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

222 There’s No Time To Take It Easy

“I am okay with leaving this forest I guess, but isn’t going to a whole new continent a bit too much of a stretch? Isn’t that a bit too much? I mean... Yeah, it is a lot! Why are we doing this?” Asked Zack. “The trip by itself would also take so long...” I could understand how Zack felt, I honestly felt a bit like the same, but I was also excited about going and meeting my elven family, so that was negated. But even then, I could understand his fears and how he felt about this entire thing. It really made me feel insecure, but our parents were there, they were strong, very strong, and I knew it, even when they have been recently constantly saying “We are not that strong”, they’re very humble, aren’t they?

“I know but that’s what we have decided, we have been talking about it for a long while now, Zack, so don’t be like that.” Said Ninhursag. “I will be there accompanying you, so don’t feel scared for having to travel far away, I will always be there to look over you.” Ninhursag looked at Zack as she petted his head and hugged him, she held him with her arms and sat him down over her lap, Zack dislikes being so affectionate, but he couldn’t fight against his mom’s powerful arms, and he ended being cuddled by her and kissed all over his face.

“Uagh... Okay, I get it! You’ll be there...!” He cried. “P-Please stop, Ninhursag!” Zack was struggling to breathe at this point, Ninhursag can be a very clingy mommy sometimes. Zack was finally let free after he approved this by force, pretty much.

“Well, as long as my parents and Sylphy is there, I think... I can accept it...” Sighed Aquarina. “There will be a lot of people there though, isn’t it? I am a bit scared as well, and the travel there through the sea will also be kind of scary...” Aquarina despite being a magician of water wasn’t that fond of a giant and near-endless water mass, and it was indeed quite scary to travel through it, I had never gone through the sea in my previous life, I had barely visited many places back then actually, so this is going to be a big trip.

“That’s good then, let’s continue moving forward and preparing, we are moving on in around two or three days.” Said Shade. “We’ll get you all out of here safely.” Shade seemed to be reassuring us about this, but there were certain rumors I heard from them about certain... beings lurking around, apparently something is bringing the goblins here, and that something could be another of these stupid demon lords.

I wish Beelzebub could talk a bit about this entire thing, but the bastard is not listening to me at all, and he has been ignoring me ever since he showed up in my soul, he’ll eventually give up, I know of it, but how long will he take? I’ve never seen a fly this stubborn before in my entire life. Ignatius was supposedly from this faction too with the dragons and demons allying but he’s also clueless, and Furoh was a mere soldier, so he knows even less.

For now we ended eating together and then I decided to move to my bed and sleep. But before sleeping, I spent around two hours using Agriculture once more in some grass I had saved in my pocket, slowly gaining more proficiency.

[You gained +1 Skill Proficiency]

[You gained +1 Skill Proficiency]

[You gained +1 Skill Proficiency]

[You gained +1 Skill Proficiency]

...

Hehe... Ugh... I feel sleepy now. I should really just sleep. I wish I could leave this work to Naturia or Alice, but they cannot do multitask while I am asleep, the system skills are tied to my soul and consciousness, Naturia can only use Agriculture due to my permission, if I am unconscious, she can’t. Alice can also somewhat do some automatic skill activation, but the same rules apply to her as well, so I cannot cheat this system and grow stronger even while sleeping, sadly.

I ended falling asleep for the rest of the night and then I woke up the next day with some more energy packed up, so I immediately sat down in bed and began using Agriculture once more. Yeah, there was no time to rest in here, I must grow as strong as possible, if repeatedly using this dumb Skill will make me stronger in the long run, there’s no point in not doing it, the mechanic is simple and nothing too hard to do, and in my previous life I was known for being a stubborn person that liked doing something until I could perfectionate it.

This is why even as talentless at magic as I used to be, I was able to learn several useful Spells and more, and due to this, I was capable of becoming strong and useful, the little mana I had was trained until I was able to use spells and even learned a way to boost my physical strength using mana as well, so I could become someone strong enough to protect myself from my enemies and also become capable of defeating them when I was given the opportunity, thanks to this arduous training, in my last moments of life I was able to take down many bandits at the same time.

And in this life, I’ve given many gifts that have boosted my possibilities and talents greatly, infinite mana is one of those, and this System’s Skills, even if glitched and without the complete capabilities of it, I am pretty sure I can do many things with it, I have to keep trying and gaining more power through this small opportunity that cost us so many years to open, this single Skill will change my fate and make me even stronger... I am sorry, mom, dad, but I am not someone that can easily “take it easy”.
