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

I stepped through the portal, and it closed behind me as I stood before the ruined temple. The same way Morgana must have for five hundred years.

I sat down on the steps and closed my eyes. My heart was still pounding from the exchange with Tallia.

I couldn't understand the reason that this higher power had for making this contingency, but it burned me fiercely. I wanted to be mad at everything and blame my problems on anyone but myself right now. Coming to the quiet was helping, but I was trying to channel my pain and anger in the right direction.

[How are you doing?] Xieus asked.

"I am fine, just trying to push myself past this," I said.

[Why do you let this bother you so much? Just go hit something like you normally do. Work yourself up into a fury and get rid of all the built-up pain you have.] Xieus suggested, and I nodded.

"That is the plan, but I am just out of sorts right now. I am just trying to figure out what to do about Tallia. I can't let it keep bothering me like this," I said, opening my eyes.

[Then don't. It is out of your control, and thinking it to death isn't going to bring back her memories or yours. You should just do what you know you have to do.] Xieus explained.

"Yeah, I know. Take out the Riftwalker," I said, but then Xieus appeared in a puff of blue smoke, looking sexy as ever.

"Yes, but you already know that you have to do that. Right now, you are in no shape to be dealing with people. Tallia has never been someone that you have known in this life. The fact that you got the chance to see how nice she can become should be counted as a blessing. Imagine if she would have acted this way from the beginning?" Xieus asked, and that made me smile.

"You have more than a point there, and you are right. There is nothing I can do about her not remembering, and I don't actually remember anything. What I have is a feeling, so I will just go with it and pretend like she is just another Goddess. Just one that I want to get to know better," I said, pushing off my knees to stand back up.

"That is a good plan; now go hit something. Can't you do anything about that seal? None of that Positive Energy stuff works on it?" Xieus asked, and I shook my head.

"There were people used as sacrifices, so the spell is sealed. They must have used hundreds of people over the circle when casting. I wish that I could do something, but maybe I will try to hit it with a few things to see if I can get anything from it. Sometimes I get ideas from seeing the way things react," I said, and Xieus reached a hand to me that I took.

I pulled her over into my arms, giving her a short kiss but feeding her a big pouch of my Life Force. This made Xieus cough as she pulled back, but she grinned up at me.

"You just are filled with every energy ever known, and ones unknown! What next? Are you going to start making monsters into people?" Xieus asked, and I paused to think about it.

"There are spells for that; you can use plain old magic for that. I could also turn you into an animal, but that is not quite the same kind. Anyways, get in so I can start blowing things up, I said, and Xieus grinned and gave me an electrical kiss that made my head spin before exploding into blue smoke.

I damn near fell over and then took in a deep breath of the blue smoke and hacked up a lung coughing.

[Sorry! That is blue sulfur and would probably kill a normal person! Eek! Sorry!] Xieus cried in my mind, but I just waved at the air as the smoke dissipated.

"Don't worry about it. Just make sure that you aren't doing that near the girls," I said after spitting out some blue hock from the back of my throat.

The stuff had covered my mouth and tasted like burning shit. I summoned a stream of water, rinsed out my mouth, and spit a few more times.

"Alright, now that I have got that out of the way," I said, and my golden wings burst from my back as I rose into the air.

I was feeling better now after talking with Xieus, even though she had almost committed manslaughter. I should have known better, but that kiss must have had some of her succubus powers packed into it.

I flew up and looked down at the massive red glowing circle that was completely uncovered. I had considered recovering it, but my knowledge was that it wasn't required, but the undead Riftwalker was just doing its duty. Even if it was alive, it would be much smaller than the thing that was coming out of here.

I hovered fifty feet in the air and sucked in magic like I had in the fights with the undead, but this time I converted it into Dark Magic. I wrapped it around my right fist, and my arms then solidified into elegant black armor.

This was called Praetors Armor, and it was a tricky spell to apply in combat. To make it strong, you needed to keep applying it at least five times and with more power each time. This was not something you could do while trying to fight because the armor only worked once. If you got hit in the arm or you hit something, it would discharge the energy into that thing.

For my purposes, I just needed to charge it up at my leisure, but I forced it to come as fast as I could. I want to see how long it would take to use it in battle. Not everyone had the luxury of wings to pull range on a target, so this was a viable spell for me.
