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

Chapter 355 A Conversation Between Parents

-----

"I want to help these people too, but I also want to hurry to the continent of Atlanta…" Sighed Faylen. "This orphanage… Should we bring them with us as well?"

"I had thought about it too, to be honest, it does seems as the most logical thing to do after seeing how they are discriminated. They just tried to blow them up… Bastards." Said Allan while feeling slightly angered.

"Hm… This place brings me bad memories… About everything we did…" Sighed Faylen. "I just wanted to live a peaceful life. But at the end, the phantoms of the past are always following us everywhere… I can't say I don't feel guilty about them, nor that I find them an annoyance either. I suppose it is my duty to help these people. It's the least… I can do."

"Yeah, but you're pregnant, aren't you? So you're resting." Said Allan. "Leave it all up to us, don't worry. Just take care of Sylphy."

"Hmm… I want to help too, so I am going to go visit the orphanage tomorrow again, you're coming?" Asked Faylen.

"Of course, we are going with Sylphy as well… She said she wants to do some quests for the adventurer guild, it would be a good way to let her get some experience fighting the monsters inside a dungeon, right? Also, there's the whole deal with the Miasmic Cocoon…" Said Allan.

"Yeah, that… I don't know if we should bring her to the dungeon in that regard if that thing is enhancing the monster's strength." Said Faylen as she seemed worried about her daughter's wellbeing.

"You shouldn't worry, any of the adults can accompany her and Aquarina. They also got their familiars. And didn't they just beat Goblin Champions back then? They're plenty strong if you ask me." Allan said, quite prideful of his daughter.

"We don't even know the true Rank of those monsters…" Faylen's voice slowly grew more angered at Allan's carefreeness. "Did Arafunn made you this way in just a few weeks since he joined us? I am feeling like you're reverting back to the brat you were, stop being so carefree."

"Well, you also shouldn't be so overly concerned, we got the spirits always protecting the girls." Said Allan.

"But… what if something like what happened before happens again? What if our spirits are negated and… they're both captured?" Asked Faylen. "I don't want Sylphy to go through the same thing, Allan… Her body is strange, she might as well have a mysterious power that made her strangely immortal in some sort of way, I have not done anything to her to investigate more because I fear I might end up scaring her… But… Even then, she still probably felt pain, and I doubt this powers of hers is endless, she's still weak, not strong enough to fight against all the threats… If something were to happen to her, I-"

"I told you that we'll go with the kids, nobody is going alone this time, any of us adults will accompany them into the dungeon. Even if a god shows up, even Ninhursag should be powerful enough to grab the kids and run away." Said Allan.

"…Well, if we accompany them it's alright." Faylen quickly calmed herself. She was slowly making her fears resurface, and the trauma of having seen her little girl all destroyed in that day several years ago. However, due to the comforting words of Allan, she calmed down and realized that if the kids were always with a strong adult, even in the worst-case scenario, things might be possible to be handled well.

"The Goblin incident went far from our expectations… But things should be more alright now, right?" Asked Allan. "We can handle things better now if we prepare well. The kids can also go on their own sometimes too, the spirits-"

"Allan, you're just going back to the same thing again…" Sighed Faylen.

"True… We can't rely completely on the spirits." Sighed Allan. "But that girl really craves for adventure and challenges, despite all the things she had gone through, she's really like…"

"Like you, huh? Yeah, I can tell… If she was more like me, she would stay at home learning alchemy and other things, but she loves to put every sort of magic or technique she learns into action. Her powers are also fantastical and the spirits she has are strong too… She got a bright future, and her attitude will only make her die sooner than later if she's not guided the same way I guided you." Faylen said.

"…Right, back then in every situation, well, most of them, you were always there for us. Healing us, supporting us, guiding us, and protecting us. There was no way I wasn't going to fall for you." Laughed Allan.

"D-Don't say it like that…!" Sighed Faylen. "A-And anyways, so tomorrow… We'll go to the orphanage, and then Sylphy should make a party… Does she has the necessary equipment and items for dungeon delving? Dungeons are dangerous and big, she needs better equipment too, she got a chainmail made out of that lizard's skin and dragon scales you made for her, but I feel like she needs a protection for her head, and also shoulder pads, but those are heavy… We could make some light ones with lighter and more magic-infused materials I guess. And maybe also give her something else than a sword, like a dagger, perhaps? Oh! Has she practiced with the bow? Long ranged attacks with bows are often way more secure for a child like her than going one-on-one-"

"Haha, okay, calm down, you're getting too excited now. It's fun, isn't it? To think about her and how she slowly grows stronger and more smart? Guiding her, equipping her, and seeing her in action, despite all the things we went through with her and all the dangers… You have to admit it, it's fun, isn't it?" Allan said with a charming smile, as Faylen felt like she skipped a beat.

"R-Right… I guess it is a bit… Well, it keeps me busy from having other thoughts." Sighed Faylen. At the end she didn't admitted it, btu Allan knew she meant it.

"Well, tomorrow we'll do that and more then! Aquarina and Zack too, don't forget those two either." Said Allan.

"Yeah, yeah, I know. They're inseparable from her…" Sighed Faylen.
