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

Chapter 1032 Growing The Dungeon

-----

”Here we are!” I said, looking at the big field of cultivated plants and mushrooms I was growing here.

This was where I got most of my basic materials, well, those that were plant-based. I still needed a Mine or Cave-type Dungeon Floor if I wanted to ”plant” and ”harvest” ores and crystals.

I had yet to get one though, but the latest Level I acquired, the Lava one, is already growing steadily with many new ores and items, so I might harvest a few eventually.

”What are the things youʼre planting?” Asked Aquarina.

”Oh, this.” I said, showing her the fruit again.

It was the crystalline, apple-shaped fruit the Sunstone Tree have given to us before.

-----

[Spiritual Sunstone Tree Soul Fruit (A+ Grade)]

A special fruit born from the Spirit Sunstone Tree, made out of extracted Soul Energy and Spiritual Energy, which has been crystalized into a soft, sweet, and chewy candy-like texture, with an even softer jelly-like interior.

Once consumed, it can restore a large sum of Spiritual Energy and Soul Energy, being one of the few consumables capable of healing and strengthening souls.

When consumed, the Magic Circle, the Physique, and the Psyche may gain between 1 to 100 Sunlight Runes.

1 Sunlight Rune = 1 Fire, Light, and Life Runes.

”Oooh, that one!” Aquarina said excitedly. ”I wish I could take a bit though…”

”You can take a few.” I smiled. ”It doesnʼt really affect the growth of the tree because the seeds are what weʼll eat… However, the tree grows faster if it has the fruit nutrients to help it.”

”Youʼre so shmarth shylphy- Nom nom… Hhmm! So shweet!” She continued munching on the apple like a little beast. ”Want some?”

She offered a half-eaten apple to me… It had her saliva all over it.

This might sound a bit kinky, but that was a plus.

”Fine~ You ate almost everything already though.” I laughed a bit, tasting the fruit.

Crunch!

It was delicious!

So crunchy, and sweet!

The filling was really like jelly, and its flavor popped all over my tongue and mouth.

It was just an otherworldly fruit…

And each bite strengthened my soul a little bit, making its cultivation progress.

”Do you feel your soul stronger?” I asked her.

”Yep, it feels much stronger and healthier.” She nodded. ”Whenever I use Abyssal Embodiment, I need to use the power of my soul, but this fruit relieved the exhaustion it felt…”

”Hmm, weʼll produce a lot of these for you then! By the time we separate, I need to have at least a couple dozen for your journey.” I nodded, rubbing my chin.

”E-Eh?! That many just for me?” She asked. ”But you donʼt really need to go so far…”

”Youʼre my adorable girlfriend, why shouldnʼt I go far for you?” I held her hands. ”I-I just want the best for you…”

”Sylphy… Every time you say those things, I end up falling even more in love with you, dummy!” She started giving me little kisses in my lips. ”Take these kisses as punishment! Mooch, mooch!”

”Oh no! Whatever will I do~?” I giggled, catching her lips and giving her more kisses back.

Eventually, our tongues intertwined as we ended kissing rather passionately… again.

We ended making out for a little while in front of my Harvest Familiars and the Dungeon System Spirit, who was confused about what we were doing.

Alice then moved them elsewhere…

”Hahh~ Give me another, another! Your lips are too sweet…” Aquarian asked for another kiss.

”E-Enough for now, we canʼt just spend all the time making out Aquarina!” I sighed, patting her head. ”Letʼs plant these and then go have breakfast, alright?”

”Geez~ Fine.” She shrugged.

We walked around the large field as we found a nice spot my large Harvest Familiars had already filled with nutrients and mana for me.

”So are you planting more than those?” She wondered.

”Yep.” I nodded, taking several other herbs and mushrooms Iʼve found around Cloudia. ”Since we canʼt just harvest anything we want, Iʼll plant all these!”

Once we were finished, I receive a lot of system notifications…

Ding!

”Well, I spent a lot of Dungeon Energy…” I sighed. ”To think I had accumulated quite a bit by now… But still, it feels a bit too little even then.”

”Thatʼs because the Dungeon System spends Dungeon Energy now and then to handle things on their own while youʼre absent. It is part of the independent system.” Said Alice.

”Really? I didnʼt know…” I said.

”Yes, for example, if monsters begin starving or what they eat disappeared due to overpopulation, they can use dungeon energy to make the food regrow and boost the strength of predators, so they thin out the herbivores.” Alice explained. ”Things like that, to keep the ecosystem from collapsing.”

”It is much more important than I imagined… Thanks a lot, Dungeon System!” I waved my hand.

”Gyuh!”

[The [Dungeon System] wishes master a good day!]

”Thank you!”

We walked outside of the dungeon after working on that, ready to have some tasty breakfast before exploring the ruins.
