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

283 Trying To Negotiate With A Hungry Fly

—–

I entered my Soul scape once more, finding Ignatius, Alice, Furoh, and Naturia conversing around. The moment they spotted me they all ran to me asking for food... Yeah, they have grown spoiled now and always expect me to bring them some meal at least three times a day. They had grown gluttonous, but it seems that eating makes them stronger and more energetic when I use magic, so its all good. Furoh has begun to let me connect more with his soul, and lately I’ve been slowly learning and comprehending the Darkness element which he wields naturally as a demon, meanwhile, my Light element is being strengthened thanks to Alice, and I can learn it better.

And with Ignatius for Fire and Naturia for Nature, I am getting pretty good at these four elements, although I can use spells from other elements, they’re just Tier 1 basic “daily life” spells that don’t do generally much. Ah, of course, it is important to note that Life and Earth Attribute are also getting pretty good, though I’ve been specializing more in Life Magic due to its usefulness. I want to enhance my healing magic enough so I can one day regenerate even if I am torn into pieces.

This is why while I make up my Magic Circle, I mostly create Nature Runes, as it boosts the power of Life, Earth, and Nature magic, pretty convenient! Although Nature Runes are harder to make than Life and Earth, but it encompasses three elements at the same time, so it’s the most convenient. As for the other elements, Fire is a priority, so I am making mostly Fire Runes, they’re easy to make too. I don’t know if there are elements that have fire on them, but they seem more complicated to make than Nature Runes if I cannot easily create them by willing it. I should ask my mother about this, choosing which Elemental Runes I want to add to my Magic Circle over time is very important.

...Anyways, another friend that might help me boost my power with Dark Magic and perhaps even Poison element is Beelzebub, this annoying fly. So, as my familiars asked for snacks, I took them out and offered the food to them.

“You guys are growing a bit too gluttonous... Are you puppies now or something?” I sighed, giving everybody some sandwiches and cake slices.

“What are you talking about? Nom, nom... I-I am a powerful Dragon! I am no puppy...” Said Ignatius, stuffing himself with food, his eggshell had continued to slowly crack more. A baby dragon might soon be born.

“Food is so nice, Sylphy! I’ve never been so happy before; it really is relaxing to eat delicious things...” Sighed Alice. She was the happiest about eating food, and I was also happy she was having such a nice time honestly.

“Foooo!” Naturia continued eating as usual. I’ve realized she prefers “nature-related” foods, such as vegetables and fruits, so I always bring her vegetable and fruit salad. Ignatius prefers meat, but he also eats anything anyways. And lastly, Furoh is... he’s the one that eats anything too, his stomach is almost endless so he could continue eating more and more, he said he used to gorge on trash to fill his stomach in the past, I felt so bad when he said that that I’ve made of my goal in life to make him eat all the tasty food he can. My big wormy pal seemed very flattered when I told him that, and he’s been enjoying himself, I often feel a soothing feeling in my heart when I see him happy, after all, he suffered a lot through his life.

.....

Anyways, I quickly moved towards Beelzebub. I’ve realized he got a very big fixation with sweets, he’s very weak to cakes, pancakes, fruits, and other things, just like flies (if we ignore the part where they like to eat poop). Beelzebub seems to be from a family of giant fly-like demons, as his subordinates were very similar to him, so they probably have more decency to not eat poop, and got a strong sweet tooth instead.

“Hey, Beelzebub, I got you more sweets!” I said, presenting him an assortment of sweet things.

His eyes were locked into the food, fixated in what I had brought for him, he was so fixated that it felt like he was about to lose his mind. He was constantly swallowing saliva while looking at the cakes.

“Y-You... You’ve brought something delicious once more! D-Do you think I will... so easily... fall for it?” He asked angrily, as he tried to ignore me.

“Come on, you know you want it, right?” I asked.

“Y-You think you can easily come with new tasty treats every day? I won’t easily fall for your tricks, little child! I am already very well aware you’re trying to force a contract into my soul to make me into your spirit slave like that foolish dragon, or the worm demon!” He said. “There is no way I am falling... Nom... No way! I will persevere... Nom...! I shall never fall to your food’s charm, you little girl! I am... Nom... Ahh, so sweet... I love sweet things- NEVER!”

Beelzebub continued gorging on the food, he had begun eating midway through when I got the food closer to him, his limbs moved automatically and began carrying the food to his jaws. Yep, he finally fell for it. He continued eating, his big eyes started to cry out of happiness.

“I-I have never tasted something so deliciously and carefully made before... Ooh, I am so happy right now! T-This is... Hahh... It reminds me of the cake my dear mother used to cook for me.” He cried.

“E-Eh? You had a mother?” I wondered.

“O-Of course I had a mother! Where did you think I came from? You believe that I popped out of nowhere or something like a dungeon monster?!” Beelzebub reprimanded me, as he continued eating. He was a temperamental fellow, more grumpy than even Ignatius.
