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

—–

“And what about Ember?” Wondered Zack. “That’s the other Skill? Wait… Is that why you always just used fire magic?”

“Well! Aside from fire magic being my main attribute, yes.” I nodded. “Even though the Skill has evolved already, I can still conjure it. Look [Ember]”

FLASH!

A tiny flame emerged, this was the Ember as its base Level 0 form, its Level 10 Form was like ten times as big and much stronger.

“Wha…?! So tiny!” Said Mist. “Can it really become a strong spell?”

“Well, back then I couldn’t manipulate it into something larger.” I explained. “But I could do this… [Ember], [Ember], [Ember]!”

By constantly spending my Mana and conjuring the Ember over and over again, the tiny flames fused together into a gigantic fireball floating above my head.

FLUOOOSH!

“W-What?!” Zack was shocked. “So you just conjured the Skill over and over again?! And that worked?”

“Well, it sounds simple to me…” Celeste said. “But I guess Skills as a concept didn’t exist before Sylphy showed up in front of me, so I guess I could had just used higher tiered spells instead of the same tiny spell.”

“Skills have the benefit of not needing any conjuration, magic circle, or runes. I could use them even when I didn’t had any magic circle inside of my heart.” I explained. “Pretty cool, right? [Ember Deactivation]”

POOF!

The flames quickly dissipated as if they had never existed.

“This is another of the powers of the Skills, the ability to deactivate and make their effects instantly disappear, something spells can’t do too well.” I explained. “You all can do it too, I think.”

“Usually when a Spell is deactivated forcefully, they backfire on the conjurer and explode, and might even damage them…” Aquarina nodded.

“Woah, I didn’t knew they were this deep, I thought they were just to boost our already existing abilities.” Said Luck. “But they’re like… separate powers of their own that somehow complement our already existing spells and techniques! I feel like I can begin using my Skills much better after learning about that fact…”

“Yeah! Pretty interesting, isn’t it?” Lara smiled as she nodded happily. “I wonder if I can play around with the mechanics of Skills to improve my Spirit Magic somehow…”

“You could, we can try and practice more, we got a lot of time.” I smiled, eating an apple. “Hmm! So sweet! Try it out.” I shared it with Aquarina.

“Oh? This is from Yggdra?” She wondered, biting it right where I had bitten it too, she shamelessly did an indirect kiss… “Ooh! So crunchy… And with Sylphy’s saliva, so it tastes even better.”

“A-Aquarina!” I felt embarrassed by her saying something so unhinged.

“What?” She wondered. “But your saliva is tasty, I always lick it when we kiss!”

“W-Wha… S-Stop it, you’re embarrassing me…” I covered my face in embarrassment.

I was surprised nobody found it disgusting, but they laughed… I guess they understand that she’s quite something sometimes.

“S-Sorry…” Aquarina quickly realized she made me embarrassed, apologizing.

“D-Don’t say that out loud…” I said. “There are certain things that are only for the two of us to talk about, o-okay? Don’t talk them all over the place…”

“O-Okay…” She nodded, feeling a bit embarrassed after realizing I got a bit mad. “Don’t get mad…”

“I’m not mad…” I said, although I sounded quite angry.

“She’s really like her mom, huh?” Zack joked around while he was eating a sandwich. “Prepare yourself Aquarina, you’ll have to have a lot of patience with her.”

“H-Hey! I’m not like mom!” I said angrily.

“There… there, calm down.” Aquarina patted my head. “It’s fine…”

“Geez… I don’t have any temperament issues!” I sighed, feeling rather angered by the fact they thought I was being angry.

Wait a second…

Oh.

“Well, maybe I got a bit too angry, but don’t say embarrassing things then!” I protested.

“Okay, I won’t.” She smiled, giving me a kiss. “Sorry I made you mad…” She was really trying to make me happy.

“Aww…” I felt more in love with her now. “Okay, you sound like when my dad comforts my mom’s anger now… Hahah…”

“Heheh, do I?” Aquarina giggled adorably.

“Yeah, I guess you two might be a bit similar now that I think about it. Like dad, you’re heroic, and strong, and gentle… Though a bit reckless and dummy sometimes.” I nodded.

“Ouch…” She said. “But go on…”

“But you’re also very gentle-hearted.” I giggled. “And unlike dad, you’re very cute… The cutest girl.”

“R-Really?” Aquarina blushed. “Am I that cute? And… if I grow up more and end up looking like mom, big and all… Would I still be cute for you?”

“T-That would make it even better actually…” I started to imagine it. “A-Ahem! I mean, yeah, obviously! That’s what unconditional love means; I’ll always find you cute no matter what!” We held hands while sitting next to one another, as I rubbed my nose with hers.

“Heheh… You’re also the cutest, Sylphy… I love you so much.” She giggled, giving me several little kisses. “I love you~ Love you, love you~ Mooch, mooch!”

We kept lovingly embracing one another while talking sometimes and relaxing below the sun, the gentle breeze, and the nice shadow created by Yggdra’s body.

Aquarina felt much more mature than before now that I thought about it… That talk she had with her mom and everything else that happened back on Auntie Aina’s city, might have changed her a bit. Though, deep down she was still the same adorable tomboy I love.

Once we enjoyed the snacks and relaxed much more, we were called by my mom and everyone else. We left Yggdra’s true body as we moved back to my old house once more.

This time, it was rather clean now! They spent most of the day cleaning the interior so everything was as beautiful and shiny as I remember it from my early years.

“So nostalgic… And the smell of the wood, I’ve missed this!” I sighed with a smile, smelling the atmosphere.

“Truly, it is quite a comforting scent.” My mother nodded, smiling sweetly. “Well, it’s getting darker now, so how about we have dinner? We can begin exploring tomorrow.”

“Okay!”
