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

Chapter 997 Familiars Are Named Like That Because They're Family!

I comforted Nephilim, as I knew she needed a big hug to feel better. I told her that she was herself, and that she didn't have to let these fragmented memories make herself doubt who she was.

The new memories she had made in this new and beautiful world, should be enough to make her a new person, who she felt she was!

If she wants to also be this Emily, she could also try, or be just both together. These memories are what makes who she is, just because she remembered a past life doesn't mean she has stopped being herself.

Just like how I remember my past as Luna, but I know that I am Sylphy, and I have stopped being Luna, yet my past life personality and memories persist, they grew, changed, and become someone new.

And this is who I am now.

"I guess in that aspect… We are quite similar, master." She smiled sweetly. "We both share a past life… Although mine is much more fragmented…"

"I know." I sighed. "I'm so sorry… It was also very gruesome. There was literally not a single happy memory there…"

Suddenly, she held my hand, as Nephilim smiled sweetly, below the moonlight.

"I want to make beautiful memories with Master and my friends from now on… To make up for these awful ones I remembered." She smiled back at me, about to cry once more.

"Yeah, for sure." I nodded. "Let's make beautiful memories together, Nephi." I kissed her cheeks and her forehead and hugged her again. "You're my friend, my best friend… Like a sister, even. I will never leave you alone. We'll move forwards together and discover these secrets together too."

"I want to learn more, yes…" She nodded. "But I'm also afraid… I hope you can remain at my side even when I am… no longer myself. Because it feels that the more I remember these memories, the more my own sense of self fragments."

"T-Then we'll make sure that doesn't happen! Right everyone?" I asked all of the other Familiars.

"Yeah!" Ignatius roared bravely. "Let's make tons of memories together! The more you make, the more you will develop a sense of "self"! When it becomes strong enough, no memories can shake who you truly are, Nephilim!"Thɪs chapter is updatᴇd by ɴovᴇl(ꜰ)ir(e).nᴇt

"That's right…" Beelzebub, from all people, nodded as well. "To keep the memories of your past life doesn't mean that you stop being yourself, or that you cannot become someone new… I've changed a lot, I doubt I'll ever be the same I once was, but I think that's fine too… kind of."

"Hehehe, you're my bestie, Nephilim! Get better!" Naturia floated around her and gave her a bunch of sweet fruits, which Nephilim loved because they replenished her Mana.

"Indeed." Alice nodded, appearing at our side and sitting besides us, she was around the same size as Zephy when he was 3 years of age. "We're all together in this, Nephilim! We found you in those ruins, but that also was perhaps fate! We've freed you from that restrain, that endless jail the Gods left you in, perhaps because you were the daughter of someone they hated. We'll simply have to knock at their door one day and ask them questions!"

lightsnοvεl "For that… We must grow stronger." I said. "Nephi, never give up!"

"Never give up!" Furoh roared on his Fenrir form. "Sylphy taught me this when I was in my worst days! She's definitely right! Awoooo!"

"We've been born just recently, but all the memories we shared with Sylphy as her sword and her shield remain." Scarlet said. "All of those memories of her wielding me for many years, remain too! So I want to stick around with her, and you too, so you can make new memories, my dear companion!"

"Yeah, I guess… I joined a bit late, but yeah!" Sapphire agreed. She was a shield I got from the Fishman King Dungeon, so she didn't have as many memories as Scarlet, but she was still part of the team.

"I guess… I was created by a Demon King for the purpose of killing the Gods." Curse said. "So, that's what I'm going to help you with, leave that to me. I'll keep evolving and becoming their worst nightmare! We already almost killed one, the next one is going down for sure."

"Y-You don't have to be so rough…" Yggdra giggled nervously. "But it is as they said, dear Nephilim. We've only meet recently, haven't we? But even then, I want you to know that I'll also be by your side, because any of Sylphy's Familiars is like a sibling to me."

"We're a big family." I giggled. "So?"

"Thank you everyone…" Nephilim smiled, as she finally stopped crying. "I'll keep your words recorded within my memory bank, so I can always reproduce them when I'm feeling down. I now know that I'll never be alone…"

"Good! Now, how about we go eat? I think dinner's ready! Let's leave those memories for later." I said with a smile. "They might be a few clues about the Gods' past, most likely… But even then, so what? Not like it'll help us in anything right now! Tomorrow is another big day; we're going on a big exploration! So you better not slack off."

"I will! It excites me to know we'll explore new and uncharted territory! I-I can't wait!" Nephilim finally spoke her heart, feeling adventurous.

"Well said! Now let's go chow down some food! I'm starving!" I nodded, as we quickly walked out of my room, which I had enhanced with anti-noise barriers, so nobody overheard what we said, and rushed downstairs.

"Well, well, looks like you girls are eager to eat!" My mom said. "Dinner is almost done! Help prepare the table, Sylphy, Nephi!"

"Okay~!" We said at the same time, working together.

As dinner was finally served after a few minutes, and we all gathered to eat, laugh, and enjoy the food, Aquarina asked me how it went.

"It went alright, she's feeling better." I smiled. "I think she might begin to smile and talk what she thinks a lot from now on, so let's bear with her, haha."

"O-Oh… Well, that's good!" Aquarina smiled too. "Well done!" She coquettishly gave me a kiss in my cheek as a reward.
