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

-----

While one of Veronica's Composite Clones, made by many of her smaller clones in the shape of spiders taught Pekoran, Pekorina, and many other younglings or citizens interested in magic, Veronica was with Anna in their 'date'.

Of course, it was not a conventional date… although something was happening that was making Veronica release very lewd sounds.

Veronica's body parts were put into the hot furnace as Anna used her large hammer (which was also a Veronica Clone) to 'massage' Veronica's main body parts.

She had started with the greaves, then the gloves and arms, and now it was the torso's turn.

Clash!

"Ahhh…! Yes, Anna, right there~!" said Veronica.

Clash!

"Oooh~ That really hits the spot," said Veronica.

Clash!

"Ah! Your technique has developed so much!" said Veronica.

"…I think it is enough for today, Veronica…" said Anna with a flushed expression… although what she was doing wasn't sexual at all, Veronica's moans of pleasure made the experience seem far different than it really was.

"But, Anna, the night is young!" said Veronica, jokingly.

"It's not even night yet… and you also came to learn more about blacksmithing, right?" asked Anna.

"Well, yeah! I also want you to teach me Axe Technique… as I now have this beloved little ax gifted by you with me~ Fufu" said Veronica with a teasing smile, she liked to tease Anna sometimes as her reactions were the cutest.

"Okay, but let's start with blacksmithing for the next couple of days… you learn quite fast so I don't think it will take you more than a week for it, we can practice Axe Techniques tomorrow morning," said Anna with a gentle smile, recovering her composure.

"Alright," said Veronica.

Anna then taught Veronica a few techniques of her own that she had learned by practicing through many years, hitting metals with her hammer after putting them into the furnace to mold them into blades and other types of items.

Veronica used her Memory Retention Skill to memorize instantly the movements of Anna and reproduce them almost exactly as Anna did them with her own hands… of course, the results were way smaller due to Anna having a high level of the skill while also having experience through many years.

However, with Veronica's unexpected cheat of 'Good Memory' through the 'Memory Retention' Skill, she was indeed capable of learning things at an incredibly fast pace by memorizing anything she saw, replicate it and improve upon such replication.

Anna saw with a baffled expression as Veronica used her hammer with great skillfulness while hitting a long piece of iron, molding it as a short sword. 

She was also slowly figuring out how to use her mana into each hit so the weapon could be molded more to her will, just like Anna was capable of doing after many years of learning on her own.

While it could be said that Anna was a prodigy as she is self-taught herself Blacksmithing and improved upon it after some years to the point that she could easily rival professional blacksmiths of the Human Kingdoms, Veronica was a prodigy in… copying her and improving even further beyond into her own techniques.

However, even after copying her techniques true the Memory Retention Skill, Veronica still lacked the gracefulness of Anna, and Anna still found many areas where she needed to point out her mistakes.

"Hit harder there… and be gentler at the tip of the material… No, not so gentle, just a bit… yeah, that is it… Don't ignore the corners!"

Anna had transformed into a tyrannical teacher with her firm and tomboyish voice, which could easily intimidate most younglings that wanted to learn blacksmithing… but Veronica was happy to be instructed by someone so talented.

"Alright, ma'am! Okay! Oops! I also got it! Wait… I forgot the corners!" said Veronica.

"Quickly, put it in the furnace for a few seconds!" said Anna.

"Yes, ma'am!" said Veronica, putting the piece of iron into the furnace as the strong flames slowly made the metal softer. Veronica brought it back into the anvil and began to hit it with the hammer once again in the corners and the areas she missed.

"Good, good… Wait! Hit the tip, don't be a fool, you always forget the important parts!" said Anna.

"Oops, into it, ma'am!" said Veronica cheerfully, as she gathered every second of information into her mind through the 'Memory Retention' Skill, learning at an outstanding pace.

'She's getting every point that I give her… it won't even be two days and there won't be much that I can teach her anymore…' thought Anna.

'If I learn this quick enough, I might be able to pleasure myself- I mean, refine my metallic body when Anna cannot…' thought Veronica.

