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

Chapter 725 A Dark Nightmare...

-----

A nightmare that kept repeating every week, a terrifying nightmare he couldnʼt forget.

He found himself within an endless sea of darkness, lost. He watched everywhere, trying to find an exit.

Wherever he glanced to, enormous and monstrous figures greeted him, furious demons, giant monsters, savage beasts…

”Oh Great Lord.”

”I greet the Great Lord.”

”The King.”

”The King of All.”

”Awaken!”

”Leave behind your husk!”

”Pupate!”

”Rise!”

”Fight!

”Tear Apart!”

”Destroy!”

The monsters, demons, and beasts all spoke with crude words. Asking the little boy to tear apart, to destroy, to kill, to rise, to evolve, to pupate… The more he ran away, the closer they became, their claws reaching for his little body.

Faster, faster. He had to run faster. He knew he couldnʼt fight them, he knew he couldnʼt win. The only thing he knew is that he had to run from them, these monsters.

These abominations.

They slowly melted into the floor, merging into a gigantic entity, a demon amongst demons, a giant calamity. A being that stepped over the world, and the bringer of doom.

”Leave me alone! Leave me aloneeee! Youʼre not real! Leave me alone!”

The boy cried constantly, curling into the floor as the monstrous giant glared at him with countless eyes.

”I… Am… Real.”

It spoke with a voice that tore through the boyʼs ears.

”No! No! Leave me alone!”

He cried, but the entity only grew furious.

”You… Are…”

”No! Shut up! I am not…!”

”You… ARE…!”

”No! SHUT UP!!!”

”YOU ARE…!”

”NOOO!”

”YOU ARE ME!”

Darkness and blood engulfed the boy, consuming his entire body. His soul, his life, everything. It tore apart his little body piece by piece, and so also his humanity.

It tore apart everything he was, and remade him anew, like a caterpillar pupating into a butterfly.

”AAAAAGGGGHHHH!!!”

Agony spread through his transforming body.

Madness spread into his innocent mind.

The desire to destroy it all.

The desire to take everything away.

The desire… to end it all.

”Kill…”

”Destroy…”

”Kill…”

”Destroy…”

The dark landscape became clearer, as a battlefield where millions of corpses spread over the arid lands. The scent of blood and rotten corpses entered his nostrils.

And a single girl stood in front of him, while everybody else was dead.

A girl with blazing red hair, and dragon-like eyes.

A sword was pointed at him.

”How… how could you do this?” She cried, gritting her teeth.

”No… I didnʼt do this!”

The boy cried, but his voice was not heard.

His body moved on its own, roaring like a beast.

”ROOOOOAAAAAAARRRRR!!!”

A gigantic fist that ended it all flew towards her.

”Stop…”

Drawing closer…

”Stop…!”

And closer…

”STOP!”

And closer.

”STOOOOOP!!!”

CLAAAAAASSSHHHH!!!!

His fist annihilated the girl, turning her into ashes.

The entire world began to fracture.

The continents fell apart.

The seas turbulently evaporated.

The planetʼs crust shattered into pieces.

Everything ended.

”The end… Bring the end!”

”Bring it! Quickly! Hurry!”

”You must complete… the purpose!”

”OUR PURPOSE!”

”No… NO! STOP! UUAAAGH!”

And then, he woke up.

(Sylphyʼs POV)

Due to all the noise I heard coming from the city preparing for my grandmother to come visit us, I had to wake up rather early today. I ended walking to the bathroom and then… hearing my little brother making noises on his room, which was right next to mine.

”Uuggh…! No! Uagh!”

He was having a nightmare. Not so long ago he used to sleep with my parents but lately he wanted to have his own room. They werenʼt able to change his mind at all.

”Zephy?”

I walked inside his room, seeing him struggle to sleep.

He was having a very nasty nightmare, his entire body was emanating a red and black aura, it seemed to be because of the stress he felt.

”Zephy!” I cried. ”Wake up, dear! Little brother!” I called for him, quickly using magic to calm his heart.

”Unnggh… Sniff…” He started crying, until he slowly opened his eyes. ”A-Ah… Big sis…?”

”Zephy!” I hugged him. It felt so sad he was having such a terrible nightmare when heʼs such a tiny little boy.

”Are you okay?” I asked. ”You were having a very nasty nightmare it seems.”

”A-Ahh… Y-Yeah…” He sighed, hugging me back, and rubbing his face on my chest. ”Sorry, did I wake you up?”

”Not at all, donʼt worry.” I sighed. ”Actually, the noise outside was getting really annoying.”

”A-Ah, right...” He nodded faintly, I quickly cleansed his tears and gave him a kiss on his little nose.

”Do you feel better now?” I asked him.

”A bit better…” He said, hugging me. ”I want to stay with big sister for a bit…”

”Aw, sure…” I smiled, hugging him back and resting over his bed.

He hugged me tightly, as if we havenʼt seen each other in years for some reason.

”What kind of nightmare were you having?” I wondered.

Zephy looked worried about telling me the nightmare.

He seemed… rather scared of it, actually.

”N-Nothing… Donʼt mind it…”

”Come on, tell me. Itʼs not like Iʼm going to get mad. It is just a nightmare, theyʼre not real things at the end of the day.”

Zephy sighed, nodding faintly.

”I-I… I dreamed I became a big monster…” He sighed.

”A-A big monster?” I wondered.

Now that was a unique dream.

”There were… other monsters there, they forced me to become a big monster. And… And… Then I was… destroying everything… And it made me sad because I would never do that… You were there too, big sis.” He cried.

”M-Me?” I asked.

”You were there… A-And I… that monster I became it… it killed you.” He cried. ”Iʼm sorry!”

”Eh? You donʼt have to be sorry.” I sighed. ”It was just a bad nightmare. Maybe I annoyed you or something and you just had something like that as a dream, haha.”

”N-No, you never annoy me… I love you very much big sis…” He cried. ”I-I will never hurt you… never!”

”Geez, calm down, itʼs okay.” I laughed. ”Well! It was quite the dream but, nowʼs time to just face our reality. Our annoying grandmaʼs coming, remember?”

”A-Ah, right… Ugh.” He sighed.

”Yeah, hahaha…” I laughed nervously.
