Reincarnated With A Glitched System: Why Is My MP Not Running Out?
Chapter 406 Reaching The Wolf Steppes-----
"So the fragments just spread out into the world?!" I asked.
"More or less." My father said. "It has been so many years since then, many fragments had been sealed since then and most of the land is safe, but a lot of them had been stolen from their sacred grounds and used for nefarious purposes. It is said that fragments are more common in the Demon Continent. They're not looking like pieces of flesh though, and usually are purple-colored crystals." Said my father as he looked around cautiously.
"At this point we shouldn't be worrying about them anymore, but if we are here, we'll obviously try to do something to help." Sighed Shade. "Even when these people are beyond awful, it doesn't mean we'll merely abandon them to their deaths. As heroes… it is our duty to defeat monsters."
"We are not evil after all, we won't laugh if something bad happens to these people, even if there's a bunch of assholes mixed in there, there's also a lot of innocent people. Generalizing an entire group of people is something… we learned that was a wrong thing to do." My father sighed.
"It's true…" I said. "Well, I am sure that my father would help people when they need it. If you didn't, I wouldn't recognize you as my father anymore!"
"Eh?! So harsh!" My father cried.
So at the end, the Fragments of the First Demon King, in the shape of crystals, spread through the world by falling like meteorites when it was defeated. Its body must have been gigantic if its fragments fell like meteorites from the sky and spread into the world… but this might also be the origin of Monsters and Demons. After all, both began to exist after the First Demon King was defeated by the combined effort of the First Hero and the First Priestess, both were powerful demigods created directly by the gods' powers, not normal people that was chosen.
After that, the Gods just escaped from the surface and went to live in Heaven, atop the clouds and the sky itself. Maybe you could call it "the stars" or even "outer space", whatever name that place has. I imagine that from there, they watch over the world silently, afraid from the world itself, apparently.
Nonetheless, the world itself might had created both monsters and demons to fend off humans and the other races created by the Gods, but also the demons and monsters began fighting one another, so that ended defeating the world's original purpose, maybe. Well, this is mostly my own speculation at this point, but it does sounds plausible to me in the perspective of what I am seeing and from the information I've heard from my parents.
"For now, it wouldn't be good to get your minds filled with this information, Allan, you went a bit overboard telling them everything." Sighed Shade. "This wasn't supposed to be known until a few more years."
"Is that so? But it's such common knowledge…" Sighed my father.
"As the future heroes, don't you think that would scare them a bit?" Sighed Shade.
"Hey, do they look scared?" My father pointed at us, we were just calm as usual.
"…Well, I guess. Aquarina, are you okay after learning that?" Wondered her father.
"Eh? Yeah." She said. "It means that whenever we find one of those, we tell you to seal it."
"Yes but… don't touch them, they're very dangerous, get it?" Asked Shade.
"Okay!" Said Aquarina.
"We are not stupid, uncle…" I sighed. "We know danger when we see it."
"Yeah, relax." Said Zack.
"W-Well, I see…" Shade sighed.
We continued advancing through the forest while I continued conjuring Ember in the palm of my hand, which I kept mildly closed. With that, I was earning a bit of Skill Proficiency every few seconds.
As we continued to move forward, the thick mana around our surroundings intensified once more. and then, we suddenly felt the presences of various entities chasing us down from afar. My father and Shade had been using a special Spell that allowed them to search through vast areas while they looked for clues, but ultimately, we ended being found by something else.
"Wolves." My father said, the moment he said that several red eyes began to emerge around our surroundings, camouflaging in the mild mana fog.
"GROAR!"
Suddenly, a beast three meters of height leaped forward, a giant, black-furred wolf with sharp red eyes and a single big horn on its forehead. This was… a Black Horned Wolf, a monster of Tier 3!
As it was closer to me, I decided to fight first. My father and Shade didn't intervene, they seemed to want to leave this threat to us and intervene only if we were in lethal danger.
I pointed my hand at the wolf leaping towards me with its giant jaws, as I called Ignatius powers.
"Blazing Breath!"
Combining the power of my Ember with Ignatius Baby Dragon Breath Skill, an enormous storm of flames erupted from the palm of my hand as the figure of a dragon's jaws opening made completely out of flames emerged from my hand.
FLUOOOSH!
"AWOO…!"
The wolf was quickly consumed by the fire, which began to burn through its entire body. It was strong enough to tank the flames just fine, but its fur was beginning to burn and so its entire body. It struggled and roared ferociously, but before it could escape these flames, I swiftly fired another Fire attack into its head.
pαndα`noνɐ1--сoМ "Grand Fireball!"
BOOOM!
An enormous, one-meter big fireball I conjured in mere seconds emerged, combining the enchanted power of the Level 3 Ember Skill, the Wolf's head was roasted alive in seconds.
"AWROOO…!"
BAAM!
The beast fell into the floor and then remained motionless. Afterwards, I felt that I earned some EXP out of it.
Ding!
[You earned 600 EXP]
[Ignatius] earned 1140 EXP]
[Naturia] earned 1140 EXP]
[Naturia] has reached Level 2!]
Wow, the bonus of EXP they got was insane, these monsters gave a nice amount of EXP per head!
