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

Chapter 617 A Monster Infested Area

?

-----

And the monsters we found were… Fishes with the legs and hands of humans, lightly covered by blue scales! Yeah they were not even humanoid, they were just giant fishes with legs and arms, they looked utterly ridiculous!

We couldn't quite contain our laughter, which seemed to only make the more angered. These guys were the Fishmen of this place, a dominant group of monsters, they can even craft bone weapons, but aren't really intelligent and are… well, incredibly savage like right now.

"GRUOOHHHH!"

It was a group of around ten of them. A quick glance told me they were all Tier 3 Monsters despite their appearances. Well they were around two meters tall each, so they were greatly taller than us, but not really a threat.

"You guys have come in the perfect time! I was really thinking about getting myself some monsters with your water attributes. Your Magic Crystals will come in handy." I said, quickly taking out my sword and saving my pickaxe inside the Dimensional Bag.

"GRUOOHH!"

The Fishmen suddenly pointed their spears and tridents at us, as magic circles emerged, vortexes of water and water bullets began to rain down over us rapidly. They were quite versed at magic to make up for their smaller bodies!

SPLAAASH!

The water vortexes were quite powerful, but Aquamarine intercepted them with her powerful Magic and then manipulated most of the water back against them, splashing over the Fishmen and scattering them over the ground!

BOOOOMMM!!!

"GRYYEEEH…!"

"GLUOOP!"

"GRUAAH…!"

"Now!" I roared, as I jumped forward with everyone else, quickly pointing my sword at the nearest Fishmen. "We need their materials in a good state so don't burn them or cut them too much! Swordsmanship Technique: [Skull Smasher]!"

I unleashed a strong yet simple Swordsmanship Technique, Skull Smasher. This technique enhanced the weight and power of the sword for a few seconds by imbuing Mana into it, making it possible to crush very hard things, such as the skull of an enemy.

CLAAASH!

The powerful blow reached the Fishman's neck, slicing through it and killing the monster on an instant. However, another Fishman rushed from behind me, as Celica quickly attacked it.

"Mister Teddy, smash it!"

Darkness surged from her hands in the form of threads, which connected to her Teddy Bear. Her plushie suddenly transformed, growing larger and more ferocious looking, with sharp claws and an angered look, while she controlled it using her Shadow Threads.

"KUMAAAAA!"

The enormous Mister Teddy smashed the Fishmen with his large claws, slashing it away and throwing it into the ground.

BAAAAM!

This was Celica's amazing magic, I remember my parents said it was a unique talent of her Demon Tribe, they have the ability to control things using threads, or enchant them into powerful golems.

"Sylphy are you okay?" Celica wondered.

"Eh? Yeah, I was about to attack that one too… I guess you anticipated to it, well done." I praised Celica.

"It is mostly Mister Teddy's work!" Celica said, as her Teddy Golem began smashing the Fishmen until it stopped moving.

"GROUP!"

However, another two rushed from our surroundings, as I slashed away one with my sword and the [Swift Slash] Swordsmanship Technique, slicing it into two clean halves. The other was attacked by Aquarina, as she stabbed its gills until it died.

"Phew, that's it I think… Uegh now I stink like fish though." Aquarina laughed a bit.

I looked around and found Zack, Mist, and Celeste having taken down the other Fishmen with ease. Meanwhile, Nephi was taking care of Zephy. My little brother didn't had any time to fight though, everything happened so fast he never found a time to intervene and fight, sadly.

Ding!

[You and Your Party Defeated [Fishmen Magicians (Tier 3: Rank 3)] x10!]

[You gained 100000 EXP]

[Your Familiars have received a large quantity of EXP]

"I guess that's that for now." I said. "Let's see… Oh! Scales and Magic Crystals. These guys were Magician Fishmen! I didn't knew such a race existed."

"Interesting, probably the reason why their magic was so strong." Said Celeste.

I quickly stored all the Fishmen inside of my Dimensional Storage, as I'll be butchering their bodies later. For now, I concentrated into mining the rest of the Fire Spirit Stones.

"Muhh… I couldn't fight…" Sighed Zephy.

"Was it too fast?" I wondered.

"Muh…" He nodded.

"Well, real fights often happen this quickly, you have to sharpen your reflexes, perhaps. Maybe sparring some more with your big sis might help you with your reflexes." I said with a smile.

"Ooh! Maybe!" Zephy seemed convinced enough. "But I want to slay monsters too…"

"Fine we can find something smaller for you, we didn't started fighting Tier 3 Monsters either." I said while smacking the Fire Spirit Stone Crystal, grabbing the last lumps of it.

CLANK!

Crash!

A large lump came out as well, as I quickly stored it. I wasn't just extracting for this job, but for any future usage I had for them as well.

"And ready, let's go now!"

We walked across the Rocky Valley's road. There was a spiraling road that led directly to the lake where the island that contained the dungeon was located at. In the way, we finally found more blue crystals, and I quickly extracted high quality Water Spirit Stones from them.

However, as this place was swarming with monsters everywhere, it wasn't rare that we would find yet another pack of monsters. A group of twenty Fishmen showed up, alongside ten Crystal Alligators. The Fishmen this time weren't just magicians, there were some ridiculously burly guys holding big weapons made of fish bone.

And lastly, the Crystal Alligators were enormous, five-meter big Tier 3 Rank 7 Monsters in the shape of alligators covered on crystals. Which were not as high quality but were quite valuable anyways.

"GRAAAAH!"

The Fishmen seemed to have used magic to tame the alligators, mounting them and sending them against us rapidly. This was the perfect time to help Zephy fight!

…Though he was trembling behind me, he was quite scared.
