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

-----

"Overgeared? What does that even mean?" Luck wondered, raising an eyebrow.

"It means I'm going to equip you with as many stat boosting little equipment pieces as I can and boost your overall power." I said. "I was already thinking about making smass-produced recipes of my items, and I've got plenty of EXP to enchant them."

"W-Would you be willing to go so far for me?" Luck was about to be in tears.

"Let's call it an investment. But I'll make the items general availability, meaning that I'm only handling them to you temporarily! I'll take them back once you're done." I said.

"S-Sure!" He nodded, thanking me.

"I'll give you sElixirs too, I've got a bunch stacked in the inventory… Oh, how about sBombs too? Those just count as items, so I doubt it matters." I wondered.

"At this point he'll be cheating…!" Mist said.

"Hahaha, well, it's better than nothing." Lara said. "I hope it counts as doing it himself even with the help of items."

After that conversation, I finished the cream puffs by cutting them in half and adding a lot of cream inside, and then pouring caramel on top.

At the end, it was enough to make close to thirty Cream Puffs with Extra Caramel on top, they looked beautiful!

After that, I placed them on the table with the rest of the breakfast mom and dad prepared. Shade and Nepheline ended waking up very late, and Ninhursag had gone out to wander the Sunstone Plateau one last time.

She already had a Goat in her beast transformations repertoires, so she must have gone material collecting, or something else…

Though, when she cback, it was a bit shocking.

"I-Is that…"

"Meeehee!"

It was a baby Sunstone Plateau Goat! It was around a meter tall already, but it was indeed a baby of these colossal beings.

But why did she bring one?

"N-Ninhursag, did you steal this baby from somewhere?" Wondered my mother.

"No… I, well, I've been hearing distress calls for a while, so I followed them and found this little girl alone, almost hunted by a Heron." Sighed Ninhursag. "I know that it is the way of nature and that it would feed the Heron, which might help the bid feed its children too but… I couldn't let it alone."

"You have a gentle heart." Giggled Nepheline. "So we're keeping it? Are you making him your familiar? Despite your shapeshifting abilities, you've never had one, right?"

"I… I never felt like having one, the monsters I hunt and fuse into my powers already felt like my own. Their souls and power remain within me. Perhaps the Goat I absorbed was her mother, because I feel a deep connection with this little calf." Ninhursag patted the goat as she feed it grass and a lot of goat milk we had.

"Aw she's so cute!" Mist was melting at the sight.

"It is really adorable…" Nodded Lara. "She got horns like me! We're goat friends!"

"Meehee!" The goat licked her face.

"Ugeehh… Don't lick my face, nasty! Hahaha!" Lara just laughed it off.

"A Sunstone Plateau Goat Calf, now this is new…" Said Luck. "They must keep them really hidden, we never saw one even after seeing many of these goats."

"Yeah…" I nodded. "Are you taming it?" I asked Ninhursag.

"I-It is kind of already tamed?" Wondered Ninhursag. "I suppose I might as well make it my friend. There's no helping it. This child is my own now. I will raise you like your mother would have wanted. I'm sorry for taking her away from you..."

"Meeehe!" The little goat simply and happily licked her hands and rubbed her snout on Ninhursag's belly.

Ninhursag shed a small tear, perhaps feeling guilty, and formed a bond with the calf's soul.

FLAAASH!

"What nare you giving to her?" Nepheline asked.

"Choose a fancy one." Shade commented.

"I haven't thought about it, but her eyes are gold and her horns too, so I was thinking on Sunshine." Giggled Ninhursag.

"I love it!" Mist agreed.

"A pretty name." My mother agreed.

"Sunstone Plateau Goats are super strong, so once it grows up, it will be a very competent familiar!" My father said. "It'll help you move through any terrain too. And carry you on any travel."

"I suppose…" Ninhursag nodded. "I just adopted her on a whim though… This just shows how the future is always uncertain. Anyways, where's Zack?"

"He's coming over there." Nepheline pointed at the distance, as we were already enjoying breakfast, the cream puffs were given to my mother first though.

"So what's going to be the training, master?! Should I start hunting monsters only using wind magic, maybe?!" Zack asked uncle Arafunn. "Maybe I should sit down and mediate the wind energy or something? Do you have a wind cultivation technique I could learn from you?!"

Wait, did he call my uncle "master"?!

"No, no, Zack. For now, you have to feel the wind in your body, you know?" Arafunn said. "I want you to be in perfect harmony with the wind, with your spirit and your emotions. First of all, composea beautiful song that you'll sing to the wind itself."

"…What?!" Zack was shocked by that. "A song?! Why would I even make a song? How's that makingany stronger, master?!"

"You insolent little- Ah! Patience, patience…" Arafunn sighed. "You see, music is part of my heart and my connection with the wind, melodies and songs are a product of our voice, a voice is like the winds of our body, you see? Harmonizing with the winds is like singing a song. The more emotions and feelings this song possesses, the stronger your affinity with the wind becomes. The Wind Spirits recognize a good singer when they see it!"

"T-This is hard to process…" Zack sighed. "I know you're a singer and a bard and I respect that, but I am not one!"

"I… I just don't have another method of teaching you, dear." Arafunn shrugged. "Take it or leave it."

"Uuughh…"

It seems my friend Zack has been picked as the Hero of Wind's disciple, and the first task he had was to make a song!

I am looking forward to your struggles, my dear friend, heheh!
