Surrounding a bonfire in the middle of a clear night, where the moon was gleaming brightly over the dark sky, an odd party sat down in wooden logs recently cut from nearby trees.

There was a beautiful lady that was wearing an exotic dark and scarlet armor that was oddly tight to her body, however, further, inspection revealed that her head was rather transparent, made out of phantom, she was a Living Armor, Veronica.

She was energetically eating a steamed sweet potato stuck in a branch being held with her right hand, while her left hand was holding a piece of dried meat.

"This is godly," she said.

"It seems that you have differed a lot from me, you have become quite the food fanatic. Well, I can't say that I don't like eating delicious food either…" said a young toddler on his two years of age telepathically, he had large crimson eyes that glared deeply in the soul of others, and silky black hair with a few white strands, if one could see in more detail, a small black horn could be noticed on its forehead, being covered by his hair, he was a Half-Demon boy, Ervas.

He was currently eating the large leg of a Giant Demon Rat which was grilled to perfection, it leaked delicious greasy juices, and it was covered in small aromatic herbs.

"Food fanatic? Well, you didn't experience being an undead, you feel surprisingly hollow inside??? eating makes me feel alive," said Veronica.

"I see, I understand how it is… although you're indeed, literally hollow, you're a living armor," said Ervas.

"I know, I know, you don't need to remind me," said Veronica, waving her hands while eating the rest of the steamed sweet potato.

Although they seemed like incredibly different beings, not related at all… they were two halves of the same soul.

After defeating all the mercenaries, the group escaped the village and have been flying at a moderately fast speed through an entire day, finally deciding to rest.

Ervas shared his large amount of Mana with Veronica, and she held most of the party with her body by extending it like liquid metal using 'Body Form Transformation', managing to fly by only using one person with the less amount of Mana spent. Still, the amount spent was exorbitant, surpassing the three hundred thousand, however, Ervas kept increasing his Mana as they advanced, as of now, he had surpassed three million.

Through the trip, Veronica and Ervas explained some things to the rest of the party. Veronica revealed to Shade that she and Ervas were once the same soul and a lot of other things. Each other party shared their experiences until now.

Ervas was rather frightened about Veronica's birth and how she had to fight a whole army of Living Armors to survive while he only hid in the comfy house of a village.

Meanwhile, Veronica envied Ervas nice two years of peace… although the part where his mother had to escape was rather sad.

"Well, you kind of had a nice two years of life at least… I was just recently born a month ago in the Dungeon, it was a hell of a month, right, Shade, Aqua?" said Veronica.

"It was quite filled with challenges, but Veronica is a strong and uplifting individual, so the atmosphere was always lighted by her personality," said Shade.

"Guuburuu!" said Aqua, bouncing.

"Ah… I guess they do not agree with me. Am I that uplifting? I used to be quite gloomy…" muttered Veronica.

"Yes, you are quite uplifting, sometimes due to this, you take things too easy, well, you're still cautious enough," said Shade, nodding with his spherical body.

"Guubububu!" said Aqua, eating carrots.

Ervas released a mild smile, although it was quite hard for him.

"I do remember being quite gloomy as well. Well, am I still quite gloomy now… though I can say that I am a very uplifting person?" Ervas said.

"My son… You are as stiff as a doll… well, you're still my beloved Ervas… but… your expressionlessness is often concerning," admitted Jason, sipping on the tea they stole from the mercenaries, there were a few leaves in a leather pouch they had, it seems that the boss enjoyed pricy delicacies.

"…Eh? Is that so…?" muttered Ervas, becoming saddened.

"Ah! But don't worry, your personality is as radiant as a sun!" said Jason.

"T-That's right, what's matter is in the inside, not the outside!" said Veronica.

"Y-Yeah, what they said," said Shade.

Ervas glanced at the ground and then sighed.

"You don't have to try so hard to make me happy, I clearly understand what is happening to me…" muttered Ervas.

"But thanks, I appreciate your concern," added Ervas.

As they continued eating and enjoying the warm bonfire, Jason asked another question.

"Err… I wonder… if my son and Veronica used to be the same person, and your souls were split in half by that crazy God… then, could it be possible that your emotions were split as well? As Ervas said before, emotions and memories originate from the soul and are stored in the head, right?" asked Jason, revealing his deep thoughtfulness. Despite his personality and appearances, he was quite the sharp man.

Ervas and Veronica fell silent.

"That's right, Jason, you have a point, that may be what happened… If your emotions were split and stored in each split soul, which ended becoming a soul of their own, the remaining emotions might have increased in length to fill in the void of the emotions that you lack, and perhaps to emulate them to an extent… It is rather complicated and I am not really an expert in souls, so don't take my words for granted" said Shade.

However, Veronica and Ervas nodded in agreement.

"That's right!" shouted Veronica.

"It should be that," said Ervas, calmly nodding.

"Well, it's not like we can do much about it… I don't think it's possible to merge our souls by now… we have become too different from each other," said Veronica.

"Indeed, we are rather different now. Especially because I lived two years in here, and developed my mind differently through that time, while you were just recently born… we are more like different persons with the same memories… even our fighting styles and abilities developed differently, and our spirit affinities differ as well, it's a bit fascinating to analyze. To put it simply, I never imagined that I would end up developing the Unarmed Fighting Technique to the extent that you had done it," said Ervas.

"I have to admit that I never expected that I would develop such an immense affinity with plants like you did, you got a whole army of them! Yet… it doesn't count as Tamer to the System for some reason?" asked Veronica.

"Indeed, they don't count as conventional monsters. Hence why I have not acquired the Tame skill that you possess. Aqua and Charlotte are very strong companions as well. Hopefully, they can get well together with my Ivy, Gwendolyn, and the rest," said Ervas.

As Ervas say so, his plants emerged from the woods and greeted Aqua and Charlotte.

They seemed to do well together… though the plants seemed attracted to Aqua because she was a Water Slime, and plants naturally liked water.

"Guubu…" muttered Aqua, as the plants embraced her, slowly absorbing her water.

"Look how much they love each other," said Ervas.

"I think they're sucking her water… Please tell them to stop" said Veronica.

"…Eh? Really? Okay, stop," ordered Ervas, as his plants moved to his side and entangled around his body.

Suddenly, sticky grass began to speak to his ears.

"Oh? Right, Gwendolyn is with the guy we captured, we should extract his info out," said Ervas.

Veronica put her arms on her waist.

"And how are you planning that? Is there even a way to inspect his mind without torturing him to make him spit the information?" said Veronica.

"Aside from torture, through these two years, I've learned a lot about the mind. By using my Mana Waves combined with 'Special Five Senses' and 'Memory Retention', it is possible to inspect other's minds… but I should change Jobs to make it more precise," said Ervas.

"Oh, I see! I have practiced the same thing, but I am still an apprentice in that field! …And what Job are you talking about?" said Veronica.

"It's named Mind Dweller. Pretty interesting, right?" said Ervas with a mild smile.

"That sounds terrifying…"

"Well, yeah…"
