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

Chapter 384 - Back To Ervas And Veronica!

-----

Ervas and Veronica, completely unaware of the plans of Hekaton, were still within the party made by Willian.

??

As they had decided on inviting Vairvec to Ervas' birthday, they were now settling down to enjoy the rest of the party and talk with as many people as they could to make any connection possible.

Ervas was distributing around the special E-Cream he had crafted using the slime secreted from the Demon God-King Eyes, which had an excellent revitalizing effect on the skin, while also hastening the growth of hair by regenerating dead cells, such as those that made hair grow.

And as they talked about various things with Doragon, and Drakna, a certain aristocrat walked near them.

"Lady Veronica, and Lord Ervas, right? I would like to introduce myself…"

The man looked rather old, with short gray hair and a small height, with a rather fat belly.

He seemed quite normal but Ervas and Veronica knew he was indeed someone important in this city, and one of their targets.

"Oh, hello. It is nice to meet you… Lord Aran," said Veronica.

"Hello, Lord Aran," said Ervas.

Aran was the owner of a large monopoly of shops that sold all kinds of items for the daily lives of any person in Seashore alongside equipment for adventurers, soldiers, and aristocrats.

He also held several alchemy shops, where potions would be mass-produced to be sold to adventurers or soldiers.

As one who held almost the entire authority over such a proliferating monopoly in Seashore, it was not an exaggeration to say that he was filthy rich!

And even more… he held a deep and dark secret that made him Ervas and Veronica's target.

"(They know my name…?) A-Ah, yes, that's my name… I am flattered to know that you know my name," said Aran.

"But of course we know, sir Aran, you are one of the most famous persons around," said Veronica.

"Indeed, we know a lot about you," said Ervas.

"E-Eh? Is that… so?" asked Aran.

"Yes, such as that you are the owner of many shops and other things," said Veronica, her answer relieved Aran, for a moment, he had imagined that they might know his secret.

But thankfully, they did not know about his secret… or so he thought.

"Indeed. We are glad that you have come to acknowledge us…" said Ervas.

"Oh, I see. I wanted to greet both of you. As new merchants of this town, it is my courtesy to greet those entering into the business world… Please, take my souvenir," said Aran, as he gifted Ervas and Veronica a bottle of fine and aged wine.

"Oh, nice wine, thanks a lot, sir," said Veronica while trying to act polite and refined, although she really could not.

"(The wine is cursed…)" said Ervas telepathically.

"(I knoooow… I can feel that is cursed. Did this guy just gifted us this so our business go down or something?)" asked Veronica telepathically.

"(Most likely, he probably cursed the wine using his Demon God apostle powers or whatever. I don't know how it works but it seems that those that serve Demon Gods can gain powers through their Divine Protections)" said Ervas telepathically.

"(Well it will be a nice treat, we can eat curses so it's fine)" said Veronica telepathically.

"(Yeah, although I am not at the age to drink wine yet)" answered Ervas telepathically.

Aran glanced at the two as they remained silent for a few seconds while talking through telepathy.

"Ehm… Is there some problem? (D-Did they realize it's cursed?! Damn it!)" asked Aran.

"Eh? No, no, we are fine. We were just thinking on how considerate you were, Lord Aran," said Veronica, as she approached the old man and petted his head while winking at him coquettishly.

Aran felt relieved and a bit flustered by having such a beautiful woman near him, unlike his wife who was an old woman or the countless other slaves he could have, Veronica had a transcendental and phantasmal beauty that slightly captivated him… yet there was a presence within her that made him slightly feel aware of her… perhaps it was her Guidance clashing against the encroachment of the Demon God he served, Borunidhan, the Demon God of False Treasures.

"Indeed. Here, please take this token of our appreciation. It is a special cream we are designing that can revitalize the skin and make the hair regrow," said Ervas, giving a bottle of the cream to Aran.

"A cream.. for the skin?" asked Aran.

"That's right, Sir Aran, make sure to not drink it though," said Veronica.

"O-Oh yeah, of course! Haha! (Who do you take me for?! I am not a fool to not know how to use the cream for the skin! …Damn it, this Demon aura is both frightening and captivating. Is she using some Charm Skill?)" said Aran as he began to think why Veronica's aura was so strangely charming.

"Yeah, please don't eat it," said Ervas while nodding.

"A-Anyways, I wish you two a good night, please enjoy the party. Willian is a good friend of mine and he always does good parties. If you want any business with me, feel free to consult my assistant, we could even arrange a meeting shortly if you ever want to," said Aran, as he slowly walked away.

"He looked quite chill for a guy that prays to a Demon God," said Veronica.

"Well he was most likely faking his attitude, obviously," said Ervas.

"Hmm… So the bastard cursed the wine?" asked Shade at the side of Veronica, he had been floating around for a while, no one was able to see him, not even Vairvec, as he was not a spiritualist.

