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

-----

Jason had prepared horned rabbit and carrot soup for dinner, and Ervas was happily digging in by manipulating a spoon with 'Telekinesis'. ??

Jason had already been accustomed to his son using this kind of magic, but he never thought it more than that… to just be able to move little things around.

He had expected his son to one day develop it and become a strong mage… but he never expected that his son was already a strong mage at his two years of age!

"This soup is delicious… but it needs some salt…" muttered Ervas.

"Salt…? You have never seen salt, yet you know about it… you really did have a life before, don't you?" asked Jason.

"Indeed, father. Is salt expensive?" asked Ervas.

"Yes… it is very expensive… I don't think we will ever taste salt, my son…" muttered Jason.

"Don't say that. One day we will all have a nice and delicious dinner filled with flavors. I promise you" said Ervas, sipping more of the soup.

"My son… sigh, it should be me the one telling you that…" muttered Jason, with a mild smile.

Ervas was sitting over Jason's lap while drinking the soup with a floating spoon, Jason was doing the same with a wooden spoon.

"So to resume everything… you were once the Demon Queen…? T-This is hard to believe… Does it feel weird to have the body of a boy now?" asked Jason.

"Hmm… I have not thought about that. I do not know, it feels… okay? It may be because my hormones and sexual organs have not developed yet. In my past life, I felt attracted to both men and women, so I will probably have a girlfriend in the future, if that suits you well, father" said Ervas, already having some plans for his future as a boy.

"Haha… you've already thought that far? Well, I would not mind that one day you could bless me with a grandchild… but it is too early to even consider that. Forgive my previous words, you know that I often talk stupid things when I am nervous…" muttered Jason.

"I can tell. I am quite nervous as well; this is my first time openly talking with you." Said Ervas.

Jason glanced at the doll-like expression of Ervas, he did not seem nervous at all.

"Ah, you don't seem nervous at all, my son… Anyways… phew… I-I… well… Sigh, this is hard to handle…" said Jason.

Ervas detected Jason's discomfort and patted his muscular arms.

"Don't get so nervous, everything will be okay." Said Ervas.

"Haha… you're so mature already, it seems that I am the immature one in here… But no! I won't accept this, my son! I will be the one that shall bring you happiness first!" said Jason, spirited.

"What do you mean?" asked Ervas.

"We will escape the village… and we will cross to the demon continent, where your mother and her family should be! I swear it by my two arms!" said Jason.

"Meet with mother? Really?" asked Ervas.

"Yes! And I will… work hard, I will not give in… I have a few pennies saved up; it should be enough to bring us there…" muttered Jason.

"You're really a brave man, father. I appreciate your concern, but you are not alone in this. I am not a defenseless child… We will work together to reach that goal" said Ervas.

Jason caressed Ervas's silky black hair.

"I just… don't want to be a burden… father was always a farmer, his entire life… but these two arms, are strong by always tending the crops every day. I will make sure to put them to good use to help you out. You're an incredibly talented mage already, but you're still a frail two-year-old child" said Jason.

"That's… true. But father, if you want to grow stronger, I can help you out" said Ervas.

"You can? How?" asked Jason.

"Well, I can help you awaken your magic talent, and also to learn Spirit Magic and befriend your own spirit. I could also connect my mana flow with you and teach you No-Attribute Magic and even transfer some of my memories so you can learn Unarmed Fighting Technique, Shield Technique, Rapier Technique, or Armor Technique… though we don't have any equipment other than the hoe you use for the crops" said Ervas, enlightening his father.

"What? You can transfer me your memories?!" asked Jason, bewildered.

"Hmm… not exactly. I cannot really do that completely. By combining 'Memory Retention', 'Special Five Senses', and the mana waves that I can create, I can transfer you… how to call it? Information, or Experience about how I learned such techniques or skills in my past life. You won't see my complete memories… but you may see some small fragments around, but it is nothing that I might be ashamed of" said Ervas.

"I see… you really were the Demon Queen in your past life, right?" asked Jason.

"Well, of course… though I was the weakest in history." Lamented Ervas.

"The weakest in history?! You? But you are so strong already! You could even join the Mage Guild and receive a high position with the level of your magic skill alone!" said Jason.

"Haha… that might be true in a small medium-sized kingdom such as Aquaria… but in the Demon Nation where I was born… everyone was absurdly strong, and mages such as me weren't as well recognized and appreciated as the more destructive type of wizards or herculean physical fighters," said Ervas.

"I see… it must have been rough… was your father with you at the very least?" asked Jason.

"No, he wasn't. He died when I was still a baby in the war against the Light Hero, alongside my mother, an Elf" said Ervas, recalling his previous life.

"War against the Light Hero? Has that happened in the past? I don't have any idea… well, I was raised in just a village, I have never entered a library neither meet with a bishop of the church to ask him about history" said Jason.

'I wonder if I should tell father about my theory that this is a parallel world of my past life, set a few thousand years in the past…' thought Ervas as he drank the last bit of soup.

"Can I have seconds?" asked Ervas.

"Oh? It must be your Demon Metabolism that lets you eat more than your size… Alright, you're growing so you need a lot of energy" said Jason, grabbing the plate and filling it with more soup, big chunks of carrots and small pieces of rabbit meat floated over the aromatic soup, there were some herbs added into the mix, which gave the often plain soup a bit of flavor.

"At first, I was really worried that you couldn't receive your mother's milk, but it seems that your Demon Metabolism lets you feed yourself with soup made out of carrots and meat well enough," said Jason.

"Yes, we Demons are a bit different than Humans, we can grow faster and digest things better… Demon Metabolism was a skill that I lacked in my past life though, this might be because I was a half-elf demon instead of a half-human demon… Perhaps this special ability is showcased as a skill when I am a half-human demon." Analyzed Ervas.

"I-I see... you're really a thoughtful kid, son," said Jason.

"Ah, sorry about that, I might have gone into too much detail. Hm? I see…" said Ervas.

"Oh? Is Gaia talking with you?" asked Jason.

"Yes, well, sort of. She says that the people outside had already gone away… and that the plants I have outside begun to change…" said Ervas.

"Begun to change? Plants? Son, you didn't talk to me about that…" muttered Jason.

"Ah right, I've 'tamed' a few plants. This way I have been killing Horned Rabbits and Demon Rats. I have already changed Jobs twice." Said Ervas.

"I see… wait, what? You have been killing so many monsters? And changed jobs?! But how? There isn't a Job Changing Crystal here!" said Jason.

"Oh, well, it's one of my small perks," said Ervas.
