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

-----

Ding!

[You and your party have defeated [Ferocious Scrap Beasts (Tier 8)] x56 and [Giant Chimeric Scrap Beast (Tier 8: Rank 6)] x1!]

[You earned 17.000.000 EXP!]

[Your Dungeon Monsters have participated in battle, slaying several of the foes themselves.]

[You earned +10.000 Dungeon EXP.]

[You earned +5.000 Dungeon Energy.]

"Phew, well, we're done." Aquarina yawned, stretching her arms. "That was more fun than I thought! These guys fell so easily, we didn't even need that gun they gave you, Sylphy."

"Yeah I thought the same thing. Maybe the gun will be useful against their King though." I said, looking around.

"Phew, even then, these guys were tough! Maybe you girls had it easy, but it takes a while to consume them." Sighed Pyuku. "Bleh, and it leaves a weird aftertaste compared to eating meat or something else edible."

"For now, let's save them." I said. "I bet Sphynxiette, and her friends will love to eat these metallic monsters though, they have no flesh and just crystal and even more metallic wires inside of their bodies."

"They certainly have a strangely unique anatomy, yet they're still made of scraps, not only just the robots that had perished before, but also pieces of metallic ruins, or broken weapons and tanks, even larger, giant robots." Said Nephilim, analyzing the metallic monsters.

"Hmm, let's leave that for later though." I said. "Glutton, can you store them?"

"WAARF! WAAF!"

Glutton, the walking and eating dimensional bag, barked like a dog, opening his mouth to a disproportionate size and swallowing everything with one bite. J-Just how big can he get his jaws? That was insane! Space-type Monsters are really crazy. I feel like Glutton's powers will only get more ridiculous once he can finally evolve.

"Anyways, Pyuku, lead the way!" I gave him the map because I was getting honestly a bit confused.

"Sure, follow me!"

We moved through the caves while following Pyuku. We came across many areas that were full of metallic ruins, destroyed houses, the bodies of torn apart robots, and also fragments of an ancient temple. The fragments emanated to energy whatsoever and were smaller than the ones at Sunstone Plateau too.

However, just like back then, there was a strange air of mystery, and of melancholy. A feeling of abandonment and desolation. This entire cave, for how long have been the robots living here? Seeing their kin die, seeing everything slowly decay and fall apart, rusting away.

It wasn't only the Scrap Beasts that were taking them down, perhaps their biggest enemy was time itself. I wonder how it feels for inorganic beings to die like this. To just… slowly begin to rust, without feeling the actual old age taking a toll on their bodies.

Wait, how do elves feel? The stronger they grow, the older they can get. My mom… She has lived for so long already.

How much will I ever live? I am a half-elf, but as I cultivate and get stronger, my lifespan will simply continue to increase.

Will I see everyone die in front of me? Everyone I ever loved and cared for… fading away like the wind as my life continues to go on?

I suddenly looked at Aquarina with a slight feeling of sadness.

Will I see her die of old age too?

"…"

"Sylphy?"

Naturally, she had pretty good senses when it came to her girlfriend, so Aquarina immediately noticed I was feeling weird and sad, as usual. She comforted me instantly, hugging my shoulders and kissing my cheek.

"What's wrong? Are you sad? I know this place's really depressive, like a graveyard of sorts…" She sighed. "But cheer up! We'll get out of here in a second once we defeat that big boss monster!" She winked at me.

"A-Aquarina…" I sighed, smiling. "Yeah, don't worry! I'm super fine~" I gently kissed her nose.

I better not think about those things. I just have to enjoy the present with what I have at my side now, every day is a new day, every second is a gift, and every day I get to be with the ones I love, is a day worth living.

"SHYAAAAH!"

However, as I was trying to relax for now, more problems came our way. A group of a hundred more Scrap Beast emerged from the walls, breaking through them with their sharp metallic claws. It seemed these bastards loved digging everywhere.

"We are already midway through, I bet the Scrap King must know we're coming!" Pyuku prepared himself for battle, his small body growing several tens of times larger. "Let's push through as we search for him!"

"Alright!" I roared. "Everyone, one last push then!" I buffed my Dungeon Monsters, Familiars, and friends, as we leaped into battle.

Nephilim was the first to strike them, rushing forwards and gathering her powers. Utilizing the endless mana I provided her, she combined Holy and Demonic Magic Powers into her hands, releasing a wide explosion of light and darkness.

"[Oblivion]!"

BOOOM!

The explosion consumed at least a third of the army of hundreds, while they quickly attempted to attack her with claws and lightning strikes. She defended with her dual spears and shield-shaped barriers, as both Aquarina and I landed in front of her a second later.

"Nephi, stay behind us and keep blasting them!" I said, swinging my sword against the monsters. Slashing their bodies into pieces with waves of Void and Mana Disrupting Energy, further combined with my Yggdragon's Dual Aura and my Draconification Blazing Flames. I even further activated Sunshine, just to give myself even more stats and become even mightier.

Each of my slashes released a giant wave of destructive golden flames, burning and blasting through my foes. My red scales slowly turning golden, as my Holy Draconification form activated on its own. My hair became blonde, and my eyes shone brightly.

"[Holy Light Dragon Blade Arts]: [One Hundred Mirage Dragons]!"

FLAAASH!

My Aura erupted from my body as I swung my blade, the light surrounding my body swiftly changed shape. A hundred copies of myself appeared, made completely out of holy light. As usual, they weren't just illusions, they hit for real.

SLASH! SLASH! SLASH! SLASH!

Countless slashes dispatched a dozen Scrap Beast in a split second.

But I noticed three chimera ones approaching rapidly.

Huh, no time to think, eh?

"[Divine Dragon Blade Arts]: [Mana-Eating Void Dragon's Jaws]!"

SLAAASH!
