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

Chapter 1276: The Golden Phoenixʼs Help

The night arrived and Zephyrus, Mist, and Lara prepared the tent with Faylenʼs aid. The mother elf then created a mighty barrier around them so no monsters would bother them, then, leaving them on their own, she started preparing dinner.

”Your momʼs so amazing, Zephy, she knows everything!” Lara said happily.

”Yeah!” nodded Mist. ”Sheʼs really incredible... Auntie Faylen is my role model. I want to be like her when I grow up...”

”Hahah, yeah, momʼs amazing,” Zephyrus nodded. ”With her, I know we wonʼt have to worry too much... But still, the air is a bit tiring to breathe... Ugh...”

”Yeeeah, weʼll have to get used to this eventually,” Lara nodded. ”Luckily, the spirits are here with us, theyʼre cheering for us and helping us a bit!”

”Is that so?” wondered Mist. ”How many spirits are around me, Lara?” Mist wondered.

”A lot! Thereʼs like hundreds, they really love you, Mist!” said Lara with a smile.

Mist felt really happy to hear that.

If the Saintess of spirits said that it truly meant something good.

Natural spirits of the world were tiny beings whose individual strength amounted to very little.

However, they were trillions upon trillions, constantly being born everywhere, they created and maintained the magical, elemental, and spiritual aspects of the entire world.

They were the true pillars of everything, and although one was weaker than an average monster, all of them were a little grain of sand in the great desert.

Together, they made the world as it was.

That spirits flocked around someone by the hundreds meant they had a high affinity with certain elements and great potential to learn them.

Spirits of nature would naturally assist people in the conjuration of magic if they licked them or not, this is why sometimes magicians with low aptitude or talent could still exceed at certain elements if they had this attraction with nature spirits.

Usually, this wasnʼt something well studied, however, but all Elves knew very well of this secondary talent or ”affinity”, it was the ”Spiritual Affinity”, something that might or might not develop based on a personʼs lifestyle, their personality, or something else.

It was an affinity that allowed people to be helped more by nature spirits than others. Not only elves had this but everyone in the entire world.

However, because only Elves can create a Spiritual Heart, they often receive more help because they can attract nature spirits with the spiritual energy they produce naturally from their bodies.

Mist here, however, had none of that, it was just her own personality, her upbringing, her life, and her hard work that captivated the spirits of nature.

Her strong affinity with Light, it wasnʼt because of talent, although it was because of very hard work, and the assistance of the Light spirits, that slowly flocked around her, seeing her as someone special.

Her hard work and her relentless pursue for saving and helping others... this are something light and life spirits appreciated the most.

”Iʼm so happy for that! It means they like me, hehe! Isnʼt that right, Snowflake?”

Mist called for her little Light Spirits, Snowflake, who nodded cutely with his rabbit-shaped head.

”I bet not many flocks around me, isnʼt it?” wondered Zephyrus. ”Unlike big sis, I donʼt have that much affinity with spirits. I think they fear me for some reason...”

Lara looked at Zephyrus, although before, they would never get close to him, it had suddenly changed. Perhaps because he had assimilated the power of the Golden Phoenixes, making him more attractive to the spirits.

Before, not even the darkness and blood spirits got closer for some reason! However, now those two did, and even light and fire spirits.

It wasnʼt by the hundreds, there were only a few dozens, but they were more than enough to show he was beloved by them.

”Youʼre wrong, Zephy! There are dozens of them, they like you...” Lara smiled. ”I donʼt know why they didnʼt approach you before... Perhaps it was because youʼre so strong! But now, theyʼre closer. Maybe now that youʼve gotten the hang of your abilities?”

”I-I guess? Really?” wondered Zephyrus. ”The spirits... they donʼt fear me anymore?” Zephyrus felt slightly moved by this revelation, one of the things that made him feel inferior to his sister was that spirits simply didnʼt like him for some reason.

He had always dreamed of having a familiar spirit or something but could never have any of that. The Golden Phoenix Egg he had made a familiar contract with was still incubating inside of his Soul Scape.

Its powers were already connected to his, and as the egg grew stronger, his powers would also receive a boost, and vice versa.

The little Golden Phoenix Chick there would become his first ever Familiar, well, it already was made into a familiar before it was even born, but still, Zephy saw it differently.

However, it was taking too long to hatch! And he was feeling a bit lonely when everyone else had at least one spirit familiar to talk with, and not him.

Even more, his sister had so many it was ridiculous!

”They donʼt fear you, donʼt worry!” smiled Lara. ”I think you should make a contract with any spirit if they ever appear, the big ones I mean. Little ones canʼt make contracts, their little souls canʼt take on that burden.”

”I-I see! I really hope... I really hope that happens,” Zephy nodded. ”I want to surprise big sis and make her proud too... Ahh, I miss her...”

”Me too...” Mist nodded. ”I miss big sis Celeste, and Celica, and Sylphy... and my Zack. I miss Zack...” Mist, who had been trying to bottle up her feelings, was about to burst into tears.

”C-Calm down, itʼs alright, Mist, Zack is fine out there!” Lara patted Mistʼs shoulders. ”Donʼt worry about it! Just like Luck and everyone else!”

”Lara...” Mist sighed. ”Maybe... I-I guess Luck did go with Zack, theyʼre very good friends nowadays. I bet theyʼll get along just fine.”

”Yeah!” nodded Zephy. ”Theyʼre so strong and reliable, like big brothers. I know they will be okay anywhere.”

”Thank you Zephy... I really hope so. I miss him though, even now, and probably for the rest of this trip...” Mist looked into the starry night sky with her friends, the beautiful moon shining

brightly.
