Demon Queen Rebirth: I Reincarnated as a Living Armor?!

Chapter 186 - Special Burger



-----

In front of Ervas sight, there was an enormous creature, made entirely out of flesh, a few eyes, and perhaps a very disfigured jaw crossing all across its fleshy body. And around the body, countless tentacle-like appendages moved around.

??

This was Nyarlathotep's true form, which was currently taking a few pieces of its flesh to be used in cooking. Alongside her flesh, there was also Anir's Bone Marrow, an endless supply of meat that was speculated to come from an actual god.

Both almost endless supplies of meat were given to the entire Kingdom, and no one seemed to have undergone strange mutations or anything of the sort, always finding them delicious, nutritious, and easy to digest and prepare.

Although there were rumors about Anir and Kelsus fragments being capable of parasitizing their host or those that touched them, this was not the case for the 'product' that is produced.

A product of Anir or Kelsus fragments were what they could produce and leave away, something that could be launched at an enemy but not necessarily the fragment itself.

The real fragments, which were in truth merged into Veronica and Ervas souls were different from the produced material, such as the bone marrow and the scales, often qualified as the 'product', something not containing the will of the fragments and simply being very high-quality meat and scales.

And due to these facts, consuming the meat produced as a product by Anir's Bone Marrow was completely fine and even recommended by experts of the Igni Kingdom… The Igni Kingdom being the only one that has tried it, so they are the only experts in Kritias at the moment.

Another meat that was similar to Anir's Bone Marrow was the delicious flesh of Nyarlathotep. Although her origins are from a different world than Kritias, her flesh seems surprisingly familiar to the one in Kritias, resembling cow beef or minced beef. It has a strong greasy flavor, and it's always filled with juice whenever it's grilled.

It also does not have any blood, so it always comes ready to be cooked right out of Nyarlathotep's body, it is nutritious, and it does not cause any adversity or negative status ailment on those that eat it… but if someone that does not have a strong faith in Ervas or Veronica consume it, they might experience strange dreams and be hastily made to have faith in them.

"Today's meal is special, we decided to combine three different types of meat to see how it would end… We combined Wyvern's meat, Nyarlathotep, and Anir's Bone Marrow. There are hamburgers, croquet, crusty pies, and meatloaf of this combination… I tasted it beforehand and I assure you that you won't be disappointed" said Veronica while sipping some wine.

The Wine was recently made through fermenting grapes produced by the Living Fruit Trees, rank 4 Monsters that we're charmed by Ervas and Veronica, and produce fresh fruits of what they had absorbed beforehand.

The fermentation that would take quite a few years was quickly made through Ervas Life Attribute Spirit Magic Spell 'Fermentation', which was made after Ervas figured out a way to infuse Life into bacteria to make them ferment things faster. Charlotte also helped in this process with her Time Attribute Spell 'Lesser Aging', which can make a few types of things age faster, although it doesn't affect anything stronger than fruits or food.

"I see- hey, why are you drinking wine? Aren't you even younger than me?" asked Ervas.

"Yeah but I look like a big girl so I am allowed, fufu" laughed Veronica as she drank more wine.

"Damn it… I really want a sit of that" said Ervas, surprising his father, who had not expected his son to be an avid drinker.

"Wait, Ervas, you drink alcohol?!" asked Jason in disbelief.

"No, not yet in this life. But I used to do so, well, WE used to do so as Anastacia… Even in our previous lives before Anastacia we liked drinking wine from time to time… the Demon Kingdom made the best one, to be honest" said Ervas.

"Don't worry, I can't get drunk by drinking it, so it is not like I will enjoy that later… At best, just the familiar flavor" said Veronica, she didn't have a flesh body, and getting drunk was impossible without a brain.

"I see… I am leveling up Status Effect Resistance, so I might not even get drunk anymore either…" muttered Ervas, wondering that whenever he was to get at the age of drinking, he would probably be immune to getting drunk… At least, he was not an alcoholic, but the feeling of being drunk sometimes make him happy in his two previous lives, but nothing that he ever put his life dependence into, as those were gacha games and web novels.

"Well, there is still delicious grape juice for my lord, there is also a variety of more fruit juices if you so desire, or we could also offer you a wide variety of blood from different monsters. There is also blood extracted from Anir's Bone Marrow and also from Nyarlathotep" said Lilith, appearing besides Ervas while wearing a maid outfit.

"I see, I will take the grape juice… and add some of Anir's blood and… is there orc blood?" asked Ervas.

"Yes, my lord, there is," said Lilith.

"Very well, add that as well, the combination of the fruit and blood is always nice to the scent and drinking experience," said Ervas, who had begun to treat blood like wine.

Lilith carefully served Ervas with his drink, as he drank a bit and enjoyed the flavors and scents, and then began to dig in a piece of delicious meatloaf covered in a sauce similar to barbeque sauce.

It was delicious, the meat was incredibly tender, almost falling apart and melting in his mouth, it was filled with delicious, salty juices, and it had a good texture and enticing smell, the blood with grape juice went even better with it, creating a combination of flavors that finally took Ervas way from his negative thoughts, he really enjoyed eating, being a big distraction from such thoughts.

"This is… It is delicious" said Ervas.

"I'm glad you like it! We made it so you could cheer up!" said Veronica.

"Eh? Really? Were you that worried?" asked Ervas.

"Of course! We love you! We want the best for you, and seeing you all down all the time really made us want to cheer you up somehow" said Veronica.

"Yeah, after we figured out that you enjoyed eating the most, we made sure to prepare you a delicious lunch," said Jason.

"Everyone… Thanks… I will try to be less negative, as long as you're all with me, I think that I can keep moving forward while also resting and settling down for a bit" said Ervas.

"I'm glad you've finally considered it, my son… Now let us dig in, I'm starving!" said Jason as he began to eat an enormous hamburger.

Everyone present chatted around while enjoying the good food and friends, it was an atmosphere that Ervas and Veronica did not have the luxury of enjoying in their first two lives, this was truly a third life worth living for.
