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

327 Helping The Orphanage

—–

After everyone got together and things were said, we quickly began to move things into the storage room of the orphanage. My mother began to explain to the nuns that the wooden boxes were imbued with special magic that made the ingredients inside grow stale at an incredibly low speed, she said they could stay fresh for a whole year or more, and that if possible, to not put the ingredients outside.

“I had sorted the boxes with special paintings represent what they have, the one with the apple has fruits, the one with the cabbage has vegetables, the meat with bone has all sorts of meat, from monsters, cow, sheep, and fish, and there’s the grain boxes with the wheat painting, those have flour and many other important grains I recommend you eat daily. Aside from this, there’s also exclusive boxes filled with potatoes. They’re delicious and filling, so you can use them for all meals to fill the children’s belly.” Said my mother, as the nuns quickly took note of everything she was telling them, both knew how to read and write, so they quickly brought papers and wrote everything down.

After that, the nuns insisted on cooking for us and all he children, but my mother also insisted on helping them at the very least, so she joined Mary and Lucia while they started to cook all sorts of delicious-looking food. The two nuns were surprising proficient at cooking and said that they were going to make some special preparations from their tribes. I noticed Mary making something rather spicy, while Lucia was frying rice with eggs and meat chunks. My mother helped the two complement their cooking with her Cooking Magic. Her plan was to probably help the children grow stronger and healthier through food made with this magic.

While we were helping them sort out the boxes with items, we also began to distribute several other things. My parents had packed plates, cooking utensils, accessories, and special magic devices. Some of them were able to generate tiny flames and so on. It was nothing too fancy but they were made to improve the daily life of people. There was also a device used to clean things and another to dry out washed clothes. Alongside that, one that could produce fresh water and another that could warm things, with that, the children can take daily warm baths.

“S-So many items...” Said Celeste. “Some of these things cost a fortune in the market, are you sure this is okay?”

“Yeah, those were made by us a few days ago, it is not too hard to create them once you got the items.” Said my father. He was a crafter after all, but I’ve only seen him making armor pieces, I never thought he was a magic item crafter. My father got more talents than I thought.

“Our magic item creation is not the best though, but it is not as if its too hard for us to ask for money for them. Spirit Stones are not so rare if you go to a mountain and mine for a little while.” Said Shade.

“Yeah, I can also use magic to create magic stones of low quality, I use this sometimes to make magic items.” Said Nepheline.

.....

“Y-You can just create magic stones?!” Asked Celeste.

“Ah, yeah, what’s wrong with that?” Wondered Nepheline.

I wonder if she could food the market with her item creation... Or maybe Nepheline could even make gold if she wanted. Now that’s rather dangerous, destroying the market by flooding it with gold... I guess it’s a good thing she’s not interested in socializing with the big kingdoms or nations anyways.

“N-Nothing, never mind... You’re all freaks. I guess that’s what S-Ranks are.” Sighed Celeste.

As the food was getting ready, we all sat down and the children immediately lost their shyness, a few of them began to swarm us with questions, as we were able to see them all more clearly, but over half of them were still being rather shy, glancing at us from behind furniture or within the nearby stairs. My uncle was one of the popular ones.

“Wow, I’ve never seen an elf before!”

“You’ve got sharp ears!”

“Mister, you’re so handsome!”

The little children, mostly half-demons, demons, and beast-kin were all swarming my uncle, who was quite handsome and had a high Charm Stat, if there was no other way to put it. He had a very special aura that made people get close to him, I guess that’s the power of Bards.

A little lamia girl similar to Lucia, but with purple scales and pale blue skin began to coil around his arm, and approached her tiny arms at him.

“C-Can I touch your ears, mister?” She asked shyly. She was so precious and cute that my uncle couldn’t help but let her do it.

“Sure... Have your way.” He sighed, as the tiny girl began to touch his ears.

“Wooow!”

“I want to! I want to!”

“Me too!”

“You seem to be popular with girls more than anything.” Said Celeste. Most of the little children were little girls, they found him as handsome as a prince charming I suppose.

However, my father and Shade were also being swarmed by a few boys, they were interested on their build, as both of them looked rude and cool, the children were naturally drawn to them.

“Wow, you’ve got big arms!”

“Is that a real sword?”

“C-Can I see those daggers?”

“You look so cool! Do you wear black clothes always?”

“Hahaha! You kids want to see how strong I am? Come on, hop into my arms, I can carry all of you at once!” My father immediately began to play with the kids, as the children sat down over his arms and he lifted them all up the ground with ease.

“I can do the same!” Said Shade, competing with my father as he also lifted various children.

...Are they kids or something?
