500th Time Reborn, A World Only Known By Women: The Karma System

"You don't need to order food, we have cooked, and I am sure Lady Katarina already has them working for us! Come, I am glad that more people came! I was worried that it would just be the few of us! It would not be bad, but more the merrier, right?" Eliza said, and I grinned at her.

"True, and I think I know another person who might want to join us, right, Xieus?" I asked, and there was a puff of blue smoke.

"I thought that you would never ask!" Xieus smiled, wearing a white dress.

"Maybe we should invite Listenia?" I suggested, but both Eliza and Chili stopped me.

"No! She is going to have you probably all day tomorrow! Honestly, I will be surprised if we ever see you again after tomorrow! Let us girls have something with you! If she comes, none of the others will talk!" Eliza exclaimed, and I frowned at her.

"Really? She seemed crabby at first, but she is actually really nice!" I said, but O'lee spoke up.

"I am second strongest, but Tannessia is stronger than me. She is Dark Elf. Listenia is High Elf. She is pretty looking monster that wears nice clothes," O'lee said flatly.

"Really? Is she that strong?" I asked.

"Listenia is likely the strongest person other than Tallia, your Goddess. High Elves are the most gifted and smartest among all races. The only ones that can rival a normal High Elf are monsters. Titania is the Elf Goddess, and she is the only one considered an Elder Elf. No one Rivals her at anything," Breya explained, but I had to note that she had a beautiful voice that seemed to almost sing the words without even trying.

"I think that Tallia would be interested in meeting you!" Eliza said, but something about that name warned me to stay away.

Not a dire warning, but it was more like I wasn't ready to meet her yet. It was a complicated yet very specific feeling.

"Hmm, I don't think I want to meet her yet. Something tells me that she is very special, and I am not ready for that yet," I said, and Eliza shrugged as we all walked out into a flower and hedge-filled backyard.

I had gotten a few glimpses of the place from the windows, but being out here was a different experience. Everything was immaculately trimmed and weeded, making the whole place look like something out of a painted picture.

"This is your first time out here, right? Quite the lovely sight in the summer, the way it is now. In the winter, the place just collects snow. It is nice to see, though, and the help doesn't mind not having to deal with it in the colder months," Lady Katarina said as she waved us all over to a large but low table with a fire going in the center of it.

The table was surrounded by couches, and I took a seat on the far one in the center. To my surprise, Chili and Eliza sat on the couch to my left with Xieus.

The other six women looked at the places on either side of me with a wide range of emotions, making me sigh. I would have to tell them where they were to sit, or this would get awkward quickly.

"I would like to talk to you all, but you will have to take turns. O'lee, can you sit between Seraphina and Asha? And then Gwenth and Penny can come to sit here. Breya, you will have to sit with Lady Katarina for now," I instructed, and the girls all smiled, or most of them did.

"You want me to sit with this…thing?!" Seraphina complained but squealed like a stuck pig when O'lee grabbed her by the nipple, dragging her over to the open couch.

Asha went over quitely.

It was clear that some were faster learners than others, but that was fine, and that is why I asked O'lee to sit with them. I liked her bluntness and that fit body of hers, plus O'lee looked like she liked it rough, and that was always fun.

"Now that we are seated, Trina, can you go and let the kitchen know we are ready for food and drinks?" Katarina said to Trina, who had just shown up, and she nodded, leaving immediately, with a tell-tale grin.

"So, Galio, before Nyala went feral, she said you were interested in Boomsticks? Is this true?" Gwenth asked from beside me, and I nodded.

"Yes, I plan on heading to your home island as soon as possible. I think I can help with the design, but I would have to see one of the first," I explained, and Gwenth's eyes went big on her cute little face.

"Really?!" Gwenth exclaimed but then calmed down, saying, "I mean, really, that is quite interesting. Umm, I have a shop here in town, but my family doesn't have the best reputation."

"Oh? That is really good! If you are free tomorrow, in the afternoon, I would like to come by. Don't worry; no need to explain yourself or your family. I just want to make something to use. Swords and bows are good, but nothing is better than a well-tuned pair of pistols for combat, I'm pretty sure," I said, using information and opinions I have no memory of.

"Thank you. I will be waiting for you tomorrow. I, umm, will talk more about everything in private, but could you keep this meeting a secret? I trust the people here, but there are spies here in town for the other districts," Gwenth explained, and my eyes lit up with excitement.

​ "Dwarven spies?! Now that is adorable! What happens if I catch one?!" I asked, visualizing a female leprechaun cornered.

"They will kill themselves if they can, but if not, they become spies for the person that captured them. Most just end up dead because everyone hates them as much as they are used. They are despicable creatures that care about nothing but themselves!" Gwenth declared in a huff that sounded a bit personal.
