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

Chapter 132 Skylar, The Shy Nymph



Once we were done eating, the two of us went for an evening stroll through the marketplace. The sun had completely gone down, but it was still warm but not enough to make you sweat.

The market's vendors were mostly gone, only leaving a few food places and the odd person selling potions. I did notice that a few of the shop owners left as soon as we entered the market, and that made me sigh out loud. There were so many things to do, but so few for me. If there was only an efficient way to clone yourself… nope, five hundred lives didn't teach me that one.

"What's wrong? Do you not like the music?" Eliza asked, but the live music that was playing was actually really nice, and the singer was very good.

"No, I was just thinking about the people that packed up their shops as soon as we came here. It was clearly because they were selling fake items as real ones, and I thought that I might call them out like the other women. This just reminded me that I was going to help you set up a business license for people," I explained, watching the singer.

This girl was unlike the others, but it wasn't just her blue hair that was in pigtails in massive ringlets and green skin. There was something else about her that was almost magical. She wore a blue and white dress with a corset-like center that was laced with black ribbons, along with sparkling blue heels. I found it hard to look away from her.

"That's Skylar. She is one of the Fae, a Nymph. She is a bit strange, though, and isn't really like most nymphs. Sorry for switching topics, but she seems to have caught your eye," Eliza giggled as I watched and listened to Skylar sing.

That creature's name rang a bell, and that made me a lot more interested in this short, almost dolls looking girl. Nymphs were supposed to be creatures that enjoyed having sex, but maybe things were different for them in this world. All I knew was that there was almost an invisible force that kept me locked on the beautiful creature.

I closed my eyes and turned back to Eliza with a grin.

"She is very interesting, but I almost feel like my eyes get glued on her when I look at her," I said, and Eliza frowned.

"Really? Like more than you just want to look?" Eliza asked, and I nodded.

,m "Yes, it is like I am getting pulled into her," I explained but then frowned. "Is it not the same for you?"

"No, I think that she looks very pretty, but there is nothing that is drawing my gaze to Skylar. That could mean that she likes you, and that would be very strange. I guarantee if we try to go over and talk to her, she will more than likely run away," Eliza explained, and I continued to frown, lifting an eyebrow.

"Run away? Why?" I asked curiously.

"She is afraid of people, but she loves singing for them. She has also never been with a woman, according to everyone, which makes her even more strange. There are other nymphs in the city, but all of them are… much more sexually active and have many partners. Skylar doesn't, but I think that might be from being scared of people," Eliza explained.

"How is she able to sing out here then? Don't people come up to her to tell her how great of a singer she is?" I asked in confusion.

"They did, but people finally started to realize after the fifth or sixth time that she ran away that she was shy, so everyone knew to leave her be. If new people come into town, and come at this time, people will let them know in the Vine about it. We have also asked the guards to watch her make sure she always gets home safe. Skylar is a really nice person, just hard to get to know. I have only talked to her a few times," Eliza explained, and then the singing stopped.

Both Eliza and I turned to see Skylar slowly walking over to us, and I looked down at Eliza. She looked just as confused as I felt after what she had just told me.

"I assume this doesn't happen often?" I asked quietly, and Eliza nodded.

"No, not ever. I don't think I have ever seen her walk up to anyone. I am just going to wait over here while you two talk. I want to see what happens here!" Eliza exclaimed as she let go of my hand and slowly backed away from me.

I turned back to Skylar and almost jumped out of my skin.

"You have interesting eyes," Skylar said to me in a beautifully enchanting voice.

She was standing so close that our bodies were almost touching, and the little blue-haired woman was looking up at me. This was not what I was expecting from a person that was scared of people and tended to run away from them. This is what I would expect from Xieus.

"You have an interesting aura. I feel drawn to you and have trouble looking away by closing my eyes first. Your beauty is captivating," I said slowly, and Skylar's cheeks turned deep purple suddenly, and her eyes seemed to bulge in her face.

Suddenly, Skylar made a cute squeal, turned, and ran away, leaving me with a blank look on my face.

What just happened?

"Well, that went better than I had expected. I am still impressed that she was able to walk up to you!" Eliza said as she came back up beside me, taking one of my hands in hers.

"What just happened?" I asked, still trying to process things.

"She just told you that she liked you and then ran away. This is going to be big news all over town! And, I was here, so I get to tell everyone! Ha! This is going to be great! Just wait till I get home and tell Senna! She is going to laugh so hard!" Eliza giggled.
