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

399 The Three Primary Energies ????????????r????а????. Co????

—–

We spent the rest of the day yesterday practicing light magic with Alice while I was also conjuring Ember and Spiritual Blessing to gain Skill Proficiency from them, eventually, Ember reached Level 3, it was going to level up rather quickly I suppose.

Anyways, with the training of light magic for Alice, we had tried using Tier 1 Light Magic for now, as Tier 2 might go a bit unstable. Also, Alice was having a hard time manipulating this enormous quantity of energy she had within herself, which seemed to be merely the power that made her up as she was.

This morning, as I woke up from practicing some more with her within my Soul Scape, which was a safer area to practice these things, she suddenly spoke to me after she summoned herself in front of my bed.

“I think I’ve figured out more or less what that power is...” She sighed rather fearfully.

“Eh? What is it?” And why are you afraid?” I wondered.

“This power is not Mana, Sylphy... W-Well, with you I can get tons of Mana. But you know what’s the power that comes after Mana?” She wondered.

“Huh? there is one?” I wondered.

“You see... Erm, how do I explain this in simple terms? Well... Err, ah! Well, let’s go with this. You see, in all living beings and in creation itself, there are three primary energies that rule different things. Although there are other energies in between them, they’re often made by the combination of these three primary energies.” She said.

.....

“Primary Energies?” I wondered, tilting my head in confusion.

“Yes, these three Primary Energies are Mana, Aether, and Vitality, which is often referred in some cultures as “Ki” or even “Stamina”...” Said Alice. “Mana is the energy that rules Magic. Aether is the energy that rules Souls and the Supernatural. And Vitality, or Ki, is the energy that Rules Living Beings.”

“Ohhh...”

“You see, every living person has these three energies. Usually you have Mana within both your body and soul, while Vitality is only existent within your Body, and then Aether is the major composition of your Soul.” She said. “These three energies, refining them and making them grow, is the essence of growing stronger. You exercise your body to enhance your Vitality through Physique Tiers, you increase the power of your Magic by increasing the quality and power of your Mana, and you develop your soul and both Magic Affinity and Physical Strength can be enhanced by strengthening your Aether. Usually the soul grows stronger through special methods, but it also depends in the strength of your mind.” Alice explained.

“Ah... I see... But what does this has to do with what you have?”

“We are getting there... You see, the energy that Gods utilize- or at least the God that created me, the God of Transmigration used to make me is Divine Energy, a combination of these three Essences merged and refined together, it is incredibly rich, and it is a power that only beings catalogued as Gods can achieve. My entire composition is made of Divine Energy, all the Runes I have are made out of Divine Runes, which are like billions of normal runes combined together perfectly.” Said Alice. “So when I conjured a spell, what came out was due to the enormous power that I hold, which is the Divine Energy of my composition... It will be hard to hold it back, and if I overuse it, both of us will end up very tired, or might even be internally crippled from using magic for a long while. It is a power that a normal body or soul can’t handle, even you.”

“I see... I wonder if the infinite mana I have has something to do with this...” I wondered.

“Quite probably.” She said. “I did felt as if I had taken away a large piece of my creator’s Divine Power when our full synchronization was done. Since then, he completely cut off our connection as if he was completely discarding me. But now that I think about it, my entire existence is flawed to the point that I could had continued draining his energy away, which could had been a very dangerous thing for him.”

“Oh... I guess he did what he could...” I sighed.

At this point I really didn’t resent this God. He had given me a second chance at life, even if it was a mistake. And although he gave me a crippled System that ended affecting my growth in this world, this crippled system ended being a good friend like Alice, who also gave me strange powers nobody else has in here, which is a plus, a big one. I guess the good and the bad end up being balanced, and I don’t hate him or anything.

“So, the power you have is the power of the gods? Wow...” I gasped a bit.

“But it is too dangerous! Don’t even think about using it, your entire soul would simply turn into nothingness if you tried to utilize it! it is a power that a normal soul cannot fathom to utilize, even less your body, you would be completely vaporized!” She said.

“But I was still able to channel it within my spell, right? Maybe we could find a way to abuse this power, even if a little.” I wondered.

“Ugh, I knew you would begin having those thoughts, you’re really hopeless, Sylphy!” Alice began to reprimand me but I couldn’t help but think about the possibilities of using such power. Nonetheless, it was better to not annoy her nor force her to use a power that also hurts her.

“I get it, I won’t do anything...” I sighed. “But we still need you to practice more, this energy and the mana, you need to learn how to separate them so you don’t end up mixing divine energy into our spells, which might become too catastrophic to be controlled. Imagine if I used this in the middle of a city, we might had ended killing a lot of innocent people.”

“R-Right... I guess we need to practice.”

I never thought Alice was so overpowered though!