"Yeah, but we will drink it anyway, we eat curses for breakfast. Eating the Necromancer gave us a ton of broken Skills like Curse Eating," said Veronica.

"But why did he want to curse you two? This is why I don't like humans… Always filled with terrible and strange schemes…" sighed Shade.

"Probably because of the Demon God he obeys and follows, Borunidhan, the Demon God of False Treasures. Maybe this Demon God had already detected our presence as we are a tad bit strong. Or maybe it was just Aran's decision. Nonetheless, if the Demon God has authority over false treasures, maybe he is capable of lowering or increasing the luck that we have regarding the selling of items… Maybe he just wants to ruin our business. I assume that he had done the same with other people to always stay at the top," said Ervas.

"Good observation! Indeed, he is pretty shady. Maybe all of his success is just this Demon God's help? Wow, now it makes perfect sense that a guy like him would be following such a thing as a Demon God…" laughed Veronica.

"Make sure to keep your voice down, Veronica! Sigh… how many times have I told you to not talk so loudly?" said Shade.

"Eeeh? Okay, okay… Don't reprimand me or I am not giving you cuddles at night…" said Veronica.

"Huh?! D-Don't talk about those embarrassing things!" said Shade.

"Hm? Who's making a commotion now? Fufu," said Veronica while crossing her arms smugly.

"That's… a low hit! I am just worried…" said Shade.

"Okay, sorry," said Veronica, petting Shade.

"Hmm… Petting me will not get you anywhere…" sighed Shade, although he waved his pointy black tail around as he had his spherical eyeball body petted by Veronica's phantasmal hands… she was now able to "touch" Shade as Kireina had taught her to.

Regarding Kireina, she was being pestered by many young men, as her presence seemed more entailing and less intimidating than Veronica or Ervas, the people were naturally drawn to her some more.

And all of them were eyeing her beautiful and voluptuous body which was wrapped tightly with a beautiful dress.

"Oh my, so many studs around here… Can't a lady catch a break?" asked Kireina rather teasingly, which only made the men more charmed by her.

"I-It is often rare to see a fairy-like you, Lady Kireina. But fear not, I am not like these baboons," said one of the young aristocrats.

"Whoa re you calling baboon?! Please, Lady Kireina, why don't you take a drink with me? We could go to the rooftop and escape these fools," said another.

"Lady Kireina, your beauty has entailed me, please, could you dance at my side for this one song?" asked another.

"Lady Kireina, are you… single by any chance?" asked a fourth.

"A woman of such beauty must already be married… or are you?" asked a fifth.

"Fufu, that's a secret~ But alright, I choose you… Come, let's go to the rooftop, so we can speak more openly… And maybe do something more~" said Kireina, gently talking into the man's ears, as she grabbed his hand and the two walked upstairs through the manor, the man kept glancing at Kireina's round butt as she walked upstairs, and her thick thigs which he could barely resist squeezing.

As if it was not bad enough, her large breasts bounced around, making him move his eyes up and down while following them around.

As the two reached the rooftop, Kireina chatted a bit with the man as she realized how charmed he was by her, he even had a large and noticeable boner.

"Fufu… Do you like me?" asked Kireina.

"I-I… Lady Kireina… y-your beauty has gotten into my mind… I cannot… please! L-Let me… I will make sure to take responsibility!" said the man, as he approached Kireina and grabbed her butt cheeks tightly, grabbing her breasts and squeezing them.

"Oh~ So rude… Fufu… And just as I wanted… Now come…" said Kireina, as the man approached his lips towards her only for him to suddenly sense a strange feeling within Kireina's breasts.

Pain.

"A-Ah?!"

The man suddenly realized that he was sinking into her flesh… and being consumed by hundreds of razor-sharp teeth!

"A-AHHH- Mmmgh?!"

The man tried to scream, but he was stopped by Kireina's hands covering his mouth, as her crimson eyes glanced at them for the last time until he was completely eaten by her very body.

She quickly caught the small soul that came out of the man… and then slowly walked away.

Using telepathy, she communicated to Ervas and Veronica about successfully gotten a soul from one of these aristocrats, as they wanted.

"Thanks… Although did you had to kill him?" asked Ervas.

"Not really, but he just grabbed my body, he enraged me a bit," said Kireina.

"Well, you shouldn't go acting so slutty then," said Veronica.

"W-Who are you calling slutty?!" asked Kireina.

"N-No one…" said Veronica.

"Ditoyle is going to get angry if she knows…" said Ervas.

"Y-Yeah, better not tell her," said Kireina.

Meanwhile, as the party continued until late at night without problems, several strange people woke up completely nude near Seashore…

"We are here…" said a male Vampire within this group, as his crimson eyes gleamed with malice.
