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

-----

The Celestial's bright presence was so strong that it seemed to become a blinding sun atop the planet, his light was way too intense, making all living beings avert their gaze from the sky in pain!

His ray of judgement reached Veronica in an instant, as it sliced through her phantasmal hand, he had actually missed because he fired his attack casually!

Nonetheless, the attack by itself was incredibly painful for Veronica. She had never felt this much pain in a long time, in fact since her battle against the Demon God King in Kritias to decide its fate that she had not felt this much pain before.

A flash of bright light came rushing from the skies, piercing through Veronica's phantasmal arm in an instant and slashing it! Such an event surprised her greatly, as the explosion of powerful soul divinity made her scream.

BOOOOOMMM!!!

"Unnggh?! T-This burning power…! Aaagh!" cried Veronica.

Veronica tried to retreat and see what had attacked her, without realizing that Manationia and Octo didn't managed to get inside the divine realm and fell! However, she quickly detached a part of her soul which shaped into one of her clones, which flew downwards to rescue them, all while the rest of the group looked into the skies in terror of what had happened, of the monster that had emerged!

Even Ervas noticed the enormous power coming from the skies, this enormous power that could completely make everything lesser, it seemed to be in another level completely from anything he had ever fought and seen before, yet it was very familiar somehow… This was actually completely unrelated to the Hivemind! What was just happening now? Who was this?

"Mom!" cried Kuro.

The living armor Arachne daughter of Veronica flew towards her mother as she saw her soul, which had been damaged rather badly! Her crimson-red eyes were filled with horror as she saw her mother gritting her teeth in shock and pain, a scene she had not seen before in a long time… The damage was clear in the very wound inside of her mother's soul as well. The wound was leaking Primordial Essence as if it were blood, bleeding it out horrendously. Kuro couldn't help btu feel utter horror as she saw her mother in such a state.

"Mother… Mother!" she cried.

"Ungh… I-I am okay, don't worry… But this thing… Stay behind me, Kuro! Don't move an inch… This monster… something completely out of our reach had showed up…" said Veronica while gritting her teeth.

"What? What is happening?" asked Kuro desperately, everything seemed to be going so fine until things went down out of nowhere by a completely unexpected factor.

"W-What in the world?!" asked Anastacia. "What is this terrifying presence?!"

Anastacia quickly took back her gigantic bat form, shrouding herself in darkness and blood energy to resist this enormous burning light coming from the skies. She looked upwards in surprise and horror, without being able to believe what she was seeing.

Within her mind, the memories of Hekaton which the original bodies that created her had transferred to her suddenly surged, realizing that this being… this being could quite possibly be related to that bastard they ate long ago!

"I-It's coming from the skies…" said Juliette. "No! It is coming from the outer space!"

Juliette had also taken into her sheep form to protect herself, in such a titanic form, her power was enhanced greatly, and she would be able to resist the damage dealt by the light alone at the very least.

She looked upwards in surprise and awe at the situation, she knew something terrifying was emerging, but she didn't knew what exactly it was until her mind quickly made the connections similarly to Anastacia.

She easily realized that the menace from outer space was a being related to Hekaton as well!

"Outer space?!" asked Veronica. "What kind of joke is this?"

Veronica gritted her teeth as she quickly began to regenerate her wounded phantasmal arm, but realized that within the wound there was bright particles that slowly were burning through her soul with ease. She decided to slice through the entire chunk of soul surrounding it!

SLASH!

"Ugh…"

"Mom! W-What are you doing?!"

Kuro looked at her mother severing her own divine soul.

"Don't worry, this is nothing, dear…" said Veronica.

Veronica quickly devoured the chunk she sliced using Gluttony Goddess, and absorbed back most of the power, while beginning to inspect, analyze, and attempt to assimilate this strange particle of power that this entity was emanating.

She was a being that could analyze and assimilate all sorts of materials and even energies now, just like she used to do it when she was but a rusty living armor, such powers had evolved several times now and reached completely amazing levels.

Using the help of the System, she quickly began to analyze things through at utmost detail, this sort of particles of light that could consume souls were part of this enemy's powers, if she could analyze them, she might find a weakness!

This was Veronica's amazing thought process, it was incredibly fast and efficient, in mere splits of a second, she was already finding ways to counterattack this terrifying new enemy, without even having confronted it yet.

"This power… What is this incredible Soul-Attribute divinity- No, this is not just a divinity!" said Aurora in utter shock.

She looked upwards as her eyes shone brightly while admiring such a beautiful light, it was so beautiful yet so dangerously powerful, it made her tremble, but not in excitement, but in her innermost fear!

Nonetheless, she couldn't possibly confront a being while trembling, as she armed herself with bravery and swallowed her saliva while looking at this entity emerge.

Veronica, Ervas, and everyone else looked upwards, as they saw an enormously bright light surging from outer space, which began to shine so brightly it burned through anything!

This powerful holy light contained the major element of the Soul Attribute engraved within, and it was incredibly powerful by itself, so powerful it even was able to slice through Veronica's phantasmal arm with ease.
