Reincarnated With A Glitched System: Why Is My MP Not Running Out?
Chapter 509 Forced Into Going To The Academy-----
After waking up I went to take a quick bath, and Aquarina decided to accompany me. We washed each other's long hair, which we had to take good care of, and then we were ready to go on adventuring- or well, just go ask my father the big question.
When we reached the tent where everyone was eating, we found my father putting big chunks of meat over a table, while my mother was cooking with Zephy over a cradle being taken care by one of her spirits, Valkyrie, who resembled a beautiful blonde woman.
Now that I was a big sister, I guess I've gotta also help my little brother in anything he needs. He's also such a cute, red haired little brat.
"Zephyyy!" I quickly reached his cradle as he looked at me with surprise.
"Baaah! Abaaahh!" Zephy reacted, but wasn't exactly crying, pointing a little finger at me.
"Hello! I am your big sis! My name is Sylphy!" I said with a smile.
"Bahh…" Zephy suddenly stopped paying attention to me, distracted by a flock of ducks flying atop the sky.
"Looks like ducks are emigrating, season's changing." My father quickly appeared behind me. Is it my idea or is he growing a beard below his chin? It looks very thin right now though. It might take him a while to grow it, his body is quite hairless for being his age.
"Good morning dad…" I said.

"Yeah I am alright now!" I said. "In fact… I would die to go into a dungeon!"
"Dungeon? Well there's one in the port…" My father said.
"Allan!" My mother quickly reprimanded my father.
"Ah! B-But you can't go to any dungeon. Your mother said you should rest for at least half a year after what happened." My father said.
"EEEEH?!"
"Yeah, no going to dungeons until we get to our new home Sylphy. And after we get there you'll be taught more things. At the age of 10 you'll be going to the Magic Academy." Said my mother.
"Ah… I remember that… I guess." I sighed. "I remember being excited about this back then, but can't I skip it? What can they even teach me there that I cannot learn myself?"
"Sylphy there are teachers there that are double, triple, or even four times my own age. Do you think they're somehow not experienced in anything? I was taught by these people and became as knowledgeable thanks to them. I cannot simply be your teacher forever. The academy has well structured classes and amazing teachers that can teach you not only about magic, but the world's history, mathematics, languages, and more. You'll be going to one of the best Academies in the world too." My mother said confidently, she didn't budge.
"Uugh… Do I even need to? I just want to learn the basics and I'm good to go." I said.
"The basics won't do. Also what do you want to dedicate yourself in life Sylphy? There are many careers you could take, a wandering monster hunter is not what I want my daughter, with such immense talent, to become." Said my mother. "It would be wasting your talent and amazing capabilities to just end up as some backwater adventurer…"
"Hey! There's nothing wrong with that!" I said angrily.
"No, there's a lot wrong with it!" My mother reluctantly said. "I've already decided. You and your brother will become academically successful nobles. As the descendants of the Evergreen Kingdom's royalty, you have to be a bit more than just an adventurer, Sylphy."
My mother was breaking my heart. I honestly had no interests in dealing with nobility nor even become a respected princess at all, I just wanted to go there just because it would be safe, meet my family and that's it. I'm not at all into any of the responsibilities of being a royal family member.
"Geh…"
However, I was just almost nine, I can't go against the words of my mother. It would only lead to pointless discussions and more conflict, which I really don't want right now.
"It'll be fun, come on." My father said. "You don't have to be so pessimistic about everything. You can even bring your friends there, right?"
"Yeah I was about to tell you we could get Zack and Aquarina in there easily… And if they behave, even Mist or… Celeste. Celica is too young." Said my mother.
"Eh?! Really?" I asked.
"Wait, what? Me?" Aquarina asked. "I'm not a noble, right?"
"Well your father is a Noble." Said my father to Aquarina.
"Papa's a noble?!" Asked Aquarina.

"R-Right, never mind…" My father quickly decided to not talk more about that.
"Fallen house? What's that?" Aquarina wondered.
"Nothing, nothing." My mother said. "How about we eat something and talk more about the Academy?"
My mother quickly brought some delicious breakfast. Fruit salad with whipped cream, milk, cheese, curated ham, freshly baked bread, butter, and fruit jam. She also prepared some eggs with large sticks of greasy meat from wild boar monsters named bacon.
"Yummy!" Aquarina quickly began devouring the eggs, pouring them over the freshly baked bread, her face quickly getting all covered with the oil the eggs were fried into.
"Aquarina eat more slowly." My mother told to her adoptive daughter while Aquarina's parents were still scouting the Port City.
I guess I can leave the concerns about the Academy thing for later. As of now, I wanted to ask my father about the sword.
"Dad, my sword… well, it broke from that battle." I said. "So could it be possible to… repair it?"
"Your sword?" He asked. "Ah, yeah, we recovered the bits of it. So you want it repaired… I guess it is doable. Even if your mother is reprimanding you right now, you still kind of deserve a big reward for everything you did."
"Nice! Thanks!" I said happily. "Can you use true demon materials for repairing it?"
"True Demon?!"
