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

-----

(A few minutes ago)

The Hivemind was a resilient entity, after having been handled by Veronica and Ervas quite well, he ended being thrown away into a desertic land where he thought he might be able to escape.

What he didn't expected was that Manationia, the powerful Rainbow Sage that he thought had been weakened enough to not be a threat, had also fallen to the same direction he did, and accompanied by a small phantom clone of Veronica, which quickly helped her not fall to her death.

The desertic land seemed like an empty desert area with barely any living beings on sight, and Veronica's phantom clone looked at the poor and weakened Manationia as she conjured healing spells borrowed from Ervas to heal and cure her wounds.

However, her phantom body was slowly fading away for some reason. Perhaps due to having spent a lot of energy in healing Manationia and also catching her midway through, but it felt as if her connection with the main body was weakening with each passing second, their fight against the Celestial was fierce and it constantly drained the main body power.

"Manationia… Wake up! I don't have much time before I dissipate, so I must bring you to safety…!" said the phantom clone, as she glanced at the tiny octopus there, the familiar spirit that Veronica and Ervas had made for Manationia, which ended rather useless at the end…

"Damn it, wake up!" she cried, as she grabbed Octo and began smacking him over Manationia's head as gently as possible.

SMACK!

"UWAH!"

"AAGGH!"

The two woke up at the same time. Manationia looked at Octo's face, as both suddenly jumped away and found out there was a small girl in front of them resembling Veronica, her body seemed small and weak, she was just a phantom clone after all.

"W-Who are you!?" she asked in shock.

"I am Veronica's phantom clone; I am about to die now but I should be able to bring you to safety- Ah!"

TRUUUMMM…!

But before she could even finish speaking, a tremor happened in the distance as gigantic shadow tentacles began to emerge one after the other from the ground, a gigantic mass of darkness emerged, as weakened as he was, this was the Hivemind's soul which had achieved divinity! Thanks to the prayers of the people brainwashed around the world, he was still receiving constant energy, and was slowly recovering!

"This bastard is still alive?! The main body is busy and in this place there's nobody that can help…" muttered the phantom clone.

"GRUUUAAAH!"

The Hivemind was roaring in anger as he began searching for Manationia, as he had sensed her great amount of magic elsewhere and wanted to snack on her to regain some more power.

"Damn it… Should I sacrifice myself for her to be able to run away some more? No… that won't work…" muttered the Phantom Clone.

She looked back at the weakened Manationia and at Octo, as the clone suddenly had a strange yet interesting idea… If she were to fight, she would easily die, the amount of time she can buy for Manationia is abysmal, and she would get caught.

If she helped her fight, it would also be pointless, and she would die before doing anything to help her too. So… the best option was to simply give all the little power she had to the girl.

It was just a phantom clone, but the phantom clone of a supreme goddess, it was bound to contain energy capable of giving Manationia a last boost in power.

"Manationia… The Hivemind is still alive and searching for you, you must kill it and survive… I am too busy to help you right now, so take this power." said the phantom clone, as she grabbed Octo and stuck it into Manationia's chest, and then, her entire phantasmal body was infused into Manationia and Octo at the same time, fusing herself with the two!

"W-What?! I don't understand what's happening anymore!" cried Manationia in shock, as Octo and her were shrouded in a new amount of energy and power, the two began to be covered with endless waves of phantasmal energies, and divine power, infused into their very souls, something within them awakened!

FLAAAAASH!

A bright light of many colors emerged like a pillar in front of the Hivemind. The Dark God looked at that pillar and realized it could be Manationia! As he quickly began his march towards her while moving his dark tentacles imitating the same walking pattern that Octopus use when they walk in the shores of a beach.

"Huh!?"

However, when the Hivemind got closer to Manationia, what he saw from within the enormous pillar of rainbow light was… a gigantic egg!

"A-An egg?! What is this?"

Manationia and Octo had suddenly been encased in an egg, and the Hivemind couldn't believe why did this just happened…

The egg was white, and had several flame-like patterns of all the colors of the rainbow around it, the egg emanated a strong aura, and seemed to be overflowing everything with it…

The Hivemind knew there was something dangerous going on, if he let her evolve or whatever she was doing, this would be very bad! He decided to simply jump towards the egg and hit it as hard as he could using his tentacles! He was trying to save energy, so he decided to simply materialize his divine soul and hit it hard physically, which cost way less divine energy than conjuring any sort of magical attack.

BOOOOM!

The enormous mass of darkness jumped from the ground and reached the colorful egg, as his gigantic tentacles hit it with a large amount of force!

CLAAAAASH!

The egg was hit by his multiple tentacles, as it… it didn't crack!

And even more, the tentacles of the Hivemind felt as if they hit something harder than rock itself, his entire soul trembled in pain, as he jumped away!

"Uuuaaggh…! W-What the…?! What is this made of?"

Crack…!

However, his plan worked, unexpectedly, as the egg began to show cracks, and started to shatter into pieces.

And from within… a figure covered in bright light emerged.
