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

Chapter 1320: Thereʼs No Need To Be Sorry!

After defeating all those monsters, the Miasmic Nest levels of Miasma Infestation seemed to have decreased greatly, Felicia detected it through her heightened senses and her combination of Mana Aura and Alchemy. Apparently, through Geomancy, she could also sense the levels of elemental energies within a large area, this also worked with the Miasmic Nest.

”Yes, it seems that the Miasmic Nest has calmed down for a bit, but that thing in the center is still active,” said Felicia. ”I wonder what it will be... If itʼs truly a powerful monster then it shall be a sizable challenge.”

”A Miasmic Nest Lord is supposed to be strong, so I am already expecting some ridiculously strong abomination,” I sighed. ”But anyways, we got you and dad here, also everyone else, so it wonʼt be too hard... I hope?”

”Youʼre raising flags, Sylphy...” Alice commented.

”Flags?” I didnʼt know what she meant. ”A-Anyways, letʼs enjoy the meal and then letʼs get going.”

Dad had brought more than I expected, aside from the dozens of sandwiches, there was also a lot of fruit juice, tea, milk, fresh fruit, and some desserts such as cream puffs and donuts. All of them made by him, he had learned a lot from mom and could cook much better than in the beginning years.

”Dad your donuts are so good!” I said, eating them happily. ”Youʼve really become better at cooking.”

”Really? Iʼm glad youʼre saying that,” dad said. ”I once used to think that cooking wasnʼt manly, and it wasnʼt something I should do... But after living as a father for so long, Iʼve come to the realization that it is indeed very necessary. And that I was being pretty wrong back then, Iʼve come to like cooking a bit.”

”I can tell, uncle! Nobody that disliked cooking would make such tasty food!” said Celica, eating her fill happily.

”I have to admit that weʼve been eating your food for almost two months now, and it has been a really good experience,” said Celeste. ”Thanks for taking care of us, Uncle Allan.”

”Aahh, youʼre going to make this old man blush now... Itʼs fine, just enjoy the food,” dad laughed, trying to keep it cool. ”Though, I wish we could enjoy a meal with your mother... and little Zephy.”

”It has only been a bit over a month, and you miss them so much already?” wondered Felicia. ”I thought you used to be tougher than that, Allan...”

”Yeah, being a father has certainly softened me,” said Allan. ”But itʼs also something beautiful you get used to, after so many years... Ugh, I miss my wife... and Zephy.”

”Dad...” I felt slightly shocked he was being so open out of nowhere.

”But thatʼs that!” he smiled again. ”If Sylphy can endure it, I should too, right?” he gave me a confident smirk, the characteristic of a hero for sure.

”Yeah! Donʼt worry about it, dad, allʼs good,” I nodded, patting his hands. ”You wonʼt even realize when enough time passes, and we met again. They said a year only, right? So we can meet with them earlier than the other groups.”

”Wait really? I didnʼt know!” said Celeste.

”Well, as long as you learn in less than a year,” said Felicia. ”But I doubt it, youʼre staying for way longer with me, young ladies.”

”Ugh...” Celica groaned. ”But please no more dust cleaning jobs, okay? I was about to quit everything when we had to do that for a whole month...”

”R-Right... I might have gone slightly too far there,” Felicia said. ”Cough, ahem! I mean... Well! You learned a lot, didnʼt you? And you gained tremendously large amounts of Alchemy Runes, so everything is good, right? Yeah!”

”I guess so... But donʼt do it EVER again, okay? it wasnʼt the idea of what we expected to do! I know it was training, but you could have done it better, master,” I said boldly. ”Please try to consider the feelings of your students a bit...”

”Look Iʼve had a lot of students before you, so I know my stuff, Sylphy...” Felicia groaned. ”Donʼt tell me what to do, okay young lady?”

”So many students yet you didnʼt learn a single thing from them...” Celeste commented. ”Wow, okay then? Two at the same time?” Felicia sighed. ”At least Celica is ok with me?”

”No Iʼm a bit angry to...” Celica pouted.

”N-No way, come on girls, do you hate me that much?!” Felicia panicked.

My dad then laughed a bit, trying to lighten the mood.

”They donʼt hate you, Felicia, theyʼre just playing with you, and maybe also telling you a few of their thoughts,” he said. ”Consider their feelings and what they say when creating ways to train them or help them. I am nobody to say this, but a teacher should guide their students, not just tell them to do a very tedious job for a whole month, get it?”

”Yes... Okay, I understand Allan,” Felicia said, facing us. ”Okay, Iʼll say it... FINE! You got me cornered after all...”

Then she sighed, looking rather regretful.

”Iʼm sorry...”

Wait, she apologized for real?!

Thatʼs new! I thought she would never do that.

”Y-You apologized? I thought you wouldnʼt care either way...” said Celeste, laughing a bit. ”Itʼs fine, youʼre forgiven!” said Celica with a smile. ”Master is still nice and I like her a bit! Maybe that bit can become a lot if sheʼs nice!”

”Yeah, I admire you as one of the heroes,” I nodded. ”So donʼt feel too down because of our comments, we just want more communication. I understand the purpose of the first test, but it was too repetitive and tedious, to the point we were going mad... So donʼt... do that again, thatʼs all. Really!”

”Was it THAT bad?” Felicia gasped. ”Fine, Iʼll make better tests and stuff. ...I have to confess I also just wanted my house a bit cleaner.”

”I knew it!” Celica, Celeste, and I said at the same time.

”Iʼm sorryyyyy~” Felicia cried while eating a cream puff. She didnʼt look that sorry anymore!
