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

-----

"We have to tell our lord!"

??

"R-Run!"

"Shit! They're way too fast!"

A group of young Bear-kin and Harpy children, of no more than fifteen years of age, ran from an army of monsters and demi-humans, closing in, there was a gigantic snake made up of hundreds of vine plants entangled together, sliding its way towards them while releasing a loud roar.

"GRRIISHA!"

"Ivy trap them!" said a small child, seemingly made entirely out of gold and white-colored phantom, Ervas, who had generated a few clones made from his Phantom Form, distributing himself across the battlefield similarly to Veronica.

"GRISHA!"

Ivy, the gigantic snake made up of hundreds of vine plants entangled together extended its vines towards the running younglings, grabbing them from their legs or torsos.

"Aghhh! It hurts!"

"No! NOOOO!"

"Our Lord, save us…!"

"Stop crying… We are not killing you…" said Ervas, as Ivy had regulated the produced poison from its spikes, but they still hurt when they slightly pierced the flesh of the younglings, a fitting punishment, at least more benevolent than death.

"Griiisha…" muttered Ivy.

Some of the kids immediately fell unconscious due to fear, while some struggled and even tried to conjure magic.

"Aghh! I will not give in, you bastard ghost! Phantom Tentacle!" roared a young harpy kid, as she conjured from within her Phantasmal Aura a large tentacle made out of phantom.

"Bastard ghost? I am not a ghost…" muttered Ervas phantom clone, as he quickly destroyed the phantom tentacle before it even hit him just by a wave of telekinesis. He was a mere phantom clone though that did not even possess Ervas actual strength.

Flash!

"Aghhh… My mana! What… You just waved your hand and destroyed my Phantom Tentacle?!" asked the harpy girl.

"Yes, now sleep, Mind Attack," said Ervas, sending a strong mind attack into the young girl, as her mind suddenly blacked out, falling unconscious within seconds.

"Phantom Warriors!!!" roared another kid, a bear-kin boy who had managed to escape Ivy's grasp and conjured a strange spell, expanding his Phantasmal Aura and then creating illusory warriors resembling skeletons wielding armor made out of blue-colored phantom.

The Phantom Warriors seemed to be a lesser version of Ervas Phantom Clones, as they flew towards him while raising phantasmal weapons such as swords, axes, and spears.

"Guooon!"

"Guuoooonnnn!"

"Gaaaahhhhhhhh!"

"Those spells, this is clearly Death Attribute Magic… but how did you kids even got this? According to the memories I got, a lot of you never showed such affinities… Perhaps that Necromancer did something to their souls with a special spell… They are clearly different, and I even detect some Dead Spirits within… Maybe it is an advanced version of Soul Binding…" said Ervas Phantom Clone, as he received the three Phantom Warriors with more magic, while Ivy used her vines to destroy them while enhancing them with her Mana, releasing strong whipping techniques.

Slash! Slash! Slash!

"E-Eh?! My Phantom Warriors!" cried the bear-kin kid, as Ervas knocked him out with another Mind Attack.

Hearing Ervas words, Veronica answered him from within another side of the battlefield.

"Well, if that 'Necromancer' is indeed a Kelsus or Anir Fragment that had taken consciousness, then it could be possible for it to develop such spell. After all, these fragments belong to the Demon God-King, who is thought to be the strongest Death Attribute God that ever existed, only Qadall being almost equal, but because Qadall never fights, the Demon God-King was said to be the strongest…" said Veronica.

"The strongest Death Attribute God, even a fragment of itself is strong enough to do this?" wondered Ervas.

"Perhaps there might be a few other fragments with it, I wouldn't believe it is a single fragment doing all of this mess," said Veronica.

"Hmm…" murmured Ervas.

"It would be nice if we could eat them…" said Veronica with a malicious voice.

"I agree. We'll see how it goes, for now, let us finish all of this,"

"Yep, on it," said Veronica.

On the other side of the battlefield, Veronica's main body rampages around hordes of Undead. The young Apprentice Necromancers, in their desperation to escape and make up for distractions, spent the majority of all of their Mana into summoning more Undead and Graveyards, quickly filling up the entire battlefield with these stone monuments and purple dirt alongside skeleton soldiers of all shapes and sizes.

