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

Chapter 563 - A Quick Trip To The Desert

-----

Within a large sea of golden sands bathing beneath a ruthless sun's light, many people of all shapes and sizes seemed to be celebrating something.

In such a place, there was a gigantic city in the middle of the sea of sands, where there was a big oasis, the biggest oasis there was in this region.

The city was enormous, and thousands of people lived inside. However, almost all of them were not even human, nor elf, and there were barely any dwarves.

This was a city built entirely by demons and beast-kin, the Oasis City of Golden Dune!

This spectacular city of beautiful scenery and architecture that seemed right off Arabic regions from Earth was where Doragon and his wife came from, this was also known as the golden city, the city of merchants, the one where most of the merchants all across this desert area within the Large Continent of Anir's Hands gathered.

Most of the people in here belonged to races that were not present anywhere else in the continent and perhaps only rarely within the demon continent, such as Earth Dragon-kin, the race that Doragon belonged to, Desert Lamia, Scarab Arachne, and more.

Today's celebration, however, was different, as it was celebrating the amount of food and resources that Ervas and Veronica had brought today, which they had sold at cheap places all around shamelessly and nonchalantly.

Of course, this made many of the merchants angry! The first week here, they were chased by many assassins. Of course, all the assassins were disposed of and all the culprits behind all of it were "reformed".

Now, the people celebrated a new All-Purpose Super Market that was set right in the middle of this enormous city!

Because coming here to beg these people to join their divine realm was not their style, the two split souls decided to remain in each checkpoint with their phantom clones and leave some of their people here monitoring things out, while also constantly aiding the population in need with food and other items.

For the first time in perhaps hundreds of years, today the city of Golden Dunes began to celebrate a Harvest Festival! And no, it wasn't due to the food the split souls brought, but the plants that they enhanced to grow incredibly quickly, alongside any other seeds they planted a week and a half ago here!

The land around the oasis became completely unrecognizable, there were large trees growing around and even forests, and most of the desertic land was now covered in tall grass and other plants.

Ervas and Veronica had slowly showcased their miraculous powers, and most people here already treated them as Heroes from a benevolent God or something…

Delicious and sweet wine was shared amongst all the populations, alongside all types of rice, seeds, and delicious seasoned grilled meat of many types of monsters or other animals.

While Ervas and Veronica celebrated with the people and Doragon, at the same time, they were also within a dark space, a divine realm of another demon god.

The entity before them resembled a giant pyramid with a large eye on its top, it exuded a powerful pressure…

"Thank you so much for what you've done for my people… I will be forever indebted!" he said, as he sounded more pathetic than intimidating.

"Don't worry about that. It is quite refreshing to find a good Demon God," said Veronica.

"Yeah, they are often sickos," said Ervas.

"Haha… Well, yes. But amongst those that desired destruction or chaos, there are some more laid back such as me… Oh, and as I said previously, I will be at your care! I will gladly join your pantheon, Veronica, Ervas!" said the giant pyramid.

This pyramid was Arrdurr, the Demon God of Crypts and Catacombs, he was a lesser god of dungeons as well, and he had separated himself from the Demon God King army since his death, seeking refuge in desolate lands.

Unlike some of his peers, he didn't like fighting and didn't particularly hold malicious thoughts nor the desire to make others suffer to get excited, so he mostly laid back and slept, until suddenly, people began to gather around his dungeons, which brought him some energy as they produced and killed monsters inside.

As he grew curious of these people, he ended revealing himself to a chosen one, and was then known as the God of the Desert… a big city was built here and, fast forward to now, he was perhaps the single god that most people here worshiped.

The problem was that his powers were limited on making crypts and catacombs-like dungeons, and what food he could bring were often in the form of desert-type monsters… Sometimes his dungeons didn't even produce flesh creatures but golems similar to him…

Due to this, after many years of good weather, some bad luck fell over the land and the people started to starve. He could barely do much as he was a fairly weaker Demon God, but he had tried his best to take care of the people until now.

Honestly, when the split souls arrived here, it was a big relief for him… the people finally had enough food, and they could finally prosper.

"You really grew attached to these people, didn't Arrdurr?" asked Veronica.

"Well yes, after hundreds of years, you grow attached to the people… Their worship had also helped me feel healthier after the wounds I had after the war… I am also indebted with these people and their later generations…" said Arrdurr.

"We'll be monitoring this place from now on, but you'll still be the one that will take care of the people. Until the day where they are finally ready to move into our divine realms, we'll leave it up to you," said Veronica.

"Yeah, good luck," said Ervas.

"A-Ah! Yes, I will do my best!" said Arrdurr.

"Oh, wait, here," said Ervas, as he and Veronica touched the giant pyramid-like god and infused some divine energy into him.

"GGGOOOHHH?!"

"That' should do it, with that, you can do some more stuff," they said, as they went away.

"S-Such power… just how strong are they?!" wondered Arrdurr.
