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

Chapter 1266: Annoying Familiars



I wish we could have stayed longer so we could have talked more with the dwarf blacksmith, but we were in kind of a hurry to get back home before the night arrived. The sun was already beginning to set, and according to Felicia the nights are very cold, so its better to get there before it gets any darker.

"Anyways, let's go. We might be able to come back after a week," she said.

"A week? So we're spending a whole week in closed doors?" Celeste looked a bit scared.

"Yes, indeed. You girls will stay with me, your master. It's not like there's much to see outside... Aside from the mines and the dungeons, what else? It's better to stay inside home for weeks, I usually don't walk out of my house for years. I always have a lot of stocked food and other things, so don't worry~" Felicia shrugged.

"Ah, well, I guess... I'll go hunt every now and then though, and shop as well, probably more commonly than Felicia going out on her own, so don't worry about it, girls," my father reassured us.

Thank god he's here, I don't think we would be able to be fine with just Felicia.

I just have the bad feeling she's much worse...

However, there was something I kind of wanted to do before leaving.

My compass was dinging, the Hero I've been looking for was living inside of this big city!

If I followed the compass, I could easily get to them.

However, should I really bother with it now?

By looking at their status, they seem to be doing fine, and they're also busy? It says they're busy.

Maybe they're blacksmiths, so perhaps I should try giving them a visit another day, for now... Yeah, before anything, let's get used to living here.

At the very least I got my Dungeon if I ever want a change of scenery.

Because although it is really beautiful how everything is mountains and snow here, it might get a bit tiring eventually.

Still, I decided to tell this to my dad and Felicia, Celica and Celeste ended hearing about it, obviously.

"So a member of the new generation of chosen heroes is living here, huh? Color me surprised, I never noticed," Felicia laughed. "They must be hiding their identity or divine powers if I haven't found them yet..."

"Yeah, but why though?" wondered my father. "Wouldn't it be better to reveal it right away? So you can become their master. Sylphy said their title is related with blacksmithing."

"I think the same thing, I suppose we'll have to find out another day, we're definitely not recruiting another brat for now," Felicia yawned. "Aye, I am already quite sleepy, I'll go straight to bed. We can begin doing something tomorrow, I suppose."

I guess as much, she was definitely not doing something today...

"A new hero, huh?" Celeste wondered. "I hope they're nice..."

"Me too! I want to meet them! Are they a boy or a girl?" asked Celica.n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om

"I can't tell, it doesn't detail gender or something..." I said. "But it says they're named Ruby. Does that name ring any bells, auntie Felicia?"

"Ruby? Girl, that's a very popular name for people here, even men are called Ruby," laughed Felicia. "It would be too hard to find them with that name! I suppose you'll have to come here once you have free time and use your eye power to find them."

"I guess so... There's no helping it," I shrugged.

As we made our way outside the city, we found ourselves facing the cold snowstorms outside. We were right in front of a deep pit...

Wait, is there no way to get where her house is normally?

"Um, are we going on a flying airship or something?" asked Celeste.

"It looks like a bad fall; we might die if we fall from here!" said Celica.

"Well, my house is not exactly situated in a safe place," said Felicia. "I usually go flying and come flying. It's over there, do you see the blue mountain?"

She pointed at the distance with a carefree and slightly sleepy expression, there was a large, blue colored mountain covered by snow and several large blue crystals.

These crystals were ice and water spirit stones, and there were hundreds of them!

"Anyway, that's my home over there, a little dot resting over a cliff, see it?" she asked. "You see, there's no bridge to that place. No people would ever go there, it is too dangerous after all, haha."

"T-Then how do we go there?" Celica asked. "Um..."

"We go flying, of course! Come on, Allan, can you bring them there?" Felicia asked.

"I guess I should," dad nodded, summoning the Phoenix Familiar.

FLASH!

An explosion of flames surged, as a beautifully red and rainbow-feathered bird appeared. And this was their smallest form, actually.

"It has been a little while since our last encounter, everyone! Allan, you've summoned me to carry them didn't you?" sighed the Phoenix.

"Please?" my father asked.

"Hah, you have to know that I am a Legendary Creature! Not just your flying vehicle!" the Phoenix complained. "But... Well, I am quite fond of the children, so fine. As long as it is them. Though, you fly on your own, Allan."

"Eeeh?! Why am I excused?!" my father complained. "What did I even do this time..."

"Hmph, well, the last time you even summoned me was over a year ago!" the Pheonix complained. "You sure are the worst, never taking good care of your Familiars!"

"I always do my best..." my father sighed. "Sorry... Ugh."

Whenever we see dad, he's always being nagged at by his powerful Familiars. I suppose that's what he has to go through as a normal human that has contracted with so many fantastical beings. He has to act very nicely with them, even when they complain all the time.

After jumping over Phoenix' warm back, we flew into the skies, reaching the farthest areas of the mountain range, and arriving at the blue mountain quite quickly.

The snowstorm was strong and very cold, but the warm feathers of Phoenix kept us warm and

cozy.

Slowly, she landed near the house, as we made our way out.

"I'll be staying around this time! I am a bit sick of the Soul Scape," Phoenix stated.

"Fine, you can stay..." dad sighed. "Hah, what a pain these familiars are..."
