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

452 An Unexpected New Ally!

—–

“Nnnggh…! D-Divine Flames?!” Agni was shocked as his face suddenly felt pain for the first time since this battle started just a minute ago. The Divine Flames burn through his scales and even reached his skin, half his face looked charred black as a result, and he was bleeding as well.

“Bastard…! You dare use such powers against me?!” Agni roared furiously. “Divine Flames or not… I won’t die so easily!”

“Me neither! With the help of my new friends and Sylph… I won’t fall back either! I’ll beat you until you realize I am your brother!”

“Come!”

The two dragons quickly clashed, flying over the skies, and beginning to fight. Explosions of flames erupted one after the other, as their intensity broke through the barrier of sound, generating shockwaves that shook the entire ground. Constant across he sky resembled bright stars, one after the other, endlessly.

Ignatius began unleashing countless fists attacks and his tail attacks, but his brother’s entire body grew larger and harder, suddenly beginning to tank his hits more easily as a result!

“Draconic Arts: Orichalcum Scales!”

Ignatius hits began to easily be blocked as Agni’s body became as hard as the legendary divine metal, Orichalcum!

.....

CLASH! CLASH! CLASH! CLASH! CLASH!

“Even divine flames can’t go through this Art!” Laughed Agni.

“I was never able to master that myself… But at least… I can Roll!” Ignatius roared, suddenly beginning to roll like an armadillo and clashing against Agni with all his might, pushing him off balance and then down into the ground!

“Unnggh?! S-Stop you bastard!” Agni tried to stop Ignatius, but he didn’t stopped.

“I won’t give up now! I can’t!” Ignatius roared. “Big brother Agni, recognize my strength!”

“Ah…! I-Ignatius?!”

For a moment, Agni suddenly seemed to recognize his brother!

CLAAAAAASSSSSHHH!

Right before both fell from the sky, reaching the ground below and leaving an enormous crater behind. The intensity of the explosion resulted from both falling was immense, it felt as if a volcano itself erupted. The flames were so intense they melted the rock paving the floor and lava began to erupt everywhere, several surrounding monsters were quickly caught in the shockwave, being decimated in the process…

“Incredible…” My mother said, left with almost no words. “To think you’ve been able to master the ability to merge Spirits powers together, that’s not something someone could learn by themselves! Even more, you’re able to create Divine Flames by merging Life, Light, and Fire together?!” My mother asked in surprise.

“T-That’s not something I came out with, it just happened…!” I said.

“I… Well, I guess you’re getting more and more out of hand, Sylph!” Sighed my mother. “But look, it seems that your plan really worked, and just in time.”

Agni was sitting over the floor, gasping for air, I could easily tell several of his bones broke. And above him, Ignatius ended going back to his original form, the form of a tiny dragon. Agni slowly tried to stand up, as his magic slowly began to repair his wounds coupled with his natural self-regeneration.

“Nngh… Ignatius… How? How did you become such a small thing?” Agni asked.

“Brother! You… recognized my strength?” Asked Ignatius.

“Hmph… Of course! I simply can’t forget that stubborn way you always talk, that’s not something anybody can easily mimic… You’re my little brother…” Agni said.

“I… I was indeed killed by the heroes.” Ignatius said.

“What?! But how are you here then?!” Agni asked.

“It’s thanks to Sylph, that girl who is the daughter of the heroes that defeated me. She took my soul after I died, took care of me, and slowly taught me many things. Ultimately, out of my own will, I evolved my soul into a Fire Spirit. That girl has… incredible powers not even I can even explain.” Sighed Ignatius.

“…Elves are indeed the closest to spirits, the power to Create Spirits out of Souls is not something totally rare, but still, it is incredible it happened… But why are you not resentful against the heroes then?” Asked Agni.

“I am! I really am but… I also recognize my own failure, my own reckless, which was mostly the reason why I died. These people are also Sylph’s parents, which she loves very much. I cannot simply… let you kill them.” Said Ignatius.

“…”

Agni remained in silence, looking at the small Ignatius and then sighing.

“Sigh… I only joined these bastards of the Abyssal Eyes because they offered me the chance to have my revenge, but if it means I’ll have to make my brother upset, then I suppose I cannot go with my original plan.” Agni sighed. “That doesn’t mean I’ll stop hating them!”

“B-Brother Agni!” Ignatius felt filled with emotions. “Then can you help us?! What exactly is going on now?!”

Agni quickly stood up, flying towards us while holding Ignatius little body over his enormous palm.

“The Abyssal Eyes used the power of the God of Dungeons to create an artificial Miasma Domain, which imitates a Dungeon’s structure. This way, they can provoke Dungeon Breaks by feeding this Miasma Domain with high quantities of miasma and souls which are being harvested right this very moment, even from the very monsters you’re defeating.” Agni surprisingly switched sides, quickly explaining not only to Ignatius but to all of us in here what was happening.

“So they had reached such heights with their magic research?!” My mother asked. “But the Abyssal Eyes did not exist when we were heroes, this is… It’s something completely new that has recently appeared. Is the God of Dungeons helping them to such an extent?!”

“Probably. That God… I am not fond of him.” Said Agni. “Nor of you! I am only doing this to not make my brother upset, so don’t think we are all friends now or something!” Agni said furiously.

“Hahah, you’re just like Ignatius!” I laughed, even amidst such crisis.

“Hmmmm… So you’re the special girl, Sylph, is it?” Asked Agni, his enormous head slowly approached the fortress made of light, his two beautiful and enormous red eyes glared through my entire being, even my soul.

“Hoh… You’re indeed a particularly interesting girl.” He said. “And you have a pure heart, that’s rare… I suppose I wouldn’t mind having a temporary familiar contract with you, just for now!”

“Eh?!”

Did he said… temporary familiar contract?!
