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

Chapter 343 - Coexistence Between Races?!



??

"Eh? It was to pay for everyone instantly, it should work, right?" asked Veronica.

"…Yes, but it also called for a lot of attention," said Ervas.

"Isn\'t that the point of this? If we call attention, the aristocrats will sooner or later find us, which is what we want," said Veronica.

"Oh! You\'re right… so it was all your plan," said Ervas, glancing at Veronica with admiration.

"Yeaaah… It was all part of the plan! (Perfect, now he will not realize that I just did it without thinking!)" said Veronica.

"So many different people… this place is even more varied than our Kingdom…" said Gaius in shock.

"Yeah, there are Cat-kin, Dog-kin, Werewolves… even harpies with bird heads?" wondered Azra, pointing at bird-like humanoids or humanoid-like birds, who barely resembled harpies but whose bodies, unlike actual Harpies, were covered in feathers, they also had wings behind their backs, and had arms similar to their sharp talons covered in feathers, their figures were tall and muscular, and their eyes were sharp like eagles, with large beaks that could easily tear apart flesh.

"Those are Aarakocra, a species of Demon, I believe. It seems that these are of a tribe that resembles coastal eagles… They most likely live around the coast of the continent," said Veronica, she held great knowledge about many races of demons and beast-kin due to her previous life education.

The streets were bursting with people, humans, elves, dwarves, beast-kin, and demons, with the last two species being the most varied in appearances, it seemed like a utopia for many of those that we\'re unaware of the injustices being committed behind the scenes.

The party decided to walk around for a while, exploring most of the streets of the area near the entrance.

At some point, they reached an area named \'Red Light District\', where many people of different races sold food from their own cultures through small stands.

"This is really like a dream…" said Ervas as he was eating what seemed to be a tortilla wrapped around meat and vegetables, which was also covered in a delicious spicy sauce.

"Hmm~ I cannot get enough of this food," said Veronica, eating several sticks of skewered meat and sandwiches with fried fish and potatoes, alongside a delicious alcoholic drink made by Monkey-kin Beast-people, which was made of delicious tropical fruits.

The rest of the party was also enjoying their instance for the moment, many of them buying more and more food, as they had a lot of money, especially because Veronica could easily create a piece of gold to pay people for it… which she did without a problem, leaving many of the food stalls in shock.

"Missy are you certain!? T-This is a large gold nugget! It even has a lot of magically charged in…" said a young Monkey-kin girl that was selling the alcoholic fruit drinks.

"Yeah keep the charge dear, oh, I will be taking this one too~," said Veronica, as she grabbed a large jug filled with this alcoholic drink and saving it inside of her soul in the blink of an eye.

"Y-You even have Spatial Magic…!" said the monkey girl.

"Make sure to keep it a secret okay?" asked Veronica.

"O-Okay… Although I don\'t think it will be easy, seeing how everyone else is watching…" said the girl.

"Ohohoho!" laughed Veronica, as she walked away.

"What\'s wrong with that Vampire chick?" wondered the father of the girl, a Monkey-kin man.

"S-She was clearly something else…" said the girl.

"I think we had called a lot of attention now… Maybe too much," said Ervas.

"Yeah, maybe we should have to go to trade these ores first and use actual money," said Anna.

"Well, isn\'t their money Gold, Silver, and Bronze? That Veronica can just produce them out of thin air is not really her problem," said Kireina.

"Wouldn\'t giving so much of these precious materials around devalue the money?" wondered Jason.

"Yes, it will most likely do," said Gaius.

"Nah, it\'s fine…! Oh, would you look at that, it night already!" said Veronica, as she noticed that the night had finally come, and the beautiful starry night and the shining moon illuminated the city.

"Should we go spend the night in a hotel? Oh, I know a fairly good one where we spent last night with Ditoyle," said Kireina.

"It is especially good if you want to have fun at night, the beds are very fluffy and soft, and they even give lotion for free!" said Ditoyle.

"…Not interested," said Ervas.

"Y-Yeah… I don\'t think this is our intention in here…" said Veronica.

"Eh? I kind of liked the idea~" said Anna.

"W-We doesn\'t need to go to a hotel for that…" said Veronica rather shyly.

"It wouldn\'t be fun though~," said Anna, murmuring near Veronica\'s ears as they turned red.

"Then what? Are you going to buy a house or something?" asked Kireina, interrupting the girl\'s lewd thoughts.

