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

-----

Slash! Slash! Slash! Slash!

Ervas' bone storm made of sharp blade bones began to break through Mason's gravitational barriers, like an endless rain of powerful slashing attacks, some finally managed to slip through his defenses, beginning to slash through his flesh and even pierce it!

The bones were so fast that Mason was not able to properly detect them in time and he was showered in attacks!

"MASON!!!" cried Lucas desperately, using his Ability to his very limits and generating several Artificial Spirits, using a Life Spirit to heal Mason's wounds, while the others generated elemental attacks and barriers to defend against Ervas bones!

"Please, Ervas, there could be another… way!" cried Lucas.

Ervas glanced at Lucas with indifference.

"You seem to be honest… Don't worry, Veronica will take good care of your soul. We won't eat you," said Ervas, intensifying the power of his bones as they kept emerging from his body!

"Eh?!"

Lucas was simply told that he was going to get killed anyway, but that his soul wouldn't get killed. And that, somehow, was a good thing!

To Ervas, not eating Lucas's soul was a good thing, in fact, it was a showcase of friendliness, keeping him as a ghost that could serve Veronica was a pretty good deal instead of getting his soul eaten away.

"I told you it was useless to… reason with them!" said Mason, quickly gaining back some of his strength as his wounds healed back thanks to Lucas Artificial Life Attribute Spirit, which quickly faded away after overusing its powers.

Lucas continued to create Artificial Spirits, which quickly died not long after, giants made of flames, large floating knights made of ice, wolves made of winds and thunder, large golems made of stone, and more kept defending them against Ervas bones, but Lucas was already getting his Mana into the lowest levels possible.

Ervas who was testing Lucas's powers was getting more and more surprised over his ability to create Artificial Spirits, which could come in very handy in the future.

However, testing was over, and he immediately changes the trajectory of the bones, combining them into larger, separated groups, and forming giant claws with them, slashing through Lucas's last Artificial Spirits as if they were nothing but ragdolls before him.

SLASH! CLASH!

Ervas giant masses of bones shaped as claws slashed through Lucas Artificial Spirits, as they quickly flew towards him to crush him into the ground like an Ant!

Lucas was already appraised by Ervas, and he was not that strong, although he was Rank 7 and had around 10 Jobs, his Stats were on the lower side compared to someone like Graham Gold, and his Skills were nowhere as high leveled either.

Alongside this, he held a small and delicate frame, being a young elf male. Perhaps if he were a Rank 7 monster big enough… he might be able to resist for a few more seconds, maybe live a single slash, but as of now, he was simply waiting to get killed.

Ervas mercilessly moved the bone claws towards Mason and Lucas simultaneously, aiming to crush them both while they were as weakened as possible.

However, Mason quickly stood up and unleashed an enormous wave of gravitational forces while screaming like a madman, making Ervas eyebrows raise a bit.

BOOOM!

The bones were suddenly crushed into dust by the powerful gravitational forces unleashed by Mason desperately, as even Ervas was pushed back a bit.

"Legion, Alraune, Grakgna…" said Ervas a second after, completely ignoring that Mason was unleashing an even bigger attack against him right about now.

"Yes, my lord! Is it finally time to fight?"

Suddenly, a mass of twisting tentacles and eyes made of the phantom, the enormous Legion Ghost, Legion, emerged at the side of his master. He seemed eager to fight but Ervas had not requested his help yet. Mostly because Legion was often too crazy when fighting and would end up eating too many innocent Dead Spirits around, assimilating them into his body without their consent, so he had to keep him in check quite often.

"Oooooooohh…"

Afterward, a mass of many green-colored plants, seaweed, and fungus and shrooms emerged, barely having some kind of form that wasn't just a mass of this phantom flora, having two long vine-like arms and two glowing crimson eyes that resembled spherical lights of red color that floated within the middle of the darkness within the mass of flora, resembling a hole, this was no one else than Alraune, a special Ghost born from the souls of many plants and mushrooms.

"Been a while since I had some actual action…"

And lastly, a majestic, turtle-like Earth Dragon emerged at Ervas side, however, at closer inspection he was made entirely out of golden-brown ethereal phantom, but still looked as intimidating and powerful as an actual Earth Dragon, he was the former Boss of the Mountain Labyrinth, the Earth Dragon Grakgna.

"Legion, Grand Spatial Lock. Alraune, Phantasmal Vine Tentacles. Grakgna, Deathly Tremor," said Ervas nonchalantly, as he conjured three different Dead Spirit Magic Spells consecutively by using Legion, Alraune, and Grakgna's capabilities!

"Yes, my looord!" said Legion while laughing eerily, as he suddenly turned into pure phantom and magic and became an entire spell itself by Ervas Dead Spirit Magic!

"Nngh?!" groaned Mason.

"Aghh…! What is this?!" asked Lucas in confusion.

Legion quickly conjured with Ervas the powerful and improved version of the Spatial Lock Spell, a Spell he had used against Oggoth months ago to keep the Demon God's body in a single space!

However, it was now improved tenfold, and its effectiveness and power now matched that of the current Ervas and his ridiculous amounts of the Magic stat.

Just after ten seconds of having called Legion, Mason and Lucas felt locked on space itself!

It was as if space was pressing over their bodies, without giving them the ability to move a single itch!

Mason was quickly cut from his charge as he began to manipulate the formless powers of his gravity to defend himself and Lucas from what was coming a second after!

Suddenly, gigantic, green-colored phantasmal vines emerged from the ground like vicious tentacles, attacking Mason and Lucas from all sides, and destroying their barriers one by one!

And then, right after, the entire ground began to tremble as if it were a tremendous tremor, causing large amounts of damage to the two superhumans!

Mason and Lucas were trying their best to fight back, but Ervas might be overwhelming!

He was being overly cautious against them, but to them, it seemed as if he was just toying with them to an extent! Their concept of cautiousness was so bad that they thought that someone careful was actually just playing around with them instead of trying to analyze and see what they were truly capable of. Unlike Veronica, Ervas was very coolheaded, so this was the obvious course of action than charging right against his enemies like crazed berserk.

"Nnnnnggaaaaagghh…! Youuuuuu…! YOU MONSTEEEER!" roared Mason, as the sudden gravitational forces within him detonated, unleashing a tremendous explosive wave that not only impacted Ervas attacks and destroyed them but anything around 50 meters was wiped out of Mason's sight, except Lucas who was being protected by Mason's barrier!

BOOOOM!!!

Ervas quickly warped away from such a deadly attack, while covering himself on armor of hardened bones coated with materialized Void Form Phantom, resembling a young bone knight.

"Just as I thought, he had something up his sleeve…" thought Ervas, as Mason's mind began to explode with the thoughts of survival and anger, his Cheat Ability, much like Natalia, was actually awakening within these harsh conditions of life or death!
