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

??

After having been born in battle and survived in battles, evolved in battles, and evolved up to the pinnacle, he finally died to a worthy challenger!

But instead of being granted rest or a restart in another life, hew as being dragged down?!

The prideful Dragon could not help but scream, asking his former enemies to stop doing what they were doing at once!

How vicious were they to think that he did not even deserve another chance in the afterlife?!

Not even once had he thought about denying that of those he fought, killed, and ate… yet, here he is! Being dragged down like everything he always believed in was completely pointless!

Give him a break, will you?

Although as much as Grakgna desired it, Ervas and Veronica had other plans for him, more interesting plans than letting such a strong soul charged with Earth Attribute Mana be wasted inside the Dungeon\'s Reincarnation Cycle.

He was after all capable of awakening the Earth Attribute Magic Skill, enough for him to be a valuable (death) ally!

The pair of split souls didn\'t doubt a second as they dragged him down with their Mana, he wasn\'t going to get away from this!

No way in hell!

"He\'s amazingly strong, we have to make him a ghost without a doubt," said Ervas.

"Indeed, if we infuse enough Mana, he should be capable of keeping his main skills that didn\'t require his body to function," said Veronica.

After hearing what they said, Grakgna couldn\'t help but scream again.

"Ghost?! Skills?! What… What do you want from me?! Don\'t convert me into a ghost! I don\'t wanna!" cried Grakgna, trying to get away from the two split souls, using his ethereal claws, but without them having any effect on them.

"He\'s not being affected by our Death Attribute Charm?" wondered Ervas.

"Indeed, he seems quite rebellious, must be due to his intelligent mind and well, he was a Rank 12 monster after all…" said Veronica.

"Well, without further ado, rise," said Ervas.

"Rise!" said Veronica.

Both split souls infused their Mana into Grakgna, as Veronica used her Limited Death Attribute Magic Skill to conjure the \'Undead Transformation\' Spell, beginning to convert Grakgna into a ghost by infusing tremendous amounts of Mana into his ethereal body.

Grakgna struggled, but in the end, he could only give in to his future master\'s commands, giving up on life (or death) and becoming a gigantic Ghost…

Flash!

The enormous quantities of Mana flowed into his very soul, causing a mutation that converted him slowly into a ghost, the entire structure of his creation changed, he began to be covered in Phantom all over, while his senses sharpened, and he felt as if some of his old strength came back to him!

"What… this strange feeling, it is as if I gained back some of my senses and power, but the feeling of being dead remains… my physical body is no longer with me…" thought Grakgna, grasping his phantom claws as he acquired the ability to materialize them.

However, instead of choosing to attack his new masters, he calmed down, as something entailing about them began to change Grakgna\'s mind.

"No, more like these guys are fucked up, I better obey them…" he thought.

Flash!

Grakgna\'s transformation into a ghost finished, as Ervas and Veronica glanced at him with surprised expressions.

"Rank 8 Ancient Earth Dragon King Ghost… Amazing, even after dying and becoming a Ghost, his Rank is still outstanding," said Ervas.

"Indeed, and he inherited most of his Skills as well!" said Veronica.

"Amazing, what\'s with that power? Is he really a ghost?" asked Feroya at Veronica\'s side.

"Indeed, he\'s rather an insane powerhouse," said Sevapheso while nodding and rubbing his ethereal chin with his transparent wings.

"I feel a bit overshadowed now…" said Ozgeth.

"You\'re not the only one…" said Shade.

"Aw, come on, I love you two! Don\'t get all upset…" said Veronica with a grin, she didn\'t mean to love them romantically though.

"Very well my lady, perhaps I shouldn\'t talk so rashly," said Ozgeth.

"L-LOVE?!" asked Shade in surprise, almost jumping out of the place.

Pete glanced at the ridiculous scene unfold with very tired eyes, then looking at Grakgna who was just as expressionless.

"Grysha?" it asked as if saying \'the first time?\'.

Grakgna simply nodded, as Pete released another shriek of comprehension.

Unknowingly, a friendship has been forged between two former dungeon rulers converted into ghosts…

Meanwhile, Alraune, the combination of thousands of souls from plants and fungi glanced at things eerily, and even Grakgna felt a strange pressured.

Alraune\'s crimson eyes shined brightly below the endless cover of plants and seaweed it was made of, making her seem more menacing than she actually was.

"Now, now, met all your new friends and make sure to be nice with everyone," said Veronica.

"Welcome to the party, it is a pity that you could not be assimilated into me, but that\'s how things are," said Legion as it extended its ethereal tentacles to greet Grakgna.

Grakgna only glanced with horror as he slowly nodded his ethereal head.

