Reincarnated With A Glitched System: Why Is My MP Not Running Out?
Chapter 756 Preparing A Gift For Aquarina-----
Once I woke up the next morning, I saw a huge airship emerging from within the skies. It was the airship containing the paladins and knights sent to fortify the city's defenses, alongside a huge quantity of food and other materials, and even magic weapons and armor, grandfather didn't even hesitate to send this, I guess he might actually be a decent person.
Though, I still can recall our first meeting slightly traumatized… He was supposed to be my grandfather but he threatened me and said he would kill me or something! It was really creepy! Is he okay in the head? Or maybe he's what Alice said some people on this Earth world call "Tsundere" or something…
Well, anyways, I don't think I am obliged to check them out, so I'll just concentrate on my task for today… Aquarina's birthday is just right around the corner, so I want to prepare a fitting gift for my sweet love. I've been thinking about a few things, but ultimately, a ring that can enhance her strength and magic power would be nice and wouldn't get in the way of her flashy combat style.
"Violet~ Come out!" I said.
FLAAASH!
Violet suddenly summoned herself in front of me.
"Guuuh!" She was very energetic as always.
"Let's make a pretty gift for my girlfriend, alright?" I asked with a smile, giving Violet a head pat.

Several other of my familiars were summoned as well, as they started to wonder what I was planning on making today.
"A gift for Aquarina, huh?" Ignatius wondered. "What are you planning? Maybe a special weapon? I guess that girl fancies daggers- Oh, though doesn't she transform them into scythes?! A giant scythe would do!"
"A scythe?" Beelzebub wondered. "Heh! For once in our lifetime, I agree with you, lizard. A powerful, sharp, and edgy scythe would do her good, she's already like a reaper when she transforms after all!"
"A powerful weapon that can enhance that form's strength would do her good, hehe." Curse agreed.
"I-I don't know if you guys are aware but it is quite clear Sylphy and Aquarina don't quite enjoy that form… After all, it hurts Aquarina and she only uses it on emergencies. It is a dangerous power." Furoh said, on his Fenrir form.
"Meh, you're ruining the fun." Beelzebub sighed.
"Shut up, old vessel." Curse said.
"Well he's right." I said. "I'll be making something that won't enhance that form's strength in specific, but that'll help her use it better, and take less backlash, all while enhancing her major attributes, which seem to be Water, Ice, and Shadows. Glutton, open your mouth for a bit~"
"BAAARF!" Glutton suddenly opened his gigantic jaws, revealing countless teeth and a long, slimy tongue that gave me a few licks in the face. I had already grown accustomed to this sweet child's affection so I tolerated the licks.
I quickly began searching inside and took out everything I wanted. He was even able to store materials of incredible power and danger, such as the Demon King Fragment and the Demon Core of the Parasite guy we defeated back in the Water Dungeon.
Ah, of course, after the whole hunt, there were thousands of monster corpses and materials which we recollected, my inventory was essential for that, and although I'll be giving away mostly 99% of everything to fund our city by selling these materials to merchants and adventurer guilds associations in other parts of the Kingdom, I can keep whatever I want within the 1% margin.
This also includes the huge body that the big bug left behind, what was his name again? Raghidonte? I think so. Well, his body is a big source of amazing materials, imbued with dangerous demonic energy though, but not as dangerous as pure materials from a demon, so they can handled much easily and better.
Especially that big, juicy core and his internal organs, all imbued with so much miasma and demonic energy that they're absolutely exuding with power! If I can merge the necessary materials and also some other accessories I have lying around, then I could surely make something incredible.
For that, I took out the following items and materials:
[Sarach the Parasite Magic Crystal Fragment (B+ Grade)] x1
[Sarach the Parasite's Exoskeleton Fragment (B+ Grade)] x1
[Raghidonte's Corrupted True Demonic Core Fragment (A Grade) x1
[Raghidonte's Blood (A- Grade)] x1
[Undine's Whisper (B Grade) (Ring)] x1
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm[Fishman King's Scales (B- Grade)] x10
[Fishman King's Shattered Trident Fragments (B- Grade)] x3
[Giant Crab's Exoskeleton Fragment (C+++ Grade)] x5
[Sea Monsters Magic Crystals (C Grade)] x10
[Spirit Tree Crystalized Sap (B Grade)] x2
[Spirit Tree Crystalized Branch (B Grade)] x1
It was a ton of materials, and it included one of the Rings I acquired through the Quests I've been completing so far. I thought about adding more, but I think this is as much as a single ring can take before it becomes a mess.
The formula behind this entire thing is simple, I want something that can help Aquarina's Abyssal Embodiment Transformation last longer, have less backlash, and not eat away her energy or life. At the same time, I want something that can maybe heal her, even if slowly, and that boosts her primary elements.
So that's why I'll be adding the spirit tree branches and sap, to balance the powerful demonic darkness elements of the first materials added into the mix, and who knows, maybe I could even get the parasitic power of that guy's fragment.
His core was huge, so I only cut off a tiny jewel piece, while keeping the rest for later. I'll probably remake most of my equipment before departing, and I don't know if I'll make everything a System, I think it should be alright with a sword and a shield for now, the rest will remain as normal equipment, which still gives nice stat bonuses and abilities, and that I can replace freely or use as materials to make something better without feeling guilty about it.
"Now, let's begin…!" I said with a smile, pouring the materials over Violet's body.
