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

Chapter 308 - [War Against Humans] 3/?: Intense Fight! Void Against Light!

-----

"Demon-Slaying Heavenly Purification Cannon!"

??

Graham laughed, releasing the powerful spell he has been preparing this whole time through the entire battle, as a cannon of light and life showered Ervas entire body.

Ervas gnashed his teeth, as he conjured his strongest barrier, while even putting his soul into the combination!

CLASH!

The cannon of light, however, easily broke through his cannon, as the light seeped into his entire being, as if he were slowly being disintegrated.

"I am… already losing?!"

"No… I have not prepared this long… to die here…!

"I… I have been faltering, I cannot believe it… This whole time, I have been fighting with fear… The fear that these people inflicted on me in my previous life…"

"The fear of my traumas… this man… I… I cannot falter here…! I must avenge… my people!"

FLASH!

Suddenly, the cannon of light faltered, as it was redirected elsewhere, exploding in midair.

BOOM!

And through the magic smoke, an enormous being emerged, resembling a giant dragon made of bones.

Within its center, Ervas was covered in Anir's bone marrow, as if he were the core of this giant creature.

"Oh?! OOOOH?! Yes… you can't possibly lose so easily, can't you?! Amazing… This power…! Yes, maybe we could finally fight to the death?!" laughed Graham, running towards Ervas like a meteor of light, clashing against his bony body into a loud explosion and then beginning to smack the living hell out of the bone dragon with his staff!

BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!

"Bone Spear Kick!"

CLASH!

However, Ervas answered in time, using the enormous feet of the bone dragon, and shaping it as a gigantic spear of bones, clashing against Graham and sending him far away through the skies.

Ervas flapped his bony and phantasmal wings, rushing towards Graham as the dragon's mouth opened!

Boom!

A massive breath of red fire and blue flames emerged, burning through Graham's entire body as the pope began to… cry in pain!

"NNNGGUUUOOOHHH…!"

FLASH!

Once more, Graham used his Magic Release to block Ervas attack, however, Ervas was answering at even a faster speed!

"Bone Purgatory!"

FLASH!

Suddenly, Ervas entire body restructured itself! All of the bones shaped themselves as sharp blades, axes, and spears, raining over Graham from all sides!

Flash! Flash! Flash!

"W-What…!?"

"And there's more. Void Attribute Magic, Warp!"

Ervas then disappeared, right before Graham could release his own barrage of light blades towards his position, however, the bone weapons kept raining over him, breaking through his defenses and slowly slicing his entire superhuman body!

Slash! Slash! Slash!

"Where did he go- HUH!?"

Graham glared right above him, as his eyes and Ervas' met once more!

"Here, have this, Nether Flame Inferno!" said Ervas, as he conjured a spell of his own, which employed his Void King Magic, combining it with Anir's Spiritual Blue Flames!

FLASH!

An inferno of blue flames covered Graham while his shields were breaking constantly, freezing his skin, and leaving an outer layer of ice all around him!

"Unnghh…! T-This power… Anir's Fragments?! This demon… Has one?!" wondered Graham, he couldn't tell through Anir's Bone Marrow, but through Anir's Spiritual Blue Flames, the special presence of these mystical fragments became very clear to the old Battle Pope.

He smiled.

Crack, crack!

The outer icy layer around him began to crack, as Graham slowly started to shine brightly, it was as if he had no end to his power!

Ervas could not help but feel like he was truly undergoing a challenge, one that would be even greater than fighting Oggoth or even the Necromancer!

"I have to defeat him… At all cost," thought Ervas, as he began to employ all of his minds into the task, combining his Level 1 Void Attribute Magic with his Void King Magic!

"Although I cannot use pure Void Magic yet as the level is too low, as long as I fuse it with my awakened No Attribute Magic… I should be able to do something," he thought, as he used Warp once more, a short-range Teleportation Spell that could let him teleport a short distance of a maximum of 10 meters.

"Where are you going, Demon King?!" roared Graham, breaking through the ice and flying towards Ervas with his immense prowess and resiliency!

FLASH!

"Demonic Purge!" roared Graham unleashing a large sphere of light towards Ervas, which exploded within seconds, impacting the boy with a loud wave of light and life magic!

BOOM!

However, Graham noticed that something seemed… odd!

"Huh?!"

In front of Ervas, a large hole into space appeared, which had absorbed the entire attack.

"Void Absorption…" said Ervas, as the hole quickly closed itself.

"Is that… Spatial Magic?!" asked Graham.

