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

135 My Mother Is Pregnant?!

—–

My mother’s stomach... it has a little heart beating inside it?

How? What does this mean?

What’s inside her?

On second thought, why am I even wondering what it could be? Aren’t I a woman as well? It’s pretty obvious that it’s a baby.

Indeed, a baby!

My mother is pregnant again!

She’s going to have... a second child.

A little sibling for me?!

.....

Oooooh!

An inexplicable happiness suddenly embraced my very being.

Thinking about having a little sister or a little brother really made me happy for some reason.

After all, in my previous life, I also had a little sister... she was my world, and the one I strived the hardest to one day rescue.

When I finally managed to rescue her, I felt happy and fulfilled, and thought I was ready to do absolutely anything for her and keep her safe.

One of such things was to fight to the end to buy time for the slaves we rescued to run away from the camp.

I remember having slain so many bandits back then... I never thought I would have mercilessly taken so many lives in a single night. But because of my resolve, I didn’t falter for a single second.

And when I was at the brink of death... I decided to go off with a great show and ended up detonating the magic bomb that our teacher had put on our bodies in emergencies where we were sure to be caught and killed.

After all, that item wasn’t intended for us to simply kill ourselves whenever we saw it fit, it was meant to be our last resort... teacher used to call it “Go out with a bang! Show these bastards that you’re not even afraid of death”, or something... teacher was always a bit crazy, but I learned a lot from teacher...

In the end, it helped me take out all the bandits back then with my life, which was already about to dissipate as I had taken several grievous wounds.

Now that I think about it, I think I went a bit off-topic by recalling my past, but when I remember my sister from my previous life, I remember why I sacrificed my life... I hope, I really hope she’s okay now... I hope she and mom found someplace to live peacefully...

If teacher was a good person, I know that they would be welcomed in the hideout we had... maybe until they can find somewhere safer to stay.

At least... I hope he could do that because I gave up my life. It’s the least you could do, teacher...

In any case, I should get back to the present.

I’m no longer from that world, after all... even if it makes me sad... even after five years of being here, I still get quite sorrowful sometimes.

But I have people that loves me here, who I love as well...

So, mom is going to have another kid...

Should I tell her? Does she know? She should know, right? There’s no way a person as strong as my mother could not know that they’re pregnant... right?

I have begun to wonder just how perceptive my mother could be, and more than once she’s often very distracted. Perhaps I was able to detect it faster than her due to my greater senses thanks to Heavenly Sight...

She doesn’t have such power, after all. It’s something only I have! Now... wait, I wonder if I can use the Appraising function in Heavenly Sight and see info about the baby?

Let’s see...

I concentrated my eyes into mother’s belly.

Aside from basic info about her, I continued to browse through until something popped up inside of my head...

[Fetus]

Oh, there!

It wasn’t my imagination; mother really IS pregnant...

Wow... alright, can I see any info from the fetus itself? Can the Appraising power give me that info, or was that a bit too much?

...

[Fetus]

A developing child. It had recently grown a beating heart and tiny eyes. The blood of heroes rushes through its vessels. It possesses both elven and human lineage.

Estimated age: 1 week.

Estimated magic affinity: Darkness, Shadow, Blood, Death.

Estimated special abilities: ???, ???, ???, ??? ????????????????????????d. c????m

Something has been detected but cannot be discerned completely, its soul is very strong.

...

The info I got was... interesting. So, it’s a week old, and just has two tiny eyes... they probably can’t see anything.

Aside from that... it has a series of eerie-sounding affinities for magic... but who am I to judge a person based on their magic affinity? They sound strong, so I hope my little sibling can grow strong as well.

But then there are some weird things... special abilities? I didn’t know people were just born with them... but I guess it does seem fair. It’s a magic world and all that. I suppose I could call Aquarina’s ability to discern any living being’s intentions as a special ability.

I don’t know if Zack has any. Perhaps being overly strong for his age? Although that might be just his race trait. And then there’s the thing about my little sibling having four special abilities hidden in “???”.

Why are they hidden? What are you hiding from me, little sibling?

Hmmm...

On top of that, it said that there are many new things, but cannot be discerned aside from the fact that it has a very strong soul.

Well, I guess that’s good. I’m glad it has a very strong soul.

Alice, can’t I see anything else?

“Ah... no, I think that’s the extent of your Heavenly Sight, Sylph... even if the System wasn’t glitched, it wouldn’t be able to level up, so this is just the maximum capacity,” replied Alice. She was always with me, and most of the time we have our senses connected. So, she often saw what I saw, and can even hear a few of my thoughts if I allow her.

Oh well... do you think I should tell my mother about this?

“I would say yes, you should. The sooner she knows, the better she can prepare...” she said.

Alright then...
