Shiraori

Shiraori (白織), more commonly known as Shiro (白) or White, is the Tenth Demon Army commander and a newly transcended Administrator of the System. After the events of the battle with the G-Fleet, Kumoko was forced to transcend the limits of the System and become a god, losing access to the assistance granted by the System, but in return gaining an incredible amount of energy at her disposal as well as the ability to create unique magic via conjuring.

Appearance
Shiraori has the appearance of a stunningly beautiful young girl with ghost-white skin and long silver-white hair; she is an albino. She keeps her extraordinarily long, flowing, straight hair loose on the top of her head but from her neck down she styles it in an extremely large braid. Her eyes are unique, shining a bright ruby-red. Inside her two human eyes are four small arachnid pupils, which makes it look like she has five eyes on each side. Her clothes, created from a her own dimensional thread, consist of a one-piece dress with wide-open sleeves and a large hood.

Personality
"No matter what anyone says, I won't accept any ending that doesn't leave the Demon Lord smiling."

- Shiraori, internal thoughts

Shiraori is an introvert due her having little to no experience dealing with people due to her early life of seclusion in the Great Elroe Labyrinth. She can read people's thoughts and intentions well, and responds to their speech in her head, but often fails to communicate these thoughts with words. She has slight mannerisms that people close to her catch on eventually, but she does her utmost to avoid interacting with others whenever possible.

The only time her speech is clear is when she is in shock or drunk. Most other times, she speaks in broken phrases that are just enough to get her message across. It is also important to note that she cannot hold her liquor and blacks out almost instantly. During this time she behaves in outrageous ways, and her extraordinary power makes it impossible to contain any situation she may find herself in.

It takes a while, but Shiraori eventually warms up enough to Ariel to be able to speak to her like a normal person. This occurs after she has a "change of heart" and decides to fully commit herself to helping the Demon Lord with her goals. This is not the case with others, though; she still ends up relying on her mannerisms or others that are close to her such on Ariel, Sophia, Merazophis, or Wrath to relay her thoughts and goals.

Although she rarely speaks, she likes to write. Since coming to the realization that verbal communication is too difficult, she prefers to communicate with others through writing instead. She ends up writing several books worth of information about the System, her plans, and the state of the world.

As the teacher of Sophia and Wrath, she drills into them the idea that stats aren't everything, and that strong individuals should never underestimate those below them.

Synopsis
Shiraori's first appearance is from the perspective of Balto, who suspects that she is a Ruler. She is also present when the Demon Lord picks up the Hero's scarf in the aftermath of the Human-Demon Great War. In Hyrince's recollection of the battle, she is described as a pure-white girl who leisurely walked onto the battlefield and obliterated the Hero and his party with a Rot Attack.

After the war, Shiraori rides atop an Arch Taratect with Ariel while travelling through the Great Garam Forest. She seems concerned for the reincarnations about to be caught up in the ensuing battle with the elves, but Ariel tells her not to worry.

Origin
Shiraori's original form is that of Kumoko, a spider monster from the Great Elroe Labyrinth. Kumoko became Shiraori when she eats a GMA Bomb at the core of the G-Fleet in a panic because it was going to explode, thinking maybe she could digest and absorb it in a similar fashion to Ariel's Ruler Skill, Gluttony. The GMA Bomb was being used as a generator to power the G-Fleet and its army of G-Tris and G-Tetras. These autonomous robots utilize MA Energy as a power source. This technology was what led to the past destruction of the world and the necessity of the System, so a massive battle involving all the major players in the world ensued to make sure the G-Fleet and its army was put down for good, with Shiraori and and Ariel being centerpieces to stopping it, which resulted in Kumoko swallowing the GMA bomb. After absorbing the MA Energy from the GMA Bomb when it explodes inside her stomach, Kumoko reaches Divinity Expansion Level 10 and undergoes deification, transcends the System, and is reborn as Shiraori after 47 days.

When she awakens, she comes face to face with Güliedistodiez, Ariel, Sophia, Merazophis, and the Puppet Taratect Sisters. Güliedistodiez quickly realizes what has happened and explains to her that she has successfully become a god and escaped the confines of the System, but due to the unusual way she entered deification by using the system she has been left weakened due to being unable to use her energy via skills. Shiraori is effectively a normal human with none of the previous enhancements she had as a monster inside the System. Ariel decides to protect Shiraori until she learns to utilize the tremendous energy she now possesses.

Journey
Now completely helpless and reliant on the rest of the group for her needs, Shiraori laments her uselessness as they travel through the Renxandt Empire into the Mystic Mountains to get to the Demon Realm. She has little stamina and can barely even walk because she was so used to walking on eight legs. This helplessness leaves her thoroughly depressed while the rest of the party protects her. Sael is specifically assigned as her bodyguard when the others need to leave Shiraori alone, and this almost leads to some serious issues due to how literal Sael takes her orders.

