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

Chapter 777 - Manationia VS The Hivemind God 1

-----

The Hivemind had raised into a God! Thanks to the accumulated power from the prayers and beliefs of his cult members around the world and the people they had managed to brainwash and force into his believers, he had accumulated enough power to the point he was able to go through a qualitative and quantitative change.

Although he had to leave his body behind in the process, he gained unprecedented power he had never had before through that sacrifice! Although it would had been way better if the ritual where he could get a powerful vessel would had been completed, this was more than enough for him!

Now that he had gained such incredible power, the only thing left to do was to reabsorb his body, devour the trees, the people, and any living being in the planet, and ultimately assimilate all the planet and become a planet-sized hivemind!

That was his actual goal… but he was quickly stopped by a blazing fist that was fired by Manationia's Spirit Summon, a powerful titan made up of many souls and incredible quantities of magic and spells all combined together.

This titan was so powerful that it could be said to be somewhat of an artificial spirit, a being of incredible power made up of the souls of many combined together and then a lot of magic and spells, it had developed a collective consciousness with all merged souls, and had the intention ton protect and fight for Manationia until the bitter end.

Could this powerful titan be able to fight against the Hivemind that had now turned into a God?

Certainly, there might be a way… but it all depended in how Manationia played her cards right.

"Manationia! This is crazy! Do you really plan to engage in a fight against this monster?! Y-You'll die!" cried Octo.

The artificial spirit made to guide Manationia by Veronica and Ervas was growing quite restless! Manationia was being way too reckless, and this was worrying him beyond belief, this was bad! He really didn't wanted Manationia to waste her life like this.

If she could just listen to him and sit down to wait for reinforcements… But she didn't listen! Was she some sort of Shonen main character?

"I am not dying… I told you already that I was going to get through this on my own, I won't die!" said Manationia.

Octo was left surprised, this little spirit that had been guiding Manationia this entire time had never seen the girl so filled with such powerful conviction before, this was utterly in another level.

However, Manationia's expression seemed unwavering, she had a strong conviction in her eyes that Octo couldn't shake away! Was this his fault? After all, he had helped her and forged her to become such a valiant girl to an extent…

"Octo, it's not just because of pride or foolishness, do you want me to sit and wait for someone to come save us when that monster was about to devour all the innocent people in the Duchy down below? This is the reason I also brought him to the skies using that long-ranged punch attack…" said Manationia.

Octo's only eye opened wide as he realized that every movement made by Manationia was actually calculated and had a big purpose behind them… she wasn't doing this recklessly, she had taken into consideration things and decided to go all out against this monster atop the skies.

Probably her intention wasn't even fighting it to the death but distracting it and make time, so the real fighters arrive, the ones that had once gifted her that fruit that changed her entire life, Veronica and Ervas were going to soon arrive, according to Octo, so until then, she had to hold on into the Hivemind, not let it just rampage everywhere while she sat down and watched everything she ever loved being destroyed.

After all, maybe as if she were indirectly inheriting the dreams of the Red Sage and the Gray Sage, she wanted to protect all the people of this Duchy, not let them die hopelessly… she wanted to use her power to protect the life of this world, the precious life that this horrendous aberration wanted to devour gluttonously and without caring about anything else…

"I won't let innocent people die out in vain… I'll stop this thing here!" said Manationia.

"Manationia…" sighed Octo. He quickly realized that he was the flawed one for thinking that the lives of the people down there were not valuable enough to be saved, that they were not worth risking one's life for…

The hivemind roared back at Manationia, as he pointed out his tentacles at her as if she were his greatest enemy of all time! The hate he had against her was of such lengths that he considered her a nemesis! Even thought Manationia barely considered him a lunatic monster…

"You! You're the one that attacked in your dreams! You dared attack me when I offered you everything!" roared the Hivemind.

"Everything?! When I declined you tried to attack me first! Did you expected me to sit there and let you kill me? How stupid can you get? Living beings will always try to fight or run away from those attempting to kill them, duh…" said Manationia, she mocked the Hivemind's lack of self-awareness and also the lack of empathy he had!

He was so empathy-less that he couldn't believe somebody else would ever try to harm him because they wanted to defend themselves, immediately thinking that they were the evil ones here for daring to go against his glorious being.

"Hmph! You little ant, I will get done with you in no time… And then I shall feast!" laughed the Hivemind, his entire darkness spread all around as gigantic spears made of shadows began to fall over Manationia and her titan in an instant, they were thousands, and each one at least ten-meter sin length! They were more than capable of piercing through a giant building and slicing it in half!

FLASH! FLASH! FLASH! FLASH!
