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

Chapter 1279: Cultivating Alchemy Runes?!



It has already been almost two weeks since I arrived here, and I had done no Alchemy at all whatsoever. The only miserable thing I've been doing this entire time was using Alchemy Spells to clean the damned house of Felicia!

I felt rather angry now, I was being humiliated! Why did I had to do this? I thought I would learn amazing new things, but it has been this day and day again, it was stressful and just overall annoying.

Dad did his best to cheer us up every morning, making us delicious breakfast and nice meals every day. He could cook really well whenever he wanted to.

Felicia in the other case, had been mostly closed inside her workshop, which we are not allowed to enter to, working on something, who knows what.

Celica and Celeste are already really bored, and are about to just quit, but I've been constantly convincing them otherwise. Even as miserable as this was, it was still training, right?

Thankfully it isn't as if I've not doing anything through these 14 days, I've been cultivating my energies, the Divine Thunder Rings, and the Holy Sunlight Halo constantly.

My Soul felt a bit stronger, and so my body and magic circle, so I was indeed getting some work done. My muscles also felt stronger.

Moving around while squatting or being almost prostrated on the floor really makes the muscles get working...

I've cleared six of the rooms in these 14 days, out of the 13 I had to do. The girls had been going at a similar pace, with five each. We're getting this slowly done.

I believe that by the end of the month, we'll finally be done with this thing...

I hope!

"Synthesis... Synthesis... Extract... Drop..."

I constantly did the same repetitive task over and over again, finding little entertainment or enlightenment at all in all of this.

It was just a tedious job.

"Hah... I wish I could just do it using my skills, I think I could get finished in a day," I sighed to myself.

"Well, that's how things are, but haven't you noticed? After two weeks, something has changed," said Alice.

"It has? Where exactly?" I wondered. "Everything seems the freaking same to me..."

"Calm down and listen to your own inner energies, Sylphy," Yggdra commented. "My inner... energies?" I wondered.

I sat down and closed my eyes, concentrating my Mana Senses into my internal body. My Inner Energies they say... That would be Mana, Spiritual Essence, and Ki, right? Soul Aether could also be considered a fourth essence, but I can't manipulate it.

FLASH!

"Hm?!"

Suddenly, a spark of deep green color surged for a second.

What is this?

I concentrated more, seeking the spark of light.

FLASH! FLASH! FLASH!

Not one, but three more sparks appeared.

The more I concentrated on what I was seeing, the more sparks appeared.

Until I felt them all over me, not just my Physique, but also my Magic Circle, and engraved into my Spiritual Heart and Soul!

It was in everything.

"What is this thing? I had never noticed it before; how didn't I notice it...?!"

"It must be because you've been thinking too much about how everything is useless to concentrate in what you can truly earn in this training," Alice said. "Perhaps you might think this is a miserable way to train, but this is indeed a cultivation method. To continuously conjure Alchemy and use it for literally everything, your body has adapted to it rather rapidly."

"It seems you've gained what I would call... Alchemy Runes? They're all over your Physique, Magic Circle, Spiritual Heart, and Soul now," Yggdra commented.

"But how did that even happened? There's no way I could have done this a while ago! Does it work with other elements too?" I wondered.

"Well to an extent it does, you have a large quantity of Fire and Nature Runes over your Physique, Magic Circle, and Soul above all others," Alice said. "But the amount you've accumulated is based on both cultivation and your entire life conjuring spells so far. Meanwhile, as of now... You probably have accumulated half as many Runes of Alchemy compared to your Fire and Nature Runes through your entire life."

"W-What?!"

I was shocked.

I never thought I could gain this many Runes!

"Is this a thing that only works with Alchemy?" I wondered.

"I believe it might also be related to this entire house, it overflows with Alchemy Elemental Spirit Energy," said Yggdra. "I didn't even know Alchemy was an Element, I always thought it was a Magic School created by the combination of many other elements together, but I suppose I was quite wrong."

"It seems that it was something much better and greater than just that, yeah," I nodded. "Felicia also talked about Alchemy Spirit Stones, no, it wasn't her it was the blacksmith, right.

Her disciple."

"It probably has to do with that. She said the house was her Familiar, so it's definitely a pseudo-living being akin to a golem of sorts," said Alice. "The more you clean and exercise Alchemy Spells inside this house, the more this Alchemy Spirit Essence gathers and forms into Runes."

"Perhaps the wavelength of your Mana also had to do, as you were constantly expanding it and contracting it," Yggdra explained. "Your Alchemy Magic, and as a result your Alchemy Skills... Are probably several times stronger than before now."

"I-Is that even a thing? I can't believe I've been sleeping on this for so long, wow..." I gasped. "So Felicia did this so we could learn a new Cultivation Method involving Alchemy itself."

"She had reached such a high level of comprehension over Alchemy that, although her Temperature Magic, a derivation of Fire and Ice Magic is very strong, it seems she could be called the Witch of Alchemy instead," Alice giggled. "Don't look down on her teachings, as annoying as they might be..."

"I guess so... I have to tell this to the girls, so they regain some of their energy!" I nodded. "Though, I wish Alice could have notified me through the system!"

"It was something the System couldn't detect so quickly, I'm sorry..." she apologized. "I'll tryn/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om

to notify it now more frequently!"

"Alright, thanks a lot for that!" I nodded.

"Sylphy! Lunch time!"

Dad called, so I went downstairs to share the news.