However, to Veronica, they were nothing but ants that were crushed without her even releasing a sweat. Mostly because she did not sweat.

She shaped herself in the most 'efficient' mobile battle tank, with four cannons and spider legs for easy mobility, she crushed the skeleton army one after another just by stepping in them with her metallic body, while releasing cannon attacks that were charged with Light, Dark, and Lightning thanks to Shade, Ozgeth, and Pete's help through her Spirit Magic and Dead Spirit Magic Skills combining their effects into powerful Spells.

"What the hell… is that?!"

"It's just a giant… spider thing?!"

"It's made of metal too…!"

"Don't budge! Conjure your spells! Phantom Blades!"

A young bear-kin girl raised her paws with anger and frustration, as her eyes flashed with an eerie crimson light, conjuring dozens of Phantom Blades from within her Phantasmagoric Aura.

Veronica charged towards it without even caring about the attacks, as the blades flew towards her and exploded into her armor, resembling missiles rather than blades.

BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!

Veronica's charge stopped for a moment as the smoke of the magical explosion filled her vicinity, the young bear-kin girl released a wicked smile, seemingly thinking that her spell managed to wear her down.

"See? Just keep attacking! Our Lord has given us the power to defeat anything- Huh?! GYAAAAAH!"

Flash!

Suddenly, the girl was grabbed by an enormous phantasmagoric, black-colored tentacle, and dragged way inside the smoke.

The others that were at her side glanced with horror as more dark tentacles emerged from within the smoke, Veronica's body began to walk once again while charging towards them!

"Now stay inside of me and shut up for a moment, Mind Attack," said Veronica, making the girl's mind blackout in a second, as she charged towards the other kids while using her Abyssal Soul, shaping it as tentacles to grab them tightly and then sending them inside of her armor, locked inside her through the extended space made through Space Expansion.

"GYAAAAH!"

"Go awaaaay!"

"Stop! Nooo!"

"Sheesh, stop crying, I am not actually doing anything to you! Do you know? If I were a bit evil, all of you would be dead and converted into Undead right now! But I am not a bad person, so shut up and get in!" said Veronica, shutting the kids through her Mind Attack and throwing them inside of her body one after another.

After a few seconds, Veronica managed to clean up this small group, as she kept charging into the battlefield where there was the most Undead, crushing them within seconds as she was completely unfazed by their measly attacks, and then quickly destroying the graves one after another. Each time the graves were destroyed, the purple-colored dirt would go back to its original color.

"This is also quite the weird spell, it creates these strange graves that seem to enhance Undead strength and also creates what I could say to be… 'Spawn Points'. With these things, the Necromancers can connect the purple-colored dirt to somewhere else, summoning Undead from that place, well, it is more like teleportation than summoning. It seems that, as I thought, these graves connect this place to the Undead Dungeon, although we cannot get in by ourselves…" said Veronica.

"Quite the strange spells, is Death Attribute Magic capable of doing something similar to Space Attribute Magic?" asked Shade.

"I am not sure, I always thought that it was simply about Death, raising the Death, and all of that, but it seems that those who are experts on it are capable of using Death Attribute Magic in many other ways. In my past life I only could use a small number of Spells thanks to the Death Attribute Spirit Hades, but nothing like this…" said Veronica.

"It is most likely as you said then, there might be someone akin to a God in power if it is capable of creating such complex spells," said Shade.

"So that's how it is…" muttered Ervas as he heard Veronica's explanation.

"I've also found out that their souls seem to imprison several Dead Spirits inside, which work as something similar to… batteries, giving the users greater Mana capacity… It uses similar principles to Soul Bind, but the Dead Spirits are bind inside the user's soul as if it were a bag…" said Ervas.

"Yep, I just realized that as I saw Gaius fight against his brother, Azra. That kid had their soul literally explode like a balloon when he overused the Mana, and various of the dead spirits escaped… the kid is fine, but his soul is a bit damaged," said Veronica.

"Hm, I can heal him, I think, I am about to max out my Job already, there are so many Undead that the Experience Points, even if small, accumulated a lot," said Ervas.

"Same, let's finish the last things so we can assess everything properly," said Veronica, rushing through the battlefield and crushing the last remnants of Undead and graves.
