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

Chapter 655 The Godly Father Takes a Break

The aroma of brewed coffee filled the lavish dining hall of Northwall. In the head seat of the exquisitely carved table sat Galio, his deep-set eyes marking wisdom beyond his youthful appearance. The table was an arena of heated discussion. Excitement filled the air and the Goddesses buzzed with anticipation for the imminent game of cosmic fierceness, The Goddess Games. This tournament was set to decide on the new generation of goddesses who would govern over the twelve major islands of the world, a domain known as the Mortal Realm of the Goddesses.

As the discussions about the Goddess games and the remodel plans of Northwall progressed, Galio inked his final notes on the blueprint of the city. The immense wall, which shielded Northwall, was to be deconstructed to expand the city to four times its current size. The new layout proposed impressive changes such as a train station connecting various towns across the human continent, including Torrain and Bramma.

Around the table sat goddesses of various races and traits, all sharing one commonality: All close women to Galio, love interests, wives, and wives-to-be. Among them were Eliza, the cheerful Countess of Northwall; Breya, the truth-seeking Guardian Angel; Tallia, the patient and intelligent Human goddess, and first wife of Galio, who gestated their firstborn in a golden egg. Claire, the once mighty Angel Goddess turned into a humble servant after a failed attack on Galio, timid yet with a sweet tooth. Goldy, the trading card enthusiast, and Dwarf Goddess, along with Draconia, the warrior Dragon Goddess and her daughter Cherry; Giantessa, the brawny Amazon Goddess with a soft heart; Elfinia, the elf goddess and once considered the strongest among the goddesses, who now spends her days making weapons and armor. Nya the loyal Cat-Folk Goddess and Goldenia the fun-loving Dog-Folk Goddess, Olivia, the ex-Vampire Goddess, betrayed by Tessera; The busybody Golem Goddess known as Amanda, Titania the regal Fae Goddess, and Orchalla, the blunt Orc Goddess who loves battle.

The Goddess Games were fast approaching. Preparations were well underway. And so, a new chapter begins, a tale of courage, wits, power, and cunning as 144 goddess applicants representing each race of the mortal realm compete for divine recognition, with Galio and his goddesses guiding them, shaping their futures in the Mortal Realm of Goddesses. The game has just begun.

"The what?!" Senna, Eliza's guard, and designated countess, was the first to protest. Grace, my half-angel half-cat god daughter, giggled from my lap hearing Senna's exclamation. Eliza, Tallia, Senna, and Chili were all having tea with me while Breya was out shopping.

"After completing the reconstruction of Northwall, Breya and I are planning to retreat into the monster forest for some quality time. You ladies have sufficiently equipped yourselves to handle things here. It's high time for a break where I am not expected to solve problems or perform miracles," I reasoned.

Eliza, nuzzling into me, voiced out in favor, "It's not an impossible task! All we have to do is make arrangements for the people coming for the games, both participants and spectators!"

Senna massaged her temples, blowing out a sigh, "That's easy for you to say since I'm the one handling the brunt. Not to mention, the upcoming clashes between participating races. This isn't a tea party, it's a diplomatic minefield."

I interrupted Senna's worries. "The other goddesses will supply their own guards with them. That way, any conflict between races can be handled on their own. Despite the complications, this event is necessary. Once the games wrap up, we will be embarking on a world tour, which should bring a semblance of calm. Hang in there, Senna."

Meanwhile, Eliza was tugging at my sleeve, "When will you be back from your break?" I patted her head affectionately.

"I'll definitely be back before the games commence. After all, I am one of the judges. But, I do think that the focus should primarily be on you ladies during this time. I don't intend to hog the limelight from the new potential goddesses!" I laughed, only to be interrupted by a pointed jab from Tallia.

"You're just excited for your grand prize proposal!" accused Tallia, lounging on the couch opposite me.

"What? Is it that ridiculous? I thought it was a good idea," I chuckled uncomfortably.

"To marry the victor of the games? Don't you think your harem is already extensive enough?" Tallia shot back quite riled up at my audacity.

"True, extremely so. But think about it, Tallia. I need to monitor the new goddesses closely. If one is close enough to be my wife, I'd be in the loop, wouldn't I? And there has to be some incentive for our participants. Let's not forget, the other goddesses approved my proposal too," I defended myself amid laughter.

"Yes, and you argued so much about it!" Tallia growled, but Eliza hopped up, and jumped over the coffee table to sit on Tallia's side between her and Claire who was enjoying an entire strawberry foam cake.

"Alright, teasing aside, let's get back to planning. We have a festival to organize and we all want to make sure the best candidates become goddesses, right?" Eliza chattered happily, sipping her tea.

"You're right, Eliza. And Senna, I know it's a difficult job. But if there's anyone who can handle it, it's you." I reassured Senna, focusing my attention back on her.

"Just promise you'll be there for the games, alright?" Tallia cut in, her gaze meeting mine.

"It's a promise," I replied, matching her stare. The room was filled with an air of anticipation. The upcoming games, though daunting, held the promise of exciting times ahead.

Just as the conversation about the games resumed, a figure appeared at the entrance. It was Breya, her silver hair shimmering as she stepped into the room. She held up several bags of sweets.

"Sorry, I'm late! I had a hard time picking out which sweets to get!" She announced, followed by groans and chuckles from the rest.

"Where's my marshmallow cake?" Claire exclaimed, her one large eye gleaming with anticipation as she reached for the bag Breya held.

"There are enough sweets for everyone. And remember, share!" Breya smirked, dumping the bags of sweets onto the table.

The day wrapped up with ease, the impending Goddess Games bringing a sense of camaraderie among us all. The thought that new goddesses might join our ranks, brought forth a myriad of emotions. Yet an unspoken agreement bound us - we were a family, regardless of what the future held.
