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

-----

"ROOOOOARRR!"

TRUUM…!

TRUUM…!

Two enormous claws grasped the paved floor, as a beast immediately came out of the crack in space. It was not something we had ever seen before. It resembled a gigantic lizard, of at least twenty meters of height. Its face resembled that of a dragon, and it was completely covered in black horns. Two sharp red eyes glowed eerily within its face, as a third, purple-colored one emanated an even stronger aura.

FLASH!

The three eyes flashed with bright light, suddenly covering the entire place with… stone?!

"Petrification?! A damn Basilisk from all things?!" My father muttered in surprise, as his entire body suddenly began to be covered in stone.

"FATHER!!!"

I cried to my father, trying to help him in any way I could, but my father needed no help. In an instant, his entire body unleashed an explosion of flames that shaped themselves into a glorious phoenix.

"Phoenix Armor!"

FLUOOOSH!

The stone covering his body quickly broke out before it could actually turn him into stone. But the people around us was less fortunate, as dozens of statues laid over the floor, motionless and devoid of any life.

"It suddenly turned dozens into statues!" Zack cried, his face clearly showing despair.

"No… No! S-So many people…!" Aquarina began to panic.

"C-Calm down you two! My father… my father will do it!" I cried. "You two, use the Beast Spirit Coating as Ninhursag taught us!"

I quickly commanded my friends, touching their shoulders as I infused my Mana into their bodies, a sudden burst of magical auras emerged from their bodies in an instant, as they immediately started to cover themselves with their Beast Spirit Auras. Aquarina was that of a roaring sea dragon, and Zack of a furious horned bear. Meanwhile, my Beast Spirit Aura was similar to a red dragon, the same as Ignatius.

"Shit just got real!" Ignatius laughed, in the middle of the crisis, the dragon found this amusing.

My father unleashed an aura of flames that clashed against the dark aura of the enormous Basilisk. The beast shouldn't be that strong if it came from that Dungeon, but there was something completely abnormal about it! It felt way stronger… like way beyond Tier 5 or 6… or even above 7?!

"GRRRR…!"

"GROAR!"

Suddenly, three more Basilisks emerged from the crack, glancing around, and turning everything into stone. The panicking merchants were able to run away in time, but even flying birds were not spared, falling over the floor into statues, and shattering into pieces. Some people ended the same, dying on the spot.

The Basilisks quickly attempted to rush completely outside of the gate, as I noticed even more eyes glaring down at us from within the dimension in there. Just how many of these damned monsters were there?!

"Not a single step, you bastards!" My father roared heroically; his blazing sword swung crazily as enormous storms of flames clashed against the three Basilisk that managed to get out of the gates.

BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!

The blazing slashing explosions of pure flames quickly consumed the three Basilisks into flames that began to burn through their scales. Father had put a lot of intensity, so they were literally being grilled alive. The mighty monsters capable of instantly killing people through Petrification were being destroyed in seconds!

"GROOARRR!"

A struggling Basilisk opened its mouth, unleashing a beam of darkness against my father!

CLAAASH!

"Ungh…?! Miasma again- no, Chaos! This is the Chaos Cocoon!" My father muttered. "This explains why you guys are so strong… You're infected with the Chaos Element!"

My father ignored the beam, suddenly swinging his sword again and directing it towards the sky, an enormous explosion of black and purple energy was unleashed, covering the sky with smoke.

BOOOM!

"I won't let you pass! Die!" My father roared. His sword slashed the three Basilisks struggling to keep alive before his flames into thin pieces, which all fell down over the floor, rolling one after the other.

SLASH! SLASH! SLASH!

The agonizing cries of the monsters resonated everywhere, as my father continued to unleash his fiery flames. We were simply protecting ourselves from the "miasma" that my father said, which was capable of infecting living beings and even bring their deaths.

However, as we desperately thought about what to do, I suddenly noticed some very shady people! They were hiding behind the abandoned stalls of the merchants, wearing black robes and shiny jewelry in their hands. Magic circles were emerging beneath their foot, connecting through runes across the floor.

"By the lord of Dungeons, all of you sinful souls shall perish!"

"Devoid of life and death, fall into the eternal abyss!"

"All of you will pay for what you've done to us!"

"Die! Die! Die!"

A strange incantation happened, as I saw dozens of souls emerging from the statues lying around from all these newbie adventurers that were caught in the catastrophe, the mass of souls began to emerge in the middle of the street, suddenly summoning something!

"Fuck, this is bad news!" Ignatius said. "Sylphy, your father is busy, you gotta stop this before shit gets out of control!"

"You don't have to tell me twice!"

Without hesitating I ran forward and unsheathed my blade, covered in the Beast Aura that protected me from the Miasma slightly, I didn't doubted for a second I had to stop this from happening. Whatever it was, and whoever those people were, this was clearly not good. They were literally using the souls of people that was killed there!

"Wait, Sylphy! Where are you going?!" Aquarina cried, trying to chase me down.

"Sylphy! Stop!" Zack cried.

"You two take down those people in robes! Don't let them conjure whatever magic they're using!" I commanded the two, as they finally noticed the people hiding behind the stalls at plain sigh.

Both gritted their teeth, but it wasn't as if they had the time to overthink things. I trusted their strength and capability of at least stopping some mages from conjuring something shady.

"Alright!" Zack roared, rushing towards the nearby black robbed man.

"L-Leave it to me then!" Aquarina ran to the opposite direction.

They're both already reliable, I couldn't expect less from my friends.

CLASH!

However, before I could step closer to the mass of condensed souls, a sharp spear hit the floor right in front of me.

"Not a single step, little girl."
