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

469 Lilith’s Defeat

—–

I concentrated within my blade and my arms all the teachings I was given by my father, as I closed my eyes and gritted my teeth. My aura exploded, unleashing a gigantic dragon that boosted the speed and strength of my blade once more, finally managing to get through the crystal’s incredible endurance!

Crack…! CRACK!

“Demon… BREAKER!”

CRAAASH!

The True Demon Core began to gain countless of cracks constantly, as if it were a never-ending chain reaction. In mere seconds, the entire crystal ball shattered into pieces, as an enormous quantity of Demonic Energy exploded out like red smoke.

“Nnngghh?! AAAGGGGGHHHHH…!”

Lilith’s scream resonated across the entire noble district; her True Demon Core was truly shattered this time!

I immediately used my wings to fly away to not let the Demonic Essence capture me, as I saw from afar how Lilith’s entire body completely grew pale and lifeless. Was that really the way to kill True Demons?

…..

“YOUUUUU…!”

However, to my expectations, that wasn’t it!

An enormous phantom made of red energy emerged before my eyes, it was Lilith! Did she just became a ghost now?!

“I’ll take you to Hell with me!” Lilith’s phantasmal claws reached up to me, grasping my entire body. She easily shattered the barriers my mother set over me, as her darkness and demonic energy suddenly began to take over my entire body.

Pain and agony began to quickly take over all my senses, as my eyes began to bleed and feel like they were about to burst, my mouth continuously was vomiting blood and I felt as if all my insides were twisting and exploding one after the other!

“Nnnggh…! L-Let go of me!”

“I’ll crush your insides! Suffer, scream, and cry!”

I couldn’t help but scream like a mad dog with everything I had, furiously unleashing countless divine flames, or anything I could possibly use. Lilith’s phantom seemed strangely more resilient than her own body!

“Sylphy!!!” Alice and everybody else cried, as I couldn’t free myself from Lilith’s grasp no matter how hard I tried, and all my familiars seemed completely sealed by her powers too.

“How are you not dead yet?! I am sure that I infected you with Demonic Miasma! What is this…? AGH?!”

Suddenly, from within the depths of my very soul, a sphere of pure darkness opened its single red eye. His chained body quickly freed itself, as a malicious smile surged on his large and serrated mouth.

It was the Curse.

Ding!

[Large quantities of pure Negative Energy and Foreign Essences similar to Negative Energy has been detected.]

[The [Curse of the Devourer of Darkness] has been automatically activated.]

{Curse}: [Curse of the Devourer of Darkness]

A curse that originally was meant to carry the hatred and resentment of an Ancient Demon King and slowly accumulate into a deadly disease that would kill his enemies, one way or another. However, it has been modified to instead, be able to absorb such Negative Energy and devour it, completely destroying it and, at the same time, absorbing its power to grow stronger, enhancing the carrier in the process. The carrier of this curse, however, suffers every time it absorbs this darkness.

This curse…? So it activates whenever it feels like?!

FLUOOOSSSH!

Within the depths of my soul, a black hole opened, and from within, a creepy red eye glared at Lilith, her phantasmal presence suddenly began to be absorbed, syphoned almost completely inside of my own soul.

“AAAAAAGGGH! B-BERITH! ASTAROTH! HELP MEEEEEE!” Lilith began to scream in agony as she tried to crawl away from me, completely scared of my Curse.

However, a sickly smile surged in my lips as I spit a mouthful of blood from my mouth. My eyes were completely destroyed but I could still sense her through my enhanced senses, without even doubting it, I manipulated this darkness within my soul and directed it towards her!

“You’re not going anywhere…!”

“T-This is impossible…! Our bodies when summoned here are merely vessels created by magic, how come you can directly damage my Soul?!”

Lilith began to scream desperately, screaming her lungs out, or well, she didn’t even had lungs anymore. I didn’t respond to her words, as my mind was going numb, the more time I took doing this, the more it felt like I was being bathed in pure agony. One of the aftereffects of absorbing this negative energy was that I also experienced it.

I experienced all of the darkness of Lilith, her lust, her selfishness, her wicked heart. It made me sick, it made me want to tear apart my entire skin. But I bear with it, gritting my teeth until they shattered, and her soul finally was absorbed as her last cries couldn’t be answered by Berith or Astaroth, as both of them were being stopped by my father and Agni.

“NOOOOOOO…!”

Lilith’s last scream resonated across the surrounding ruins, as she suddenly disappeared from within the black hole inside of my soul…

“This is indeed an exquisite meal!”

The laughter of the Curse’s personification could be heard from within the interior of my Soul, as I felt an enormous surge of power take over my body and soul… However, I felt so numb that my body simply fell from the sky, several hundreds of meters above the sky.

POOF!

Suddenly, I felt as if I fell over something very soft and gelatinous.

“We did it Sylphy! Hang in there! I’ll bring you back to your mother!”

I heard the voice of Furoh as he swiftly carried me over his fluffy Fenrir form back, while my spirits seemed to be taking care of me. The sound of explosions, trees growing out of the ground and piercing several monsters and true demons, and the screams of creatures resonated, but I couldn’t see anything.

I felt like passing out at any moment, but I resisted, not wanting to give up yet. I might had somehow killed Lilith, but the battle was far from over…

Until then, I felt the warmth holy light of my mother’s magic alleviating my pained body, as her warm tears fell over my face, and she hugged me and kissed me dearly.

“I-I did it… mom… Like… I promised you..”

“You reckless girl…!” She reprimanded me in between tears. “Yeah… you really did it.”
