Reincarnated As The Hero’s Daughter: Wait, Why Is My MP Not Running Out?

-----

"Fufufu, what a useless girl… I bet she has only survived so far because of her own parents." Arachne smiled, glancing at a crystal orb that reflected the dungeon. "I'll simply leave a hundred and some more bugs and be done with it. She'll try hard to survive, but with such a small body, she'll eventually die pitifully, unless she has infinite mana or something."

Arachne laughed, since the beginning that she had attributed all of what the children had accomplished to their parents, whenever her troops died or were defeated, she always thought it was the former heroes, while the children barely could do much by themselves.

"I'll just focus on something else…" She sighed, as she stopped glancing Sylphy escape while screaming in horror, completely waving away the visions showing her. "And these ones too… They're all weaklings. I shouldn't waste resources on them."

She quickly summoned at most forty insectoids for Mist, Celica, and Celeste, completely looking down on them as she couldn't really sense any threat from girls that were below Tier 5.

"Demons or not, they allied the heroes, they're traitors that deserve a painful death." She smiled. "Weaklings like you will just die with less than a hundred insectoids. I'll drop in a few tier 7, just to make sure…"

Leaving them to their fates, she quickly glanced at Zack, aside from his abnormal physical strength, without the support of his friends, even the warrior she recognized a bit would succumb to her swarm.

"Okay, a hundred for you, boy."

And then, at long last, she glanced at Luck, who was running away from over a hundred insectoids as well, most of them were spiders for a reason.

"Paralyze him with venom and wrap him up on spiderweb, bring him here once you're done." She commanded the monsters. "Fufu, in just a few minutes, I'll have everything to commence the transfer of divine powers…"

She glanced maliciously at the little Lara, wrapped in silk, and hanging from the ceiling, and then, she quickly glanced back at the heroes.

Allan, Shade, and Arafunn were her true targets, and which she was using every possible power, resource, and ability she had to kill them, or at least, damage them.

"You're the only ones I should be worrying about…" She sighed. "For Allan, the Hero of Blazing Sword, I've thrown you into a world of water where your flames cannot be conjured. For Shade, the Hero of Shadows, I've thrown you into a place of eternal light, blinding, your shadows are weakened completely! And as for Arafunn, the Hero of Songs and Winds, I'll throw you into a world caves, filled with toxic gases and devoid of winds…"

She had prepared three different floors for them, carefully crafting them to target the heroes' weaknesses. And certainly, they were actually struggling.

"I'm underwater?!" Allan thought, a second ago he had entered the dungeon, and the other, he found himself holding his breath in a world of water, there was no oxygen anywhere, and the ceiling didn't had any pocket of airs either.

If he was a normal human, he would surely suffocate and die. His flames didn't worked either, no matter how hard he tried to summon (his flames could be summoned even underwater in normal circumstances), it didn't worked.

"Is it because there's no pockets of oxygen? Even then… this water density, it is imbued with miasma!" Allan noticed how his body felt weakened.

His blade couldn't conjure flames, and was just that, a sword underwater, very hard to move with all the pressure and weight of his surroundings.

"GRUOOOHHH!"

"SHAAAAH!"

"GRRHHHHH!"

Suddenly, as if the environment couldn't get any worse, Allan quickly sensed the presence of several living beings approaching his vicinity. Within the shadows of the depths, dozens- no, hundreds of squids, octopus, sharks, and even killer whale-like monsters emerged.

And their strength wasn't anything to scoff at either, with each one of these beasts being at least Tier 8 Rank 10, and several of them being Tier 9!

"So this is what she was planning all along, teleport us into environments that completely negate our abilities." Allan thought, as the enormous jaws of the monsters approached his body.

Meanwhile, the same scene was happening within a blank, eternal world of pure and blinding light. Shade was on his knees; the pressure of the light was like nothing he had felt before.

It was so powerful that even the shadows beneath his own body disappeared. It was a world without darkness, a world without shadows… a world of eternal light.

"Ungh… Arachne… You bastard…!" Shade muttered. "She separated us and threw us into these damn halls?! Aquarina… Everyone else, they must have been separated too! I need to… Ungh!"

Shade was perhaps in an even worse situation than Allan, the light weakened his body tremendously, piercing through him… because of his unique physique, Shade had absorbed darkness and shadows until they became at least 70% of his entire body.

As the light continued, his body would begin to burn, and slowly yet steadily, he would fade away. His eyes glowed bright red, glancing around his surroundings, mustering strength and his large quantities of spiritual energy and mana, only to feel like the floor was draining it away slowly.

"Urgh…!"

"OOOOHHHH!"

"AAAHHHH!"

"OOOOOHH!"

And then, he heard the melodic screams of strange, angelic monsters descending from the light, resembling a mix between howls and men, they were called Fallen Angels, and were monsters that thrived within the eternal light of the "Heaven" where the gods lived.

For some god forsaken reason, Arachne was able to summon only a couple dozen of these strange and powerful monsters… Only about 18, but they were all Tier 9, and held a clear advantage.

FLASH! FLASH! FLASH!

From a distance, they fired beams of light against him, as Shade desperately started to evade them by running around and jumping weakly.

BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!

"Dammit! I haven't gone through such a challenge ever since that day…!"
