Reincarnated As The Hero’s Daughter: Wait, Why Is My MP Not Running Out?

-----

"Mist is there? Why is she all the way there? Well, at least she's alive but… Who are these people? I haven't heard about nomads setting down their tents… Ugh, I hope she didn't got in any trouble! If these people have her there because of her own fault, I'll have to apologize to them." Sighed Celeste. "At least tribe people is often and surprisingly more open-minded than the assholes of this place. I've met a few."

Celeste spoke with the little phantom guiding her, as Shade decided to greet her by running faster than her and waiting for her near Mist's Tent.

"Hahh… I am here… Huh? Is everyone asleep? Maybe I should stealthy retriever her back and get out of here…" Said Celeste, quickly finding a tall pale-white man with glowing aquamarine eyes and short white hair, his entire body was tightly wrapped in black clothes, and he covered his mouth as well.

"Hello, did you need something, little girl?" He wondered.

"AH…! W-Wha… I didn't even see you there…" Celeste fell to her butt over the grass. Shade was surprised to see her acting like a child after she had been such a bloodthirsty demon girl against those thugs.

"Y-You've seen a little demon girl with white skin and hair? She has a weird mouth that opens in a cross shape!" Said Celeste. "Please, forgive her if she did something bad! She's a little adventurer and likes to go around everywhere. She even talks with strangers sometimes!"

"Hahah, don't worry. She's sleeping right now. Most of my family is sleeping as well. How about you stay the night here with her? You seem dead tired." Said Shade.

"Huh? I… I would prefer to just retrieve her back… But wait, you saved her?!" Asked Celeste.

"Yes, not me, a friend. They found her in the streets, all beaten down and almost dead…" Sighed Shade. "Her bones were broken, and both of her eyes were bloodied, she had lost her vision and was in the brink of death."

"W-Wha…"

Celeste's eyes sank, she looked back at Shade, who emanated a charming yet mysterious presence.

"Did you…?"

"We healed her. We got a competent healer in our clan, so don't worry. We are not monsters that would leave a little girl to her death."

"Even… if she was a demon?"

"That's not really something that would stop us."

"Mist…"

Celeste sighed in relief.

"W-What's your name anyways? What's your tribe? I had not seen you guys here before! My name is Celeste, I am a witch of this town, I protect the orphanage where Mist and other children are living!" Said Celeste happily, immediately trusting Shade quite quickly… It surprised him a bit, perhaps she still had some childishness to her.

"We are the Amazon Tribe, we are in a journey towards the Continent of Elves, it is long and arduous, so we take a break to resupply our things in each town we come across." Said Shade. "Come, let me show you Mist."

"Amazons… I have only heard of you guys. I remember there was a Hero that was an Amazon woman, right?" Asked the girl with an innocent and childish smile.

"Hahah… Yeah." Said Shade, deciding to keep Nepheline's identity a secret.

Celeste followed the man inside of the tent, as Celeste found Mist leisurely sleeping with her mouth wide open. There was a green-colored magic barrier around her constantly healing her wounds so there wouldn't be any bad sequelae in her body after recovery.

"Mist… Sigh…" Celeste sighed, slightly happy to see Mist being alright. "I am glad she's okay."

"You calmed quite quickly. I am Shade by the way. Everyone is sleeping right now, the elf that healed her said this barrier would allow her to fully heal well, so I wouldn't recommend you grabbing her away right now. How about you stay in here at her side? I can bring you a small bed." Said Shade.

"You would do such a thing?" Asked Celeste.

"Yes, there's no problem. I am simply trying to be friendly. Is it weird? I lack a lot of… experiences with interaction with people. I've always been on my own through my life. Just these last years that I've interacted a lot, but I still can't beat innate talkers like a good friend of me." Sighed Shade.

"N-No, it is alright, thank you." Said Celeste. "I had just forgotten that there's good people out there."

"Hah, I wouldn't blame you for that." Sighed Shade.

At the end, Celeste slept at the side of Mist while watching over her. She almost didn't slept through the entire night because she was worried about Mist, and was constantly thinking about the bastards that did this to her and who could had been…

"They targeted me right after her… Who is the bastard behind this?" She wondered. "I am going to look for them later… For now, I have to watch over her…"

(Sylphy's POV)

The time to wake up came and I quickly jumped off bed. And there she was, Aquarina, the little rascal, had infiltered my bed at night like always. I looked at her for a bit and caressed her long hair. She was really cute today.

I gave her a kiss in her cheek which quickly woke her up.

"Fweh?" Aquarina suddenly looked around in surprise. "S-Sylphy… Goo' mornin'…" She said while being half-asleep.

"Good morning, Aquarina." I said, petting her head. "You once more came to sleep at my side!"

"Hehehe…" Aquarina didn't even apologized this time, only giggling maliciously.

"At this point we should share the same room, you're really irredeemable!" I said.

"I-It's just… more comfortable when I sleep at the side of somebody… I feel less afraid." She said.

"Afraid?" I wondered.

"S-Since the time that we were captured inside that space back then… That I've had bad dreams, so I need to sleep with someone or… I can't sleep well." She sighed.

"Eh? Y-You never told me that…" I sighed. Now it really made a bit more of sense… I suppose ending with traumas after such a thing is normal, it was a terrible experience.

I wish… I could had done better back then.
