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

Chapter 576 A Carefree Time In The River

-----

As all four of us were left to wash ourselves in here while the food was getting ready, I took out some shampoo I had made from essential herb oils and stuff and decided to wash the girlʼs hair with it.

”Come on you three, Iʼll wash your hair so it can always be shiny.”

The shampoo had a sweet and floral aroma.

”Me first! Me first!”

Mist rushed towards me while being completely naked, as she sat down over a stone in the middle of the river.

”Alright then, your hair is very beautiful Mist, Iʼll make sure to be careful.”

”Hehehe…”

Mist began giggling playfully as I washed her long and fluffy hair.

Seriously, is this girl a sheep anime instead?! Her white hair is way too fluffy!

SPLASH!

I summoned a big amount of water using the [Water Bullet] Spell and then washed Mist hair from the shampoo. Her fluffy hair quickly became long and not as spongy as before, she looked like a completely different girl.

”And now… [Breeze] and [Heat].”

FLUOOSH!

By combining the Breeze Spell and the Heat Spell, it is possible to conjure a warm breeze of wind that can easily dry out hair. Her hair quickly got spongy and fluffy again.

POOF!

”Ooh! It is so soft and shiny now! Thanks a lot Sylphy!”

Mist hugged me as I gave her a kiss in her forehead, she was too cute to resist.

”Itʼs nothing dear, we are besties after all!”

”Yeah! Let me wash your back now!”

Mist quickly rushed behind me as she started to use some soap she had to wash my back.

”W-Well, if you want to so much, be my guest. Whoʼs next?” I asked.

”M-Me of course!” Aquarina ran towards me and looked at Mist with slightly jealous eyes.

I guess its normal if she gets a bit like this after I gave Mist a kiss in her forehead, but it was more because Mist is like my little friend I canʼt stop but loving due to being cute.

But itʼs nothing romantic, also its pretty clear Mist likes Zack, so I donʼt know what sheʼs getting so worried about.

”Come on, Aqua, relax for a bit~” I gave her a kiss in her cheek. ”Youʼre so pretty~ Donʼt pout like that.”

”S-Sure… I am not angry or anything, w-where are you getting that from?” Aquarina crossed her arms while looking elsewhere.

”Hehehe, you two are very close.” Mist giggled behind me. ”Celeste always says youʼre girlfriends! Is it true?”

”Eh?!”

Aquarina and I were left slightly surprised after Mist said that so carefreely.

”T-Thatʼs…” Aquarina began fidgeting a bit.

”Err, well, anyways! Mist, thanks for washing my back. How about you go wash Celesteʼs back?” I asked her.

”Right!” Mist nodded, rushing towards Celeste.

”Sorry about that, I shouldnʼt had gotten a bit weird myself.” Aquarina said. ”I am tired…”

”Well just rest in here and Iʼll wash you…” I began washing her long and beautiful silver white hair while humming relaxedly.

Then I gave her a nice massage in her shoulders.

”You were pretty great in that fight, did you use some new powers?” I wondered.

”Yeah! I combined the abilities I gained from the new Divine Protections. You too, right?” Aquarina asked.

”Indeed, the power I got from Hyperion makes me stronger while bathing in the sunlight.” I told her.

”Eh?! Thatʼs a bit too powerful…” Aquarina was surprised.

”What about you?” I wondered.

”Oh well, I…”

As Aquarina explained things to me, I suddenly felt a presence approaching.

The river waters began trembling, as Curse and Beelzebub that were on watch freaked out.

”Sylphy, somethingʼs coming!”

SPLAAAASH!

An enormous limb hit the water right where we were, as I grabbed Aquarina and managed to jump away from the scene, only to find dozens of white tentacles emerge from under the riverʼs depths!

It was a giant… wait, it was a squid?! I didnʼt knew there were Squids in Rivers!

”GRUUUUUOOH!”

The monstrous Squid began shaking the river furiously, its tentacles smacking into the water and shaking the river completely.

”A monster again?!” Celeste asked in shock, grabbing Mist, and flying over her Magic Spear to safety.

”Thatʼs a… It is a Tier 3 Monster, Giant River Squid. Theyʼre strong and territorial. We might had begun to wash inside of their territory. They get aggressive because they wait for a mate, most of the time.” I sighed. ”I always thought squids could only show up in the sea.”

I used my Eyes of Analysis to quickly discern the beast.

”I guess we canʼt even take a break in a river now. This placeʼs really a wilderness.” Celeste sighed.

”GRUOOH!” The squid roared furiously.

”Then I guess we have to beat it!” Mist pointed her finger at the monster from afar, gathering Mana into it. ”Light Magic: [Light Cannon]!”

FLAAAASH!

An enormous blast of light emerged from Mistʼs fingers, reaching the squid and hitting its head!

BOOOOMMMM!!!

”W-What?!” Celeste was shocked.

”Where did you got that power from!?” I asked.

”Y-Yeah?” Aquarina asked.

”Huh? I used my buffing spells on myself, Iʼve got a few magic buffs too! It always makes my magic stronger for a bit.” Mist smiled. ”…Though I feel hungry afterwards.”

Mist probably used her [Super Boost] on herself. I guess someone that wasnʼt that good at offensive magic like her can become a magic cannon with such a spell.

”GRUOOOHHH!”

However, the Squid was way more resilient, shaking the water angrily. Then, it pointed its open beak at us and unleashed a wave of ink!

SPLAAASH!

”Uaagh!” Mist cried in disgust.

”[Shadow Bubble]!” Celeste conjured a bubble of shadows to protect us. ”This is some high quality ink!”

CLAAASH!

We were safe from getting all inked.

”Well, then! Let me do this. Iʼll show you how strong I am! As long as thereʼs tons of water to use…” Aquarina smiled, flying down.

”Wait, Aquarina!” I called for her, but she wanted to show off.

”Divine Water Magic: [Oceanus Domain]!”

SPLAAAASH!

The riverʼs water suddenly responded to Aquarinaʼs spell, as it started moving.

It felt as if the entire river became a living being by itself!
