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

-----

Ervas and Veronica's consciousness were suddenly sent to a different place.

A being rested in front of them, made of blue flames, black goo, and the half of a skull.

"Youuuuu… Youuuuu…! I am… the Demon God King…! I am… the fear bringer! The annihilator of Gods…! I feast on your fears and do as I please with your lives…!"

"Rotten to the core, isn't he?" said Veronica.

"Hm… But I wonder. Why is he like this?" asked Ervas.

"Perhaps the circumstances of his life? Of his existence?" wondered Veronica.

"But what kind of existence would lead to a being to simply desire to crush the weak incessantly? Wasn't he born a god? Not even Bestellen is this rotten, even he shows some favoritism and love to a race of mortals which he desires to protect… But this being… has he ever been something else than just hate?" wondered Ervas.

"Hm. I do wonder as well… But can we even ask him now? I don't think he would ever answer us anyways, even if he were to be 'sane'. Simply put, he's an insane being, a different mentality than us, we cannot comprehend him because of this," said Veronica.

"Youuu… Gahahaha… Do you really think I am that different than you two?" asked the Necromancer's half skull.

"You two… are just as bloodthirsty… You desire it! The same thing as me… You are the same! The same as me! You desire to be at the top! To crush anyone that dare oppose you! To control everyone, and to make them your pawns! You desire power… I feel it! I feel it within you! You are no different than me! Not at all, not at all! Gahahahahahahaha! GAHAHAHAHAHAHA!"

The half skull laughed incessantly, as its teeth cracked.

"We are different than you…" said Ervas.

"We don't fight for our mere pleasure," said Veronica.

"We fight to protect what is precious to us…" said Ervas.

"But if by doing it… we fall into the what could be seen as 'evil'…" said Veronica.

"Then we'll become the embodiment of every sin…" said Ervas.

Their souls combined into one, showing a monstrous and grotesque phantasmal existence, grabbing the Necromancer's half skull body, and beginning to slowly crush it with their spectral claws.

"Nnngguuuoooohh…! You… This power… your desires, even after your stupid speech… We are the same… the same!"

Crack…

"This is why you wield my powers… This is why you can use my fragments…!"

Crack, crack…

"And you… you will not see the last of me… Because between you and I, there can only be one!"

Crack, crack!

"Nnngnghhhaaaaaahhh…! You will see me soon! Gahaha! D-Don't… nnghh…! Don't think that you have defeated me yet…! NNNNGGGYAAAAAAAHHH…!"

Crack, crack!

CRASH!

The Necromancer was crushed within Ervas and Veronica's ethereal claws, and slurped like a noodle into their soul, being completely assimilated.

Within what they crushed, two small fragments, which seemed to have the life of their own jumped towards them, one was a small, black-colored ooze and the other a small blue flame.

"Main body…!"

"Where is the main body?!"

"Our true purpose, where?!"

"Find! Become one!"

"Shut up…"

"Silence."

"Shut… up?!"

"Silence…?"

"Yes, sleep."

"Sleep…?"

"We sleep…"

Ding!

As Ervas and Veronica were drawn to reality, they quickly separated their souls and went back to their original forms, everyone within their army sat down over the empty battlefield, gasping for air, and sighing in relief.

"We did it… We defeated the Necromancer!" celebrated a Harpy Warrior man.

"Indeed… we did it… It was… more intense than we had ever imagined…" said another.

"It was incredibly crazy!" said a Harpy Magician girl.

"But we worked all together, as one!" said a bear-kin woman.

"And we defeated him, all together… We all, put our grain of salt into this…!" said a bear-kin man.

"Indeed… It was more arduous than we imagined…" said an undead.

"I guess our differences weren't present at all when we all joined together…" said an old Harpy man.

"Hm, I guess we are not so different, aren't we? Even with the Undead, everyone, every single one of us helped at the end…" said a young bear-kin girl.

"We all worked hard for this victory…" said an undead.

"Man… I'm beat!" said an harpy girl.

"I literally can't move, anyone, please, could you assemble me together?" asked another undead.

"Alright…!" said a bear-kin man.

"Aren't these undead just like us? Are they even monsters?" wondered a harpy man.

"Monster? I would like if you could call me an 'arisen'," said another undead.

"Alright, alright, 'Arisen-sama'!" laughed a bear-kin warrior with a long beard.

Ervas and Veronica glanced at the armies of different races and cultures talking with each other, despite their differences of race, both life and death spoke as if they were all good friends.

Bonds forged in battle are stronger than anything, and those who had forged them would continue to be friends through many battles ahead.

"But for real, that was wild, peko! I never thought I could conjure such a powerful spell, peko!" said Pekorina.

"Well, you didn't exactly conjure it, Pekorina…" said Acathea.

"All of us conjured it, we all added a bit of our power!" said Amelia.

"And our Spirits as well… Although they are now all very tired…" said Ismene, as she glanced at the many Elemental Spirits resting over their master's shoulders, some were even sleeping.

"We really pushed them too hard…" said Ervas.

"Y-Yeah, we owe them an apology…" said Veronica.

"You did what was necessary, I am sure that they would be proud of it!" said Shade.

"That's right, everyone is happy now, even if they're sleeping for now!" said Gaia.

"We simply need to level up our Spirit Magic Skills so our Spirits can grow stronger, and we'll manage to let them use more power," said Gaius.

"That's right, we have been slacking on this…" said Ismene.

"Let's work hard, everyone!" said Jason.

"Yeah, yeah, but not now, we just killed the big bad! I am hungry, peko!" said Pekorina.

"How about we celebrate with a big feast?" asked Pekoran.

"On it!" said Veronica.

"I'm rather hungry as well… Does anyone wants Anir Burgers?" asked Ervas.

"N-No… I don't want that," said Anna.
