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

Chapter 327 - Kosmos: Zeus Rage!

-----

Nyx, the Goddess of the Night of the World of Kosmos extended her arms to her people, as she expanded her Divine Aura, creating a small domain to maintain her existence on the surface.

??

She had recently just done something incredibly bold, something that the other Gods watching her and even her people, the ones that lived within the Nation of Night did not expect!

"Everyone! Thanks for waiting for my descent, I have brought you the one that shall represent me and this entire Nation, the Champion that will lead this nation to the future we desire! She shall join other Champions and Humans, and defeat the threat of the Dungeons, she's Veronica!" said Nyx, pointing at the shy Veronica, who slightly waved her hand.

"Eh?"

"Cham… pion?"

"This woman that we don't even know about?!"

"Nyx-sama, what are you even thinking?!"

The people of the Nation of Night seemed confused… and some even began to get a bit angry at their own Goddess!

It was obvious that they would feel like that!

How would you feel if your Goddess, the one you trust so much suddenly brought a complete stranger and made it her Champion, representing the entire Nation across the entire world?

They were frustrated and completely confused about their Goddess, who they believed was wise, and her decision that went against the people's beliefs and thoughts!

"Sigh… Nyx, I told you that this wouldn't work!" said Veronica.

"Fufu, let me convince my people," said Nyx, she was still rather confident about this idea, as she glanced at the sky, where the other Gods were all glancing at her in surprise!

Zeus alongside other Gods such as Ares, Aphrodite, Hermes, Athena, Apollo, and Hephaestus glanced down below, most of them in complete shock!

"This… What is Nyx thinking?! Who is that being? I am sure that it is not even a Human! What is that? Some kind of ghost?" asked Aphrodite, his muscular yet slim body was covered in flowers and his face was very feminine yet masculine, he was the God of Beauty and Sex.

"Nyx has always been rather strange! Well, she is one of the oldest Goddesses and not even part of the family… Maybe Hades is close to her, but for us, she might as well be a stranger!" said Ares furiously, he resembled a gigantic bodybuilder, with long blonde hair and crimson eyes blazing with rage, he wore Spartan Armor and had a large chin.

"She really did go a bit far… She has been laying low since the Gigantomachia… I always thought of her as a neutral Goddess, but maybe this event has made her go insane," said Hermes, he resembled a youthful and slender man with long black hair and golden eyes, wearing a suit that resembled a butler outfit.

"Amongst all the knowledge I have gathered and the wisdom I possess, I can't find a good reason why would Nyx choose this being as her Champion, even more now, seeing as it is some kind of Ghost," said Athena, she was a tall and stoic woman, with beautiful features and a slender body, long blue hair, and shiny golden eyes, she had a small howl resting at her shoulder.

"W-What is wrong with her…" muttered Apollo, a beautiful young woman with wide hips and a large pair of breasts, her long and shiny hair shined as bright as the light, and her aquamarine eyes seemed profound and charming.

"I told you! She had gone nuts, completely nuts!" laughed Hephaestus, a beautiful and muscular woman, with red skin and fiery crimson eyes, her red hair waved around as she laughed he lungs out.

"This… I knew that her Nation accepted non-humans as citizens… but making one your Champion, Nyx, isn't this a bit…?" muttered Zeus, a tall and muscular old man, with a hairy chest and a long white beard, he sat over a throne in the middle of all the Gods present, he was truly the King of Gods.

Nyx could sense the glares from all these Gods, alongside many others across the globe, yet she was sure of her choice.

Veronica was someone important, she knew it very well, the knowledge she shared, the world where she came from, and the clues she gave to Nyx!

Nyx needed to make her be known… and she was also about to tell them the truth!

She was betting it all on Veronica because she knew about her potential, and what she could be capable of!

Nyx was one of the few Gods that wanted to make bonds with entities from other Worlds, when she came with the idea and shared it with Zeus and the other Gods, she was immediately rejected.

This was because they feared alien Gods that might end up changing the world to the worst instead of helping it, even when the most logical thing to do was for her to look for other Gods that were experiencing the same problem as the ones in Kosmos, and through her Divinity that let her gaze through the stars of countless universes, she found many worlds going through the same thing as Kosmos.

