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

Chapter 100 Visiting The Amazon Tribe

-----

We quickly hopped on the giant owl that mother summoned, which was her familiar, as we began to fly across the skies. The entire trip was beautiful and uneventful, which was a nice relief from those other trips we took there, which were always interrupted by an asshole that wanted to kill us.

"I see your father taught you how to butcher, right?" my mother asked.

"Yeah, it was a lot of fun, but it was also a bit disgusting," I said in response.

"W-Well, that's how it is. Butchering is a work that he likes to do the most. You see, he's a mercenary that liked to hunt a lot of beasts to make a profit, so he loves to butcher them up," my mother said after that.

"H-Hey! You don't have to treat me like a murderous man or something… it's just essential work to make money back then… well, now that I think about it, we don't even need money anymore," my father said, soon sighing after realizing something.

"True… and even if we wanted to, we could easily get it…" mother added.

"Huh? Are we actually rich? If that's the case, then why don't we got a better house?" I asked.

My two parents looked at me with furrowed eyebrows… did I say something bad?

"You don't like the house we constructed with all our love, Sylphy?!" father asked in a slightly saddened tone.

"Eh? Huh? I…"

"We specifically built that to raise you in there… you don't like our construction?" mother asked soon after.

"Ohhh… N-No! I mean, it's a very pretty and rustic house!" I hastily replied.

Well, I expected a rich family to have those massive and refined manors that aristocrats always had, but I guess what we got was more than enough… then again, I would like to explore more of this world and see what buildings aristocrats had.

"Can we head to the Gallatea Continent one of these days? Head to a town and meet more humans… I kind of want to explore a little bit," I suggested.

My parents looked at me with concern once they heard that.

"I wouldn't want you to do that," father said in response to my suggestion.

"Indeed… it's better for you to not go there, dear… we've already talked about that continent and the people there, right?" mother said soon after.

"But there's no way every single human is bad, right? The same should also apply for demons," I countered.

"W-Well, we feel like it would be a bit too much…" mother said in response.

"Indeed. It would be better to let you grow a few more years before adventuring into a human town, just in case…" father said after that.

Ugh, my parents really don't want me to go to a human town. I just want to go there and explore the place for a bit. Maybe I could join the adventurer's guild or something and do some easy quests like slay some goblins or whatever. I just to change the pace a bit. Being confined in my home all the time is quite boring, to be honest.

Well, I mean, it's fun whenever I go to Aquarina's tribe. The Amazon there are many and they have their own society and stuff, but they're often rather boring… they're more of a tribe so they're very simplistic. There's nothing complicated there to enjoy other than meeting more people, hunting, eating, and sleeping, I guess? I also want to learn alchemy if possible, but there isn't anyone good with that except for my mother. However, she doesn't want to teach me because she says it's dangerous at my age.

Oh well. I guess I'll make sure to do what I can for now until they let me. I know they're worried about me more than ever before, so even practicing alchemy seems dangerous. Then again, I can't do anything over it… well, I could… I could just protest angrily at them, pout, and do all of that… maybe I could get through them that way? Then again, I don't feel like doing that. Ah, whatever. I'll just go with the flow for now…

The trip back to the jungle where Aquarina's tribe was located ended up being relaxing, so relaxing in fact that I fell asleep. When I woke up, I was already on my bed in Aquarina's room. It seems I was carried here.

Once I woke up, I found Aquarina playing on the floor with magic. Indeed, she had lost interest in her toys long ago, instead using her Water Magic to masterfully control it. She created tiny creatures made of water, such as small rats, and even flying birds. It was a beautiful spectacle to see.

All of a sudden, she created a long dragon-like sea serpent, looking at it rather sorrowfully. Was this supposed to be Leviathan? She made him look quite realistic.

"Aquarina?"

I sat up and asked for her name to greet her. Aquarina immediately left everything she was doing. Her water dolls splashed over the soil on the ground as she looked at me with her bright golden yellow eyes.

"Sylphy, you're awake!"

As I was awake, she rushed towards me and jumped on my bed, hugging me tightly.

"Yeah… I think I fell asleep on the way here. I was tired, I think. Just today, I learned how to butcher stuff," I told her.

"Oooh! Really? I also know how to butcher stuff. Mama taught me!" Aquarina said in response.

"Auntie Nepheline did? I see! Maybe we could go out hunting and butcher the beasts by ourselves now. Papa taught me a new spell to drain the blood of corpses easily as well," I replied.

"That's so cool! Maybe I can learn it as well! Papa told me I could have affinity for blood because it's close to water," said Aquarina with enthusiasm.

"Maybe you could try the spell out whenever we find the perfect time to use it, then! For now, how about we eat something? I'm starving." I asked.

"Alright then! I'm so happy you're here! I missed you throughout all the week you weren't here, Sylphy-cha…" she lamented with a sigh.

Before she could finish her words, I petted her silky silvery-white hair and kissed her forehead lovingly.

"Don't worry, sister. I'm here now! So, let's have a lot of fun," I said in response.

"S-Sister? Ah… s-sure!" Aquarina replied, blushing when I called her my sister. Well, she really was like a little sister to me.
