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

-----

The next day finally came, and Ervas and Veronica were already having breakfast within their Haunted Mansion, where they had invited the three children and the two old men they found on the building they bought.

"Today we'll assess most of what we had figured out recently. Mostly about this Dark Tail Organization, and the rest of the organizations that might reside in this city," said Ervas.

"Oh, sounds like fun," said Ismene.

"Well… Maybe?" said Veronica.

"Anyways, those two guys' names were Balto and Dako, and were low-ranked members within one of the prominent organizations within the Red-Light District, the Dark Tails," said Ervas.

"I see… So what do they do?" asked Jason.

"They mostly handle the territory of these slums, using their strength and manpower to intimidate the common folk into paying them taxes for protection and other stuff. They also manage products sold in the market, and even drugs, which are highly addictive substances that provoke exhilarating feelings of power and pleasure, but leave large sequela in the people that consume it," said Ervas.

"Oh, so they're total dicks I guess?" asked Anna.

"More or less," said Veronica.

"Are there more people like this?" asked Jason rather nervously.

"Yep, there are around four more organizations of the same size. The most surprising factor is their great connection with aristocrat houses, who purchase and sell these drugs and other items to them, creating a chain of profits made by the literal suffering of common folk… We'll put a stop to this as well in the meanwhile," said Ervas.

"Sounds good, when are we going to crack some skulls?" asked Veronica.

"Right about now, we'll infiltrate inside of the hideout of the Dark Tails, replace their leader and become the bosses of this organization," said Ervas.

"Sounds good!" said Veronica.

"Wait, right now?!" asked Jason.

"Yeah, and then we'll open the restaurant and sell burgers," said Ervas.

"Sounds like a plan," said Anna.

"I'm on it," said Kireina.

"Wait for a second, shouldn't we plan things ahead of a bit more?" asked Jason.

"The leader is as strong as a C-Rank Adventurer, there is nothing to fear, I have also memorized the routes, and Veronica's small metallic spider clones had already infiltrated inside," said Ervas.

"We'll teleport there through a graveyard and wreck them from the inside," said Veronica.

"Of course, we'll cover ourselves, so we are not recognized," said Ervas.

"What if some of them manage to escape?" asked Desephise.

"There won't be anyone that will escape," said Ervas rather filled with conviction.

"Y-You'll assault a criminal organization as big as the Dark Tails?!" asked Jose.

"Are you sure about this? It might… not end as you plan," said Bartholomew.

"You might be underestimating our strength," said Veronica.

"Perhaps they don't remember what happened yesterday because they fell unconscious," said Ervas.

"Anyways, we are going any time, so let's prepare some disguises… Here, I will make some cool masks and armor stuff!" said Veronica, beginning to create special 'disguises' within seconds through her amazing creation Skills.

"Wow! Can we join?" asked Acaracia.

"You will beat some evil people?" asked Mitiliph.

"I don't think it would be good if we joined… sounds dangerous, and we are pretty weak," said Berth.

"Don't worry, Bartholomew and Jose can take care of you, right?" asked Veronica.

"Yes, it doesn't seem like a hard task such as infiltrating a dangerous criminal organization," said Jose.

"I agree…" said Bartholomew.

"Wait, shouldn't we go register some of us as citizens before that?" asked Ismene.

"Don't worry, we can do this pretty swiftly," said Ervas.

"Alright, let's get to it," said Gaius.

"Doing such important things on the go… I guess that's how we are…" sighed Jason, preparing himself for battle.

It has already been two days since Balto and Dako disappeared, and the boss of the Dark Tails, a Black Wolf-kin Beast-man named Radugro seemed mildly annoyed.

The lackeys that were with Balto and Dako went running away instead of trying to help their companion, which frustrated him greatly…

But it was not as if they had run away without motives, like the monsters they came cross were said to be so strong that they suppressed Balto and Dako by himself grabbing them by the neck.

Radugro began to ponder what could have really happened there, and who were these people exactly…

However, as much as he thought about it, he was never someone that could think as wisely or plan too much, after all, he used his strength to get subordinates, and then used their strength to dominate a certain area of the Red-Light District.

Without strength he was nothing.

The only thing he could come out with was that these people might have been brought by enemy organizations to overtake him, and decided to kidnap two subordinates to extract info from.

