Reincarnated With A Glitched System: Why Is My MP Not Running Out?

Chapter 836 Reaching The Last Destination

-----

"To be… killed by this… pathetic… human… Ungh…"

His last words ended with his entire body falling apart over the bloody forest floor. Ugh, my entire body ended covered on bug juice too.

"I gave him three chances, I think that was fair, right?" I sighed.

"I guess so, these demons seem to be hell-bent on barbaric acts, they are not deserving of any pity or mercy, in my opinion." Alice said.

"They're different than my Insectoid Tribe, and the related ones." Beelzebub suddenly commented. "They're monstrous and seem to have shit for brains! They're weird, any other normal demon would had run away in his situation… Well, it often also depends in their own convictions, but still…"

"Well, he's definitely nor a normal demon, he is one of those born in the Swarm." Furoh explained, appearing above me. "They're more monsters than demons."

"Whatever's the case, we should go help out everyone else while we can." I said.

No matter how much I searched while slaying the monsters, I couldn't detect any Dimensional Stone, all these Sandworm Monsters came all the way here on their own, surprisingly…

The rest were all Tier 7, when our strength was combined, even an army of over twenty Tier 7 Sandworms died after just half an hour.

I tried capturing one alive, but they were so big and strong that any chain or binding spell was broken in seconds… Bringing a creature like that inside my Dungeon would had been hellish, and later, the Dungeon System told me the dungeon wouldn't had been able to assimilate it anyways, welp.

Ding!

Wow, Sandworms give much more EXP than the usual giant insects from the Swarm, even if they're in a similar Tier… Is it because they're more ancient monsters? I guess these guys were most likely mind controlled or enslaved by Gregeronth or something and weren't exactly born out of the Swarm.

Wait, does this means that Arachne is most likely cutting down on costs now? Maybe she knows we're approaching and is preparing everything she can to greet us with a big feast of EXP.

Meanwhile, this guy most likely came to attack us by himself…

After storing all the monster corpses, and feeding some of them to my Dungeon's Monsters, we finally regrouped to have breakfast… It was a wild way to start the morning.

"Well done, everyone, you've certainly grown stronger." My father congratulated us. "A-Also, I didn't expected Sylphy to be able to solo a Tier 8 being yet…"

"Maybe this one was easier, but I suspect that other Tier 8 monsters might be even stronger if they're much older." I sighed. "I wouldn't give myself much credit, this demon was most likely recently born from the Swarm Summoning Powers Arachne has, dad."

"R-Right." He nodded nervously. "Still, that was amazing… I wonder if you'll surpass me by the time you reach the age of 18…"

"Nah, you'll still be the strongest, dad!" I giggled.

"I don't know if I should take that as a compliment or as irony… But I'm really happy to see you grow this much." He sighed with pride, shedding a small tear. "My little Sylphy is all a big and strong hero now…"

"I-I haven't even reached 14 yet…" I facepalmed. "Anyways, there wasn't any Dimensional Stone though."

"Yeah, I checked as well, it was weird." Said Shade. "It seems that demon came by his own accord and brought Sandworms that might be living near the faraway desert."

"There's a desert in this continent?" Aquarina asked.

"Yeah, to the faraway wastelands of the north." Shade nodded. "It is a dangerous place, dominated by powerful Monsters… But that's not our destination, Arachne, however, might be nearby, based in how we're moving with your compass help."

"I see…" I nodded. "Well, we're getting really close. I think we might arrive at her territory today if we hurry up. We need to prepare for what's to come."

"Well, if she didn't let him summon her endless army of bugs, I'm assuming she might be growing short on supplies or resources…" Uncle Arafunn analyzed. "I think Arachne might be trying her hardest to amass as much power to greet us, already having figured we were coming for her by now."

"I think the same, uncle." I drank some tea. "Let's make sure to have everything prepared before departing! I'll go make some more elixirs to refill ourselves, as we're growing lower in quantity. Everyone should at least have ten of each in their Spatial Pouches, alright?"

I quickly ran upstairs to prepare the Elixirs to heal both HP and MP, which I was able to make using materials and herbs I had gathered back in Agartha's Emerald Forest, combined with the special fruits and vegetables I can create using skills, such as the Divine Fruit of Knowledge, the Leaf of Life and Mana Fruit from Naturia, and the Potatoes and Radishes from my Harvest Familiars.

"W-Wait Sylphy, you haven't finished your pancakes yet!" Aquarina chased me down while carrying my plate behind me.

"I'll finish the while preparing the elixirs! Come help me out!" I said.

"Geez… Fine!" She sighed.

Like that, we prepared all we could, and once all things were said and done, we flew across the skies over Arafunn's Familiar, Tempest, the huge eagle.

After a few hours of traveling, the rather plain-looking scenario of our surroundings changed. The terrain darkened, as several lakes and ponds of miasma appeared one after another.

And the origin of all this Miasma was a large, ruined temple that had become a dungeon, where I could sense Lara's presence inside, and also, where Arachne most likely was…

"We're finally here…"

RUMBLE!

And right as we arrived, the ground down below shook!
