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

Chapter 1117 The Agonizing Imprisoned Slave

?-----

It had the body of a gryphon resembling a golden feathered phoenix, and where the head would be, there was instead the body of a feathered woman. Her entire body covered on metallic scales and her skin too, was golden and metallic. She had two sharp, crimson eyes, and long arms with sharp talon-like claws. She emanated a powerful presence, at least in the realm of a Tier 10 entity. Her size… it was hard to tell, but she was at least ten meters of height.

However, she wasnʼt free. She had been trapped inside of this place perhaps for how many eons. Her body was covered on wounds, sharp golden stakes piercing her ribs, stomach, back, neck, and all her limbs. Her blood dripping from each wound, covering the floor with a glossy, metallic gold colored liquid, her blood was like this, somehow.

”It hurts… Help me… Please…”

As she whispered, it felt like she talked directly into our minds. Her sharp crimson eyes glancing at us, finally directing themselves somewhere. The light emanated by my motherʼs magic quickly gave her light for the first time in perhaps eons.

”W-What is this?” Aquarina muttered, stepping back. ”S-Some kind of… person? A monster?”

”Sheʼs in pain!” Mist cried. ”We have to help her; it doesnʼt matter what she is!”

Mist quickly ran towards her help, but we all felt a strong bloodlust out of nowhere, the sea of golden blood that was spilling from her wounds shook, materializing into gigantic golden tentacles, attacking Mist.

”MIST!”

I ran towards her as fast as possible, managing to grab her by her dress and dragging her back a second before my motherʼs barriers of light were to protect us from the golden tentacles.

CRAAASH!

”Uwaaah!” Mist cried in horror, as she saw in disbelief the still suffering entity, her crimson eyes glowing bright red. There were cracks growing over her metallic, golden face. ”W-What happened?! Why did you…?”

”Mist, donʼt simply jump to conclusions right away!” My mother said. ”Just because someone or something is in danger, it doesnʼt mean you must heal them right away. Think about it! This entity, it has been here for thousands of years with the same wounds, and it hasnʼt died, hasnʼt it?”

”T-Thatʼs…” Mist muttered, feeling slightly embarrassed and sad at the same time.

”It hurts! Please… make it stop… My blood… I am… I am not your source of… materials… Leave me go… I want to go back home… Where is my world?! Where did you bring me?”

The entity started screaming, her crimson eyes pouring tears of golden liquid, the same metallic substance fell into the floor, melding together with the rest, and quickly hardening into hundreds of golden hands.

”What is this blood she has?!” Celeste asked. ”And what is she even talking about?”

”I donʼt know but we have to neutralize her first!” Aquarina said. ”I donʼt know if we should kill her but…”

”This blood…” My mother analyzed it, as she realized her light barriers were gaining cracks after being hit by the tentacles for a few seconds. ”Theyʼre liquid orichalcum?!”

”Wait, the metal of the gods?!” All of us, me included, responded on the same way.

”It is orichalcum, and of the finest quality…” My mother muttered, glaring at the suffering entity. ”I canʼt believe it… D-

Did the gods…? No… Just when I thought they couldnʼt get any more vile…”

”Did they harvest this metal out of this girl? Or… out of her and her people?” I wondered, feeling a sudden surge of rage growing in my heart. ”She said she wants to go back home… She asked where they brought her. Maybe sheʼs not even from our world… A-After all the Gods came from the stars.”

”Just how many lives have these bastards ruined?” My mother suddenly got furious, her entire body overflowing with her developing divinity. A golden halo surged above her head, as a pair of angelic wings sprouted behind her. ”Just how many people have they enslaved like this? We were never the only ones…”

”It hurts… my body… please stop… I want… to go back home…”

The creature kept crying, the orichalcum all around her moved to her will, growing stronger and hardening based on her own emotions, becoming a hundred deadly spears, which quickly pierced through my motherʼs last barriers, shattering them all apart.

CRASH! CRASH! CRASH!

”[Absolute Heavenly Domain]: [Repulsion]”

However, in that split second, my mother expanded a domain weʼve never seen before. Her Divine Aspect shining the brightest from within her Magic Circle, activating and unleashing a world of pure light.

With a mere word from her, all the thousands of Orichalcum flying weapons were sent back where they came from, hitting the treasury behind us and exploding into pieces. My mother swiftly expanded her domain around her some more.

Within her domain, it felt like she could control everything!

”[Absolutely Heavenly Domain]: [Restraint]”

FLAAASH!

A flash of bright light encompassed the creature, her control over the liquid metal weakened, as it became much harder for her to control everything. She groaned in pain, the light felt like a powerful pressure on her body.

”Sylphy, everyone! I need you to go there and break the chains wrapping her around. Take the stakes if possible too!” My mother commanded us.

”The stakes too?” I asked. ”But wouldnʼt that be dangerous, mom?!”

”No, trust me. Those things, the pain sheʼs feeling… It is whatʼs making her so distressed! If we can alleviate her of that pain, I think she would calm down a bit.” She sighed. ”Iʼll control things in the background, Iʼll protect your lives. Donʼt worry!”

We looked at one another and nodded right away. We trusted my mother, so we decided to quickly do as she asked us.

”Alright mom, leave it to us!” I roared, unsheathing Scarlet and imbuing my sword with the power of Void and Draconic Energy. ”Letʼs go!”

I rushed forwards, Aquarina ran right by my left side, Celeste flew above us, Mist ran behind me, and Lara was to my right side. We all conjured our strongest spells, greeting the smaller Liquid Orichalcum Tentacles and Hands.

CLAAASH!
