself to earth to avoid this.]
Reading this, Shiro nodded her head.
"Thanks for the tip Gaia." Shiro smiled.
Flickering next to Niphim, she slapped a seal on her back as golden runes appeared on her arm.
"This will stop him from isolating you in his realm." Shiro said as she healed her with life fire.
Snapping her fingers, the same runes appeared on Nan Tian and Khionah.
"Don't think about running." The Raven said as darkness wrapped around the entire room, preventing any form of light to enter.
"Sorry, if you want to stop me from leaving then you have to do much better than this." Shiro grinned.
Clasping her hands together, all four of them disappeared in a flash.
Landing roughly on the ice, Shiro glanced back at the split which revealed the lab. It was now covered with a bubbling pool of darkness that slowly welled up.
A black sludge covered raven figure could be seen as the beady red eyes glared at them.
"If I can't drag you in then I'll project my influence outwards!" He shouted out as darkness spread out as far as the eye could see.
Tentacles erupted out from around them as it reached high into the sky.
"You know, just because I am a tier 6 being doesn't mean I can't contest against someone like you. I've prepared plenty." Shiro smirked as she slammed her hand down.
A giant tier 7 magic circle appeared as pillars of light shot down from space, destroying the tentacles in an instant.
Firing all of the satellites she had above this area, she activated their secondary function. This was something that she had prepared previously after receiving her skill, Machine Goddess Decent.
Large towers of nanobots suddenly shot down from space.
*BANG!!!!
Crushing the ice beneath them, they planted themselves around the area.
These towers were mana conductors that funnelled the ambient mana towards Shiro. The most important part was that each of them had an anchor inside. While it did indeed weaken Shiro for a short period, the long term effects were much greater. After all, right now, she received a passive increase of 40% to her stats along with 40% system assistance. With how much range her towers now covered, it was not an exaggeration to say that the entire area was now her domain.
Feeling the mana funnel towards her, Shiro smiled.
"Niphim, this should allow you to get a bonus as well."
Designating Niphim as an allied Queen or rather, Empress, she also received a 40% boost to her stats.
Feeling the energy flowing through her body, Niphim was speechless. How many buffs can she apply? From their short battle earlier, Niphim knew that Shiro's base stats were already crazy. But with this, she was in a realm of her own.
Walking towards the Raven, Shiro summoned her sword.
"Are you ready to die?" She grinned.
