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

-----

Before leaving I wanted that question to be answered at the very least. They seemed very secretive about this topic unlike the Demon King's subject. As if the thing of Evil Gods was a completely different thing, and even more serious than the Demon King itself.

"We are aware that those two were the ones targeting you and your families." Cronus said. "However, much like us, without using mortals to do their bidding, they cannot truly target you directly. For now, you must simply deal with those that obey them and desire to fulfill their wishes. The Evil Gods themselves… We'll deal with them eventually."

"What?! So you're just telling us to fuck off then?" I asked angrily. "They were the ones behind our first attack! We almost died back then! And you're just okay with is?!"

"Sylphy, we are not." Sighed Theia. "We are doing everything we can to find them, once that happens. We'll crush them. The problem between gods stays between gods. Mortals must not interfere in our affairs. These are powers beyond your understanding, if you were to ever fight a god, you would only perish."

"Indeed, do not fight the Evil Gods, that's something we must take care of by ourselves." Hyperion said.

"Those damned traitors… I'll eventually find them and impale them!" Themis said angrily.

"Sigh…"

I guess I didn't had much I could do right now, it was all up to the gods to decide something like this. Even if I wanted to get rid of the Evil Gods, I lacked the strength… Or did I?

Well, I have the Curse that could hurt their projections at least, and these gods themselves said my Infinite Mana could destroy the entire world if misused… Maybe I could one day have a shot at it.

"Though, at the very least can you tell us they won't show up out of the blue?" I asked.

"They lack authority over the Atlanta Continent aside from wild monsters. It is very unlike that anything organized will ever happen for now." Said Theia.

"Rest assured." Oceanus replied.

"Hmm… And what about them? Who were they before? I know Evil Gods used to be Gods like you guys, right?" I asked curiously.

"Yes…" Cronus spoke. "There are many Evil Gods now. They're traitors that didn't want to abide with our rules. They wanted to terrorize humans or use people like cattle to gain divine power indiscriminately. Some of them simply were chaotic by nature. They escaped from our grasp and went on their own, they turned their backs against us and even made pacts with Demon Tribes and Demon Kings…"

These guys really hate Demons, I wonder what they would say if they knew I have several Demon Friends… or maybe they know and simply don't care?

"That's it?" I asked.

"We can't say more of it, it is something that mortals cannot know." Said Cronus.

"Ugh… Do you guys hate Demons that much? They're normal people at the end, you know?" I asked.

"…We do." Theia said.

"We really do know." Oceanus said.

"But the threat of the Demon King is something that might eventually be too dangerous, we cannot ignore that!" Said Hyperion.

"As long as the Demon King is defeated and the Demons subjugated or kept on check, chances for new Demon Kings will go down…" Said Theia.

"Huh, so you know what you're doing, all of you know you're dirtying your hands and still do it anyways without trying to find another solution to this entire endless cycle…" I sighed.

"It's not like that." Theia said. "We know this and… Well…"

Theia seemed to be struggling to find words to answer me.

"The conversation's over. All of you should leave." Cronus said. "I wish you good luck in your mission."

Cronus' bright eyes seemed to give me a sharp glare, as if he was seeing through me for a few seconds before we disappeared from the place.

The next second, we were back to our bodies and just woke up from our beds, almost jumping out of them as we gasped for air.

The sound of birds in the outside, the warm sunlight, and the gentle breeze coming from the open window quickly calmed us down, making us realize we were finally away from them.

"That was really horrible…" Sighed Aquarina. "I just wanted to get out of there. The air was so thick and all the gods were so powerful, I felt like I couldn't even speak even when I wanted…"

So that explains why Aquarina wasn't even speaking that much herself and seemed afraid of everything. She was also hugging me tightly. But it wasn't much the case for me. I mean, I could sense their powerful divine auras and all, but I didn't felt as bad as she's saying she felt.

"Huh, it must have been rather scary for you… Well, I was also scared and all but I don't know where I got all of this courage." I sighed.

"Yeah, I can't believe it… You confronted them all without fearing anything…" Said Aquarina. She began admiring me even more, her eyes were shining at me.

"Well, everything should be alright now…" I sighed. "Calm down."

I hugged Aquarina back and comforted her. We already forgot our little discussion last night and hugged in bed.

"At the end I was still rather tempted by their power…" Sighed Aquarina.

"Yeah you were the one that convinced me at the end…" I sighed.

"I mean, it was right. Now that we already have their curses and we can't get rid of them, and we have already become the targets of these foes, we might as well just take as many curses as we can, we'll be targeted anyways either if we have one or two or three…" Aquarina said. "We should had asked for more, the ones we got weren't enough to be honest."

"Hmmm, maybe. Perhaps some more would had been good… But I am not too fond of them and I was getting bored of being there. I just wanted to get out as soon as possible. Also there might be a limit of how many they can give…"