"Welcome to our humble group, Grakgna. May you serve our lady well," said Ozgeth.

"Grysha," said Pete.

"Guuooon…" said Alraune.

"Ah, Pete and Alraune say that they\'re very excited to see a new ghost friend! I am Feroya by the way~! It\'s amazing to have a dragon friend now!" said Feroya.

"And I am Sevapheso, if you need to talk about anything that only guys talk about, feel free to tell me," said Sevapheso.

"(Eh? What are these ghosts all talking about? They\'re just as insane as the people here…) Pleased… to meet you," said Grakgna with a bitter smile, he was already being pressured a lot by so many social interactions, as he had never had friends, he was unknowingly a total neet that liked to sleep on his lair for hundreds of years without being disturbed.

So when he was finally forced to interact with people, he could barely muster a few words before falling into silence again… Although Pete comprehended his pain a bit.

Many of the other group members of Veronica and Ervas gathered around Grakgna, admiring his enormous size for a ghost, even surpassing Pete.

"I\'ve never seen a ghost this big, this is completely insane…!" said Ismene.

"Pete was already giant… but this? Grakgna seems to have taken the crown of the biggest ghost now…" said Anna.

"Enormous! A fine mount! Let me mount your back!" said Pekoran.

"No thanks," said Grakgna, breaking the spirit of the Living Armory.

"You\'re so big…! Damn, I regret not having fought you when you were alive…" said Pekorina.

"He\'s quite the gigantic lad. And his ghost form is so realistic, he even got his scales and everything there, amazing. He really pictures himself as he used to be, so I guess this is why he looks like this!" said Acathea.

"Big dragon, say roar!" said Amelia.

"Amelia, don\'t force Grakgna to do your bidding, he\'s an ally now," said Ismene.

"Okaaaay…" said Amelia, slightly bothered and bored.

"An impressive new companion, I am looking forward to our battles together," said Goliath.

"Draaaaaaaaaaa…!" roared Draconia, flying around Grakgna as if she had found her best match or something.

"Draconia seems to like you! Maybe because she\'s the part dragon?" wondered Goliath.

"Grrryshaaa!" roared Nidhogg, glancing at Grakgna with a bit of suspiciousness.

"Growl…" roared Ivy, greeting Grakgna cautiously.

"Gubo, sorry for having beaten you back there, but you didn\'t seem to want to cooperate, so we had to kill you, gubo! But don\'t worry, being a ghost is amazing! You can go through walls and stuff, gubo!" said Aqua.

"Y-Yeah…" muttered Grakgna with a big of fear after seeing Aqua.

"Err… S-Sorry for pouring so much poison in you…" apologized Charlotte.

"It was a particularly nasty trick, but it is fine, that\'s how we survive in here, there is no honor but winning and surviving another day," said Grakgna, without holding grudges against his former enemies due to his code.

"Well, that\'s an amazing way of thinking, you\'ve really lived for hundreds of years, have you not?" asked Jason.

"Indeed, it has been quite the boring years later, at the very least, I can look forward to a more interesting journey at my… Masters side," said Grakgna.

"Ah don\'t worry, they might seem a bit frightening, but they are gentle, I know my son very well…" said Jason with a gentle smile.

"Your… son?!" asked Grakgna surprised that Ervas was the son of this gentle human.

If he recalled correctly, Ervas was able to transform into a gigantic bone dragon and breathe red and blue flames… How could this gentle young man be the father of such a monstrosity?!

Grakgna sighed, as he could not do anything else than that, things were now done, and he was becoming a new companion for the split souls.

Kireina laughed a bit as she saw how all things unfolded.

"This is hilarious, is this how you recruit friends? I think I\'ve done the same a few times…" said Kireina.

"Oh, yeah… A lot of times before your visit, Kireina-san," said Ervas.

"Hm? Were you also able to use Death Magic?" asked Veronica.

"Oh no, but I reincarnated people that were my former enemies into my allies… Oh right, would you believe this? A lot of them ended being reincarnated as my children… Although I love them anyway, they became completely new people, so I guess it\'s not the same as Grakgna here," said Kireina.

"Reincarnated people?! You reincarnated people like that?!" asked Veronica.

"Yeah, I even created them new bodies and all through my unique abilities, such as Egg Laying and stuff, by adding some nutrients, specific bloodlines, materials, and more, I created new super-strong bodies and more things like that. I even used this for Gods who had lost their physical bodies, it was a lot of fun… Ah, I miss them a bit…" said Kireina.

"Why do you talk so causally about crazy stuff like that…?" said Veronica.

"We want to learn more about you even more now…" said Ervas.

"Oh? Is that so?" laughed Kireina.
