Reincarnated With A Glitched System: Why Is My MP Not Running Out?
Chapter 183 The Heroes' Past-----
Amidst the jungles, a large Goblin Champion shrouded in burn wounds ran for his life, gasping for air. His muscles were already very tired, and he felt like he was going to drop dead at any moment out of pain and exhaustion. However, the monster was well-known for its supernatural capabilities, and it managed to outrun his foes, mostly because they were distracted dealing with another Goblin Champion and over thirty goblins.
"Gahhah… Ugh…"
However, the Goblin Champion couldn't help but stop running as he gasped for air, coughing blood, he looked behind him to make sure nobody was following him.
"…"
And there was nobody.
"Hahh… Agh…"
The Goblin Champion took a small leather bag and drank some fresh water from it, satiating some of his thirst. After that, he decided to look back once more.
"…"
"Guh?!"
And instead of nothing there was a man covered in black robes resembling those of an assassin, a vigilant of the night, his face down his nose was covered by black clothes, and only his aquamarine eyes could be seen, sharply glaring at the Goblin Champion.
The Goblin Champion felt as if his heart had suddenly stopped.
ραпdα nᴏνa| сom And it did.
CLASH!
"Gueh?!"
The Goblin Champion looked down into his chest, as he found and horrible sight, a large dagger had pierced his heart, infusing deadly poison inside… the poison was burning through his heart as it spread across all of his blood vessels, his skin quickly turned purple-colored, as he vomited a mouthful of blood, his eyes rolled, and he dropped dead in the spot.
"That should be the last one." Said the man, Shade.
"Oh, you took it down?" asked another man, with bright red hair and orange eyes, Allan.
"Yes, it was almost dead, your fire is intense." Said Shade.
"Ahahah! Sorry, did you wanted to have a challenge? Not like it can amount to anything much." Laughed Allan while patting his friend's back.
"…"
Shade walked towards the Goblin Champion, pulling out the dagger and carving out the Magic Crystal, it glowed with a bright dark color.
"Another Dark Magic Crystal… You know what this means, right?" asked Shade.
Allan looked at the crystal while raising his eyebrows. The Man then looked around and shrugged.
"That… it is proficient at dark magic?" asked Allan.
"Sigh… Don't you remember that time when we fought monsters mass produced through the Demon's power? All of them had dark magic crystals, and they're filled with miasma." Said Shade.
He cracked open the crystal and then a horrid green and black liquid dropped over the floor, beginning to slowly melt away the dirt below.
"Oh! I remember now… So that's miasma?! Is there a Demon here making Goblins? For what purpose though? The war ended already…" said Allan.
"Yeah, it ended already but that doesn't mean they won't try to kill humans and conquer this continent, the Demon King is dead but their hate for humans is far from over…" sighed Shade.
Allan rubbed his chin while wondering about that.
"So the Summons that died a few hours ago…" said Allan.
"The red energy they saw before dying… it must have been made by a Demon Lord, our Summons are strong after all," said Shade.
"Yeah, anything that could kill them is certainly strong enough to be near our level… Well, not really, we have yet to confront whatever that was…" said Allan.
"And there is the dark presence we are sensing to the other side of the jungle… Allan, I believe something dark is approaching." Said Shade.
"I do too, friend…" sighed Allan.
Shade and Allan looked at one another for a moment, as the two sat down over a log and began to meditate what to do.
Shad seemed to be deep in thoughts, he didn't wanted more bloodshed anymore. After the previous attack against the amazon tribe by the invading demons that ended killing Zack's father and many others, he doesn't want to risk their lives anymore.
He knows that the heroes themselves are a source of trouble, their very presences attract misfortune, the Demons and the Demon Lords immediately can tell where they are due to their immense magical presences, and they might always come after them one way or the other.
Despite being so strong, they are also in constant danger, and their children also go through such danger as well.
Aquarina, his dear daughter, had already gone through a terrible experience herself, and was caught by a mysterious Evil God working together with a Demon Lord… He didn't wanted the same thing to happen again, not when Sylphy herself had to sacrifice her own body and use her strange powers to somehow survive.
Not even now he knew what happened back then… Sylphy's powers are a complete mystery even to her own parents, so Shade would naturally know even less. But it is a miracle that after being reconstructed by her mother, she came back to normal like nothing.
But he knew very well about this, and more… he didn't wanted them to go through the same pain.
If possible, he was willing to escape with the Amazon tribe and bring them to a safer area of the continent… this jungle, it had its dark secrets that made it more attractive than it should be to these dark forces.
"Allan, I don't want more bloodshed…" sighed Shade.
"Shade?" asked Allan in surprise.
"I don't want the same thing to repeat, the thing that happened roughly six years ago… When many of the amazon died… When Zack's parents died… I don't want that." Said Shade.
"But we are here now, we can make a difference." Said Allan.
"Even as strong as we are, we are not omnipotent… I've realized over time… I cannot save everyone," sighed Shade.
"…"
Allan fell to silence as he looked into the floor. Shade and he knew very well that life wasn't easy, even as strong as they were, they were unable to do everything in the world…
Even after having gathered so much strength…
They, as heroes, were unable to save everyone.
