Demon Queen Rebirth: I Reincarnated as a Living Armor?!
Chapter 370 - The Demon Gods Of Seashore-----
Within the dark and eerie interiors of some kind of underground dungeon beneath a large manor in Seashore Town, a group of men wearing black clothes kneeled before an altar that showed a large golden medal, with a large smile and a single eye.
??
Such altar emanated a powerful and deadly presence from within as if it were about to leak and devour someone if it were to step in or over it…
The presence was so overwhelming that even greater pressure on the pair could be felt as if everything were heavier around such an altar.
The men in black robes then carried an unwilling person, who they had tied up, he struggled as much as he could, even to the point of screaming, but as much as he despaired, he could not do anything.
"Borunidhan-sama, we have brought you a new sacrifice to increase our prayers and beliefs. May your blessing be upon us…" said one of the men in black robes, who seemed to be leading the rest, a mysterious old man with a wicked smile.
"This is a mere slave, but he might finally make of his life something more meaningful," said another.
"Indeed, rejoice, as you're becoming one with Borunidhan-sama," said a third.
The salve screamed as much as he could, or well, tried, as he had his mouth covered and could only cry in fear as a golden dagger quickly reached his chest, being torn open as his still-beating heart was taken out of it, and being shown to him…
The unfortunate man quickly died after that in horror, as his Dead Spirit suddenly surged out of his corpse, and feeling the presence of something within Seashore calling him, he flew directly there… leaving behind the horrifying sacrifice ritual…

Ervas and Veronica's restaurant was finally closing their doors, as the second day of the most famous restaurant in the Red-Light District had been a total success this time as well.
The party was now celebrating by having a large dinner inside the building, eating a lot of the leftover ingredients and also the roasted meat of the Sea Snake Tail, whose meat was incredibly delicious and tender.
"Tomorrow we'll bring you three as well, so you better come register as citizens with Willian," said Veronica.
"Indeed, we'll have to wake up early tomorrow, after that, we will register you in the Adventurer Guild," said Ervas.
"Does that mean that we can finally be Adventurers? So nice!" said Mitiliph.
"I've been waiting for this day my whole life… Finally!" said Acaracia.
"Hm, I am going to grow strong and defeat a ton of monsters to level up!" said Bert.
"Such energetic kids… Maybe we should also join you back. We are quite rusty, but we used to be pretty decent in our golden age," said Jose.
"Yeah, let's help the kids get stronger," said Bartholomew.
"I would appreciate that," said Ervas.
"Indeed! Hm. Now that we have registered in the Tamer, and Adventurer Guilds, we should be able to get through things way better. Now we simply need to build up a reputation and some other stuff… We should also slowly start our plan to show that Undead can be tamed and make them more accepted… Although that might take its time," said Ervas.
"And in a few days, we can begin our sea exploration! After we find a good enough boat… There are many abandoned ones, but they're all underwater though," said Veronica.
"Also, our plan to replace the Dark Tails should be in motion in the next days, and the production of items is going quite well…" said Ervas.
"Everything seems pretty smooth…" said Veronica.
"But it is not?" asked Jason.
"Yeah, the Vampires are a big issue…" said Ervas.
"And probably the aristocrats that don't want us. Mostly Allan though, but there might be many others in the future… this is why we need to make more aristocrats our friends, while we try to look up for slaves to free… And well yeah, taking over the other underground organizations will bring a lot of advantages, as we can also free all those slaves they are holding, and if we simply take over all organizations, the entire underground of this city will be dominated by us…" said Veronica.
"Yeah, that's the long-term plan," said Ervas while nodding.
"Thankfully the Vampires cannot walk at day most of the time, or need to use a lot of magic, so we won't be assaulted by them as easily," Veronica.
"More or less, they are still a nuisance, huh?" asked Anna.
"Yes, we would love to just crush their Boss, but he's not even here… Maybe we should track them down whenever one of them shows up here…" said Ervas.
"Whenever they come here, we need to be prepared!" said Ismene.
"Yes, they might be pretty strong…" said Jason.
"Also I don't know why but I feel like this place is hiding way more than we imagine… there might be Demon Gods lurking around this place, already using the people in here to do their bidding to an extent…" said Veronica.
