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

120 I Won’t Change My Mind

—–

I looked at my parents defiantly. They would have to use brute force to take out Furoh from my soul.

“I’m not giving him up... I made a contract with Furoh and saw his past. He had only been suffering due to his appearance this entire time... yes, he killed humans, but it was in a war where they were going to kill him if he didn’t do anything... can you blame a person that only wants to survive? Most of the demons that were involved in the war was there because they were offered money. They had their own families they needed to take care of, or their own humble lives,” I told them.

“Sylph...! But... I can’t sleep well knowing my daughter has a demon inside her!” my mother said in response

My mother was still against it, but my father kneeled and then put his hand over my shoulder, looking deep into my eyes.

I then suddenly felt a strong aura coming from him. His eyes flashed with bright light as he looked into my own eyes with a strong will.

“Sylph, is what you’re saying the truth?” he asked.

“Yes... It is the truth,” I replied.

“...”

.....

Suddenly, my father’s aura receded.

“I used the Blazing Eye of Truth, as well as Phoenix Great Judgement... she says the truth. Faylen, the demon is actually good,” father said soon after.

“Eh? You used such powers on our daughter? Are you out of your mind? What if she was lying? She would have been hit by the side effects of such powerful spells!” mother could not help but say out of worry.

“I trust my daughter!” my father said in response.

“...”

My mother sighed very loudly as she looked at me.

“Sylph... we’ll have to talk a lot tomorrow,” she told me.

“Yes, mother...” I replied with a sigh.

Meanwhile, I saw Nepheline and Shade reprimanding Aquarina in the distance. Zack was also being mixed into it as the two were like his relatives.

“Aquarina, I know you like to be around Sylph, but do you really have to jump into danger whenever she does?! As her friend, you must stop her, not help her get into even more trouble!” Nepheline reprimanded her.

“Even then, don’t risk your life so much. What if you end up hurting yourself? Or what if Sylph has to protect you again and she ends up paying for your mistakes?” added Shade.

“S-Sorry... don’t get angry at me...” Aquarina said as tears started to brim around her eyes.

However, unlike my stubborn mother, Nepheline was weaker to her daughter’s tears, quickly embracing her in a hug before carrying her with her big and strong arms, kissing her forehead.

“Alright, alright, dearie. As long as you understand...” she said with a sigh.

“Calm down. For now, let’s go back home and eat something,” said Shade with a gentle smile, kissing Aquarina’s forehead as well.

“I love you, mama, papa...” cried Aquarina as she hugged her parents tenderly.

Zack smiled faintly at the side.

“I-I did what I could to stop them, but they’re way too stubborn. It’s very hard to even try and stop them because they’re so strong...” he told them with a sigh.

“You did what you could and that’s what matters. Thanks for watching over the girls,” Shade said in response.

“You’re like their big brother, so you did what you could,” added Nepheline.

“T-Thanks...” Zack said with a sigh. He ended up not being reprimanded. With that, Aquarina looked at him angrily.

“Now that we’re done with this, let’s go back to the tent for now...” mother said with a sigh.

“Okay...” I replied.

As we entered the tent, my mother and father, alongside Aquarina’s parents, addressed what had just happened.

“So, you guys saw Ninhursag, the Skin-changer?” asked Nepheline.

“Y-You even saw that?!” I asked in response.

“Yes, we saw it. We don’t like to spy your every move but we did see her with the spirits. We got some messages from it,” replied Faylen.

“We can connect our spirits to our minds, so what they see can be sent to us as images inside our minds,” explained Shade.

“I-I see... there was a spirit for all four of you? I only saw mother’s Oculus,” I could not help but say.

“Oculus is the only one that did something because it didn’t know that Ninhursag only wanted to kill the demon. After that, the playful woman decided to play with you and force you to exercise out of her own amusement... I don’t like her that much,” replied my mother.

“But at the end of the day, that woman doesn’t have bad intentions. She was a party member of our main party years ago. In fact, she helped us get through several areas of wilderness, but didn’t stick to the end because she had to protect this place where her people originated from,” father added.

“W-Wow... so she’s actually an unofficial hero?!” I asked.

“Hmm... well, erm... not that much. She’s strong, sure, but she can’t compare to your mother or your father, we’re clearly superior... hmph!” replied my mother. She seemed quite cocky today. Well, I’ve heard that pure-blooded elves were incredibly prideful and arrogant, so her true self might be leaking out there...

“I see... indeed, my parents are the superior ones,” I said while praising her.

“Praising me won’t get you on my good side,” responded my mother as she stared me deep in the eyes.

Sometimes she’s quite scary...

“Faylen, stop it already. Don’t stare at our daughter like that. You’ve never been like this,” father could not help but say.

“Well, I’ve been like this sometimes...” mother said in response.

“You’re reminding me of our early years when you acted overly arrogant and angry at everything we did,” said Nepheline with a chuckle.

“Oh right... Those times, the only thing you did was reprimand Allan,” Shade could not help but add.

“W-Well! I m just worried about my daughter! What’s wrong with being a responsible mother?” my mother asked back.

“How about we eat something, eh? Let’s calm down...” father tried to calm the situation down.

“Sigh...” However, my mother sighed in response. She was temperamental sometimes.

However, after that, she suddenly walked outside the tent as we were left standing there in silence.

Why did she leave the tent out of nowhere?

What’s going on?
