Reincarnated With A Glitched System: Why Is My MP Not Running Out?
Chapter 322 Time To Go Back To The City-----
As we were finishing on moving the wooden boxes into the inventory bag, which had like a small dimension inside that could store a large quantity of items inside, I saw Celeste carrying three of them leisurely. I had just noticed, but isn't she buff as well? And its not magic, she's just naturally that strong!
"What?" She asked as she put the boxes in the ground, and then I placed them inside the bag.
"Y-You're so built!" I said. "How is this possible? What's your Physique Tier?"
"I think I am 3, nearing 4." She said.
"Huh?! T-Three?!" I asked in shock. She was only like six years older than me but already had two and a half Physique Tiers above me… What sort of method is she using to enhance her Physique? Using the Mana Circulation Technique to enhance it seems to be the quickest way but it takes a lot of time…
"It happens due to my bloodline. Certain tribes of demons are able to raise their Physique Tier quicker than other tribes. Some do so naturally as they mature. You're a half-elf, so your Physique Tier advances slowly… I am Half-Demon… I am not afraid of saying it because I don't really shy away from my origins, I am prideful of it." Said Celeste rather… well, pridefully.
"Big sish ish like… shuper shtrong!" Said Mist with a big and slightly frightening smile with her large mouth that opened vertically all the way up to her forehead.
"Is that so?" I wondered. "Yeah, I can tell!"
"She beats all the badiesh!" Said Mist, as she began punching the air with her tiny fist. "Like BOM! And BAM! She got a tail too!"
"Come on, Mist, don't go telling them everything now…" Sighed Celeste, her eyes were sharp and rather untrustful of us. "But yes, here, wanna see it?" Celeste smiled rather maliciously, as she showed us her long and pointy tail, it had a sharp spiny end, and looked like that of a lizard.
"W-Wow… It's really a tail!" Said Zack. "Can you fight with it?"
"Naturally." Said Celeste. "It has a paralyzing poison, so I often keep it away from people, usually I entangle it around my chest."
"Ooohh…" Said Aquarina. "I wish I had a tail too…"
"W-Well, why would you? It is just an inconvenience though… But well, I am prideful of my lineage, even though… I never met my family." She sighed. "But I am happy of my body even if its inconvenient sometimes…"
"That's great! I bet you're pretty strong." I said. "I feel more relieved now knowing that there is someone strong like you to protect the children… Though, what happened to Mist is… We still need to find the culprits."
"Right…" Said Celeste. "Oh well, we'll find them and then I'll detach their fingers and limbs one by one." Celeste's red eyes shone with a brighter red color than before.
"U-Uhuh…" Said Aquarina. "A-Aren't you being a bit too rough?"
"Rough? I guess you children won't understand… This world is not welcoming of naïve people… You seem to have lived your entire childhoods below the protection of your parents. You don't really know the terrible things within the world… You lack understanding that sometimes… It is kill or be killed. Those bastards will get what they deserve. This is what I've done since always."
"Well, we have our fair share of experiences ourselves." I said. "We have killed hundreds of goblins. And other monsters."
"Yeah, don't underestimate us!" Said Aquarina, fire in her eyes.
"Indeed, I have chopped apart some Goblin Champions too." Said Zack pridefully.
"Wooow! Really?" Asked Mist while looking at us with her bright four eyes. She was simply admiring us, and her admiration grew incredibly easily.
pαndα,noνɐ1,сoМ "You? Slain monsters like goblin champions? Hahaha… Didn't your parents taught you to not lie?" Asked Celeste. "There's no way…"
"Eh? She really doesn't think we did that?" Asked Zack.
"Don't be rude!" Said Aquarina.
"Well, it is understandable, we really don't give away any sort of vibe that we could defeat so many monsters, haha." I laughed. "Don't worry, we'll go to the dungeon to complete some quests, if you want to, you can eventually come with us too."
"Huh… Well, maybe." Said Celeste. "I would like to see what you could do if you look so confident…"
"Big sish don't be rude with my new friendsh, or I'll get mad!" Said Mist angrily, as if she was trying to defend us from Celeste's intense stare.
"Haha, it is okay, don't worry." I said with a giggle.
Celeste seems to be a very distrustful girl, she simply doesn't trust us at all… Well, not like I really mind it. However, Aquarina and Zack who are more childish make a whole fuss about it. Maybe they should really calm down a bit, it is not really the end of the world to not be believed of whatever you say right away. In this world you have to show others what you're capable of, most cannot even sense your strength at all, especially by our looks, we are just kids after all.
"Sylphyyyyy! Are you done? Come here kids, we'll go in the carriage back to the city!" Said my mother, as she called us all. When we reached the carriage, Celeste seemed conflicted.
"Can't we meet inside the city, passing through the gates is always a pain, especially because we are demons, the guards discriminate us and sometimes even bully us, trying to extort money out of us… I simply grab Mist and jump out the walls to not deal with them… Unlike thugs, guards and soldiers work for nobles, messing with them will only bring more trouble that could threaten the orphanage." Said Celeste.
"Huh, so they do that?" Wondered my father.
"Don't worry, we'll protect you, we are not S-Rank Adventurers for nothing." Said Shade.
"Eh? …Did you just said S-Rank Adventurers?!" Asked Celeste, she was visibly shocked.
