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

Chapter 894 Gathering Resources

-----

The next morning, we woke up early with my friends and after a quick breakfast, we immediately decided to set off into the Emerald Forest, this time we decided to just walk there to admire the beautiful grasslands on the way.

Our parents were fine with it, after having already made the area quite secure once we conquered the Dungeon back then, the path there was peaceful and rather relaxing.

The grasslands were beautiful and much larger than those of my own Dungeon, it makes me feel slightly dumb by thinking my dungeon was already amazing… nothing beats the beautiful world out there.

There was a huge flock of Grassland Bisons, strong bovine beasts that have huge horns and are quick-tempered, but we just ignored them, as they were mostly Tier 1 to Tier 2, and we had plenty of meat.

We also found a few Grassland Wild Boars, and some Grassland Wyverns, green-scaled wyverns of Tier 3 that sometimes fly around and catch prey from here, they ignored us, as they have learned to not attack people instinctively.

They sometimes appear near the city to eat scraps of what we throw away or want to turn into compost. Sometimes, a few young ones would try to catch our cattle, but would be quickly hunted down, so old ones have learned to not mess with people.

"So relaxing~ Even the wyverns are peaceful here." Celeste laughed. "I feel like I just want to live here forever."

"Me too, it's such a paradise compared to the Wild Lands…" Lara smiled with a sigh. "Right, Luck?"

"Y-Yeah, I'm very thankful to everyone for allowing us to live in Agartha… You have our eternal gratitude, especially you Sylphy, without your help, none of this would had been possible." Luck smiled.

lightsnοvεl "Eh? Hahaha! Come on, you're going to make me blush, Luck." I giggled. "I just did what I had to do. Not only because you were chosen heroes, but because I wanted to help those in need. If I have the strength to do it, why the hell wouldn't I?"

"You said it so naturally, but out there, there isn't that many people with as much empathy as you do." Celeste sighed. "I also want to thank you, again, for the trillionth time."

"Aw, come on now…" I covered my face, feeling embarrassed. 

"Hehehe, Sylphy, you're always so tomboyish, but you've got a cute side in you too!" Lara giggled, giving me a head pat. And then gently caressing my long ears. "Your long ears are so cute! Let me touch them a bit too!"

"Uwaah?! Lara, t-that's…!" 

Elven ears were very sensitive, so they were very weak to tickles…

"Hahaha! S-Stop it!"

"Fufufuf, cute little ears~!"

"…"

Aquarina was glancing at Lara with bright red eyes, until Lara felt a shiver down her spine and stopped doing that…

"Aquarina calm down a bit…" I sighed.

"Huh? What? I haven't said anything nor done anything…" She said, pretending to not have given the stare of death to poor little Lara.

"I was just playing, Aquarina! I want to touch your ears too, can I?" Lara suddenly assaulted Aquarina, tickling her cute brown ears.

Aquarina instantly grew as red as a tomato, laughing at the tickles. Amazing, Lara has the power to ignore her Death Stare and just treat her like a puppy!

Maybe all that time with Luck had made her quite mentally resilient, I have a lot to learn from her, for sure…

Anyways, we continued our journey, and we eventually arrived at our first stop, the Emerald Forest. The beautiful greenery, plentiful of trees, and many animals and plants Lara had never seen before made her fascinated.

Luck was also quite excited, but not as much as Lara. She had quite the knack for Alchemy I think, her Magic Power is really high, so I might as well teach her about it later.

She seems like an ideal apothecary, and I think her Spirits could help her develop her Alchemy to completely unique ways and forms.

"Wow, so many colorful trees! Look, Luck! Look! I've never seen a tree made of jewels before!" Lara was fascinated. "The Spirits are all so happy too! They keep popping up from here."

"It is quite something, I guess a place like this is to be expected around an elven city." Luck laughed. "Maybe we should bring the rest of the kids here…"

"I wouldn't recommend it, the place's quite dangerous, filled with high tier monsters. Only experienced hunters come." Aquarina explained. "And well, us too…"

"O-Oh…" Luck was quickly taken aback.

"Well, for now, let's get some stuff done! We've got a lot of materials to take from here." I smiled

We quickly decided to gather some of the materials in here, specifically the trees! There was a variety of Magical Trees in this forest which have been well preserved thank to the anti-deforestation policies of Elves.

Unlike Humans, Elves usually have easy access to Nature Magic, which can help them grow trees quickly for wood if they ever need it, so they usually never chop down their forests and leave them grow as much as they want, living alongside nature.

There are policies that protect forests and trees from being overly abused out of their resources, and if we are not careful we could even face a punishment for taking too many resources.

But we were careful, without even cutting down whole trees, but taking a few of their branches each. It was more than enough for now.
