Demon Queen Rebirth: I Reincarnated as a Living Armor?!-Chapter 698 - The Fall

-----

After the twins had created their civilization and nourished it for thousands of years, they finally began to advance into the creation of space-faring technology of amazing heights, and their magic expertise also began to grow exponentially.

Although they could do most of the things they did, the goddesses suddenly found out outsmarted by their own people as they ended making all sorts of new inventions, they couldn't possibly make themselves, their own civilization had reached the breaking point where they were surpassing the two goddesses and becoming incredible. 𝐟𝙧ee𝔀e𝐛𝓃𝐨𝚟𝑒𝗹.c𝗼𝚖

Of course, they only felt joy at this. After all, it is the goal of any god that creates their own people and civilizations to reach a point where their own people begin to surpass them slowly but steadily! It is like the goal of a father to see his child one day become a better version of them, a better version of what they could had been, and an even stronger one too.

But what happened after that was the thing that ruined everything, as the civilization of Erveronians were advancing by leaps and bounds with the two goddesses deciding to take a break and not intervene with them for a few thousand years, an invasion happened.

The Hivemind emerged, and the first reality check to the twins was received. After all, they never expected that something like this could happen, space was so vast and… empty. How could it be that they ended being invaded by such an advanced race of space-traveling all-devouring entities? The Hivemind was a terrifying race of creatures that absorbed the biomass of any planet they could find, assimilating it completely and then making a new "self" out of such planets and moons with life.

The Hivemind were a fierce race of alien creatures, and using their advanced strength and powers, they pushed forward and destroyed any kind of defense that the Erveronians had prepared, even their strongest atomic bombs, their most powerful magical beams, and anything else… everything was useless, the Hivemind was incredibly strong.

The two goddesses ended having to step into the battle after millions prayed for their help, feeling shocked by their civilization which had advanced so much to not be capable of fending off this alien attack… but the thing is, Hivemind were not normal aliens, they were one of the strongest nomadic races of aliens that lived in massive colonies of self-replicating flesh masses.

They were powerful creatures that thirsted for life and blood, and traveled thousands if kilometers, even light years, just to reach a planet with life. They traveled all the way here so they could devour this planet.

Hivemind were a race of powerful aliens capable of amazing self-replication and adaptation, they were able to constantly evolve due to their unique composition, and even assimilate all sorts of abilities and capabilities that other living beings they consumed had, reaching a point where they were slowly perfectioning themselves into becoming enormously powerful god-like entities without even having any concept of such a thing as cultivation like other races across the Universe had, but which they had reached the same peak performance that God-Realm or above entities were capable of showcasing, if not even better, more efficient, and incredibly more terrifying too.

Desiring to absorb and assimilate the planet's entire biomass into their own, the massive Hivemind, which is an intergalactic colony of powerful aliens, sent their own Vessel, a moon-sized entity of tremendous planetary-destruction capabilities, using this entity to face the intelligent life in this planet filled with tasty biomass.

They easily destroyed any kind of defense the people could use, and even absorbed it and assimilated it, copying to perfection, and showcasing the ability to utilize and manipulate magic like nothing else in this world. ƒ𝑟𝐞𝗲𝘄𝙚𝚋𝑛ｏ𝙫𝒆𝒍.𝒄𝘰𝓂

They copied their magic and even unleashed new spells, combining all elements into a perfect combination of magic usage as if they were perfect magicians who had lived for thousands of years utilizing magic, and the truth was, magic was widespread across the entire Universe to an extent, as Mana flowed freely across galaxies, it was totally possible that the Hivemind had already mastered magic by devouring and assimilating into their biomass many races of magic-using entities.

As the Erveronians lost hope, the two goddesses emerged and fought against the hivemind, using all the strength they could muster… going completely all out from the beginning, using every type of power they could, but the Hivemind regenerated faster, absorbed energy better, and learned.

It learned how to fight against supreme gods, copied their powers, and used them against the twins, they were learning and growing stronger and stronger the moment the fight began, and the Hivemind spread its clones into small drones, sending them into the planet while the goddesses were busy fighting it, ending in the destruction and assimilation of the biomass of many civilizations of Erveronians.

Seeing their people being massacred without being able to do anything, the twins' hearts were broken apart, their rage grew larger, as they cursed their creators, Ervas and Veronica, for having brought all of this together, for creating them, and for causing their existential dread to create these people they loved so much, which they were now seeing being destroyed, but they also cursed the Hivemind, this vicious race of monstrous all-devouring aliens, which showed to them the harshness and coldness of the outer universe.

While their creators were leisurely living easygoing lives inside the worlds of Kritias which were closed in Spatial Walls, isolated from the dangers of the outside space, the twins were doing everything they could to defend their precious home and their people, the only thing they had left, against the monstrous Hivemind, who were all-consuming demons.

The fight continued relentlessly as the Hivemind became more fierce, and the Erveronians were facing almost total extinction…

At the end, the twins did something rash and decided to sacrifice themselves to put a stop to the Hivemind, even if it meant that they would end up trapping themselves so they could contain this interplanetary monster…

And that's when the big event named "The Fall" happened…
