Demon Queen Rebirth: I Reincarnated as a Living Armor?!-Chapter 745 - The Dark Lord Of The Depths

-----

Beaky was formidable for a beast they just tamed, using his spear-like beak, he skewered the goblins easily while the two girls atop his back slain the green-skinned men with long-distance magic.

Violet used her own eyes, growing them over the palm of her hands, as enormous and unsightly, red-colored eyes popped out of her thin and delicate hand, charging energy and then firing laser beams at the goblins, these laser beams easily pierced their body and flesh, leaving them with countless holes across their bodies.

Aside from that, there was also the deadly attacks from Aura, she pointed her index finger at them, and rays of bright yellow-gold light came out, like beams, they pierced through the heads and bodies of the monsters, and they died filled with bloody and burnt holes.

The Goblins were dumbly attacking them out of desperation, as they saw their comrades fall one by one, they began to despair but out of pure anger, continuing to attack the girls with utmost bravery and wilderness, the monsters were still rather relentless, but Beaky was putting a lot of work as well, and it ended in all of them running straight to their deaths…

The fight against 40 goblins ended swiftly as all 40 of them died miserably, beaky began to eat a few himself. He was still wounded all over his body, but as a strong beast, he would naturally recover and gain a lot of scars. However, Aura didn't liked that idea.

"Healing Light!"

She conjured a low-level light spell and began to heal Beaky's body. The creature felt the encompassing light of her magic and also her warmth and groaned happily.

"Grooak…"

"Do you feel better now, Beaky?" asked Aura.

"Groak!"

Beaky gave a loud roar and then began to devour another Goblin corpse, he was hungry and had a big stomach. His fur was brown and golden, with a few red stripes, it was also quite soft to sit over his back, so the girls were enjoying the ride.

As everyone began to butcher the goblins corpses for the magic crystals, which were of an incredible quality that even compared to the highest divine materials that could be harvested around the divine realm of Veronica and Ervas, the split souls began to talk about something.

Although very faintly, Ervas had perceived something.

"You felt something?" asked Veronica.

"Very faintly, the power of energy absorption of this place kinds of makes sensing energies from afar quite hard, but I was able to sense it, something dark… Reminded me of the feeling that Demon Gods used to give us…" said Ervas.

"Really? Hmm…" Veronica said, while rubbing her chin in contemplation.

"I can't feel anything." She said while waving her head.

"Just as I thought, indeed, you can't really feel it as I did, I don't know why but that's the case, it appears to be." Said Ervas.

"How odd, oh well, what can we do anyways?" wondered Veronica.

"I don't know but this might be… Hm, well, we need to move further to investigate more." said Ervas.

"Yep! Let's go." Said Veronica.

The party quickly continued their journey, everyone noticed that they were gaining more EXP by slaying the monsters they encountered, there was a wide variety of Beaked Dolphbeasts around, they had diversified in all sorts of creatures. Some of them were bulky like rhinoceros, others were longer and slimmer like giraffes, and others became so big and sturdy they were like elephants.

There were a lot of flying ones too, they had adapted to fly on their own, using power flight similar to bats. But they were monsters as they were infected by miasma, and had super strength, and magical power, alongside developing abilities, so they could create storms with the flap of their wings, or unleash fireballs.

Some of them were more "dangerous" than others, although none of them proved to be of any issue for the group.

However, as they walked around, the Veronica and Ervas received the report from Octo, the spirit they had created to watch over Manationia. It appears he had been teaching her how to use magic pretty well, and the two are growing stronger steadily.

Manationia seemed to have become amazing at magic and might had become the strongest of her race, but she needs to first master this magic and learn how to use it all properly. This is why Octo was there, to guide her and more…

Octo was created by the two using their powers, he was special because he was made out of Yin and Yang Energy for the most part, but this power was mostly hidden for now. It meant that Octo was an overpowered being but had yet to awaken the power until the "right moment".

In theory they had made him as an experiment to see if a Spirit could be born from these energies, and the result was satisfactory… they also added their own knowledge and a lot of information, but he wasn't really a clone of them.

And now that she was growing so strong, the only thing left was to keep practicing, she was also earning a lot of money by hunting down beasts on her own, but lately she had been being attacked by mysterious figures, until the last time where she and Octo found a lot of interesting clues.

In one of such clues, they learned that the Duke was colluding with a dark group of mysterious cult members that worshiped a dark entity said to live in the depths of the planet…

This had not much impact on Manationia because she had no idea of the greater picture and was interested in surviving for now, but Octo, who was made out with a lot of intelligence and the power to transfer information directly into Veronica and Ervas' minds quickly realized something was going on now, and that this might be… just might be, what the split souls wanted as clues.

"Wait, the Dark Lord of the Depth?" asked Ervas.

"I think we found the thing we were so afraid of…" sighed Veronica.
