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

-----

Veronica was engulfed in dozens of Armored Spiders! ??

Like a pile of hellish vermin, the arachnids pilled over her as if she were nothing but a corpse ready to be eaten, their long and venomous claws began to penetrate her body mercilessly… The corrosive venom began to melt her armor until she resembled a puddle of liquified metal, she was done for! …or was she?

Veronica's Health Points had barely decreased since she was attacked… how could it be?

The puddle of liquified metal began to move like a slime, extending its body and solidifying itself once again into large gauntlets, Aqua emerged from within this liquid, begging to pulverize the spiders, unaware that they were munching at nothing but themselves!

"Griiisha?!"

"Griiiiiiihhh…!"

"Grrrryaaaa!"

Veronica used the new properties gained in her living armor after assimilating the liquid metal substance of the body of a Metal Slime, capable of faking her death, she made the spiders think that the victory was already at hand!

Using Aqua's support, the two seemed to have merged, entangled together like two slimes, Veronica finally solidified half of her body into hard gauntlets, and using Aqua's support, both girls unleashed a barrage of jabs by converging their 'Unarmed Fighting Techniques'!

"You always come with the most unexpected of plans, Veronica! Light Ray!" shouted Shade, from within Veronica's soul, firing a series of concentrated rays of pure light, blinding the spiders while Veronica and Aqua worked as one, pulverizing the spiders with a shower of meteorites made out of punches.

Clash! Crack!

By using Unarmed Fighting Techniques as if they were one, but with two different beings, they were able to combine the power of two or multiple techniques into one blow, generating an incredibly powerful attack into the spiders, their hard silverly exoskeleton cracked with ease, revealing their colorful and bloody innards to everyone present.

The spiders didn't stand a chance! Their bodies flew into pieces through the air. Their mother, the giant Spider, who once called itself the Ruler of the Dungeon seemed intimidated by Veronica's performance.

As if things were not enough, Veronica kept using her soul and phantom forms to enhance her blows and generate extra materialized claws, which she used to blast the fiends with even more ease.

The Ruler of the Dungeon desperately began to use her skills, one in specific that gave her the ability to lay eggs that would make her children emerge from them immediately!

Eggs after eggs began to appear behind her, opening and revealing vicious arachnids from within, hungry for fresh food, they recklessly ran towards Veronica aiming for her body!

Could Veronica even be considered a Living Armor anymore? Her body was not rigid at all, it could mold itself with ease, evading attacks or recovering from blows, poison dripped off her body as if it were nothing and whenever her solidified gauntlets broke, she would instantly regenerate them by using 'Armory' together with her unique physiology.

The Ruler of the Dungeon saw the bloody fest as it walked a few steps back.

Just a moment ago, she had the confidence of defeating Veronica... However, this misconception was quickly shattered into pieces.

'Wasn't this thing a Living Armor?!' it thought.

Veronica could be said to have already transcended common sense in what a Living Armor was believable to be capable of. And as if she were obsessed with breaking the expectations of her enemies, she began to materialize pieces of her armor and launched them towards the Ruler of the Dungeon as if they were bullets by using 'Throwing'!

Bang! Bang! Bang!

How could she be capable of doing this?!

By using the unique physiology of her body, she was no more a simply possessed armor. Even her armor was moldable as if it were a semi-liquid object, and by using it in conjunction with her Unique Skill 'Armory', she was capable of solidifying parts of her body, even if she were to launch them again, she was capable of recreating them over her body.

"The moment I assimilated those Metal Slimes, I knew that something strange had changed within me. I was no longer a simple Armor! And even now, I can keep materializing my body through 'Armory' as long as I infuse Mana… Aqua!" shouted Veronica, as Aqua emerged from within her body like a river of slimy water, releasing powerful water bullets towards the smaller spiders while wielding Veronica's shield!

"Now!"

"Guuuboo!"

Aqua extended the shield, as if the static object had turned into a snake, it viciously moved towards the Giant Spider Queen or Ruler of the Dungeon, clashing against its body.

Veronica and Aqua were trying to test its response above all else!

"Griiishaaa!" shouted the Giant Spider, blocking the powerful shield attack with her claws and then grabbing on her children as if they were projectiles, launching them towards Veronica with immense speed and precision!

"Are you kidding me?! She's using them as projectiles!" shouted Veronica, evading the living spider bullets.

As Veronica evaded the attacks with her amazing agility enhanced by 'Charge' and her moldable body, she used her Soul to slash the flying spiders, slicing them in half and eliminating them before they could become an annoying rock into her way towards the 'Boss'.

The Spider Queen kept firing her children mercilessly, as Veronica analyzed her movements and body… she seemed quite heavy and also… slow!

"Did she expect me to be even slower?" thought Veronica, moving through the floor with impressive agility and displaying the evasion techniques she learned in her previous life by abusing 'Memory Retention'.

She kept firing her won projectiles with Aqua's support, while slowly approaching the Giant Spider Queen.

Shade finished off the spiders that were still moving through the floor with super-charged Light Rays that even fried up their tiny eyes.

As Veronica closed into the Spider Queen, it felt threatened, deciding to jump over the ceiling and moving her body with the extra speed given by 'Charge', pointing her abdomen to Veronica.

Bang! Bang!

Eggs! She began to fire her unborn children, without even having the time to wait for them to hatch, she mercilessly launched them towards Veronica.

"Are you kidding me?" shouted Veronica, as she used her gauntlets to punch away the eggs, but found out that their exterior was rather soft compared to the exoskeleton of the creature inside.

The eggs exploded over her body and released the nightmarish arachnids all over her body, they began to attack her with scratches, bites, and other attacks.

"Begone!" shouted Veronica, as she used her Soul and Phantom Form to release a shockwave of pressure, surrounding her entire body, the spiders were launched away through the air with ease, their minds dizzy and confused by the deadly and shocking display of strength that Veronica showcased!

"Guuuu!" shouted Aqua, raising Veronica's gauntlets, and beginning to smash the spiders through the air, while Veronica evaded the soft-shelled eggs launched by the spider queen.

"It seems that she lacks any type of magic… though she hasn't used her threads yet?" wondered Shade, multi-tasking by absorbing Veronica's Mana and firing Light Rays everywhere, creating a colorful scene in the dark and eerie dungeon.

Veronica felt her HP slowly decreasing, though this was not because of the lesser bites or scratches of the small spiders…

"Wait… she's using that skill? That's why she's just stalking for time!"

The Spider Queen had a special skill that she obtained after evolving into a Rank 6 monster, 'Cursed Eight Eyes'.

Veronica was only capable of seeing the skill when she appraised the spider but was not capable of discerning its function because she had no time to sit there and carefully appraise the skills of her enemy one by one.

However, she knew that it could be related to some kind of curse… it seems that 'Status Effect Immunity' did not affect Curses.

"Crisshaaa!" shouted the Spider Queen, seemingly mocking Veronica as it moved around the ceiling firing eggs with immense precision, while keeping an eye on Veronica at all times!

Veronica evaded the attacks or blew away the eggs with the spiders inside by using her Soul and Phantom Form, while Aqua slain the spiders in the ground and Shade fired Light Rays towards the Spider Queen, trying to blind her for a bit, in hopes of deactivating her Curse!

"My HP is already halfway through… But it's not like I cannot heal back! However, I must be careful with my Mana…" muttered Veronica, jumping over a pile of corpses and voraciously expanding her body over them.

"Absorption Healing!"
