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

-----

Graham smiled, as the moment he asked for the Demon King, the only behind this entire crusade finally emerged from the crowd of demons and beast-kin, the young half-demon boy!

Although his appearance seemed more bizarre than Graham had expected.

The boy had wolf-like ears atop his head and a fluffy silverly whitetail at his back. His skin was pale white as if he were dead, and his eyes were crimson red, alongside his hair that was completely white, despite having been said to have black hair before.

And the small horn described was now a rather large one, resembling not like the ones that Demons would have, but it was similar to those of a Dragon, it even had a fire within, making it quite bizarre.

His nails were long and resembled claws, and his hands were covered in red-colored scales.

Even his mouth released a bit of fire, and his entire presence held a phantasmagoric presence, combined with also several others.

He seemed to be a strange, and bizarre amalgamation of many monstrous things…

Graham could not have asked for more!

This was perfect! Perfect!

How would this boy be the future Demon King if his appearance and power weren't incredibly grotesque, to begin with?!

Ervas said his name, as Graham smiled maniacally, his entire body is covered in an Aura of Light and Life.

"Good! Demon King Ervas… This is the day that you will be finally slain! This is the day that the challenge that Bestellen-sama has brought to me will be finally unleashed! I will triumph, and become even stronger from-"

"You talk too much," said Ervas, as he breathed until his lungs were completely filled with air and then screamed.

Yes, he screamed!

"!!!"

The sound waves, however, were immensely high pitched, making the vibrations produced by the scream produce an enormous cannon of semi-transparent energy!

"(A by combining this with Psychokinesis…!)"

FLASH!

Ervas combined his Scream Skill with Psychokinesis, strengthening the waves and vibrations to an even greater extent!

BOOM!

Graham gnashed his teeth as he protected himself in a cage made of materialized magic, however, even that began to crack, and the nearby trees were blown away into the air like nothing!

Many unprepared soldiers flew through the skies, falling into the deep pit to never come out of there alive.

"Nnnngguuoohhhh…! S-Such power! Yes, this is it! This is it! HAHAHA! Bestellen-sama, may your light guide my path! Heavenly Life Onslaught!"

Graham laughed maniacally as he took Ervas powerful attack head-on, raising his arms to the skies and then, enhancing his muscles even further beyond, his eyes gleamed with an eerie yellow light, as his mace grew in size, covered in light and life!

Flash!

Graham broke through Ervas attack directly, raising his staff towards him and smacking the boy with everything he had!

An explosion of iridescent golden light emerged, as Graham's tremendous strength fell over Ervas head directly!

BOOM!

"Oh? This…!"

However, Graham quickly realized that what he hit was not… physical!

"So you can smack one of my Phantom Clones? Not bad…" said Ervas, raising his hands and releasing a wave of Psychokinetic power, clashing against Graham's back!

BOOM!

"Nnnghh…! OOOH! Magic… release!"

FLASH!

Graham's body suddenly released an enormous wave of yellow-gold light, suppressing Ervas Psychokinesis!

"Oh… Magic Release, a Spell from your awakened Life-Light Magic, is it?" asked Ervas.

"HM?! You can see through my status?! Haha! To be expected of the Demon King! Now come, let me smack you to death!!!" laughed Graham, jumping from the ground as enormous angelic-like wings made of light emerged from his back, flapping and letting him fly through the sky!

"Archangel Wings… Another Spell of your awakened Magic is it?" wondered Ervas, as he produced an enormous mass of bones over Graham's sight, manipulating it as a gigantic bony claw, he closed it, crushing Graham inside!

CRASH!

However!

Crack, crack…!

"Interesting…" said Ervas.

CRASH!

"Amazing! Just how many powers do you possess, Demon King?!" asked Graham, fling towards Ervas as he generated hundreds of floating light blades, launching them towards Ervas as they detonated the moment they neared him!

BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!

Ervas managed to evade some and offset the damage through his Psychokinetic Barriers, however, the damage seemed to even penetrate his defenses, reaching to his flesh, and burning him slightly.

However, although the burns were nothing compared to his regeneration abilities, the damage seemed to keep on his skin, as if these bright lights contained some kind of curse effect.

"Do you like them?! These Spells are specially made to combat your Demons! It deals extra damage to any non-human! And it even leaves a lasting damage effect in your flesh! I will use this power to defeat you, Demon King! The same power I have used to defeat all those pesky Demons and Beast-kin spawns of the devil!" laughed Graham, as Ervas, although calm, seemed pissed off already.

