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

Chapter 160 Pyuku's Gluttony

-----

We were gasping for air for a bit, after fighting these Goblins, we indeed felt a bit... exhausted. Not physically, but mentally... and well, not me exactly, but the two kids, even though they were not humans or other demi-human races, goblins were closer to monsters, they were still humanoid and even intelligent, taking their lives indeed felt more like killing a person than a monster.

"Ungh... W-We did it... Hahh... T-This is... I am covered in blood..." sighed Aquarina.

"Agh... That was... simpler than I imagined. I never thought I would be able to slice in half an entire goblin..." said Zack.

"Calm down now, everything is okay, we did it... They wanted to kill us, so it is justified to defend ourselves." I said.

"Y-Yeah... I know but still... Agh, I want to take this blood out of me..." sighed Aquarina.

"It's all sticky and smells very strongly." Sighed Zack.

"I can tell, it is giving me a bit of nausea." I said.

We looked around and quickly decided to move back, but I noticed that Pyuku had begun moving on its own, and reached the corpses of the Goblins.

"Pyuuu!"

It spread its slimy blue body over the corpses which were close to one another, and quickly began to consume them, dissolving them through its expanded stomach, and absorbing all their nutrients.

"Wait, hold on Pyuku! You can't eat those things, what if you get indigestion?!" asked Aquarina.

"I am sure it won't, look how it's completely dissolving them... I doubt Pyuku will ever have stomach problems..." I said.

"Is it hungry or something? Agh, the magic crystals inside them could be valuable, but I don't really care at this point, let's move back, the goblin village near could notice us at any moment." Said Zack.

"Yeah... Huh?" I said, as I suddenly noticed something strange with Pyuku.

Its body began to glow for a bit momentarily, as I saw how it devoured the magic crystals inside the goblins as well as their entire bodies within her in mere second.

This glow of energy seemed to strengthen it, as its magic crystal glowed with a dim blue light for just a single second and then it dissipated.

It quickly rushed to eat the other goblins in the floor at time record before our eyes, leaving us shocked.

"Pyuku was this hungry?! Damn it, we should had offered it more food or something..." said Aquarina.

"Okay Pyuku enough! Come!" I said.

"Pyuuu!"

Pyuku quickly jumped over my shoulder as we began to run towards the direction where the other archer goblins were, which was the same path we came from, it seems they might had already noticed us beforehand, and there was no saying that there might be more goblins lurking around!

"Pyuuuu!"

Pyuku suddenly expanded her slimy tentacles and caught the goblins burned in the floor, bringing them to her slimy body and devouring them while sitting on my shoulder...

"Oi! You're way too gluttonous! What's wrong with you? You're eating way too much for your size, I swear!" I said.

"Munch... Pyuuu..."

But Pyuku didn't listened to me as it showed us a face filled with satisfaction, as if it enjoyed every meal it had. A sudden glow covered its body and magic crystal once more for a few seconds before dissipating, now everyone noticed this as we ran through the jungle.

"W-What was that? Did Pyuku just glowed brightly for some reason?" asked Aquarina.

"It did it right after eating... How odd, does it grow stronger by eating things?" asked Zack.

"Ah...! Maybe? But I don't really know how slimes grow stronger anyways, wild monsters usually grow stronger over time by living and absorbing mana from the environment, according to my mother, but indeed, eating stronger prey does increase their power faster... But this is way too fast, and it felt strange too..." I said.

"Pyu?" asked Pyuku confused about what we were speaking.

"Ah, well, never mind for now, Pyuku, just ignore us..." I sighed.

I petted Pyuku, it had saved us by helping us evade the arrows, it seems that it has sharper senses than we thought originally.

"W-We have to go back to the village and tell our parents what happened, we have to hurry..." said Aquarina.

"Yeah! If we tell your parents, they'll come here to clean them up quickly!" said Zack.

"I-I guess they won't forgive the goblins after they attempted to kill us." I said.

Well, they might or might not had seen things already through the spirits lurking around behind us, these could had saved us from the arrows too, but they only act in the very last minute, so they let Pyuku be the hero.

"Of course they shouldn't! Those damn goblins should all get killed! They're not people but barbarians, not even Furoh tried to kill us..." said Zack.

"Ah, you're recognizing Furoh?" I asked.

"I-I am not...!" said Zack.

"Sylphy, let's take a bath after this, I am stinking with goblin blood-" said Aquarina, as I suddenly saw a few seconds in the future.

A large javelin flew towards her and was very close to pierce her chest!

"Shit! Aquarina! Blazing Wall!" I cried, as I desperately conjured a shield made of flames and quickly stopped the javelin flying towards us at fast speed.

CLAAASH!

The javelin clashed over the wall made of flames, as it began to burn in the floor. The barrier of flames was actually cracked, and quickly dissipated due to the force of the attack.

Is there someone here good at using the javelin or something?! I quickly used my eyes, spreading my sight across the entire place as we suddenly stopped moving and stood there in silence.

I noticed several life signs approaching all around right after that! And they were goblins, a crap ton of them!

Have they been trying to lurk behind our backs this entire time?

Amongst the bushes, a larger than usual goblin emerged...

It had the size of at least three meters, and it possessed a strong aura.
