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

Chapter 1579: Khepri Gets All Her Ornaments

-----

As everyone was resting from the big battle and trying to slowly calm down, realizing the monster they killed was actually the big boss of this second-floor dungeon, suddenly, something appeared…

SPLAAASH!

Right out of nowhere, a bright light surged from the depths of the saltwater pool, splashing the water everywhere. The trio glanced in disbelief as a giant golem emerged, shaped like a golden cat, with a big crimson mirror merged with a crown over its head, looking rather majestic or even divine.

The golemʼs body was indeed cat-like, and it even replicated their way of walking, graceful and agile-looking. The mechanical cat descended into the floor with loud noises, its size surpassing five meters of height.

CLANK! CLANK! CLANK!

Everyone watched in awe and silence for a moment, as the mechanical cat walked towards them, glancing at the group with its big, red jewel eyes, glowing brightly.

Yet Silvia felt something, a familiar presence within it!

”Hey! Iʼm back! I found my Ornament down there! The Orichalcum Golem had stopped working due to the saltwater, it also got crushed by the Lobster Queen, hahaha! I finally got all three!”

It was Khepriʼs voice, it was indeed her and not just some powerful Orichalcum Golem or some kind of new, threatening monster.

”Oh wow thatʼs so nice Khepri!” said Silvia. ”And I knew it was you! So your third ornament is this huge cat thing?!”

”Yeah! And Iʼve now gotten all my memories too…” Khepriʼs voice suddenly became deeper. ”And Iʼve also learned my true purpose. Yes, my purpose… To eliminate you.”

Everything suddenly went completely silent, the atmosphere became dry, heavy.

Agua and Pyuku stepped back out of instinct, as the giant metallic cat glared at the entire group with murderous eyes.

”C-Come again?” Aquarina muttered.

”Eliminate… us?” Justicio asked.

”Khepri?” Silviaʼs eyes were losing their light.

”...Yes, Iʼll eat you up and…!” The cat stepped forward, showing everyone her giant sharp fangs. ”And… Pffff.. Hahahaha! Iʼm joking! Oh my god, look at your faces! HAHAHAHAHA!”

”…”

”…”

”…”

”…”

”…”

Khepriʼs ornament rapidly began to dissipate, becoming pure light deposited within Khepriʼs own crown, which now looked complete and even a bit shiny.

”Come on! Hey, are you guys there?”

She looked surprised as everyone had been completely paralyzed by that… They truly thought something bad was going to happen.

”KHEEPRIIIIIII! IʼM GOING TO FUCKING KILL YOU!” Aquarina was the first to react, pointing her fists at the little spirit.

”Eek!”

Khepri started running away from Aquarina, who had enough of her jokes, even though it was only one, and aimed to smack her bug-like head at least once.

”Come here!”

”Eeek! S-Silvia, save me!”

She quickly hid behind Silvia, as the girl sighed.

”I-Itʼs okay, Khepri, itʼll be quick,” Silvia suddenly grabbed Khepri with her small, yet strong hands, without letting her escape Aquarinaʼs rage.

”S-Silvia?!” Khepri screamed loudly, as she noticed her master had betrayed her.

”Thank you Silvia…” Aquarina cracked her knuckles. ”Alright, time for a knuckle sandwich, Khepri. I hope you like them.”

”Gyaaaahhh!”

Pyuku, Agua, and Justicio glanced at the scene absent mindedly, as Aquarina smacked Khepriʼs head a few times.

”T-This is Spirit Abuse! You canʼt do this! Iʼm going to tell the Spirit Police!” Screamed Khepri.

”The hell is a Police?!” Aquarina asked angrily. ”Also I barely touched you! Iʼm strong enough I could kill you with a single flick of my finger, you know?”

”I-I am not that weak!” Khepri complained, shading a little tear as she rubbed her head, there was a big bump left behind, almost comically shaped like a bulb over her head.

”Hahah… Okay, we forgive you Khepri,” Silvia smiled, laughing as she petted Khepriʼs head.

”You didnʼt have to betray me like that over some joke!” Khepri said. ”Come on, it wasnʼt even that bad!”

”It was! You know how much shit weʼve been through? We totally ended believing that because of how shitty things can get any time now!” Silvia said. ”So donʼt ever do that again!”

”Augh… I-Iʼm sorry…” Khepri sighed, after noticing that Silvia had gotten angry, a very rare sight to behold, as the girl was oftentimes very carefree and cheery.

Justicio walked there after they finished ”talking”, accompanied by Agua and Pyuku.

”Looks like itʼs resolved?” Wondered Justicio. ”But yeah Khepri, that was really scary, donʼt do jokes like that… Not even Aquarina goes this far, you know?”

”W-Why am I being used as an example?” Aquarina wondered, looking a bit angered.

”N-Never mind what I said…” Muttered Justicio.

”Khepri, you still regained your memories, right?” Pyuku asked. ”And you seem… Somewhat different as well, I can feel within you that youʼve changed.”

”Your way of speaking, spirit lady, it is quite different, yes,” nodded Agua. ”Youʼve indeed changed in more ways than one.”

”Aaah, yeah, Iʼve changed a tiny bit,” nodded Khepri. ”Itʼs because experiences we live and the memories we have is what make us who we are, you know? So the more memories I regained, the more my personality came back, who I truly was. Iʼve become a bit chatty, but thatʼs just who I was.”

”So will you tell us more about you?” Aquarina asked. ”Who you are and everything?”

”Iʼve learned a substantial amount of new things, but at the same time, the last explanation I gave you and what I revealed to you before remains accurate,” said Khepri. ”It is pretty much that… aside from a thing I didnʼt remember before.”

”A… thing?” Aquarina asked.

”I… I remember, I have some memories of it, but they arenʼt complete even after getting them all,” said Khepri. ”I remember I was once a human… a human from another world.”

”Huh?!”

The entire party was shocked, even Agua.

A Spirit formerly being a human?

That was simply too insane…

Or not?

”Wait I do remember that Sylphy told me that Nephilim used to be a human too, from some other world where the gods came from…” Aquarina said. ”Is this the world where you came from?”

”N-Nephilim you say?!” Asked Khepri. ”Y-You mean that the original Divine and Demonic Energy Fueled Core Cyborg is still alive somewhere?!”

”Whatʼs a cyborg?”
