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

??

"Ah, my daughter is now four-armed! Phew, good thing we made the equipment capable of self-adjusting itself," said Veronica.

"The dress was made by several types of metallic threads made from alloys we crafted personally for you, they possess amazing resistance capabilities, and can even resist Light and Life Attributes quite well. Also, the little armor pieces which are shoulder pads, a chest plate, and a tiny helmet are all incredibly durable too! And they also have shape memory, so they will go back to their original shapes even if they were bent by strong hits," said Anna, while crossing her arms, she was admired by Kuro-chan as not only her second mother but also as an amazing item creator.

"Nice, I am getting it all on!" said Kuro-chan, as she quickly began to undress in front of everyone!

"W-Wait a second my dear! D-Don\'t undress in front of everyone…" said Veronica.

"Oh… Right, I will go upstairs…!" said Kuro-chan, as she carried her clothes and ran upstairs, changing clothes with the assistance of several Undead within the mansion, who all treated her as their master as well, as she had developed Death Attribute Charm naturally like her mother.

"Kuro-chan has really grown a lot, now she can even talk fluidly," said Jason.

"Indeed, in six months she had grown a lot… bigger than me too…" sighed Ervas.

"Ah, Ervas-kun, y-you are still bigger than me!" said Pekorina.

"Not really, you are ten centimeters taller…" said Ervas.

"A-Ah, don\'t count my ears!" said Pekorina.

"Even then, that\'s around five centimeters taller…" said Ervas.

"Well, I still love you even if you are small! I remember that you were even smaller before…" said Pekorina.

"…Right. That is true, maybe if I keep evolving, I can become taller," said Ervas with hopes of becoming tall and muscular like his father, and truly become as masculine as he wanted to be in this new life, as formerly being Veronica, he now wanted to fully embrace the masculinity of being a male!

…Although he looked very cute and a tad bit feminine.

This was, perhaps, one of Ervas\'s biggest internal battles… attain higher masculinity!

Ervas clenched his fists as he glanced at his little, pale-white hands.

"I will attain muscles…" said Ervas internally… although not for now.

"I am done! How do I look, mama?" asked Kuro-chan as she slowly descended from the stairs while being carried by ghosts, she resembled a beautiful, scarlet undead princess, her upper body really looked like a vampire, but her lower half was like that of a spider.

Her special dress was a long, crimson dress, decorated with beautiful roses and decorations, and she also had light, dark armor over her shoulders, her little chest, and a tiny helmet over her head.

Meanwhile, her four little arms also wore accessories such as bracelets, while her fingers had magic rings of all types.

And lastly, each of her arms had a strong, intimidating weapon!

She really looked like she was about to annihilate a whole army of monsters!

People like Percy felt intimidated by the innocent little girl, while most of the other people were excited, almost roaring in the hype over Kuro-chan\'s debut as an Adventurer!

"Amazing! My daughter is so amazing! She looks so cool! Look at her! She\'s going to ravage this entire town! No monsters will stand on her path!" said Veronica, as she hugged her little girl, as Kuro began to swing her weapons, unleashing black flames, green winds that could slice through metal, explosive blue flames, and dragon breaths all over the manor.

The manor itself groaned a bit, so Kuro decided to not continue as the manor healed itself through Veronica\'s Mana and new wood being produced through her Golem Creation Skill.

"Sorry about that, Selene-chan…" sighed Kuro, as Selene, the manor, groaned happily, forgiving the little princess of death without any issues. In fact, it had never gotten angry at her.

Percy slowly popped out from below the table, trembling a bit… unlike Jason whose strength and mind were not human anymore, Percy was one of the few "normal" humans that Ervas and Veronica were fond of.

"I-Is it done?" he asked.

"Oh yeah, sorry about that, Kuro-chan gets carried away a little bit, but isn\'t she the most precious for that? Phew, I cannot wait to see her go in there and register! Vairvec is going to totally do it if he does not want me to slap him into the concrete! Hahaha!" laughed Veronica.

"Slap him… into the concrete?" muttered Percy, as he imagined the Night Elf-Man being slapped by Veronica\'s phantom hands into the concrete of the paved streets, his face falling into the floor as an enormous crater were to be left… he was strong, so he would probably survive that… but it would hurt a lot, and would completely destroy his reputation.

