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

Chapter 1564: Aquarina The Teacher

-----

After swiftly taking care of the Tier 7 Living Statue Golems, the group reprimanded Silvia for her recklessness this time. It seemed that although she often told Aquarina she was reckless, the girl herself sometimes got a bit too over her own head, rushing towards somewhere she thought was not dangerous, without enough caution.

The difference between Aquarina and Silvia was that Aquarina willingly jumped to visible danger, while Silvia usually didnʼt jump to danger, but would become overly relaxed once she saw no danger at all, with little common sense to realize that her surroundings could be dangerous or hold an obvious trap.

”Be more careful when you enter areas with just a treasure chest inside,” said Aquarina. ”Most of the time theyʼre guaranteed to be traps. Also the treasure chest themselves can also be monsters, so youʼve gotta be careful.”

”Dammit… Okay, sorry,” Silvia slowly stood up, looking at the treasure chest. ”So is it a trap or not?”

”Only one way to find out,” Aquarina said, releasing a freezing wave towards the treasure chest.

”Itʼs not reacting?” wondered Justicio. ”I guess it wasnʼt a monster at the end-”

”GRYYAAAAH!”

However, the moment Justicio got closer, the treasure chest opened its jaws, revealing a fleshy interior, a long tongue and sharp teeth.

”Woah!”

Justicio stepped back and tripped over the floor, the Treasure Chest Mimic leaped towards him and aimed to eat him whole with a single bite.

”Fuck! Agh!”

As Justicio complained, Aquarina punched the creature with immense force, sending it flying away before it could deal any damage.

BAAAM!

”Gryyaaergh!”

The creature fell to the ground far away, instantly sending danger, it closed itself shut and pretended to be another harmless treasure chest.

”It was a Mimic this whole time?!” Asked Aquarina angrily. ”Aw come on! This is not even fair at this point!”

”Is it that bad? Maybe it has a treasure inside!” said Silvia.

”Nah, theyʼre just a lot of flesh and… tentacles,” said Aquarina. ”I guess they tend to have a robust monster core.”

”Iʼll crush it then, can I?” Justicio asked.

”Sure, go ahead,” Aquarina nodded anyways.

”Alright!”

Justicio smiled, licking his lips as he swung the golden axe right at the monster, whom he already hated for having scared him like that.

CRAAASH!

The monster was easily split into two halves, as its innards splattered everywhere. Aquarina recalled her first experience with a mimic being with Furoh, but even that guy wasnʼt as scary as the real deal.

”It has a big core, yeah!”

Justicio grabbed it with his hand, the blood covering him didnʼt bother the boy at all, the core was a huge as a watermelon, a rare sight.

Even when they checked the body of the chimera before Aquarina stored it away, the thing only had tiny cores inside of each creature that composed it.

”Alright, letʼs keep it… Well the meat looks edible,” said Aquarina. ”Letʼs bring it along and eat it later.”

The team nodded, quickly walking towards the next room, which was a couple of dozen meters away from the one they visited.

This one, once they pushed the door, was full of dozens of little mollusk monsters, conches with tentacles the size of dogs.

[You have entered into a room full of [Tentacle Conch Colony Swarm (Tier 5)]!]

[Alone theyʼre only Tier 5 in Durability and Attack power, but together theyʼre stronger than Tier 7.]

”SHYEEEEE!”

The creatures instantly hissed together like a swarm, attacking the party before they could even say a word about this little party of creatures.

”Alright, fuck it! Come at me!”

Aquarina quickly unsheathed her daggers, jumping into battle in the middle of dozens of these creatures. Her rapidly movements and immense strength became an incredibly deadly combination.

And she decided to test her evolved Skill!

”[Abyssal Shadow Dagger Arts]: {Shadow Rampage}”

TRUUUM!

Out of nowhere, Aquarinaʼs entire Aura transformed into endless shadows wrapping her daggers, she moved and unleashed more and more shadows, her strikes were multiplied as the shadows took the form of her daggers, creating a rampage that the monsters couldnʼt contain despite their hard anti-magic shells.

SLASH! SLASH! SLASH! SLASH!

Ultimately, they were rapidly sliced apart, their shells broke into pieces and the monsterʼs interior were splattered into the floor one after another! Silvia and Justicio didnʼt stand watching, joining the battle and unleashing techniques of their own.

”Iʼve been practicing this for a while, my own techniques!” Silvia roared.

”{Holy Soul Hammer Arts}: {Sunshine Smite}!”

Silvia swung her hammer down after loading it with large quantities of Mana and Spirit Energy from Khepri, releasing a massive explosion with each consecutive, rapid smiting attack.

BAAM! BAAM! BAAM!

The monsterʼs hard shells exploded into pieces after being crushed by her rapid, sunlight-infused attacks, beginning to easily be destroyed by her unsurpassable might.

”Iʼve got this too!” Justicio nodded.

”{Insectoid Axe Arts}: {Mantisʼ Slicing Scythe}!”

Justicio applied his Beast Aura into his Weapon itself, using the axe effectively as if it were a deadly mantis scythe cutting and slicing through his foes like a guillotine.

CRASH! CRASH! CRASH

The combinations of energies and techniques created incredible results, the trio easily cleaned the entire room from these monsters, leaving their crushed bodies behind.

”Oh wow, incredible!” Agua clapped. ”The heroine and her friends… so strong!”

”Ah, yes, theyʼve gotten stronger,” nodded Khepri. ”I guess Iʼve taught them well…”

”You havenʼt taught us anything…” Silvia said.

”What is she even talking about?” Justicio raised an eyebrow.

”Anyways! Weʼre done here, no treasure chest either,” said Aquarina. ”Letʼs quickly pick these up… the most intact ones… Also letʼs butcher the cores out of them.”

Aquarina found these monsters had cores the size of a thumb, very small and messy to find, which became almost not worth it.

After they were done, they moved forward, finding two completely empty rooms, and finally another room with chest and statues.

”Okay two more statues and a chest, itʼll be almost the same as before,” said Aquarina. ”The statues are strong so theyʼre a good training partner for you guys. Go for it! Iʼll stay here… Pyuku and Agua should be your support.”

”Okay!”

”Sure!”

Silvia and Justicio charged forward, while Pyuku and Agua followed, fighting the statues.

”Hey this isnʼt a bad feeling at all, like Iʼm a teacher or something!”

Aquarina crossed her arms, feeling quite good with herself.
