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

225 The Army Gets Closer

—–

Blue Skinned demon, the name of such a race was quite uncommon, and their origins were also a mystery, they only knew that this race of demons were capable of controlling Green Skins, a race of demon-like monsters. It was speculated that they were a superior Green Skin, some sort of King amongst Kings, an Emperor, who evolved into an actual demon and turned his skin color from green to blue, becoming something akin to a god for the Green Skins, a figure that has been actually venerated through the Green Skin’s lore for generations.

All tribes of Green Skins across the entirety of the Demon Continent knew of this “god” the Blue Skinned Demon, the one that has ascended and whose skin was no longer green, but blue, a color that for the green skins represented a god, as it was the color of the sky itself. Blue Skinned Demons were rare, and there were only very few known in history, and all of them got ultimately slain by the heroes of their generations, but somehow, they always left children that would take their position in the future and lead the Green Skins into battle once more...

The last time the heroes fought such a being, it was in this very jungle, when the Blue Skinned Demon Lord escaped from war with a few thousands Green Skins and settled down into this forest, attempting to conquer it, trying to destroy all the villages of the people in here. This is where Ninhursag’s family met their doom, and also where this blue skinned demon died by the hands of the previous heroes that were the mentors of Allan and the rest, with the help of Faylen, who was both a mentor and a new hero... Since then, Ninhursag has been growing with Nepheline and accompanied the heroes through some adventurers, but never grew strong enough to be a true heroine. She ended staying in the jungle, until the time when Nepheline and Shade came back from their crusade to the demon continent where many of the heroes, she met that made up their party had died.

The two settled down in the amazon village, while Ninhursag sometimes came to give them a visit. However, that peace only lasted for too long before a new invasion of green skins of a mysterious origin emerged in the jungle, led by the son of tis previous blue skinned demon, he tried to do what his father could not, but ended being slain by the heroes once more. But due to being unprepared, many amazon warriors died that day, including Zack’s parents...

At the end, now there was a third blue skinned demon... It felt as if the entire family wasn’t going to rest until they were to kill them for some reason, a grudge that has been transferred to the next generations, this was the grudge of the blue demons.

Allan, Shade, Nepheline, and Ninhursag quickly heard Faylen’s words as they grew alarmed of what was occurring, if the blue demon was really here, then the green skins would become incredibly vicious but also coordinated, and perhaps even stronger.

“So it wasn’t just a Goblin King as we thought? There is a Blue Demon here! Damn it, is this like the third already?!” Asked Allan. “What is wrong with these guys and this jungle?”

Allan complained first, he was tired of fighting them, this was already the third of them, it already felt like a very bad joke to him, but the rest were more serious about the situation.

.....

“This is not good, he’ll be able to easily enhance the green skins and command them as if they were his army, we won’t be able to easily deal with them if he’s in the back hiding from our presence either...” Said Shade.

“One of us will have to go into the back of the army of green skins, and reach the blue demon then? So it’s beheading the king again? We did it before, we can do it now too.” Said Nepheline.

“But this time without anyone else dying.” Said Shade.

“I’ll go.” Said Ninhursag.

The heroes looked at her with surprise.

“No you don’t! Ninhursag, you’re fairly weaker than us, you’re going to get killed if you dive into the army of Green Skins, especially with the boost they’re receiving!” Said Faylen from afar.

“I have recovered a lot of my health thanks to you, Faylen...” Said Ninhursag. “And I can also shapeshift into a Goblin and a Goblin Champion as well, I could infilter their army and sneak towards the leader and then transform into a monster and kill him. Blue Demons are not strong by themselves, right? Their enslaving powers is what’s dangerous about them.”

The heroes fell silent for a bit, her plan did had some reason behind, and it actually sounded quite good, if she could easily sneak behind the ranks of the green skins then... it could be possible to behead the king without actually having to engage with the green skins. Of course, the green skins would still be monsters even if the blue demon dies, but they won’t be fearless anymore, after sensing their Auras, they would easily all run away for their lives instead of being forced to fight and die miserably.

“That sounds like a good plan.” Said Allan.

“Allan!” Said Faylen angrily. “She’s... just recovering, you can’t give her such a responability!”

“Don’t you realize it, Faylen? She wants this, this is her revenge... Let her have his head.” Said Allan.

“...T-This is not about revenge; this is about survival! You can’t... Sigh...” Faylen sighed at the end, letting them do as they pleased.

“Thank you.” Said Ninhursag.

“I suppose you’re going then.” Sighed Shade.

“We’ll support you and watch over you with our spirits, you won’t be alone on this fight, not anymore.” Said Nepheline, patting her friend’s shoulders.

“Nepheline... everyone... Thank you for giving me this opportunity.” Said Ninhursag.

As the heroes spoke, the army of Green Skins finally emerged within Sylphy’s sight, and they were hundreds- no, thousands!

“T-They’re coming! They’re here! The Green Skins!” She said, alarmed about the fight that was approaching.
