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

Chapter 861 Arachne's Fury

Aquarina smiled, seeing the plan actually working! It was an absolutely insane, out of the box idea Sylph had thought about just because of the tools she had available with herself. She still remembered her girlfriend when she proposed it.

"We'll fill Glutton with enough sea water to fill that entire room. Once I break the gate open, we'll push all the water out at once, something Glutton can do by instantly summoning the items out of his body…" Sylph explained.

"T-That's amazing… It might not work if the water had to slowly fill the room, but all at once?! It would certainly actually work!" Zack said. "But wouldn't the water get out through the gate you opened?"

"Yeah, at most we'll have a couple of minutes, but in that time, Aquarina will be left with the heaviest task, to hold back Arachne while we rescue Lara. She's right across that door." Sylph explained.

"Aquarina…" Luck glanced at Aquarina with baby-like eyes.

"Geez, I was already up for anything." Sighed Aquarina. "Sure, leave it to me. But… I can't breathe underwater indefinitely either-"

"You actually can though!" Sylphy smiled. "Your Sea Dragon Transformation, it comes with gills around your neck. You've never realized? Your transformation is unique and different than mine, so you're better suited to fight underwater now more than ever. Meanwhile, we'll hide inside of your shadows using Celeste's Shadow Magic. And wait for the opportunity to strike once you temporarily subdue Arachne."

"T-That's… Can I even do this?" Aquarina began to doubt back then. "Can't Arachne still conjure powerful magic underwater, Sylphy?"

"Fufu, do you think your girlfriend would forget that?" Sylphy giggled, crossing her arms. "We'll mix the sea water you create with your magic with this other new component I can conjure… Anti-Magic. We'll make Anti-Magic Sea Water! And the best thing is that this Anti-Magic… I can manipulate it with your help underwater, so it wouldn't even affect us!"

"T-That's… insane!" Aquarina was shocked. "Alright, fine! Let's really do it!"

Aquarina smiled as she recalled what Sylph had said, her eyes glowing with draconic light as Arachne freed herself from her water restraints with brute force, swimming towards Sylph and Luck who had grabbed Lara and swam away!

"YOU WON'T TAKE HER AWAY FROM MEEEE!!! YOU VERMIN!"

Arachne moved her legs rapidly, swimming like some species of spiders do underwater, moving quickly. She conjured her magic again, but it was quickly disrupted as Sylph pointed her hand at her, releasing purple lightning that wrapped around her hands.

"[Mana Disruption]!"

ZAAAAP!

"Ugh?! My magic conductivity… It was halted?!" Arachne was shocked, only to realize that several new chains made of water and anti-magic emerged, wrapping around her body, and pushing her down!

BAAAAMMM…!

"AARGGHHH…!"

"You're not moving from there, bitch!" Aquarina roared. "(Sylphy has to get out of the water for Lara to enter her Dungeon after all! We have to escape while I can subdue Arachne…)"

Sylph couldn't simply teleport things inside her Dungeon, she had to first open a Dungeon Gate, something she can only do outside. And if she did it underwater, tons of water would fill her dungeon and it would not even let her put Lara inside either.

"Almost there!" Luck said, quickly enhancing his swimming speed and helping Sylph swim through the water. 

Aquarina was putting all her energy into controlling the water so Arachne couldn't free herself. Although it seemed like she was an absolute goddess, it was far from that. To Aquarina, it felt like going against a waterfall.

Arachne had an incredible strength and magic power, the Anti-Magic, Mana Disruption, and her own oceanic magic were all pushing her back, but she would simply and endlessly keep moving forward.

At most, they could only do this temporarily, and Aquarina was already spending tremendous quantities of Mana, her own reverses having long ago depleted. If it wasn't for Sylphy's unlimited reverses of Mana which she shared with her, this would be absolutely impossible to accomplish!

"HOW… HOW DARE YOU…! HOW DARE YOUUUU! GRAAAAGGGHHH…!"

Arachne roared with utmost fury, her entire body glowing bright red as her many tattoos started overflowing with Mana and Runes! Her Beast Aura surged from within her at the same time, resembling a titanic black spider with a skull pattern on its huge abdomen.

"[Soul Weapon Materialization]: [Void Piercing Spear: Ginnungagap]!"

"A Soul Weapon?!" Aquarina, Sylph, and Luck panicked the moment Arachne materialized her soul weapon underwater with no problems at all!

[The [Arachspider Queen: Arachne (Tier 10: Rank 2)] has summoned her [Soul Weapon]: [Void Piercing Spear: Ginnungagap]!]

[By the Soul Weapon's [Aura of the Void], all of Arachne's surroundings became a vacuum, absorbing anything and bringing them towards her!]

TRUUUMMM…!

"COME AND DIE!"

Suddenly the oceanic water started spiraling around Arachne as Sylphy and Luck were pushed towards her alongside Aquarina! Arachne had simply created a center of gravity around her that allowed her to bring any escaping prey towards her! 

"She created her own center of gravity?!" Asked Alice in shock. "This is bad! You have to escape as soon as possible! A strike from a Tier 10 being will surely kill you, Sylphy! Your soul will be destroyed!"

"I know that really well!" Sylph sighed, as she smiled, glancing at Arachne, as she let herself be dragged towards her while giving Lara to Luck.

"SYLPHY?!" Luck and Aquarina panicked as they saw Aquarina willingly swim towards Arachne!

"Hahaha! You bold brat! You'll die first!" Laughed Arachne, as if she couldn't drown at all even after speaking underwater, she quickly grabbed her black spear and pointed it towards Sylph. "DIE! [Void Pierce]!!!"

CLAAASH!!!

The strike was incredibly loud, making the entire dungeon tremble. However, what Arachne ended hitting instead of Sylph's soft flesh was her shield?!

Sapphire gained countless cracks, but they quickly recovered as Sylph used another Enhancement Stone on her, the power absorbed by the shield erupted with a tremendous burst of magical power.

"Can you take that back, please?!" Sylph smiled almost maniacally, as her shield unleashed a tremendous dark dragon made of black, accursed water, engulfing Arachne with the total power of her own strike plus even more!

BAAAAMMM…!
