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

-----

For some reason, my mother is being too stubborn over the whole swordsman thing. Well, what she doesn't know is that I've already trained with the sword inside my Soul Scape, but I guess she thinks a little girl can't wield a weapon… despite knowing I have more strength than the average person after eating dragon meat, as well as bathing in its blood. I have to tell her and show her that I'm pretty good at wielding a blade!

"Mommy, trust me! I want to be a swordsman! I will also train magic with you… Theia blessed me… and Aeolus too! Maybe I can also use Light Magic like you now," I told her.

My mother stopped discussing their current topic with my father as she looked me with her beautiful blonde eyebrows raised.

"I-Is that so? Well… okay… fine. Sigh… I guess we can awaken a new element inside you. But I also know the general magic of all elements, I just specialize in Holy Light. In other words, I can also teach you Nature spells. I believe you've learned some yourself, right? I remember you used a healing spell on Aquarina," mother told me.

"Oh yeah… when she burned her hands with hot water… to be honest, I've never actually used a spell like that, but Naturia helped me conjure something like that when I needed it," I said in response.

Indeed. Some time ago, Aquarina and I were practicing new spells, with her conjuring the Boiling Water spell as she wanted to make her bullets deadlier by making the water hot. Unfortunately, this ended up backfiring as she made a mistake, with the boiling water falling on her little hands. She began to cry in pain because of that. Hearing her cry, I became somewhat desperate to try to find a way to heal her pain, so Naturia suddenly utilized my mana and helped me conjure a Nature element healing spell.

So far, I've never gone out of my comfort zone, with Agriculture being the only Nature element spell I know, but Naturia ended up helping me conjure the spell, which I called Verdant Light, a low-tier healing spell. From what I sensed back then, it could relieve pain and heal minor wounds such as burns. Though, I think it was only effective because the burns were fresh. If the burns weren't treated for longer, she would've gotten an ugly scar there.

"Naturia is a pretty useful Spirit. Using her help, you can conjure new Nature-attribute spells, so we'll delve into that, as well as learning Light Magic at the same time," mother said while nodding confidently.

Finally! My true magic and swordsmanship classes are beginning!

"Your father can teach you more Fire-attribute spells I suppose, but he's such a brute that I fear that he might end up burning you. So, I'll stay close by when you two start practicing," she added soon after.

"S-Stop calling me a brute! I am a responsible father. As if I'd let my little girl be burned!" my father replied as he crossed his arms.

"I want to trust you, so we'll see about that," mother said with a hint of doubt in her tone.

"Can you two stop bickering?" I asked, sighing once more.

The two looked at me when they heard that and apologized.

"S-Sorry, we get a bit pumped up when it comes to this," father told me.

"It's not like we hate each other, Sylphy. Don't worry…" mother reassured.

"I see…"

Well, I really hope so… I don't want any unnecessary family drama if that's possible.ραпdα `nᴏνɐ| сom

"So, when are we going to start?" I wondered.

"Well how about today? We can do classes on swordsmanship tomorrow. You'll have classes on magic today!" mother quickly said.

"What! But I wanted to teach her first!" father could not help but feel a bit wronged.

"It's already decided. You should've spoken up earlier," mother told him.

"Ugh, fine." Since it seemed like there was no way around it, father could not help but let out a sigh.

So today, after breakfast, mother brought me once more to a room in our house where she taught me about the Innate Magic Circle of magicians. This little room had a few magical tools here and there, and a window outside that let me see the growing Yggdra from afar. There was a small desk and a chair in the room for me, although it was still hard to sit down on big chairs since my little legs end up hanging by the edge. Ugh…I think my legs are cramping up…

Sigh… it ain't easy being so little…

"Very well. Let's start with the very basics, dear. You're very lucky to have me here. Your mother is said to be an amazing magical prodigy, after all! Even with the elements I seemingly had no affinity with, I was able to conjure their spells after some practice! Of course, they'll never be as strong as my specialization, plus I can only go as far as 7th Circle Magic for other elements aside from Holy Light. But I'm sure that should be enough for you, dearie," mother said.

My mother really thinks highly of herself… but oh well, you can't expect her to not be prideful. She was a Saint that saved the world from the Demon King and all that. She must have worked hard for what she got even with her talents and powers as a Saint/Hero.

"I am all ears!" I said soon after.

"Alright then. Before anything else, let's begin with the very basics of magic, and what magic truly is. My daughter, what do you think magic is? Tell me what you think of it," she said.

What a weird question… What magic is? If I were to be asked this question, I never thought I would have an answer at the ready. Now that I think about it, I can't easily piece the words to describe it despite how I've seen this power as something common. My previous life also had it, and what they said there was that magic was an expression of nature, the very essence of the elements of the world that permeates all of creation. But in this world? Well, I haven't gotten any answer from anyone. This world seems to have even more powerful magic users compared to my previous life… Well, since I don't have anything else… let's go with that, then.

"Magic is an expression of nature, the very essence of the elements of the world that permeates all of creation," I told her.

"…"

"…"

Huh? Did I say something wrong? My mother ended up staring at me in surprise.

"T-That's… an incredible answer. I didn't expect that from you. You're right. Well, partially…" mother said in response.
