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

Chapter 942 Never Lose Hope





-----

The very next morning, we gathered with Mist after having breakfast, at my house's huge garden. She seemed slightly nervous, as she had called us here to talk with her about something important. Even Zack was not aware of what she wanted to talk about, although some of us could have an idea, it might have something to do with yesterday's talk.

"Thanks for coming…" Mist sighed. "Sorry if this was a bit selfish of me… I just wanted to call my friends here so we could have a talk, it was about what happened yesterday."

"Oh, sure, sure." I said. "What is it? Don't feel nervous and just talk your mind."

"It's just that… I've been thinking for a little while now…" Mist sighed. "I want to go to the Demon Continent…"

"Huh?!" Mostly everyone reacted the same way, except me.

Quite honestly, I was expecting this eventually, her curiosity wasn't going to settle down after learning about her mother just like that. She wanted to meet her kin.

"T-To the demon continent?" Asked Lara. "Isn't it a bit dangerous?"

"You want to go right now?" Luck asked. "I know that you want to meet your family but…"

"N-Not right now!" Mist said. "I mean, when we get older, and have much more… free time. I wanna go there with everyone… Is it too much to ask? I-I'll work hard, so I get strong enough to survive that place too… and I'll also save money too…"

"The Demon Continent…" Celica wondered. "I never thought about going there…"

"Me neither, honestly. I've been curious too but… This place is much better than what everyone describes that place to be." Celeste sighed. "Is this really okay with you?"

"I know about that, big sis, but I…" Mist muttered. "I want to see where dad was buried, and… I want to meet grandma, and grandpa… or an uncle, or an aunt… a cousin, something…"

"Mist…" Zack said, he could clearly tell how she felt.

"After spending that week over Sylphy's grandparents, I began to think that… what if I had a grandpa and a grandma too?" Mist sighed. "Maybe… they're out there, completely unaware that I'm alive! And… yeah, it is selfish, isn't it?"

"There's nothing selfish about wanting to meet your family." I smiled. "I'll gladly go with you! In fact, I was already planning to get there eventually."

"R-Really?" Mist got very happy.

"M-Me too!" Zack said. "I don't know why I was even hesitating, sorry! I'll go anywhere with you, Mist… even to the ends of the world! Let's go together to find your family!" Zack quickly held Mist's hands, giving her a kiss in her forehead.

"Zack!" Mist hugged him tightly, tears of happiness coming from her eyes. "Thank you… I knew I could count on you! I love you so much!"

"Well, it looks interesting, I'm going too!" Lara nodded, crossing her arms.

"Wait, what?! Ugh, I guess I'm going as well if she is." Luck said.lights

"I wouldn't mind going either!" Celica smiled.

"I can't just let my little sister go on her own, can't I?" Celeste giggled.

"I also wanted to explore that place one day, so sure!" Aquarina nodded. "You're also my dear friend, Mist."

"E-Everyone…" Mist started crying even more on Zack's arms.

Yet these tears weren't of sadness or regret but filled with joy.

"Thank you so much!"

This was the day we made a vow to go to the Demon Continent, explore it, find it secrets, and also, meet Mist's family, wherever they might be.

This was a little dream I also had, I wanted to go there and explore how people lived there, if I could be of some help to their daily lives, and to make up for what the previous heroes could had done wrong.

"It's fine, really, you didn't had to worry so much." I giggled. "Right?"

"I mean, yeah. It wasn't something so extreme to ask about." Aquarina nodded. "Ain't no way we were going to leave you behind, even less let you go into such a dangerous journey alone, right? You're our little healer and archer after all."

"I-I'm more than just a healer and an archer…!" Mist pouted a bit. "I'll train harder so I can punch harder too! One day… M-Maybe?" She looked at her small hands, wondering if her statement would hold any truth in the future.

"Your talents is what makes you stronger, you survived alone when we got separated in that Dungeon." I pointed out. "You've more than proven your strength, Mist! Be more confident. We'll still accompany you because… To be honest, I'm not even sure if I could survive alone in that place, based in how chaotic and dangerous it is said to be."

"R-Right…" Mist nodded. "I wonder how my tribe and other demon tribes manages to survive in such a harsh place."

"Sigh… Not ALL places are dangerous there. It is just a very wild continent. But there are cities, and even small nations." Said Beelzebub, sitting over my head. "Most tribes know how to live and survive in the wild, much like Amazonians. They're also born with abilities, the reason why all of us Demons are much tougher than your average human even without any training, we've been born and evolved to better survive our environment… With our unified strength, we've also been able to build safe spaces, where our societies can flourish to an extent…"

"I see…" I nodded. "What else do you know about it, Beelzy?"

"Don't call me Beelzy!" Beelzebub angrily said. "Ahem! And, well… the reason why a Demon King is needed to unify us completely is because within our society, it is ingrained that strength and dominance is what makes a good leader, even if they're tyrannical or insane… But I guess this is changing slowly, seeing how there are people from small nations coming to this country through ships. Maybe… maybe things are finally changing somehow."

"W-Well if I can… I also want to make a change, if possible. Even a little bit of help can make a big difference over time." Mist smiled sweetly.

"…" Beelzebub remained in silence, seemingly surprised by the young demon girl's hope in her eyes. "Yeah… Maybe."

He has really grown softer, hasn't he?
