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

Chapter 1091 Trying To Find Ways Of Communication

-----

”I see! So you want to cook something for my son, alright.” My mother instantly liked that. ”Let me teach you some easy recipes for pastries then, dear.” She said, while we were already eating breakfast.

”Aaah! Thank you so much, Auntie Faylen!” Celica smiled adorably.

”You can just call me mother-in-law if you want, no problems with that.” My mother giggled a bit, although Celica didnʼt seem to get the meaning behind those words.

”I think Auntie Faylen is good enough!” Celica smiled, as she was preparing the dough.

”A-Ah, sure, donʼt worry…” My mother seemed slightly disheartened.

”Mom, you canʼt just force her.” I whispered to her. ”Leave her be. If she has feelings or not, thatʼs up to her.”

”Yes, I know.” My mom nodded. ”S-Sorry about that, I did get ahead of myself, haha…”

I think my mother was rather excited about the idea. I bet she imagined a whole future with Zephy marrying Celica and then both having many half elf and half demon children. But for now, letʼs just enjoy the present…

After having eaten breakfast together, while in between a lot of laughter, joyful conversations, and everyone congratulating Zack for having been recognized by Melodia, we decided to continue our journey across Cloudia.

We stored the giant mutant Yggdrasil clone corpse and once it disappeared, there was a large opening leading outside the ruins, which we took to walk outside. We were greeted by a rather depressing sight.

The giant and tall grass was already dead, brown colored, for several kilometers. It seems this single tree was connected to all these plants. A true Plant Chimera, which should have been its true name, to be honest.

”Well, looks like this was truly all part of that tree…” My father sighed. ”I donʼt know if I should feel happy or sad it died. Well, it had the kidnaped slimes, so I canʼt say I feel bad.”

”Me neither, honestly.” My mother shrugged. ”Letʼs go. The natural vegetation will grow over the dead one in a couple of weeks. After some months, this place will go back to the grasslands it once was, before this tree started spreading itself across it all.”

We moved along after that, the sea of dead plants didnʼt made things much easier, so we decided to just fly over it for now, neglecting any physical training for the moment. Nonetheless, I still tried forging runes, enhancing my body with mana, and spinning the Holy Fire Ring inside of my Soul, while feeding spiritual energy to my Spiritual Heart while we rode over uncle Arafunnʼs giant bird familiar.

We soared across the beautiful blue skies, the winds were stronger than ever today, and they strangely gathered around Zack a lot. It seemed as if the winds themselves were greeting him, strangely and amusingly enough. He was surprised at first by their reaction to him, but as we moved forwards, he began to mediate, letting the winds gather around him.

”Howʼs Pyuku doing?” I asked Aquarina.

”Heʼs still fast asleep.” Said Aquarina, sighing. ”He told me to wake him up once the slimes were finally awake. Iʼm guessing he just wants to ”skip” the waiting time and just sleep through it.”

”I suppose thatʼs fair; he probably wouldnʼt have been able to be alright with all the nervousness he would feel otherwise.” I nodded. ”Mom, how are the Slimes doing?”

”Huh? Oh, the Slimes? Still asleep. It took me by surprise, but it seems itʼll take a bit longer to wake them up. Some more days, perhaps.” She said, without being too sure. ”But theyʼre improving at a steady pace. Donʼt worry.”

”Alright, I guess we have to just wait, Aquarina.” I told her.

”Nothing we can do about that…” Aquarina yawned, resting her head on my shoulders. ”Hey, I wonder, where will we bring the Slimes to once they wake up? Maybe they were living near that place until they were caught… But I donʼt know if its safe to leave them there.”

”I donʼt know either…” I sighed, as I caressed her beautiful long silvery-white hair. ”But I think we should leave that decision to Pyuku. Wasnʼt he like… a special slime? He was made to lead them in a way, a fusion between dozens of slimes to become something greater. Someone that could speak all languages, that had powerful magic, and that could continue growing stronger too. All the limiters the Gods left on their bodies were deleted once enough of the slimes fused and sacrificed themselves into becoming Pyuku… So Iʼm sure he might be something special to the rest. Like a messiah of sorts.”

”Someone thatʼll bring his people to prosperity?” My mother wondered in the distance. ”Yeah, that does make some sense…”

”Well, if they end up wanting to stick around with him. I doubt thereʼll be a problem if we bring them along, right?” Nepheline asked my mother. ”Theyʼre still people after all. It will be a bit hard for them to get used to it, but there should be enough space to give them a home.”

”It depends, but yeah.” My mother nodded. ”From what Iʼve investigated about slimes myself, they do tend to live in large colonies together. So perhaps a large manor for them all would be fitting and cheap. Though, if they donʼt want that, I could always offer them a different deal.”

”It will be hard to communicate with them though~” Aquarina said, looking into the blue skies.

”Canʼt Pyuku translate for us though? Iʼm sure we can eventually learn to speak with each other. They canʼt speak but theyʼre smart enough to understand things. Maybe some sort of sign language. Or written language would work.” I nodded. ”Pyuku did mention that his original tribe had relationships with other demon tribes that lived underground.”

”Youʼre right!” Aquarina nodded. ”I had forgotten about that! Yeah, itʼll be fine~ Pyuku just has to doze off and rest. Letʼs just sit back and relax~ Oh, right, whatʼs our next destination?”

”Well, if we donʼt hurry up, the desert.” My mother said. ”But I want to take things easy. Look, the normal Grassland Plains are over there. Why donʼt we walk? Weʼll find a few little patches of trees along the way, rare herbs and monsters. It will be more fun than just flying over everything.”

”Letʼs do that.” I nodded.
