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

286 The Memories Of A Demon Lord —–

Beelzebub sighed, as he seemed to slowly get better, his size slowly increased a bit more, but not as big as before. For some reason his eyes were clearer now, and I felt a strange connection... Ah, it was with his soul! Did he accepted? It seems I convinced him! ????????????????????????????. ????o????

“Ahh! Beelzebub! You accepted!” I cried, running to his side and hugging his body.

“U-Uagh! W-Why are you hugging me? Aren’t I disgusting?!” He cried. “You’re a little girl, shouldn’t you be disgusted by bugs?”

“What? We eat bugs in my home!” I said.

“Eeeeeh?!”

“Father sometimes bring Giant Venom Tarantulas. If you boil their legs with some salt, the meat inside is very tasty! And also there are those Giant Brown Scarabs, they got some meaty legs, and their interior can become a nice soup... It tastes like crab!” I said.

“T-That’s not as reassuring!” He cried. “B-But I guess you’re a weird bug-eating girl... Just make sure to not eat me... And give me some personal space. I am not into... getting touchy with people.” Beelzebub said, as he gently pushed me back.

“Okay, sorry...” I said. I petted his head and felt the smoothness of his exoskeleton. It was very nice, just as I imagined. And his big eyeballs were also strangely soft.

.....

“H-Hey! I told you to not touch me so much! Uagh, it tickles, not my eyeballs! I keep them clean...” he sighed, using his leg’s hairs to clean his eyes like normal flies do.

“Haha! Sorry...” I sighed. “But are you okay now?” I wondered.

“Yes. I... I just need time to think about this but... You should infuse Mana into my body so I can complete the contract...” He said.

“Okay.” I said, quickly infusing Mana into Beelzebub’s soul.

FLASH!

“Oooohh! I-I have never... felt such a pure mana before! This is... incredible!”

I saw as Beelzebub slowly began to shine with purple and black light, spiritual essence quickly began to emerge from his soul, mutating his soul and slowly transforming him from a soul into a spirit.

However, before I could see him change completely... My mind blacked out. That moment, a rush of information, images, and other things began to come one after the other into my mind. I was seeing things that I never experienced before, but that Beelzebub did.

The visions I saw where from even the beginnings of his life, memories which he had kept saved for long ago. I saw him being born, hatching from a big and soft egg as a small white worm. He slowly crawled out of his soft-shelled egg, eating away the shell as it was the first meal he ever tasted.

His bright eyes looked around him, as he found himself within a cold cave, there were many siblings like him from the eggs around him, all of them ate their eggs and then stopped, as a large fly emerged, walking slowly towards them... it opened its jaws and then... it grabbed Beelzebub.

But instead of eating him, it began grooming him, cleaning him with a long and slimy tongue, and washing away any nasty thing with the many hairs in her limbs.

“My child... So cute and precious...”

The big fly spoke with the sweet voice of a motherly woman, as she continued grooming Beelzebub. He felt warmth in her affection and fell asleep due to her embrace. The mother continued grooming all her other four children, until they were all well clean, and then she put them over a large cradle made of wood.

When Beelzebub opened his eyes once more, he found his mother there, bringing him small red and purple fruits, which he enjoyed eating. They were sweet and citric, a taste he never forgot, to him, this was the tastiest fruit he had ever eaten on his life.

“I’ll name you Beelzebab, Beelzebib, and you... You’re Beelzebub!”

His mother was rather cute, always cheerful and cleaning him. As the days passed, she brought him little socks for each of his tiny limbs and for all his siblings. And she often slept with all of her children cuddling with her. She protected them and loved them a lot... No matter how different a mother might look, they always love their children without a doubt, and would protect and do anything for them... I see.

I guess humans missed this sort of perspective, such amount of warmth and dedication for her children... How could anyone ever think this woman was a monster? She was obviously a person.

The little Beelzebub slowly grew up, growing large limbs, as his skin solidified and he finally grew a big exoskeleton, turning deep black with a few hints of purple. He slowly grew his wings and began practicing flight with his siblings.

“Mommy, look! I can fly!”

The little Beelzebub stretched his wings, attempting to fly by jumping out of a small furniture.

“B-Beelzebub, watch out!”

“Gyaah!”

Beelzebub tried to jump and fly, but he was not ready yet, his mother caught him just in time before he were to fall into the floor, his exoskeleton was still soft, and if he hit his head, something bad could had happened.

“Are you okay, dear? Don’t do that again, your wings are not developed yet!”

“S-Sorry...”

“Sigh... Okay, how about we eat some cake? Mama managed to get some ingredients!”

“Yaaay! Cake!”

“Mama’s cake is the best!”

“Mommy, I’m hungy!”

“Brother Beelzebub is okay?”

“Yeah, I am okay! Let’s eat!”

Beelzebub and his little siblings all walked behind their mother to eat her cake, she had a very small and rustic oven made out of mud, the cake she took out didn’t looked at all good. It was badly shaped and had some burnt pieces, but it also had tasty-looking cream and fruits on top, and she covered it in honey before serving it to her children.

“Yum, yum! So tashty!”

“Mama, I want more!”

“I want more too!”

“Come on... We only have so much, you have to eat slowly, okay?” She sighed.

It was such a heartwarming scene. I didn’t wanted these memories to end. Because I knew, based in what he spoke about, how all of this would end...
