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

Chapter 227 - [A Mountain Of War And Death] 12/?: The Electrifying Veronica And Ervas Job Change!

-----

"We just changed Jobs two days ago but it's already time to change again, we really do progress very quickly…" said Veronica.

??

"Well, it is a combination of a lot of factors, but this army of Undead was very big, so, understandably, we managed to reach max level in our Jobs. Even if the strongest Undead was only Rank 6, the number of constant Experience Points was rather ridiculous," said Ervas.

"I wonder if we could replicate this in the future. Maybe if we could extract the spells from the Necromancer or something… Ah, but we do not have true Death Attribute Magic… I believe that the Dungeon down there might be the one spawning so many Undead, but I am sure that it is by the influence of the Necromancer. After all, even dungeons don't spawn so many freaking monsters so fast…" said Veronica.

"Indeed… Have you tried assimilating the graveyards and the purple dirt we managed to secure?" asked Ervas.

"No, but it seems that it should be possible… though, what strange effects could it bring to me? Well, I am going to do it right now anyways…" said Veronica, as she took out a large pile of broken graveyards that still held great Death Attribute Mana essence, alongside a giant pile of purple dirt.

"Your ability to absorb material things and slowly assimilate their powers is amusing, I kind of envy you a bit… By the way, have you developed Electrify, Poison Secretion, and Fire Generation yet?" asked Ervas.

"Not yet, it is taking its time, but because the items that can produce it are part of my body, I should manage to obtain those Skills at some point…" said Veronica.

Ervas and Veronica were talking about Veronica's ability to assimilate items and merge them into herself. Since long ago that she had assimilated materials capable of the secretion of poison from the various insects of the Dungeon, alongside special bones, magic cores, and other materials that could generate electricity, wind, and even fire.

She had already developed her shapeshifting to ridiculous extents after having assimilated a Metal Slime, but she wanted to see if it could be possible for her to get such strange Skills. Veronica had already developed the ability to produce metallic threads as well, after having absorbed the metal threads of the Spider Queen from her Dungeon, so she was confident that she could one day get those other Skills.

"Actually, aside from these ones, I am absorbing these large plates and jaws, they're Pete's corpse parts that are fitting to be absorbed, his corpse also had large magic crystals that could produce electricity, so if I absorb some more, I might finally get the Electrify Skill!" said Veronica.

"If you ever get it, would you be able to replicate technology one day?" wondered Ervas.

"Perhaps… alright, let's hope for the best!" said Veronica, as she absorbed all of the materials and quickly added them all into her main armor only.

[The materials [Shattered Necromancer's Graves], [Necrotic Purple Dirt of Death Calling], [Armored Exoskeleton of Electricity Creation], [Voracious Jaws of Thunderstorms], [Lightning Magic Crystals] and the [Kelsus' Sinful Demonic Living Armor of Dark Storms] equipment have been synthesized into the [Kelsus' Furious Dark Thunderstorm Living Armor of Death] armor!]

[You gained +100 Defense, +100 Resistance, and +300 Magic!]

[You acquired the [Electrify: Level 1] and [Cursed Graveyard of the Dead Creation: Level 1] Skills!]

"What?!"

"Hm?"

Veronica glanced at the System notifications, realizing how much her Armory Skill has evolved through each level up to bring her such power… But she also assumed that the items she absorbed were of very high quality, making it finally possible for more Skills to be acquired through it.

The Skill she was most expectant for was Electrify, as she still believed that she would not get anything from the graves or the dirt… but surprisingly, she got something.

Ervas glanced as Veronica was held in disbelief over her newfound abilities, however, she quickly brought herself back to reality.

"This… I got Electrify…!" said Veronica.

"That's nice-"

"And I got something else too! This is… what kind of Skill…?!" asked Veronica, as she decided to inspect the newly acquired Skill 'Cursed Graveyard of the Dead Creation' to find more clues about this Skill, so she could explain it to Ervas properly.

[Cursed Graveyard of the Dead Creation: Level 1/10]

A Skill that holds the ability to create a graveyard over a piece of land, the dirt will turn purple as graves will grow from within, giving the ability to summon Undead that the user had previously-stored somewhere else.

By connecting two Cursed Graveyards, the summoning can be made as long as the caster is near the desired Cursed Graveyard where the caster desires for the Undead to show up.

In addition, the user's stats, and that of any Undead-type monster within the Cursed Graveyard will increase depending on the level of the Skill.

