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

-----

"Judging by the amount of treasure you had accumulated; I can tell you've explored a lot of these areas and that you've most likely gotten most out of each path…" My mother said. "But I am rather happy to learn that the middle path is clear! But before going there, how about we quickly check the other two, just in case? We got all day after all."

"Hmm, sure?" I shrugged. "What about you guys?"

"I don't mind." Aquarina said.

"I think it's ok!" Mist nodded.

"I can feel spirits to the three paths." Lara said. "The left and right paths have the least spirits; some are seemed to be slowly dying… I would like to go help them first! So yes, let's go!"

"I don't care either way, let's do whatever you girls want." Celeste shrugged, her bat playing around over her head.

"Alright then! Let's go first to the left path and then the right path. I have some feelings we'll find some new clues." My mother said.

"Wait, mom, what about the altar over here?" I asked her, pointing at the golden altar erecting from the floor.

"I already checked it, this altar seems… Completely empty? It is just a big chunk of metal." My mom said, walking back to it. "But there's something here."

Her fingers touched the golden altar. It didn't react or anything, but she noticed a small section, like something that should fit in there like a puzzle piece.

"Alright, I think we should look for that. Did the slimes ever found something like… A silver tablet that could fit inside of the altar?" My mother asked.

"No, they remember their treasures well, nobody has gotten silver tables." Pyuku said. "But there might be another reason, silver doesn't shine as much as the other shiny things. So I guess they probably left them behind."

"I-I guess that makes some sense." I laughed.

"Well, let's look for that silver table or whatever! I'm getting bored, let's get moving." Said Aquarina, eager to explore and maybe find a monster or two along the way.

We started our journey, entering the left path. What greeted us was a series of small rooms, each one full of all sorts of traditional and old traps. Most of the high-tech ones had no more energy to function after all. But my mother had said that when they are, laser beams that can blast everything on their path, giant spinning saws, and many other deadly weapons are constantly flung at you.

Anyways, aside from evading the simplest of traps such as sinkholes, poisoned arrows, and the occasional area where a swarm of desert bug monsters would appear and try to eat you alive, we made up to the end of the first path without much to say. There was no door leading anywhere, and every treasure chest we found was empty by now.

However, Lara found a lot of dying spirits, victims of the slightly greedy slimes taking away every "shiny", including the spirit crystals growing here…

"Don't worry, come with me." Lara gently carried every tiny spirit she found with her, even though we couldn't see them completely, she was shining with hundreds of tiny lights over her body. The more time they spent stuck to her, the healthier and brighter the lights seemed to become.

"She's sure the saint of spirits." Celeste pointed out. "To be so worried about every single little spirit…"

"I guess that's how our Lara is." I giggled. "Oh, mom did you find something?"

"Yes, look over here." Mom had been looking at the end of the path, until she found something. "Here."

She gently pressed a brick in the golden walls, which slowly sank almost a meter. Slowly, the walls trembled, dust coming off the cracks opening after eons since the pyramid landed in here. The sound of grinding gears echoed behind the walls slowly opening, collapsing a sea of sand and dust and then greeting us with a sight to behold.

It was a secret room, something not even the slimes found before. Pyuku, Emerald, and Sunshine were left speechless as they glanced the scene. It was a slightly large room; the ceiling was around twenty meters above our heads. But the thing that was most surprising were the shiny things inside.

Countless colorful spirit crystals, growths of orichalcum, small relics, and a silver plate in the middle of all… As easy as that!

"T-There was something like this here?!" Pyuku panicked.

"Kyuuuh?!"

"Guboo!"

Emerald and Sunshine were just as shocked once they saw the scene in front of them. As Hoarding Slimes, they already wanted to hoard some treasures for themselves.

However, my mother's presence quickly made them step back, she only glanced at them once. She was fine with them keeping anything they found beforehand but now… things were different.

"For the sake of research, we will keep everything here. I hope you don't mind." She smiled gently.

"G-Guu…"

"Kyuuh…"

They could only resign themselves, the greedy slimes were no match for my mother's true greed!

"I can't believe there was such a treasure right below our noses!" Mist said. "T-This is so much… so many things! But can we even sell these materials or anything? Ah, I bet no, this is all of your mom after all."

"There are some spirit crystals here! …But they seem to have been sealed here for a while, no spirits remain." Lara sighed. "Well, this shiny pile of treasure is still quite tentative, all things considered.

"H-Holy shit…" Celeste could only say that.

"S-Sylphy, isn't your mom being a bit greedy?" Aquarina whispered to me, feeling a bit worried.

"Nah, mom's not like that." I smiled. "Right mom?"

"Of course, you can take as many treasures as you want." My mother nodded. "As long as it is Sylphy, Aquarina, and the girls. I'll be taking this… Oh, and this. Looks like aside from the valuable materials. There was not only a silver plate but… Look! An Ancient Relic! It is quite small and weak but it is functional."

Mom showed us a golden ring, with a fiery hawk sign on top of it. It emanated an aura of fire and light, a golden flame aura.
