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

Ding!

[You earned 400 EXP]

[Ignatius] earned 560 EXP]

He had one-shotted that Walking Fish with his own attack! It seems that leveling two times really did increase his offensive abilities. However, I quickly noticed he lost a chunk of his HP and his eggshell was cracked. The idiot used too much force and ended hurting himself.

"Be more careful!" I said, quickly using Naturia's help to conjure [Healing Light], a non-nature-attribute version of [Verdant Healing Light], which slowly regenerated the damage that this dumb egg took.

Ding!

[Ignatius] has learned the [Roll: Lv1] Skill!]

Eh? He learned a Skill like nothing?!

"Roll, huh? I shall use it to defeat my foes! Bring it on, fishes!" He laughed.

-----

[Roll: Lv1]

Skill Proficiency: 25/1000

A Skill learned by smaller creatures that fight by rolling over the ground at fast speed. Usually by channeling their own Mana into their bodies, they can make themselves harder and speeder in exchange for having little control over where they'll land. This is why this Skill is often used to surprise foes or sprint away from danger. Enhances Damage Dealt and Speed when rolling by +20% with each Level.

Oh! I see, Roll is quite… Huh, a fitting power for a rolling uncooked omelet.

"RAAAH!"

While I was checking the Skill, Zack finished off the last free Walking Fish by mercilessly smacking its head with his axe. The fish's head rolled over the ground. Aren't these monsters a bit too weak out of water?

Ding!

[You earned 200 EXP]

[Ignatius] earned 280 EXP]

"Alright, let's finish off these other guys!" I roared.

"Sure!"

"Let's do it, hehehe…"

With my friends, we quickly finished off the other six Walking Fishes that were trapped in the vines of my monsters. They were very bad at moving on land, and also seemed to lack some sort of magic attack they can only do in the pond of water. This made them an easy picking for all of us.

Ding!

[You earned 1800 EXP]

[Ignatius] earned 2520 EXP]

[Ignatius] has reached Level 4!]

Amazing, he's leveling way too fast! What's this?! Already Level 4 out of 10?! Maybe is it because he's an Egg and he gets bonus EXP? Well, even if then… Ah, it doesn't matter. It is better if he levels up quickly, he has been an egg for way too long already.

"T-This is it! I think I am slowly getting there! I might hatch soon!" Ignatius celebrated, as we rested over a pile of dead fish. The odor was quite bad.

"Ugh, this smells!" Aquarina cried. "I am going to get all nasty now…"

"Did you forget how to use the Clean Spell?" Sighed Zack, casting [Clean] to quickly clean his body from the fish blood and entrails, the smell quickly disappeared. I did the same for Aquarina and myself, and my father decided to save the fishes while giving one to Pyuku.

"That was great, these Walking Fishes are tricky, they have the ability to control water when they're inside their ponds and can suck it up and shoot it at a rapid speed, being able to easily pierce through low quality armor. They were a pain when I was a kid, but then I discovered you have to do just what Zack did, force them out of the pond and then they'll become clumsy on land." Said my father. "Well done kids, let's take a break after the next Floor's challenge."

"Alright papa!" I said, excited about what we were going to fight next.

Meanwhile, I looked at Ignatius and saw that his Stats had grown by a small amount with each level. Less than 5 for most stats with each level except his HP and MP, which both increase by +5 in each level. It seems that even if he reaches Level 10, his stats might not be that strong. Comparing him with me is not recommended, due to my stats being glitched, and they should be way higher than they show to be.

As walked downstairs, my father began to talk about his anecdotes with Walking Fishes. It seems that going into a dungeon with us really made him remember those old times when he was sill growing stronger.

"Oh man, back then your mother was a grumpy teacher. Would you believe I used to dislike her a lot? She was always barking at us that we were doing everything wrong. And yeah, we did. Most of the time we almost got ourselves killed because we pushed forward without thinking it twice. I often led them all with my recklessness. I got so many of her lectures and reprimanding that one day I ended yelling back at her…" He sighed.

"Eh? You did?" I asked.

"Yep… You wouldn't want to see your mother TRULY angered." My father sighed. He seemed to not want to recall things completely due to the fear he felt from back then.

"Huh… Sylphy's mom is a bit scary…" Aquarina said.

"Your mom in comparison is way gentler I guess." Zack sighed.

"Yeah, mama is nice. I don't remember that many times she reprimanded me or got seriously angry. She's always smiling and laughing, always cheering us up." Aquarina said, she really loved her big and muscular mother.

"Nepheline has always been like that! When she was younger she was exactly like that and… even now, she's just like that. I guess from all of us, she had always kept her personality the same. She's actually way more grounded now than before, but I suppose she took on herself the role of the one that would always laugh and cheer everyone else." Said my father. "Nepheline is a good friend that helped us get through a lot of things with her smile…"

"Huh~ I see." I said with a smile. Seeing my father smile and recall that past without feeling depressed made me slightly happy myself.

As we chatted, we reached Floor 3 in an instant. In there, we found yet another strange layout… A maze.