"That\'s the plan, we\'ll sell this sack of ores and buy a manor or something," said Ervas.

"You guys clearly don\'t have an idea on how these things are done, right? You don\'t simply get money and buy a manor like nothing…" said the Percy Miller, who emerged from Veronica\'s shadow while they were resting at the back of a street without not many people to see.

"Oh, does Percy knows about this stuff?" asked Kireina.

"Yeah, to own such a big place you first need a document that you own such territory, and even then, you will also need to most likely be registered as a citizen… I don\'t know how far a ton of money can get you through…" said Percy, six months had passed since he was captured, and he was now quite the loyal ally of Ervas and Veronica, his knowledge about the societies and customs of this continent were quite valuable in scenarios like these.

"Exactly! My son is right, this whole place is run by aristocrats, using simple money without having proper documents and other things will not do," said Albert Miller\'s ghost, appearing at the side of Ervas.

"I see, what should we do then?" wondered Ervas.

"Hm, is there a place where you can sell items, like a large merchant of the building?" wondered Percy.

"Yes, there is one near the Adventurers Guild, it also works as a bank for citizens…" said Kireina.

"Oh, that\'s perfect then, please, Kireina, lead the way," said Percy.

"Alright then! Let\'s go!" said Kireina with Ditoyle at her side.

"What are we going to do there? Can we get documents done in that place?" wondered Veronica.

"It should be possible, if they see that you own a ton of money, they might want you to become a citizen to hold power over you. And because you have so much money and talent, they will most likely want to make things swifter, so we might even get all registered as citizens in the get-go," said Percy Miller.

"Leave the negotiations to my son, he has always been very talented with words!" said Albert\'s ghost while floating around.

A few months ago, Ervas and Veronica had the desire of breaking his soul due to the things he did in the past, but due to Percy\'s request, they forgave his life in exchange for serving them with everything he had.

The party quickly walked through the large streets, however, they were quickly stopped by a group of shady-looking people with knives and short swords on their hands.

"Oi, not a single step! You\'re crossing through our boss territory!" said a Wild Cat-kin Beast-man.

"Damn they got pretty hot chicks, maybe we could sell them and make a fortune," said a gray-colored Mouse-kin Beast-man.

"Don\'t resist… Or I will scream… Buhihi…" said a pale-looking elf-looking man with black-colored tear-shaped tattoos below his saddened eyes, he had long black hair and purple eyes, a young male Banshee.

"Man, this is the second time we come across thugs, what\'s up with this place?" wondered Veronica.

"I would guess that alongside a lot of splendor and beauty, the city is big enough for a rather big amount of criminal organizations going on in here," said Ervas.

"Should we wreck them?" asked Leonidas while cracking his fists.

"Go ahead, don\'t kill them though," said Ervas.

"Sure thing boss," said Gaius.

"Oi, that you\'re big doesn\'t mean that you can beat us or something- GEH…!"

The Wild Cat-kin beast-man was grabbed by the neck by Leonidas, whose eyes gleamed eerily.

"Nnnggaaahhh…! I can\'t… breatheee… uuggh…! Stop, stop…!" cried the cat-kin, as he tried to stab Leonida\'s muscular arms with his knife, but the knife simply broke apart before it could even penetrate his skin.

His emerald eyes quickly began to fall into despair.

"P-Please… Gueeegh…"

The cat-kin suddenly fell unconscious due to lack of oxygen, as Leonidas threw him into the floor.

Gaius had already beaten unconscious the mouse-kin with a single punch into the chin, and the rest of the gang went flying away without saying another word the moment they saw the two drop into the floor.

"What should we do with these guys?" wondered Kireina.

"Let\'s ask them a few questions when they wake up~," said Veronica, grabbing the two men and putting them inside of her soul for later interrogation.

The thugs kept running through the streets until they finally thought that they had lost the group of people they had tried to assault…

"H-Holy shit…"

"What were those guys all about?!"

"Were they Adventurers?"

"Balto and Dako used to be E-Rank Adventurers! No way in hell they would had lost so easily…" said one of the men, referring to the cat-kin and mouse-kin captured by Veronica.

"Oh right…"

"I guess we shouldn\'t mess with them…"

"But for real are those thugs new?"

"I don\'t remember seeing them around, I thought they were tourists!"

"We should still tell the boss…"

"Yeah, let\'s go!"

The group then ran through another route, running towards their Boss…
