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

Chapter 197 The Bond Of A Familiar Contract



-----

Alice looked at the last fragments of memories coming from Sylph, this was the time when she met the "teacher" she always talks about. Alice always wondered if this "Teacher" was a woman or a man, but now she was confirmed that it was a woman, although she really looked like a man.

This scarred woman, wearing black robes, and an eyepatch was the one that led Luna in her moments of utmost agony, where she felt the weakest and the most pathetic.

This woman… was the one that guided her and taught her many things. She was the one that helped her grow stronger until the moment she could rescue her mother and her sister, which was also the last moments of her life before she died at very young age…

Despite dying so young, she had lived so many experiences and gone through so much pain… Was she lucky, like Alice thought? Was she someone that always had everything in her life? Was she a spoiled girl at the end?

No… she was never anything of that…

Much like her, Luna went through pain and agony until the last moments of her life.

To think that the cheerful and adorable little half-elf girl would have such a dark past…

It made Alice realize that she was being too selfish with her thoughts. Despite having a shorter life, Luna suffered just as much as her, if not even more.contemporary romance

Unlike Alice, Luna lost her father, and her life, and everything else… She went through so much pain, perhaps it wasn't even comparable to her own.

It made her compare between the pain of two people, that of Luna and herself.

However, at the end, she sighed, thinking that it was also selfish to try to think that other people's pain was less than yours by comparing them.

Everyone had different minds, lives, and traumas, it was obvious that people would feel different levels of pain and agony depending in their situation. It is often useless to compare.

Alice suddenly found herself once more inside of Sylph's Soul Scape, as the little half-elf girl was standing there as well, looking at Alice with her beautiful green eyes.

"Alice… I… I saw a bit of your past… I-I am sorry for what happened to you…" said Sylph.

"S-Sylph…" muttered Alice.

"I will make sure to make you happy… To make up for all the suffering you went through… It must have been hard, isn't it? I will try to make you happy…" said Sylphy, as she hugged the bulb of light that was Alice.

"S-Sylphy… I also… saw a bit of your past… You… Your previous life… What you went through… all the things you lost…" cried Alice.

"Ah… Oh that… W-Well, that's a bit embarrassing…" said Sylph.

"Are you feeling okay? Even after going through so many things… How can you be so strong willed? I…" muttered Alice.

"I am fine, don't worry. That's on the past… I did what I could, and I even helped out my mother and my sister escape… I died too after that, but I want to trust that teacher and the rest are taking care of the two… I want to trust in that future, and leave the rest up to them…" said Sylph.

"I see.. W-Well, it is not like we can do much… Hahh… Sylphy, I want to hug you too…" sighed Alice.

"W-Why so lovely out of the sudden now?" asked Sylph.

"I just… I am just moved with your past, it was so sad! I am sorry…" said Alice.

"Sorry? Why?" asked Sylph.

"I… I thought that you were a spoiled kid sometimes… But now I see that… you went through a lot… You're not really childish at all, you're just incredibly strong willed… I wish I could be a quarter of what you are…" said Alice.

"Eeh?! Why are you saying such a thing! You're unique on your own things, Alice! Never wish to be somebody else, instead, just keep improving yourself so you can become the best person you can ever be." Said Sylph.

Alice was left startled by Sylph's words. They were so simple and even a bit childish, but they held a lot of truth on them. It was better to stop envying other people's lives and just try to improve oneself to become the best you can ever be.

Because it was obviously pointless to envy others, it was never going to get anywhere, and it would only make you feel more terrible at the end…

"Sylphy you always say some things that are always on point… Okay… Ah, for some reason… I feel more solid? So weird, and the pain… it is gone? Almost gone… I still feel a bit of aching… But… I don't feel as exhausted as before either. Is this being a Familiar all's about?" wondered Alice.

"I think so, you can share your pain and exhaustion with me, it is a trait of a familiar and their master… We can share the burdens together… Don't worry, my body is immortal anyways." Said Sylphy with a bright smile.

"S-Sylphy…" sighed Alice.

"And if I ever get torn to shreds, mom can always regenerate me back." Said Sylphy while nodding and smiling pridefully of her mother's healing powers.

"S-Sylphy! That's a bit too far, don't be torn to shreds! That was already so horrifying!" said Alice.

"Okay, I was joking! Hahaha…" giggled Sylph.

The two looked at one another as Sylph hugged the light bulb-shaped Alice and suddenly kissed her.

"I will one day bring you out, somehow, and we'll explore the world together." Said Sylph.

"Geez… Still with that idea? Okay… Fine…" said Alice.

"And then, we'll have a lot of fun together and I will show you Aquarina, Zack, and my family, and Aquarina's family too, and Nin! I am sure everyone will like you, just like Ignatius and Naturia, and Furoh." Said Sylph.

"Sure… Sure… You win, I will try to find a way as well, I cannot let you have all the burden after all…" said Alice.

"That sounds great! We'll work together on it." said Sylph.

"Yeah… We'll do." Said Alice.
