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

Once O'lee made it to the end, she tossed the blocks off either side and turned back to watch me.

I was at the halfway point, but the wind had just gotten stronger. Still, I was doing it, and I would not be beaten!

"Are you okay?" O'lee called and then grinned.

"Perfectly fine! This breeze is good to keep you cool on such a… nice morning!" I grunted as I put one foot in front of the other, nearly three-quarters of the way to her.

O'lee nodded and turned to walk to the next part of the path. I was good now and crunched through the last steps with sweat starting to brim my forehead.

Once I made it, I tossed my blocks, and O'lee waved to follow her. I nodded and started to follow her up deeper into the mountains.

O'lee ran until we reached another open area like the last, but it was a much longer path this time. Maybe path was the wrong word since nothing was connected, and I couldn't even see the other side we were trying to reach.

"Jump up to top rock, then we climb down."

That was all the direction I got, and then O'lee ran and jumped to the first bit of path. She hit the ground running and then flung herself thirty feet to the following broken path.

I groaned, but I had asked for this; I just wasn't in as good of shape as I had assumed. I could have cheated and enhanced myself, but O'lee had used nothing of the sort, so it would be pointless.

I was just a bit rusty, and that's why I was doing this. I needed to get much stronger than this in the future if I wanted to be able to deal with my problems head-on.

As I landed, I ran forward and jumped into the air, my arms doing a slow windmill. I rolled forward to my feet and burst forward before flinging myself into the air again to the next stretch of path.

We ended up wrapping around the peak after about ten jumps. There was a massive plateau waiting for us that had been hidden from my view before, but I was glad to see it.

I landed just after O'lee, and she turned to me with a big smile. I could tell that she was impressed, but I was just glad that I survived it.

"You did well. Short break. Then climb down," O'lee said as she took a seat, and I grinned, walking over to join her.

"Take a break? What? You are tired?" I laughed but put my hands up when O'lee looked like she was going to get up. "I was just kidding! I am okay with a break, believe me!

The sun was just coming up in the east as I sat down beside O'lee, and she leaned over into me once I was settled. I tipped my head to rest on her and closed my eyes for a moment, taking a long deep breath of the fresh air.

The mountain wasn't that tall, so the air was still easy to breathe up here, but the view was something else.

"This is first time. Always come here alone. You surprised me. Very good," O'lee said without turning to me as I looked out over the plains and distant forest.

"Thank you for bringing me up here to show me. This is a beautiful place, and now I can see how you stay in such good shape!" I laughed, and O'lee nodded.

"Place is hard to get. Good thinking place. Very relaxing with you here now," O'lee said, still looking forward, and I nodded.

The two of us sat there for another half an hour before we both stood up. Now that I had seen the up, I was curious what the down was going to look like.

I could always just fly down, but that wasn't how she usually would get down. I had already made it this far, so there was no point in cheating now.

"So, how do you get down?" I asked, and O'lee looked at me with a shy smile.

"Can you fly me? I climb down but never fly," O'lee asked, and I grinned.

"I would love that! Oh, that reminds me!" I smiled and then asked, "Did I complete the task you gave me then?"

Instead of responding, O'lee leaned in and kissed me, slipping her hand behind my head to pull me in. I responded in kind, wrapping my arms around her firm body and pulling her over onto my lap.

O'lee was strong, but she was no more the five-three, so she fit nicely, sitting on my legs as we continued to kiss. I was surprised by her soft lips, and I hardly even noticed O'lee's tusks as we slowly kissed.

Once she had pulled back, O'lee's cheeks were purple, and she leaned into my chest, pressing her fingers to her lips. I kept my arms wrapped around her for a bit longer until O'lee looked up at me, no longer blushing.

"I would like to travel with you. You must meet my Mother. She is Clan Chief of the Riverwater Tribe," O'lee explained, and I nodded.

"Yes, I figured that you would be coming with me when I left. I still have some things to do, but I won't be heading to Four anytime soon. I am going to be going through the islands backward for now unless something pops up. The first place I want to go is to visit the Dwarfs on Eleven, but we will see what we do after that. I will talk to Gwenth more today to see if there are any faster modes of transportation. I don't want to keep jumping around if I don't have to, or it will take forever to complete anything," I explained, and O'lee nodded.

"If you help Morgana, the Lich, I have no job. Doesn't matter how long, as long as I am still alive. You can take me when you want, but no mating. That would be worst shame for me, but I would bear that if you wanted," O'lee explained, but I shook my head.

"No mating. That is easy enough, but I am going to have to look into some type of preventive measures," I said, and O'lee gave me a strange look, so I said, "Don't worry about it. Let's get going."

I slipped one arm under O'lee's knees and then stood up with her as she wrapped her arms around my neck. I gathered Pure Magic, and the golden wing grew from my back, making O'lee's eyes light up as she smiled broadly.

I didn't bother to ask if she was ready; I just ran and jumped out into the open air. The wind caught my wings, and the two of us soared out into the open air as I angled us to head east.

From what I could see, the mountain line stretched all the way up and down this side of the coast, but the range was quite broad, and we could just barely see the sea. I was curious to know if there might be anything hidden in the mountain ranges.

Whatever might be there, I planned on leaving all these secrets when I returned with Eliza. This world was going to take a very long time to explore, but at some point, I would have to bring her home.

I didn't really want to think about what would happen after that, but I planned on enjoying my time with her while I could. I was going to be alive for as long as I wanted with how much Pure Magic just floated around in the air.

We were coming up to the city of Northwall, so I started to lower us, making a loop around. I angled myself to come in for my landing from the city's east side, but landing with a person in my arms proved a lot harder than I had assumed.

I stumbled and tripped, but O'lee jumped from my arms, and I was able to catch myself before falling. O'lee landed with ease but was grinning up at me, and I could tell what she was thinking just from the smirk.

"You still need practice," O'lee said, and I rolled my eyes as the wings shattered from my back.

"Give me a break, I only got them last night, and this was my first time ever carrying anyone!" I complained as O'lee walked back over to me, placing both of her hands flat on my chest.

"Was fun. Tomorrow, you will show me how to train?" O'lee asked, looking up at me, and I nodded, leaning down to give her a kiss that she returned.

"Yes, tomorrow I will show you a different kind of training. Don't get me wrong, that was one hell of a workout, but it looks like you do the same thing every day, right?" I asked, and O'lee nodded.

"Workout is the same I always do," O'lee replied.

"Yeah, well, if you want to get stronger, then you are going to have to work out your different muscle groups. Tomorrow, I will show you, and we will get a good sweat on!" I laughed, and O'lee nodded as she pushed off me, talking my hand.

"Come, I want to go see Breya. I want to tell her about flying!" O'lee exclaimed with more excitement than usual, making me laugh as I nodded and then we headed back into the barracks.
