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

??

"How could it be? Just like that time… those metallic spiders… I cannot sense their presence! But even then, how is it possible for them to hide the presence of the living beings traveling inside of them?!"

Oggoth, whose entire being was sealed in the underground area of the dungeon roared in anger, he was not able to fully use his powers while sealed, and even when he was capable of exerting some of his power, it cost way too much and caused great fatigue into his mind.

Although he had the powerful Fragments of Anir and Kelsus, if he used them without care, he would end up being absorbed by them and converted into a crazed beast obeying the chaotic and undecipherable will of the Great Gods that only wanted to destroy everything.

Such Fragments brought great strength, but they also slowly eroded the mind of those that used them… due to this, it was extremely dangerous to wield them for prolonged amounts of time, even as a God.

Veronica and Ervas abused Oggoth\'s weakness of not being able to use all of his sensorial abilities while being sealed, as he was not capable of clearly discerning things that lacked Life Energy, so most Undead would be capable of sneaking through his senses.

"No matter what tricks you used, it\'s your loss! The moment you stepped inside my domain, all of your minds are below my powerful authority! Now despair as I make all of you descend into endless madness!" laughed Oggoth, as he used the small amount of Divine Power he had accumulated, enough for him to fry the brains of everyone present by using his unique mind erosion abilities.

Most of Ervas and Veronica\'s army had already entered Oggoth\'s dungeon as they massacred hundreds of Rank 6 High Gazers one after another. Through exceptional teamwork coupled with the boost from the \'Strengthen Followers\' Skills granted by Ervas and Veronica to their citizens, their strength had multiplied by several times, even if they were merely demi-humans that had changed Jobs two or thrice, through working together using skills such as \'Coordination\' alongside their Cursed Equipment and Weapons, the army was strong enough to massacre the Rank 6 fiends without many issues.

However, as they kept advancing through the opening made by Ervas and Veronica, the will of Oggoth expanded through the dungeon, and by expending its Divine Power left, he sent thousands of powerful shockwaves, directly to the brains of those that had entered his domain.

"This is what happens to those that oppose me! Descend to madness and become my puppets!" Oggoth laughed.

"That\'s a good trick… but we were prepared for such a thing, after all, we couldn\'t simply ignore that you were using Mind controlling powers into your army, so we prepared beforehand you could use them against us as well," said Ervas.

Although he could not hear Ervas\' voice clearly from within the depths of the dungeon, Oggoth slightly understood what the young boy meant.

"Prepared?!" Oggoth shouted.

The transparent waves generated by Oggoth that expanded through the entire dungeon were directed towards every living being he could detect, and they should have, just as he said, make their minds chaotic while letting them descend into madness…

But instead, the waves were suddenly blocked by another transparent force, which was coating the heads of every living being, or the areas around their brains.

Then, to Oggoth\'s senses, thin threads made out of Phantom and this formless and transparent energy were revealed to Oggoth… Such threads were connected to every living being that possessed a brain, except the Plant-type monsters and Undead, who seemed to not be affected by Oggoth.

"That\'s… This is ridiculous! You should not be capable of doing such a thing! Grraaa! Krakenusa, send everything against them! And then vaporize them with your powers, show no mercy! It doesn\'t matter if none of them is left to be used as tools, kill them all!" roared Oggoth, as he felt his energy quickly deplete after having wasted it by trying to fry the brains of his enemy army.

Krakenusa, the Rank 10 High Gazer Emperor obeyed her father\'s words as she kept producing eggs from the proboscis of her fleshy tentacles, which hatched almost immediately into High Gazers one after another.

Although they were newborn, these Gazers had enough strength to vaporize most beings through the lasers from their eyes, however, they were na?ve and lacked intelligence and experience, and quickly succumbed to the weapons of their enemies.

Those that managed to fire their Lasers had their attacks blocked by magic barriers created by the magicians of the groups, and even then, the Cursed Equipment used by everyone was already of Rank 4 and 5, strong enough to resist the lasers of the newborn Gazers at least two to three times before breaking.

Amongst the groups of the army that followed Veronica and Ervas, there was Ismene, Amelia, Alesia, and Mysticia alongside many other magicians, which conjured powerful spells to kill the armies of never-ending High Gazers one after another.

"This amount of Experience Points is insane! My Level already maxed out!" shouted Amelia, as she conjured Spirit Magic and her Earth and Fire Attribute Magic Skills together, creating powerful spells that could put some of the magicians in the Magician Guilds in shame.

Large beasts of all shapes and sizes made out of lava rampaged the High Gazers through their sheer attacks or their breaths made out of the same component, these beasts were Amelia\'s specialty, who had learned and figured out spells that summoned \'familiars\' by using Salamander and Gnome\'s help.

These familiars had strength equal to Rank 3 or 4 monsters, and had great resiliency and power, but cost large amounts of Mana to be summoned… not like it mattered, as Ervas was constantly sharing his mana with everyone present through connecting his phantasmal threads with them, he was a walking battery, to say the least.

"Hang in there, Amelia, you can\'t simply change Jobs in the middle of the battlefield!" said Ismene (Squirrel-kin Chief), conjuring Blades of Light and Shields of Flames and Light to attack the Gazers and protect herself and her group against their deadly lasers, she was wearing light Cursed Armor made for mages, alongside a Cursed Staff of Rank 5, which knew magic by itself as well and conjured it against enemies whenever Ismene was busy conjuring something else.

"Can she?" asked Alesia, another of the magician ladies party members and the chief of the Ghouls, controlling giant roots of the trees from the outside, generating tentacles made out of vines that slapped and entangled the gazers through her offensive Life Attribute Magic spells.

"Of course, Amelia-chan! Do you think that the Great Ervas and the Great Veronica did not think about this?" Mysticia asked as she conjured a wave of shadows that enveloped three High Gazers into a shadow pouch, which she burned alive through black flames generated by her Cursed Staff.

Suddenly, amidst the bloodshed, a large carrier-type Veronica Clone appeared, carrying a large and majestic, green-colored crystal atop its body.

"Hello, ~ Express Job Changing Service here~! Who needs to change Jobs? Hurry up that I am quite busy!" it said.

"Wait, what?!" asked Ismene and Alesia at the same time.

"Me! Me!" said Amelia, running towards Veronica\'s Clone and touching the Crystal, quickly changing Jobs and then going back into the fight.

"Very well then, anyone else? No? Then I am off!" said Veronica\'s Clone, running to another group that wanted to Change Jobs… in the middle of a war.

"To think that such a thing would be in the middle of a fight! This is ridiculous!" said Alesia.

"Get used to it…" said Ismene.
