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

Chapter 407 - Wellerman

-----

As the Pirate Ghost Blackeye invited Veronica, Ervas, and Kireina inside his ship as if it were his home, several presences from within began to awaken after sensing the presence of the new guests.

??

Skeletons covered in coral, seaweed, fish, and even crabs emerged one by one from within the inside and dark areas of the broken ship, wearing tattered clothes that seemed to once look like those that stereotypical pirates would wear.

"Yahahaha! This is my crew! Greet our new guests, bastards!" laughed Blackeye, raising his blade as the skeletons and ghosts began to groan.

"Shut up old man!"

"Get the fuck out of here!"

"We don't want your presence in our resting area!"

"Yeah, damn old man…"

"GRAAAARRGRR!"

"What did Toby said?"

"I think he said the same that we did!"

"Yeah!"

"YARGH! You ungrateful bunch of bastards! I am your captain, pay some respect!" said Blackeye.

"Respect my ass!"

"If it wasn't for you we wouldn't have died back then!"

"My head hurts like hell because of that!" said one of the skeletons who had a large axe stuck on his skull.

"Okay, okay, calm down guys, we are here to help ya get out of there… I bet you are bind to this ship, right?" asked Veronica.

The skeletons and ghosts suddenly became paralyzed, glancing and admiring Veronica's beauty.

She had shapeshifted her lower half into a fishtail like a mermaid, and she made it extra realistic by making her armor into the shiny metallic scales.

Alongside that, she was wearing a starfish bikini made of actual starfish she found around…

Everyone glanced at her with their empty and void eyes devoid of any light, although a small, blue light emerged of their empty skulls… well, some were filled with coral and other sea animals.

"Aaahhh…"

"Ooooohhh…"

"Mermaid…"

"So beautiful…"

"Her presence… do you feel it too?"

"Woah… I am in love…"

"Man… What…"

"GRAAAAAARRR!"

"Holy queen of the seas!"

"Our queen is here! Our queen is here, you bastards!"

"AHOY!"

By just speaking, Veronica was praised as the queen of the seas by these skeletons and ghosts, who kneeled towards her and began to praise her beauty in all manner of words, some were nastier than others, while others were pretty good with words.

Veronica felt rather flattered, she had never met so many Undead that was this charismatic before… charisma in an undead was rare, although all of their friends had certain charisma within them, this group was completely filled with it!

Veronica even left the kiss her hands, although they had no lips anyways.

"They are… completely obeying my lady! Good! See, bastards?! You aren't serving me anymore, you are serving lady Veronica!" said Blackeye.

"Aye, shut up!"

"Yeah, shut up, you are interrupting us from admiring our lady's beauty, ugly-ass old man!"

"My lady doesn't hear that old man, he has fish inside his head,"

"Fufu, you guys are so funny… Alright, let's get to it then, we'll carry the entire ship to the surface!" said Veronica.

"To the surface?!" asked everyone present.

"Yeah, leave it to us!" said Veronica.

Veronica, Ervas, and Kireina slowly carried the large ship towards the sea surface, Veronica created metallic threads and made a net with it, moving one of the ship pieces, while Kireina and Ervas moved the other through their sheer strength alone and a bit of support from their souls, materialized as tentacles.

Splash! Splash!

The two pieces of the ship began to float for a little time, but they would probably sink once more if left floating for too long due to their weight.

"AAHH! The light of the sun!"

"Oooh, praise the sun!"

"OOOOoOOoohhhh…!"

"Our savior! We had been freed from the underwater prison that binds our souls to the depths!"

"That's nice because the crabs and fish were slowly eating us up!"

"Yeah, a few more years and we would have turned into fish food…!"

"Welcome to the surface then boys, time for all of you to get some work!" said Veronica.

"Aye, captain!" said everyone while raising their arms and rusty weapons, even Blackeye joined in.

Veronica began to slowly assemble the ship back up again, using the several pieces of wood and other materials she found around until it could finally keep afloat.

Although it needed some serious cleaning, as it was filled with coral and many sea animals lurking inside, there were tons of fish jumping around as well, and a group of octopuses being a bit aggressive as well, as they grabbed whatever they found and threw it against the skeletons.

"Hm, weren't we going to make it bigger?" asked Ervas.

"Yeah, that's where we go find the next ship!" said Veronica.

As the Ghost of Gordon spoke at her side.

"Very well, please, follow me, my lady!" said Gordon, leading Veronica, Ervas, and Kireina deep underwater again!

SPLASH!

Once more diving into the water, the group reached the depths of the ocean once more, finding a cliff where Rank 4 monsters Giant Squids roamed around and were fighting against a normal Sperm Whale, they were easily defeating the large animal, which was then sliced into pieces and grabbed by their large tentacles, moving it depth into their lair.

"Damn, the sea is really amazing, you don't see that every day…" sighed Veronica, as she saw the soul of the whale fly away.