When they finally leave the Renxandt Empire and begin travelling through the Mystic Mountains, they come face to face with Wrath, who is currently berserk under the influence of the Wrath skill. They also accidentally kill an Anogratch; in the ensuing chaos caused by the swarm of monkeys Ariel and the rest to get separated from Shiraori, Sael, and Sophia. Shiraori, Sophia, and Sael desperately fight Wrath and attempt to flee, but he opens up a giant crevice in the glacier they are standing on, causing Sophia and him to fall down. In a panic, Shiraori summons thread from her fingertips to save Sophia from certain death, and in the process re-learns the first skill she ever used: thread-weaving. Elated, but at the same time scared, she saves Mera from falling into the crevice as well, while Sael gather's them all up and brings them to safety.

The rest of the journey through the Mystic Mountains is uneventful, and after a lot more suffering in the bumpy carriage, they finally get to relax a bit. Sort of. The Demon Realm is Ariel's domain, where she rules with an iron fist, but signs of rebellion show amongst the weaker demons who do not know of her strength. Shiraori quickly picks up on this as they head through Agner's domain, the frontline that borders the Renxandt Empire, to Castle Phthalo, ruled by Balto, the Demon Lord's aide. Ariel quickly gets Shiraori, Sophia, Merazophis, and the puppet taratect sisters settled into Balto's manor and begins her duties as the Demon Lord.

Life in the Demon Realm
It is later revealed that Shiraori, the rebirth of Kumoko, is not the missing classmate Wakaba Hiiro. Instead, she is a spider that was in the classroom at the time of the incident.

Conjuring
Having transcended the System, Shiraori is now incapable of using any of her former Skills. None-the-less she can replicate certain effects through conjuring. For example she can create a mirror from earth using magecraft that is like an extension of terrain magic or create bullets of darkness. Shiraori explains that she only knows how to perform Darkness Magic, Space Magic, Healing Magic, and Heresy Magic without system assistance. Even though Shiraori states that Heresy Magic can still be used, Ariel specifies that Shiraori can not use the heresy attribute Soul Break anymore.
 * Physical Strength beyond the System: As a god Shiraori's stats are above the System's limit. Even a right straight delivered by Shiraori can penetrate Ariel's Physical Nullification and give her a bleeding nose.
 * Fluoroscopy: An ability that allows Shiraori to see with closed eyes. It also grants her vision in 360 degrees, through and around walls, and more. She has no blind-spots.
 * Transformation: Shiraori can freely switch between a human form and an arachne form with just a thought.
 * Thread Manipulation: Due to her spider heritage, Shiraori can produce and manipulate spider threads. She can also completely customize them; See: Dimensional Magecraft.
 * Immortality & Regeneration: As a god Shiraori is immortal. She will never die of old age. Destroying her body is meaningless because the true form of a god is its soul, even destroying the head will only cause her to momentarily lose the ability to think. There are only two ways to kill a god. The first is to wear them down until they lack the energy for regeneration. The second is to use magecraft to destroy their soul. Even if one has soul destroying magecraft this isn't easy; according to Ariel it would require hundreds of users of Soul Break to really affect Güliedistodiez.
 * Barriers: Shiraori can create Barriers around herself and others.
 * Foresight: Even after becoming a god, Shiraori is still able to use this skill. It strengthens the user’s predictive abilities. Furthermore, it allows the user to see the possible outcomes of the immediate future.
 * Evil Eyes: Shiraori developed new versions of her Evil Eye Skills after becoming a god. Due to her having eyes within her eyes, she is able to use all of them at once and due to her vision enhancing Skills she can effectively use them in any direction thanks to Fluoroscopy.
 * Evil Eye of Analysis: An Evil Eye which analyzes the energy of an opponent's soul, giving a rough estimate of their strength.
 * Evil Eye of Grudge: Shiraori has developed a Magecraft version of this Evil Eye. It continually weakens all of the recipient’s stats while damaging their HP, MP, and SP, it also adds the decreased HP, Mana and SP to herself.
 * Evil Eye of Panic: Strikes Fear into the enemies in her view. The only people that can resist this are Gyurie and Ariel so it even works against high-grade fear resistance.
 * Evil Eye of Serenity: By reversing the effects of the Evil Eye of Panic. Shiraori can use an Evil Eye that grants the target serenity instead of fear.
 * Evil Eye of Static: Paralyzes the opponent making them completely unable to move. The skill doesn't only paralyze the body but also shuts down the mind making the opponent unable to remember what happened while paralyzed. Shiraori once described it as "King Crimson! Not quite the same though".
 * Evil Eye of Attraction and Repulsion: An Evil Eye that automatically repels and eliminates any attack in her field of view.
 * Evil Eye of Extinction: A Rot Attribute Evil Eye, that instantly disintegrates the target.

