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

Chapter 116 Power Of The Goddesses



"While I do understand your feelings, Listenia, this is more than just about you, so mind your mother, and entertain her questions. I have kept you as my ward for the last two hundred years, but I think that you two should have a talk. She would like to meet Galio and give him a piece of her mind," Tallia explained, and Listenia barked out a laugh directed at her mother.

"Ha! Now, this I would like to see! Fine mother, what do you want to know about my teacher?" Listenia asked, crossing her arms over her breasts.

"Firstly, why are you calling the creature your teacher?!" Elfinia demanded.

"Because Galio is not only stronger than me but also much wiser than you. My life is linked with her, and even after one lesson, I have become much stronger," Listenia said, turning her nose up at her mother.

"This is so good! Thank you for letting me come, Tal! Ha! We should have snacks for this!" Goldy giggled but then went quiet when Elfinia glared at her.

"Stronger? Compared to what?" Elfinia demanded, but Listenia ignored her mother and looked at Tallia.

"Where is Galio? I heard that she was helping the women from the wall but then disappeared with you. Where is she now?" Listenia asked.

"I might have upset Galio. I sent the man back to the blasted lands to the south where he had asked," Tallia said, looking out a window.

"Upset him? How? Galio thinks the world of you. What could you have done that would have upset... him... I need to get used to this," Listenia said, and her words cut Tallia.

"Tallia can\'t remember him now, and she is being a troll to him. I mean, it\'s not like she is any different than normal, but this creature seems to remember a different person than she is now," Goldy explained, and Listenia narrowed her eyes on the human Goddess.

"You did seem different when you were in my shop before, but Galio has been changing everyone. I just assumed that you had a change in nature, but it seems that you have lost whatever that was. If Galio is in pain, then I will go to him," Listenia said, but Tallia put up her hand.

"I think that we should just leave him for now. I don\'t think that it is safe to go near him right now," Tallia said and then turned back to her portal.

"Where do you think that you are going, Goddess?!" Listenia snapped, making Tallia freeze, and slowly turned to glare at the Elf.

"Watch your tone with me, girl," Tallia growled, but Listenia didn\'t bat an eye.

"You think that you can just piss him off and walk away from the mess that you created? I think not. This is your responsibility. Galio is the only thing stopping our world from being destroyed right now, so you all are going to come with me. Seriously, you are all leaders of our people, and yet this is how you all act?" Listenia snapped.

"Hey! I am all for Galio! Don\'t lump me in with the rest!" Goldy complained.

"Good, then open a portal to where he is and let\'s go talk to him. These two can stay here and argue with each other since that is all they seem to know how to do," Listenia growled, and Elfinia put up a hand to stop her daughter.

Listenia gathered Pure Magic into her hand and then roughly slapped her mother\'s hand away.

"Don\'t you dare try to stop me or act like a mother. You might be the strongest woman in the world, but I stand beside the world\'s only and strongest man. If you wish to see why I say this, then you had best come along and keep your mouth shut, or this person will teach you a lesson that you sorely need," Listenia hissed as Elfinia rubbed her hand in shock.

That had actually hurt Elfinia, but what surprised her the most was how she had done it. Gathering the magic from the air was strictly a Goddess\'s ability, and she had not taught her daughter how to do this.

"Fine, I will come, but I can\'t guarantee that I will stay quiet!" Elfinia said in a low and dangerous voice, and her daughter gave her mother a curt nod, but Tallia was the one that spoke.

"Then I can\'t guarantee your safety, nor will either of us step in if you try to fight him."

"You say this like he could fight a goddess on equal terms!" Elfina snapped, and Tallia nodded.

"I couldn\'t have killed the monster that he did. Even though he used me to defeat the Undead Riftwalker, Galio fought on even terms with the creature with a single sword and his bare hand, wielding more magic than I would ever dream of. The spells that were cast were rarely spoken, and the ones that were could have been used to level a city," Tallia explained, and Elfinia narrowed her eyes.

"Why is a mortal able to wield the power of a Goddess?" Elfinia demanded.

"This is the power of the Goddesses\'?" Listenia asked, seeming confused.

"Yes, and I am quite interested in how you are able to gather and use it. I never taught you such a thing. Not only is it difficult to learn, but it is something that could spell the end of our world if it fell into the wrong hands," Elfinia explained.

"So that is why he made me link my life to his. Even after it happened, I still didn\'t fully understand what he was implying. Hearing this from you makes me have an entirely different level of respect for Galio," Listenia said, and Elfinia flinched back in surprise.

"You what?! That is what you meant by linking?! What is wrong with you, child?! Do you know what that means?!" Elfinia demanded, and Listenia nodded.

"Why do you think I am stupid, mother? While I might not have fully understood the implications of this, Galio told me this was the only way for me to learn this. If I reveal what I learn, then my life is forfeit. I know this, and I still agreed to it. Galio is worthy of my respect and so much more," Listenia declared, and her mother huffed.

"Enough of this talk! Let us go see this... Man, and I will make my own judgment of this creature!" Elfinia growled, turning to Tallia. "Open a portal, now!"