They called such an event 'The Apocalypse'.

Some Gods had figured ways to fend off these Dungeons and even to not let the System Master do as it pleased, but many ones were falling into this event.

Whatever was happening, it was occurring in many places, not just Kosmos!

And whatever this Apocalypse truly was, it was way too suspicious that it was happening in every world!

She knew that something was going on, that there were entities outside of their world watching over them… planning things out!

And then, she had realized something!

After speaking with many Gods across worlds, and after gathering a lot of information, she learned something…

This System Master did not intend to help humanity.

Nor is even intended to help Gods or give them a hand.

No, it was planning something.

Many gods had told Nyx that the System was slowly transforming the energy of their worlds into the System, and then using the System to slowly nourish the Origin Core of these worlds!

The ultimate goal of this was…

Harvesting the world when it was finally filled with all of that concentrated power, like some fruit on its ripe!

Although this was not confirmed by the silent and mysterious entity named the System Master, this was a very logical conclusion that many Gods across worlds realized after comparing all of the experiences that they saw through their worlds.

Nyx tried to tell this to Zeus and the Olympians, but the only one that heard her was Hades…

Nyx wanted to join what was called a 'World's Alliance' with many other Gods to help each other, but she was rejected!

Zeus was way too frightened and fearful about contacting other worlds, he wanted everything to stay as it always has been, after defeating his father, he only desired peace and the tranquility that has always existed.

Nyx, at first, had to accept.

After all, even as the personification of the Night, she was not able to fight against the powerful Zeus, he was the King of Gods and the one that also possessed the Divinity of his father Cronos and that of his grandfather Uranus!

Because Cronos defeated Uranus and ate part of its power, when Zeus defeated Cronos and stole his powers from his corpse, he gained all of this amassed power, becoming unparalleled!

The only ones capable of fighting back would be the Titans, Poseidon's family, and Hades and her gods, but they were neutral into this, and Nyx had to simply accept his will.

However, now that Veronica had finally come to her, she could not possibly let her go!

She was the connection to another world, so she could finally find some aid from them, and also to aid them back and amass power and allies.

Even more, after she discovered that Veronica had already met someone from another world, Kireina!

By allying Veronica, she would not simply get one world as an ally, but possibly two!

Nyx also trusted in their strength, and of the overwhelming potential that Veronica had… if she were nurtured enough, she could one day even rival Zeus!

And if she were to bring from other worlds several of her allies with the same potential, the power hierarchy in Kosmos would be finally turned upside down, Zeus would not be able to force everyone to obey him, and Nyx would be able to forge more bonds and alliances with other worlds, and prepare for the 'Harvest' that will one day come, which would mean the complete destruction of these worlds undergoing Apocalypse!

Making her people and the Gods get to know Veronica was one bet she wanted to do.

As she also wanted to prove if Hades was truly at her side.

Nyx remembers when Veronica spoke to her about Hades, and how she showed a lot of kindness and interest.

Nyx wanted Hades and the entire underworld to be on her side, and although it sounded shady, she needed to use Veronica for that purpose!

"Everyone. She is Veronica, an otherworldly entity!" said Nyx, surprising everyone, even the Gods, even Zeus!

Every single citizen of the Nation of the Night gasped.

Their devotion to Nyx was incredibly immense, after all, she accepted even the children of Echidna, considered as monsters, and hunted down by humans.

Nyx was seen as the mother that had accepted them no matter their appearances and cultures, and they could not help but admire and trust her words, although some still doubted her decisions.

"A person from another world?!"

"That's… impossible! …Right?"

"Nyx-sama has never told any joke to us, she's dead serious!"

"But how?! And why?"

"I can't believe this… but if Nyx-sama says so…"

As the people were confused and accepting this truth, Zeus was raging, as thunder fell from the sky!

"NYX! Move away from that being! I shall exterminate it and then punish you for disobeying me!" he roared, descending to the earth!

"No way…" muttered Veronica.
