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

??

Veronica remembered that she had acquired the Abyssal Soul Skill when her Shadow Manipulation Skill fused with her Soul Form Skill, meaning that her soul was also the representation of her own shadow, to an extent.

And it seemed that the obvious next step to manipulate shadows was to meld within their internal space and make it possible for things and people to be stored inside of them.

So Veronica was rather happy about this, which already opened a path towards her being able to protect her people inside of her own soul…

Although most people would think this as horrifying.

However, those that followed her and Ervas had a different way of thinking, so they might even feel honored.

Veronica released her soul, letting Shade and Ozgeth inside.

"This place is indeed incredibly vast… is there even an end?" wondered Shade.

"It might be hard to tell because everything is darkness…" said Ozgeth.

"True…" said Shade.

"So how is it?" asked Veronica.

"It is good enough, although we might need to create some kind of artificial sun to illuminate this place… but perhaps I might be able to do something about it," said Shade.

"Me too, we should be able to do something about it," said Ozgeth.

"Hm, I was even thinking in adding a ton of dirt, trees, and other stuff…" said Veronica.

"Hm, to make it more realistic? Perhaps. That does not sound too bad of an idea," said Shade.

"Indeed, my lady, your insight is on point," said Ozgeth.

After taking out Ozgeth and Shade, Veronica relaxed as she noticed that her Job had already leveled up.

Aside from her Strong Clone grinding exp in the Mountain\'s Labyrinth that Araba created, Veronica also earned skill experience by using her soul and putting things inside, such as Shade and Ozgeth.

After a few minutes, it was done.

Veronica once more had awakened more Skills, she felt as if she wanted to dance, but contained herself, as it might have been quite cringing.

"Even more… Skill awakened! Hey, this is insane! Can someone come to nerf me, please?" laughed Veronica, as Shade and Ozgeth glanced at her with a bit of strangeness…

"I am glad that you\'ve managed to… awaken even more Skills, my lady. I could not expect less from you…" said Ozgeth.

"Y-Yeah… I guess this is a special day where you awaken a bunch of them, huh?" said Shade.

"Maybe! …Oh, it already hit max level?!"

Ding!

[Experience Points have reached the required level!]

[User\'s Job has reached Level 100!]

"This… it might be because the Job\'s whole purpose was to have fragments inside of my soul? Well, I already have two, so I guess that made it through," said Veronica, glancing at the last Job of the night.

"Well, this was an overall nice boost… Although I did not get transported to that world or anything like that… Anyways, let\'s rush towards Evolutions now!" said Veronica, as Shade and Ozgeth spectated her.

[Available Evolution Options]

[Rank 10: Divine Underworld Thanatos Hades Living Armor Death Tyrant Empress]

[Rank 10: Divine Shadow Night Nyx Hades Living Armor Abyssal Tyrant Empress]

"Oh? Now I got the option between Thanatos and Nyx… and the name is getting bigger and bigger too, how wonderful…"

"Well, Thanatos represents Death itself, so it could really help out my Death Attribute Magic development… in the other side, there is also Nyx, the literal representation of the night and its darkness… Which could help me develop my Abyssal Tartarus Soul and stuff… Oof, this is hard to choose… Can\'t I just pick both? No? Okay…" thought Veronica, the decision was rather hard.

However, after checking both evolutions descriptions and their pros and cons, she decided that whatever she chooses, it would be fine, as it was not as if the progress regarding her other Skills would simply stop.

In the end, she was more allured to Nyx, who she remembered from her vision of that different world…

"She was such a beauty… Maybe if pick this Evolution I could see her or something? No… I think I am having too much wishful thinking there," thought Veronica, sighing.

Ding!

[You selected the [Rank 10: Divine Shadow Night Nyx Hades Living Armor Abyssal Tyrant Empress] Evolution!]

Flash!

Picking the Nyx evolution, Veronica was enveloped in the shadow of the night!

"E-Eh?! It\'s actually happening…!"

Veronica\'s vision was filled with the shadow of the night, as she began to slowly see tiny sparkles of light around the darkness and even the moon in the dark sky.

"This…"

She glanced at her surroundings but found that much of her vision was locked in one single place.

However, the vision itself was already impressive.

It was a vast ocean of cosmos, where darkness filled it all, but endless sparkles of light illuminated this darkness, stars.

Alongside this, there was the enormous and beautiful silver moon resting in front of her, floating through the cosmos.

She could not only see stars, but beautiful and colorful masses of gases, planets, meteors, comets, and more.

However, unlike Hades, she was alone.

Then, she quickly found out that she was sitting on a beautiful throne of black, purple, and gold colors, and that she was in a very big and open palace, with several openings that revealed the beautiful scenery outside.

However, this tranquility was quickly broken down as Veronica heard the voice of a mature and seductive woman.

"Do you like what you see?" it asked.

"Ah…!"

Veronica knew who this voice was.

Much like with Hades, she found herself in the body of Nyx!

"I…"

"What a curious little soul you are… getting right into my own soul… I feel like I should fear you or be wary of what you are, but for some strange reason, I feel only attracted and interested… Tell me, what are you?" asked the woman, Nyx.
