Dusting her hands, Shiro glanced back at the city with a sad look in her eyes.

Without the gods controlling them, all of them stood in place not doing anything else. Closing her eyes, she activated Error and could see that a vital part of their current code was missing. Normally, she would keep them alive and try to find a way to fix it but from her knowledge as Anima, their state can only be healed through reincarnation.

The code was malformed and damaged, only through reincarnation can it be broken down and healed.

Aiming her palm at the city, she furrowed her brows before sighing. Dropping her arm, she decided to give it another try.

If she was still Anima, she would have given up and killed them regardless so that they could reincarnate. As the First Born of Destruction, that was part of her job. To send people to the void so that they could live their next life.

However, that was not Shiro.

Her experiences leading up to now did not allow her to just give up and kill a city of innocents.

Shaking her head, Shiro clasped her hands together.

"Sorry Error, I know you're resting but I might have to go a little overboard today." Shiro apologised as a pulse of red light erupted from her body, covering the entirety of the city.

Everyone that was touched by the light seemed to shimmer for a moment before an orb lit up on their chest.

Naturally, the same happened to Iris and Nine. While Nine was confused, Iris somewhat understood what was going on since fate was tied to the source code. While she may not know the existence of the source code, she could feel the shift in fate for everyone in the city.

Meanwhile, Shiro activated Analysis EX and observed their broken codes.

"I just need to simulate the process of reincarnation while preserving their current memories. Actually, perhaps its better to wipe out a little of what happened. After all, being enslaved to gods may cause them to do something out of their level. If they past the threshold, they'll receive a portion of my blessing and become fallen." Shiro muttered. She wanted them to have a 'fresh' start in a way.

"Perhaps give them the memory of being dead but revived after discovering their souls. That should allow me to send them to Asharia without any problems. If they're left to wander without protection, a lot of them will die again."

Furrowing her brows, Shiro raised her hand and red circuits shot out, gathering all of the source codes in front of her.

Since her perception has been boosted, she's able to act fast but the time she was allowed to act was short since she was pushing Error a bit too hard right now.

Taking a deep breath, she clenched her hand and shattered all of the source codes, essentially killing everyone in the city. Her human kill count shot up in an instant and her title was upgraded but Shiro wasn't bothered by that. The moment she reconstructed the source codes, her title will degrade back to what it was. After all, the way the title kept track was through the mark you left on their code. When you kill them properly, it'll mark you down as the killer thus increasing your score by one. But since she was reincarnating them, she wasn't technically killing them as she was the one granting them new life. Instead of being marked down as a killer in their code, she'll be marked down as something else entirely.

However, simulating the process of reincarnation is easier said than done.

"I am the First Born of Destruction. The essence of death and the primordial force that conquers all. With mine power, I shall send you to the void and rid you for your life. With mine blessing, you will be reborn free of your past burdens." Shiro shouted out. Those that heard her now would be unfamiliar with the language she was using as it was one that belonged only to Chaos and the First Gods born of her power.

9 pillars of light shot out around Shiro as they started to surround the city. Each pillar formed its own magic circle as Shiro could see parts of her body threatening to crumble from the stress. However, this was ok since she was merely simulating the spell. The Real one was much more powerful while this one had a limit.

Tier 9 Origin Magic Circle of Transmigration

*BOOM!!!!

Piercing through the clouds, the nine magic circles linked together to form a gate. A swirl of energy erupted from the gate as all of the source codes faded into the void before Shiro forcefully ended the skill. With the skill cut off, the gate disappeared and the source code was spat back out. However, since they passed the gates of transmigration, their code had already been repaired. When they were spat back out, it was as though the damage the three gods did to them never existed at all.

Origin Magic Force Transmigration of the Soul!

Changing the spell, Shiro quickly edited the source code to remove certain memories before releasing her grip and allowed them to drift back to the owner's body.

Feeling Error's power grow weak, Shiro smiled apologetically before floating down to the ground and panted heavily from her use of mana. To forcefully activate a tier 9 magic while her own divinity was sealed on top of using a portion of her divinity was not kind to her. If not for the fact that Error was helping her directly interact with the code without her asking the system, it would have never worked.

In front of her, Shiro could see a figure appear with a stern expression. Glancing up, Shiro was pleasantly surprised to see a familiar face.

"Admin 4, I didn't think you would pay me a visit." Shiro smiled.

Pausing in his steps, Admin 4 blinked his eyes in surprise.

"How do you know me? If I'm not wrong, mortals, even someone as abnormal as you should not know the existence of Administrators. Where did you learn such information? Or did you learn of us through interacting with the system?" Admin 4 asked as Shiro's smile froze.

Furrowing her brows, Shiro wanted to glance at his source code but was unable to since Error couldn't be activated right now.

However, while he may look like Admin 4, his aura and attitude was completely different.

"Well setting that aside, I'm here to check something." Admin 4 shook his head as he approached Shiro.

Before she could react, he tapped her on the head and several holographic panels appeared before him.

Glancing through it, he muttered to himself a few times

"It's no wonder. I thought it was strange that you can activate such an abnormal spell." Admin 4 said as he started at Shiro.

Thinking about it for a moment, he took his spare hand out of his pocket.

"The power balance is hindered. The system has given you too many benefits. Even for someone of your identity, this cannot be-"

"If you carry on your idea of punishment the system will not be kind. You know the system does things for a reason, step down old friend." A voice rang out as another figure tapped Admin 4 on the shoulder.

"Go back for now, I've been assigned to her for the foreseeable future." Admin 8 sighed as Admin 4 frowned but nodded his head.

Glancing back at Shiro, he disappeared.

Shaking his head, Admin 8 looked at Shiro.

"I'll present you with your reward for using such a powerful spell. It's information rather than an item and it may help you with what you're trying to accomplish." Admin 8 smiled before turning serious.

"North Pole, Egg, be there when it hatches."

After saying what he needed to say, Admin 8 turned around and prepared to walk away but Shiro stopped him.

"What happened to Admin 4?"

"Forced Reset." Admin 8's response was quick as he disappeared.

Hearing this, Shiro frowned and guessed that it was probably because he helped her out a little too much. She was wondering why he was dressed so formally during their last video call. It turned out that he was being reset.

Taking a deep breath, Shiro sighed.

Once she improved her balance between creation and destruction, she should be able to interact with the admins more and perhaps help Admin regain his previous self.

"It's just a matter of getting to that stage." Shiro muttered.

After forcefully invoking the power of a tier 9 spell, her level had increased slightly due to her improved control over creation.

Reaching level 350, Shiro's class stayed the same but there was now a new skill.

[Code Surgeon Passive]

A skill that improved her control and access to a person's source code. It was what she needed right now to speed up her progress. Plus, with Error out of commission for a bit, this was going to suffice.
