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

Chapter 197 - Back To Veronica’s Homeland (Dungeon)!

-----

In an eerie underground dungeon, with dark blue walls made out of bricks and small torches illuminating the darkness within the depths, a hellish fiend screeched in anger and voracity, a scrap eater, a long and monstrous centipede covered in a metallic exoskeleton.

??

The creature roared, releasing a foul-smelling spit of corrosive acid that flew like a spherical and slimy bullet towards its target a few meters away.

Splat!

The target didn't evade the attack but decided to take it head with her entire body, the acidic fluids spread through her metallic body while barely melting anything, without making any dent at all.

The creature realized that its acidic attack barely managed to do any damage, getting alarmed and concerned about its own safety.

"Now's my turn! Fear Bullets!" said the centipede's target, a beautiful phantasmal woman with wine-colored hair and scarlet eyes whose skin was completely pale, almost transparent, while her body was completely covered in armor… or more accurately, her body was an armor, the armor that had barely suffered any damage from the corrosive acid attack.

She spread her arms as she exuded a deadly bloodthirsty pressure materialized into a dark aura that encompassed her body, moving it into the palms of her metallic claws and forming them into spheres, firing them like bullets towards the creature one after another.

Although they caused little damage even to this creature, each time the spheres touched the fiendish armored critter, the creature would feel excruciating horror, fear, and despair.

"GRRRRYYYY!"

After the third bullet that managed to hit it, the creature fainted out of horror, its heat stopped, and its entire body was stiff as a rock.

"Veronica, these monsters are pretty easy to kill…" said a young boy, seemingly on his four to five years of age, despite looking of this age, he was actually two years old, being a half-demon with increased growing metabolism. It had long black hair with white strands, alongside a white horn poking from his forehead and scarlet eyes.

"Ervas, but this is my home! Be more polite with the little boys in here!" said Veronica, grabbing on the centipede with metallic armor that she had just killed out of pure fear, showing it to Ervas.

"Is this edible?" he asked.

"I think so… nom… bleh, it tastes bad… nom, nom," said Veronica as she tasted on the creature by munching on it, it tasted bitter and terrible, but she kept eating it out of gluttony.

"Shoooooghh!"

Shoggoth, a creature made out of twisting green and dark blue flesh of constant shape changes, and many eyes popping in and out of the body jumped over a large metallic spider, not Charlotte, as it covered it entirely with its body and began to digest it alive.

"Shoooggh…" it muttered, seemingly happy over the easy meal while the armored spider struggled for a few seconds inside the pocket of flesh before dying at the end.

Shoggoth, the recently summoned creature of Ervas specialized in screeching loudly and… in digesting its prey alive by expanding its oozy and slimy body around them.

"SHOOGH!"

Shoggoth did not lose time as it roared, releasing a wave of sound towards an escaping prey, an enormous ten meters long armored snake, receive the sound waves and becoming dizzy and confused, Shoggoth leaped over it and began to punch the creature's guts with its flesh as if they were fists, something that it had seemingly learned out of Veronica.

"Shoogh! Shoogh!"

Shoggoth kept expanding itself while fighting against the snake's force and counterattack, ending in devouring it entirely by digesting it like a whole meal.

Shoggoth, although he felt full after each meal, a few minutes were the only thing needed for its voracious appetite to come back for more.

Alongside Shoggoth there were many other monsters tamed by Veronica and Ervas fighting against the monsters of the first few floors of the Dungeon where Veronica was born.

This trip was mostly to level up Shoggoth through power-leveling, but it ended in a nice trip to bring on the pets for some little exercise.

"When will things get more exciting as you said?" asked Ervas to Veronica.

"Probably, if things had gone back to how a dungeon should be normal, the exciting part is the dungeon boss for us, at the very least. We are already way too strong, I remember that things were exciting in here as it was all quite hard, and my life was often put on the line multiple times… but I persevered and here I am" said Veronica as she kept eating the centipede with voracity through her phantom body.

"I see… Would you stop eating that?" asked Ervas.

"…No," said Veronica, eating the creature's corpse until not even the last bits were left through her phantasmal jaws and mouth.

"Chuuuu! Chuuuuuu!"

As Veronica and Ervas had a wacky conversation while letting their babies train, Kyuu zapped around as if he were lightning itself, flashing around and releasing shocks of a thunderstorm around its surroundings and enemies.

It jumped over the heads of the metallic creatures, unleashing a zapping blast of electricity, and grilling most of them while they were still alive.

"GUuuOooOOonnNN!" roared a large living armor, a monster spawned inside the dungeon who ran towards Kyuu at fast speed while raising its halberd, about to slice Kyuu in half!

Slash!

"CHUU!!!"

However, Kyuu jumped as if it were a flash of golden lightning, appearing atop the wild living armor and zapping it with lightning once again, the force and heat of the attack were so strong for the low resistance monster that even its armor melted to an extent, dying in the spot.

Ervas admired Kyuu's amazing performance with awe.

"Woah, Kyuu has really gotten strong… was he really a Rank 1 Demon Rat before? I cannot believe it… It seems that every monster has the potential of becoming something powerful as long as we nurture them well… this makes me want to tame a lowly monster and see it grow again, just like my plants" said Ervas.

"You could do it in here, maybe tame a Living armor?" asked Veronica.

"No, that would be quite… boring, and you are a living armor, Veronica. We don't need more… it is also Pekoran" said Ervas.

"Hm, well, let us investigate more around, perhaps another of these little critters could interest you, whenever I get my next taming slot, I am going to tame a Horned Rabbit! I will make it grow just as strong as Kyuu!" said Veronica.

"Auntie Veronica, Ervas! The road is cleaned, let us advance!" said Amelia, sitting over Charlotte's abdomen as if the enormous spider was her transport, Veronica and Ervas came accompanied by the young girls of the Kingdom that were strong enough to explore dungeons and wanted to leech some Experience Points.

"Alright, let's go!" said Veronica, as Ervas walked right at her side.

"The road seems pretty straightforward, this dungeon seems easy!" said Pekorina.

"I think I can see the next floor! Ah, look! A giant crab!" said Acathea.

"Let's grill it and eat it!" said Amelia, conjuring fireballs and roasting the crab alive, while Pekorina and Acathea crushed its peers from the sides with their flaming kicks and sharp claws attacks.

Clash! Slash! Boom!

The cries of the armored crabs resonated through the dungeon as Veronica and Ervas walked downstairs, admiring how the young girls had grown so fast in so little time, almost as fast as them in some regards.

"These girls… had grown a lot too…" said Ervas.
