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

Chapter 817 Ambushed!

-----

(Sylphy's POV)

After having meet Elise within that small time frame, we all woke up. The first thing we thought was to move to the ruins and meet with Luck, who should be walking out of it as of now. However, before we could even reach our goal, the entire ground around us trembled furiously.

The earth opened, as a huge hole appeared, and from within, dozens of giant demonic insectoid monsters were summoned! It was the same sight that had happened before. Were they tracking us this entire time?

But if that was the case, we would had realized where they were! Unless… They were somehow watching over us through other methods. Maybe with some sort of magic tool?

"Monsters?! No… those damn demonic bugs again?!" My father reacted as I expected, he was already quite fed up with their bullshit.

"This is already getting old; can't they just stop for a while?" Shade wondered.

"Give me a break…" Sighed uncle Arafunn.

RUMBLE!

And from within the swarm of monsters emerging from within the hole, a gigantic centipede-like insectoid demon appeared, it had a human-like torso with muscular arms and a big bug head.

"Mind if I take those treasures for myself, young lad~?" He glared directly at Luck, who was just meters away from us!

"Y-You damn bugs again!" Luck said, gritting his teeth in anger.

"Naturally so~! We've been watching you for a little while with our tamed bugs." Laughed the centipede demon, extending his arms as countless small bugs flew into his hands. "Isn't it amazing? You couldn't even tell!"

"If you retreat now, we won't hurt you." My father suddenly said. "We don't want more battle. Please, just stop."

"Huh? And who are you anyways?" The insect spoke, without recognizing the heroes. "I have only come to pick up the treasures that kid took! If any of you get in the way then… No, never mind, I'll kill you even if you don't get in the way! GYAHAHAH!"

Wait, he doesn't know about the heroes? But how? Literally every single demon that is allied to the old demon lords know about them! Unless this guy… It is like all the other demons and were just recently born as monster demon hybrids?

"They don't know about us? Well, that's? a relief yet it makes me strangely concerned…" My father said.

"Hm, I think I know why… Much like the other guys we've fought, they were born just recently, more than conventional demon tribes, they're artificially created monsters given some sort of intelligence. Though, I think they might lack most of it." My uncle sighed.

"This… Might probably mean that Arachne has little followers, and most of her forces have been created by her magic…" Shade analyzed.

"Enough of your chitter chatter! RAAAAHHH!!"

Before we could even think about what was happening, he quickly moved. Swinging half of his long body against all of us. The hundreds of legs he had suddenly became as sharp as knives, slicing apart any surrounding tree.

SLAAAAAASSSSH!

TRUUUUUUMMMM…!

The entire surroundings shook terribly, but we all managed to escape in time, jumping away from the destructive attacks. But it seemed that's exactly what he wanted. A dozen of bugs quickly surrounded Luck and the Fenrir.

"Now! Quickly tear them apart!" He ordered, while concentrating his attention towards us. His many legs beginning to crackle metallically, as his aura continued growing stronger. "While my powerful servants tear them to shreds, I'll take care of you lot!"

Ding!

[The [Demonic Insectoid Centipede: Centiphedius (Tier 8: Rank 5)] has exuded a powerful [Aura of Demonic Dominion]!]

[All of his Stats have temporarily increased by +100% until his Mana runs out.]

[Additionally, increases the Stats of servants by +50%.]

FLASH!

His tail suddenly opened a gigantic claw, and then with rapid swiftness, he pointed it towards us, unleashing a barrage of piercing attacks!

CRASH! CRASH! CRASH! CRAAASH!

At the same time, several magic circles appeared one after another around his body, summoning enormous spears made of darkness.

"[Abyssal Spear Rain]!"

BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOOM!

Each spear not only was really strong, easily piercing through most things, but once making contact with something, they even exploded!

However, my father, Shade, and Arafunn stepped forward before Aquarina, my friends, or I could do anything against him.

"You're really hurting my feelings for not knowing who I am…" Sighed my father.

"Well, it is better that way." Shade said.

"We gave you the opportunity to run, yet you choose to try to kill us. I think we are allowed to do as we please now, right?" Uncle Arafunn smiled.

"Huh?! You're unharmed?!" Centiphedius was shocked. "But I am a Tier 8 Rank 5 Demon! I am invincible!"

"Sorry but that makes you far from invincible." Laughed my father.

"Don't lower your guard though, Allan." Shade said.

"Hmm, you're certainly stronger than the others, but not as strong as the mosquito guy that attacked our city… And he still meet a terrible fate." Uncle Arafunn laughed.

FLASH! FLASH! FLASH!

All three of them jumped into battle. My father summoned his Soul Weapon, the Infernal Spiritual Sword he was always capable of summoning, swinging it vertically and horizontally, and unleashing slashing blows of pure explosive flames.

SLASH! SLASH! SLAAASH!

BOOM! BOOM! BOOOM!

"AARGH…! UNGH…!"

The huge centipede quickly realized my father was serious business when his attacks quickly burned through his exoskeleton easily, and even started tearing down his legs one after another!

Meanwhile, Shade moved swiftly with both of his knives, his body overflowing with a Shadow and Abyssal Aura together, as he constantly transformed into shadows and reappeared behind the beast, raining countless slashing attacks against him, charged with deadly curses.

SLASH! SLASH! SLASH! SLASH! SLAAASH!

Centiphedius constantly tried to catch him while he was in midair, but in the last second, Shad always managed to become a mass of shadows and escape his grasp.

"RAAAARGGH! Y-YOU DAMN PESTS!" He roared in frustrating, only for him to be attacked even harder by a gigantic burst of spiraling, slicing winds coming from my uncle's flute, his magic relic.

"[Melody of Storms]!"

FLUOOOOOOSSSH!

"AAARGGH…!"
