Reincarnated With A Glitched System: Why Is My MP Not Running Out? Chapter 19 Helping In The Battle While Doing Absolutely Noth

-----

As the battle continued to unfold, the last fly was defeated, and Beelzebub was the only one left...

"Kukuku... I've been waiting for this mont! Now co forth, the souls of my servants!"

FLAAASH!

Now what the hell is he doing?

He suddenly waved his hands and his large staff as several magic circles erged. He then used his giant domain to push away my father and his companions montarily, giving him enough ti for whatever he was going to do.

"What is he doing?" Nepheline could not help but ask.

"Necromancy? Is he planning on reviving them? Let's kill him quickly!" Shade roared soon after.

"No, this isn't just necromancy... this presence... a fragnt of the Demon King?!" my father muttered in shock.

Seriously, what the hell is going on?!

"Kuhahahahah! Behold! This is a fragnt of my King's soul! Bestowed upon to take over his title in the future! By sacrificing the souls of my loyal subordinates, I can enhance my power by devouring them back from the dead! Now admire as I undergo evolution and beco a Pseudo-Demon King!" Beelzebub cackled.

FLAAAASH!

More power continued to flow from his body as the groaning souls of his subordinates flew towards him and began to fuse with his body.

His entire body exuded an enormous fla of purple and dark color. Soon, his body started to be reinforced and evolve, shapeshifting as it grew bigger and bigger...

The power continued to flow, as if they were streams of darkness that ca from his body, expanding all over the place...

And then...

He stood there in the sa pose. In actuality, he didn't grow any bigger than a ter.

"Kuahahaha! Any ti now! You'll see!"

"..."

"..."

"..."

But nothing much really happened?

"Eh?"

"Was he bluffing?" my father could not help but ask.

"Let's squash this fly into bits already," Nepheline suggested.

"I agree..." Shade nodded in agreent.

"W-Wait! I was about to beco a Pseudo-Demon King! I was sure of it! The souls... they lacked a large part of their energy... the ritual failed... h-how?! Did you obtain knowledge of my secret technique beforehand?!" Beelzebub could not help but ask in shock.

The energy of the souls was missing... how? Wait... is this because of... ?

By watching the fight, I gained EXP. This energy didn't co out of nowhere, so it ca from their souls then? And because the souls of his subordinates lost mass, he lost energy, and therefore, he gained less power? Is that the reason why? Damn.

Then this ans I helped at not letting the boss increase his power in the middle of the battle... I actually helped... involuntarily, though.

And even though he was that strong, he wasn't able to detect this? I guess the souls lost most of their energy which beca my "EXP", and then the System devoured them greedily. In short, there's no way to give it back to him.

Due to this, his transformation halted midway as he ended up as a half-baked, slightly strengthened giant fly.

Hehehe... you don't need to thank , father! It was nothing, really.

My father and his two friends looked at Beelzebub with disappointnt after that.

However, they quickly changed their expressions as they beca serious once more. The guy was still powerful even without transforming, and my father said he had a fragnt of the forr demon king inside him. Perhaps that made him even stronger.

"T-This shouldn't be- ngh?!"

SLAAAAASSSSH!

My father rushed straight towards Beelzebub, so fast that even my eyes had a hard ti following. The flas surrounding his body suddenly transford into enormous dragon-like wings, overcharging his entire body with even more power. He then flew like a blazing teor towards the fly and slashed it away with an explosive attack from his sword.

CLAAAASSH!

"Ngaaaggh...!"

Beelzebub cried in agony as his bug body was bathed in flas, a large wound erged over it, cracking his hard exoskeleton.

"RRAAA!"

Nepheline then appeared from behind, her strong rock hamr impacted his head with enormous strength, enough to make one of his eyes blow up into pieces. Because of this, his face ended up even more horrendously disfigured.

CLAAASH!

Thanks to that move, the fly was sent flying towards the barrier made by mother, impacting it as if it was an actual fly that hit a window by accident.

The creature splattered over it as he tried to fight back, but felt very weakened all of a sudden. Then again, the attacks from Heroes such as my father and his friends were nothing to scoff at. I could sense as if their very magical damage held so kind of effect that affected the wounds they inflicted, sothing similar to a curse, but even deeper.

"Y-You bastards!!!"

Beelzebub barely managed to cry out as his aura began to expand, countless clouds of little flies began to erge from it, swarming my father and his allies as they began to destroy them, mostly through my father's fire.

Shade, however, had suddenly disappeared.

Where was he?

Ah!

FLASH!

He erged right behind Beelzebub using so kind of amazing stealth ability that completely erased his presence.

Using this, he reached Beelzebub by surprise and used his bare fists to pierce his back, destroying his exoskeleton from behind before grasping sothing!

"GRAAAHH...!"

CLASH!

What he took out was a large black jewel, the sa one the other flies dropped.

"A Demon General Magic Crystal sells for a lot of money," he said ruthlessly as the horrendous fly vomited a mouthful of green and oozy blood, falling and dying right there and then.

"Demon King..." he muttered as his last words.

"It's dead, then," my father said as he looked over the corpse.

"No. Look." Nepheline shook her head as she pointed at the corpse, a phantasmal aura slowly erging from it.

"So, there really was a piece of his soul there... I was sure he was purified through Faylen's magic... did the Demon King utilized so thod to save parts of his soul?" my father could not help but mutter.

"I don't know, but let's quickly destroy it," Shade said in response.

"Faylen, can you help us?" Father asked.

"Leave it to ..."

Mother's familiar then hovered over the phantasmal presence erging from the corpse of Beelzebub. Soon, a flashing light erged from its eye as the phantasmal presence was purified...

As that happened, I felt a ray of energy hit once more... ugh.

For so reason, this EXP this ti around felt a bit strange.