Radugro had intimidated them and taught them to not spit any info very well, but in front of so many methods of torture, he could not help but believe that they might end up giving the info anyways, after all, Balto and Dako were not really that strong-willed, and even less brave.

Well, it was thanks to such natures that Radugro was able to suppress them and make them his subordinates… but that was it.

The large, almost two-meter-tall wolf-kin beast-man had an enormous and muscular physique, with long dark claws, furry black hair growing around his chest, shoulders, arms, and legs, and a long and crazy hair at his back, wearing black leather over his body, he truly resembled a thug boss.

He sat over a small throne made of the bones of the people he had killed, and looked more like a savage tribal boss than an actual thug boss…

Residing inside an underground dungeon structure created by aristocrats long ago inside an abandoned building within the Red-Light District, he made of such place his home and that of his subordinates.

He had nowhere to go, and did not have any family members either, he was born in the slums and developed his power as he grew up and fought for survival, the same could be said for his subordinates.

This was his only home, and he was willing to fight for it.

"If it is one of the other organizations that took Balto and Dako, we'll have to prepare for war… Good thing we had gathered a good amount of money by selling stuff. The connections with the aristocrats had served well… Investing some into better weapons and equipment should be my priority now… Hm, there might be bloodshed soon! Well, that is good, this place was getting dull and there has been too long of an awkward peace between the organizations. It's about time that we finally take over this place! I don't care if they extract info from them, I am going to fight them even if they come directly to us!" laughed Radugro, as he stood up and made his large black claws grow larger and more intimidating.

He had been born in such a place, he was used to fighting for survival, and he was more than willing to take out whoever tried to cross his path to his ambitions.

As Radugro laughed and ordered his close subordinates, the guards that stood outside of his room began to talk.

"The Boss seems to be decided…"

"Yeah, we'll most likely get into an organization war again,"

"Damn, there will be bloodshed…"

"Indeed, we should probably hide somewhere and wait for things to finish, we can join whoever wins,"

"Oh, that's smart!"

"Yeah, Radugro is strong but… if a lot of thugs come for us, he'll get killed anyway,"

"True, we better secure our lives and- Ah, there's a bug in your shoulder…"

"Eh?"

One of the subordinates glanced at his left shoulder, where a fist-sized black spider rested, it seemed more like some kind of sculpture made of metal than a spider, but it was actually moving.

"S-Shit! I hate spiders!" cried the subordinate, trying to throw it away.

However, suddenly, a wave of immense amounts of mana emerged from the spider, and the sight of the two subordinates changed in a split of a second.

Purple dirt came out of thin air, burying the two, as large, almost one-meter-tall graves emerged out of thin air as well, falling over the bodies of the two and crushing them into pieces with their weight!

Clash!

The other subordinates noticed the loud noises of the two guards dying agonizingly, glaring in shock as purple dirt and five graves appeared out of thin air over the paved floor made of bricks and rocks!

"W-What?"

"Huh?"

"Am I… dreaming?"

"Those guys just got crushed by… a freaking graveyard that came out of nowhere…"

"R-Run…!"

"Eh?"

"My detection never fails… Something is coming! Something big! Run!!!" cried one of the subordinates, running away as a sudden tremor took hold of the entire underground facility!

BOOM!

CLASH!

A gigantic carriage made of black metal emerged out of the graveyard, surprising everyone as it released incredibly loud noises!

A phantasmagoric, dark blue presence emerged from it, intimidating everyone that sensed it, making the weakest of the subordinates fall into the ground as if hopeless!

The immense pressure was too much, some even fell unconscious while others began to piss themselves on fear!

However, the voices of two people came from it.

"You killed them…" said Ervas.

"Oh! I actually crushed those guys… I didn't… intend to do that, my bad, my bad…" apologized Veronica.

"Well it doesn't matter, their souls are intact, we can do something about it later, let's get to it," said Ervas, as the doors of the giant black carriage opened, releasing a group of demi-humans and phantoms, wearing antique clothes similar to disguises, masks, and other things!

"W-Who is you?!" asked one of the subordinates.

"We are… err… The Black… The Black Order!" said Veronica's voice, representing her group!

"The Black Order? Seriously?" asked Ismene.

"Hey, I came out with that just right now!" said Veronica.
