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

Chapter 187 - Aqua’s Amazing Growth And Potential

-----

Two days after Ervas found out happiness in a burger and his family, a large mass of liquid that surpassed ten meters of height was standing near a large lake in the middle of the Devil Forest, a bit nearby the Igni Kingdom.

??

"Gubooo… Do I really just drink it all, mommy Veronica?" asked the mass of water with a girlish voice, it was Aqua, the former Rank 1 Blue Slime that Veronica tamed in the first dungeon that she explored and the one where she was born.

"Of course, Aqua, didn't you tell me that you could strengthen yourself by drinking tons of water? We need to try that out, as water produced by magic didn't seem to work, you need to drink naturally produced one, it seems" said Veronica.

"Don't be shy, Aqua-chan, drink it all, we already have tons of water in the Igni Kingdom, and you could create a flood with your magic if you ever wanted" said Shade at Veronica's side.

"Gubooo… okay then, but don't complain if I make a mess!" said Aqua, as she extended her body all around the lake as if she had become an enormous semi-transparent blanket made out of bluish water.

Enormous slimy tentacles then inserted themselves in the lake as she began to voraciously drink the entire lake as if nothing, the fishes inside went right inside her stomach as well as most of the algae, and literally anything else.

"Glup… gulp… gulp…"

As Aqua drank more, her body grew bigger as well, almost reaching thirty meters now, and it kept expanding.

"This… isn't it getting out of hand?" asked Ozgeth, emerging from within the shadows below Veronica.

"No, don't worry. Let the girl has her meal" said Veronica.

"She's quite thirsty since her evolution," said Shade.

"Becoming Rank 8 is a big achievement, so letting her have this feast is her well-deserved price," said Veronica.

"Glup…! Haah! I am done! Thanks for the meal! It was nice! And I feel very guuud!" said Aqua, as she talked, her voice echoed across the entirety of the Devil Forest, her body had grown atop the treetop as she resembled a living lake now, her body size now reaching forty meters of height with a lot of her body spread over many trees.

"Aqua, how do you feel in strength and all of that?" asked Veronica.

"I feel… Very strong, gubooo! I think my power increased at least by half. Though I am not sure how long it might last… As the water will naturally be digested and I will go back to my original size" said Aqua, she was the one who knew the best about her own capabilities after all.

"I see… and now that you've become an Ocean Slime just as we once dreamed of, I wonder if you could… drink a part of the ocean?" wondered Veronica.

"Eeeh? Maybe! I need to level up the skills that let me do that… and they leveled a bit! But I gotta drink more masses of water, mommy Veronica" said Aqua as she bounced around with her enormous body, creating small tremors across the forest.

"You're still considering making her drink the ocean, Veronica?!" asked Shade in disbelief.

"Indeed! What weapon could be the best out there than an enormous mass of water that covers the entire world? If we could weaponize that through Aqua-chan help… we might even be capable of intimidating the Bright Gods" said Veronica with a malicious smile.

"Such a scheming master! This is why I am so loyal to lady Veronica, she never ceases to fascinate me" said Ozgeth with a smile on his phantasmal body.

Aqua did not seem to mind either, setting such a thing as her ultimate goal.

"Sure mommy, if I can help with it, I'll drink the ocean! I can't wait to see it one day!" said Aqua with a happy expression.

"She really does want to drink it! See, Shade? Your concern is not needed!" said Ozgeth with a triumphant smile.

"I don't think it's safe for her to want that, you know?" asked Shade.

"It's fine, it's fine, guboo! I want to drink it all, I will become the ocean and protect the Kingdom of Igni, I will protect Ervas, Ismene and all the nice people!" said Aqua, filled with bravery in her heart, as she showed the countless fishes and other living organism living inside her stomach.

"Strange, are they not being digested?" asked Veronica.

"Huh? I think they're comfortable, but I might choose to eat them separately if I want to, so I just let them live until I need to eat them" said Aqua.

"What?! That's… then you can even keep an environment inside of your tummy, Aqua?!" asked Shade.

"That's incredible, Aqua-sama!" said Ozgeth.

"I think this is getting way out of hand…" muttered Shade.

"Out of hand? It's fantastic! That means that Aqua can even keep fresh fish, shellfish, and algae inside her stomach for all citizens to eat at any time! It is better than any nearby lake or river then, like a giant refrigerator of seafood (although they're not from saltwater)" said Veronica.

"Yes, guboo! I will share with everyone! Fish for everyone!" said Aqua, the fish inside of her seemed incredibly calm and even held some kind of fascination over her similar to undead with Ervas and Veronica.

"Those fishes don't seem healthy… what's with their eyes? They're glancing right into Aqua!" said Shade.

"That's because Aqua has the Water Attribute Charm, the skill she learned after evolving!" said Veronica.

Water Attribute Charm was a special skill that Aqua acquired after evolving into an Ocean Water Slime Princess, and through it, she was able to charm any creature or being related with water, making them often instantly into allies and making them cooperate happily with whatever she wanted, such as telling the fish to dance or swim in circles inside of her if she wanted to ask them to do so.

"She could even charm sea monsters in the future! Aqua has really become an admirable fighter now, who can even match her?" asked Veronica proudly of her daughter.

"Indeed… she has become way too strong, this is outstanding already… But I am glad that she had become a fine woman" said Shade.

"Fish! Fish! We'll give fish to everyone!" said Aqua.

"But I wonder why she became a Princess though?" asked Ozgeth.

"That is… a Mystery…" said Veronica.

"Maybe because she is so cute?" asked Shade.

"I don't think that's how it works…" muttered Ozgeth.

"Maybe because I consider her my daughter, and I am the princess of Igni? So she is like the princess princess" said Veronica.

"I don't think that's how it works either, lady Veronica…" muttered Ozgeth once again.

"Then… what could it be?" wondered Veronica, as she glanced at Aqua making the hundreds of fish inside of her dance around as if it were a show resembling an animated movie about a mermaid from Earth.
