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

Chapter 128 A New And Wonderful Sword

-----

The amazing sword I was gifted was nothing short of incredible… it even emanated a strong presence from within. Darkness and shadows flowed out of it constantly, but in a dim form. It wasn't too much either.

After looking at it, I held the sword. It was heavier than my usual sword, but I was still more or less capable of wielding it and carrying it around. The fact that it was heavy didn't matter when my own shoulders and arms had grown very strong after doing so many daily swings with my blade…

It wasn't as heavy as my own size, though. Then again, I'm already able to carry things above my siz through the usage of spells that increase my physical strength.

I'm also at Tier 1, Rank 4 in my Physique, so I'm more than capable of fighting pretty well!

Eventually, I took the blade before raising it upwards.

Infusing mana into it made the blade suddenly turn a purplish black color…

It was quite pretty…

"The blade has a lot of special effects, but you must be careful. It appears that it could even curse those that it hurts, so don't use it to spar with Aquarina or Zack if possible. Make you grow strong enough in magic that you can even dispel the curses of this weapon…" mother said.

"Okay, I got it," I replied.

"It's a dangerous tool. We're giving it to you because we trust you. After the hardships you went through, we believe that you can handle it… well, if things go badly, we can always help but… if you don't show us that you can handle this blade correctly, we'll take it away from you," father said soon after.

"Until you grow into an adult!" added mother.

"Ugh… alright, I won't be reckless with it. I promise. Don't worry," I assured them.

My parents were quite concerned about my safety. I get it. This thing was very dangerous. After all, it was made out of a fragment of the magic crystal of the Demon King's subordinate, Beelzebub, after all.

That bastard was a dangerous foe. His power was quite admirable as well. If I lowered my guard around this thing, it might end up going badly for me…

Like, for example, its weight was very heavy, so I could end up losing balance and damage my own skin, getting cursed in the process…

Hmm… I have to take extra care while wielding it.

But I do wonder though… what sort of powers can I get out of it? And what's the curse like?

"What's the curse?" I asked.

"I have not analyzed it well enough yet, but it seems to weaken the body and suppress the regeneration of wounds… Beelzebub's essence is on it. With him being a demon that was able to control an aura of decay… it might end up corroding wounds and make them rot," father said in response.

My eyes shone brightly at that.

It was very deadly!

Just what I wanted!

A weapon deserving of my assassin-like teachings from my previous life!

Though, because of that, it's also very deadly. I cannot use it carelessly and end up doing something bad…

"And that's why it's very important and special! Don't go around swinging things with it too much. At most, use it to practice against monsters and well, dummies, I guess… your father as well, he's a monster, so its fine," mother warned me.

"W-Who are you calling a monster?!" Naturally, father did not take her words that well.

"Well, daddy is a monster when it comes to strength… he always lowers his strength when he fights me but he's really formidable!" I said in response.

"Indeed, he's crazy strong. Never lower your guard around this guy," added Shade.

"You too, Shade?!" Father could not believe it.

I think my father was having a mental breakdown over absolutely nothing. For some reason, he disliked being called "so strong he's like a monster" … well, maybe my father was more emotionally sensitive than I had originally thought.

"Daddy, you're a very gentle man. We're just joking. You're very lovely," I told him.

"Ahh… Sylphy…" In response, my father hugged me tightly and kissed my cheek.

Mission accomplished. Father has been cheered up. He really can't fight against the charm of his daughter, it seems.

"Anyways, now that you're done checking the sword. We got our own gifts too," Shade told me.

"Yeah, here dear. Happy birthday," said Nepheline.

"I helped make it!" added Aquarina.

"Oh?"

With their words, I opened the box. What I found inside was a beautiful set of accessories.

There were new earrings, which were lost in the fight against Hell, alongside a necklace, and a ring. They were all made of bright red jewels. From the looks of it, it seemed that they emanated the power of fire from within.

"We hunted down some fire-type monsters and refined the materials with your pop's help," Nepheline explained.

"Wow, really?" I asked.

"Yeah! This time we made it together, without asking the witch. She's was too busy with the sword…" father said.

"Your father has proven to be a good crafter. In my many years, I also learned how to craft magic accessories, so my help was crucial," added mother in a somewhat prideful tone.

"I see… amazing, thanks a lot, everyone…" I could only say those words.

Aquarina smiled warmly back at me, and so did everyone else.

I quickly wore the accessories, they all looked very pretty.

"You look so cute, Sylphy…" murmured Aquarina while blushing a bit.

"Really?" I asked.

"Y-Yeah… you're the most beautiful!" she said.

"D-Don't say that… you're also cute," I replied while petting her head.

"I also got you something of my own. I wanted to make you an accessory to boost your Light and Nature Magic since you seem to be developing them quite nicely. I saw you use that "Flashing Blade Art" and it was very strong. You used Light Magic to the max there, right? So, this will help you. I call it Elven Ring of Nature's Light," mother said.

After that, she gifted me a ring which had a jewel… or two combined together, which shone with bright gold and green light. The double-colored jewel was very pretty, so I wore the ring right away…