"Oh yes, definitely, I can feel the presence of a Demon God nearby… I can sense the presence of Demon Gods in here, it stinks… there are actually… Damn, this is a nest of them!" said Araba, who had been called by Ervas and Veronica, he was, like always, inside of his crystal ball.
Through all of this six months' time skip he had never gotten out.
"Well we are constantly speaking with Dead Spirits of people who know stuff, so we are getting always informed…" said Ervas.
"Have you found anything?" asked Ismene.
"Yes, recently, the member of a cult was sacrificed as an offering to a Demon God, his soul flew here not long after and told everything to Veronica the moment he saw her," said Ervas.
"Eh?! That soon?" asked Anna.
"Yes, there are Demon Gods everywhere in this place, they love to gather where there are people to manipulate," said Ervas.
"And get nourished by their worship and sacrifices…" said Veronica.
"Damn them! Where are they? Let's go wreck them and you can eat that damn demon god so you can get stronger!" said Leonidas, readying to fight!
"No, calm down, not yet…" said Ervas.
"Yeah, the cult itself is being backed by some aristocrats… And surprise, surprise, it is Aran," sighed Veronica.
"Aran?! Wait, that guy is the one from the items?" asked Acathea.
"Yeah… He is one of the main heads of this one Demon God Cult, we gotta exterminate them if possible, but even then, if the Demon God is not dealt with, the guy might as well reappear later on and get new worshipers… It is useless if we cannot kill him. This is why we have to find a way for him to descend, a reason to do so," said Veronica.
"And there's a pretty juicy reason he would do, one that is being held in one of the underground organizations named Shadow Knives…" said Ervas.
"Juicy reason?" asked Jason.
"Dad, what do you think a Demon God most wants to grow stronger?" asked Ervas.
"Erm… worshippers?" asked Jason.
"Well, aside from that," said Ervas.
"Err…" muttered Jason.
"Well I am going to answer for Jason, Demon God-King Parts!" said Veronica.
"Oh!" said everyone, none of them had much of a clue except a few ones that were keeping themselves silent.
"Wait, where's one of those?" asked Kireina.
"The Shadow Knives have two, actually!" said Veronica.
"What?!" asked Ditoyle.
"Yeah, you see, in this continent the church has managed to compact Demon God-King Parts into items named Demon God-King Equipment, sealing them with runes and using them in special weapons or armor to unleash part of the power of the parts… The parts are kept safely sealed and people can wield their power without being parasitized…" said Ervas.
"T-That should be illegal!" said Alesia.
"Well, it isn't…" said Ervas.
"More importantly, we have to find a way to make these two organizations met, so the Demon God can descend to grab the Demon God-King Parts and then we smack him," said Veronica.
"How are you even planning to do something like that…?" asked Ismene.
"We will simply do as we did with the Dark Tails and just straight up invade the Shadow Knives," said Veronica.
"Yeah, there are a few Dead Spirits from the slaves that they killed, they told us where their hideout is," said Ervas.
"Sounds like a plan! And then when we control the Shadow Knives, you will contact Aran, and boom! Demon God rap battle, right?" asked Kireina.
"Rap… battle? Well, more or less… Although this Demon God is different from others, and it might be at its full power unlike the ones we have fought… We need to be well prepared," said Ervas.
"Yeah, but that would be the plan, pretty simple and easy, isn't it?" asked Veronica.
"Yeah… though I am curious. What's the name of this Demon God?" asked Ismene.
"Yeah, are you keeping it as a secret?" asked Kireina.
"Just spit it out, say the forbidden name!" said Azra.
"Oh, well you guys never asked… This Demon God's name is Borunidhan, the Demon God of False Treasures…" said Veronica.
"False… Treasures? What a weird Divinity," said Araba.
"Yeah but that's how it is bud," said Veronica.
"He also has a weird name… Well, all Demon Gods have weird names," said Ervas.
"I wonder why there's a cult for such a God… and are there no Vampires worshipping it? You would believe they would worship Demon Gods if they were so evil…" said Kireina.
"There might be, or perhaps the whole cult is an ally with the Vampires, if we find any there it will be like killing three birds with one stone," said Ervas.
"We can't count on everything going perfectly though," said Veronica.
"Hm, there might be some scheme being taken into place… we better prepare," said Kireina.