"Wait, come here," said Veronica.

The large whale soul stopped, as it moved towards Veronica, moving its tail like a puppy.

"Are you going to adopt it?" asked Ervas.

"Yeah, let's add it to the crew, maybe it could become the main soul of the ship," said Veronica.

"Eh…? Are you sure? How can a whale control a ship well?" asked Ervas.

"Oh, maybe it can because it knows the sea pretty well, isn't it? Perhaps even better than the sailors…" said Kireina.

"Sea! I am adding a ton of fish souls too," said Veronica.

"Here, my lady!" said Gordon, as the party reached an area where there was a giant ship, perhaps even bigger than the one Blackeye had!

It was submerged into the depths of this underwater cliff, which was filled with strange-looking animals and monsters they had never seen before, making the trio remind themselves of the pictures of Earth where they saw those newly discovered animals deep underwater.

Veronica quickly grabbed the pieces of the ship, which was crushed into three, and moved them above the sea alongside Kireina and Ervas.

Splash! Splash! Splash!

"Our lady is here!" said Blackeye, as the other pirates ignored him but still cheered for Veronica.

"Phew, with this… it should be nice enough, let's mold it around, I want it big!" said Veronica.

"Oh? Are we combining them together?" asked Kireina.

"That's right! Let us do that!" said Veronica.

"This is going to take some time… But let us use Golem Creation to convert the wood into golems and combine it around," said Ervas.

Veronica and Ervas quickly merged the three boats through the use of Golem Creation, converting the wood of the ships into golems and manipulating them to their liking, combining them together and fusing the two ships into a giant beast of a boat.

"Now, you guys go there and…!" said Veronica, sending the giant whale dead spirit alongside the other dead spirits she had prepared, merging them together and fusing them into the boat while using Undead Transformation Skill to convert the whole thing into an Undead!

The entire boat began to flow with phantasmal energy, as it exuded a deadly, and fearful aura!

It began to move over the water on its own, even, and it quickly opened a large, sharp mouth made of broken wood, with two glowing eyes that were holes in the boat, glowing with sickly green colors…

There was also a broken-down mast, which Veronica planned to make anew with the symbol of their Kingdom.

"GRRUUUOOOOOOOOOONNN…!"

The boat groaned!

"It's alive! HAHAHAHA!" Laughed Veronica, she was going to do the complete Evil Necromancer Roleplay now!

"With this, we can finally begin to cross the sea, nice!" said Kireina.

"Yeah, finally… Mom, I hope she's there…" said Ervas.

"Aw, we'll make sure to help you find here, my dear," said Kireina, petting Ervas head.

Veronica celebrated with her fans- tamed pirate Undead, as they all began to dance around her as if she were some kind of idol.

"So everyone, who do we call our new ship?" asked Veronica.

"Moby Dick, I was thinking," said Ervas.

"Hmmm… How about the sea shanty? Wellerman?" said Veronica.

"Oh?! That's a good one! So your Earth also has it!" said Kireina.

"Wellerman sounds good enough," said Ervas.

"Oh!? Sea Shanties? We know a bunch!"

"Alright you bastards, sing for our lady!"

"Ahoy!"

The Undead Pirates began to sing a harmonious melody that they always sand while traversing the seas and when things got rough.

However, they singed so eerily and with ghostly and phantasmal voices that they seemed to be the babblers of accursed fiends of the depths of darkness, if ordinary people were hearing these things, they would surely go insane by the sheer amount of fear they would feel, or probably fall unconscious.

Their skulls cracked and laughed, making eerie sounds that would run chills through the spine of anyone that were not within the circle of allies of Ervas and Veronica.

The Sea Shanty continued for several minutes, which was often interrupted by the crazed laughter of the undead, making a creepy yet cheerful atmosphere around Wellerman.

Wellerman groaned happily as it dived into the water over and over again, as if it were an actual whale, jumping into the airs to dive deep once more.

"They are pretty good singers for lacking throats and mouths and… well," said Ervas.

"Yep, I think we got a pretty talented bunch!" said Veronica.

"Ugh, Pirates and their stupid songs…" sighed Gordon.

Meanwhile, within the beach, everyone glanced at the sea as a ghost ship jumped around over the sea while singing a cheerful song from the creepy voices of undead…

If any normal person were to see this, they would most likely have a heart attack…

However, three mysterious figures were glaring from very far away at the scene, barely understanding what was going on anymore…

"S-So that's… what Veronica has become…" said one of them, a beautiful elf man that resembled a young girl.

"This is… she really became a user of Death Magic…" said an elf woman at the side of the elf man, barely believing her eyes.

"This is… terrifying… Imagine if she were to carry such a giant Undead to the town, it would be gone in seconds…" said a man at their side.

"Good thing they don't have particularly bad intentions with the people…" said the elf woman.

"Yeah, we had seen enough, I think it should be time to finally join them…" said the elf man.