It is possible to move the Cursed Graveyard around by converting it into a Domain, but the amount of Mana required will increase tenfold.

[Electrify: Level 1/10]

A Skill that gives the user the ability to produce electricity from any area of its body.

The production of electricity cost Mana and depending on the level of speed, strength, impact, and thickness of the lightning, the required Mana cost may vary.

The overall capacity of the electricity within this Skill will increase depending on the Skill Level, alongside what the user is capable of.

"This is… is this the power those little Necromancer Kids held?!" wondered Veronica, as she decided to explain everything slowly for Ervas to understand things well.

"So… That Skill lets you create something like 'spawn points' for the Undead? That must be how those Necromancers operated… And you can even carry it around you if you spend enough Mana, amazing," said Ervas.

"In addition, my power and that of any Undead-type will increase while being around this Cursed Graveyard…" said Veronica.

"And to top it all, you can now create electricity… Amazing! Fitting of my other half," said Ervas.

"Indeed, now, I just have to slowly train these two out to make them stronger assets for our strength. Specially Electrify, if I were to be able to replicate magic engines or artifacts through it and my metallic body, I could be capable of modifying my body and become… a mech!" said Veronica.

"A mech?" asked Ervas.

"Yes… Don't you see the potential, Ervas?! We just need to develop Magic Technology in this world… and I will become… a giant mech!" said Veronica.

"Impressive, I would have never thought about something like that, I suppose…" said Ervas.

"And then, I can make mechs for everyone!" said Veronica.

"I see…"

"And through giant mech suits, we'll beat Bestellen to a pulp!" said Veronica, her crimson eyes shining brightly. Her dream right now was quite childish, but her overly expressive personality made her seem like this. Despite that, her intentions were purely for the strengthening of everyone.

"I can't… Imagine that for now, but I do believe that you might one day reach that point, like that Web Novel we once read about a Nanomancer…" said Ervas.

"Oh! You are right… even nanobots! Wait, what if I just create millions of tiny Clones to use as Nanobots?!" asked Veronica.

"That would be certainly an arduous task," said Ervas.

"But a worthwhile one!" said Veronica.

"Veronica, I think you're a bit too overly excited, calm down…" said Ervas.

After a few minutes of calming down Veronica, the two finally set into changing Jobs for tonight.

Ervas was thinking about acquiring a job that could make him a bit better at healing other souls, and perhaps dispel curses, such as the so-called 'divine protection', that the young Necromancers held from their lord.

Glancing at his available Job Options, Ervas found a few new additions to the list.

[Jobs Available]

[Gray Wizard], [Spiritual Alchemist], [Mana Crafter], [Life Demon Druid], [Hollow Demon General], [Artisan: Phantasmal Living Equipment], [Living and Undead Progenitor], [Vicious Bloodsucking Phantasmal Demon], [Malevolent Inner Skeleton Manipulator], [Demon Beast King], [Soul Healer], [Spiritual No-Life Doctor], [Aberrant Abyssal Mind Flayer], [Tartarus Phantasmal Warrior], [Elysium Bringer], [Gods Nemesis], [Vampiric Werewolf Phantasmal Prince], [Bloodline Awakener], [Anir's Fragment User] (New!), [Phantom Demon of a Myriad Selves] (New!)

"Two new Jobs…" thought Ervas, as he glanced at both Jobs descriptions through Appraisal.

The first new Job, named 'Anir's Fragment User', seemed to strengthen the Skills related to the use of Anir's and to an extent, Kelsus' Fragments. It also seemed to strengthen his ability to fuse his soul with Veronica and was quite an 'advanced' Job.

Meanwhile, the second new Job, named 'Phantom Demon of Myriad Selves', seemed to have recently been generated when he acquired the Phantom Clone Skill, and it goes around that Skill in specific, giving him the ability to grow stronger through the creation of Phantom Clones, while also giving them the ability to draw more of the original body (Ervas) power.

"Both are nice, but my next job is a necessity, so I can't choose anything other than it," said Ervas, choosing his new Job Change.

Ding!

[You changed Jobs to [Soul Healer]!]

[You acquired the [Soul Repair: Level 1] Skill!]

[The Levels of the [Soul Repair: Level 1], [Healing Touch; Level 3], [Life and Death Cycle: Level 1], [Pharmacist; Level 3], and [Surgery; Level 2] Skills have increased!]

"Soul Repair… This might work…" thought Ervas, glancing at his hands as a glistering golden light was emanated from them.
