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

Chapter 162 - [War Against A God] 1/? Invasion!

-----

The High Gazer Emperor, a Rank 10 monster created by Oggoth, which was originally a Rank 8 High Gazer King, dwelled within the depths of Oggoth's dungeon, the former shrine where this Demon God is sealed.

??

Through the ingestion of Anir and Kelsus Fragments, which Oggoth possessed after having remained with the ones that he acquired after the Demon God-King was destroyed, such a powerful monster received a strange boost in power, provoking a sudden mutation on its whole being and bringing it into a new form.

Having Ranked to a Rank 9 Giant High Gazer King and then a Rank 10 High Gazer Emperor, this Gazer had increased its strength exponentially, to levels that not even Ervas and Veronica had reached… yet.

Although, thanks to their Job Changes, it was possible for them to put on a fight against it and possibly pull a victory if they were to use all of their abilities with enough coordination.

This creature, however, was not just a simple servant of Oggoth… not anymore.

After having been forced to ingest the pieces of flesh and organs produced by the fragments of the Great Gods that created Kritias, Anir's Bone Marrow, and Kelsus' Dark Scales, the creature underwent two mutations while being below Oggoth's Divine Power influence and blessing.

Digesting the bone marrow and scales of the former Great Gods, existences so big and powerful, capable of creating an entire world after their deaths, made this monster not only underwent large mutations and a boost on its strength but also its intelligence… and through this, it was well aware of its current situation.

"Locked in this cage of a dungeon below the authority of a wicked Demon God… What kind of eerie destiny could this be?" wondered the High Gazer Emperor, who was, in fact, a female, and was named Krakenusa by Oggoth.

"My whole existence seems to be fixated in the production of my brethren, but I myself was also created through such a method by my true father, Oggoth. After digesting the flesh and scales of the progenitors of existence, my mind has been enlightened about the truth of the world, and sapience and common sense blossomed within my young mind naturally through this act… yet I cannot help but think that this is terribly awful" it thought.

Krakenusa had developed a genius mind, but through this intelligence came the fear of existing, about her future and about the truth of this world… which she has been revealed after devouring the flesh and scales of the progenitors of Kritias.

But what could be the truth about the world?

Kritias' entire existence was but a creation from two corpses, yet these two corpses somehow were still alive, like billions, trillions of life forms, all across Kritias. All the living beings… and dead beings were part of these gods.

It could be said that this was an essential truth about the world, everyone was part of the two gods, without any exception.

"To make things worse, my father has dared to enrage a group of resilient warriors that are capable of growing in strength at a ridiculous pace… Just what is he thinking in his senile mind? He has really gone stupid… Being sealed for so long might have affected his thought process and brain" thought Krakenusa.

Krakenusa did not desire to fight Ervas and Veronica, she did not even want any conflict. She just desired to be freed from Oggoth's authority over her and to see the rest of the creation by her own giant eye.

Though, because she was always below Oggoth's control due to sharing the same bloodline and possessing his blessing, she could only dream.

Krakenusa moved her multiple and fleshy tentacles, as various of them opened wide, laying large, white-colored eggs with the size of cars, each one falling into the ground and cracking immediately, revealing grotesque creatures from within, with the body of an eye covered in scales and tentacles, High Gazer.

"My children, endlessly created for the whole purpose of serving as shields and soldiers, I pity you more than anything, more than me, even… Knowing that many of you will die through this war fills me with a deep depression. Yet, I cannot do anything but think and think, the only thing that it is free within me is my own consciousness, as the entire control of my whole being has been restricted by my foolish father…" thought Krakenusa, lamenting the lack of control over her own body.

Krakenusa was born and raised inside this dungeon, and she had only known about it ever since. She lacked any other memories whatsoever… as she simply never experienced anything else.

However, thanks to her newfound intelligence, greater than any Gazer ever created by Oggoth, she felt deep sadness by not being able to know about the outside world and its wonders.

She really wanted to see more of what life had to offer other than to just dying whenever Veronica and Ervas were to appear… but because such destiny seemed impossible to achieve, she could only drown herself in the deep contemplation of her pitiful existence and that of her endless supply of children.

Just as another day seemed to go by without anything interesting happening other than her own body automatically producing more eggs and offspring, the ground around the dungeon began to shake furiously.

"What could this be…? An earthquake, perhaps?" she wondered.

And along with the sudden tremor, the sudden awake of Oggoth was provoked.

"Hmmgh?! What is going on?! What?! What are these things… How could I not detect them?!" Oggoth lamented as he felt the presence of hundreds of creatures emerging from within the underground and rushing directly towards his dungeon… and as they did, a new presence appeared seemingly out of thin air.

"Could this be the last day of my life? I cannot wait but to die, as I might find some solace in such a thing…" thought Krakenusa.

"Krakenusa, send the army, quick! We have not created enough… and the army of Orcs and other monsters outside was already wiped out?! T-This is… Why have they dared come here? Don't they know that I am a God? That I can simply devour their minds through my powers? Fools! Come and be eaten then!" roared Oggoth in anger, his mind was too old and his daughter, Krakenusa, was right about him being senile. Oggoth had long lost any sanity left on him after being sealed for so long.

"Yes, father," said Krakenusa, with an almost automatic voice, her entire being was controlled by Oggoth's authority, she could only nod and obey.

Meanwhile, outside of Oggoth's lair, hundreds of giant spiders made out of dark metallic materials emerged from the underground caves that connected Oggoth's lair with the Igni Kingdom.

Each one of them was over three meters in height, but when looked at carefully, one would notice that they were, in fact, created by many, smaller metallic spiders stuck together almost perfectly.

And from within each of these spiders, there were small compartments where large groups of people that should not even be capable of fitting inside emerged, warriors of all shapes and sizes, from four different races united together for a sole purpose, the subjugation of Oggoth once and for all!

Around fifty Orcs, Lizardmen, Goblin, and Kobolds received them with barely any weapon at hand, immediately getting slaughtered by the wonderful teamwork of the groups, which kept emerging from the spiders one after another in packs of five each, as time went on, there were now close to a hundred fighters, all equipped with dark armor and wielding dark weapons.

And leading the group, Ervas and Veronica's main body charged inside of Oggoth's lair, meeting dozens of High Gazers at once.

"Telekinetic Cannon"

"Abyssal Claws! Fear Bullets!

Cannons of transparent telekinetic energy, claw-shaped phantasmagoric shadows, and bullets that induced fear the moment they touched anything were fired by the pair, immobilizing, or instantly killing the dense group of one-eyed monsters one after another, making the way for the army to advance behind them.

"Knock, knock! Oggoth, we are here! We deeply apologize for getting late in the party!" said Veronica with a cynical tone in her voice.

"Be more serious, Veronica…" said Ervas.

And as if easily taunted by Veronica's checky voice, Oggoth's voice resonated from within the giant dungeon.

"You fools! You have just entered my domain! Prepare to die and to become nourishment for my children!"
