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

-----

Unaware that the enemy they thought had defeated somehow survived by sacrificing most of his power, Ervas and Veronica enjoyed a night with their family and friends, enjoying the feast of grilled dragon meat and hamburgers made out of Anir's Bone Marrow, Nyarlathotep's flesh, and dragon meat.

??

The hamburgers were so enjoyed by everyone that they quickly became a staple in the Kingdom, are even considered as one of the first national foods.

And now, with the newly discovered delicacy is grilled and seasoned plant-type monster flesh, the hamburgers had become even greater, it was as if they had ranked up.

Ervas and Veronica sat down around a large table that was set outside of the castle, as their friends brought them large amounts of food, their appetite was quite voracious since they defeated the Necromancer, and they were simply devouring anything that was put in front of them.

Stuffing himself with his third double-patty hamburger, Ervas was asked by his father about the Fragments of Anir or Kelsus.

"Ervas, what happened with the fragments…? D-Did you got them?" asked Jason.

"Oh yeah, about those things… Aren't they super dangerous if they're left alone?" asked Anna.

"Indeed…" said Ismene with a worried expression.

Ervas quickly finished his third hamburger and drank some fruit juice, answering afterward.

"They're with us now. The two fragments that made the Necromancer are separated and in each of our souls. So his existence should be done for, as he was a byproduct of the fragments themselves," said Ervas.

"Oh yeah! Ervas got something called Spiritual Blue Flame or whatever, and I got a black and slimy ooze… Look at this!" said Veronica, as she began to release a black and slimy substance from within her armor.

"Ah, Veronica, don't get that over the food!" said Gaius.

"Oops, okay, sorry~," said Veronica while laughing, as she manipulated the ooze to come back inside of her body just as naturally.

"That's certainly a unique fragment… What does it even do?" asked Feroya.

"Ah well, it seems that, aside from working as literal slime, it lets me absorb and encapsulate emotions. I just put this ooze over something, and it will go inside of their nostrils, mouth, or any orifice right into the brain!" said Veronica.

"…"

"…"

"…"

"…"

"…"

"…"

"…"

"…That's terrifying, peko!" said Pekorina.

"Y-Yeah, quite the… weapon," said Goliath.

"Uwah, Aunt Veronica, never use that in us… Okay?" asked Amelia.

"It would be pretty horrible," said Acathea.

"Huh? I would never! But maybe I would in our enemies, teehee~!" said Veronica, winking, as she tried to be cute instead of terrifying… But this only made her even more terrifying.

"I can make these flames and manipulate them… Well, we can freely exchange fragments, so we'll get to learn the other fragments usages sooner or later anyway," said Ervas, as a blue flame emerged from his hand.

"Ooh! Blue flame! That's less frightening, peko!" said Pekorina.

"But it got pretty cool out of the sudden, why is it?" asked Jason.

"Ah, could it be the flames effect?" asked Gaius.

"Yeah, these flames, instead of producing heat, absorb it, and quickly drop the temperature of the surroundings… Sorry about that," said Ervas, making the flames dissipate.

"Wait… Can't we use those flames to… Make ice cream?!" asked Veronica.

"I never imagined it that way… We could even create refrigerators by leaving a flame inside some kind of artifact to store and froze food," said Ervas.

"Eh? What is a refri… gerator?" asked Acathea.

"It was an item of our world, a store where you can store food, and the freezing temperatures will make the food get frozen, perishing very slowly," said Veronica.

"Oh? That sounds interesting!" said Gaius.

"Although food roots very slowly already because I can use a variety of Life Attribute Spells to make it stay fresh and alive," said Ervas.

"Yeah, but ice cream!" said Veronica.

"Ice cream sounds nice… Okay, let us prepare ice cream… someday…" said Ervas.

"Well, I was going to do it even if you didn't approve of it, fufu," said Veronica as she drank some bear-kin beer.

"So the Necromancer was made out of those blue flames and… black ooze, my lords?" asked Mysticia.

"Yeah, he was made out of these two elements… But he was also the soul of a Lich, of some kind of Lich that came from the Demon Continent, it seems. I believe that Lich was parasitized by the Fragments at some point in his life… or death. Though we have no idea why he came to this continent… Unless he was being chased down from the Demon Continent already," said Veronica.