As Kuro-chan joined her friends, such as Bert, Acaracia, Mitiliph, alongside Fei, and the rest of the Blood-Human girl\'s children, Veronica finally let Percy continue with the topic they were taking previously.

"Ah, were you talking about something else before?" asked Veronica.

"Y-Yes, about the Aquaria Kingdom…" said Percy.

"Oh, please continue… Sorry about interrupting you," said Veronica.

"Oh, there is no need to be sorry, my lady. I am sure that your daughter is more important than these issues. Anyways, what I was going to say is that the Aquaria Kingdom had fallen to the Empire of Bestellen…" said Percy.

"Yeah you already said that…" said Ervas.

"Let me continue, please… What I was going to say is that the King… and the people inside the castle were… mysteriously found… dead," said Percy.

"Eh?" asked Veronica.

"The King? Well we only killed his grandson," said Ervas.

"Yeah, that\'s… the thing. The mysterious death of the King and all the people inside the castle, including his wife and children… It was attributed to you, my lord… and lady… Somehow, the church of Bestellen got to know about your name, although not that of Veronica, who is treated as an "Evil Demon Living Armor"…" said Percy.

"What?! So they are saying that we just slaughtered the entire royal family? I bet this is all a scheme to blame us for everything!" said Veronica.

"Precisely. I believe that they are trying to lower your name and that of Ervas-sama. So any new Kingdom you go to will know about his name as a criminal… However, Veronica\'s name is not known, as she can fake being a dhampir very well, so I do not believe she would get caught… Unless you openly admit that you are a Living Armor," said Percy.

"Well, we live pretty far from the empire and Aquaria now, and even if the news came here… I think I could just be fine, this is a completely different nation after all, which lives almost to the borders of the continent, and the church influence is limited due to the enormous amount of different races proliferating here, alongside the Vampires… I hate to admit it, but those bloodsuckers are helping us I guess," sighed Veronica.

"I see. I suppose that we should not worry so much about it for now… Although there was another series of strange events occurring around Aquaria…" said Percy.

"What is it?" wondered Ervas.

"It was detected that there was a large influx of Undead at the surrounding forests… One day everything began to change as some strange entity arrived… Something evil, as it was described by the priests that tried to exercise and survived from getting slaughtered… it was described that the forest was turning into Undead nests, and more Undead emerged over and over again, creating a large barrier of monsters which the Kingdom could not get rid of, even now that the Empire has taken over the Kingdom they still cannot completely take over this area… However, recently, just a few days ago, the Undead had suddenly begun to decrease in power and numbers, and are being easily suppressed now… Perhaps in a few weeks, they will be finally able to reclaim all that land taken over by the Undead, which had also even taken over villages…" said Percy.

"Undead? Raising undead? Is there any monster that can do that?" wondered Veronica.

"There have been cases of evil Liches, but they are not monsters, and they cannot raise zombies, only skeletons… And even then, their mana pool wouldn\'t be so high to even bring entire forests into Undead nests in just a few days…" said Ervas.

"Then.. what?" muttered Veronica.

"…You think…?" muttered Ervas, as both Veronica and he glanced at each other, their expressions were filled with intrigue.

They recalled what the Necromancer had told to them before they ate his soul…

"And you… you will not see the last of me… Because between you and I, there can only be one!"

"You will see me soon! Gahaha! D-Don\'t… nnghh…! Don\'t think that you have defeated me yet…!"

The two then felt a bit of goosebump.

"What a pain…" they sighed at the same time as if their souls had connected just to say this at the same time.

"It\'s either the Necromancer or a new Death Mage we had never met before," said Veronica.

"Both are weird choices, but the Necromancer surviving is… something that might have happened…" said Ervas.

"After all, the guy was proficient in controlling souls, and… he most likely left some kind of split soul in a backup somewhere else, even when we literally ate his soul, perhaps a fragment of him is still somewhere else… Damn it…" sighed Veronica.

"Well, his Undead is now faltering, so perhaps, whoever he was… it is now weakened… or maybe he escaped?" wondered Percy.

"Hm… I have kind of a bad feeling about this, so let us make sure to prepare for anything," said Veronica.

"I agree…" said Ervas.
