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

Chapter 273 - A Strange Vision Of Another World... What Does This Even Means?!



-----

As Veronica watched, Nyx, the Goddess of the Night slowly walked away from her throne after receiving the harsh response from Hades.

​​

"Since when had Nyx been worried about the surface?" wondered Acheron.

"Hm, maybe she had changed before we had realized it," said Thanatos.

"I don't really like to make her feel bad, but I have to be firm with my orders… After all, humans are a race we created to one day surpass us. They're the ones we fought to protect, I am sure that Zeus will guide them, he has a talent with his words…" said Hades.

"Could this be another world? A vision to another world? A world where the Greek Myths exist?" wondered Veronica in awe, as she was suddenly startled by the very voice of her body, a female Hades.

"You're truly an interesting being, are you not? Could you be a parallel me from another plane of existence? I always knew that the cosmos was vaster than the Olympians made it up to be…" said Hades.

"E-Eh? You can see me?" asked Veronica.

"But of course, you've forcefully entered my soul, how could I notice your presence, little one?" asked Hades.

"I have… so much to ask you about… I…!" said Veronica, as she began to dissipate like dust within Hades' soul.

"Sadly, time is up. Perhaps at another time or occasion, we might meet again. For now, I bid you farewell, and here, have a present from me…" said Hades, as she released a small piece of her soul, sharing it with Veronica as her consciousness drifted away.

As Veronica disappeared from within Hades soul, the ruler goddess of the underworld crossed her legs as she sighed, her body was immense, up to five meters, her skin was pale blue and filled with tattoos, and her eyes glowed with a crimson light alongside her long and silky black hair, she wore beautiful black robes with gothic decorations, and her crown was made out of bones and covered in blue flames.

"My lady, who were you talking with?" asked Thanatos.

"Indeed, did you talked with yourself, perhaps?" asked Acheron.

"Hm? Oh, no, I was talking with a visitor from another world. To think that one of them would come inside of my soul to speak to me, was rather cute, so I gave her my Divine Protection. This will also forge a bond with both of us, so she might be able to come back here sooner than I think," said Hades with a smile.

"E-Eh!?" screamed Thanatos, falling into his butt.

"A-Another world visitor?! And it entered your soul, my lady?!" asked Acheron, as his lower jaw fell from his skull.

"Hm? Why are you concerned?" asked Hades.

"My lady… take this more seriously…" muttered Thanatos.

"Eh? It was a mere friend, a little friend from another world. If we ever met them again, we have to be polite so we could forge alliances through worlds. Wouldn't it be fun?" asked Hades.

"My lady… Y-You're serious about this…" muttered Thanatos.

"S-She is…" said Acheron, relocating his lower jawbone on his skull.

"How exciting, this really lifted my mood!" said Hades, as an enormous three-headed bulldog ran towards her, shaking the earth.

"Ah, Cerberus-chan! Come to mama!" said Hades, as the three-headed dog, Cerberus, jumped over her ferociously!

"Woof! Woof! Woof!"

Only, to begin licking her face happily like any good dog would do to their beloved owner.

"Hehe, you're so lively today, Cerberus!" said Hades, hugging her beloved dog.

"Woof! Woof! Woof!"

Just as Veronica's mind and consciousness were drifted elsewhere, she came back to 'reality', opening her phantasmal eyes inside of her castle, glancing at the confused Shade at her side.

"Are you okay? You were suddenly engulfed by blue flames…" said Shade.

"You won't believe what I just saw… I-I was… seemingly sent to another world… Because it is clear that my mind would never be able to fabricate such an intricate view of everything there!" said Veronica.

"W-What?! What did you even see, Veronica?!" asked Shade.

"I was sent to another world… Could it be because of my connection with Hades from that world? But why? Does this Samsara System ever have such a function? Or other things triggered such a thing? Well, it was similar to a dream of sorts… It is… It is all very confusing… Well, the thing is, I was inside of Hade's body, in the Underworld! And Thanatos and Acheron were my servants at my side… and I even spoke with Nyx! Well, not me… But you get it, right?" asked Veronica with a fervent excitement in her phantasmal face.

"I-I… Well… Not really… But I know about Hades, and the rest, you have talked a lot about foreign gods from your original world, so I can kind of get that a bit… Well, to resume it, your mind was sent to a world similar to that of those gods. The… Myth? Greek myth was it?" asked Shade, she and many others had heard of Ervas and Veronica's tales from their original world, and the vast cultures and mythologies that existed within them, a few of them which they were strongly fond of were the Greek Myths and Norse Myths, especially the Greek ones, whose certain entities sometimes took the names of Veronica's races, Skills, and Jobs.

After a few more explanations, Shade grasped the situation a bit more, and Ozgeth, who was sleeping within Veronica's shadow, woke up, quickly hearing a resume of everything from Veronica.

"So your new race is named Hades? Was this what made the connection?! Impressive…" said Shade.

"This…! This! This is amazing, my lady! I could have not expected any less from you! To do such a thing as casually traveling to another world… Not even Ervas-sama had done it, even with his summoner abilities!" said Ozgeth.

"Oh right, I gotta tell everyone later… Ah, come to think about it, I should check the system notifications and… Hm? My soul feels a bit lighter. What is this feeling of renewal?" wondered Veronica, glancing at the various System windows that had popped up since she came back to reality.

Alongside this, she noticed that her armor shape had changed, showing skulls decorations more than any time before, alongside spiky spikes around her shoulders, a bulkier yet refined figure, and her helmet now resembled a helmet made out of bones covered in black metal, and in the center of the crown, there was a blue flame, gently blazing in silence.

Ding!

[Hades' Divine Protection]

The Divine Protection of Hades, the Goddess of the Underworld from another World.

Increases all stats growth, while enhancing any death-related Skill.

"A Hades Skill?! Just like that…! And her Divine Protection to boot! Why was she so generous with a total stranger? …Ah, Hades-sama, I will never forget your kindness…" said Veronica.

"Amazing, my lady! So even that goddess you just met gave you her divine protection? This will greatly boost your growth to even more ridiculous levels, amazing! Simply amazing!" said Ozgeth happily floating around.

"Yeah! …Although I did not get Death Attribute Magic as I would had thought…" said Veronica, saddened to the point that her soul was floating away from her body… well, that could always happen with her.

"Perhaps you might be able to grasp through a Job change, Veronica?" asked Shade with curiosity.

Job Changes brought upon their wielders a lot of benefits, opening their hidden talents and abilities, and even letting them awaken Skills they did not even know they had or were even possible for them.

Much like Ervas had previously acquired the Limited Life Attribute Magic Skill, Veronica was also capable of getting her own Limited Death Attribute Magic Skill!

Or so, she thought.

"Haahh… You are right. Although this really gave me an immense boost in my power, my stats skyrocketed a bit…" said Veronica.

"I wonder if now that you've acquired Hades Divine Protection and a skill named after her, you could be able to get Death Attribute Magic… Though, if you could get Light Attribute Magic, it would be better in my regard, to be honest…" said Shade.

"Hmm… Well, let's see," said Veronica.
