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



-----

Because Mist didn't mind us hearing about her mother, or maybe because she wanted us to learn about her, Mary decided to talk about her while we were having our feast. Everyone was quite interested, honestly.

"I only meet her briefly, just… less than a week, and what I know about her isn't that much…" Mary said. "But every parent I meet that lends me their child will always leave a mark on me, someone I'll never forgive, someone I promised I'll protect their children…"

"I admire how hard you've worked to protect those children, even in that town that despised demons so much." My mother said. "I'm relieved we were able to bring you out of that place… You did well, all those years."

"Thank you, Lady Faylen." Mary smiled. "But I couldn't had done it without the help of many good people there as well. Not everyone was bad… I have fond memories of good-hearted people as well. But well, let's go back to the topic. Mist's mother… Well, it was in the morning of a Friday that I meet her."

"She was covered in blood, with a spear piercing her stomach." Mary said, as Mist recoiled. "She was… most likely a survivor from the war, someone that escaped the battle that the Demon Army had brought to the Human Continent… She had you in her arms, when you were so tiny and adorable, well, you still are…"

"Mother…" Mist sighed, gripping her fists. "W-What happened afterwards?!"

"The Black Withered Forest, to the southwest of the Purple River…" Mist said silently, making sure to remember that. 

"And…" Mary was beginning to cry now, recalling those times. "In that fifth day, when I went to see how she was, and if she had improved at all, I found her smiling, hugging you while the two cuddled in the bed. You were sleeping so peacefully, that I didn't wanted to wake you up. But as the hours passed, and I heard no words from her at all, nor I saw her opening her eyes… I touched her hand, feeling it very cold. She had passed away peacefully, hugging you, and with… a smile."

"Mom…" Mist continued crying, the more she heard this, the more she cried. "Mom… Sniff… MOM!" She couldn't help it, crying loudly, as Zack hugged her, letting her get it all out over his chest.

"It's fine… let it all out." Zack cried with her, hugging her. 

Most of us remained in silence, while I started crying without realizing too, Aquarina patting my shoulders while caressing my head.

"I'm sorry… for not telling you about her earlier." Mary sighed. "I just didn't wanted to see you cry, dear…" Mary hugged Mist, as Zack gently let Mist hug Mary instead.

"It's fine…" Mist cried. "I wanted to know… it makes me both happy and sad… that she died peacefully…"

"The thing she wanted the most was for you to keep on living, moving forward without looking back." Said Mary. "So, let's do just that, alright? Slowly, one step at a time, let's keep moving to a better future."

"Nn…" Mist nodded, while still crying. "I'll do it for mom…"
