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

Chapter 628 A Trap-Filled Dungeon

-----

I quickly took out a small Fire Spirit Stone from my Dimensional Bag and feed it to Scarlet without caring much if it were to work or not…

FLASH!

The blade quickly absorbed the piece of Spirit Stone, without any problems, it gained a slight amount of power, as if something powerful was flowing through the swordʼs entire blade.

Ding!

[Scarlet] has absorbed [Fire Spirit Stone] x1!]

[Scarlet] MP has increased by +25]

[Scarlet] Magic has increased by +25]

[The [Blazing Sword] Skill has gained a large amount of Skill Proficiency.]

Ooh, so thatʼs how it works, it really makes her stronger, bit by bit… Maybe I should overfeed her with tons of materials once weʼre done with our dungeon exploration. And come to think of it, thereʼs two more Skills I havenʼt checked...

-----

[Blazing Sword: Lv1]

By imbuing Mana into the Sword, blazing flames of incredible potency will emerge, which become stronger based in the current Fire Element Runes of the wielderʼs Magic Circle. These flames can be controlled and unleashed in a series of different attacks and techniques, which will deal an additional +60% More Damage, with an additional +20% with each Skill Level. When imbued with an element, the Flames can change into different types of Flames.

-----

[Demonic Aura: Lv1]

The sign that a sword has been tainted with a True Demonʼs Essence. By infusing Mana into the sword, the blade can unleash an intimidating and powerful Demonic Aura that also enhances damage dealt by +50% and can drain 25% of the damage dealt as HP, each Skill Level increases these effects by +10%.

-----

And the last two Skills I had yet to check were offensive ones, I see. Blazing Sword is indeed powerful and combines great with Blade Aura Slash. Meanwhile Demonic Aura seems to be something similar, yet it also brings an Intimidation Effect? This sword packed more powers than I could had expected.

Hmm… Now letʼs see what happens if I give you a small Water Spirit Stone now…

Ding!

[Scarlet] has absorbed [Water Spirit Stone] x1!]

[Scarlet] MP has increased by +5]

[Scarlet] Magic has increased by +5]

[This Material doesnʼt have much compatibility with [Scarlet]…]

Oh, I see… Materials with less compatibility will give little stats and perhaps none, while those with high compatibility might end up giving tons of bonus stats, if I am understanding everything correctly.

So the swordʼs highest compatibility are fire attribute materials, Iʼll have to find those in specific, I suppose. For now Iʼll leave it at that though, I would like to try out more gear getting status, but it would be a bit chaotic if I do them all at once, so itʼll be for later.

Our surroundings were of a beautiful caves. There were colorful corals growing around the tunnel we reached, and we could hear the sound of water flowing everywhere as well. There were starfishes stuck in the walls, and we even saw small fishes swimming in the pools of salty water.

And of course, red, and blue colored crystals, Fire and Water Spirit Stones, were growing everywhere around us, utilizing their light to naturally illuminate our path. This area was known as the Fishman Kingʼs Lair, or something like that, it was a cave-type dungeon with only three floors in total.

The first one was a large section of multiple interconnected caves, the second floor was filled with pools of water where dangerous aquatic monsters ambushed people that walk near them, forming kind of a labyrinth where you need to avoid them, and then the last floor is an underground ruin which is known as the Fishman Kingʼs Castle.

”So this placeʼs pretty empty, whereʼs the monsters at?” Aquarina wondered, we were already five minutes into the caveʼs corridors, walking around and giving turns here and there. It was a small labyrinth by itself.

”Dungeons are not just monsters, they have traps as well, you should be careful.” I said to Aquarina. ”Watch on every step you take.”

”Okay, I get it.” Aquarina nodded.

TRUUUMMM…!

However, she really didnʼt hear me when I told her to be careful.

Right beneath her feet a magic circle activated, and then the ground below crumbled, as a large quantity of water emerged, a pond!

”Huh?!”

Aquarina began falling into the pond, suddenly finding hundreds of piranha-like fishes in there, opening their jaws happily at a new meal being offered to them in a silver plate.

”This is a trap?!” Aquarina felt surprised. ”Ugh, that was way too cheap!”

She quickly swung her knives, as waves of water began dancing around, lifting her from falling into the water, although the piranha fishes tried to jump towards her, attempting to take a bite before she could leave.

”[Blazing Sword]!”

However, I sneaked a powerful blazing sword attack right before they could get Aquarina, burning through the Piranhas, as the flames reached deep underground into the trapʼs pits, boiling the water and the piranhas altogether.

FLUOOOOSH!

The steam surged from the pitʼs depths, as it covered the entire place, the smell of boiled fish soup quickly filled our nostrils…

”Phew, that was close…” Aquarina sighed in relief, looking around. ”Ah! Sylphy did you do that yourself?!”

”Yeah more or less.” I giggled. ”This swordʼs pretty strong, thatʼs all at the end.”

”So that was a trap, we couldnʼt even detect it.” Zack analyzed the situation.

”This Dungeonʼs in another level than the one at Eastgrain, that one was pretty much a beginner dungeon. Sneaky traps like these are dangerous, imagine if you got devoured by thousands of tiny fishes.” Said Celeste.

”Uuggh, I donʼt know if I want to imagine that Celeste!” Mist sighed.

”Yeah sounds awful…” Celica said. ”Huh? Mister Teddy, what is it?”

Suddenly, Celicaʼs Teddy bear golem began walking towards some place, touching a colorful, red-colored coral.

TRUUUUMM!

And then, a secret door opened right in the wall! Wait, how did that golem found it before any of us did? Does it have special senses or something? Well, I would bet it does.

”A secret door! Where does it leads? Huh, a tiny room?” Mist peeked into the small room.

However, there was something at the end of it!
