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

Chapter 44: Elemental Magic Circle

—–

Can they stop celebrating already?! Just tell me what an Elemental Circle is already!

“Please just tell me... ugh...” I told them, letting out a sigh of annoyance.

“A-Ah, right... well, an Elemental Circle happens very rarely! It’s usually something that happens when a person reaches the 5th Tier, the same tier where a magician is given the title of Elemental Magician. To make an Elemental Circle, the elements which the user has the greatest affinity with are infused into the Magic Circle, and this Magic Circle gains those properties!” mother explained.

“I see... So, what’s the difference?” I asked after that.

“Well, when you make one, your elemental magic is greatly enhanced, even allowing you to conjure spells very easily as long as it’s based on that element. However, it also makes it more difficult to learn spells from other elements as you’ve embraced your specialization.” This time, father was the one to answer my question.

“Oh... is it possible to infuse more elements into it?” I wondered.

.....

“Hmm... well, it could be possible. I believe anything could be possible for you, Sylphy! Your Triple S-Grade Talent is unique, after all. The original Hero and Saint had it and they were able to master all elements!” mother replied.

“All of the elements?!”

Mastering all elements in magic... I wonder how great that would be.

Imagining myself as an all-powerful witch controlling all the elements of the world is definitely an exciting thought.

Perhaps if I acquired this level of power, I would be able to protect everyone and have a relaxed and slow life... maybe like that one tale of a witch that had slain slimes for 300 years and became invincible. It’s a tale I found in this world’s fairytales... it’s actually pretty funny. 𝐟𝙧ℯ𝑒𝒘𝐞𝒃𝗻𝒐ѵ𝘦𝑙.com

Can I be like that glorious witch one day?! Maybe it’s also a good goal to strive for, to become the strongest and learn all elements of magic... eventually, I’ll make my Magic Circle have all the elements on it! Yes, a rainbow Magic Circle! 𝒇𝗿𝙚ℯ𝑤ℯ𝑏𝒏𝑜ѵe𝙡.c𝐨ｍ

“So that’s how it is... but I don’t feel that special. Maybe it’s actually wrong, and I don’t have that talent, Mommy,” I could not help but say.

“W-What are you even talking about, Sylphy?! You really do have the talent! Your mother’s eyes can see through everything! They never deceive me,” my mother replied while nodding confidently.

“Okay, fine... anyways, can I... continue eating breakfast now?” I asked.

“Oh!”

After that, my parents finally let go of me as I was able to resume my breakfast. For breakfast, there was delicious toast with butter and strawberry jam, as well as herbal tea with some fresh and creamy milk.

Slices of white and yellow cheese were also served on the table, alongside slices of ham, and cured salami. It was all bountiful and tasty... I fear that I might grow a bit fat from how much food I eat, but mother often told me I have a fast metabolism. Well, I guess so. Any food I consume is quickly absorbed by my body, after all.

Moving that aside, during these last three years, things have been going rather smoothly, but something appeared in my mind for some time now...

Something I wanted to do, and that was... to tame a monster!

Pretty much what I want is to have an army of beasts at my beck and call. But do I have the knack to tame creatures?

I’ve wondered that for a while. I should give it a try one of these days...

Another thing I want to do is to begin practicing the techniques and spells I learned from Teacher back when I trained in my previous life.

Sure, I may be pretty rusty at this point, but I think I could regain my fast movements, dagger techniques, and assassination techniques, as well as the ability to use magic that can open locks and other stuff.

Perhaps I could replicate these things now even better by using this world’s magic. I used to be a proficient rogue and assassin, after all. Even before the bandits, I had slain a good dozen of evildoers that deserved to have their throats slit open.

I’ve heard from mother and father that Shade is an amazing assassin and rogue, so I really want to be taught by him! Perhaps he could be even better than Teacher back then, allowing me to grow and become an even more proficient assassin.

I also want father to teach me sword techniques and all the martial arts he knows of. After all, there’s a profession called Martial Artist in this world, which is the polar opposite of Magicians.

Although my father is both a Martial Artist and a Magician, I want him to teach me all of it. We have the same element “affinity” so I really want to learn some more Fire-attribute skills and spells from him. Oh, I also want to learn how to fight with a blade from him.

At four years of age, it should be possible for me to begin fighting with weapons, right? Even if I might be a bit clumsy with it.

I want to prepare while I’m still a kid. I know my parents won’t always be there to protect me. Plus, I also want to roam the world by myself and explore its wonders. Having my parents stick with me is not really my style, so ultimately, I’ll depart from them on a journey someday, but I might come back as well. It’s not like I will be gone forever.

I haven’t really considered myself a big explorer back in the day, but now that my life has been reset and I have the opportunity to start anew, I have formed a ton of new goals in my mind.

Nevertheless, I wish there was a bigger village here with people to see and meet. It’s often quite boring in here compared to Aquarina’s home.

Talking about other things, the System has been growing stronger through these last three years. Well, to be more exact, growing stronger in the means that it has been fixing a couple more errors by absorbing energy and souls from the things I’ve slain, or I’ve seen being slain from afar.

Although I still rarely kill beasts and monsters due to the restrictions of my parents, I could say that at least a few dozens of errors in the System have been fixed.

Now that I think about it... didn’t my magic circle become bound to it?

I wonder if I can conjure “System Spells” now...

Nah, that would be way too weird and strange, right?

... right?

... Maybe I should give it a try someday.
