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

115 Ninhursag, The Skin Changer

—–

Well, a lot of things had happened today...

But to sum it all up so it doesn’t become convoluted and confusing, I had gone out with Aquarina and Zack to explore the wilderness, mapping it with my Memory Paper. Coincidentally, we found the entrance to the small dungeon I’ve been looking for all this time.

When we got there, I found a hidden passage, broke it, and found our creepy new friend, Furoh, a Shapeshifting Demon who was discriminated by his fellow demons a few years ago, well... probably since he was born.

He ran out of the demon army into this jungle long ago, running away from conflicts before hiding inside this dungeon he found, far away from any civilization.

He had been staying here for a few years now, but began to starve. When he tried to run away, he discovered that the dungeon had suddenly sealed him shut inside a secret room.

I’ve heard that dungeons were like living beings. They absorbed mana and produce monsters to kill invaders with treasures to lure them inside. I suppose this dungeon saw him as a threat and trapped him to die out of starvation.

He had been hibernating for some time now as he tried to not starve to death... someone had ended up entering this hidden room by accident when he activated a trap, apparently, but he was already almost dead and unconscious, so Furoh ate him to survive. I can’t blame him, though. The guy was already dying, and he probably waited for him to go out before eating him.

At least he was polite enough to leave his bones well-arranged at the side...

.....

Anyways, he acted as if he were a stereotypical demon to intimidate us so we could run away in fear, and then he could head out of the dungeon from the entrance we opened.

But he ended up realizing he wasn’t going to run away from me.

Or well, he still did at the end, even when I asked him to become my friend and familiar.

In any case, I simply couldn’t let him go.

Well, in the end, I caught him right before he was eaten by a giant Lightning Tyrannosaur, who chased us down all the way here.

She even crossed the barrier made by the legendary Witch of the Blue Mountain...

Then again, although it seemed threatening at the start, it began playing around with us and testing us with her abilities, as if she was forcing us to exercise and use our mana to evade her attacks.

And like this, we discovered it was actually a skin-changing woman!

Wow....

This really was a day to remember.

Two amazing things happened in a single day. I guess this is quite the memorable day.

Also, she’s super pretty, and looked like a goddess, judging from the bright aura of life she exuded.

It felt like her magical aura was shaped as countless wild beasts that roared, all of them greeting us.

She told us she’s one of the lasts of her kind... interesting.

Plus, she also told us she was trying to kill this demon and that’s why she had attempted several times to bite me. However, it was actually trying to bite Furoh, not me.

Whew, it was still a bit dangerous. I would guess she’s quite reckless.

But can you blame her? I guess she grew like this under the shape of many beasts...

The funniest thing was that Furoh knew more about her kin than we did...

“You’re so pretty!” Aquarina could not help but say as her eyes shone brightly.

The lady looked at her with a gentle and motherly smile as she petted her head.

“Not as pretty as you, dear,” she said in response.

“Heheh...” Aquarina giggled while blushing. This lady was indeed stunningly beautiful, I had to admit. Were all skin changers this pretty?

“W-Who are you though?” Zack asked, speaking after recovering a bit from all the exercise the lady forced him to do.

“My name’s Ninhursag. I am one of the lasts of my ancient race, the Skin-changers... I live in this entire jungle and make sure to kill vermin who get in without my permission. I’ve been looking for a particular demon I had sensed a couple of years ago, but since then, I lost his track. To think that he would end up in that little dungeon over there...” sighed the beautiful lady, named Ninhursag. Her charcoal-black skin shone brightly under the rays of the sun.

The tattoos across her body made her resemble a mystical shaman lady, but she was also packed with strong and slim muscles. Her belly had a massive six pack... making her close to Aquarina’s mom! I think they could become good friends... Although she really liked to show off her body, seeing how she’s barely covering the tip of her breasts and using a loincloth down there.

I guess if one was a person with the ability to shapeshift into beasts, using clothes would be a pain because they would always get in the way, and would be constantly breaking as one transformed... perhaps these clothes were the only things that could remain. If not, she might just go around while being nude. I’ve found many pretty women out there, but this lady... she was very pretty, I never thought I would feel this much attraction to a woman like now. I had liked a boy in my previous life, and I believed I was still strongly attracted to males but... wow, she’s so sexy!

“Hmm~? Why are you all just staring at me so intensively? Is there something you like?” she asked with a playful smile, slowly getting closer to us.

“I-It’s nothing...” I replied.

“N-Not at all!” said Aquarina.

“A-Ah... yeah...” murmured Zack.

I guess we were all stunned by her.

“Ahem! Are you guys fine or something? Don’t fall for her charms! She’s a monster! Don’t trust her! She wanted to eat me! Also, wasn’t she trying to kill you all a few seconds ago? Wake up!” cried Furoh, interrupting the awkward scene.
