Reincarnated With A Glitched System: Why Is My MP Not Running Out? Chapter 1108 Zephyrus’ Amazing Growth!

-----

"Mornin'!"

"Good morning…"

Both Zephy and Celica looked sleepy as hell, but greeted us cheerfully, nonetheless. I noticed that Zephy held a strange, dual aura. His original elents remained, but there was another half of such Aura, now glowing like burning golden flas. I had underestimated how much power he could get out of all the things mom prepared for him! Did his elental affinities strengthen thanks to the Phoenix's heart and blood?

We explained to him what happened, and after mom asked him to try, he walked towards the golden egg, touching it with his little hand to try out sothing. The heat didn't affect him either. His skin had beco mostly immune to extre heats thanks to the Phoenix blood, amazing.

"S-So I just try to make it a familiar?" Zephy wondered timidly.

"Yes, give it a go." My mom nodded.

"Okay… here goes nothing." Zephy said timidly.

FLAAASH!

A black and red thread erged out of his soul. While most people's souls were gold, white, or green, his own was of black and dark red color, constantly swirling together. It was a very unusually strong soul, with a clear and rare color to it.

The connection to the egg was swift. Surrounding his Soul Thread, there were golden flas made of his dual aura he had acquired, strengthening his abilities. The will of the young Phoenix had protested at first, disliking my brother's soul.

However, after these golden flas fused into his soul thread and entered the egg, it cald down a lot. The Phoenix chick felt at ease, perhaps because of how similar this presence was to its mother. Naturally, it gave in, and the bond was made, a familiar contract for life was created faster than we imagined.

"I-Is it done?" Zephyrus wondered, feeling sothing within him and the egg. Their auras were now connected. "Ouch, my chest hurts- Aagh!" He suddenly started gasping for air.

"Zephy?" My mom asked. "Oh, you're forming a Soul Scape. Just calm down and breathe. It should be done quickly… Sylphy never had this problem, she didn't even experienced the usual soul aching."

"Hahhh… T-The pain is gone but- Ah! Where's the egg?!" Zephy looked around, the egg was gone.

"It must have gone inside your Soul Scape, little brother." I said with a smile. "Close your eyes and focus on your own soul, or a part of it."

"O-Okay…" Zephy tried doing just that. "Hmm, i-it's weird… T-There's like… a cave, a black cave inside. And every other way out is sealed. There's weird… engravings in them."

"That must be the Soul Scape. It is an ethereal, non-corporeal world where any Familiar can co and go. You can also enter it when you diate or sleep." My mother explained. "Once the Familiar hatches from the egg, it should alter the soul scape so more. I guess this is a Phoenix of Golden Flas, so it would probably either bring a volcanic area or a desert similar to this one."

"Wow… That's aweso!" Zephy said. "And I sohow feel more relieved… Like stronger? But also freer and lightweighted."

"I guess that was your soul weighting you down, you had a very strong one since birth." My father said. "The more Familiars you get, the stronger your soul becos too. I guess this could also ans your soul feels less "heavy" as they take so of the weight themselves? Maybe."

"That's good to know, Zephy! Congrats!" I said, hugging my brother.

"Hahaha, t-thanks!" He said timidly, giggling a bit.

"Aweso!" Aquarina clapped. "Is the egg going to be okay inside? Won't it cool down?"

"Don't worry, a soul is rather comfortable for most eggs. That one should be alright." My mother nodded. "If anything, the bond between Zephy and the egg should feed it with enough Mana and heat it needed."

"O-Okay." My brother was still confused about many things.

We spent the whole morning having breakfast explaining him everything we knew about familiars and how to take care of them. How they worked, and more. He was slightly afraid of the responsibilities, but also looking forward to raising a little Phoenix chick.

After breakfast, we decided to test how he had assimilated his powers, making him release his Mana and then concentrate it into his Aura. He stood still in front of mom, dad, and , as he focused on his physique.

"Slowly, pour your Mana into your body." My father said.

"Let it flow and then release it." My mother indicated.

"You can do it Zephy!" I cheered for him.

Slowly, his Aura continued growing out of his body, larger, and larger, and larger. And just as I had noticed with my special eyes, he indeed had a dual aura. One half was like cloud of black and dark red color, swirling together constantly, it released a rather vile presence. However, the other half, the new power he acquired, flowed like a golden fla that purified it all.

It was a contrast, a big one. But both of my parents thought it was perfect. One of the reasons why Zephyrus had been a rather sickly child might have been due to his incredibly strong affinity with darkness and blood elents, often giving him nightmares too, perhaps.

However, with this golden fla aura of purification, inherited from the phoenix, he'll be able to relieve so of the pressure of his natural affinity, and if he can master both the dark and light aspect, he'll beco much stronger.

"Wooah!" However, that wasn't the only changes.

His Aura encompassed his body, suddenly covering him on so sort of robe or armor, made of golden flas aura, shaped like countless feathers. A helt in the form of the phoenix's head appeared over his head, and big wings made of golden feathers grew from his back.

It was all made from his Aura, but it was still imnsely surprising!

"He finally developed a Beast Aura!" My father celebrated.

"These are big news! Congrats, dear!" My mother hugged Zephy tightly.

"D-Did I do that?!" Zephy was still clueless and confused, but well, he was trying at least.
