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

-----

Hugging Aquarina always calmed me down a bit. I stretched my arms around her warm back and rubbed my face over her shoulders.

"S-Sylphy, are you okay?" She wondered worriedly.

"Yeah, I am okay now." I said, smiling back at her.

Our faces ended quite close once more.

"T-That's good…" She said, quickly averting her gaze from my eyes. "Youb have pretty eyes when you're happy so… don't be sad."

"Pretty eyes?" I wondered.

"Yeah, they're as shiny as jewels…" Aquarina added while growing intensively red.

I couldn't help but grow embarrassed of being called beautiful like this too, and from Aquarina to boot. I ended quickly stepping away from her before the situation were to get weirder.

"S-Sorry for getting too close." I apologized.

"Oh, it is fine!" She said happily. "After we are done with the orphanage let's go hunting, I am still looking for good materials to commission something for you with them!"

"Do you really have to go to such lengths? Geez…" I sighed.

"Of course! I can't lose to Zack." Aquarina said.

"Then let's go for now." I said.

We quickly moved back to the city through the same route we use once more, walked through the same streets and then, arrived at the refurbished orphanage. I could already hear the many voices inside walking and many people running around, most likely the children who were enjoying their new and big home.

"We are back!"

Knock, knock!

Nepheline quickly knocked the door, seconds after, Mary greeted us with a gentle smile, although a bit forced, her hair was a mess right now and she had paint all over her nun dress. The children behind her were playing around with paintbrushes and making a big mess.

"W-Welcome back everybody…" She sighed. "W-We are currently quite busy, you see… the children loved the paintbrushes you brought and had been painting to their heart's content… Hahah…"

"Gods… We shouldn't had given them such dangerous tools." My mother said.

Apparently my parents wanted the children to paint whatever they wanted. I do remember they often gave me paintbrushes and paper to pain when I was younger to pass the time. I did some serious pieces of art they used to put in the walls.

At the end, we entered the room after getting through the big mess going on inside. The moment we stepped in, the little Mist greeted us, with the usually gloomy Celeste behind her. She seemed slightly more calmer than before.

"Sylphyyyy! Aquaaaa! Zaaack!"

It has only been three days since we didn't see her but she was all happy and spoke as if she had missed us for a long time.

"Hello Mist, how are you doing?" I asked. Mist beautiful four eyes seemed very happy, as her big jaws began to smile cutely.

"I'm good! But I missed you three! You're my best friends because I am a big girl now… I have to be with big kids." She said, talking something out of nowhere.

"Eh? You're smaller than the three of us though." Said Zack.

"T-That's… Well, yeah but still!" She said while being slightly angry. "I missed you too Zack, give me a kiss!" The little Mist tried to get closer to Zack but he quickly stepped back.

Instead, I gave her a kiss in her cheeks.

"Sorry but Zack is a bit shy with girls so pretty like you, Mist." I sighed.

"Uwaahh… You gave me a kish in the cheeks!" Said Mist while blushing.

She loved all sort of attention and affection; she was very adorable. Mist quickly jumped over me and kissed my cheeks as well.

"Big shis Sylphy!" She said.

"Big sis?!" I asked.

"Youwe big shish!" She said.

"Hehe, am I now? What happened with Celeste though?" I wondered.

"Oh, Cheleste is also big sish!" Said Mist.

Celeste smiled as she walked towards us, quickly giving me a short glare in the eyes.

"Welcome back, I suppose. Are you going to keep coming everyday?" She asked rather rudely.

"Celeste! Don't be rude with them now." Mary reprimanded her.

"Sorry." Celeste said. "I wasn't trying to be rude."

"It's okay. I know we might be a bit annoying." I sighed.

"Well, at least you know." Said Celeste.

"Eh?! Don't be so rude with Sylphy out of nowhere!" Said Aquarina, quickly getting angry.

"Come on, Aquarina, Celeste is like that. She's actually a good person." I said.

"You talk like you know me for a while when you've stayed in this town for less than a month." Sighed Celeste.

"I just know people when I see them." I said.

"Hm, maybe your judgement might need a recheck." Sighed Celeste, shrugging a bit. "Anyways, you seem strong. I heard there was a Dungeon Break and your father was there."

"Oh yeah… I was there too, a lot happened. But before that we hunted monsters in the dungeon, it was pretty fun." I said.

"Fun? So you enjoy hunting, huh?" Sighed Celeste.

"Well of course!" I said.

"Hmph, well, I guess you've got what it takes for it…" She said with a mild smile.

"What do you mean?" I wondered.

"Your entire body emanates so much Mana I don't know what you're even sometimes…" She sighed. "Anyways, I've got some interesting magic books at my room, do you guys want to come to my room?"

"Eh? Really?!" I asked happily.

Finally, Celeste was being friendly! I couldn't really waste this opportunity at all.

"Yeah, yeah. I'll show you some of the Dark Magic I know." Said Celeste. "I am kind of a magic teacher myself, I've been teaching Mist a bit of magic but she got this monstrous affinity with light which I am not that good with."

"I want to heal everybody!" Said Mist happily. "I am a healer! I'll be a priest!"

"A priest demon? That's crazy." Laughed Celeste. "But healers are well paid if they do their job right, so you might be able to help the house quite nicely."

"Eeeeh? I want to be a priest and help people without asking for money!" Mist said angrily.

"Money moves the world, Mist, you'll have to ask for a bit if you want to keep on living." Said Zack.

"Uuuggh… I am no greedy." Said Mist while pouting.

She was really an adorable cinnamon roll even when she gets angry.