Just remembering his past and how his people were killed by people similar to this sick bastard, made Ervas veins begin to appear on his forehead.

"You… What's your name?" asked Ervas, flying around while evading Graham's attacks.

"My name is Graham Gold! One of the Five Constellations!" said Graham proudly.

Ervas then seemed to be taken aback by his past.

Amongst the many important figures that went to invade his Kingdom in his previous life, there was a particular group of incredibly strong Battle Popes, the Five Constellations.

All five of them slaughtered his people with a ridiculous amount of fervency as if crushing the skulls of young children produced them a grotesque and monstrous pleasure.

Ervas' mind could not take away such memories, they began to even delve into his mind even more…

He had considered simply killing Graham and using his soul to make a powerful Light Ghost or something… But now, he had decided something else.

"I see… Then I will kill you… And if you don't mind, I will also devour your soul," said Ervas calmly, even giving Graham a mild smile.

"…Hoh?! Then come at me!!!" roared Graham, smiling grotesquely as he heard Ervas words!

He knew it, if both of them wanted to kill each other so much, it was perfect!

This was his true trial, the trial that Bestellen-sama had left for him!

He needed to destroy this powerful chimeric demon king, and through this challenge, his power would finally rise to the same level as his peers!

CLASH!

CLASH!

Ervas and Graham clashed against each other, as Phantasmagoric Flames and Yellow Gold Light constantly tried to overpower the other!

Ervas kept generating large bone masses, which he controlled perfectly to both defend himself or attack, while Graham used his powerful Magic Spells and Techniques, combining them to generate outstanding attacks that even someone as strong as Ervas had a difficult time dealing with!

Veronica had considered helping him, but it seems that Ervas was dead set to fight Graham on his own!

Similarly to Graham, Ervas felt like this fight was needed for him to grow stronger, and to break through the progression wall he had recently hit!

He needed to slaughter this bastard, and to avenge his people… even if this Graham was not the same as the one in the future, he still had killed countless Demons and Beast-kin, a good enough excuse for Ervas to not doubt at all in devouring his soul!

"Hmm… These curses are complex, but not impossible to breakthrough," said Ervas, conjuring his Curse Eater Skill several times, until he finally managed to devour the curses that showered his body, he also healed his wounds immediately through Gaia's help, leaving Graham perplexed due to his mastery over Life Magic despite being a demon.

"(Using Life Magic against him would be useless, as he seems to be an expert on it. The only things I can rely on are my bones, phantom, and Psychokinesis… I don't have Death Attribute Magic like Veronica after all… Oh, right… Maybe Void Magic could work if I combine it with this and this…)" though Ervas, duplicating himself several times as countless Phantom Clones rushed towards Graham and exploded as he swung his staff against them, some even exploded by themselves, dealing some damage against him, and others even came charged with Curse Runes produced through Curse Synthesis.

BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!

Graham was showed in explosions filled with curses, burning flames, and freezing fire, he slowly healed himself as he continued to chase Ervas like an undying monster, surprising Ervas over his Mana capacity and how much he was consuming.

Graham did not even have a million Mana, but his mastery over it was even greater than Ervas and Veronica, and he used it incredibly efficiently, to the point that he had barely spent enough.

However, Ervas simply kept using Mana Drain and Life Drain, extracting the Mana and HP of Graham as much as he could, trying to dry the battle pope out of his power.

However, Graham had many special accessories around his body, bringing him a great amount of Mana Regeneration and even increasing his maximum Mana capacity, offsetting even Ervas Mana Drain. While his healing spells easily overpowered Ervas Life Drain.

Ervas charged his Psychokinesis once more, fusing it with his Spectral Soul and generating enormous Psychokinesis and Phantasmal Claws, alongside large spears that could even penetrate Rank 10 monsters, letting them all go towards Graham, following him like tracking missiles!

Boom! Boom! Boom!

However, Graham was clearly in the same realm of superhuman as Ervas, swinging his staff and unleashing waves of magic, he even destroyed Ervas's spells like nothing, while also resisting most of the damage from the powerful Psychokinesis Cannons.

"Gahahaha! Be purified, devil fiend!"

Graham laughed, as an enormous magic circle suddenly appeared out of thin air!

"Was he preparing that magic circle?" thought Ervas, as an enormous cannon of light and life showered him entirely…
