500th Time Reborn, A World Only Known By Women: The Karma System
Chapter 556 The Burden Of A Gift: Risking It All To Make A Difference"Those are great ideas! Let's get started on making these gifts as special as possible," Elfinia said with a smile before conjuring up some materials for us to use. We all got to work, using our magic to make the items even better than before. As we worked, I felt myself getting excited at the prospect of giving this gift to Wendria. After a few hours of hard work, we finally finished creating something truly magical - and I knew that Wendria was going to love them.
Yet, I was concerned about meeting this woman. Thinking about what I was taking with me as gifts, it felt like I was going into battle with specially upgraded weapons to fight a great foe, but maybe I was. This woman sounded like a bit of a terror for other women, and I was sure that she always got what she wanted. Maybe I could take advantage of this and really put her in her place.
If she was used to being the one that was in control, I was just going to have to take that away from her. I was sent to battle, ready with my arsenal of gifts and a plan in mind. No matter what happened, I was not going home until Wendria was a good little girl for this big kitty.
"So, are we going to go to the amusement park, or what?" Draconia asked after we finally got everything packaged up and ready.
"What? You think we have time for that right now?" Orchalla asked with a laugh, and Draconia scowled.
"Do you think that I care if we have time? Tell the uptight Elves to wait! I was promised, and Galio will not be denied!" Draconia stated, her voice full of determination.
"Well, I think that it is probably fine to take a break, and there is no reason why we can't visit the Elders in the evening. Considering the gifts, this might be the best route anyways. Going in the morning would have been better if we were bringing standard and simple gifts. In this case, the women are not going to want to interrupt their day, so the evening will allow them to enjoy any use of the gifts rather than them being distracted all day. I am sure you have noticed that Listenia likes things to happen a certain way, and the rest of the Elven women are no exceptions," Elfinia said, her voice full of wisdom.
"This sounds like a great plan. Let's do it," I said, standing up along with everyone else.
"I think that I am going to sit this one out," Titania said as she stood from her chair beside me and then leaned over to give me a kiss. "I enjoyed our time together, and I will wait till you are back from the Underworld before I bother you for another date. Just remember that it is your turn to take me on a date next time, but I would also like to show you more of my kingdom."
"I would like that as well," I said and then looked at the others. "Who all wants to come with Draconia and me?"
To my surprise, only six hands went up; Nya, Luck, Karma, Destiny, Murphy, and Fate, of all people. She surprised me the most, but then that might be because of Karma. Tallia had taken her for a while, so there might be more to it than that, but it was something that time would only tell without asking her directly.
"I am going to take mother with me, but after you are done, you can return Fate to me. I would still like some time with her," Tallia said, opening a portal and then giving me a kiss, but she only pulled away slightly. "Try not to react if Fate acts out. Like the others, they don't know that they were all your most trusted council at one point, and Fate never liked you from the start. She only came to your side after she learned of the things that Kadeon had been doing and covering up. I haven't brought it up, so I don't think that you should either. I think in time, everyone will regain those memories, so they will learn then."
I sighed as Tallia pulled back and nodded, thinking about Fate. She had been one of Kadeon's biggest supporters, even after I had taken over, but when Nemoria showed her the hidden videos from the disgusting testing, that changed. Kadeon had been experimenting on his own people to find better methods of controlling them, and he had been getting close to a drug that would be given to everyone from birth. I had destroyed everything, but Nemoria kept the videos for cases like Fate, where they had been brainwashed into believing what Kadeon was doing was for their own good.
"Got it," I said, and she smiled, pulling back.
pAn,Da n<0,>v,e1 "Good. It is a big job to know everything, yes?" Tallia asked me, and I rolled my eyes, but I knew what she meant.
"I want to talk more about that when we get the chance, okay? You obviously have known a lot for much longer than me," I said to her, and she nodded as Nemoria came to me.
She pressed her forehead into mine and closed her eyes as she rested her hands on my biceps, and arms on mine. I closed my eyes, and the two of us we standing in a side room from the throne room like we always did after I addressed the assembly. I could almost smell the crisp air of the morning and remember how the slight breeze that would draft in was.
"I miss Prime and the simple life that you made for us there. After so long of being under Kadeon's control, you broke us free, but it almost feels like we are starting all over again," Nemoria said softly, and she hugged me, sliding her head to my shoulder.
