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

Chapter 195 - A New Summoned Companion!

-----

The same night as Ervas and Veronica had discussed their next course of action, which included traveling towards the surrounding mountains of the Devil Forest and recruiting both Bear-kin and Harpy Tribes while also making some trips around the dungeons there, Ervas was immersed in a bizarre dream.

??

He glanced at his surroundings only to find an iridescent whiteness, it was almost blinding but because he simply had no physical eyes inside a dream, he could not be blinded.

"This white space… wait, this is my soul"

Ervas glanced around the whiteness, this was the hidden area of his soul where the void of his soul was 'stored'. After traveling through the endless whiteness for a bit, he finally found the large void within the whiteness, twisting space around it and revealing the scenery of a different plane from within, where a large stream of Mana flowed inside his soul from that different space.

He approached the void as he glanced through it, ignoring the stream of mana, and hearing the slight whispers of what had called him tonight.

"Tekeli-li… Takkeli…" muttered the cracking voice of a strange and bizarre entity from within the void.

"What? Hello?" asked Ervas, as the entity seemed to have fallen silent whenever he spoke.

However, just a few seconds afterward, an oozy, green-colored tentacle of protoplasmic mass emerged from within the plane connected to the void of his soul.

The tentacle tried to enter the void but seemed to be suppressed by a strange and invisible force.

"A new… friend…" muttered the entity, revealing countless eyes appearing and disappearing from within the humongous protoplasmic tentacle that released green rays of light everywhere.

"Let me in…" it muttered again, as its cracking and bizarre otherworldly voice resonated within Ervas hearing senses.

"Sorry, but it seems that something is stopping you from visiting me… Are you from another world, perhaps?" asked Ervas politely.

"Friend… friend… I give… friend" muttered the creature, separating a small piece of its greenish tentacle and then throwing it inside of Ervas void, the tiny creature was weak enough to partially ignore the invisible barrier, appearing right before Ervas and embracing him.

"Friend… Friend…" muttered the creature, hugging Ervas' ethereal body.

"Hello…? You don't talk too much, do you?" asked Ervas with a mild smile as he caressed the otherworldly, insanity-inducing creature.

"New friend…" muttered the creature.

"Okay, let us be friends, but you better behave… I think I will have to summon you first, so wait for a bit in here after I wake up, okay?" asked Ervas as the entity seemed to understand, partially.

"Friend… friend… friend… okay," it said.

"Good boy… Hm, the other two have not shown up, so perhaps this is a dream with only you and me? Does this mean that my Summon Skill is about to level up? If I remember correctly, the conditions are to strengthen the summoned creatures to summon more creatures, and Cthulhu and Nyarlathotep are pretty strong now…" muttered Ervas.

"I come… alone. Attracted… I was… for friend… new friend… new friend…" groaned the creature while twisting its tentacles ominously against Ervas' ethereal soul, its bright body exuded green lights around, but Ervas was not affected by such thing, as if he were equal to this otherworldly entity.

"It's nice to make friends and all, but you should tell me your name first," said Ervas.

"Name… name… no name… only… exist. Old ones… created me… for a purpose… yet I've found something… greater… for my own…" muttered the entity, coming with more words than Ervas had expected, surprising him.

"Greater…? Are you talking about me? Wait, so you were created? Who are the old ones?" asked Ervas.

"Old ones… cannot be named… friend… careful…" said the entity.

"Okay… I will be careful to not say their names nor mess with them. I am not interested in starting interdimensional strife's when I haven't resolved much back in my world… Anyways, I will see you in a bit" said Ervas, suddenly disappearing from within the white space, only leaving the creature within this place.

"Friend… I wait…" muttered the entity, resting until Ervas were to call him as he promised.

Ervas opened his eyes as he saw a small notification from the system.

Ding!

[The Level of the [Summoning: Level 2] Skill has increased!]

[You have acquired a third summoning slot!]

[You can summon for a new creature now!]

"I knew it… Time to summon a new friend…" said Ervas, stretching his arms and glancing through the window, realizing that the sun was shining brightly atop the sky, it was already morning and he has not woken up yet.

BOOM!

"Good morning, Ervas-sama!"

Suddenly, Lilith appeared inside of Ervas room while blasting the doors open, she wore a maid outfit while carrying a plate with recently made tea alongside bread, fruits, cheese, yogurt, meat, and many other types of good for Ervas breakfast.

Although it did not happen all the time, Lilith enjoyed bringing Ervas his breakfast every morning at nine am. She walked towards Ervas with a happy expression on her face as her scarlet eyes flashed with a hint of fascination.

"Ah, Lilith… you've come today for breakfast… thanks," said Ervas with a mild smile, he was still sleepy, and his hair was all messed up, but he seemed incredibly cute nonetheless, even more as he had his wolf ears out alongside his fluffy tail.

"Uwah~! Ervas-sama, you're so adorable today!" said Lilith, while leaving the breakfast atop a table and sitting near Ervas to hug him as a lovely mother would do.

"You don't have to hug me like this, but I appreciate your maternal affection," said Ervas while slowly separating himself from Lilith, glancing at Nyarlathotep and Cthulhu who had just woken up near him.

"Bibibilililili"

"Objbj…"

Nyarlathotep quickly changed into the shape of Lilith, creating the illusion of both exactly similar women next to each other.

"Oh? My lord, will you summon a new creature?" asked Lilith.

"That's right. Check this out" said Ervas as he conjured the Summon Skill, creating a small magic circle in the floor of the room, where the shadow of a creature quickly emerged from within, flashing with a green light.

Flash!

"Grooooooooo…"

An amorphous creature that seemed to be made entirely out of a green-colored fleshy slime where eyes constantly popped in and out of its protoplasmic body and oozy exterior appeared, jumping over Ervas as if he were to be his own father.

"Grooooooooooo…!"

Suddenly, it released a loud cry of seeming happiness, despite being so alien and strange that even Lilith, who had a high level in the mental corruption skill could not help but feel horrified for a few seconds, making her faint.

"Ouch, could you not cry like that? It actually hurt my ears… I should hide them" said Ervas, converting his wolf ears and tail into phantoms and then absorbing them inside his body.

"Groo…" apologized for the entity, seemingly not being able to talk like it did on Ervas dream

[You have summoned the [Rank 4 Amorphous Protoplasmic Otherworldly Spawn]!]

"What a name for a race…" muttered Ervas, as he quickly healed Lilith who had suddenly fainted over the creature's cry.

"Ah… did I faint?" she asked.

"Don't worry, it should maintain itself silent for now… It was just very excited, weren't you?" asked Ervas to the creature, as the entity lovely hugged him with its oozy and slimy body.

"I'll name you… Shoggoth, welcome abroad" said Ervas.

"Shooooggghhh…" muttered the creature, Shoggoth.

"Bililili!"

"Objbjbjb!"

The other two otherworldly creatures greeted Shoggoth as a new sibling and family member, hugging it with their slimy bodies, where Ervas was in the middle of it.

It might be a bit uncomfortable, but he was glad to have a new companion.
