Reincarnated With A Glitched System: Why Is My MP Not Running Out?-Chapter 561 Taking The First Request

-----

Once we were decided, mother quickly gave us a few papers. In there, there were written several formal requests by many townsfolk. They were five papers. These were our requests for now.

We didn't had just the day to complete them but we could do it leisurely, none of them were too urgent, although mother would prefer they could get resolved within a week or two. This is probably a test.

"Take these with you." My mother said. "Now that you guys have eaten and are ready to depart, then go on!"

"Alright, we are going out then." I said. "Let's go everyone!"

"Hahah, you're all pumped up now, aren't you? What a change…" Laughed Celeste.

"Yeah she really switched moods there. I suppose her parents cheered her up." Zack giggled a bit.

"Sylphy! Sylphy! What is our first request?" Wondered Mist, running to my side, her shiny eyes seemed excited about what we could do. Amongst all of us, she was our cutest member and probably the most innocent and good hearted of them all. She was the most adorable little lass.

"Let me see…" I began reading the papers. "Oh! Someone very close to here put on a formal request for help, so let's go check on him."

"Huh? where is he?" Asked Zack.

"Right here in my house!" I said.

"Eh?!"

I quickly led our group, as we reached our house's gates leading outside. They were always being guarded by two guards that stood on duty there for almost twelve hours a day before switching to the night duty.

Right before walking out, we were greeted by two guards wearing loosen silver armor, only covering a few parts of their bodies, they mostly wore leather armor in this town, made out of powerful beasts hunted in the forest.

Despite how elves looked so gentle and calm, they were amazing at magic. The average adult here was Tier 3 in Magic Circle, so they were able to fend for themselves against monsters and even hunt them down for food and materials.

pǎпdǎ Й?νê1,сòМ Hunting parties were common to see almost every day, as they brought large monsters they hunted to dismantle and sell for a living, much like adventurers do.

Anyways, that was not important right now.

"Oh, Young Lady Sylphy!"

"And her friends."

"Hello Elphiette, Saphaley!" I greeted them, everyone did too.

"Are you going out today too? You're always busy young lady." Elphiette wondered.

She was a beautiful and tall elf woman with short blonde hair and sharp green eyes. She was very talkative and tomboyish and was a guard for years now.

"Yeah… Are you going to buy some materials for alchemy? Young lady I've told you several times that it is dangerous to go by yourself into such a big city! Everyone recognizes that red hair as the one the Young Princess Sylphy has." Sighed Saphaley. "Oh, you've got your friends… I guess it might be fine now."

He was a tall and handsome elf man, with brown hair and green eyes. He had a large scar across his face which reached one of his eyes, which was gray-colored. We never really asked him how he got that. He's generally a worrywart and sometimes he follows me around town to protect me from "ruffians" as a bodyguard, even though I don't even need one.

"Geez Saphaley, I am not going anywhere! I am considered a young adult now, so I've got myself a job with mom." I said with a prideful smile.

"Yeah, all of us in fact." Zack added.

"We came for you!" Aquarina said.

"The request…. Said something about healing your scar?" Wondered Mist.

"Oh, I can tell, it is a really nasty one… Ah, I've got a fair bit of them myself." Said Celeste.

"E-Eeh? A request? I-I don't know what you're talking about…" Saphaley began acting like he didn't knew a thing while Elphiette looked at him with a bored expression.

"Hey, there's nothing bad with that you know?" She sighed.

"Ugh… Well, it is embarrassing to talk about this here…" He sighed. "Can we go to the cabin?"

There was a cabin where the guards went to rest and have lunch every day in our backyard.

"Sure, let's go there then."

We quickly rushed inside the cabin, there was nobody here thankfully, so we had all the place for ourselves.

"Sigh… Well, as you can see, I've had this scar for a while now… a long time, perhaps all my life." He sighed.

"How did you get it?" I asked.

"Yeah, since I know you that you've had it." Zack said. "It's kind of really differentiates you from the other elves out there."

"It really does, when I was a kid they always bullied me calling me "Scarface"…" Sighed Saphaley. He was genuinely sad.

"O-Oh…" Zack quickly fell silent, without wanting to act rude anymore.

"And well…" Sighed the elf. "I got it when I was only around… four or five years of age? Over sixty years ago." Saphaley sighed.

"Eh? You're sixty?" Asked Aquarina.

"Hm? Yeah, I am quite young for an elf." Said Saphaley.

"Sixty is… young?" Celeste felt slightly surprised.

"Anyways! Please continue." I said.

"Y-Yeah… well, I had it when I went to hunt with my father. I really wanted to go with him so I… followed him into the forest. That time a bear ended chasing me down. I miraculously managed to survive when it slashed at my face, just before father arrived and killed the bear… It was a nasty wound, I almost died of bleeding, if it wasn't for my mother dearest's healing magic." Saphaley stopped for a few seconds, touching his own face a bit, his eyes were filled with melancholy.

"…However, her healing magic couldn't heal the scar, and we never had enough money to be able to afford a proper scar removing potion with enough quality to heal it, my family has always been of humble hunters at the outskirts of the city. We barely had money to get by. I grew up with this blind eye and the ugly scar on my face since then… I've developed a complex with it, all my life always called Scarface… Now I've saved a big amount of money, I was thinking if it could be possible to heal this with alchemy or magic, or anything…" He sighed, feeling rather embarrassed of having to open up so much.
