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

Chapter 122 I Am Closed



"Maybe I will come to see him tomorrow if that is okay? I thought it was about time that I had another child," Goldy smiled, and Tallia nodded.

"Yes, that is a good idea. You will need to get close to him, but he does the mating ritual much differently than what you are used to," Tallia warned, and Goldy nodded.

"I heard about that, but besides the little countess, all the others have had amazing experiences. I might be little, but I am a Goddess, after all. I can handle it," Goldy smiled, but that made Tallia slightly curious, but she was a long way from that with Galio for now.

For now, Tallia would just have to try and be a little nicer to him. It was hard when Galio seemed to press all of her buttons at once.

"Well, this was fun, Tal. We should hang out like this more often! Things are starting to get exciting around you, and I am looking forward to when you get to come and visit me!" Goldy said with a warm smile as she opened a portal back to her halls of gold.

"Don't you ever get tired of looking at all that shiny gold everywhere? Isn't it hard on your eyes?" Tallia asked as Goldy walked through, and she opened her own portal.

"Do you ever get tired of breathing?" Goldy asked, and both portals closed.

The trip back to the city only took about thirty minutes with the enchanted horses. During that time, I had some good conversations with the women about the surrounding lands. I also got a good bit of info about some of the other islands.

There were also two Daywalkers in the group, so I let Daphne and Velma drink from my blood. After that, Daphne, the long-haired redhead with a petite frame, and Velma, a brunette with just above shoulder-length hair and boxy glasses, were glued to my sides.

Once we were back to the Northwall City Gates, the girls unloaded themselves with me. Steph, who decided to drive the cart, took the wagon away, leaving me with the girls at the gate.

"What are all your plans now? Do you all have places to stay?" I asked, both my hands held by the Daywalkers.

"Yes, if we don't have places to stay, there are many extra bunks in the barracks, but Everyone in this city is remarkably friendly. With the Vine, it is pretty easy for us to find places to sleep," Daphne explained, and Velma nodded.

"You know, if you were looking for a place to sleep, I think that there might be room in the bed we are sharing!" Velma said with a cute smile as she adjusted her glasses.

"Oh, I am sure that there is, but I do already have plans for this evening and tonight. I will have to ask you, girls, to wait until after the stuff with the walls is done. Once that monster is taken care of, I should have a day or two before I leave," I explained.

"Well, you are going to need people to help you along the way. Since you cleared the walls, there are a lot of women that are out of a job. Not that we really liked fighting almost non-stop, but now most of us aren't really sure what we can do," Daphne said, and I nodded.

With everything that was going on, I hadn't really thought about what these girls were going to do now.

"You don't want to go home?" I asked, but both girls shook their heads.

"This place is home. We are half-bloods, so we are barely liked by our own kind. The human island is the only one that is safe for us to live without worry," Velma said, looking down.

That was sad, and it really ground my gears. Nothing worse than not being able to call the place that you were born home.

"Well, we will see what the future brings. I might need some help on the ship that I am going to have to buy or build. There will be other projects that will require more than just my magic. I will be looking for help, so I will keep you girls in mind," I said, and the girls both let go of my hands.

The two of them came together to stand in front of me with bright smiles.

"If you ever need help with a mystery, let us know! We are pretty good at sniffing out trouble! Now that we look like normal humans, we will be able to fit in better!" Daphne cheered, and Velma sighed.

"Sometimes I think that you are better at finding the trouble than solving it," Velma groaned, and Daphne turned and grinned at her.

"That is what you are for, silly!" Daphne said and then kissed Velma.

Then they didn't stop.

"Well, I guess I will see the two of you around!" I said, and then two waved at me, not stopping the face-sucking.

That was more than interesting and looked like a lot of fun, but the detective part might be very helpful. I was going to need help rooting out the rest of the Blood Witches. Having people like them would be helpful in the future.

I said a few more goodbyes to the rest of the women and started to walk north up the main road.

The sun was starting to get lower in the sky, and in another hour, it would be almost gone for the day. The wall blocked it from where I was, but I could judge from where the shadow of the wall was. That line was in place with Listenia's shop, so I decided to drop by quickly and see how she was.

I tried to open the door, but it was locked.

"I am closed!" Listenia shouted from behind the door.

"Like, how closed? Do you think that you might be able to open for just a little wee bit?" I asked, and I stood back as I heard Listenia come over and unlock the door.

I waited, but the door didn't open. I walked up and opened the door, but the shop was empty.
