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

Chapter 834 Ambush

?

-----

Right before we could enjoy our breakfast properly, trouble arose. I honestly was surprised of how peaceful things were, these bugs are very persistent, and to think they gave us almost two days of peace was amazing.

But I guess things cannot be so easy, can't they? And this time, instead of two centipedes, our attacker was a huge talking worm, resembling something like the sand worms I've seen in monster encyclopedias back home, with its head holding the small humanoid torso of a really fat and ugly guy, with a jawless, circular mouth filled with fangs, similarly to the one in the worm head…

"RAHAHAHAHA! I'VE FINALLY FOUND YOU, HEROES! NOW, MY CHILDREN, COME AND FEAST ON THEM!"

RUMBLE!

Before we could even comment on what was happening, the entire forest surrounding our little house trembled even more, dozens of enormous Sand Worms popped out of the ground one after another.

"GRUOOOHHHHH!"

"SHAAAAARGHH!"

"GRYYEEEEEHHH!!!"

"How annoying." Uncle Arafunn yawned, drinking from his cup of tea, as he waved his hand. "[Divine Tempest Barrier]"

A second before all the Sand Worms were to destroy the house I had created, their heads ended hitting a huge barrier made out of spiraling divine winds, which quickly left ugly wounds over their faces.

CLASH! CLASH! CRAAASH!

"Phew, you saved us there, Arafunn." Luck sighed in relief.

"Well, isn't this a good opportunity to try out our strength though?" Asked Zack, cracking his knuckles. "They're all Tier 7, I think. That big guy is at least Tier 8 though."

"THIS BARRIER CANNOT PROTECT YOU FOREVER!"

The monstrous Sand Worm Demon roared, hitting it with his huge body. His jaws suddenly opened, unleashing a destructive beam of pure darkness, the barrier barely moved though, it was really tough!

BOOOOOOOMMM!!!

"UGH?! DAMMIT!"

It was struggling quite a lot… Usually Uncle Arafunn doesn't set that strong of a barrier, he must have been really pissed off he was interrupted while enjoying his morning herbal tea mix.

"Can you kids go take care of it?" Uncle asked. "Allan, Shade, this time leave it all to them, they've grown strong enough already."

"Well, if you say so." My father nodded. "Sylphy, take care of Luck for us."

"Go for it, Aquarina." Shade said calmly.

"Sheesh, any other person would be panicking a lot right now but you three are so relaxed." I sighed. "Being the heroes children have really killed our common sense…"

"Hahaha." Aquarina laughed a bit. "Well, let's go!"

She quickly leaped into action, as I followed her closely. For now, I didn't wanted to reveal my Dungeon Abilities, and I wanted my monsters to grow stronger before anything else happens.

"Well, I guess we got no other option." Sighed Celeste. "Time to do some warm-up exercise!"

"Eeeh? I have barely eaten my third plate of pancakes though…" Mist complained, although she still joined us.

"Maybe it should be about time I build more friends…" Celica wondered, walking out of the house.

"AHA! YOU'VE COME TO YOUR DEATHS, CHILDREN?! PERFECT! THIS'LL MAKE THINGS EASIER!" 

The big worm guy was really strange, however, he was still an intelligent… person, even if he was part of the Swarm. The bare minimum I could do is tell him to retreat.

"Please retreat while you can. We won't chase you down… This is not the way, you don't have to obey Arachne, you have your own life! Don't waste it away like this!" I said. "Please, just-"

BAAAAAMMM..!

"LIKE I CARE WHAT YOUR STUPID WORDS MEAN! I'LL KILL YOU ALL AND EAT YOU! HAHAHA!"

He was completely brainless and acted very much like a barbarian. All of the insectoid demons we've meet since the Nymph Goddesses Ruins Dungeon has been like this.

They seem completely different than other Demons we've fought, they are… very basic in mind, and seem to just be puppets. It makes me pity them a bit because they might be controlled.

But at the same time, their monstrosity and what they've done against the many innocents they've killed cannot be forgiven.

If they're so hellbent into killing us all to the point they would rather die than surrender or escape… Then there's no point in trying anymore.

"Don't say I didn't gave you a chance." I sighed, leaping into action, as my entire body surged with the power of Sunshine and my Yggdragon Aura combined together. "Ignatius! Naturia! Give me your strength!"

"Okay! Got it!" Ignatius roared, imbuing himself into my Aura.

"Okaaay! Fofoo!" Naturia nodded, doing the same.

FLUOOOOOOSH!

My entire body slightly transformed into a slightly older form thanks to the power of the Sunshine Ability within the Heavenly Sun Skill, sunlight was really strong this morning, and that coupled with the might of my Yggdragon Aura made for a killer combination.

My eyes blazed with angered flames, as my hair became blazing fire, my fists overflowed with draconic aura, as I swung them while claws and scales grew on my hands and then across my arm and body.

"[Infernal Dragon Claw]!"

SLAAAAAAAASSSH!

A powerful blazing slash reached the Sand Worm Demon, hitting his huge, monstrous body with a tremendous, explosive might, his body squirmed, thrown several meters away!

BAAAAMM…!

"URGH?! YOU DAMN… BITCH!"

TRUUUMM…!

Suddenly, a darker aura surged from his body, as he started exuding a Demonic power akin to True Demons! A red jewel shining on his chest said it all. 

The power of this red jewel, which was most likely a True Demon Core Shard made his body overflow with might, as he was covered by a hard, red colored exoskeleton armor.

"I'LL CRUSH YOU AND EAT YOU ALL!"

Ding!

[The [Giant Sandworm Demon: Gregeronth (Tier 8)] has undergone [True Demonification]!]

[His wounds are beginning to heal at a rapid pace, and all of his stats have increased by +200%!]

[Additionally, a deadly [Aura of Demonic Pressure] is weakening all of his foes, decreasing All Stats by -30% and draining all nearby foes Health by 0.1% with each second!]

"No, that is not going to work anymore!" I roared, unleashing my own Yggdragon Aura everywhere, clashing against the Aura of Demonic Pressure!

CRAAAAASH!

Ding!

[The power of the [Yggdragon Aura] has overpowered the [Aura of Demonic Pressure], cancelling its effects!]

"W-WHAT?!"
