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

Chapter 243 Moving On

-----

I looked back into the jungle where I had spent many years living between there and my own home. So many memories left behind… So many memorable places where I spent part of my childhood with Aquarina and Zack… I couldn't help but feel a bit of remorse and sorrow as I left that place behind. But I also felt a bit of relief. Relief that we would be able to survive with the amazon away from such a dangerous place, which seemed to be the resting place for an ancient relic made by the gods… I don't know what'll happen with that, but it seemed that my parents were not interested anymore in protecting it, and left it to its own fate, whatever that fate could ever be.

I don't know why, but this feels a bit worrisome, but at the same time, I am happy that my parents can free themselves from such a burden… Although I want to go back there one day, when I grow strong enough and I am more confident that I could travel on my own, I will go there again and see what I can do for this place, it is a sacred place where even spirits gather, so it should be protected somehow…

Oh well, I cannot really worry about it anymore, it has been around a month since we moved out of it, and I can only see the forest as a small patch of greenery in the distance, and only by using my eyesight ability, without it, I cannot even see it anymore. We have been traveling around the grasslands for almost a week as well, after that big battle against the Green Skins, we had been quite calm now. And I have been honestly enjoying this calmness so I can relax from all the stress I felt in such a big battle.

These grasslands are quite soothing, and we are currently following a big river that leads to the coast. My mother said that it would take probably another two months to reach the coast at our pace, but that it should be fairly safe as these lands are untouched by most of the biggest nations, and there are only some towns. These grasslands are quite beautiful, it is a bit soothing to see the grass wave as if it were an ocean by the wind, it is indeed quite relaxing…

We have seen mostly just grass, grass, a few small forests, and more grass. For food? We eat what we hunt and gather for now, although my parents and Aquarina parents are able to deliver food easily and also had a lot saved inside a special space called Storage Space, which is conjured using Tier 6 Space Attribute Magic. In this space they can store items and food. Food will still get bad if it stays for too long there, so they were able to only gather dry foods that take longer to get bad, mostly grains, dried meat, and pickled vegetables and fruits, and perhaps cheese as well.

And today I woke up inside our tent, we often slow down and settle down for the night, and the continue moving over the day, the tents of the amazon tribe are very easy to take down and in, so we can easily prepare them in around an hour and set up everything to sleep well and comfortably.

"Yawn… Eh? Ah, Aquarina… Didn't your mother told you that you should already be sleeping in your own tent?"

When I woke up, I found that Aquarina had infiltered my tent overnight, and was sleeping soundly at my side, she was even snuggling with me and hugging me with her small arms.

"Sylphy… But I missed you…" She said, she just woke up and was all sleepy. She honestly looked so cute that I couldn't really get mad with her even if I tried. And she warmed me up through the night, which was quite cold in these open grasslands. In fact I still don't want to get away from her because she's so warm…

"I miss you too but your mommy is going to get angry…" I said. "She said I needed privacy."

"But you like it!" She said.

"Yeah, but they don't…" I sighed, as I hugged her tightly and kissed her forehead.

"Sylphy, you're extra cuddly this morning…" Said Aquarina as she hugged me back and kissed my nose.

"You're extra cute this morning too." I giggled. As I began to tickle her belly. Aquarina was very sensitive against tickles, I've seen her father and her mother tickling her sometimes, and her cute and soft belly was exposed, so I had to tickle it.

"Hehehe! Stop!" Aquarina began to laugh loudly, quickly covering her mouth for her mother to not hear her voice outside of her tent, however, Nepheline quickly entered my tent.

"Aha! Aquarina, we talked about this already, right? I told you like ten times over that Sylphy needs her private space, sleeping at her side every single night is not okay…" She said while crossing her arms. Aquarina and I felt a bit intimidated, as I quickly came out with an excuse.

"I-It is my fault, I brought her here in the night, I was feeling so cold, but she's so warm…" I said.

"Eh? You, Sylphy?" Asked Nepheline.

"Yeah!" I said. "I-it is my fault, she's innocent, so please reprimand me… T-Tell my mother, even, I am willing to take her reprimanding that take like two hours…"

"Ah… Well, I won't do that, I know very well how annoying Faylen can get." Sighed Nepheline. "Well… Just don't do it again. Although you two like to sleep together, you're not… Erm… Well, I don't think it is that okay… Especially when you grow up… What if you reach your teens and still do this? You'll begin to feel… other things."

"Other things?" I wondered.

"What do you mean?" Asked Aquarina.

"N-Nothing, never mind! Anyways, come out of the bed to eat breakfast, girls."
