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

Chapter 40 - Side : Ervas Learns How To Craft And Cook!

-----

The hours went by… and Ervas had finished a Bone weapon and shield prototype, while the armor was still ongoing. ??

The weapon were just sharpened bones using a knife with 'Telekinesis', stuck together with hardened ligaments taken from the corpses which Ervas dried by overusing 'Disinfection' in them until even the blood inside was drained.

It was rough, but it should be enough for Jason to learn 'Sword Technique' or 'Club Technique'… whatever weapon did the system considered several pieces of sharpened bones and horns stuck together be.

And about the shield, they were several ribs stuck together, alongside the horns of horned rabbits, it seemed quite solid, and it could take on the punch of a goblin with relative ease.

Only a few days have passed since Jason learned all those magic skills, and he would now begin to learn techniques. Ervas was really becoming some kind of teacher figure to his own father.

Due to Jason and Ervas practicing magic, Jason managed to reach level 2 in Spirit Magic, mostly thanks to Ervas ability to implant experiences on people, but Jason put a lot of effort as well.

Gnome was always around Jason, and he would use him to conveniently move the ground around with more ease than before while handling the crops.

Ervas was interested in the 'Mineral Refinement' spell that Jason learned, which could help him out to refine minerals in the future, being able to craft stronger equipment or other things.

Night came and Ervas was dazzled by what the System showed to him, his efforts had paid off today.

[You acquired the [Crafting; Level 1] Skill!]

[You acquired the [Commanding; Level 1] Skill!]

[You acquired the [Strengthen Followers; Level 1] Skill!]

"Oh? This is… 'Crafting'… such a useful skill… and those two… 'Commanding' and 'Strengthen Followers' will surely make my plants stronger now" said Ervas, with high spirits.

It seems that by commanding a large amount of 'followers' (plants), Ervas managed to learn these two Passive Skills. While 'Crafting' was perhaps because he finished two 'prototypes' of equipment made out of bones in a single day.

"Muh, muh…" said Gaia, a bit tired, resting over Ervas's silky hair.

"You worked hard today commanding the plants, I will take the lead now. Thanks a lot, Gaia" said Ervas, feeding Gaia with his mana so she could rest and nourish herself some more.

"Muhh…" she muttered, falling asleep.

"Ah, she's asleep," said Ervas.

The door suddenly opened to reveal Jason coming with a bucket filled with a few carrots and sweet potatoes.

"I'm home! Son, Gaia! Look! Someone just gave me these sweet potatoes! I couldn't believe my eyes; these people are sometimes so generous!" said Jason.

"Hm… let me check them." Said Ervas, floating with 'Flight' and checking the potatoes with 'Appraisal'.

"These potatoes seem to be poisoned by mana," said Ervas.

"…Eh?"

"These people are unbelievable. Why did they gift you poisoned potatoes? Sigh… I kind of want to destroy their houses now" said Ervas, using 'Disinfection' in all the potatoes while also using 'Mana Drain' to drain the excess, often poisonous mana.

When mana is concentrated inside a vegetable, it can result in poisonous to common people, who have not become too good at handling mana inside of their bodies. The overcharge of mana might make them get stomach sick, or have their mana veins completely burst, dying in the spot.

"They're clean now, although it wouldn't have been as poisonous to me and you, as we both have become good at handling mana," said Ervas.

"T-Those bastards! They give me poisoned potatoes! Just wait in here Ervas, I am going to-"

"Wait a moment, don't rush things, father. Just ignore them for now. Yeah, they probably wanted to kill me with them, but it is better to ignore them and make them think that we just survived the potatoes…" said Ervas.

"I guess so… if I make much of a fuss, they might go berserk as well and forcefully enter and kill you…" muttered Jason.

"Exactly… at least you're quick to catch what I meant. Well, in other news… look! A lot of meat, I hunted it myself with the help of the plants" said Ervas.

"Ah! Three Horned Rabbits and one Demon Rat?! And they are already butchered! Did you do that?"

"Yes, it was fun, I ate a whole Demon Rat as well. It was delicious. I really needed some protein" said Ervas.

"Protein? A-Anyways, I will cook them right away! We'll have rabbit and rat soup with sweet potatoes and carrots!" said Jason, celebrating the delicious food.

"Wait, let us cook something different… have you ever heard of hamburgers? Or what about meatballs?"

"Hamburg… huh? And meatballs… but we don't have a meat grinder" said Jason.

"I can use a knife and my Telekinesis. Observe" said Ervas, chopping big chunks of meat and mincing it at an incredible speed with 'Telekinesis??? and the knife.

"Such speed… my son is way deadlier than I thought," said Jason.

"Don't say that… oh, I also crafted you a shield and a weapon and the armor is in process… you will be learning Techniques today" said Ervas, mincing the meat with precision.

"Ah! Very well, I will work hard to meet my son's expectations!" said Jason.

[You acquired the [Butcher; Level 1] Skill!]

[You acquired the [Cooking; Level 1] Skill!]

Ervas and his father had a nice dinner with soup and meatballs, and Jason had a slight headache after learning Unarmed Fighting Technique, Club Technique, and Shield Technique on the same night.
