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

142 My Elven Family

—–

I often wonder about my elven family... I know that there’s my grandpa from my father side, who’s named... Hunter? Or something along those lines. But I still don’t know the name of my grandma. Also, my father sometimes spoke about his older brother, who’s a magic swordsman.

But it appears that my mother doesn’t like his family very much, saying that her father was a barbarian man that forced his son to the bone while training when he was a child. She also said he was often overly abusive. Then again, my father still respects his father, most likely because he taught him everything he knows, including survival.

And then there’s his mother... the only thing I know about her was that he once said she was a huntress and was good at hunting animals to cook. Then, there was his older brother whom he said was good at magic from the beginning unlike him, so he merged his magic and sword techniques from a young age and became a very talented magic swordsman.

But names? No? Can’t I know the names of my family at the very least?

I know my father’s full name is Allan Bravo Firebrand, and mother’s full name is Faylen Naturia Yggdra, so I guess their families are the Bravo family of mercenaries, and the Naturia family of elven royalty of... probably a kingdom of the same name?

I ended up naming my Nature attribute spirit Naturia due to that surname, the same way I called my tree Yggdra.

Wondering about these things really makes me think sometimes... what’s the deal with my family? My mother seems to have big drama with her family, and she seems to not want me to go there at the moment for some reason.

Meanwhile, my father had completely cut off any communication with his own family long ago. Plus, he seems to be happy while not knowing anything about them...

.....

I fear the possibility that my father’s family might be dead... and he’s only trying to get over it by casually talking about them from time to time, but without actually explicitly tell me that they’re gone...

Maybe with mother’s case, it could be some stupid royalty drama I’ve heard sometimes about, where the siblings hate each other because they all want the throne or something. That always happens in these types of settings, after all.

But it cannot be THAT simple, right?

No way. There must be something else to it than just that... and I think I’ve heard that my father’s father might be alive, so I shouldn’t assume everyone’s dead just because my father doesn’t talk about them to me.

And about my mother’s family... maybe she’s just introverted and doesn’t like them because they’re very extroverted unlike her? Well, that’s a positive way to put it, but I have no idea. It could probably be what I think, or be way more complex than just that.

“Mommy, when are you going to tell me more about your family? I want to learn more about my aunties, uncles, and grandparents... why don’t you tell me anything about them?” I asked.

I decided to be rather blunt in here, as there was no way I was going to get any answers because my mother didn’t even seem to be willing to talk to me about them in detail...

“W-Well, it would be a bit too complicated to tell you. My family is quite big... and there are too many names for you to remember right now. Telling you each person and each name would be taxing to your mind, right? We’ll be heading there in a few more years from now... I’ve already decided... so you’ll be able to meet them by then, dear,” she replied.

“But I want to know more about them right now!” I urged.

“Erm... well, alright. But don’t blame me if I reprimand you when you forgot their names, alright?” she said with a sigh.

“Sure! Tell me!” I nodded without hesitation.

I couldn’t hide my excitement, I wanted to know about my family after all.

“Well, my father is... well, he used to be the King of the Naturia Kingdom within the Atlanta Continent. He’s a stoic old elf, with great power over magic... he was given the title of High Elven Sage King, and he led our country for centuries until he finally retired... My father’s name is Thassarion Naturia Treebark... my father’s... well... he’s a man that is very reserved,” my mother started to explain.

“Really?” I asked.

“Indeed... well... he wasn’t the best father... your father is like a thousand times better,” mother said in response, laughing it off.

“Oh... d-did you have a hard time?” I asked.

“Hmm? Me? Well, that’s long back in the past. I’ve lived for over 600 years now, so I don’t really care that much... but he was always... sigh... an insensitive man...” mother replied, sighing soon after.

“Insensitive?” I asked.

“Well, that’s that... don’t worry about it for now... and then there’s my mom! She’s... quite the woman. Ahem... well, she used to be the former Queen of the Naturia Kingdom... she didn’t have any particular talent other than great healing magic, and well, the ability to fly naturally with her fairy-like wings. She used to belong to the caste of elves known as Faeries, who grow butterfly-like wings when they reach maturity and gain the ability to fly freely... They often have the power to communicate with animals even more easily than normal Light Elves,” mother continued.

“Wow! That’s cool! So, she was a Fairy!” I said with awe. ????????????????ℯ????d. ????????????

“You could say that! Though, I don’t know if you’ll ever grow wings... only two of my siblings inherited them, so they’re rare in the bloodline. My mother’s name is Arlayna Yggdra Flowerbud... she’s a woman with quite the eccentric personality,” mother said.

“Eccentric?” I asked.

“Y-Yeah... I don’t know how to say it otherwise, but she really is quite weird... she was a careless mother, and... although she was always gentle and nice, it always felt like her head was always elsewhere, not even being considerate to others despite her gentle nature...” mother clarified, letting out a sigh.

Ahh... I can see why she doesn’t like to talk about her family. She had terrible parents...