 * Evil Eye of Past Sight: An Evil Eye that lets Shiraori see the past.
 * Hacking the System: Shiraori has the ability to hack the System through clones sent to Sariel. By interfering with the System she can change various things. For example, she attempted to eradicate the Hero title this way. Shiraori wants to eventually reach the point of being able to destroy the System.
 * Soul Shelter: Shiraori has control over the System's Soul Shelter, which allows her to temporarily remove souls from the cycle of reincarnation.
 * Regenerating the Soul: Shiraori demonstrated being able to heal a soul that is about to be destroyed. This requires System access.
 * Resurrecting the Dead: Shiraori is able to resurrect the dead. However, this is only possible in a world with the System.
 * Dimensional Magecraft: Shiraori specializes in dimensional magecraft, and it has many capabilities. She can use an enhanced version of teleport that allows her to teleport anywhere she wants, even to other worlds. Furthermore, she can sense and interfere with the teleportation of others to make them teleport to unintended areas. Shiraori can create vast pocket dimensions and can manipulate the flow of time within them to a certain degree. She is able to teleport entire armies and uses this at times to teleport opponents into her pocket dimensions. Touching is not required for teleportation. In order to aim the dimensional magecraft one can either aim at a certain place, like normal, or also just designate the person one wishes to effect, in which case knowledge of where the person is is apparently unnecessary.
 * Threads: Shiraori's spider threads are laced with empty space. More specifically every thread is at the same time a pocket dimension of its own, making them practically indestructible unless one is able to destroy space itself.
 * Redirection: When attacked with projectiles Shiraori opens portals leading to a pocket space in order to catch the attack. She can then open another portal in order to send the attack right back at the opponent.
 * Dimensional Fissures: Shiraori can create dimensional fissures. She uses them to defend against attacks by opening up a portal into a different dimension, and then redirecting the attack with a second portal. She also hides her clones in pocket dimensions, opening up portals in a web-like pattern to attack with her custom Evil Eyes.
 * Division: Shiraori's aptitude for splitting her consciousness into multiple bodies emerges as one of her most subtle, yet powerful, Skills in the form of division. By creating innumerable tiny spider clones implanted with her own consciousness, she has nearly super-computer levels of multi-tasking ability. Shiraori uses this immense ability to partition her effort into researching new abilities and hacking the System, as well as gathering information by sending out her spider-clones to track key individuals and locations throughout the world. It is, in fact, this massive information network that she has created that is one the most instrumental of assets in her personal arsenal. She currently has over ten thousand clones all over the world and in various pocket dimensions. Should her main body die she can simply transfer her soul into one of the clones. Her clones generally have the same abilities as herself.
 * Mind Control: Shiraori can mind control people by having a small clone crawl into their ear and connect to their brain.
 * Exponential Spider Summoning: Shiraori can summon a great number of clones from her shadow. Each clone can then each summon even more clones, resulting in an exponential number of spiders appearing.
 * Magic Manipulation: Shiraori is able to manipulate magic around her. She can manipulate the magic power in other people to make them activate Skills they don't have. Additionally, she can interfere with the magic construction of others in order to completely negate a spell.
 * Recognition Obstruction: Shiraori makes it so that people do not recognize her, instead remembering whiteness. This works by planting the concept of whiteness directly in consciousness' of the people around her.
 * Telepathy: Shiraori can use telepathy, and eavesdrop on other people's telepathic communication.
 * Soul Protection: Shiraori is able to protect a few souls in the event of System collapse.
 * Absorbing External Energy: Shiraori has a talent for absorbing external energies, being easily able to drain any power source she comes across.
 * Hologram Creation: Shiraori can create Holograms to illustrate what she is explaining.
 * Boundary Field: A realm created by a god, that is sort of like being inside the god. Güliedistodiez demonstrated that a god can even change the laws of physics inside its zone. Being inside a god's zone is advantageous for the god and disadvantages for everyone else. The zone will dull the movements of opponents and nobody except the owner can properly use their power within it, although some internal magecraft such as healing and setting up barriers over the skin is possible. Shiraori not only has such a zone, but she can also use space magic to turn a space into her zone and in turn, cancel out the zone of others. This requires her to summon a massive number of clones into her opponent's zone.
 * Body Transmognification: Shiraori has been shown to transform her hand into a blade

Trivia

 * The two characters that make up her name are 白 (shiro), which means white, and 織 (ori), which means weaving.
 * Coffee will completely knock Shiraori out for hours. She can drink coffee without caffeine and nothing happens. Likewise she can drink caffeinated tea without a problem. Apparently only caffeinated coffee will have this effect.
 * After becoming the 10th army general Shiro trains the army to 1000 in each ability score, causing the opposing humans to think they are an elite demon force despite Shiro thinking that they are weak.
