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

To roleplay more as a teacher, Aquarina went out of her way to inspect her friends’ fighting styles and how they resolved problems through battling. She saw that Silvia’s movements were too quick and her hammer wouldn’t follow her as she wanted as it was quite heavy. Meanwhile, Justicio put too much force into his swings, making it so his entire body was focused into that one attack, making him vulnerable for attacks on the back while he fought a foe.

She instantly compared them with her friends and found out just how stronger they were in comparison… Zack, someone she thought was “a fine warrior at most” ended changing in her eyes as she realized just how amazing he was with axes.

And Zack didn’t just wield one but two huge ones, and moved dexterously, quickly, and knew how to move his body and all of its limitations. He was also always cautious of attacks from other sides, his Axe Martial Arts were evolving at an incredible pace.

“Silvia balance your body better!” Aquarina said. “Strengthen your body strength and weight to match your hammer.”

“O-Okay?” Silvia nodded.

Her Aura flickered around her body, rapidly converging with her lean muscles, making her heavier as a result, she swung her hammer, much better than before without losing her balance.

“Oh! It works?”

At the same time, Aquarina also told something similar to Justicio, who was handling the statue on his own, but was being constantly pushed back.

“Justicio, concentrate on smaller, quicker attacks,” Aquarina said. “Perhaps try to not put everything you’ve got into a hit until the last moment instead of charging head-first.”

“Huh? Ok?”

Justicio nodded as he did as Aquarina said, and surprisingly, it worked. The moment he did more smaller attacks and was able to evade enemy blows easier, he was able to hit the joints of the statue and concentrate his strength “on the last moment” allowing him to release enough power to destroy the golem’s legs instantly.

“Pyuku, Agua, always concentrate on your foes, don’t let them escape or move!” Aquarina said.

Pyuku and Agua realized the golems cunningly grabbed the tridents the moment they fell and swung them upwards, aiming to impale Silvia and Justicio from below.

CLAAASH!

However, Pyuku’s big punches and Agua’s water magic destroyed the incoming attacks, blowing away the tridents before they could do anything significant.

“Crush their cores!”

As Aquarina said, her friends destroyed the golem’s cores, making them completely fall into silence, they were utterly finished.

“It’s done!” Silvia celebrated. “Oh wow, I’ve never fought golems like those. They were weirdly dexterous.”

“Yeah, statue-type golems can move with dexterity and even agility due to their large humanoid frames,” explained Aquarina. “You gotta be careful when fighting them! Of course not me I could punch them and they’ll be dead.”

“Uh-huh, well, thanks for the tips, I guess they did help a little,” Justicio nodded. “Wait do these cores have any value?”

“They should…” said Aquarina, storing them inside her ring. “Hmm, the tridents too, they’re made of hard metal, an alloy combination of tiny bits of Orichalcum and Mithril, very expensive. It is often times called Golden Mithril, although it doesn’t occur naturally.”

“Oh wow, sounds great,” said Silvia. “I wonder if we could wield one of those tridents?”

“I mean, it’s better if you stick with your Soul Weapon,” said Aquarina. “It’s the first time I see someone being able to manifest one so easily and quick as you do, and so early as well. It’s probably one of your talents, Silvia.”

“Really?!” the girl gasped. “Oh wow! Maybe I’m really amazing then!”

“Don’t let that get over your head though…” Justicio glared at her with squinting eyes.

“Now the treasure chest! Can I open it?” Agua asked. “Oh wait, let me drown it inside a bubble first to see if its real or not.”

“Hey, that’s good idea!” Aquarina nodded. “Go ahead.”

“Yaaay!”

Agua ran towards the treasure chest, created a bubble, and lifted it up within the bubble.

For a moment, they stared at the bubble in complete silence, as the treasure chest began releasing bubbles of its own from its interior.

But after a minute or two, there wasn’t any response.

“Okay, drop it then,” Aquarina nodded. “It most likely has no mimic, but just in case I’ll go open it.”

“S-Sure!” Agua nodded obediently.

Aquarina went towards the treasure chest, touching the wooden exterior, which had nothing strange about it, and then she opened it.

Creaaak…!

And what was inside weren’t disgusting fleshy tentacles, but a pile of gold and silver coins, a few ingots of Mithril, three Potions, and one equipment piece.

“Oh wow, big haul! Come look over here!”

Her friends ran to see what she saw, surprised.

“A lot of coins…!” Silvia said.

“Wait, is that a helmet? No way, can I keep it?!” Justicio asked.

“There’s ingots and potions inside as well…” Agua analyzed.

“The helmet?” Aquarina wondered, grabbing the golden and blue helmet inside the treasure chest. “Hmmm, what do you guys think? Should we give it to him?”

“Sure!” Silvia nodded. “Justicio needs some extra gear.”

“It’s fine by me,” shrugged Pyuku.

“Go ahead!” Agua said.

“Alright, there you go,” Aquarina gave the helmet to Justicio.

The helmet’s shape and design were quite unique, resembling the beautiful spiraling shell of a giant mollusk, made of blue steel and gold decorations, a true relic of the past long forgotten.

“Uooh!” Justicio equipped the helmet, instantly feeling stronger. “So this is what it feels to have equipment, huh?”

“What’s wrong?” asked Silvia. “Do you feel weirder or different by just equipping it?”

“I feel a bit stronger!” said Justicio. “But above all, I feel like my Mana expanded a bit more and my Senses… Especially my Sight, Smell, and Hearing became… sharper?”

“I guess it comes with a nice little enchantment,” Aquarina nodded. “Let’s get going then!”

After packing all the treasure, they finally arrived at a staircase leading down.

“This must lead to the Second Floor…” Agua said. “Mother never explored past this area. So it’s a mystery what await us. Please let’s be careful.”

“M-My ornament! It’s definitely down there! Hurry!” Khepri was going insane.