"Not really," said Ervas, using Warp once more, appearing right behind the pope, and covering his entire arm with a gigantic claw of bone and scales, clashing against Graham's staff!

CLASH!

"Gahahah! You fool! You came near me!" roared Graham, extending his light aura towards Ervas, and shaping it as a hand!

"Anir's Hands!" he said, as enormous hands suddenly flew towards Ervas, trying to smack him like an ant!

"Spectral Claws! Bone Claw! Bone Purgatory!"

Ervas released techniques of his own, generating claws of spectral gray color, and fighting against the gigantic light hands, while also releasing several claws made of bone towards Graham who only smacked them with his staff and kept advancing near Ervas, he really wanted to grab the boy's neck to crush it like a chicken!

The bone blades fell over his body, slicing it once more as his entire body released streams of blood everywhere, although the wounds healed, the blood he lost was not coming back!

And Ervas used this opportunity to drink all this blood to nourish his stamina and Mana, provoking the Pope, as he simply smiled crazily and laughed.

Below the skies where this battle unfolded, the soldiers were being crushed one after another, as those that were still hanging on their lives glanced at Graham and Ervas fight.

They simply could not believe that such a young boy was giving Graham such a hard time!

However, Ervas allies were also in disbelief over Graham's prowess, many of them desired to come to the boy's rescue, but Veronica stopped them, knowing that they were not strong enough to even put a dent on the battle pope, they would only become Ervas' burden.

"Graham-sama… fight! Defeat that Demon!"

"You can do this, Graham-sama!"

"Fight!"

Graham heard the cheers of his subordinates, as he felt like he was being blessed by his peers, he could not possibly lose now!

Ervas then noticed through Appraisal that Graham's stats, which all were on an average of 20000 with his magic at 40000 began to increase even more!

"This is… Your Unique Skill, Heart of Gold… is it?" asked Ervas, noticing through Appraisal the Unique Skill of Graham…!

"That's right! This is the Skill I was blessed with since very young! All those that cheer me and believe in me will grant me even more strength! This is the true power of Bestellen, this is his blessing, his power! The power of our beliefs can destroy any challenge and-"

Flash!

Ervas used this opportunity to strike down Graham as he spoke like a maniac, using Warp and appearing right behind him, and generating a giant bone dragon head right above him, which unleashed yet another breath cannon of red and blue flames!

BOOM!

"Unnnggoooohhhh! That's nothingggggg…!" laughed Graham, as he seemed to break through the flames themselves, like a titan whose body could simply not be taken down!

Ervas felt surprised over Graham's incredible resiliency, noticing that his stats were increasing even more as he fought and resisted!

Ervas glanced down below and noticed that even Graham's subordinates, who were all expert Battle Popes, were as strong as B-Rank Adventurers, putting a great fight to his strongest subordinates and friends.

Although they were dying, they were doing so at a slower pace than the rest, and through the help of Albert and his knights, alongside the Wizards, they were still resisting.

Veronica's main body fought against Albert, as she monitored the battlefield and kept an eye on Ervas at all times.

Graham laughed, flying towards Ervas, and releasing a powerful attack with his holy staff, which Ervas defended against by conjuring Void Absorption on top of his usual barriers, as most of the impact was absorbed by the void, but not completely!

CLASH!

Ervas was sent flying through the sky as he quickly multiplied himself, generating many Phantom Clones and sending them towards Graham as he received them with open arms, smacking them and making them disappear with utmost ease.

"More… I have to…" muttered Ervas, as he began to combine his Void Attribute Magic, Psychokinesis, and Void King Magic all into one single spell!

His mind was rushing with ideas and thoughts, barely hanging on it with everything he had as he unleashed a storm of phantasmal claws and bones against Graham's steady onslaught.

However, as Graham grew in power through his Unique Skill, he approached more and more towards Ervas, smiling maliciously as his eyes flashed with a golden fire!

"Anir's Palm!" he said, using his Light Aura to create a giant humanoid palm, hitting Ervas directly!

Void Absorption and other barriers offset some of the damage, as Ervas healed his broken bones and torn off flesh as much as he could!

"Flash!"

However, Graham suddenly conjured a Spell that he had never shown up until now, flying through the sky like a literal flash of light, reaching Ervas at an almost teleport-like speed!

Ervas released a wave of all his power towards Graham, but Graham took it all with him, smiling maliciously and laughing!

"This is it, Demon King! Finally! You shall die!" he roared, as his staff grew in size and moved downwards towards Ervas position!

"Ginnungagap," said Ervas.

"Hmm?!" muttered Graham, as the world around him suddenly changed!