"But the soul of that Lich was completely taken over by the Demon God King's will, and by the combination of both of them, the 'Necromancer' as we know it, was born," said Ervas.

"How do you know so much about this information?! Even I didn't know this!" said Azra.

"When we ate the Necromancer's soul, we got a few his memories," said Ervas.

"Yeah, although they were all twisted and fragmented, so it was hard to summarize everything…" said Veronica.

"E-Eeehh?! So you can get memories from the souls you eat?!" asked Pekorina.

"Partially. But this did not happen with Oggoth, so we assume that this must be something new that awakened on us," said Ervas.

"Yeah, pretty cool right? Maybe we will eat Bestellen one day, and we will see the early days of Kritias and all of that," said Veronica.

"It is concerning to me that you're already considering eating the strongest God in Kritias…" said Ismene.

"Amazing! To be expected of our lords, fufufu!" laughed Lilith as she praised the lords, Ervas and Veronica.

"We have to set our standards high, or we won't be able to get anywhere, right? We have to have a goal," said Ervas.

"B-But that's a pretty big goal!" said Anna.

"It is an honest one. We simply want Bestellen's demise," said Veronica with a gentle smile.

"Both? Or only the one in the Kritias you come from?" asked Jason.

"It would be ideal for that one to die, but this one, won't get anywhere else…" said Ervas.

"Hm, both should be nice~," said Veronica.

"Both is good," said Ervas.

"Yeah, both are good," said Veronica.

"Well, it is nice to know that you're so motivated to do such a thing… but until now, please take it easy, we are already doing everything incredibly fast…" said Jason.

"You may be right, dad…" said Ervas.

"Yes, we will take it slowly, step by step. Although taking it too easy would be bad. The world won't wait for us to get prepared, this is why we must do everything we can to grow as fast as possible, so we can be capable of fighting against the many threats approaching us…" said Veronica.

"That is very right, my lady," said Lilith.

"We have to do things as we are planning them right now, let's concentrate in the present and not in the far future," said Ervas.

"Very true, my lord," said Lilith.

"Now that we have brought the Harpies and the Bear-kin to safety and defeated the Necromancer, the next course of action would be preparing for the incoming army of humans, led by a bigshot from Bestellen's church… Ah, you don't know how much I will enjoy crushing his soul," said Veronica, as her eyes turned more crimson than ever, and her slime seemed to be coated in undying malice.

"He looks like a good bag of EXP as well, his blood seems nutritious," said Ervas, his crimson eyes were just as bright and eerie as Veronica, although he did not smile, there was a strong aura of bloodthirsty surrounding him.

"Indeed… I shall bring him to you, my lords…" said Lilith, who had been recently sticking to her 'lords' and shared their maliciousness.

"A-Anyways, we'll do that step by step too, right? How are the kids and the Heroes corpses and souls, by the way?" asked Ragdaz, trying to change the mood.

"Oh, yeah, how are my fellow former pawns?" asked Azra.

"I hope they're better than how I ended up…" said Sevapheso.

"Ah, don't say that, Sevapheso, everything ended fine!" said Feroya, grabbing Sevapheso's hand.

"Several of the children were used as containers for negative emotions, some even were inside the large chimera zombies, and several died… But we caught their souls, all of them, and we are currently repairing their bodies through our clones," said Ervas.

"The same for the former heroes and warriors of the past… Thing is, most of them were too twisted, so to adapt and recover their minds, it will take a long time…" said Veronica.

"I see… It is understandable… Those people had been a prisoner of the Necromancer for so long, I wish we could do better for them," said Ragdaz.

"Indeed, many of them seemed deeply psychologically scarred… Most of them will never be the same they used to be," said Ervas.

"We'll make sure to give them a lot of therapy while trying to delete those bad memories of having their souls tortured…" said Veronica.

"We just said that you needed to take it easy, but you can't simply take it easy, isn't it? It seems as natural as breathing for you two to work so hard…" said Jason.

"Don't worry dad, it is what we are better at," said Ervas.

"Yeah! Don't worry, I don't get tired anyways!" said Veronica with a warm smile.

"Sigh… Maybe one day we will have to force them to stop using clones and relax for a day completely, like for real!" said Anna.

"Hm, sounds good to me…" said Ismene.
