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

-----

"S-She really just hunted it…" Nepheline facepalmed.contemporary romance

"Oh well, we'll have that for dinner." Shade smiled.

"She's good! I liked what I saw. Her Beast Aura is developing so well too!" My mother seemed really happy.

"Aquarina's amazing." My father nodded.

"Right? She's the best!" I smiled, puffing my chest as I felt proud of her. "Praise her more!"

"Sylphy, I got it!"

Aquarina started running towards us while carrying the huge, seven-meter-big goat in her arms, it was badly damaged, so the leather wasn't going to be of the best quality.

However, the horns were intact, and they were an amazing source of magic for the creature, so I'm sure that was going to be a nice material.

"Well done!" I hugged her and gave her a big kiss. "Mooch!"

"Hehehe, let's cook it up and eat it." Aquarina smiled, feeling proud. "Also, I think the leather, bones, and horns are good materials, right? You could make something up with that!"

"You're giving it to me for free?" I wondered.

"Why not? You can pay me with more of your lovely kisses, hehe." She giggled.

"Then I'll gladly pay you~!" I embraced her and covered her face with kisses.

After we finally stopped acting all lovingly, I decided to pack the goat inside of my inventory for the time being. We'll butcher it later. Of course, I made sure to check on the golden horns.

"The quality of the horns is incredible…" I said, as we continued making our way through the rocky pathway towards the Plateau. "It seems to be made of a unique metal that only these goats produce. It was almost as tough as mithril too!"

"It must be a new metal that hasn't been discovered widely yet." My mother said. "It might not even have an official name yet, how about you give it one?"

"Aquarina, do you have a name in mind?" I wondered.

"A-A name?" She asked, as she was snacking on a sandwich I had made for her before we departed. "Hmm… How about Sunlit Ore? Well, it's not exactly an ore but…"

"Sunlit Ore sounds fine to me!" I nodded immediately. "You're not bad at all at naming, huh?"

"R-Really? I never thought about it too deeply…" She wondered. "Maybe I'll name our kids eventually then…"

"Y-You're already dreaming about having kids?" I muttered.

"Hehehe! Yeah! We'll have a big family!" She giggled.

I suppose we could adopt children, yeah. There are orphanages everywhere after all… Oh, that gave me an idea.

"Maybe we could even open up an orphanage someday…" I wondered.

"Oh.. You want to, Sylphy?" She wondered.

"Aaah, I don't really know if I would be able to deal with too many children though, haha!" I giggled. "Though helping on managing one while still having our own house wouldn't be so bad."

"I see…" Aquarina seemed excited about my idea. "There are always orphans everywhere after all the wars… Giving them a home to belong to is something really nice to do, I should had expected you would have had such an idea. You're such a good-hearted girl!"

"You're praising me too much." I giggled, feeling embarrassed. "But whatever plans we might make now, they might not even come to fruition, the future always changes a lot… Not even I who can see a bit of it can see all the possibilities. I guess the best thing we can do is enjoy the present."

I held her hand as we walked together, she seemed to agree.

"I guess you're right~" She said. "Though, I can't wait for the future where I'm eating that goat's ribs covered on some tasty sauce…" She began drooling.

"Hahaha, you're always so hungry." I laughed at her goofiness.

We continued our path while chatting with our friends, Pyuku joined the conversation bit by bit, and so did Nephilim. The two were a lot shier, but with the atmosphere we exuded, they ended opening up quite quickly.

"The view from here is so pretty…" Nepheline said. "The rocky lands mixed with the grassy areas and look at how blue the sky is! Though, the sun is already going down?"

"Looks like we'll be camping in front of the plateau today." Zack said. "Maybe I should hunt a goat too? I don't know if a single one would be enough meat… Also, are they expensive? I could make a fortune if I sold a few of their horns…"

My mother, however, gave her a deadly stare.

"Don't overhunt them, they're sacred creatures of this area, Zack."

"Y-Yes ma'am!"

"You heard the missus." Mist giggled. "We can hunt some if we happen to find them inside the dungeon that we'll pass through though!"

"Oh yeah, you're right." Zack nodded. "I hope there's some good finds in that dungeon!"

"Mom, are they really sacred creatures?" I wondered, raising an eyebrow.

"I-I guess they are? I mean, look at them, they're so majestic…" My mother just had made that up. "Hunting one is enough I believe, we got plenty of materials out of one. Hunting more would be overhunting."

"Alright~" I shrugged. "Anyways, Pyuku, anything yet?"

"Hmmm.." Pyuku had a big antenna over his head made out of his own slime, which he was using to detect other slimes. "No, nothing yet… But I'm sure we'll eventually find someone, one day."

"Don't lose hope." Nephilim smiled gently.

"T-Thanks, I won't!" Pyuku nodded, feeling more motivated.

"And this is our stop for today."

Once we reached the plateau, we stopped. There was a large opening area with a cave nearby, which was small but had enough space for all of us.

"Let's camp in here then!" My father was excited. "Man, been a while since we camped properly, without having to worry about enemies chasing us around…"

"You're right, it is quite a soothing experience all around, brings me back to our earlier days." Shade agreed.

"It sure does!" Nepheline stretched her arms and legs. "Hahh~ I want a warm bath though, let's set up the camp quickly! Ninhursag, come help too!"

"Ah, yes." Ninhursag, who had been vibing with nature for a while in silence, quickly ran to help us set the camp.

The sun was slowly setting, and a day was coming to an end.
