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

-----

After the big feast, the split souls had decided to evolve and change Jobs.

Although both of their souls were pseudo-fused all the time now, they were still able to evolve and change jobs separately, which made it so they can increase their power even more. Although in some cases, it could be said that their fusion is most likely equivalent to a Great Deity at the peak, or even… a Supreme Deity.

However, they had recently consumed a lot of soul mass when they created those two Clones named Juliette and Anastacia, which they left supervising their first terraformed planet (and most likely any other astral body close to them).

But when they ate those Heroic Gods accompanying the Heroes and the Battle Popes, the Vampire Progenitors, and the two Demon Gods, they had restored a little bit of such soul density and mass.

Nonetheless, the best way to fully recover was by using all the saved up EXP and Rank Up and evolve!

Veronica's first thing would be to Rank Up, of course, so both split souls quickly flew to their separate Realms within the Divine Realm, Ervas stayed in the depths of a large jungle within Alfheim, while Veronica flew to the dark and abyssal depths of Helheim.

Why was this? Because their evolutions would be most likely way too showy and catastrophic. The last time both made a big fuss and scared a lot of people, so they didn't want to do the same and decided to evolve in separate places.

Veronica checked her levels of accumulated energy or EXP, as the System instructed her, and revealed her something, which was also revealed to Ervas almost at the same time.

"The EXP you accumulate is what I would call excess Primordial Essence. You can spend it to strengthen your body permanently by refining it. This is the process we know as Raking Up and Changing Jobs," said the System.

"EH?!"

Big reveal!

That really came out of nowhere…

What was primordial essence? Well, it was a concept that the split souls and the Samsara System already knew about, but that it hasn't been implemented yet.

"So that essence is actually what everyone gets in Kritias when they rank up, level up, and change jobs?" asked Veronica.

"More or less. Primordial Essence is the essence of our very souls, and it is also the combination of the three primordial energies that maintain and create the elements and everything, and even attribute particles, which are Life Energy, Magic Energy, and Soul Energy. Weak souls are mostly made of Soul Energy, with low levels of Primordial Essence due to it being a more refined form of such energies. However, Gods possess millions, and in your case and Ervas, I would say you have billions…" said the System.

"I see… Wait, so when we kill things and gain EXP, that's Primordial Essence, right?" asked Veronica.

"Yes, when someone defeats an enemy, Kritias System or the Samsara System converts the leftover energy from the slain soul into your own energy, which is stockpiled as Primordial Essence and used as "Experience Points". The Primordial Essence is then added into your soul which distributes it into your body as well, enhancing your entire stats in the process of leveling, which also could be said to be a concept similar to cultivation, from some of the worlds the transmigration cycle is connected with," said the System.

"So that's how it is… So this whole time we were grinding and leveling, it was all by such methods… So there is no such thing as a game-like world, but the System makes it game-like, while the real thing is something more like cultivation… Well, that's interesting… Wait, and what about when we gain EXP by merely existing? Or when a Carpenter gains EXP from their Carpenter Job?" asked Veronica.

"Those are also kind of similar. You see, the System helps people regulate and refine their primordial essence across their souls and bodies when they work hard while doing what their Job is related to, however, the leveling is slow because this process is also slow, this is why Carpenters, Chefs, and other people with such Jobs take years to level up to max level, while adventurers that kill many monsters can do it quickly. The stockpiled Experience Points you possess are excess Primordial Essence waiting to be refined and added into your stats and abilities through the System. By Ranking Up and Changing your Job, you can refine these energies and make them your proper power," said the System.

"Oooh… This is a big info dump, but it is nice to learn this stuff… Did Ervas also learned it?" asked Veronica.

"Yes he has been explained all of this as well," said the System.

"Excellent then… Oh, wait, I wonder… are the stockpiled energy different from that one used for Jobs and Ranking Up?" asked Veronica.

"Oh, yes, both are automatically separated evenly each time you gain some, so there is for Ranking Up and Job Change. Both are essential for your growth, but usually, Job Changes require less energy, so you can do many consecutively, unlike Ranking Up- well, now that you got so much energy, you should be able to Rank Up around five times," said the System.

"Five Times?!" asked Veronica in shock.

"Indeed, and due to your new Divinities, your potential has skyrocketed, so there will be new evolution options to enhance such elements and divinities, even more, your Skills shall also level up considerable through this process, enhancing your strength a lot. You might end at Great Deity of Rank 5, but your power will be comparable to a Supreme Deity after everything is done," said the System.

"Equal to a Supreme Deity… Damn, eating that super Bestellen was really a nice thing to do… I wonder if we are unparalleled in this world now?" wondered Veronica.

"You and Ervas when fused are probably incredibly strong, however, Bestellen has recovered and seems to be recovering itself to his prime, while there are also the other Bright Gods who all seem quite healthy, all of them are equal to Supreme Gods… You'll need some more power even if fused. Bestellen from the Future Kritias was an exception due to the divinities he stole being from these Gods who had already weakened after he defeated them…" said the System.

"So that's how it is…!" said Veronica in surprise.

Indeed, Future Kritias Bestellen's power was not that of all the Bright and Dark Gods combined, as it would have been even bigger if that was the case. Also, he had not devoured nor fused with any of these gods but defeated them, stole their divinities, and sealed them, missing out in their juicy divine energy and primordial essence… Nonetheless, he was a formidable enemy capable of ending the world as he was, so it wasn't as if he was a pushover or something.

However, this means that the current Bestellen could be just as strong as the future one, or perhaps a bit weaker, but if he were to fight with all those at his side, he would certainly be mightier.

The thing is, unlike Future Bestellen who was a raging monster, present Bestellen is not that good at fighting, and so are most of the other Bright Gods…
