Reincarnated With A Glitched System: Why Is My MP Not Running Out?
Chapter 107 Against Walking Mushrooms-----
According to what I learned from what he had talked before, Zack had once lived for over a year in the wilderness. Of course, he lived within the vast dome made of magic that protected the village of the Amazon tribe. However, he lived outside of this place, in the surrounding vegetation where animals crawled around.
This massive dome covered more than a kilometer of land, so there was plenty of wild areas to explore and go around without even heading outside the barrier.
He had explored a fair amount of all of this and was often our guide in such places because he learned everything almost photographically inside his mind.
Apparently, he had escaped the village after the tragedy with his parents, who had perished in a monster tide. He was a little toddler and made a rash decision, but somehow, he survived outside.
However, it was later revealed by Nepheline and Shade that they always helped him out survive in the outside, although they still let him go through the hardships. In other words, they let him go out there to forge his character.
With that, it made him grow stronger than other kids his age. In exchange, this also made his social skills go down a lot, so he lacked any sort of etiquette or manners, even speaking rudely.
But over the years, he had gotten better at speaking without sounding or acting so annoyingly, so I can tell that he had progressed.
I guess it could be said that Aquarina's parents were like his second parents. He always called them auntie and uncle, and I think this made Aquarina a bit jealous. After all, she didn't want her parents to give attention to another kid, even though they dedicated 99% of their lives to her already.
If it were my case, I would have also gotten a bit jealous, but I wouldn't have minded at the end of the day and just shrugged it off.
Actually, having a sibling would have been nice… sigh.
Oh well, despite how hard they try to hide it, I do hear my parents doing the deed sometimes… although it's very faint, my ears were very sensitive. I could tell they tried to use spells to hide it, but I could always tell they're enjoying themselves sometimes at night…
Agh, it's a bit embarrassing, but I guess that means they have a healthy relationship where they love each other and enjoy… well, that.
Maybe having a sibling in the future doesn't seem so far-fetched?!
Oh well. I've heard that elves have very low fertility due to having long lives, so it's very unlikely. After all, I was already a miracle in itself.
Two miracles were just asking for too much.
Nevertheless, going back to the previous topic, Zack was pretty knowledgeable about the forest here, and with my Memory Paper and my special Eye of Light combined with my Heavenly Sight, we had been mapping this entire thing rather well.
My father said that if I made a nice and accurate map, he would copy it and make more. After that, he would sell them to the Amazon as it would help them be able to identify gathering spots to go to and dangerous areas to evade.
That doesn't sound so bad, actually. Maybe I could dedicate my life to become a mapper and travel the world!
I've heard from my mother that the maps of the world were very inaccurate, even more that of the continents…
So maybe I could map them as accurately as possible while exploring the world! I could even make history myself… it really doesn't sound so bad!
"I think I remember the dungeon entrance being around a place with a lot of red mushrooms… but maybe those mushrooms already died, it has been years since then…" said Zack all of a sudden.
"Hmm… mushrooms live for a long time. Perhaps they're around here… oh?" I looked at the side of the forest, right behind a large tree with the shape of a woman's waist and there it was, just how Zack had explained it, a lot of red mushrooms there.
"It's here, Sylphy!" Aquarina got a bit excited, pointing at them with her index finger.
"I can already tell! Wow!" I said, looking at the immense quantity of red mushrooms. They were almost all the same size, plus they were all growing together in a big bunch.
Their caps were red with white dots, and that seemed to indicate that they were obviously poisonous. One look from my eyes of Heavenly Sight already told me they were, thanks to its information which emerged as a strange semi-transparent window.
It said that this thing was called a [Red Cap Mushroom] and that it was very poisonous, causing stomachache, nausea, hallucinations, and death… it also said that it was a monster that would emerge when one got closer, but when they were young, they pretended to be normal mushrooms to not have any predators.
Weird…
Wait, what?
"Hey, these guys grew a lot! I remember they were this little," said Zack soon after, stretching out his fingers. Apparently, they were just a few centimeters big- and yep, the mushrooms began to move.
Rumble!
POOF! POOF! POOF!
Three mushrooms suddenly jumped out of the ground and began to walk with root-feet. Then, they opened their wide, vertical jaws, showing sharp teeth and a long tongue. Ugh, they were indeed monsters.
pαndα,noνɐ1,сoМ "Uwah! Monsters again!" said Aquarina in surprise as she walked back. In response, the mushrooms moved slowly towards us.
"Gryyeeehh…!"
"Guugeeh…!"
"Graagh!"
"T-Those are Walking Mushrooms… they're annoying but slow. We can just evade them, and they'll stop following us after some time." Zack tried to calm us down.
"Oh, I see! They don't seem so strong, though…" I could not help but say, pointing my hand at them before conjuring Fireball using conventional spells.
The runes were built in a few seconds, and I fired a strong ball of flames that hit the first Mushroom that walked towards us.
BOOM!
"Gryyeegghh…!"
Bump!
It fell to the floor and began to burn to death. Hey, that was easy! Easy EXP too!
