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

Chapter 1479: Your Resolve

-----

Back then Aquarina had simply rejected the idea.

To be buried below ten kilometers of rubble, it was simply suicide.

No healing spells or potions would save her.

And she had to crawl to the surface, and what about oxygen too?

There were so many things that could go wrong, it was simple insanity.

Yet…

”You will find oxygen down there, there are several pockets of it produced by wind spirit stones.”

”The crushing force of ten kilometers of rubble is not as big as the gravity that broke your legs, did you know?”

”You caved through a mountain with your bare fists, Aquarina.”

Svana looked at her into the eyes, for the first time, Aquarina saw this woman’s serious face.

And her bright, golden eyes, which emanated an incredible ancient wisdom and a heart so strong it could rival all heroes together.

”You can do it. I am sure you will do it.”

”B-But…”

Aquarina struggled to even believe her, but she couldn’t help but want to trust her.

Svana smiled gently, no more jokes, no more cheerful stupidity.

She was seriously talking to her, heart to heart.

”Once you achieve this… Aquarina, you will surpass everything you once were, and reach somewhere else entirely.”

”…It just seems like insanity. Why are these trainings so extreme? Why can’t I just carry some stuff, run around and climb mountains instead?”

”Because that is the exercise of normal people. We are not normal.”

”I know but even then…”

Svana patted Aquarina’s shoulders, as her mother walked to her side, and even her father as well.

”Amazonians are the strongest race in this planet in terms of physical power. We continuously develop muscles and regenerate at a much faster pace than other people.”

”However, most of our kind will never be able to tap into the true strength that we have. And only a couple few ever managed to get so far…”

”Aquarina, you’re special, nobody has ever progressed this quickly before. What you’ve done… your mother took two years, you know? And it hasn’t even been a year yet!”

”Hah…”

”Despite only being a ”half-Amazonian” you’re growing at an exceptional speed,” said her mother. ”I know it sounds crazy and I am really worried too… So I won’t ask you to do it…”

”Eh? Really?”

”Yeah, it is up to you… Svana, I hope you accept my conditions.”

”Yes it’s fine, let’s leave her decide for herself… but let me tell you something, Aquarina. If you can’t complete this trial, you will never be able to pass the inheritance.”

”…”

Aquarina was left back home thinking about everything, her entire life even.

The hardships she had gone through, the foes she has fought, her friends and her lover.

Her father was there, in silence, sometimes he was so silent she wouldn’t even realize he was there.

Yet this time, instead of simply looking from the sides he sat by her side.

”Aquarina…” Shade looked at his daughter with a calm smile.

”Dad…?” Aquarina wondered, realizing she was soon to catch up with her father’s height and surpass him, most likely. ”What… what do you think?”

”I think that you shouldn’t do it,” he said.

”Eh?!” she gasped.

”It’s too dangerous and too risky, I don’t want to force you to do what you don’t want to do,” he said. ”You have a whole life ahead. The things you’ve done are already impressive… I’ve been training you since you were a child, so I am sure you’re plenty strong already.”

”Hmm…” Aquarina nodded. ”But I…”

Aquarina pressed her fists tightly, thinking about her.

Sylphy.

”I want to make Sylphy proud…”

”Ah…”

”And you too… and mom.”

”But Aquarina, we’re already so proud of you…”

Aquarina back then suddenly… changed.

Her resolve, her experiences, her heart…

They were all forged together.

Slowly, she realized that after everything she has done…

There was no walking back now.

”I really appreciate what you said, and what mom said… I love you two a lot,” she smiled, hugging her father. ”Thank you for being my dad!”

”A-Aquarina…” Shade’s heart was moved by Aquarina’s words, and her comfortable, big hug.

He smiled, shedding a small tear.

”Of course… I wouldn’t have had it any other way,” he smiled, patting her head. ”You’ll always be my little Aquarina. But… I guess it’s time for you to grow up, huh? I sometimes think about it, that you would grow up and leave the nest… it makes me so sad for some reason. Even though I’ve always been… quite the cold person.”

”Dad…”

”But you and your mother… you changed my life so much,” Shade sighed, looking at Aquarina’s beautiful blue eyes, which were the same color as his. ”I belong to a family of assassins that were all killed. I was the last. I lived my entire childhood fighting for my life, killing, and being trained to kill more… It never felt like I was living. I was merely a puppet for others.”

”This is… You never talk about your past…” Aquarina was shocked.

Her cold, often expressionless father finally opened his heart completely to his daughter.

”I lived a life of misery… Of hatred and death. The smell of blood was all I knew, the feeling of my knife… of my knife cutting through the throats of hundreds.”

Her father seemed to be in pain as he recalled his horrendous childhood.

”I was made a tool to kill, a weapon.”

”…” Read exclusive adventures at

”But when they appeared, the heroes, my friends… and your mother.” He muttered. ”Slowly I… changed. They changed me. I was reluctant. I was aggressive sometimes… I once even almost killed Allan… But… those idiots. No matter how threatening I was, no matter how dangerous I seemed, they would always come back to me, and extend their hand.”

”Haha… you were a little monster.”

”Indeed I was, I was so stupid… I rejected their kindness,” he sighed. ”But slowly I learned to love, and I learned to hold bonds. Your mother accepted me even with all my flaws… she loved me, she genuinely loved me. And I… couldn’t help but love her back. Despite how it always feels like the two of us are an unlikely pair… we love each other, truly.”

”Yeah, I can tell… after all she’s already pregnant!”

”A-Ahahah…” her father laughed nervously. ”She really wanted to give you a little sibling… But yeah, your mother, and then you…”

Her father caressed Aquarina’s hands, compared to hers, Shade’s hands were much smaller and slender, pale white in color.

”You’re my treasure.” He smiled. ”So I want you to be happy, Aquarina…”

”Dad…” Aquarina started crying, as she hugged her father even tightly.

”Do you really want to do this?” he asked.

”Yes… I’ll do it. I want to become stronger. Do that inheritance… and then go back to Sylphy… Do you promise me it’ll be just that?” Aquarina asked.

”I promise you. Once you’re done with the trial, we’ll fly right back to her,” he nodded.

”Then I’ll do it…” she said. ”I’ll do it!”

She let go of her father as she stood up, her Aura surging from her body and flowing through it all.

Now, she had gained a brown and golden aura, the power of her body’s cultivation manifesting.

”I’ll become so strong… I’ll surpass mom and Svana! …Eventually.”

”So that’s your resolve… very well. I’ll allow you to go.”