Both had quite different mindsets about their current situations…

As the hours went by and Anna taught Veronica many insights about Blacksmithing, the night quickly fell as it was yet another day that was coming to an end in the village (or city?).

Veronica and Anna left the workshop as they made their way to the large building at the center of the village, which was made to have five floors and resembled a small apartment complex. This building was made by Ervas and Veronica to resemble their first life home… it was also seen as the first 'castle', as it could only resemble that type of building for the people of the village.

Entering the 'castle' Veronica and Anna walked towards the dining room, a large palace-like room where a giant table spread across in the middle. This table was made with sawdust, made into a golem which then converted the sawdust into solid wood.

There, Ervas, Jason, Ismene, Amelia, Acathea, and many others were present, having dinner while being served with food from Veronica's Clones and Lilith's sisters.

"Hey, we are back!" said Veronica with Anna.

"Ah, Lady Veronica! So you've come from your date? How was it? Did you two bonded together?" asked Ozgeth who had stayed with Legion to not disturb Veronica in her 'date' with Anna.

"I-It was not a date!" said Anna furious but flustered at the same time.

"Your face kind of makes it clear, Anna…" said Ismene with a mischievous smile.

"Oh my, how envious I am… I would offer many sacrifices if I could have the opportunity to date Veronica-sama!" said Mysticia while waving her raccoon tail around.

"Once again, it was not a date, Mysticia… if you want to date Veronica, you can ask her, I don't control that!" said Anna, sitting in a wooden chair at Acathea's side.

"Auntie Anna did auntie Veronica learned the Blacksmithing Skill?" asked Acathea as she snacked in sandwiches made with pork meat and fresh vegetables, which she ate in one gulp each.

"Not yet, little Acathea… but most likely tomorrow… Veronica learns things at an outstanding pace, which even terrifies the likes of me… It feels as if she is an endless abyss that constantly absorbs any knowledge or experience that I show to her…" said Anna.

"I would also like to learn Blacksmithing after Veronica, Anna. Could you teach me whenever you have free time?" asked Ervas, who was too little for Anna to imagine him wielding a hammer and hitting a hot piece of metal…

"But Ervas, you're so little! Wouldn't you hurt your fingers?" asked Anna.

"I could use my skeleton…" said Ervas, extending the bones of his fingers outside of his flesh, which horrified Jason at his left side.

"Ervas, don't do that!!!" shouted Jason.

"Okay, okay…" said Ervas while retrieving the bones into his body.

"I don't think that you should use your bones to grasp the hammer…" said Anna.

"Well, I could also just use Telekinesis," said Ervas as he used Telekinesis to make everything in the table float and then slowly put it all back into the table, showcasing his amazing talent and meticulous mind.

"I… I guess that works?" said Anna, forcing herself to remember that the little and doll-like half-demon boy was a monster on his own league.

"Thanks," said Ervas with a mild smile.

"Anna, you shouldn't doubt our lord's talent!" said Lilith, as she was wearing maid-like clothes tailored by Veronica at their request while bringing a large plate that held a whole roasted Demon Boar, putting it in the middle of the plate as Goliath who was sitting with everyone took it entirely with his giant fork and began to eat it without any scrupulous.

"Goliath! That was for my lord! You beast! Give it back!" said Lilith angered.

"Eh? What are you talking about? I took it first, and I am hungry!" said Goliath.

"So what?! I cooked it carefully for my lord!" said Lilith.

"Lilith calm down, it is just a demon boar, we have over fifty stored, you don't have to start another discussion… I don't mind Goliath's eating it, after all, he's part of the family and you should learn to share the food that you cook," said Ervas.

"My lord… b-but… very well then, I shall go and cook another one, specifically for you!" said Lilith, without learning anything at all and going back to cook another demon boar only for Ervas.

"Well… I guess I won't eat that one, so she doesn't get mad…" said Goliath.

"I would be for the best, Goliath…" said Jason with a bitter smile. He was still processing how his son got himself four beautiful ladies doing everything for him at any hour of the day… he was feeling overshadowed as a parent and was also worried about his son's future marriages. Thankfully, for now there was only motherly love within the Lilith sisters, as they saw Ervas as their little brother that they needed to faithfully take care of.
