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

-----

Ugh, I guess even Aquarina does this more commonly than me, I am literally the worst. Even though my endless mana can keep them well feed forever, they still want to experience the joy of eating food. And now they had all combined their efforts into bashing it at me…

"Okay, I'll accompany you, let's make some sandwiches for them, we can use the leftover meatloaf, some tomatoes, mayonnaise, and lettuce, would that be enough?" Wondered Aquarina.

I asked the guys down below inside my soul scape, and they were all drooling, so I guess it works for now. But tomorrow and.. for the rest of my life, I will try to feed them more things, probably I will ask mother to give me a bit of whatever she cooks.

And like that, we reached the area where the food was stored, finding the meatloaf still over a table, it was covered and wrapped in leather, keeping it fresh and warm. We took a knife and cut it into slices, alongiside some fresh bread, and we made up some sandwiches with Aquarina.

"Huh? Why five? Don't you just have three familiars?" Wondered Sylphy. She didn't knew about the existence of Alice, the System, nor of Beelzebub that was trapped in there.

"Haha, Furoh eats a lot, you know? He's a big demon." I said.

"Huhh, okay then…" She said.

"Alright."

I quickly grabbed the sandwiches and opened a small portal into my soul scape. It is possible to store things inside, but they often dissipate into energy after a few hours, and might even prove to be bad for the soul, so it is usually not recommended to store things inside your soul.

However, the food will disappear quickly as they're going to eat it, so I threw inside all five sandwiches, with some freshly boiled aromatic herbs tea as well, and the spirits happily received everything. I had created an avatar inside as well, which distributed the sandwiches.

"Oooh, this sandwich is good!" Said Ignatius. He began to eat the sandwich from a little dragon snout that came out of his eggshell. The eggshell itself had been slowly cracking more over the weeks, but it slow. But probably this means that he'll hatch eventually.

"Hmmm…! Fooo! Foooo!" Naturia enjoyed the sandwich, being a nature spirit doesn't mean she doesn't like meat, it seems.

"Ahh… T-This incredible sensation! S-So this is… EATING?! Oh… I have missed something so amazing! I am so happy I am a Spirit now!" Alice said, as she devoured the sandwich. She didn't had a mouth so the sandwich looked like it was slowly being tore apart with bite marks.

"Uooooohhh! T-This amazing taste! Just what is this sandwich?!" Asked Furoh.

"Just meat, tomato, lettuce, and mayonnaise…" I said.

"M-Much better than the garbage I ate!" Cried Furoh.

And lastly… I used my avatar to grab the other sandwich, the last one, and I flew near Beelzebub, offering the sandwich to him.

"Hey, Belze, want some food? I could give you this sandwich if you join me." I said.

"Eh?! You think you can easily win me over with mere food, human?!" Asked Beelzebub angrily. "…Well, certainly, perhaps I might… Think it if you give me the sandwich."

"So you'll think about it?" I asked.

"…Perhaps if the sandwich is not disappointing." He said.

"Huh… Then go ahead." I said with a smile, as Beelzebub jumped towards the sandwich and attempted to devour it, but it was futile… it didn't worked at all to begin with.

"Eh?! I can't eat it! You tricked me! How can the others eat but not me?!" Beelzebub looked at me angrily, almost about to strangle me.

"Haha, that's because you're not my spirit. Once you turn into a spirit, you will be able to eat! As of now, you're merely a Soul Fragment inside of my own Soul Scape… It is pretty convenient to become a Spirt, actually, and if you grow strong enough, you'll even be able to regain a physical body, I've heard that the strongest spirits out there can reach that point." I said.

"S-Spirit…" Beelzebub looked at my spirits as he finally and genuinely began to consider finally turning into my spirit.

"Tch! N-No! I won't succumb to your temptation!" He said. "He cried. "Get out of my sight at once!"

"Geez, such a boring fly…" I sighed. "Well, I will try to bring you new food every day, I hope you can resist it…"

"Y-You vile monster!" He said.

I flew away while laughing evilly, as I was finally brought back to reality. I had sat down over my bed, and I had already changed into my pajamas. The night was a bit chilly so I was going to quickly sleep. However, as I turned off the candles, Aquarina infiltered the tent and jumped into my bed.

"Aquarina?! I-I told you that you shouldn't come to my bed…" I sighed.

"But we've always slept together…" She said. "P-Please?"

Aquarina looked at me with her puppy eyes. I cannot… resist them…

Ah, I am so weak.

"Sigh… Okay…" I sighed, as she quickly cuddled with me, covering herself with the blankets and hugging me. However, unlike other times, I felt a bit embarrassed out of nowhere. I couldn't help but blush a bit, and I was quite thankful that she wasn't able to see my face in the darkness of the night.

"Sylphy…" She said silently after a bit.

"Hm?" I wondered.

"Do you… like somebody?" She wondered.

"E-Eh? Like somebody…?" I wondered.

"Yeah… I-I was just thinking about it… Do you like Zack?" She wondered.

"Zack? Well, he's… cute. But I don't like him in the sense I think you're referring…" I sighed.

"R-Really?!" Asked Aquarina, getting incredibly and suddenly happy.

"Y-Yeah… What's troubling you?" I wondered, trying to play it cool despite my heart beating incredibly fast.

"N-Nothing! N-Never mind…" She said. "I just… I want to tell you that… Y-You're my heart, Sylphy…"

"Y-Your heart?" I wondered.

"I-It's what my father always says to my mother… It means… Being very close, or something…" She said.

"Oh…"

I didn't really knew what to say… But I felt like it was the right thing to tell her something to comfort her. I don't know if she was being serious, but at the very least…

"You're also my heart, Aquarina…"

"S-Sylphy…"

"Now, let's sleep for now, you don't want to wake up too late, right?"

"R-Right, good night, Sylphy!"

"Good night, Aquarina…"

I hugged her back and we ended cuddling together, sleeping soundly after that.
